  • Caller ID setup SMS spam

    I up my Caller ID number. Then skype send me the verify code. Can somebody tell me how can I stop Skype to keep sending me the same SMS with my call id verification 
    code to my mobile over and over?. 
    I'm out of the country and I paying roaming for each message. 
    I cannot find an skype support email too ask this question.
    Thank you

    I am disapointed that Skype who's been arround the longest has not resolved that issue. Someone tell Skype to forward confirmation number to email or simply autocall confirmation number back to the ID'eed phone.  Not all phones can take SMS text you Know?

    Issue: Caller ID setup for a LAND LINE, which can NOT receive a mobile SMS text to verify it. 
    The office phone (land line) I need to setup as the Caller ID for outbound Skype calls is not able to receive mobile text messages your automated verification system is sending to verify it.  I do recall there was a process in place that the verification system would actually call the phone number and I would then input a code provided from Skype's Verification page.  
    Thank you in advance.

    I just checked this for myself.  Unfortunately, there is no option for Skype to use a landline number for the Caller ID with a Skype account.  You can use an Online Number from certain countries (i.e., USA and UK are two countries where an Online Number can be used for Caller ID) or a mobile phone. 
    I have been on Skype for over 4 years, and have never seen the option to use a landline number for Caller ID with a Skype account.  It may have been in place further in the past, but not anymore.

  • Handoff: SMS sometimes do not arrive when WLAN active

    Hi,
    I use Handoff with 1 iPhone 5S, 1 iPad Air, 1 Mac Mini and 1 MacBook Pro. In general, it works. Since a while, however, I notice delays in receiving SMS messages: Messages arrive at different times on each device; sometimes, I get it first on my Mac Mini, other times, it first appears on the iPhone. The difference between the delivery can be up to a minute. All devices are on the same WLAN and in close proximity. Apart from the Mac Mini, all other devices are also used at my office network.
    Today, I was completely puzzled when I tried to login to my e-banking, waiting for a SMS to arrive. Nothing happened. I tried again with the same result. Then I tried with another bank with no result as well. After I disconnected my iPhone from the WLAN, all messages arrived on all devices immediately. - This was very surprising  to me as I understood that Handoff requires the devices be on the same network and connected via Bluetooth. Disconnecting the iPhone from the WLAN would not fulfil the requirement but this made the SMS messages to arrive.
    Any ideas what causes SMS messages to not be delivered?
    My iOS devices are on 8.1.1, my OS X computers on 10.10.1

    if you have issues with iMessage you can turn it off in settings->message then it will not try
    sending the messages as data rather then as a normal sms

  • Blackberry 8520 I can not call or write sms

    I can not call or write sms, mobile network signal and my phone shows sim card is fine in another phone works

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Is it possible that your BB remains locked to another carrier? If so, that would explain this behavior...refer:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/General-BlackBerry-Functions-and/Unlocking-your-BlackBerry-Gu...
    Otherwise, your SIM could be incompatible with your BB...for which you would need to talk to your SIM provider.
    Good luck!

  • Lync 2013 external to internal IM is slow or messages do not arrive

    Hi,
    I'm building a Lync 2013 setup on Windows Server 2012. Internal Lync 2013 standard server with Lync 2013 edge server in a DMZ. No federation.
    Internally al users are able to chat, audio/video and conferance.
    My problem is that external users are able to sign in and start a chat with an internal user but it looks like communication is only working in one way.
    Example:
    User 1 is external;
    User 2 is internal;
    User 1 starts IM with user 2 and says "hi"
    User 2 receives the IM and accepts and is seeing the "Hi" messages from user 1.
    User 2 reply's with "Hi" back and that messages does not arrive at user 2. Some time's not at all, some times after a minute or 2.
    When user 1 is receiving the reply user 2 still see's the rotating dot's that the message is beeing send. and after a while user 2 receives:  "This message may not have been sent to User1
    because there was no response from the server."
    The situation seems to occures only from internally to externally and also with both users externally. I cannot see any error's in the event logs of the Internal or Edge server. De debugging tools is showing me error's like:
    Text: Message or one of its headers caused SIP transaction processing error
    Result-Code: 0xc3e93f5b SIPPROXY_E_TRANSACTION_TIMEOUT
    Text: Message was discarded by the application
    Result-Code: 0xc3e93ec6 SIP_E_AUTH_CANNOT_CHALLENGE
    Audio/video requests are also arriving at the other user but are unable to establish a connection.
    I can't really figure out what is going wrong. Certificates are correct, i think firewall rules are in place otherwise i have no communication at all i'm guessing. Routes also seem ok.
    Some help would be great
    Regards
    Pascal

