GR value to be apportioned over n years

Hi All,
We have a peculiar scenario in our client business. Below is the scenario
Our client buys packaging material from vendors say (Qty of 300 ) and receives them in the system through GR. After receving them these boxes are issued to the farmers. So we perfrom GI with a cost center and issue them. Farmers return those boxes filled with tobacco to company after sometime so the company will have to take the boxes as non valuated material. For this we have created a custom material type and custom movement type and receive the inventory.
Again these boxes are reissued to the farmers but this time they will not have any value to them. This process continues for three years. after that the boxes are no longer for use and hey scrap them.
Now the business says when they receive 300 and issue all of them first time entire cost is added to that particular year which they dont want to do. As it might reduce their profit margin 
Question :
They wanted the cost of the packaging material to be apportinoned over a period of 3 years. As the life of the material is 3 years totally
How do we run this scenario in the system and are there any FI settings to be done
All your inputs are pretty much valuable
Thanks 
Pavan

I had this kind of scenario with project management where the the bores used were being returned by the contractors back and the cost had to be apportioned to the WBS of the porject that could have been completed an year ago.  This was handled completely by financial provisions only for an year backward.
As far as IM configuration this can be handled to the extent of segregating the cost of the material to a different GL account.  As we are aware the phycical receipt of the material and the value can be only in the current open period.  Option of handling this from the MM perspective is very minimal. 
This is a financial decision on how this cost is handled after scrapping, if they can be salvaged by a scrap sale then this goes to the current year.  In Finance, the cost needs to be provisioned and I am not sure if the books are kept open for three years and this again depends on the statuatory regulation and audit.
best regards

  • I am a customer Verizon customer of over ten years...I am notgettingany assistance from the customer service department. Since September I am being charged for a Samsung phone that I returned based on the process that verizon has set.return the defective

    turn my phone to send Verizon wireless and those instead of the stuff found. I'm not in charge $600 for the for the phone. I'll talk to multiple customer service reps and nothing has really been done about anything other then we'll keep looking or so for stretching it out. since September I've been dealing with thison a month-to-month basis they cut my services they reinstate me and tell me that they're going to knock off the reconnection charge as I have four lines. Unfortunately my main reason for this phone is my work emails which I need to do because I do work and to contact my mother who is 85 years old and I'm the sole caregiver. I don't know what else to do. I have spoken to a supervisor  by the name of William or Will oats in that he said he was going to look into it and was going to help me out. Never heard from him again- just original email to quiet me down. I've been sending him emails just about every day trying to make sure that I get my message across. Seems like Verizon Wireless really doesn't care about the long-term customers. Looking forward to hearing from someone that can help me with my plight.process is faulty for returns. You don't accept them in the stores because as one customer service rep stated you can't get your own employees to send the devices back. Now the responsibilities is on the customer the paying customer the one that keeps you alive. And it's not fair that I there's no way I can prove that I put it in the mailbox. So what are my next stepswhat is it that I need to do to clear up this charge of $600. It's about economy as $600 to me at this very point it's a lot of money. I've been your customer for 10 years I've got four lines I've given will my mothers telephone number home number..number but now she's got to sit by the phone to make sure that she picks up all the calls. And nobody can hear what I have to sayand nobody has been able throughout all these months and check your notes check your notes to see how many times I've called how many time you cut my services how many times you reinstated me and how many times that I spent an hour and a half to two hours on the phone going through this process. I think the stress level is to know thqt I did exactly what you asked...I am now paying the price for your faulty process I'm all I'm asking is review my account tell me what I did wrong I follow your procedure so I don't understand....to top it off...my wife hasa per diem job...and she too is affected by loosing out on work leads...
    as you can see, the cel is no longer a commodity. It's a way of life.
    PLease se call me at -----just remembered....I don't have a service line.

