Cleaning screen for Blackberry 8320

I'm wondering what the safe way to clean the screen is. I've been keeping my Blackberry in my pocket, and while there haven't been any sharp objects there to scratch it, the screen has gotten dirty. A dry microfiber cloth, otherwise used for cleaning my glasses, isn't taking it off. Any suggestions?

I have a screen protector on BB which is ALWAYS a good idea, although that's not the point. Anyway, are you sure it's like pocket dirt? I know it sounds gross but sometimes if I have been on the phone along time the screen gets a gritty like film on it. I'm guessing it's from sweat but it looks like spit. So I just lick my finger one and wipe it off and then use the microfiber cloth to clean the fingerprints. Paper towels are probably too abrasive and toilet paper and kleenex fall apart. So I don't think a slight bit of moisture will damage your phone. Especially if it is only on the screen and not enough liquid to get near and seams on the phone.

I received a pop up notice about computer virus check for my computer It had a MAc logo , so i pushed the icon to screen for viruses. Now it has taken over my computer and constantly switches me to gross sites while I am on line . How do I clean it up?

I received a pop up about virus screening for my computer while on line. It displayed the Mac logo ,so I went ahead and aloowed it to scan for "virus" It isaid I was infected and I could purchase a clean up service by registeringing and paying 39 bucks. I declined and now a warning keeps popping up saying I am infected and must register product and then keeps switching to gross **** sites while Im on line about every 10 min. How can I remove it? It has a logo in my top bar- a red shield w/ an exclamation point on it.

It's a scam. Your credit card no. is what they're after. To remove, see here;

You need to run Disk Utility which is on your installation disk. [Read this link|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1440?viewlocale=en_US] for instructions on what to do. Even better, get your manual out and read, I think, page 91!

Blackberry 8320 Titanium Warranty Matter/Question ?

It was suggested by T-Mobile Blackberry Support that I contact you folks directly in regards to a matter with my Blackberry 8320 Titanium.
My phone is still under warranty. Ever since I got the phone it has started to develop dust and small particles under the screen and it appears to be well sealed.
The phone has never been dropped or damaged and looks like brand new.
T-Mobile said it is cosmetic and will not replace it, asked me to ask you folks. This eventually will hamper the screen, you can see the stuff developing and this should be a sealed cover, right ?
These sealed screens should not develop anything under them, that is common sense.
I have seen many other of the same phones and none of them have this issue.
Can you tell me who I can speak to at your company about this. Thanks .... Trying to find a live person to talk to is near impossible and this should not be the case.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
It is interesting that TM would refer you here for official support -- these forums are a user-to-user support channel, not a user-to-RIM conduit. As such, there is no formal support nor information from RIM officially available here.
FWIW -- Front line support for BB's is, by contract, not provided by RIM. The carriers and authorized resellers are responsible for front line formal support to end users. It is possible to bypass your carrier and seek assistance direct from RIM, but such involves fees since you are bypassing your support agreement with your carrier. The "Support and Services" tab toward the top of these forum pages provide information about that. But, if you do go through your carrier for support, they can escalate into RIM at no fee to you if they so choose to.
So, I suggest you go back to them and call them out on why they are not honoring the support agreement you have with them. Unless, of course, that their determination of cosmetic is final -- in which case, well, they have the final say...and pleading your case can only be done through them.
Good luck!

Unable to log into Facebook for BlackBerry 10 since last year

Please help me understand why the facebook app for BlackBerry 10 doesn't allow me to login at all. See the attached screen shot which may not successfully load (error message reads as follows "sorry, an unexpected error occurred. Please try again later), I haven't had the chance to even submit my login credentials. This has happened every single time I click the app for several months now.
Bought my Z30 last year summer/ fall and love it except for the lack of app selections.
However no luck even after the two BlackBerry 10 OS updates to 10.2.1 and the last two Facebook for BlackBerry 10 updates to 10.4.0.12. Un-installing, re-installing, deleting from phone and also removing from My BlackBerry World account did not work.
I have no problems logging into the facebook app made for iPhone, iPad. I'm able to login into my Facebook on Mac computer. Windows computer and even on the BlackBerry browser.
I have already exhausted my options with hours on the phone with tech support at Phone company.
I am hoping I can get some help without having to wipe my phone completely or having to send it into the phone company.
In addition, they will give me a loaner which so far I'm told all their stores only have z10 and no Z30s to give me while my Z30 will be in for repairs.
Any useful advice would be appreciated. Please read the above in its entirety before responding so you will know what I have already done.
Thanks in advance.

