"Accusing me of smoking crack lol... wish i had been though because at least then i would have an understandable reason for things not working right !"
LOL !!! You are too funny. About the "smoking crack" thing though, that's what I felt I went through for many years when my cards stopped working and having to 1) replace, 2) work, 3) break down and repeat the same process, until I started building things on my own. Even still I built my own machine, it does come with it's own issues, but now I'm in more control of those issues at 1/3 the cost and the same speed (if not faster) and that's my WHOLE POINT So when are you going to stop being tired of 3 step process of how Graphics Cards work on a Mac? You know the definition of "insanity" right? I don't think I need to define it for you. Later all...

  • Hi. I'm new to this and thought I already posted this question, but don't see it anywhere. My question: If I get a new iPhone, can I still use the old one like an iPod and download music and apps?

    If I buy a new iphone, can I still use the old one like an ipod with my iMac and download music, videos and apps?

    Absolutely, Yes. I'm sure that many iPhones are "recycled" that way within a family.
    The worst that will happen is that once in a while it will remind you to activate it as a phone. Just ignore the notifications.

  • After updating libraries system still needs the old one.

    Hi. Almost always when I upgrade library and som other packages, system still needs the old one but at the same time it needs the new one. Like when i updated gnome and libffi, it needs libffi.so.5 and libffi.so.6. When I run gnome-shell with libffi.so.5 I've got:
    /usr/bin/gnome-shell: error while loading shared libraries: libffi.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    When I upgrade it, new error appears:
    /usr/bin/gnome-shell: error while loading shared libraries: libffi.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    It happend with more apps. I think something is wrong with my system and i don't know what.

    I am using vim in the console but have gvim because it is compiled with X copy/paste support.
    /usr/local/lib is empty.
    I just updated fully (included a gvim and vim-runtime update).
    I deleted the files I added earlier (libffi.so.5, libffi.so.5.0.10).
    I've also rebooted.
    As you can see below, vim needs both libffi.so.5 and libffi.so.6.

  • HT204053 I created a new apple id because the previous one no longer exists as email (domain had to be cancelled). I keep seeing the old one pop up in my iPhone for which I don't remember the password. How can I get rid of it???

    I created a new apple id because the previous one no longer exists as an email (domain had to be cancelled). I keep seeing the old one pop up in my iPhone for which I don't remember the password. How can I get rid of it??? Or how can I reset the password if the email doesn't exist??? I also tried answering a question (my date of birth) but it says it's wrong.
    I'm really frustrated with the apple id!!!
    Frustrated!!!

    In one of the help pages for managing your Apple ID (http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40), it shows two separate sections, one for Apple ID and one for Primary Email address. When I go to manage my Apple ID, I see only a single section for both. Can the two be 'separated', especially when you face the situation of having to discontinue your email address for some reason?
    I also noticed that when navigating to Apple ID Support Communities, it shows my nickname 'dishdy'. How and when did I insert this? In the current sequence for creating an Apple ID I don't see this. In my current profile I don't see this.
    In any case, I have freed myself from my previous Apple ID (@artemis.it) on my iPhone.
    Thanks for your help.

  • I have a new time capsule (replace my old time capsule).  I want to erase my old one.  My computer does not see the old one anymore, how do I connect it (the old TC is not connected to modem)

    I have a new time capsule (replace my old time capsule).  I want to erase my old one.  My computer does not see the old one anymore, how do I connect it (the old TC is not connected to modem).  I want to erase it and then use it as either a second hard drive (sired/sirelesly?) or as a hard drive/bridge.  So,
    1.  why doesn't my cmputer see the old TC
    2  once i have solved that, how do I erase the old one
    3.  Can I use the old one as a supplemental hard drive
         a.  wired?
         b. wirelessly?
    4.  Can I use the old one as a range extender?
    I know .. a lot of questions but I would appreciate any help.
    Thanks

    1. Because it is either the same IP as the new one or hidden by being plugged in as a second router.
    To access it, isolate one computer from the existing network and plug it directly by ethernet to a lan port of the TC. Use the erase function in the TC to remove all the content of the hard disk.
    Then go to the internet tab, connection sharing and select off bridged. You can then reconnect the TC to the network.. and the computer as well. The TC will act as bridged device.. getting IP from the main router and should then appear correctly in Airport utility.
    2. I covered in 1. But you just go in airport utility manual setup. disk, and you will see the erase function. You can also set it to bridge and leave the erase until you put it back in the network.. but be careful you erase the right one.
    3. You can use the old TC via wired or wireless.. although I would always stick to wired connection if possible. Speed on wireless is 10x worse than wired.
    Also note the reliability goes down dramatically after 2 years.. a series 1 3 years old or more is ebay fodder unless you want to repair it. Do not trust vital data to it.. when it dies you will have issues recovering it.
    4. Yes, all apple routers will function as wireless extenders. when you do that the ethernet ports turn off so it becomes a purely wireless device.. strange apple decision on what you want to use your TC for.

