Continuation of WebOS support and online services

What is the prognosis for continuing WebOS support and online services now that HP is out of the WebOS hardware business? How long can I count on having an active and supported webOS online account? As a decades-long Palm user, how long before I should seriously consider jumping ship?

AFAIK, webOS will be supported for at least a year to fulfill the warranty. HP has maintained they will support the software side, but will no longer make hardware.
Who knows? Another company might buy webOS (again) and keep it alive for a good long run!

N95 remove search and online services

Hi,
Does anyone know how I can remove the search and online file sharing (my phone shows Flickr) from the home screen? I would just like to see the active standby apps, WLAN and my calendar entries.
I have software version V 30.0.015
Thanks

I'm afraid it's all or nothing. The programmable selection keys, the standby icons, Share Online and the search facility are all parts of the Active Standby. To get rid of them you have to get rid of Active Standby altogether:
Settings > General > Personalisation > Standby mode > Active standby

Hp the worst brand ever! Worst support and customer service

I bought the HP envy touchsmart 15-j001tx from Relaince Digital, Mangalore on 1st october 2013.
When i reached home and opened the laptop i noticed a spot in the middle of the screen that was seen even when the laptop was switched off. It resembled some sort of liquid inside the screen. When i turned on the laptop it disappeared after a few minutes so i left it. On 2nd october when i opened the laptop in the morning i saw that the liquid spot had reappeared and it had spread and it was now covering the middle one third of the screen.. I turned on the laptop but this time it didnt disappear.
I tried calling the seller and he told me to call customer care.. I called customer care but since it was gandhi jayanti they werent available. So i called them again on 3rd october and they registered my complaint and asked me to send pics and i did immediately! And they replied saying this damage is not covered under warranty. I called up the dealer again and he said bring it over.. So i headed to mangalore again (from manipal) and when i reached there they tell me that they wont replace the piece but if i take it to hp centre in mangalore they will give me a DOA certificate and then i can get a replacement. So i took it there but they too are dancing around the topic. Now i dont have a laptop and i dont have my 80,000 rupees that i spent trying to get this.
I will fight to get either my money back or a new laptop but to anyone who is reading this... PLEASE keep in mind that HP has the worst customer service ever.. And Reliance digital will sell u faulty pieces and steal your money..
Do not trust these people ever..

Worst tech support and customer service i have ever experienced in my life

almost two hours of my time was wasted on tech support. rude, inconsiderate people from the philipines. i have filopino friends. they are nothing like these people.
after wasting my time through endless transfers, being hung up on multiple times, transferred to the worng number more than ten times i got india somehow, and the women told me my is faulty. the numbers lock key doesn't work and i can't punch any buttons on the right side where the numeric keypad is.
dell and your other competitors must love this because the abusrdity of this experience is resulting in my returning this pc. i bought it two days ago.
wow ...
sad, sad, state of affairs. worst call centre i have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. especially some guy named 'ricky'. what an abnoxious human being.
i have apple products but prefer pc, but with service like this ... man ...
anyway, terrible way to lose a customer.
have i mentioned i often advise on what computers to buy? hear that sucking sound? bad customer service results in bad business.
good luck. selling my stock.

Verizon email support and customer service - simply horrible

After spending a frustrating and annoying morning trying to get Verizon Technical Support to help fix a problem with blocked access to Webmail, I notice on this forum that mine is not the only problem,.....except I have not seen the same issue denoted. I was attempting to get help to resolve an issue accessing WebMail where i get a screen that says:
"Sorry, You cannot access WebMail from [ip address] to due spam activity. Please contact [email protected] for assistance." yes, that is the actual message. First....How the FREAK (polite word entered here) do you contact an EMAIL ADDRESS when you can't get to email?. That's like hearing 'You have a problem with your telephone?...well just call me and we can fix the problem". Second, after dialing support numbers twice (first time afer spending 35 minutes on hold, the person answering the phone hung up on me) the person that finally picked up after another 20 minutes on hold could not offer any help. They had to enter a trouble ticket for IT to look into the problem. When I requested a ticket number for reference, I was told they can't give me that because they really had no way to immediately enter a trouble report. HELLO!?! What good is support if you don't give the persons answering the phone access or authority to put in tickets? When queried about an estimated resolution time, I was told up to two billing cycles. HELLO AGAIN?!? My Verizon email is with the KEEPMYEMAIL plan....one year paid up front. So this explanation, by itself, indicates up to two years to resolve an issue. I've been around for a few years and this is the worst I have experienced with Verizon...and I know that the company has very sophisticated trouble ticketing system....I was part of the team that built them and can assure anyone reading this message it was not designed to be difficult or inaccessible. Verizon has changed and not for the better. When a company hides behind email and circular voice response systems it's an indication that customer service is NOT their priority. Think I joking? Just look at the webpages and see if you can find a single customer relationship management contact that you can call or send a message or mail to. All you find is a general correspondence address in St. Petersburg Florida. If, by some miracle, this moves up the chain or authority, here's a thought. Does this remind anyone of the MA BELL comedy sketch by Lilly Thomlin? Isn't this attitude the same reason that Verzon was born out of the breakup of AT&T in the first place? Just sign me - Aisforannoyed

Hi aisforannoyed,

Upgrade and online service

Hello,I called and upgraded my service to add cable and a sports package. The lady I spoke with said I had HBO for two years and that I would be able to watch it online and on my smartphone. But when I sign in to HBO Go or Xfinity TV go to watch anything it says I am not subscribed to it.When will this be available to me ?

