well now they will not take it back because the box is gone, Ummmm, yeah, that's what the rules are... and they will not send me AT THE LEAST ANOTHER BATTERY FOR MY BOULDER If it's your old phone, then it's on you--I replace batteries and don't expect Verizon to pay...there are lots of accessory vendors on line with awesome prices; just be sure to get an OEM battery. I've had good service, fast delivery, and excellent products buying online.
I cannot get anyone to help me ( a good paying customer with two active phones, ) but I will leave VERIZON AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, the way I see it they have but one chance to keep my business and that is to honor the " worry free " thing they so boast on. You have (had) a responsibility as well; there are conditions for returning and exchanging phones via the Worry Free Guarantee, and you don't have the original packaging. You can keep trying, and you may eventually get a sympathetic rep. Good luck.

Using time capsule model A1409 and trying to use it as only backup. Already have Verizon wireless router. Do not know which cable port to use in back of time capsule. And also it is asking for password. Have tried all of mine and it will not work.

Want to us my time capsule model A1409 as only backup. 2 TB hard drive.
Already have Verizon wireless router. Do not want to use Time capsule as router, only back up for iMac.
Do not know which cable port to use in back of time capsule to Ethernet port back of my iMac.
And also it is asking for password for the server John Garland's Time Capsule so Time machine can access it..
Have tried all of passwords can think of and none work.
Held the reset button for one second on back of capsule and do not see if anything happened.
What a conundrum.
Appreciate any help to get this working.
Thanks,
John R

I have a 2TB Timecapsule and really only use it for Time Machine backups. But the Wi-Fi side is used to sync my iPad at times.
Mine is wiredup thus;
Eth cable from iMac to modem (not the WAN port should you have one), then eth cable from modem to T/Cap in the WAN port (bottom port with an O sign above it)
I believe when its connected up you may have to set up a wireless network. Follow the instructions to set up Wi-Fi and Network
and then give it a password. The WiFi icon should appear in the menu bar where you can switch it on or off.
Its been sometime since I set it with the help of Apple Techs so I might be a bit rusty.

I have the macBookPro and the problem is the mouse pad does not work I tried everything but still does not work what should i do ?

I have the macBookPro and the problem is the mouse pad does not work I tried everything but still does not work what should i do ?
so i'm using the usb mouse

I want to clarify the issue.
The issue is with the MBP trackpad, and it works fine with an attached USB mouse.
With some ingenuity, you might be able to fix this yourself, but I suggest visiting your local Apple Store/Genius Bar. Some have fixed this issue and have posted their results online, but the Apple Store should be your first destination.
Post here with your results!!

I just purchased an Apple TV. I have a pc running windows 7. It is connected to a router and the router is connected to a wireless router. I connect my iPhone, iPad and apple tv to wireless network but do not know how to put the pc on the wifi network

I just purchased an Apple TV. I have a pc running windows 7. It is connected to a router and the router is connected to a wireless router. I connect my iPhone, iPad and apple tv to wireless network but do not know how to put the pc on the wifi network so the Apple TV can do home share.

I don't mean to be facetious but sometimes the simplest things are overlooked. To connect to your library you have to have the computer where the iTunes library is located running and with iTunes open. It also needs to be on the same network. My network is dual band and works with either stream but a friend of mine does not. He has to set the computer and the Apple TV to the same band. Hope this helps.

Hi there, I'm using iOS 10.10.3 and the thing is that Keynote app is not free for me. It supposed to free for iOS 10.10.3 Thank You.

Hi there, I'm using iOS 10.10.3 and the thing is that Keynote app is not free for me. It supposed to free for iOS 10.10.3 Thank You. BTW my device is MacBook Pro Retina Display 13.3 mid 2014.

iOS? I believe you mean Mac OS X 10.10.3
Keynote is only free to purchasers of a new Mac within the first 12 months of purchase.
Upgrading to Yosemite on older Macs does not qualify itself for free upgrades of Keynote.

Lock screen has lost notification icons and replaced with "verizon wireless"

Is there a way to get rid of the "verizon wireless" name on my notification bar when the phone is in lock screen? This changed after the lollipop update. This forces you to unlock screen to see what notifications are pending. I don't need to see that I have verizon wireless. I know my provider.

lol, I agree...a very unnecessary change, seeing how VZW brands the phone enough.

Verizon wireless collection that's not valid. please help?

