Disks with labels don't work in my drive

when i put my own label on to a disk and then try to play it in my drive it won't play and makes a horrible sound....like the disk is grinding to a halt, which i guess it is. the labels are put on correctly with no bumps or tears. when i put in a movie with a factory made label it plays fine.
do i need a new optical drive?
thanks,mike

I've discovered that the slot-loading drives on my three regularly used Macs absolutely hate CDs or DVDs with sticky labels. They give me the same problems that you describe.
I can't play these discs, nor can I extract any files from them.
I eventually purchased an Epson printer that allows me to print directly on a disc's surface. As for all those discs I have with sticky labels, I really can only use them in a stereo.

How do I get sounds back? I don't know when an email arrives and my apps with songs don't work

How do I get my sounds back? My apps with songs don't work and I don't know when a message or email arrives.
Thanks

Is it on mute? There is a switch on the side which may be mute or rotation lock. If it locks the rotation, double tap the home button and swipe your finger to the right. You should see volume, brightness, etc... On the far left is a button to mute or lock rotation. Make sure it is not on. If you still can't hear anything, go to settings> general> sounds> ringer and alerts and slide the dot to the right.
Hope this helps!

Why the 3G connection with Wind don't work on iPhone 4S (iOS 5.0)??

Why the 3G connection with Wind don't work on iPhone 4S (iOS 5.0)??

Because Wind is not an officially supported iPhone carrier and Apple warns that using an iPhone on a non-supported carrier's network may mean that some features may not be available or work at all.

Templates with Flash don't work

Hello,
I have several pages with templates, but with the new Flash
player, the swf that are included in the templates don't work, they
do'nt appear in the webpage.
Any help please!!

It's IE-only behaviour as a result of changes Microsoft made
last
year to their browser, regarding how Active Content (Flash,
Quicktime etc)
is handled, after losing a high profile court case.

Creative Live! Cam (VF0400) with Skype (don't work)

Hi Guys,
This is getting pretty desperate... as this is actually my 3rd unusable webcam for my iBook (OS X 10.4.11):(
I checked the macam website and the list said this webcam works but I can't seem to get it to work with Skype. It works with the Macam app but Skype don't recognise it. Anyone with prior experience please help because I can't seem to find any info on the Skype's help dbase.
Any help is appreciated!

Hello Moses,
I once had the same problem as you. Did you do everything the readme file said? Where I'm going to: did you copy the macam.component file to the Quicktime library folder? If not copy it to the /Library/Quicktime/ folder. It should work just fine.
Best regards

BEx Analyzer buttons withing planning don't work

Hello,
I tried to create a little planning application with BEx Analyzer. For this I tried different ways (my last try using: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b0a89464-f697-2910-2ba6-9877e3088954) but my problem is that the created buttons don't work.
If I enter a value into the key figure field and press "refresh data" or "save data" in both cases the value is set back to 0 and my entered value doesn't appear anywhere.
I checked the input-ready query by using the Query Designer. Both key figures can be changed by user entry or planning function.
Are there any other things I have to check or change?
Thanks for your help!
Bettina

Hi D,
but if it would be locked it wouldn't be possible to enter a value - would it? I can add a value into the field but afterwards when using the button it disappears and becomes 0 again.
Here's a more detailed description:
I created a input-ready query on a aggregation level which contains sales man number, calender year/month, customer number and planned turnover.
I opened this query with the BEx Analyzer and executed the steps described in the PDF for which I added the link before in my first post in this thread. I implemented this HowTo until the popup messages.
I did some planning tries before on the planning wizard in the portal . There it was possible to add values (my test data I also created with the planning wizard but without adding a turnover value) and to save them.
There's no other planning function implemented yet. For the first step I just want to have the possibility to enter turnover values manually by using the workbook with the input-ready query. Nothing more.

Since last upgrade (tablet under Android), websites with frames don't work.

All apps are up to date. Since last Firefox upgrade, web sites with frames no longer work properly : frames are outside of screen at bottom. Chrome and other browsers work fine... but I prefer Firefox.

I view this page from home web page ([http://www.ville-fondettes.fr/ http://www.ville-fondettes.fr/] ), staying in Firefox app.
This web site isn't very well designed but was working well with previous version of Firefox.
I found other web sites but a private account is needed. I try to find other examples with the same issue.

