Very high sync speed but very low ip profile!! Ple...
Hello everyone.
I have been a BT customer for almost 4 yrs now, with little or no issues during my time with them. Until now!
About 2 months ago i mustve signed upto the 20mb bb, as my 8mb bb, was working great but i though why not to the extra speed. So i sign up, and i get about 17.8mb sync rate, GREAT im thinking. SLowly, i did not realise my bb kept dropping out and eventually it lowered the sync rate everytime and eventually it halted at a 4.5mb sync. I am thinking how is this possible, i had 8mb bb and it used sync at 8.1mb without fail and speeds were excellent.
So i called them logged a fault, on 21/11/2010. I explained to them what had happened, they understood, tried to do a few things their end, however nothing change, so they booked in an engineer for 22/11/2010. he came and saw everyhting was fine (i wasnt home at the time, my mum was) so did really have a chance ot explain properly, but i told him what i could over the phone whil i was at work, and advised your premises seems to be fine, must be exchange. OK . Bt followed up asking is everything resolved,i said no changes, speed it still slow.They booked another engineer for 7/12/2010.
He came, i happed to stay home this time, and i explained to him what is happening. He checked everything, ran some line tests, and notices my line can hand 16mb but it seems to have capped. he got the cap removed and it synced at 17.9mb, im thinking AWESOME. He checked the mains, even replaced the socket, because i had a old battered one, which was excellent. He advised give it few hours the ip profile should reset itself, just keep monitoring it. He also advised if your bb line kept dropping, then it would keep lowering the sync rate and this has what had happened originally. He also advise if it starts happening again, connect the router directly the mains as it was currently on the extension socket down stairs. Once he left, as adivsed i monitored and i kept seeing it was dropping off and very very frequently like every 10 minutes. So i took his advised connected the router to the mains upstairs with a filter and it has not dropped since. this was 2 days, 2hrs 31mins ago.
However my ip profile has not changed. my sync rate has increased by more than 400% and has been very stable as i have notice with NO drop out.
I have been doing research, i have read any major sync increases the ip profile should reset within a few hrs, but as you can see it hasnt in more than 48hrs. I know i should wait maybe another 24hrs but i dont think it would make a difference. I phoned BT yday and they stated this the best your line can handle, i explained to them the history of speed and the recent incident, but told me nothing can be done and this the best i can get, they wud not understand my connection syncing how it should but the profile is stopping me from enjoying it!
I was wondering is there any way i can get this sorted, so i can enjoy really fast broadband?

PLEASE PLEASE, can anyone help me in getting this sorted, i know what my line is capable and i know its faster than this.
Thank you in advance and let me know if any more information is required. THanks once again.Similar situation here. I fitted a BT accelerator a month after the switch to ADSL2+ to get that last little bit of speed and instead it caused repeated dropouts. My IP profile got hammered and SNR set crazily high as a result.
Removed the accelerator and have a rock solid line again. That was 3 weeks ago and my profile is now at 12000 with SNR down to 12db. Hopefully will be back to where I was before the accelerator some time by the end of January.
I am using a Dlink 2460 so could force the SNR down with DMT software but am holding off at the moment as BT's profiling is so aggressive I don't want to give it any excuse to hammer my line again. -
My phone wont let me download anything even free stuff or update.it keep saying something wrong with my billing info so i fix it but still cant download.I signed out sign back in still nothing please help i'm getting angry
If it says your billing info is wrong that means that your credit card issuer is refusing to approve your account. You will have to solve the problem with your bank or credit card company.

Since I upgrade to Lion OS my optical drive stop working can't read or write at all I did what I could to fix it but still not working , any help please
It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

I have upgraded Snow Leopard with Combo 10.6.8, the supplemental update and fixed permissions, but still can't open app store to upgrade to Mountain Lion. I am on the Cayman Islands. Thanks for the help!
Don't be afraid to bump this topic. There's also an App Store forum where you might repost this question, but give some of these details in your post. I'd rephrase the topic to something like "Can't use App Store to upgrade." (Instead of can't "open".) Then give the details.