About 4-5 months ago I decided I wanted to start service with Verizon so I went online and ordered a phone. A few hours later I decided I wanted to keep my current wireless provider so I called Verizon and told them i no longer wanted the device. The order had already shipped but they stopped shipment when it arrived at it's 2nd location so the device never actually made it to me. Ok so i figured everything was all good since the rep said I was all set and it was cancelled. Well, about 3 weeks later I received a bill for a phone i never even received...Ok, no big deal so i called and spoke to someone and they could see the phone was never delivered to me and also no usage on the account so he said he cancelled everything and I have nothing to worry about. Well, last week a Verizon collection popped up on my report for a balance of $200. My score dropped quite a bit due to this. I'm still very calm about everything and thinking, ok this must just be a mix up. Anyway, I send an e-mail to the CEO address and I receive a call about 30 minutes later. He looks up the account and sees that the phone was returned back to their warehouse and I should have never been liable for this debt. I told him I wanted it removed immediately (just as I stated in the e-mail i sent) from my credit reports and he agreed that's what needed to be done since I shoudl have never been liable for this. He put me on hold and came back and said he forwarded it to someone to take care of it and they will have it removed and also a letter will be mailed to me showing it's not my debt or whatever. Woke up yesterday and Verizon updated the collection to "PAID" with a 0$ balance. They can't do that can they?? doesn't the entire trade-line have to be removed?? seeing as they know and agreed I should have never been billed in the first place, let alone sent to collections. I guess I wouldn't care since it has no balance but from reading these forums...a paid collection is just as bad as an unpaid collection as far as your FICO, correct? What can I do to have this removed completely? I haven't contacted VZW yet. Should I contact them again and if no luck, file a complaint with the BBB / CFPB? You guys rock!!!! Thanks in advance.

Wait for your letter to show up also. Like 21 said give it maybe a week or so, don't freak out just yet and see what they do.

Stalled Scrolling and Other Problems- NEED HELP ASAP! HAS NOT BEEN ANSWERED/SOLVED, STILL NEED HELP.

Hello,
Ever since I downloaded Firefox 25, I have had an issue with scrolling. If there was some way to record this, I would, but at this time I cannot, so a description will have to do. If someone knows a way to record what is happening, I will gladly do it to make what I am saying easier to visualize.
On some sites I visit, scrolling will be what can only be described as "choppy"- I will attempt to scroll down, but there will be a small delay before the page responds and scrolls down. Thus, the scrolling does not go smoothly. This mostly happens on sites (tumblr pages especially) with non-scrolling backgrounds (ie backgrounds that do not scroll with the page) on them.
First off, I do not think this is a problem with any extensions, my computer, or the sites themselves. When I open the same pages in Chrome, the issue does not occur and the issue does not occur in all pages.
I have tried clearing the cookies and cache, resetting my browser, disabling hardware acceleration, checking the plugins (problem still happened even when all plugins were disabled), updating my graphics card, and disabling website colors. The first few produced no lasting result/fix, and while disabling website colors did fix the issue, it made the rest of the site/other sites (ones that were working fine) difficult/impossible to use.
One interesting fact of note is this: If I downgrade to Firefox 24, the issue not only disappears, but stays away, and does not occur.
Another fact of note: I have written a previous thread on this issue, but ended up not getting an answer to a second question I had. In the first thread, I was given this possible solution, referring to a bookmarklet I could use/try: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/976244#answer-496960
So my questions here are these:
1) What is going on in Firefox 25 that makes scrolling choppy in that version, but not in version 24 or any other browser except version 25?
2) How exactly do I use that bookmarklet I linked to? Where do I need to place it? How do I get to where I need to place it? How would it work? Is there a way to/Can someone make it into a Greasemonkey (I have Greasemonkey) userscript, if it does work?
Also, is there a way to "bump" my thread without actually commenting on it?

Bumping this. Are my questions showing up for anyone else? Because usually I get fairly prompt answers, but have gotten nothing on my last couple of threads.
I'm sorry if I'm coming off as demanding, but I would like to have this answered, and it's frustrating to not have things at least replied to.

Safari and Firefox problems with wireless network

I have seen similar questions to mine on the forums recently. Here's my story: I have 5 month old Mac Book with Leopard, no airport extreme, just the inbuilt Airport card. I connec through the internet with Netgear. I have been on to Apple support who went through all the checks, nothing wrong they say, and suggest I contact Netgear. This I did, rebooted router, switched on/off, updated firmware. And still the same problems - pages ultra slow to load, messages saying I am not connected to the internet but running network diagnostics informs me I am. I have to resend pages three times to get them to load. It's driving me nuts. A couple of things then: should I check the box for 'remember password in keychain' when I'm loggin on to my own secure network? Maybe the keychain not remembering is slowing it down. I also read that with one of the key chain updates (I update automatically so I presume I did this some time back) the airport card might not work, and safe restart is required. Do I need to do this?
I know Apple don't take responsibility for third party equipment, like the Netgear router, but my mac worked amazingly with the internet until about 2 weeks ago, and I have updated everything with Netgear. Any ideas?