    I have a similar problem with my fathers service, it wasns't $600 but what is rightfully your money, you deserve it back, I wrote this complaint on the Consumer Affairs website:
    In August 2014, my son went to Target to get a new cell phone and was told his Unlimited Data would still be on his plan (he shared a line on his grandfathers account). Well it turned out that Target messed it up and my son immediately called Verizon to get it taken care of but they were not able to do anything about the lost unlimited data but the customer service rep did try to find the best offer for him. In the mean time Verizon was suppose to send him a new cell phone, they never sent it and he was without a phone so he took his business to another cell provider. Verizon DID charge him for the new service that they had spoke about. So when the new bill (Sept) came, the service he never used was on the bill and when we called to inquire about it we spoke to a Judy and told us we would be receiving a credit of the amount that was paid. Well, we got the next months bill (Oct) and still no credit, so called them again and spoke to a Nadine ** . She looked into the account and saw the amount that was paid and said she would submit it again for a credit and she would get back to me in 2 days, no call back.
    The next bill (Nov) came and no credit again, call again but didn't get the girls name and she put me on hold to look over the previous conversations. She said she sees in the records about the credit and said it takes a while to get it thru the supervisor authorization and she would put it in as a "rush priority". On Dec. 5th my dad's cell was turned off, so I call yet again to Verizon, and explain the whole story to them again. This girl explained to me that the request was not put in correctly and that she would submit it right this time, they even turned the cell back on for him.
    So here we are today, Dec. 30, 2014, I get the bill...NO CREDIT, call up and get a gentleman in billing, explain this whole thing again and he transferred me over to customer service where I spoke to a Jordan and yet again told him the story. By this time I was fuming, 3 almost 4 months of calling for this credit and he looks into the account and tells me there is nothing that states there is a credit so all the other customer service reps see it but now it is gone. He said he can only issue me a $25 credit to the bill, not even close to what the bill was that I paid. At this point I wanted to speak to a Supervisor and even that was a problem.
    He did call me back after my phone died. He put me on hold again to speak to a supervisor himself and said that he can only offer me $100 credit for all my troubles for the past few months. I took the $100 credit because Jordan said if I spoke to the supervisor, the $100 credit might not be an offer anymore so it was either take it or leave it. Now where I stand, they get away with NOT giving the credit due to customers. I am done with Verizon.
    today being March 12, 2015, he FINALLY got the said $100 credit...but because of their delay, he service was shut off and I refuse to pay the reconnection fee due to their neglect of a customer of over ten years. My father's service will NO longer be with a place that has NO VALUE in customer service....Verizon robs their customers anyway they can.

  • Mysterious values appearing in Mouse-Overs

    I am new to Xcelsius (I still have troubles spelling it) and I would greatly appreciate a bit of guidance.
    I created a line chart, with the X-axis representing every month and year from January 2000 to the present. When graphed, the month/year category labels are horribly blurred, because there are so many of them.  As a workaround, I created  another set of category labels to represent January and June of each year. That works fine.  However, when users mouse-over the graphed line, a mysterious value sometimes appears where the month-year should appear.  These mysterious values appear only for those months that do not have X-axis labels.  For instance, since I have a category label for January 2002, January 2002 and itu2019s data value appear in the mouse-over fly-out. Since February 2002 does not have a month/year value, a mysterious number appears, with the February 2002 data value.  I think I know what the mysterious value is, but it is really unwanted, I didnu2019t put it there, and I canu2019t get rid of it.  How do I get rid of the mysterious numbers, and keep the data values, or --  better yet  -- trick the mouse-over to show the original X-axis containing all the month/years? 
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi BookWorm
    The trick to this is to have a second line chart which is used only to display the category values.  The main chart still contains your full data but has the category labels hidden.  Getting them lined up with a lot of data like you have can be a faff but it does work well.
    Contact me via my profile and I'll send you an example.

