Bt want old home hub back and i dont have it anymo...
Hi hope some one can help me with this. My old home hub got broken and I called bt on Sun 6th May for a new one. I received the new one on Tues 8th May.
A week later I received a letter from Bt informing me to return the old home hub back for recycling within two weeks or I may be charged for it.
My problem is that I wasnt told of this on the phone ( was told replacement hub would be free) and there was nothing in package the new hub came in either. I no longer have the old one as i have thrown in out.
I called bt and got nowhere. I was passed to many different people and left on hold many times. After 45mins of this I hung up. Now today I received a frrepost bag from BT to return the old hub.
Does anyone know how much I will be charged or is it a case of waiting till next bill comes in?
Hi bambieyes and welcome
Hmm, IMHO BT should of told you this at the time you reported it
I'd say they now ask for the old one to be returned to prevent fraudulent 'claims' - NOT saying this is you, just a general example. Some may state theirs is broken, then sell it on a well known Internet auction site...
Anyway, ask the mods to see what they can do for you. You need to fill out this form - http://bt.custhelp.com/app/contact_email/c/4951

i want to create an appleid and i dont have credit card. the instruction that you discribe at the top is not working in itune 11.1.3 and iphone 5s. what should i do
We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
You need to follow, exactly, the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating an account (the instructions won't work with existing accounts) - I've just tried it and I got the 'none' option.
e.g. on my computer's iTunes I logged out of my existing account, found a free app in the store and clicked on its free 'price' :
I then clicked on 'create Apple id' on the popup :
Agreed to the terms, filled in my details, and got the 'none' option on the payments screen : -

my ipod screen is stuck on x-ray mode and i have no idea how it got that way and i dont know how to change it back.

When i click import, then open external hard drive the bookmarks dont show. If i open the external drive via 'start/computer' i can see them in it ok,.
Yes, that is a JSON backup, so you need to remove the .html file extension and add a .json file extension instead.<br />
If Windows is stubborn and doesn't want to change the file type but merely changes the name to bookmarks.json.html then try to add quotes around the name when renaming or (temporarily) disable hiding the file extension.

Note that restoring a JSON backup will replace the current bookmarks, so you lose any bookmarks that aren't in the backup unless you first export the bookmarks to an HTML file.<br />
Then you can import that file after you've restored the JSON backup.

I had all my old home video's and super 8 movies converted to DVD's. Since I will move back to Europe I asked the company to convert them to PAl system. I just got all the DVD's for a lot of money, but I can not play any of them on my MAC book.(I think that is because they were burned on zone 1 dvd's and my lap top works with zone 2.
I wonder how I can make them work on my macbook..? I intended to start editing those movies so I need to be able to play them on my mac. Is there a way to copy them to zone 2 DVD's and or to zone 0 dvd's and where do I get those free zone or zone 1 recordable dvd's?
ireen 1 min agoWelcome to the Apple Community.
The Apple TV 2 will play all the content in your iTunes library that your Apple TV 1 does. It can no longer sync any of it but can stream it all just as the older model did. Airplay is a different feature that lets you stream from an iPad/iPhone, the Apple TV 2 has Airplay the first didn't.
You can still sort and search content by genre, it still marks content watched and unwatched and mainly still lets you organise much as the Apple TV 1 did, with one exception. It doesn't do nested folders, so the ability to tag a movie as a show (ie James Bond) and have all the associated movies in a James bond folder has gone and it lists all these movies individually.
It has a similar situation with TV shows. It will put all TV shows in a series in a folder as the older one did, but the new one lists each series separately whereas the older model would put all the series in one folder.
Not nesting folders is a bit of a pain with large libraries and whilst I don't like it, it's more or less the only compromise I have to make and of course I get additional features too. -
Home Hub 3 and 4 Connections Limit ?
Hi All i am very much hoping there is someone expert on issues such as number of connections allowed and home hub interconnecting.
First things first. I had a home hub 3 and it kept on dropping the signal. it went on for several months and many calls to Bangladesh. Very often the problem was fixed and all reunning perfect ...... for a few days sometimes even a week or so. Then it was back to This page cannot be displayed or 'No Internet' in the wifi connection window.
At the beginning the hub would show fault ie the red light would start to flash. I also had a terible phone line with a lot of crackle. One of the 'remote fixes' seemed to cure this and from then on the blue light was always on and for a while the signal remained ok. then it bagan to drop intermittently.
i also have a connection to a remote part of the garden and run a 40 meter Cat 5 cable from a port on the new homehub4 up to the homehub 3 at the other end. When i connect this, the home hub3 in the garden receives Internet no porblem but i loose it at the main hub. no faults are reported and the signal is said to be excellent and 'Internet Access ' is usually displayed.
i can often get the first page but then clicking any links gives a page with cannot connect to this page please check the name etc. if i unplug the lead going down the garden to the homehub3 I get ful connection back.
I think there is more than one problem but for now i just want to fix this bandwidth sharing issue. Surely i should not loose connection as soon as i connect to a slave hub down the garden? it does come and go after then and i will receive the odd batch of email but it is disconnected 80% of the time.
Anyone any idea what sort of a problem this is? if it is bandwidth, can i set a limit on how much will go the the slave homehub3? or can i set priority to the homehub4? or even to a specific IP address ie my laptop?
both hubs use dhcp so i did wonder if there was conflict of IP addresses but i dont see how this can be because my connection comes and goes whereas theremote homehub3 stays perfect connection for skype etc.
Another very interesting aspect was that when i would drop out on the new hub, i could connect to BT WiFi with Fon and got a connection no problem. Yet that connection must be supplied by my homehub4 so how can it supply me through wifi with fon no problem but not a direct wifi connection when i an literally 2 feet from the router?
that element has now vanished because the Bangladesh team finally decided it was the new router and sent an engineer to test it. he concluded it was the router and changed it for one he had with him butthis one does not give any signal for btwifi with fon so I am scr___d !
absolutely anything appreciated. I was an IT professional for many years so dont be shy to use technical terms.
Thanks in advance
Solved!