TS2634 My iphone headphones with microphone don't work. Any suggestions?

My iphone headphones with microphone have stopped working, and they are under warranty. I am having difficulty getting an answer about what to do from Apple - just got off the phone with them, and they emailed me an article that was of no help at all. Any suggestions as to how I can resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

All, I have this same problem and has just solved it on my iPhone.
I read up on the problem at att.com/esupport and arrived at the link below:
https://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB413495#fbid=ahhj00ALH45
"If your email address is linked to your AT&T Access ID, changing your AT&T Access ID password automatically changes your email password to the same password.
If you use your email address as your AT&T Access ID, changing your email password automatically changes your AT&T Access ID password to the same password."
I have a ATT Uverse (for my internet access) acct and could not log on so I requested for password reset. They sent me temp password and I had to change my password to my Uverse acct. I use my att.net email as the log on for my Uverse acct. Per att instructions above, my Uverse acct is linked to my att.net email, so now my att.net email pw has been changed to the pw for my Uverse acct.
Accordingly, go into your iPhone Settings, Mail, Contacts, Calendars, choose your Att.net mail acct and change your password. In my case I changed it to the new pw I had set up for my Uverse acct and it works.
Before doing this, I had also added new servers as shown below. The way I see it because your iPhone will try in succession to log on to each server from top to bottom of the list, it's best to add all the mail servers.
smtp.mail.yahoo.com
smtp.mail.att.net
outbound.att.net
Please note that I did not have to add "imap.mail.att.net" and my Att.net mail on my iPhone still works.
Hope this helps.

Application's run-time shortcut menus don't work on local drive.

The run-time menus in my application don't work, unless I run the application from the location where it is built. This project has an application build specification, and an installer build specification. The installer specification, copies the app to the local drive. But the run-time shortcut menus do not work when the app runs. Nothing happens when I right click on the control. However if I run the same app from the network drive, where the application build spec builds it, it runs fine. When I have the application build spec build the app directly to the local drive, it works fine. The exe, ini and aliase files are identical. Why does this app run differently depending on which drive it's on? How can I fix it so the run-time shortcut menus work on the target machine? Any ideas?

Hello, I believe that when you create a custom run-time menu it gets saved to a file. My guess is that you are not including this file as part of the build specification for the application. The file likely exists in the build directory but does not on the target directory which is why it no longer works. If that does not fix the problem, let me know and I will see if I can figure something else out.

Unable to write to External Hard Drive, Disk Utility options don't work.

I am a recent new user of Apple Mac from when I bought this Macbook Air 3 months ago.
Nice machine, but difficult to get the hang of.
Specific problem I'd like help with please is to enable me to write to my Samsung S2 Portable Hard Drive (500GB)
I can see it and read files, but can't save to the EHD.
In Disk Utility, all options to verify and repair the EHD are greyed out. So, most of the friendly suggestions on other threads don't help me.
I don't know how big the hard drive is on my Macbook (nor how to find out), or how much remaining space there is, but there is over 400GB of data on the EHD.
The EHD is in NTFS format, all data on it was from Windows computers. There isn't space on my Windows laptop for all this data.
I don't have another EHD, so have nowhere to move the data to if I have to reformat the EHD.
On another thread I saw a suggestion to uninstall something or other before reformatting the EHD, but I don't even know how to uninstall programs on a Macbook.
I don't know why Apple have to spoil such a great machine by making it so difficult for non-afficionados to use (sorry, frustrated).
I say "great" because it's so light it makes work much easier. I can carry it around all day with little effort and don't have to take the charger to work.
Any help anyone could offer with the EHD will be appreciated.
Thanks...........

Hi Limnos,
Yes, I'm new to Mac, having bought this Macbook 3 months ago after years of Windows (as stated in my original post).
I still have a Windows laptop and all my work colleagues currently use Windows, so I need compatibility with both.
Paragon sounds like a good option, and I don't mind a bit of cost if it sorts the problem.
Hopefully I'll get feedback from someone who has used Paragon and can report how effective it is and whether or not there are any problems asociated with it.
Good tip thanks about the Disk Utility, I'll look into that.
Thanks........

