Error with the Apple automated answering system?
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but:
I have recently ordered my first Mac, a 2012 MacBook Air with 8 GB of RAM (CTO). To see which process it is in, I have just called Apple and it's automated answering machine told me that I have ordered a 13" MacBook PRO. I know for sure that I have gave it the correct order number and zip code, for I have called twice, but it keeps telling me I have ordered a PRO when I have paid for an AIR. I have checked my order verification email and it says I have ordered an AIR, but the machine says my order consists of a PRO. Anybody else have this issue? And if you did, was the machine wrong or did you recieve the wrong item?
Thanks!
Ok, just to clariy, the system was incorrect in giving me the information. Due to the lack of replies, I am assuming that is a very rare issue that is encountered.

How do I fix a initializing problem with my macbook pro? I only get to the blank screen with the apple logo and the "processing something" sign... it just doesn't start the system....
Please help
MarceloIf there is no loading bar, it's usually a problem with a third party kext file in OS X itself.
You can press the power button down to force a hardware shutdown, then reboot holding the shift key down on a wired or built in keyboard, this will disable them and you go around and update your third party software.
Gray, Blue or White screen at boot, w/spinner/progress bar
Also take this time to backup your users files off the machine if possible.
Most commonly used backup methods
Sometime that won't work and you need to do more

my new ipad 2 turnes to black screen with the apple icon in the middle while using it or if i just left it locked for a while, it just hanged and i have to restart it?! so why this is happening ?! is there is a productio error or something i can do to prevent doing this ?!
Appreciate responding as soon as possible.No, it's definitely not normal. Your User's Guide recommends a series of troubleshooting steps to go through when your iPad is misbehaving: As you're already in effect doing the first of the main steps, a Restart of your iPad, and that's not curing it, move on to the next .. a Reset.
To do this, press and hold both the Home and the Sleep/Wake buttons for about 10-12 seconds, until the display blanks and the red Power Off slider appears. Continue holding the buttons until the slider disappears, replaced by the black screen and white Apple logo.
This shows your iPad is starting to reboot. Release the buttons and allow the process to continue until the Lock screen appears again, then slide the slider to complete the process. -
when i plug my phone into the usb port with the apple charger that came with my phone i get an error msg say charging not supported by this device. But when i use a gigaware (radioshack brand) usb charger, no error msg. Why?
- Try restoring the iPod, first from backup and then try to factory settings/new iPod to rule out a software problem.
- Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, foreign material and broken or cracked plastic.
- Could you have damaged something when you took the iPod apart and replaced the Home button? -
I attempted to upgrade the software on my iPad 2 and I got a message that said "unable to restore Ipad due to error". Now the iPad had a black screen with the Apple symbol and the processing symbol going around and around. When I tried to re connect it to iTunes is says "cannot connect to this iPhone due to error". How do I reset the ipad?
Please Get the iPad User Manual for iOS 5.

Just tried to update my iPad 2 to the current iOS, and I got an error that said the update wouldn't install. The iPad is stuck in a funny mode with the apple and spinning wheel showing. I can't power it down or restart it. What next? Thanks.
Try a hard reset: hold the power and home buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears.

I wanted to restore my ipod touch 4G, but everytime it is restoring with the apple logo, the screen goes partially white and my itunes says "error 9"... what should i do?
plz answer me~Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

Just upgraded my iPad to IOS5 and when the download was completed, a window said that there was an error and it could not restore. Now I have a black screen with the Apple logo and the circle lines. None of the buttons respond. Help, please!!
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. Maybe this will let the iPad reboot and then you may need to restore again but see if this helps to start the iPad first.

Hello, I can't turn my iphone 4s on, it just broke down and now there's just the black screen with the apple logo on it. So I connected it to itunes and tried to restore it, but than always the errors 1603 & 1611 appeared! please help me!!
You may have a faulty USB cable. Try another.
Make sure you are following the instructions in this procedure to the letter. Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release only the Sleep/Wake button.
Continue pressing and holding the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
Use iTunes to restore the iPhone.
If you do not see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Select the device in iTunes and choose "restore from backup".
If you still can't get it to work, you have done all you can and only Apple will be able to help. -
My MacBook Pro will not start. When I started it goes to a gray screen with the Apple logo and has the spinning dial. When I started in safe mode it will not start. In safe mode it as an error message that says MacBook Launch_msg(): Socket is not connected
If running 10.7 or later hold down Command-R at Startup.
This should invoke recovery Mode.
Choose Disk Utility.
Select your Hard drive. Inspect the SMART Status in the lower right of the window for "Verified".
Select the Mac OS X Volume (originally Macintosh HD) click (Repair Disk)
If errors, run again until it comes clean or gets stuck.
Report any error messages. -

-- IF THAT FAILS --
Let the phone battery drain. -
Getting Communication error with the external tax system(VERTEX_MS0018)
Hi All,
I am a new SAP HCM self learner. I am practicing it on company's sandbox system. When I am trying to create a company and saving the address, it is returning Communication error with the external tax system(VERTEX_MS0018). I have already tried to solve is issue by going thru previous related to same issue like
Communication error with the external tax system (VERTEX_MS0018) ...Urgent
but coudn't solve the issue.
Please help. Is this issue coming as I am using a training environment? any alternate approach?Hi Ravi,
To disable the connection to Vertex:
Goto tcode SPRO > Cross Application Components > Transaction Tax Engine >
Technical Settings> Define External Tax System
Here an RFC would be defined. Remove it and try again.
Also in SPRO > Cross Application Components > Tax Determination based on Jurisdiction Codes > External Tax Jurisdiction > Activate External Tax Jurisdiction.
Remove the entry 'V' here.

I upgraded to iOS 7 to my ipad using iTunes. When signing with the Apple ID I get an error reading "There was a problem connecting to the server" anyone who knows what to do next
Sounds more like you have a problem with your apple id. For starters go to that page click manage my apple id and singn in. If you can't sign in reset password.
https://appleid.apple.com
if you can sign in there, try to sign in to itunes on your computer. -
Communication error with the external tax system(vertex_ms0018)
Hi All
I have installed ECC6 IDES S/W on my PC. I have activated SAP Insurance module (FS-CD). When I try to create business partner using FPP1 with US address, It is throwing error as follows:
"communication error with the external tax system(vertex_ms0018)"
I dont want to use any external Tax system like Vertex etc. because I am not calculating any taxes.
I gave correct US address with valid ZIP etc. but no use.
Please help me if any one of you has idea. How to overcome this error. How to deactivate connection to external tax system.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
GiriHi Giri,
I've notice that you took the 'V' from the configuration but you left the RFC destination.
Clearly the RFC destination is not working thus the reason you get the error (in your case, your server can't determine a valid IP address for the host iwdf8334.wdf.sap.corp).
To sort out the problem you got I can think of at least two ways:
1. Get the RFC connection working (get the correct setup for it) using transaction SM59
2. Or if you don't really need the external tax calculations, remove the RFC configuration from TAXUJ under Assign RFC Destination to Country on the Cross-Application SPRO entry.
3. You can always add TAXUS to transaction OBBG if you require it (as it comes out of the box).
This should fix the problem you are having but I'm assuming you don't need the external tax calculations.
If you do, just fix the connection using SM59 (you may want to ask for help from your Basis team if you don't know how to do it).
Cheers

Migration of ST03N data when upgrading to SAP BASIS 700
Hi, if you're planning an upgrade to SAP ECC 6.0 (SAP_BASIS 700) you might be interested in keeping the ST03N data from your previous release. By default the "old" data will be deleted, because the workload collector has been re-designed and implemen