BT Home Hub 3 and Android 4.2.1 WI-FI issue
Hi, i'm seeing a really annoying issue on my nexus 4 running android 4.2.1. The wireless works perfectly when i am connected at home to the HH3. Everytime i leave the house and go out of the home hubs range, when i return, the BT HH3 shows as "Not in range" even when standing right next to it.
As soon i toggle Wi-Fi off then back on on the nexus 4 it connects instantly with a signal strength of excellent. The hh3 is set to channel 13 and looks to be not conflicting with another router on wifi analyser.
If anyone has seen anything similar on another android device when using a HH3 i would appreciate any feedback or potential fixes.I have a HTC Desire with Android 2.1, and a home hub 1, and have no problems. Do you have another router you can try, or perhaps use as an extra wireless access point?
I do know that people seem to have problems with the HH3, for some reason, but I cannot see why it should be an issue with an Andriod device, as they normally remember wireless settings.
Channel 13 can cause issues with some devices.

I just got iphone 5c and i am not happy with it. It uses to much data and i don't even know how. I can't get the ringtones i want for my contacts.I got it on my free upgrade but i want to take it back and get something else but where i got it they say i can't because i don't have the earbuds and i have serches or them. now i am suck with a phone i don't like at all until my next upgrade. this is very dishearten
1. If you are this unhappy with that phone, and the lost earbuds is the only thing stopping you from taking it back, why do not just buy some earbuds. That way you can get rid of that phone. It all depend upon how much you want to get rid of that phone.
2. Yet if you are stuck with that iPhone, here is something might help you to control the data usage. By design, iPhones do turn off WiFi when they go dormant. So if a download is in progress and so forth when the phone goes dormant, it will switch to use cellular data, if this setting is left on. Therefore, from multi-sources I have learned that if you keep your iPhone connected to a power source, then it will stay connected to the available WiFi. -

I gave my old MacBook Pro away and no longer have access to it. I didn't think to deauthorize it first. I DO NOT want it to have access to all music in my iCloud or any music that may have been downloaded sinceI gave away the computer. It now belongs to my teenage daughter,who has since been in my WI-FI area and knows that code. I had EVERYTHING removed from the computer before I gave it to her (long story), but since I hadn't deauthorized the Mac,I'm assuming even without the itunes password the iCloud material would had loaded onto her computer.My iCloud had somehow included personal voice mails under Unknown Artist that I did not want on there or shared. How can I deauthorize the Mac Laptop without having the machine available to do it on? Change the iTunes/iCloud password? I should now have my desktop computer, new PC (Aspire) laptop,Ipod Touch, and if possible my Evo 3D as well as my boyfriend's Samsung smartphone being able to access the iCloud account/library--whatever it is called. HELP
Thanks, I appreciate the help. I think this is one of the problems Apple is creating by changing the OS so often. I had fomer colleagues at [a major aerospace contractor] who told me that so many original files were ultimately lost because of the deadly change in the "Save As" operation that they are now afraid of every OS update. Apple has badly damaged their support base with that very prominent company (they won't update now until they've fully examined and understand changes in the pre-conditioned nature of OS computer functions), and they are a whole lot less enthaled with Mac-related equipment/software. Can't blame them, I too used orginal files that way (as easy-to-use templates), and lost some important files before I realized what was happening (to late to revert). Companies should not have to retrain employees each time an OS gets an update, it's can be very expensive several different ways. They learned a painful lesson with that one. And because I'm now retired and don't use multiple devices, I need iCloud like I need a hole in the head... but I'm told there's no way to keep Apple out of my computer. Fortunately, because of major problems when initially installing Mountain Lion, one hold-over of the hardware/software damage I experienced was that iCloud can no longer access my computer even though everything else is working fine again. That was the only "good luck" I had as a result of that expensive nightmare.