Tecra A10-14Q: 3G modem with UMTS don't work with Vista 64bit

Hello,
after Vista 64 bit drivers have been made available, I switched the installed hard disk and did a clean install of Vista Business, along with the drivers that Toshiba posted.
Everything is fine, except that the Wireless Manager accepts the SIM card PIN, but only shows "Transmitter deactivated" ("Sender deaktiviert" in the German version). I can't find a clue where the problem is.
In the device manager window the 3G modem is fine and functional, the PIN is correct and accepted, and I have the latest drivers installed.
Shutting down the notebook and switching the hard drive again gets me back to Vista Business 32 bit and the UMTS card is working fine?
Any help to resolve this is appreciated.
Kind regards,
YaGru

Thank you vey much for this feedback and that you share this information with others here in the forum.

E4200 router, wmp600n wireless adapters and mapped drives with wpa2 don't work!

Sigh
I have a file server running windows 2003 and five computers (1 windows 7, 4 windows xp-sp3).
There are two shares on the server.
When the router is setup with wpa2, three of the windows xp machines will have problems with mapped drives. Directly after the drives are mapped, everything works, but 10 or so hours later, users can no longer access these mapped drives and there is no way to reconnect them it seems.
The other two machines (windows 7 and one windows xp machine) have no problems whatsoever.
The only thing that the three computers have in common is that they are also sharing a printer (an hp j4680) attached to one windows xp machine (not the server).
If I set everything to wpa, everything works fine, but of course my wireless network speeds drop to 56mbps.
Thoughts?

Peanut, I appreciate your effort, but I don't think you truly understand what is going on.
FWIW and for those experiencing similar oddities, On a mixed network of Windows Server 2003, Windows XP and Windows 7 machines, several Windows XP machines would on boot up decide that the router was the master browser. This made file shares on the server inaccessible to these machines. All machines were using wmp600n adapters.
All computers had excellent signal strength and could access the internet without fail.
What was not immediately evident to me was I was also having email issues where certain XP machines could not receive or send (sometimes one, sometimes both) pop email. I suspected it was a port blocking issue by the ISP since this problem was intermittent.
What was clear though is that in each of the machines that exhibited the problem that computer was seeing the browser as the browser master. So finally, I swapped out the router with another branded router. This is not the only case of this router behaving this way--in my searches I have run into several other people who have had issues with file sharing so I don't know if it is a model deficiency or firmware issue.
All I know is the all the problems went away with the router switch. File shares work. Email works.
So, I got a bad router that appeared to function properly--assuming this is not the case with other e4200s. I will know after RMAing this one.

Drill functionality on filter bar of Webi with BEx don't work

Hi experts!
I'm with the same problem that other thread Drill Functionality not working. I'm working with webi and BEx on BO 4.0 SP5 Patch 2.
There is a fix prevision for this problem or a SAP note about this?

Hi Gustavo,
As you can read from that thread, the feature you would like to have is extremely complex, there will be some new capabilites with hierarchies in BI4.1 but I don't think this is among them.
Thanks and regards,

PDF addresses not longer load and display PDF in Firefox and solutions suggest to other users with problem DON'T WORK (work fine in Chrome and Safari)

This is an ongoing problem with other users. When putting a PDF in address window of Firefox and clicking go to address FIREFOX WILL NOT LOAD AND DISPLAY THE PDF. This problem has come up in questions from other users on your site. NONE OF THE SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS WORK! (trying either the Firefox PDF viewer or the Acrobat viewer as default viewer)
I am using Firefox 23.0.1 (as some of the other users with the same problem). This was not a problem in the past with Firefox. Safari and Chrome continue load and display PDFs just fine from their addresses. This is a big problem as I now have to inform people who want to view my PDFs NOT TO USE FIREFOX BUT TO USE SAFARI OR CHROME.

It appears that a link to a PDF on an internet page will not download in Firefox either!
I went to this page:
http://www.nasa.gov/connect/ebooks/earth_art_detail.html#.UjYEzrwsU08
and tried to download the PDF link at the bottom of the page (Download: PDF 11.3 MB) It didn't work! Nothing happens. Tried it in Safari and it worked flawlessly.
I have a PDF file of my work in the public_html folder on my URL. I give the address generated by that file to people who want to view my work---this works perfectly in Safari and Chrome. As to your other question, can't bookmark it if I can't get to it in Firefox.