[Ask & Note] Feedback for BlackBerry 10

Hi,
I have some feedback for blackberry team but I don't know where to post it..
So I'll just post it here and please let me know if this room is not the place for my post.. Thanks..
I'm now using BB10 (Q10) and have some feedback for blackberry, so I hope this feedback can be used to improve BB10 features and also increase the easy to use and popularity of BB10
Here is the list:
1. Auto suggestion for email address (To/CC/BCC). Here I'd experienced that this features is useful and also very much annoying, why? because the list is come from the recent email address that we use to send and also from email address that have send email to us including the SPAM email (if coming to our BB Inbox), my suggestion is to make some feature/menu for user to have option for clean-up the list of email suggestion or user can delete some email in the list if they feel that email is not necessary to be there (like we will never send email to DoNotReply email from some company/domain).
2. Recent Updates in BBM. I'm one of some users that not using 'Recent Updates' feature in BBM, and this feature is one of the reason why my BB battery drain so fast.. Correct there is option to turn off the 'Recent Updates' but the way is so much not user friendly, I must tap and hold each and every one in my contact list updates and hide their updates from my BBM, why not just put one option in setting for turn off ALL Updates (like u have in old BBM)? I think it will be more acceptable in this world compared to hide one by one (imagine if you have more than 1000 contacts in your BBM) and you must do it every time you do complete clean firmware upgrade.
3. Mobile Network vs Wifi. I don't know this is just happen in my BB or other's too. My experience is, if I was connected to a wifi network and turned off my wifi, the connection supposed to be from Mobile Network, but what happened in my device is, the connection just shown E / 3G without BB logo (means no connection to Blackberry Service), it's happen until I manually turn off the Mobile Network and turn it on again or change my Network from 2G to 3G only vice versa. Please do check about this problem.
so far that's the feedbacks from me, please let me know if there is some mistake in my post..
Thanks a lot..
I hope Blackberry will grown up again and more bigger than before..
Best Regards and Thanks,
Hartawan

Mac Pro 3,1 Stuck on Grey screen for 1 min during boot

I have a Late 2008 Mac Pro 3,1 and have started experiencing a very slow boot up. The computer gets stuck for over a minute on the initial gray screen after the first boot chime. Once the apple logo finally appears the boot goes normally. Once running it seems OK. The shut down seems normal with a grey screen for a few seconds with the "clock" logo.
Symptom:
After the chime I see a blank gray screen for in excess of 1 minute, it used to last only a couple of seconds.
Once the dark grey Apple logo appears the boot goes at normal speed
I have a number of different hard drives with older systems and booting from each of then gives the problem - so it does not seem to be system/disc related
Two partitions (Mavericks and ML) are on SSD's installed on a Sonnet PCIe Card and showed the same problem as the spinning hard discs.
I tried: (following a trawl of the bb's etc)
I repaired permissions and repaired all discs for all my boot partitions (10.5, 10.6, 10.7, 10.8 and 10.9) using the appropriate Disc Utility
Zapping the Pram - this was very strange as I had to keep the cmd alt P R held down for around a minute before the second chime occurred, the time of the grey screen stays stuck
Resetting the SMC
Booting in Verbose Safe Mode: Again I had to hold the Alt V down for a minute on the gray screen before the screen went black and the text appeared
I looked on the console log but could see nothing obvious, additionally from the verbose safe mode boot the text log seems to start from when the grey screen disappears. The time stamps show the boot finishing in well under the minute I wait.
Any suggestions you may have are very welcome.
Regards
Dave

Thanks The Hatter for that information. The blank gray screen is now lasting 3 mins before the Apple appears. When I restarted the system log is as below. As you can see there is just over a three minute gap between the shut down and the boot, indicating to me that it is not something in the system software after the boot but a problem at the very start. It does look like it could be something to do with the hardware as you suggest. I have verified all the discs with the disc utility and they report as OK and their SMART status is also OK. I have disconnected the external drives with no change so I will now have to do a thorough check and systematically remove the internal ones but that will have to wait for the weekend.
I have Mavericks on the Samsung 840 Pro and ML on a Crucial SSD (Crucial_CT240M500SSD1 Media) on a PCIe card. The Mavericks install I think was an upgrade, not a clean install done quite a while ago. I only noticed the problem this week when I re-booted in an ML to run some software not compatible with Mavericks. I have made a system back up as a precaution to an external disc just in case my main drive is dying!
There are some firmware updates for both the SSD discs that I have not applied these yet but I will leave them out of the mix until I have tried simplifying my configuration with a single disc.

Cleaning kit for Macbook Pro?

Hello, I have recently purchased the Macbook Pro. But, as the screen and the exterior parts of the Macbook Pro were getting dirty, I am currently trying to find a cleaning kit for the Macbook Pro and for other electronic devices.
I hear products like iKlear but I don't know if it is safe.
I can't find a reliable cleaning kit. Some say it leaves streak and it worries me if it will damage my Macbook Pro and my other electronic devices.
If possible, please recommend me a kit that can clean the screen, keyboard, and the exterior part (aluminum). Thanks!