Cable fault in street fixerd but still low IP prof...
Hi im Joe, new to this forum,
Just ran speedtester.bt.com and it confirmed my dsl connection rate was 7,680Kbps.
My IP profile is capped at 750kbps!!
Had a phone line fault fixed a few days ago (one cable was broke, other was fine and running broadband still but at a slower rate). I used to have a super fast connection, now its dog slow.
Does my attenuation look quite high, signifying they might not have fixed my borken cable in the street properly?

Solved!
Go to Solution.the attenuation is decided by line length from the exchange so there is no way someone looking at your stats can comment if attenuation is ok
however your connection speed is very good for your attenuation
can you post btspeedtester results to show profile and download speed

BT Infinity speeds and a low IP profile.
Basically I just recently had Infinity installed. It was all fine when they installed it and for a few hours after they did, I was getting 27mbps on average. But then it all became fishy and my speed dropped considerably down to around 6mbps and it just hasn't increased since. I was getting 6mbps before I upgraded so this is frustrating me, a lot.
Hi,
Something wrong there never seen a speed range that goes down 12000>7131Kbps. When you carried out this speed test did you put the information into the top box's ??? If you did what did it say .
above is the part I'm on about, it gives a bit more information. You may only have to options tho.
1. Need to get Eng. out to reset your IP Profile
2. See if the Mod's can do this for you, Before they couldn't but I think they were going to be able to.
iechyd da
sky twitter account a customer ask why sky go streams are worst then sd and yet bt and eurosports apps stream in hd. Reply from mod, oh thats easy the files for hd are some huge that sky go can't play them and no app can stream hd due to this and so when they say they are they're really sd streams, if there was any way around this we would have done it now. -
I just got a pop up window that my memory is almost full. I just added 2 GB and my system profiler info shows 4GB of memory (see below). however, when I click on the hard drive icon and 'get info' it says 185 GB available. What's the deal? Thanks, Susan

There are two types of memory in your machine (well, more really, but only two we care about at the moment).
They are disk-based storage and random access memory (RAM). Both are measured in GB which may add to the confusion.
The disk-based storage is used for long-term data - applications, documents you create, log files, etc. - anything that you need to retain after the machine is turned off.
The RAM is used for real-time data access. It's much, much faster than disk-based storage but it requires constant power and therefore is erased when you turn the machine off. This memory is used for all the applications you're using right now, the documents you're creating, and any processing that the OS is doing.
For example you may have many gigabytes of photos on your machine, but you're not actually using them all the time. If you open one of the photos, the OS loads the appropriate application into RAM, then the application loads the appropriate photo into RAM and displays it on screen. Any edits you make to the photo also happen in RAM until you hit Save, at which point the data is copied back to the disk.
More RAM is certainly useful - it allows you to do more with your machine since it can load more data into memory at once, but that isn't your problem here.
To use a car analogy, think of the disk as being the trunk of your car and the RAM as being the fuel tank - you've put a bigger fuel tank on your car when what you really need is more trunk space to carry all your gear.
You either need to delete some data you don't need (c.f. empty the trunk), replace the hard drive with a bigger trunk (c.f. take out the back seats), or get a secondary drive you can move the data to (c.f. get a trailer).
If you want to get a better picture of where your data is going, get a copy of Onmi Disk Sweeper. It can analyse your disk and identify unusual disk patterns (like the log files I was expecting). You do, of course, need sufficient disk space to be able to download and install the application. -
Volume level on line-in at 100% but still low sound level when I rec
For many years and hundreds of times I have successfully recorded wave files using a wave editor (Goldwave). I have transferred albums, tapes, and now satellite radio by running stereo cables from my receiver into my line-in on my sound card (using a stereo-to-mono adapter). The volume level on the line-in was always too loud on my old sound card, so I always turned the volume of the line-in down to about 20% and it worked just fine.
Two weeks ago my old sound card fried (don't know the brand - got it from a friend, and I've already thrown it out). I replaced it with a Sound Blaster Li've! 24-Bit. However, using the same configuration (receiver into line-in on card), when I record now the volume level that it records at is way too low. Even when I set the line-in level at 00% the volume that it records at is not even half the level it was with my old sound card set at 20%. Basically, when I record now at 00% on the line-in, the volume level it records at is too low. I have no problem with the line-out level - when I play mp3's or anything else on my hard dri've the volume is crisp, clear, and plenty loud at 40%.
But what is the deal with the low volume recording level? Is there another setting I need to change? Or do I not have the right sound card to do this with? Please let me know if it is a setting issue, or if I just need a different sound card to do this. Thanks.I've had an Audigy2-nx for a week and have struggled with low
recording levels as well.
Have you tried selecting "what you hear" instead of "Line-In"?
This gives me about 20% higher input levels.
I gave up on MedeaSource for variable bitrate recordings and
moved to dbPowerAmp. (direct recording to lame-mp3)
Others here mention good VBR recordings with MedeaSource, but
it won't exceed 90kbs (average) on my system.
I'm finally getting decent recordings from line-in. -
Low speed connection, but still have input history.
Hi there,
We have done some tests in our business to see the performance difference between "low speed connection" being enabled and disabled for a system, both from a network perspective, and from a performance perspective on Citrix servers.
We have determined that the 'input history' feature doesn't cause much performance impact, but a lot of the other 'high-speed' features like images and tool tips do.
We would like to be able to have "low speed connection" for our system, but still enable 'input history'. Is there any way this can be achieved, such as through INI or registry changes?
Thanks,
Michael.I raised a message with SAP, and they responded saying that this is not possible

