Finding the correct settings for your smartphone?

I recently spent many hours experimenting with settings.  I then found that some websites offer you a service (I had to pay £1).  Online I had to give details of my phone, its provider and wether it was contract or PAYG.  They then send the settings to you in a text to your phone and a separate message with a pin.  You put the pin in on your phone and the settings are transferred from the text to the settings area of your phone.  My problems were solved!
I used "configuremyphone.com"  No doubt there are other providers too.

It's jusy as easy and cheaper (free) to use your operator's website to do the same thing...

    Hello,
    this morning I received the following error message when the iPhone connected to iTunes: i
    tunes could not check for an update to the carrier settings for your iphone. an unknown error occurred (1635) 
    any ideas? thx

    I get the same error (although in Dutch ;-)).
    It also says something like (I'm translating): "Make sure your network settings are correct and your networkconnection is active or try again later." Is there a way to find out these "correct networksettings"?
    I now get it for a week, eacht time I connect my iPhone to itunes...

  • What are the correct settings for the Canon 5D mark II in FCP 7 ?

    I am shooting full HD at 23s97 fps.. tried making a preset for the Canon but when I import fils FCP always wants to change to appropriate settings for this file type but doesn't tell me what that is...
    (latest firmware installed)
    Please, can someone provide all the correct settings for me?
    And also, why doesn't the camera show up on the desktop/in the menus when attached to the mac? I have ro use EOS utility every time I want to get anything off of the camera... and FCP doesn't see it either. That's just not right - FCP MUST recognise my camera!! : (
    Please help - I don't want to start editing until I have the right settings for this footage.
    Thanks
    Jim

    Welcome to the Boards
    Not sure what you mean with the following, looks like a word dropped?
    I have ro use EOS utility every time I want to get anything off of the camera...
    Anyway, some more specs on your system could help point where the issue is. With the new Plug-In by Canon you can Log & Transfer from the Flash Card (not sure how you connected the camera.) Alternatively you could just drag the files in (but make sure to keep all files such as THM in case you use Log and Transfer later.)
    Generally it is best to transcode to Pro Res to be able to work with the files in Final Cut. (Log & Transfer should do that, or using Compressor/Mpeg Streamclip.)
    It (Final Cut) is probably changing the timeline to match the codec, or depending on your last preset used, just switching things around. In other words if you were editing in DV and had a set up for that, new sequences would default to that and if you try to ad anything else you will get the message.
    Take a look at the search over there -> to look for the Canon 5D threads for some more info.
    What I would do is just pull one of the clips in to start and look at what the sequence settings are aftr Final Cut changes them for you - they should be fine generally, though you will want to change Codecs to Pro Res.
    I like just batch conversion of all my clips from the 5D Markk II and then work from there. (I do not hook up the camera to the computer, just use a card reader.)

  • Which are the correct settings for gmail in MacBookPro

    I want to use mac mail to access my gmail. Can I  ? instead of going directly to web to access my gmail.? Which are the correct settings for the incoming and outgoing servers ?

    Hi,
    Yes. You can absolutely access your Gmail account from within either Mail or Microsoft Outlook for Mac. Make sure, that you have enabled POP/IMAP in your Gmail settings, then follow the instructions here: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=180188 if you wish to access your account via POP3 instead of IMAP, change the incoming mail server to pop.gmail.com
    Regards,

  • HT1277 i have all the correct settings for my e mail but i can't send for some reason it keeps taking my outgoing server offline

    i have all the correct settings for my e mail but i can't send for some reason it keeps taking my outgoing server offline can anyone help

    If you can receive mail and your connection to your ISP is otherwise working, but cannot send mail, then your SMTP settings are incorrect; the SMTP server port is wrong, your SSL setting is wrong, or the username or password credentials don't match what the ISP has, or your attempted accesses are being blocked or your ISP SMTP server is offline.
    And in general, don't use port 25 for your outbound mail, unless your ISP specifically requires that; these days, that port is best left to communications between mail servers and (usually) not used by any mail clients.

  • When I tried to sync my 4G iphone factory unlocked to iTunes I got this message "An update to the carrier settings for your iPhone is available. Would you like to download it now?"  Should I hit "Download and Update"? or "Learn More" ?

    When I tried to sync my 4G iphone factory unlocked to iTunes I got this message "An update to the carrier settings for your iPhone is available. Would you like to download it now?"  Should I hit "Download and Update"? or "Learn More" ?

    I have a factory unlocked iPhone 3GS (eg: purchased from Apple).  I received the same message at some point and eventually (after reading a bit more) accepted "Download and Update".  No problem.  No apparent bad effects. It just seems to update things specific to the carrier (Bell Mobility in my case).

    The search bar can be very valuable...........
    In using it, I found out other's have had this issue and it likely means you have a 3G iPad?  If you do, go into settings and turn off cellular data, then try to update again and you should be OK........

    helo, my iiphone is unlock and i upgrade to 5.1 version when the upgrade finish i get this question-An update to the carrier settings for your iPhone is available. Would you like to download it now? is there a resone not to upgrade, will he become lock?

    If your phone is factory unlocked, or officially unlocked by your carrier, updating will NOT re-lock the phone.  If it was unlocke by unauthorized methods, any update or restore will re-lock it.

  • ITunes keeps popping up a dialog box that says "An update to the carrier settings for your iPhone is available. Would you like to download it?" What is this?

    iTunes keeps popping up a dialog box that says "An update to the carrier settings for your iPhone is available. Would you like to download it?" What is this? When I click on the "Learn More" button in the dialog box it takes me to a generic iTunes support page that has no relevance to carrier settings.

    I got this three times within the last 4 hours and have been getting it almost every day since I use my new iPhone 6 - over a week now. This happens almost every time I connect the phone to my MacBook Pro, although every time I confirm and it indicates successful update.
    It is highly unlikely that my carrier updates settings on daily basis or three times a day. It is almost surely a bug in the Apple system and anything but a timely and effective solution is unacceptable.
    For debugging information, I recovered a backup from my former iPhone 5 onto the new one, using the same carrier and SIM.

  • Correct settings for your phone

    During the last week I have spent many hours trying various settings.  I then found a site where you pay £1 and they send the settings to you.  It worked very well.  I just had to fill in online the details of my phone, its service provider and if it was on a contract or PAYG.  No doubt there are several companies who do this.  I used "configuremyphone.com"  They send the settings on a text to your phone and give you a pin number to use which then moves the settings in the text to the correct locations in your phone.

    It probably reset the access point for the browser.
    First make sure that the access points are ordered correctly in your internet destinations and also check that "Internet" is the default destination.
    Then, from within the browser, check the settings and make sure that it uses "default" as its access point. It will then attempt to connect via the WLAN and, if it's not available, go for the packet data service.

  • Can someone please help me find the correct driver for my audio ca

    Hello, it's famke again...Still trying to find drivers.. My sound card is apparently also missing drivers... I've tried many drivers from different sites matching the information i've taken off the card...but for some reason i always get a big red slash through my audigy sound control panel after trying to install the driver and reboot my system... I'm convinced i haven't been able to find the correct driver... The information off the card is...Soundblaster Audigy 2ZS M:SB0350... If anyone can help out i would greatly appreciate this...Famke.

    I'm new to this, but I also had trouble for a while in finding and installing the right drivers. Eventually I got it to work with the link below. Follow the steps and select everything it suggests (I did and it worked for me). You might want to try it and see if it works for you too. Good Luck. http://www.creative.com/language.asp...wnloads/su.asp