I believe the WebKitPlugInHost needs to be updated for Safari as It crashes whenever I am playing FarmVille on FaceBook.

First day with java: and first problem

Hi friends,
may be i'm hurrying a bit. But i really don't have time. I'm a PHP programmer , trying to shift to java, and i have one week to learn core java, j2ee and blah blah! And here i'm with a confusion.
When i tried implementing servlet , i didn't get any output:
public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException {
System.out.println("init");
but when i tried extending httpServlet , that worked.
whats the problem?
and will be happy to get a few tips.
Thanks.

Your best bet would be to get someone with years of java experience at your side and have him set up your environment and will stand by when you get stuck. There is a LOT to learn that will take far far longer than one week to learn (more like years to get any good). Its a totally unrealistic expectation.
Here's a rundown for a quick start:
* Download and install JDK
* Download and install Eclipse Ganymede IDE
* Download and install Tomcat
* Download and install Tomcat plugin for Eclipse
* Build a hello world JSP page and run it in tomcat
* Build a hello world Servlet and run it in tomcat
* Install a free database such as Oracle Lite or MySql.
* learn how to use the database's free utility to create database tables and grant permission to read/write to them.
* Learn JDBC and get your program to connect to the database and query it.
* Learn MVC design

General and first problem for every one...

i hv posted this question 2nd time.I never think that this question
would hv no reply.surprise for me this common question do not hv answer.
i hv tried j2me 2.0 beta.but its size is too large that i can pick it up to get * and # on its keypad.
plz suggest me if u know.
thanx

Ahh ... now I think I got it!
So the emulated mobile device is too large to display completely on your screen, so that important parts of the buttons etc. remain unseen!!??
Hmm - I really haven't used the beta 2.0 yet - but I will do so in the near future.
Seems like a trivial suggestion, but shouldn't turning up the resolution of your display be able to solve the problem?
If you already are at a maximum I can see your point.
Seems strange that Sun would supply oversized stuff... what is your maximum resolution by the way?
Other than that - maybe there are different devices to choose from? Like in the WTK104?
But this really is just guessing around - I think I'll just download it myself!

New GPU Quadro k5200 installed and having problem with my AE, PPro CS6 not using the GPUs cuda.

Hi guys, I recently bought a workstation from BOXX tech with a new GPU Quadro k5200 installed in it.
I am having problem with my AE, PPro CS6 using the GPUs cuda.
I went to Nvidia Settings and use the specific App to select it to use GPU n- Quadro k5200. But still not working.
Please help

If you edited the Cudatextfile in the Adobe Premiere CS6 directory correctly then the acceleration should be enabled. The only way it it's not is if you have the wrong driver for that version of Adobe or did not edit the text file with the exact name of the card. You can use the GPUsniffer in that same Premiere directoy with the command prompt to see the name the GPU should be listed as. The Ray Tracer file in AE has to be edited with the same listing.

HT201302 Why after I imported my photos to my MAC and deleted them from my iPhone did it not free up any space in icloud on my iPhone?

Can someone please help me? I have an iPhone w/the usual 5GB of storage on icloud and it is almost full. I recently purchased a MAC and imported the 1100 photos that were taking up all that space however, after importing and deleting all but about 200 photos I freed up no space. Am I missing something?

Yes.
Deleting content from your iphone has no affect on your icloud storage.

I am 19 days from my contract needing to be renewed and I broke my screen. How far in advance can you renew before the actual renew day?

I am 19 days from my contract needing to be renewed and I broke my screen. How far in advance can you renew before the actual renew day?

Basically it is on the day your contract ends. However some Verizon wireless corporate store managers can over ride that and update possibly a week early. But its iffy.
Now Verizon will let you upgrade to the Edge program but you have a broken device and they will prey on you since you are desperate for a device. Edge plan is paying full price over 20 months and paying taxes on it up front, you then after paying 60% of the device off can edge up to another device. Now if you pay 60% off at anytime after 30 days you can continue to trade them in for new as much as you want.
Or you can wait it out get a new free device under contract or reduced cost device again under a 2 year contract.
The edge plan is no contract.
Good Luck

Verizon Wireless keeps dropping the ball.