  • I have files that have been on my computer for over a year and all of a sudden they wont open and an error message comes up saying they were improperly downloaded or came in an email attach which is not the case

    I have files that have been on my computer for over a year and I have used them several times and all of a sudden they wont open.  I received an error message saying they are improperly downloaded or came as an email attachement which is not the case.  Please advise

    They seem to be word files - they will open if I choose "open with" microsoft word, but if I double click they don't open they are appearing as PDF on my screen.  I even opened one and then tried to "save as" making sure I chose .doc and they still appear as PDF
    I just created a new document response.doc in word and when I saved to my desktop it appears as a PDF file and I absolutely did not create a PDF or save as PDF it was a simple word
    doc.
    The message says "Adobe reader could not open response.doc because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example attached in an email and not properly decoded)
    The reader version is I believe the most current, I always update when prompted.  OS is Windows 8

  • My wife and I have made many purchases over several years on seperate accounts, how could we join them into one account, without losing everything?

    My wife and I have made many purchases over several years on seperate accounts, how could we join them into one account, without losing everything? We both use Iphone 5's and share an Imac at home.

    Purchases using one Apple ID cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID. Purchases are forever tied to that Apple ID used. You have to decide which Apple you want to use for purchases and stick to that Apple ID so that you can share: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID : > use the same Apple ID here to share purchases.

  • At first I was using my father's icloud account in my iPad and now I use mine. I still have the games that I have been playing for over a year like that itself but when I clicked the upgrade button they r asking for my father's iCloud pass.how 2 upda

    i am using an iPad mini and I had been using my father's iCloud account to purchase apps in app store and now I changed the iCloud account to mine. But the apps still remain purchased in my father's account and not in mine. Now I have to update my apps to use them(I have been using it for over a year) when I click update button they r asking for the passcode of my father's account. So I can't update it. And I also need to update it. What can I do! How can I purchase the same game with the same progress in my iCloud account.

    Yes, if you repurchase it you may lose your progress. The exception would be a game that stored all your progress on a server under your ID
    If you want to retain your progress you have two choices:
    1. Don't apply the update.
    2. Use your fathers account password to update the game.

  • Hello, I lost my iphone over a year ago and I haven't been able to get any of the music that I purchased. Is there a way to retrive my music library

    Im wondering how I can get the music that I had on my iphone 4. I lost the phone over a year ago, but I spent hundreds of dollars on music albums. since then I have never been able to find out if I can get the albums that I purchased  and save them in my computer. I don't have a iphone or other cell phone at the moment. the phone that I lost was not backed up. if anyone know how to do that, I would be thrilled.

    If you got them from the iTunes Store, click here for information.
    If you got them from somewhere else, reload them from that source.

  • TS2755 I have 3 phones on one Icloud account. It has been this way for over a year with no issues. After and update on of the lines started getting text messages from all 3 phones. We fixed the send and receive and it was fixed. It is doing it again.

    I have 3 phones on one Icloud account. They have been this way for over a year. After an update last week one of the phones started getting messages for all of the other lines. We fixed this under the send and receive under settings. It was fine for a few days. Suddenly it started happening again. Yesterday after two hours on the phone I changed my apple id and it is still happening. Before that Verizon had told me to turn off my imessage when that happened I could not get any texts at all from other Iphone users.

    Make 3 different iCloud accounts and use ONLY for iMessage.   That will permanently fix your issue.

  • Failure to fix my cable for over a year and a half! HELP!

