Creative T4 wierd behaviour, help wanted from another owner please

Hi there
Got a set of these a month ago. If you alter the volume with the remote, the unit then responds to any other IR remote when you press and hold a key down. Eventually got the unit replaced under warranty to find the new unit does the exact same thing. I am looking for a helpful T4 owner to try to replicate this please.
If anyone could please do the following and report back, it would help a lot....
Set the T4 to digital input
Reduce the volume to zero using the creative remote
Increase the volume slightly using the creative remote
Point a different remote at the unit and press and hold a key
On mine the volume increases and the orange light flashes indicating it is receiving a signal.
This behaviour can be cancelled by pressing a key other than volume on the creative remote.
My thinking is that the chances of 2 units having the same fault is quite small and am wondering if this is a design fault.
Many thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

I thought I would post my thoughts on Creative as a company. I purchased their flagship speaker system back in February and the system has a fault with the remote volume control. Communication with Creative CS is slow and laborious but eventually they offer a firmware update that renders the speakers inoperable. I am requested to send the speakers back which are replaced with a set that has the exact same problem. I have been waiting ever since for a reply from the so called technical people.
My thoughts are 2 sets with the exact same problem is far more than coincidence. It is not my environment that is to blame as I have tested the speakers in different buildings (work and home), same problem. I have tried to communicate this to Creative but at every point, I am just told to be patient. I have had the speakers too long now to return and as yet, no one can or wants to answer my question.
My point is be very careful buying Creative products, especially the T4 speaker system. If you need help, I'm sorry to say, the assistance is very poor.
I feel sorry for the poor bloke within Creative who is acting as the go between on this one. He seems a nice chap but I think he is experiencing the same thing as I am, in that no one seems to care about the customer.
I had expected much better from Creative and their flagship product.

  • CS5 - Help copy from another application and paste into CS5

    I am not able to copy an image from another application and paste into my CS5 image.
    I can paste the image into any other program except for CS5.
    Does anyone know how this issue can be fixed?  Very frustrating, since it is such a simple process.
    Thanks!

    You probably have at least one plug-in made by Nik Software.  They're known to interfere with Photoshop's ability to access the clipboard.
    I believe there's a Nik configuration file change needed, or possibly a removal of all or part of the plug-in to restore Photoshop's access to the clipboard.  There's another thread on this forum that's gotten quite long on the subject, and in it are some possible resolutions...  Ah, here it is:  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/680075

  • Help wanted from Gurus?

    I want to know the very easy explainations of VoIP technology. I am not a telecommunications person. But i am well in computer based networks. I want to know the very basic terms related to VoIP with easy and understandable explainations. Pls tell me the site or any other sourve from where i can got knowledge of VoIP very easily.

    Voice over IP is actually quite simple - spoken voice is digitized and placed into an IP packet for transmission to the destination as an IP data packet across your network, then converted back to spoken voice at the receiver's handset.
    That's the quick layman's (lay-person's) terms. Inbetween is a huge cavern of what-ifs that alter the type of network used to carry these voice packets, how packets are assured for delivery, how the LAN and the WAN are engineered to support voice, what form of Quality of Service is used, etc.
    This link may be a good start to get you more info.

  • How can I uninstall a previously installed version of Aperature from another owner?

    Hi,
    I purcased my iMac from a previous owner.  His version of Aperature is still on it - registered under his AppleID.  I would like to uninstall it as it is preventing me from using my own version of iPhoto.  How can I do this?  Would it be asvisable to uninstall it and then purchase a new version of Aperature and then convert my iPhoto library to Aperature?  Right now, iPhoto wont launch becuase it wants me to upgrade Aperature, but I don't own a registered copy to my Apple ID, so I can't upgrade it.
    My setup is:
    iMac 27" 12,2
    3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
    32GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6970M 2048MB
    OS X 10.9.2 (13C64)
    Aperature 3.2.4
    iPhoto 9.5.1
    Thank you!

    The previous owner of that machine should have wiped it and install the original OS that shipped with the system leaving the system at the point where the new owner takes over and enters all there own information.
    Before you go much further with this machine you should seriously consider backing up any new stuff you have done and wiping it and starting from scratch. If you keep the system like it is you  will be plagued with problems. Even doing OS updates will prove frustrating.
    Right now the best you can do is to move the Aperture that is on the system into the trash, log into the App Store using your ID and buying Aperture. That should work but to be honest I have never had to do it so can;t say for sure.
    You might want to look at this What to do before selling or giving away your Mac from Apple to read what they recommend.
    good luck

  • How can you reset a password if you received the computer from another owner and they didn't give you the CD that came with the computer or the password

    I brought a MacBook Pro on ebay and the owner didn't send the CD and it is still password locked. How can I get into the computer?

    You have posted to the OS X Server forum, your question is Mac computer question.
    Which password - account password, firmware password?
    You should get the CD and/or password from the seller or take the unit to an Apple service center. There are many pages, some dubious, about how to get into Macs but I am not going to post them here. If you are legit you will not mind taking the machine into an Apple service center.

  • Yoga 3 Pro or Yoga 2 Pro? Opinions from dual owners please

    Hi,
    I'm tossing up between the Yoga 2 Pro and the Yoga 3 Pro.
    I like the design of the 3 very much, and the weight.
    I will run Ofiice apps, Photoshop CS6 on the road, and lightroom 5.7.
    Any pros and cons from dual users with experience of this software in daily use would be apprecited.
    Regards,
    David.