    Hi,
    The internal user Lynctest is sending a message to pslijkerman who is connected externally.
    User pslijkerman receives the messages but the lynctest user keeps seeing rotating dots (processing message or something) after 1 minute or so the following messages is displayed in the Lync Im screen for user lynctest.
    ======
    This message may not have been sent to Pascal Slijkerman because there was no response from the server.
    ======
    This is some logging from the internal lync server.

    Hi experts,

  • The replacement shipment of my iPod 1st generation did not arrive and I can not trace the shipment. Who can I contact?

    I received an email that the replacement of my IPOD NANO was shipped. It was supposde to arrive at my address in France within two working days. Now, we are 4 weeks later and the shipment has still not arrived. There is a tracking number in the email but it does not have a link. I do not know which express delivery service is supposed to deliver. How can I verify the shipment? Who can I contact for help to track the delivery or resend the replacement product?

    Thanks for the advice. I contacted the expresslane service and have to admit that it works very well. They call you back immediately! I have contacted them already three times: unfortunately, the first person gave me a wrong tracking information, the second person was "technical" and asked me to call during business hours. Number 3 was helpful and told me that the shipping by French postal service might take 5-6 weeks (and not the 2 days as announced in the e-mail I had received). So, I still have to wait and contact them again if the replacement iPod does not arrive in the coming days ... We will see!

  • Setup could not detect any Sound Blaster Audigy card on your system

    Hi from Barcelona!
    I've a Soun Blaster Audigy card (Model: SB0090)
    I tried to install the Audigy software and drivers from the original product CD but Setup was unable to find Augigy hardware and halted the installation!
    "Setup could not detect any Sound Blaster card on your system. Please ensure that your Sound Blaster hardware is properly installed before running this Setup program"
    By the way. Manually the sound drivers can be installed working only front speakers of the 5. Creative system
    I tried a clean installation of Windows XP and Windows 2000 PRO (reformatted the hard dri've) but Audigy install CD still could not find Audigy hardware.
    I've changed the card to a different PCI slot with the same results!!! Damaged?
    What is happening? I need a solution!! Many users have this problem to with other Sound Blaster cards and models...