Good morning I am confronting serious problems with my Macbook pro 2013, that is runing to slow, even when I am writing this email is running with some kind of delay. I upgraded the memories to 8gb but still running slow . Please let me know what I can do to solve the problem. Thanks in advance. Fernando
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to gather information about the state of your computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it on this page. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait for the script to run. It usually takes a couple of minutes. Then paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in your browser, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign ($) or a percent sign (%). If you get the percent sign, enter
exec bash
in the window and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know your password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line "[Process completed]" to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report your results. No harm will be done.
8. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If it happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Canon 1dsmkIII tether speed now better, but still no aperture tether?
so 10.5.6 fixed the speed problem when using the canon app....files now come in fast...great.....but still no direct support in aperture for tethered shooting? or am i missing something?
the problem now is the aperture hot folder script is waaaay too slow and drops 5 out of 8 frames...just skips over them when shooting fast....does anyone have a solution?
aperture is still a pro app? right?shot tethered yesterday...dsmkIII via the canon utility, hot folder app into aperture.....not sure where the problem is but when i hit the buffer, everything freezes and it all has to be force quit and restated....not really a problem with canon utility, but the hot folder app is just so slow and a pain to set up....i think that might be the bottleneck....tried LR and C1 and neither have any problems....
i am very close to switching back to LR right now....one of the reasons to go with aperture was the built in tether support.....i understand that canon changed things, but is it really that hard to make this work? none of the canons work and with the 5DII out and selling like crazy, this should really be addressed....
just downloaded 2.4 raw update and had a silly little glimmer of hope that this might change things, but no luck....isn't aperture in for an update pretty soon anyway...nothing major, just a "clean-up"? -
I redirected iTunes to an external drive and moved my iTunes library and folder, but my hard drive is still low on space. How can I be sure that my music is all on the external HD ONLY, especially with the new iCloud technology? It doesn't look like I created any more space by doing this, AND I totally lost all my iTunes playlists. I'm not sure if because I added old library materials manually if this messed up my playlists, or if the new location is just not reading my moved library. In any case, I followed step by step instructions and found a few holes and thought I'd just "figure it out" but I guess I'm not as smart as I thought since I'm still scratching my head many hours later.
Thanks for any support ;-)
EaglerockerQuick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder.
If this is to a new computer and you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

I downloaded CS6 and am having issues with my print driver. It is not compatible with the HP 2600n and have tried to download drivers given to me by adobe ( (Jupiter 3) but it is not working. after a few days. Its a temporary fix and is still looking for the HP driver when i boot up. It also will not save in any print or postscript format. Does anyone know how to fix?
Currently use a Mac with the latest Mavericks 10.9.4Oh boy! Acting kind of weird seems to be an understatement, aquaequus!
What type of troubleshooting were we able to do with you? I want to make sure that we can get some sort of resolution for this problem.
It is quite possible the battery door may get your phone in working order again. I'm not sure if the store has it in stock, but it is available in our warehouse for $14.99 which can be ordered via customer service.