Using the Export to PDF online service, I get "Conversion Failure" error message; why?

Using the Export to PDF online service, I get "Conversion Failure" error message; why?
The documen t was originally created with Word (*.doc) then printed to PDF format; now I need to convert back to Work, but I get the "Conversion Failure" error message, both on conversion back to *.Doc format and attempt to convert to *.docx format.

Hi lfordlaw,
How large is the PDF that you're trying to convert? How did you generate the PDF from Word (did you use Acrobat, or Word's built-in PDF generator)? What version of Word are you using?
The answers to those questions should help us get to the bottom of things.
In the meantime, please try the following:
Clear the browser cache and log back in to https://cloud.acrobat.com.
Try a different web browser (see System Requirements | Adobe Acrobat Pro and Online Services for a list of supported browsers).
Try to convert a different file (if you can convert another file without error, the one you're receiving the error on may be damaged).
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Best,
Sara

What computer operating system are you using? If Windows go to:
C:\Users\99jon\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Online Services
Inside the Online Services folder delete the Photoshop Elements 12.0.0 folder.
Re-launch Organizer and OLS should get recreated.
N.B substitute your user name for 99jon. If you can’t find AppData you may first need to enable the showing of hidden system files.

BEST BUY ONLINE NEEDS SOME HELP AND CUSTOMER SERVICE NEEDS TO BE HELPFUL

After having just spent an hour trying to order something that the website says was in stock, and then finding it really wasn't available, it became obvious to me that Best Buy online leaves something to be desired. It seems like a classic bait and switch. Get people to the website with a low priced "deal", only to find it isn't available, however a more expensive version is available.
So, I call customer service. I get someone who assures me the order will go through, provide my credit card, redeem my points, and only to find it would not work after all, as it didn't for me. So I ask for a supervisor. And I get someone who says "I don't know" and has no answers except that this is the way it is. To add salt to the wound, he announces that unlocked phones cannot be ordered via telephone. When asked why the rep didn't know that, yes, another "I don't know".
As a Best Buy customer who spends way too much money at Best Buy, I find this entire situation unacceptable. As they say, vote with your feet, I will be exploring other stores to spend my money at. A website that says something is available, and then isn't, simply is bad business. And customer service who can only say "I don't know" isn't really customer service at all.
A "out of the box" idea would be to listen to what I'm saying, and fix it; this isn't the first time this has happened. Simply saying "I don't know" is only irritating customers who are trying to buy things from Best Buy. I am so frustrated with the situation and I assure you I will look elsewhere for future needs/wants.

Hello User269123,
I apologize for the lengthy delay in responding to you. While we try to reply to all customer service issues posted on the forum within 3 to 5 business days, we don’t usually receive requests for assistance through our IdeaX board. In the future, please make sure that you are posting any customer service related issues to the Customer Service boards to ensure a timely response.
Having said that, I pulled up your account via the email address attached to your forum profile to properly document your ideas to make sure we take advantage of the feedback you’ve offered. I was glad to see your concerns reached Dan on our executive support team and that he was able to address your case in a timely manner.
Thank you for posting,

" . . . product is not yet supported by this online service"

I need support for my new iMac and get this when entering my serial number: " . . . product is not yet supported by this online service." Please tell me what went wrong and how to get support. I chatted with them yesterday and we did a restore. Since it took a couple of hours, I thought that I would return today to finish the issues.

EA6350 fails to load web pages, but all other online services continue working

Occasionally, when using the internet, web pages stop loading. Other online services such as messenger programs, Netflix, and online games still function properly. I usually end up having to restart the router in order to re-enable browsing. We are using the latest firmware, and only purchased the router about a month or two ago. I'm on channel 11, with only one other network on 11, and my 5 Ghz channel is irrelevant, as I'm the only 5 Ghz network in my area. Is the router defective? Is it a problem with a firewall or other program? Let me know if you need any more information.