    ADSLNEW wrote:
    It seems to be an important BUG of Creative Sound Blaster Audigy cards related with EEPROM!!!
    Yes, indeed, that is my theory as well. After much ****hing and on-line research, it seems that this problem has been around since 2002. From Creative Labs point of view, it appears they view this as "pilot error" -- the user has installed the card in a system that is not fully compliant with the latest standards -- specifically Microsofts ACPI (configuration and power management). A wide variety of configurations and/or actions seem to cause the PCI subsystem ID in the Audigy EEPROM to be erroneously overwritten -- including certain older motherboards, certain older PCI cards, and perhaps other actions.
    Once the subsystem ID in the EEPROM is overwritten and has garbage information, many or all of the Creative applications cease working and various sound problems can arise. Attempts to reinstall the driver or update to the latest driver consistently fail becuase of the dreaded "Setup could not detect any Sound Blaster Audigy card in your system..." error message.
    There appear to be four fixes:
    ) Get a replacement Audigy card from Creative, but <EM>only</EM> after you perform their prescribed troubleshooting steps to prove that the card is indeed the source of the problem. Apparently, the steps include installing the card in another PC. Apparently, Creative in Europe is more willing to replace your card than Creative in the US. It's up to Creative Labs whether or not they issue you an RMA ("Return Material Authorization").
    However, this fix will fail if the root causes of the EEPROM error are not corrected. Apparently, Creative Tech Support isn't always a foolproof source of guidance, so the burden is on you. The root cause MUST be corrected before the new card is installed, or the same problem will happen all over again. Eliminating the root cause may involve replacing your motherboard, replacing other PCI cards, or manual configuration (disabling ACPI).
    2) Reprogramming the EEPROM. This is for advanced PC owners only, because it involves desoldering the EEPROM, programming it, and resoldering (and even lifting some pins to prevent reprogramming). There are instructions on how to do this posted in the German Creative Labs discussion board, by a Russian (!). I have links for those who are interested.
    3) Removing the Creative drivers and software (using Clean Sweep procedures and third party utilities), updating again using Windows XP SP2, then physically moving the card to different PCI slots (multiple times if necessary), until ACPI Bios writes the proper information into the EEPROM. You can then reload the drivers.
    Again, the root causes of the problem must be removed or your fix will only be temporary (a day or two). This solution also seems to be very dependent on the specifics of your system (motherboard, PCI cards, etc.).
    4) Some people have had success in by-passing the step in the driver installation process where they check for the Audigy card subsystem ID, using a utility called CTZAPxx on the installation CD. Then then manually install each of the applications they need to use.
    5) Use the open source driver from the kX Project (http://kxproject.lugosoft.com/index.php). This driver (and associated utilities) does not depend on the detailed configuration of the card (i.e. they don't check subsystem ID) and appear to work fine even with cards with corrupted EEPROM.
    This driver is aimed primarily at computer music applications, and opens up the on-card signal processing capabilities. The downside is that the Audigy 2 ZS does not have all of it's capabilities supported <EM>yet </EM>(e.g. Dolby Digital decoding, S/PIF passthrough, possibly some game sound features, THX, 24-bit recording, support for Hyperthreading CPUs, etc.). But scanning over the discussion boards, the user community seems to be MUCH happier with the performance and support associated with these drivers than with Creative's.
    This is the direction I'm going. I'm not a big gamer and I don't really care about the latest in home theater audio performance. Basic 5. surround sound is all I care about, and I'm much more interested in computer music capabilities.
    I have also lost faith in Creative Labs as a vendor to provide the support I want and need going forward. Just imagine if the Creative Labs were running the Space Shuttle program :smileysurprised:.

  • Windows 8 setup does not prompt for license key, then fails, on hp envy notebook

    Hi,
    I am trying to install Windows 8 pro on an hp envy dv7 notebook, that came with a Windows 8 home pre-installed.
    I tried by running the setup from the CD inserted while Windows was running, but setup complained that no license key matched the CD and faled. Strange enough,
    setup did not prompt for any license key!
    I tried the setup on another, older PC, there it did prompt for license key and setup ended well. At least it was not the CD.
    Then I retried booting from setup CD, it loaded files, then started the setup without promptiing for any license key, and failed again.
    Then I tried with a Windows 7 CD, same behavior, not prompting for license key and fail to setup.
    Then I "repaired" Windows by booting from CD and reformatting the hard drive, dropping all Windows partitions, then restart setup from CD, but it still behaved the same way: not prompting for license key, and failing to setup.
    I called the HP support, and they answered that it was a problem for Microsoft (what a good support, the only place where the problem occurs is the hp computer, but let the Customer call Microsoft instead).
    So here I am, did any of you use an hp computer, and succeeded in installing Windows 8 PRO NFR from Technet plus on it?
    Regards

    Is it a Chinese Editon preinstalled in HP notebook?
    Windows 8 preinstall machine includes a license key in system firmware. So Windows 8 setup will use this key rather than pop up product key input text pop. It is a Microsoft by design issue. So no good mathod to workaround this problem.
