Can anyone help me with a 3 week old Infinity Conn...

Hi
Let me get it out there, I'm bored of BT, I'm bored of BT India and I'm bored of customer services moving you round to someone else and lying to you about what they said.  You find someone who says they want to help, then you call them back and they deny even talking to you for example.  BT India all seem good guys, but they just say the same thing.  I had one bloke last night tell me that the picture on the new Infinity purchase page of BT.com was a HH2 and if that if I couldn't see it, I was looking at the wrong thing. I left BT in 2007, when I'd had enough of poor service, slow speed and being forced to use a Netgear G at my own cost - but I digress
I had Infinity installed 3 weeks ago.  The Engineer was great.  He installed new cable from the pole, rejigged my wiring internally, tested it all, stayed for ages and made sure ALL of my equipment connected, yes Desktop, 3 lappies, XBox even making sure Sky was showing 'connected' - top bloke.  When he left, he had his laptop and my laptop, both top end machines with N cards were showing 38MB's speed, the Ipad which gets a bad press because they don't utilise the N connection was getting 20MB and all my other machines got 18-20MB on G cards - which I was told was because of G (I still don't know this to be true - but seemed reasonable) - I even had a demo of 4 machines actively streaming iplayer to give me the WOW factor
So, here we are today.  I've given 6 hours to BT India over 4 days.  We've tested everything twice, changed and swapped wifi adapters, moved the HH2 around the house, connected by wire, not by wire, changed through ALL the channels, TWICE, amended the box settings, run speedster and speedtest.net and all we've proved is that the most I get is 20MB on wire, BUT this only then transfers to 10MB at best on any device.  This is on a isolated device, tried at different times of the day etc etc.
The best quote I've had from BT India, was - 20MB, that's not bad is it.  Well it's not bad, but I'm paying for 40MB and I'd like to give WIFI a bash if that's ok with you mate
I get connected to a lady in the 'disconnections' team Monday because BT India was unable to help me further.  She looked at her system and concluded that the tick was in the wrong box her end.  She apparently unticked it, reticked somewhere else, told me to give it 24 hours and any problems give her a call on her direct line.
I waited - no change - in fact BT Speedster last night told me that my profile had now gone down to 19MB max - so I called her today where I got a stroppy colleague, who insisted she couldn't help, no-one would have told me that, didn't know what was going on and she was happy to disconnect me, but I'd have to pay about £200.  Did I want to do that - if not, I need to phone technical
So, now you've read my boring post - What the heck do I do
You can't complain to anyone because no-one takes responsibility.  You can't get a new Hub because the ones they sell here now http://bit.ly/cOKodz are in fact HH2's honest Guv, despite the lights being horizontal instead of vertical and a different shape and size.  How do BT get away with this?
I'm stuck with a service that delivers the same 02 did to me on 'worse cables' but for £15.00 a month more and wifi loss that can't be solved and a hub that can't be faulted because BT are scripted to say all is well

    Can anyone help me with Bakcing up my MacBook Pro???

    Assuming you're looking for recommendations rather than experiencing specific problems, I would advise the following:
    Buy 2 external hard disks. You don't say what model of MBP you have, but I would suggest buying the fastest type of drive your MBP supports. So, instead of going for a cheap USB2 drive, I would consider FW800 or Thunderbolt if your MBP supports it. It might cost more but will be faster.
    One of the drives needs to be only as big as your internal HD. (Technically, it only needs to be as big as the amount of data you want to back up but to be safe, get one that matches your HD size). This HD can be used for a Bootable Clone. I use SuperDuper from Shirt Pocket, and a Freecom 1GB FireWire 800 drive. You can try it out for free, but it's worth buying a licence because once it's licenced you can do 'smart backups' where it only needs to copy files that have changed. The free version will have to do an entire clone each time which takes longer.
    The second drive you should use as a Time Machine backup. The bigger this is, the more backups you can keep, so the further back in time you can go.
    The reason to have both is that they both do different things.
    SuperDuper is great for doing a complete 'emergency' backup every so often (i.e. before you go away, or at the end of each week, whatever). This disk means that if your MBP is lost, stolen or the HD goes pop, you can recover pretty much the whole system immediately, because you can boot from that drive on any Intel Mac that supports your bus type and OS version. I do an SD clone every so often and keep it hidden, in case anything happens to my MBP.
    Time Machine backups are NOT bootable. However, in an emergency you can do a clean install of your OS and then get everything back by migrating from your last TM backup. But the best and most common use of TM backups is simply 'turning back the clock', i.e. you deleted something you wished you hadn't, or even saved over a piece of work you didn't mean to, or installed some software that has caused problems. As long as there was a recent TM backup, you can just get the older version of that file, or revert your whole system. I carry my TM drive around with me in my laptop bag and have it sat there attached and backing up the whole time I'm working.
    Well worth having both strategies in place.
    As an aside, if you keep confidential files (client or personal) on your MBP and carry it around somewhere like London as I do, it's also worth considering using FileVault so if your lappy gets nicked you don't have to worry about them getting at all your info. And if you have a clone at home, in the worst instance, all you really have to worry about is just buying a new laptop and restoring it. Expensive, sure, but at least your data is safe.