Back in March 2012 I was tired of the billing issues T-Mobile had with Suncom UnPlan users and decided to start shopping for another account.
My employer had a discount at all of the major Wireless Providers.
I called Sprint then AT&T saving Verizon for last. Both Sprint and AT&T had decent rates but when I called Verizon the sales agent made a compelling quote.
He offered me the 2000 Minute Family plan with Unlimited Talk and Text for $120 for 5 lines. He then offered me a smartphone for free with 4GB data for $30 more per month plus I would get a 20% discount. This rate was within my budget and about the same as the rate I had with T-Mobile. He gave me an estimate of the monthly cost and it was around the $150 rate. I agreed to the deal and we conferenced with the 3rd party for the contract.
I received my phones fairly quickly. I also quickly noticed the Verizon Coverage was not as good as T-Mobile especially in my house. Verizon shipped a free network extender to cover that gap. After about 1.5 months of service I received my first bill and it was huge. They had charged me activation charges for the lines that was not discussed by the salesman plus they had added $50 of monthly line charges and partial pro rated line charges that I was not quoted.
I called Verizon ready to disconnect. I ended up talking to Executive Support who corrected the billing but to my concern they did it by adding a "promotion" that would expire and I would have to call to have re-added once it expired. At least the bill was correct and I paid the same rate for a year as a loyal paying customer. Once the year had passed the "promotion" dropped and I had to go through a huge hassle to have it re-added again but they did, I was also encouraged to drop to the 1400 minute plan since I wasn't using very many minutes.
In October 2013, I contacted Verizon exec support to see if I could take advantage of some phones Best Buy was selling and to make sure my rate would not increase. The agent helped me do early upgrades and said everything should be fine. But, after the year was up they added the $50 monthly charges again. I called back to have the bill corrected and they said they would contact a department to see if they can put the "promotion" back on my account. I did not receive a call back. 1.5 months passed and I was getting the dirty Verizon calls where they didn't leave a message and answered one of them. It was billing wanting me to make a payment. I had been paying monthly, and the same rate monthly but they were wanting more but they had not contacted me back. I was hung up on 2 times in the IVR system then finally spoke to an agent. She promised to have a supervisor on the line and after about 45 minutes of trying she promised they would call me back which they did not. I then contacted VerizonWireless on Twitter having a very public expression of my ordeal and also getting quotes from Sprint and AT&T responding to those very Tweets. AT&T wants my service for $155/mo for 5 lines, 2 smartphones, 10GB shared Data, unlimited talk and text which is very comparable to what I have been paying Verizon without the $50 line charges. I finally was able to get an Executive support person on the phone and she was rude, un-understanding, and ended up rudely hanging up on me. I called back to support and wanted to complain against her and her refusal to escalate along with the hangup. I was promised again a callback. At one point I had told the Executive support exactly what I want out of this situation.... either:
1) Correct the billing, Remove the $50 monthly charges as my verbal agreement in the initial sales call was defined.
or
2) Remove all charges, no disconnect charges, we can wash our hands of each other and I will begin anew with AT&T.
Before hanging up on me she offered a $200 one time credit but no permanent billing fix. She welcomed the disconnection of my service and offered no termination charges for one of my 2 lines still in contract. I informed her I did not consider being within any contract once they breeched it by adding charges that were not agreed to in the original sales call/contract.
After contacting Customer Service again the agent I spoke with was appalled by the way I was treated and assured me they would escalate to the level beyond the agent who hung up on me and promised a callback. She also noted that the account shows they had offered a $200 credit every 4 months which exactly offsets those monthly charges and I told her that was EXACTLY the kind of thing that could resolve this for us and I was good with that. She said she would apply the credit and it should show up within 3 business days. I continued to check and almost 2 weeks passed. No credit has been added.
I called back again tonight 6/27 and asked the agent when the credit would be applied... She told me the credit was pending a supervisor approval and couldn't guarantee me that it will ever be applied. I explained how many hours I worked on this and the time I have invested along with the mental anguish. She wanted to consult with someone after she had me tell her the whole story again and was away from the phone for some times. Once she came back she pushed the point everyone at Verizon wants to make telling me the promotion expired. I had to keep explaining the promotion was only placed on my account to correct the billing issue caused by the rate the sales agent had sold the service to me. I told her I didn't care what they wanted to call the price correction as long as my bill was back down to the affordable rate. She wasted 1 hour of my time tonight. Again I have the promise of a callback. I thought 2 weeks again this issue was totally resolved but it appears it is happening again.
Now I must mention the other issues I have had with Verizon. And the other hours of calls related to the LG phones sent to me originally and how I had to send d back 8 piece of junk phones with issues such as charging issues, non responding keys, screen not responding, microphone failure, etc. And the torture it took to get Verizon to send replacement Samsung phones for these units. Verizon wrongly made me purchase all of the back plates and batteries instead of providing those.
Another issue was he hassle I had with BestBuy where they couldn't sell me the phones due to Verizon having my Droid Charge showing up as an Unknown Device in the system. This disrupted the BestBuy system and cost me hours of support on the phone/ at the store/ backing up lines. Etc. Best Buy was at the point where they were just going to give us the phones because of all of the trouble. All of the trouble stemmed from how Verizon changed the phone to an Unknown device in punishment for having an unlocked device.
Another issue was with coverage at my Son's college. They had almost zero coverage and Verizon support put in a ticket to investigate. They found it was due to coverage. The agent that put in the ticket said they would provide him a range extender at no cost if they found it to be an issue with coverage. When I called back to have the range extender shipped they balked. The person on the phone pretty much called me a liar and I had to go through executive support again to have the range extender sent to resolve his problems.
All said, Verizon has an investment in me, they have provided 2 range extenders. The have corrected errors that resulted in activation fees. They corrected pricing errors by adding a counter acting "promotion". They still are more expensive than AT&T even without those line charges. Why can't I just have the original deal honored. Why does my time and investment selecting a service, listening to a sales pitch, accepting a deal, not count for anything? Why must I spend hours on the phone to get things corrected? Why was I sold a non-standard plan? Why do I have to shop again for service? Why not just honor the original deal? Why is Verizon more expensive than AT&T? Why does Sprint/AT&T/ and T-mobile have better coverage locally than Verizon?
Please send this information to the CEO.

