Central time not working?

I've got an issue with my MacBook running 10.6.8 and Google Chrome.  My mail is 5 hours off, even though I have all of the time zones and time correctly set, in both Google and on the computer.  I checked under WinXp which I run on the same machine, and all of the times are correct.  What I noticed is that as I change time zones in System Preferences, anything other than Central Daylight Ti

Dear Lunchbox 1101,
Thank you for posting such detailed note of your issue and the steps to resolve it. My imessages have not been working since this morning either and I have Verizon. I wonder if this issue is carrier specific because my friend who is on AT&T is not having any problems. It started for me on April 9th first but resolved on its own but today it is still not working for me. I searched on google and there are notes saying that Apple was having system issues with imessages on April 9th and I wonder if it is Apple again today as well.

  • Ichat - getting started for first time NOT Working ..please help

    I opened the Ichat application for th every first time today. When I open the app a box pops up and asks you to enter your user name and password and with which type of account you want to log in with, etc. First, I chose my mobile me account ( I also have a mac.com account and teh same thing I am going to describe happens with it as well for it is not an apple id dependent problem). I do so and click continue. The next screen comes up in the box and it is titled " encrypted ". Then in the box it says you are now ready to use ichat" . At the bottom of the box it says click done to begin using ichat.
    Thus, is my problem. There is no "done" option to click on. The only button options to click on are: "learn more" , "go back" or "continue" . If I click "continue" nothing happens and I cannot do anything or begin using ichat. If I like "learn more" nothing happes at all - thus, the same result as clicking "continue". If I click back it will goto the previous screens but nothing changes.
    Has anyone experienced this before? It seems strange and odd for an apple software to be so deleterious. How do i fix it so I can use iChat?
    Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. Jenna

    Hi
    Welcome to the    Discussions
    Unfortunately although very rare some people do find that iChat does this.
    Do this first.
    Open your Home Folder (Little House icon)
    Go to the Preferences Folder within and then find all the com.apple.iChat(xxx).plist items and delete them.
    Try iChat again.
    You should see several Start Up Screens.
    1) A Welcome Screen.
    2) A Valid AIM name (Includes options for MobileMe and @mac.com as well as AIM) plus confirming your Name (Your name maybe Prefilled from the Address Book)
    3) the Bonjour Enable (or not) screen.
    4) The Jabber option (Includes GoogleTalk) This Screen includes options to change Server Names and Ports under the text fields for the Jabber ID.
    5) A Video Preview pane. (You can use this to take a Snapshot for your Buddy Pic)
    6) a Details of Accounts you have set up screen.
    7) the Done Screen.
    More on this with Pictures here
    If this does not work we may have to get you to Reinstall iChat.
    How much work this entails depends how far your OS has been updated above the Install Disk Level.
    Could you tell me what OS version the Install Disk is (What came on your Computer when new) ?
    And what OS level you are currently using ?

  • "Show my windows and tabs from last time" not working, Mac OS 10.6.4, FF 3.8.10 or FF 4 Beta 6

    I have tried any number of times to get this to work, but it's still not working. On my other Mac with OS 10.6.4 and FF 3.6.8/10 the "show my windows and tabs from last time" is working just fine.
    I have checked some of the settings in about:config per some of the other forum posts with resolution to this issue, but this hasn't worked for me. Especially Since some settings have changed in the more recent versions of FF.
    I'm pretty sure my settings are correct. Is anyone else having this same issue?
    On the Mac exhibiting the issue it prompts me if I want to close all open tabs when the red X is clicked, when I quit firefox it keeps my tabs open just fine when firefox starts up the next time. This is normal behavior, but when the feature in question is active it overrides this behavior, on my other mac, and just stores my last session so that when I open firefox all is as it was before it was closed (either closing it via quit or with the red X will do the trick).
    On my new mac, the prompt to close open tabs never goes away and my tabs just vanish, whichever way I close firefox.
    I hope that was clear enough. Thanks for any help.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore
    If you use [[Clear Recent History]] in Firefox 3.5 and later to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

    Hi guys,
    I keep getting "waiting for activation" on my iMessage. I can only send/receive iMessage from my email address, NOT my phone number.
    I have done all kind of fixing suggestions that I can find online, but nothing works so far.
    - Date & time set as automatic (I don't know why this matter, but mine was already set as automatic from the begining)
    - Reset network setting
    - Changing the DNS to 8.8.8.8.
    - Restore to factory setting (from back up & as new iPhone)
    - Turning on/off iMessage & facetime
    - Sign out/in of apple ID
    - Change location from apple ID
    - Hard reset/reboot
    And many others.
    ...me too. I'm in Portugal having the same issue!! Hopefuly Apple will give us a solution, shortly...

  • Face time not working in egypt

    I bought two iPhone 4 one from apple store in Paris n the other from Vodafone in Egypt and the one from Egypt have face time but is not activating so does anyone know how to activate it although my Paris iPhone is activating face time automatically n it is working fine

    Guys I have just contacted the apple support and i have a little chat with them regarding this issue as i have the same question, my case is i have bought iPhone 6 plus from the UAE apple store and for sure there is no FaceTime application or even FaceTime in the settings as they are disabling this feature in UAE, However i will use this i phone in Egypt which they are enabling this feature in Egypt as i have another i phone with Egypt Sim Card and it works fine so i asked them i want to use the iPhone 6 that i have just bought in Egypt and enabling the FaceTime is that possible ? and they replied with if my country are not denying using FaceTime and iMessage thew will work fine. as they are disabling this function by location only, so once i will be in Egypt i have to restore my phone and it will relocate my location Automatically and the FaceTime and the iMessage will work then as long as my carrier provider is allowing this function.
    and actually that make sense as i never heard before anyone here in Egypt has iPhone with no FaceTime feature am always hearing this in UAE and KSA.
    I searched a lot online for answer for this question and i always find " it will not work " or "it disabled you can't enable it" and i really get disappointed for those answers as i payed a lot for this phone, so i guarantee to you that it will works in your phone as long as you are not in the districted country, and if you don't believe me you contact the Apple support by yourself.