Internet Service Provider and Modem Configurations
What ISP Service do you have? Cable or DSL?
What ISP Modem Mfr. and model # do you have?
Is ISP Modem/Service using Dynamic or Static WAN IP addressing?
What ISP Modem service link speeds UP and Down do you have?
Check cable between Modem and Router, swap out to be sure. Link>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAT6 is recommended.
Check ISP MTU requirements, Cable is usually 1500, DSL is around 1492 down to 1472. Call the ISP and ask.
http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=88e63d78588142e6bb68e22d7faf2046_Configuring_the_M...
For DSL/PPPoE connections on the router, ensure that "Always ON" option is enabled.
If the ISP modem has a built in router, it's best to bridge the modem. Having 2 routers on the same line can cause connection problems: Link>http://www.practicallynetworked.com/networking/fixing_double_nat.htm and http://cognitiveanomalies.com/cisco-nat-how-nat-works/ If the modem can't be bridged then see if the modem has a DMZ option and input the IP address the router gets from the modem and put that into the modems DMZ.
I recommend that you have your ISP check the cabling going to the ISP modem, check signal levels going to the ISP modem. For cable Internet, RG-6 coaxial cable is needed, not RG-59. Check for t.v. line splitters and remove them as they can introduce noise on the line and lower the signal going to the ISP modem. Connecting to the ISP modem could result in a false positive as the signal to the modem could be just enough to that point then adding on a router, could see problems. Ensure modem is working well too. Bad modems are out there as well. The router operation is dependent upon getting good data flow from the ISP modem and the modem is dependent upon getting good signal from the ISP Service.
Any other WiFi routers in the area? Link> Use http://www.techspot.com/downloads/5936-inssider.html to find out. Use v3. How many?
WMM Support must be enabled for single wireless N mode to function.

Router Placement
Forum User - "Well I feel really dumb. After moving the router away from other electronic devices my speeds are back to normal. Just a heads up for anyone experiencing slow speeds, you might want to move it away from other electronics and see if that helps."
3-6' feet minimum safe distance between devices.
Placement on main level floor and central in the building and WELL ventilated is preferred. Not in basements or closets as building materials, or near by electronics devices could interfere or hinder good signal propagation.

Can not get my SharePoint Online service up and running....help!!

Strange thing here!
this is what I did:
1.logged into my account, which is [email protected];
2.click the downfacing triangle right to Admin;
3.click SharePoint;
then see the following alert:
That didn't work
We're sorry, but [email protected] can't be found in the gsmtrans123-admin.sharepoint.com directory. Please try again later, while we try to automatically fix this for you.
Here are a few ideas:
Click here to sign in with a different account to this site.
This will sign you out of all other Office 365 services that you're signed into at this time.
If you're using this account on another site and don't want to sign out, start your browser in Private Browsing mode for this site (show me how).
If that doesn't help, contact your support team and include these technical details:

My questions:
1.How come?
2.What shoud I do to set up my standlone SharePoint Online service?
3.Can I get a later expiration date for this disrupption?
Thanks.

According to the error message, you are still using the same account.
[email protected]
I was able to reproduce the exact same error message when accessing my sharepoint.com site using an account with Global Administrator role, but without the proper licensing.
What happens if you go to https://gsmtrans123.sharepoint.com, or
https://gsmtrans123-my.sharepoint.com. Do you see any sharepoint sites, or do you get a error message?
Have you tried to open this in another browser, or cleared the cache in your current browser?
Could you try to create a new account, assign it the Global administrator role, and a SharePoint license, and then login to your admin site?
If all of those fail, you should probably create a Service Request using this form

Why has my 8x8 desktop app on my Macbook Pro running OS X Yosimite 10.10.1 suddenly stopped working while the app on my iPhone and the online service both work fine?

Why has my 8x8 desktop app on my Macbook Pro running OS X Yosimite 10.10.1 suddenly stopped working while the app on my iPhone and the online service both work fine? Is this because of some recent software update by Apple? 8x8 support acknowledges issues with no current work-arounds? The 8x8 desktop app worked until early December, then quit. I've deleted and re-downloaded the app, but no difference.

The solution is :
1. Delete iPhone configuration utility. Just drop it to the trash
2. Run
sudo rm -rf /private/var/db/receipts/com.apple.pkg.iPhoneConfigurationUtility.*
rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iPhoneConfigurationUtility.plist*
3. Delete the whole folder: /System/Library/Extensions/AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext
4. Reinstall iTunes (just over the previous one)
5. Restart
incase of any issues, visit this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3725328?start=15&tstart=0

Why can't Adobe continue to support and create updates.....

Why can't Adobe continue to support and create updates for MAC G5 OS X Tiger?
I'm sure I'm not the ONLY owner and operator of this MAC machine. I'm finding it
VERY frustrating how your comany, JAVA and Apple of just written this machine off.
You know, MAYBE I'd be more understanding if this MAC product or ALL MAC
products weren't so reliable. However, like many MAC users out there
there's NOTHING wrong with my machine or my current programs OTHER than the
simple fact I can no longer update Flash player or Java... all because
my machine is no longer supported.
WHY can't updates continue to be made? This way,ALL consumers are happy:
those who feel it wasteful economically and ecologically to
replace a computer with a NEW computer, and those who just like to have the latest
and greatest tech toys.

As to the rest - nobody seems to like this forum, and what you're saying has been said on numerous occasions already.
It's Adobe's fault for "buying in" this forum (sorry - "Social Business" ) service, but it's Jive's fault for producing such a crappy solution in the first place.