Hey all im new to bt broadband but have a quick query to ask of anyone who can help.
I live in an area where broadband speeds arent great tbh, when i lived at my parents the download speeds would never go above 1.3 mbps but i assumed that was cos they had a basic bb package with aol. Never the less though even with the poor transfer rates i almost never had a problem with lag when playing games online on my ps3( cod:black ops mainly).
I have now recently moved out and decided to get my bb through bt as they said that they can give my 10mbps for my area although they was honest and said the reality of the speed would more be in the region 0f 6 mbps but this was still very satisfactory for me.
At the mo im only getting 2mbps but im aware it can take up to 10days of my line being monitered at the exchange ( which happens to be a 10 min walk tops from the house) before they increase the speed. This im also fine with but heres my problem. At mum and dads i would almost never get lag at all even with my transfer rates being so low but now im running my wireless off the new home hub 3 and with a slightly better transfer rate than my parents house ive noticed online gaming very laggy indeed. Ive tried port forwarding but that still didnt make a difference.
Can any body else shed some light as to what could be the cause?
Thanks for reading all of the above i know theres quite a bit to read through lolHi arnie30uk, as Darren said gaming and wireless is never gonna be great. Have you thought about trying one of the units that use your home power cables e.g.
http://www.google.co.uk/#sclient=psy&hl=en&source=hp&q=network+through+power+outlet&aq=1&aqi=g5&aql=...
Only thing you need to be aware of with most of these is that both units need to be on the same circuit i.e if you have down stairs sockets on one fuse and the upstairs on another then they may not work. -
Have two mail accounts and i want to keep them separate but want to EASILY switch back and forth from the main screen instead of going through, Settings, Mail, and selecting account. Major pain the butt. This has been a request from Apple users for many years. it's great you can now combine all emails into one, but some people want them kept separate and have separate icons on the main page. They could easily do this by having one "MAIL" account as white and another red. Or put MAIL 1 and MAIL 2. Or an actual label that the mail accounts are called on the ICONS!!

...I could switch back and forth between accounts while in the mailbox, with one button. I think that is what you are referring to? Whoever said it's just a simple switching - you obviously haven't had the pleasure of using an Android device. It's not that quick to go back and forth - definitely not efficient...
Not that it matters a lot, Android vs iPhone interface is largely a matter of personal preference and what you know... I'm not sure which one you're saying is not efficient...
In any event...
I currently have two email accounts setup. My iPhone main page Mailbox settings reads:
Mailboxes
Inboxes
All Inboxes
Gmail
[email protected]
Accounts
Gmail
[email protected]
I wish there an efficient way to move back and forth while in the "Inbox" between accounts. Also, Why does one gmail account show as "Gmail" and another as the actually address?
The names are based on the names you gave the accounts when you set them up.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap the account you want to re-name. Go to the "Description" field and put in what ever you want.
Second, there is no way to quickly choose a bunch of emails to delete. I have to manually go into each one and move it to the Trash folder.
If you tap the edit button in the upper right while in mail, you can select multiple items to move, delete or mark (flag).
I don't want any of the condescending remarks, that I've read here and in other forums. I'm honestly looking for a solution, which I think you are too! One thing I realized is that iPhone users in these forums are really defensive and quick to say "that's how it is, live with it, if you don't like it go away" Um...the only thing that tells me is you are pretty bitter and have kept telling yourself that, to force yourself to like your device. I prefer to express my issues, and find solutions. There is ALWAYS a solution...
I think what you will find is that many people here, myself included, tend to get a bit short with people who start off with attacks or whining about how something has been asked for for years and should be easy, rant about things that have already been beaten to death multiple times in the forums, talk about how much better Android or BB are at something (really... if it's that much better, why did they buy an iPhone to begin with?), etc., or continue to ask questions that could easily be answered with a simple search, or even just by looking back at the last dozen posts to the forum, half of which probably asked the EXACT SAME question.
I don't think any of us go out of our way to be rude or uncivil. That said, attacking the people who are attempting to help you is much more likely to generate a response of 'if you don't like it, go away', than it is to generate something that will be truly helpful. -
i have reset my password and i dont have wifi to connect to my ipod and activate the steps in the i cloud process, now i want to know that will all my videos , photos and music will lost if i connect to my computer if storage and backup is in off mode
If iCloud Backup is set to Off in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, it means that your iPod will not automatically back up to iCloud, but will automatically back up to your computer when you sync. The only way you would risk losing data is if you have never synced with iTunes before. If that's the case, you have to take special precautions to avoid losing data, as outlined in this user tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141.