    I will be doing a video review on my experience soon but here are some points I can tell you already -
    1) It is a great travelling companion, movies, videos, songs, small gaming is all perfect.
    2) Battery life is really nice, I watched 3.5 hour long Lord of the rings and still had about 60% left
    3) Pretty light and rotates 360 degrees, very comfortable to use in any and every mode.
    4) Does not get hot, remains cool.
    5) Exquisite looks especially the Bright orange color, which is my fav.
    6) Screen is beautiful and everything is crisp (I use it at 1080p)
    7) Some apps are very useful like ShareIt, transfer data from android, iphone etc in seconds over a wifi network.
    8) Performance is good for browsing as well.
    9) Boots in 3-5 seconds
    10) Keyoard is backlit and very nice but shallow, trackpad is an absolute delight.
    2 finger taps, 2 finger swipes, 3 finger swipes, 2 finger zoom, 2 finger scrolling of pages, everything is smooth and responsive.
    11) Sound quality is awesome as well, very loud and clear. Enough bass to provide enjoyable experience.
    What you should not expect -
    1) Heavy graphics intensive tasks.
    2) Lags a bit on some web pages scrolling (NOT noticeable)
    3) Some software which are useless and can be uninstalled.
    I typed this whole post on my Yoga 3 Pro and it is a great for me to type on this beauty.
    Going to watch a movie now.

    Hi People!
    Please help...I want to know how can i get photos from ipad to the computer, that were synchronized previously to ipad but from another pc that i dont have access anymore and these pics are now only found in this ipad and no other place.

    Hi Alan,
    Thanks for the help, but i've actually done that before.
    It does not help, because it only shows the photos on the camera roll and do not show the photos synchronized with that pc that i dont have access anymore.
    The photos/albums all appear on the ipad, i can see it without problems but i cant get them out of the ipad to save onto pc for backup.
    And i reaaly need it, as it is the only place that i actually have these photos now...

    I'm using a Mac.  I "upgraded" to LR5 from LR4.  I do not want to be a member of the "Creative Cloud".  I just want to use the software I purchased, specifically to upload to my SmugMug account.  Is there a way to use an add-on to do this?  Aperture and LR4 were easy but I'm finding it impossible without subscribing to CC.

    Sorry, maybe I don't understand, but why do you feel compelled to subscribe to CC if you already have a permanent Lightroom 5 licence?
    For the SmugMug plugin, a simple Google search ("smugmug lightroom plugin") gives this link to download the plugin:  http://help.smugmug.com/customer/portal/articles/121321
    Another way is to click the button "Find more services online..." in the the Publish Service section of Lightroom, and to search for SmugMug in the Adobe Add-ons portal; you will find a link to the latest plugin: https://creative.adobe.com/addons/products/1755

  • Trying to install SL on a new hard-drive for my iMac, when asked which disk to install on it gave me no options, i followed advice from another forum and created a partition, now can't boot from the new drive at all. Help?

    I've had **** with my iMac, the hard-drive failed so i replaced it with a new 1TB Samsung drive. Then when i tried to install SL from the install disk, all went to plan until it asked me which drive i wanted to install it on, where it came up with a box where my options should have been, but instead it didn't give me any options to install it on any drive i.e. it asked which drive i wanted to install it on but no drives came up to select.
    So i followed the advice from another forum, look at the 'Extended Hard-drive preparation' response
    ( https://discussions.apple.com/message/10576009#10576009 )
    After following these instructions i have now got a new partition, but when i restarted my computer to install SL on the drive, the option to boot from the drive is now not available, now i must boot from the install disk, whereas before i was able to boot from either the install disk or the hard drive. The hard drive is still visible in disk utility as it always has been, but i am now unable to boot from it, let alone install SL.
    Please help my iMac has been broken for months and i've been trying to fix it for so long and am getting problem after problem. Thank you!

    Hi db2
    That off the shelf MS-DOS / FAT-32 drive needs to re-partitioned GUID Partition Table / Mac OS Extended (Journaled) before you can install OS X and Startup your Intel iMac from it.
    1. Boot from your original install or retail SL DVD and open Disk Utility.
    2. Highlight the new HD in the list of drives and select the Partition tab.
    3. Under Volume Scheme select 1 Partition and click on the Options... button.
    4. Select GUID Partition Table in the drop down window and click OK.
    5. Set the Format to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and click the Apply button.
    6. Once thats done, then you can do a clean SL Install, Restore from TM , your old HD or  Bootable Clone.

  • How can I edit my website from another computer? and how can I create a new website next to the one, I have already? Can anyone help, please?

    How can I edit my website from another computer? and how can I create a new website next to the one, I already have? Can anyone help, please?

    Move the domain.sites file from one computer to the other.
    The file is located under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites.  Move this file to the same location on the other computer and double click and iWeb will open it.  Remember, it is your User Library that you want and not your System Library, as you will not find iWeb there.
    Just create a new site on the same domain file and it will appear below the other site.  If you want them side by side then duplicate your domain file and have one site per a domain file and they can then be side by side.

I would like to have all my imported new photo's also bee added to the directory structure I have in Finder but my new photo's are all in iPhoto.  I want to use directories for storing and iPhoto for viewing.  Is this possible or do I need to have all my photo's in iPhoto??
    Mitch

    iPhoto is not a Photo Viewer. It's a Photo Manager and designed for looking after the files while you organise the Photos. It really works much better if you let it manage those files. If you use iPhoto you never go near those files because iPhoto is your start point for anything you want to do with your Photos - the point of the pplication.
    You can run iPhoto in Referenced mode, where it does not copy the files to the Library, but I caution you that you are making life a lot more difficult for yourself by doing that.
    How to, and some comments on why you shouldn't, are in this thread

    Hello, HenryWang2103.
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    The Safari, Email and Notes applications are native to the iOS and is unable to be deleted.  Since this is the case, they are either in a folder on the iPhone, on another page or Restrictions are enabled.  You can also search for these Apps on the iPhone by touching the screen and sliding your finger down.  Here is some information regarding these features.  The information about folders is located in the user guide below.