When cleaning the outside of your MacBook, MacBook Pro, or MacBook Air, first shut down your computer and unplug the power adapter. Then use a damp, soft, lint-free cloth to clean the computer's exterior. Avoid getting moisture in any openings. Do not spray liquid directly on the computer. Do not use aerosol sprays, solvents, or abrasives that might damage the finish.

Roadmap for Blackberry / Java Developers new to Mac

Hi,
I am totally new to the mac environment, and hope one day to start developing iPhone apps. I currently develop Blackberry Apps.
What I would like to see is a Clear Roadmap for developers who may have never seen a "Mac" before.
So far from my reaseach I have compe up with the following :-
1. Learn Objective C :- (Many docs / books available)
2. Understand the Cocoa framework :- (Again ADC etc has wealth of info)
Understand UiKit framework
Understand XCode / Interface Builder
3. Purchase an Intel Mac with OS 10.5 (any recomendations ???)
4. Join the ADC and download the SDK and try some simple apps.
5. Figure out how to "deploy" the apps onto an iPhone. (via USB cable ??)
If soneone could comeup with a blog that describes how to go about this, it would encourage many developers who develop for Blackberry etc to start developing for Mac.
Finally, if someone could come up with a roadmap that would enable us to use GNUStep or something similar to get our "feet wet" on Linux / Windows BEFORE
going on to actually purchasing a "Mac" computer, it would give us the confidence to invest in Apple hardware, knowing that we are on the right track.
Thanks

Go to apple's iPhone developer site. http://developer.apple.com/iphone/
They have a Getting started area.
Any Intel Mac should work fine. Do you want something cheap, laptop, big screen, etc. Up to you.
Speeds not really an issue with standard compiling.
You don't have to join ADC to get started. Download the SDK and run the simulator. You can sign up for $99 program when you want to move it to the actual device.
Not sure GNUstep would help or how much it matches Cocoa, etc.
If you've already been programming in C++ or other languages moving to Obj-C is not that bad. iPhone is less dense than full Mac Cocoa.
Deployment is same cable the phone came with. All you need is XCode, your app and the certificates from apple.

Why has Adobe not created a .pdf reader for Blackberry?

It would seem to be advantageous for Adobe to write an Adobe Reader specifically for blackberry, in that it is one of the most-used mobiles out there.
Why other OSes and not for Blackberry?

Well, Les, I appreciate the suggestion, but it is brand new and has the latest operating system.
The problem is most noticeable to folks like me who often use JPEG-based .pdf files. As you know, before you zoom in, you have the prettiest little miniature image on your screen you ever saw, but it is not readable. When you zoom in to where the type (or music) becomes readable, there are artifacts that make it almost illegible -- certainly not easy to read in any case.
Plus, there are .pdf files I've received in my short time of use that would not open, and I've heard many others complain of the same thing.
Lastly, because I would like to open my .pdf files from a third-party app, I would prefer a reader that works in tune with all apps, not just email.
Thanks for the input, though. :)

Clean install for the 1st time from Macbook late 2008

Hi all!
I'm doing a clean install for the first time before installing Maverick. I have a Macbook from late 2008, which came with Leopard, but I always did an upgrade whenever installing Snow Leopard, Lion or Mountain Lion.
My question is when I do the clean install, the laptop goes back to factory settings, right? Do I need to install all the operating systems or can I go straight to Maverick?
I'mthinking of creating a bootable usb drive with Maverick or should I just install it from the Apple store?
It's my first time erasing the hard drive, I don't want to damage anything, just trying to be extra careful.
Thank you in advance for the help

The hard drive is wiped clean, but the hardware is the same. There is no "factory settings" until you actually install an operating system. In your case it will be Mavericks. Your laptop did not come this way from the factory.
To return to true factory conditions you have to install the OS that came with your computer. I know this seems like nitpicking, but it's better to have the facts straight.
Make Your Own Mavericks, Mountain/Lion Installer
1. After downloading the installer you must first save the Install Mac OS X application. After the installer downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
2.   Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
         a. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
          b. After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the leftside list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
          c. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
          d. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
          e. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
          f. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
3.          Use Lion DiskMaker 3.0 or DiskMaker X to put your installer clone onto the USB flash drive.
Make your own Mavericks flash drive installer using the Mavericks tool:
You can also create a Mavericks flash drive installer via the Terminal. Mavericks has its own built-in installer maker you use via the Terminal:
You will need a freshly partitioned and formatted USB flash drive with at least 8GBs. Leave the name of the flash drive at the system default, "Untitled." Do not change this name. Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy this command line after the prompt in the Terminal's window:
sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app --nointeraction
Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not be echoed to the screen so be careful to enter it correctly. Press RETURN, again.
Wait for the process to complete which will take quite some time.