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

    In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

  • Can anyone help me with a problem i am having with my music on my iPhone 4S. I have put alot of Compilation CDs in my library on iTunes. I download these tracks onto my phone, everything is ok so far. Now, this is what is niggling me and I don.t know how

    Can anyone help me with a problem i am having with my music on my iPhone 4S. I have put alot of Compilation CDs in my library on iTunes. I download these tracks onto my phone, everything is ok so far. Now, this is what is niggling me and I don.t know how to resolve it. This is my problem: 
    Have downloaded for example: Queen – Bohemium Rhapsody from a compilation album as well as a few complete Queen Album CDs into the iTunes library and then put them into playlists,
    When I go onto my phone and select Queen on the MUSIC app using Songs tab at the bottom of the screen it will display all Queen songs and their resective Alum pics, that is all those not in a complilation album, .
    If I know the song title I can select the songs tab and find the song that way,
    I’ve tried fiddling with the settings in the iTunes app by going to ‘get info’ tab and trying to sort the problem out that way but am not having much luck.What I want the phone to do is show, for example all Queens songs including those in compilation albums. Can this be done, would be grateful for any ideas on how it can be done, that is if ic can be done, any ideas
    Thanks for your help

    Try assigning Queen as the Album Artist on the compilations in iTunes on your computer.

    Mine does the same thing occasionally, is your phone jailbroken? Sometimes it will work if you delete the book and reinstall it or put your phone into airplane mode then turn it back off.

    Hello,
    That means it can find the Hard Drive, or can't find the things needed for booting.
    See if DU even sees it.
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

    The figures you mention only make sense on your intranet.  Are you still using the same wireless router.  The verizon one is somewhat limited as far as max wireless-n performace.  For one thing it only has a 2.4 radio.   I like many people who wanted wireless-n performance before they even added a wireless-n gigabit router, have my own handling my wireless-n network.

    I don't have a solution for you, but just wanted to let you know I used to have the exact same problem. I resolved it (for the most part....about 90% of the time, anyway) by adjusting the screensaver and power settings to never let the computer go to sleep.

    Restore the iPhone when connected to iTunes by cable.
    Still the same TS1275?
    Is your iPhone jailbroken?
    Or
    Has your computer ever been used to jailbrake or downgrade (Tinyumbrella) any iPhone?

  • My search bar for my library no longer works. Also, the menu bar is no longer visible. Noticed this problem last Saturday. Can anyone help me with this?

    My search bar for my iTunes library no longer works. Also, the menu bar is no longer visible. Noticed this problem last Saturday. This might be an issue with my desktop, and not iTunes itself Can anyone help me with this?

    Press Ctrl-B to toggle the menu bar on and off.
    When you say that the "search bar for my iTunes library no longer works" can you be more specific?  The operation of the search function has changed in iTunes 12, essentially having two very distinct modes:
    when Search Entire Library is checked, entering a search string will generate a dropdown of all matching items within your whole library, from which multiple operations are available via context menus
    when Search Entire Library is unchecked, entering a search string creates a filtered view of whatever your current focus is (e.g., if you're looking at a playlist the filter applies only to items in that playlist) with none of the dropdown options as in the first case

    You might try using the add-on 'NoSquint' which allows numerous zoom options specific to each page you visit & keeps your settings - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
    If you want to go back to 3.6x, you will find it here:

    In most cases you can simply "upgrade" (meaning downgrade) directly from the installation. It would be a good idea to save your passwords & bookmarks just to be on the safe side.