I'm not sure you fully read/understood my wordy post. A sales agent made an offer (verbal contract) which I used to select Verizon's service. There was no "pro ration" talk. I know most people probably physically travel to a dealer and make their wireless purchase, this was not the case for me. I did not sign a contract. I listened to the telephone salesman's sales pitch, entering into the contract on his word. I did not use any other method to "validate" his offer as I trusted him as an agent of Verizon Wireless and took his word much like you would accept the word of a car dealer if he told you the price of a car also included free oil changes and a free tank of gas monthly. If you went to the dealer and they started charging for oil changes and gas after the sale was made based on the salesman's offer, it would be a breech of the verbal contract and it is very likely that a lawsuit would award the plaintiff a victory (If there was any way to prove the wording of the verbal contract). Lucky for me, Verizon Wireless records their sales calls and a third party is engaged to verbally witness the contract "signing". Though my wordy story is confusing due to the convolution Verizon has spun into this web, the issue here is entirely based on the initial offer I accepted from the sales agent. I would not have selected Verizon's service if the offer had been $50 more per month like they are now trying to charge me.
I understood your post just fine. What I am pointing out is the fact that the customer agreement specifically states no other "contract," verbal or written, overrides the customer agreement.
"This agreement and the documents it incorporates form the entire agreement between us. You can't rely on any other documents, or on what's said by any Sales or Customer Service Representatives, and you have no other rights regarding Service or this agreement. This agreement isn't for the benefit of any third party except our parent companies, affiliates, subsidiaries, agents, and predecessors and successors in interest. Except where we've agreed otherwise elsewhere in this agreement, this agreement and any disputes covered by it are governed by federal law and the laws of the state encompassing the area code of your wireless phone number when you accepted this agreement, without regard to the conflicts of laws and rules of that state."
So, no, there was no other binding contract you or Verizon entered into. Their customer agreement is quite clear about that. No analogy or comparison to any other type of service or contract applies here. You consented to the customer agreement which includes the above statement. I am not saying I agree with it or like it, but that is the contract you agreed to.
The recorded call and third party witness won't help you. It doesn't matter what the agent said, or what anyone witnessed other than the Verizon Wireless Customer Agreement. Having said that, the contract for service doesn't include pricing, only that you will maintain service for the duration of the agreement. The plan, pricing, and features are not part of it. Neither is a guarantee of an employee discount. If you have a discount that applies when you sign up for service and then change employers during that time, you will lose the original discount as it is not part of the contract. Additionally, the customer agreement states that no class action lawsuits are allowed.