  • I changed my appleID but iCloud is still using the old one and no place to change it.  How do I get iCloud to update to the new ID?

    I changed my appleID but iCloud is still using the old one and no place to change it.  How do I get iCloud to update to the new ID?

    You have to sign out completely and then sign back in.
    On a Mac, System Preferences>iCloud and click 'Sign out'.
    On an iOS device, Settings>iCloud and click 'Delete account' (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Your synced data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in (give it time).

    Delete what? The ID's? They cannot be deleted - you just quit using it.
    If you still have one old ID - that you have purchased content with - you are saying that the password no longer works with that ID? Did you try to reset the password for that ID?
    Read this - instructions if the ID was disabled for entering the wrong password.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2446?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    If it gets too involved - you can always contact support.

    Just do not create another ID!

  • HT5622 I have a new apple ID how come the App Store still has the old one when verifying a purchase?

    How can I fix this. It won't let me update any apps. I recently changed in the iPod but the old one still appears only when asked to verify a purchase

    - Go to settings>Store and sign out and sign into your account.
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • I had to change my apple id but the icloud account still has the old one. How can i change it.

    My apple id was cancelled by apple due to a problem and they suggested me to make a new apple id with a different email adress. Thats what i did, the proble is that the i cloud has the old apple id and i was trying to change it but i cant and the iphone keeps asking me to put de password on the old apple id wich is no longer in use
    The second problem is that when i was trying to change that, something happened and all my contacts were erased!
    I still have them on my ipad, but i dont know what to do, is all a mess with my devices!
    Can somebody help me please?

    With iOS 7 you will have to provide the password for the old ID in order to delete the existing account from your iPad.  If you can't do this, contact Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Produces & Services>Apple ID>iTunes Store, App Store or Mac App Store>Disabled Apple ID.
    As far as your missing contacts, when you get the password for the old ID reset, sign in with the ID and your new password at icloud.com and check to see if your contacts are there.  If they are, export them as a vCard as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606.  You can then import this vCard to your new account as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605.

  • Wrong 'Cover Art' - Upgraded the Art but still showing the Old one !!

    Hi,
    I have just added a New Episode to my Podcast ( using Garageband & iWeb, just like before ), at the same time I updated the 'Cover Art'. More glossy, attractive and original image and corrected the category, from just Education to Higher Education.
    This has now passed the 'iTunes' inspection ( the new episode ) and has been included into my iTunes Podcast. Here is the problem, even though I 'UPDATED' everything, "Cover Art & Category", iTunes are still showing my OLD Cover Art and the wrong Category. Why !!!
    I thought that when you added a new Episode or somehing and had made changes to the whole thing ( Podcast ) that it was changed ( updated ).
    Am I missing something, or is it that iTunes have 'missed' something.
    I do hope that someone can help and lead me in the right direction.
    Oh one more thing, I have used the '&' yet I get the '&amp' on my Podcast, yet I have seen on other Podcast's the '&' without the 'amp'. Any reason why mine is different ?
    Look forward to your comments.
    Steve

    Someone else posted about this. Actually, this is the reason why I am searching on here. I have the same exact problem. Mine has not been upgraded yet. But someone else suggested, when you change the image in your feed XML file, try renaming the picture first. It helped someone else. I guess when iTunes searched for a different file name is was finally able to change the image (which seems to be in a cache somewhere in iTunes, even though you host the files).
    It didnt work for me though. If you figure it out, let me know.

  • I have a new email address. My partner still has the old one. I downloaded Oxford Dictionary using original email. Now my Ipad shows I have an update for it but even when I sign into using the original email and password I get "cannot connect to store

    I have just got a new password and my partner has my old one. I loaded several apps onto my new Ipad. I now have an update on my Oxford Dictionary App. It will not update using my new ID and password and will not update using my former ID and password. All I get is "cannot connect to Itune Store. If I delete App  and reinstall under new name - no problem with other apps- but I don't want to pay another $59.00 for the Dictionary. How do I get Itune store to allow the update?

    Purchases are tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with. If you use a new ID, you have to buy again.

  • I'm downloading a file which I know has been updated on the server but I'm still getting the old one... I think there is a cache somewhere I need to clear but I'm not sure ?

    I have a file on my own server which is available to the public to download I uploaded a new version so I know it replaced the existing one. But when I try downloading it through Firefox I just get the older version and not the new one... I seem to remember having this problem before and was given details of how to clear the cache concerned, but I don't know for sure. Any help would be appreciated thanks

    Ctrl F5 doesn't do anything. (I'm on a Mac if that makes a difference.) The link is to the online page and it does prompt me for the id and password for that page.
    The page is designed in htm.
    This is driving me a little nuts. I suspect there is a library file somewhere that itsn't being cleared out, but I can't figure out where.