  • Having problem with my vibration some times work some times not work

    thankz....

    Hello guys,
    The problem now has changed. I just realized that if the bluetooth is not working and I put the pc to sleep when I start it again in most of the times the problem is gone, it may start working right away or even some seconds after it left the sleep mode. I tried checking it a few times and it happened 4 out of 5 times I tried. But after the Bluetooth starts working again if  I turn the computer off (shut down) and turn it back on later or even if I restart the laptop, then the problem starts happening all over again, until I put it to sleep and turn it on from spleep mode. This problem is really weird to me. 
    I am thinking that maybe there is some feature in the windows 8 that is not allowing the bluetooth to start when the computer starts from shut down or from restart, but that doesn't block the bluetooth when it is put to sleep.
    Does anybody has any idea of what is going on and how to solve it?
    Thank you all for your help so far, I appreciate it.

  • Central button Not working ..... now ? 5 buttons not working !!! What can i do?

    Hello all,
    I bought my blackberry torch in September 2011  and two months ago the center button was problem (bellow the screen)  and not working at all. so I gave it to a company to fix it and told me to round 45 euros to fix it. also told me that it will be ready in the new year because they would have holiday. The man there made a report saying the problem with the center button (only had this problem, I note) and now they brought me back and told me  they can not fix it and they send it to blackberry but  even they could not fix it.  Enable my phone  front of them and did not operate any button of 5 bellow the screen (two to the right of the center button that had problems and two to the left). I told them to send it back to the technician because when I gave to you to fix it only one button was not working and now none of the 5.
    After nearly two months they brought me back and told me ''we can not do anything ....'' So,five buttons not working.
    What can I do in this case????
    Not got it from there yet to see what I can do or what can I say?
    I think I'm right. It is reasonable to I want my phone back with only one button broken as I gave it to them and not with extra 4 buttons not work.
    Sorry for my english, I hope you understand  

    A battery pull does nothing to improve the performance of the battery, it clears your phone's cache of unwanted fragments that have accumulated and this improves the performance of your phone.  I doubt it's as simple as this but it wouldn't be the first time I've heard of a service centre charging money for repairs when a simple battery pull would have done the trick.
    When you get your phone back (working properly or not), I suggest trying a battery pull.

  • Central switching NOT work.

    Good mooring,
    My lab is:
    1)  Virtual controller 7.3.112  is OK
    2)  N° 2 LAP 1130 e 1240   is Joined to controller OK
    3)  flexconnect in localswitch is OK
    4)  flexconnect in central switch IS NOT work.
    please can you help me to find the problem.

    I fixed the problem.
    the problem was "Promiscuous Mode" of the "data port" Port-group.
    this is very impacted solution, because this requirements t is not married to the same logic virtualization.
    I have the hypervisor implemented as " best practics" of Cisco and VmWare:
    only one port-channel on vswitch with aggregation of ALL NiC ( in only one VSwitch) of the server for I/O traffic client-server.
    I can not reserve the Phisycal interface for to made new Vswitch dedicated to this news virtual machine.
    this is and requirements very strange for virtualization implementation.

  • TS3479 quick time not working after snow leopard install?

    Made video's on my iphone and loaded them to my imac. Video did not work in iphoto.  No Quick time pop up. what happened? Snow leopard install. 

    You need to re-install iPhoto because it's missing bits of itself:
    Library not loaded...
    Reason: no suitable image found.
    Looking at the missing files it's possible that it's missing from the OS. But start with re-installing iPhoto, and if that fails you'll ned to re-install the OS.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2. Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only...’

  • Imessage & Face Time not working on mavericks

    Imessage and Face Time is not working on Maveriks!, any solution????
    I try changing passwords, on Icloud, Apple ID, restarting, loug out and back in and nothing!

    Yeah I have a fix.  I do not recommend you do this unless you know what you are doing....  go to the apple store and get a tech to get the serial number back into the bios of the mac.
    You need to find your serial number on the bottom of your mac or if older mbp remove battery and it is inside the battery housing.
    Use this program to write the serial number to the board.

    FYI you don't need to use a CD you can use a USB and on bootup hold the option key down and you can boot from the USB stick.
    If you have questions please do not hesitate to ask.

  • Face Time not working consistently from Kabul, Afghanistan.  Any ideas?

    I am in Kabul, Afghanistan and have an iPhone 4S that I can Face Time with my family successfully.  They are in the US.  I am calling their iPhone 4 and Macs.  When I try calling other iPhones and/or Mac's (also in the US), I get the error message that their phones are not available.  From email exchanges I have made, with the parties I am trying to call, it appears that they have done everything they need to do to Face Time successfully.  In fact, they are able to Face Time with everyone else but me.
    Where I am located, in order for Face Time to work, I have to have the wifi turned on, iPhone in Airplane mode, and cellular services turned off.  Any other combination will not work.  The fact that I can Face Time with some people tells me that this procedure does work.
    The only difference I can see exists in my Contact list.  People that I can face Time with, have a "Movie Camera Icon" on their contact page Face Time button.  Everyone else does not.  Does this mean anything?