    Failure to fix my cable for over a year and a half! HELP!
    I regretfully have to inform you that I might have to discontinue using Comcast, for the following reasons if I cannot et you to resolve these issues. It should be noted that this is something that I do not want to have to do. However, basically I have no choice.
    1. Repeated and Constant Internet Issues and Poor TV Quality for over a year.
    2. A substandard quality of service, just even compared to my next door neighbors who has Comcast. The service has issues daily. Not a week has gone bye without an issue either small or large.
    3. Constant and repeated interrupt of service and an overall low quality of product. Time Outs, High Ping rates into the 100s and 200s, Cable Light Off, Poor Quality of TV picture, fuzzy, Digital Blocking even on non-digital channels with or without box, Occasional CB Radio chatter over interment connection <-(the odd one).
    4. The constant run around from the employee’s at Comcast and Service Department who either are unable to fix my problem, or unwilling to fix my problem, or have no one qualified to fix the problem. The amount of service calls and tech support personal I have had come to my house and had to call is so numerous I cannot even recall the amount.
    5. Paying full price for a substandard quality and product while others around me do not have too. Including my next door neighbor which does not seem to have an issue.
    The Story-
    I purchased this house over a year and a half ago. Note; I did think it was odd that the pervious owner of this house had Comcast TV, but a DSL internet connection (I know now why he had to do that). In a brief conversation with him recently when he was visiting our next door neighbors he told me of how he had the same issues and had to switch to DSL.
    I am, and always have been an avid Cable user and in particular for the Internet as the Broadband just makes it so much more enjoyable. I used Time Warner Cable for over 7-years prior to “having to” use Comcast with great service and good connection and a highly enjoyable time over the internet playing games and surfing the web. I have to use the words :“having too”, as you are the only Broad Band Internet connection in my area currently (I moved to the Burbs, not the Boonies) so I still don’t understand why my choices are limited. Must be nice to have a Monopoly though. : ), and I am starting to think this maybe part of my problems and why nothing is being done.
    In any case, my internet use is for entertainment only. Surfing the Web, playing video games, Online Classes, and whatnot. Nothing life treating, or a must have service and basically, fun for the family, not for frustration. I like to use Cable as I never have to worry about the line cutting out or losing connection. This used to be the case, but with Comcast I do have to worry about this, and it happens often. Simply put: it is NOT always ON as advertised, at least for me.
    The Issues-
    From day one, I have had nothing but repeated and constant issues with my internet service. I don’t even think I had Comcast a week before I had to make my fist service call. See I was used to another Cable service and silly me expected my cable to work. From there it was all downhill. I have had so many service calls its actually outlandish and would be funny if it was someone else. Its like a TV sitcom actually.
    Each and every service call goes the same way. Tech comes out, stands around, recognizes the problem and leaves. No fixes mind you, and the reasons are below.
    Recent History-
    With the internet on the fritz again and only seeming to get worse I decided to call and have someone come out and check it. A preemptive strike on my part in other words, before it totally blew out like it does and taking days for it to come back on. I have been dealing with this for over a year getting kind of frustrated with the whole process.
    I talk to the service department and they also see the issue (sporadic interrupt of service and poor quality). With so many problems and the list ever growing most likely on my report the service guy said he would send a Line Tech out to check my problem on Monday (the ninth).
    I think to myself finally some progress and it only took a year, a real Line Tech my issue is sure to be solved.
    Unfortunately, the apparent Line Tech does and did the same as every other tech sent to the house. Set around for 20 or so minutes futzing around with the computer. Notes the issue of single loss and poor TV quality makes some notes and says sign here. *take note of paragraph below about Line Tech.
    Around Thursday, I call up the service department basically asking if and when my service problems will be fixed. With little shock and surprise I was told that nothing is scheduled the last service call the Line Tech was not really a Line Tech and I should have been called back and or at least informed of that a Line Tech was not scheduled to be sent. This is normal by the way.
    The Phone Tech checked my service and found that an issue did exist and proceeded to tell my that he would advise his supervisor of the issue. He also stated that if someone had not called me by 6:00PM this coming Saturday, that I could call and he would expedite matters.
    Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock
    Saturday at 6:20PM I call up the service department, punch in my phone number and low and behold I’m sent immediately to the Clams Department instead of the Service Department LOL.
    After explaining the issue to the Clams Department (my thinking is at this point is; why pay for it if its not working and they wont fix it) I am transferred to the Service Department after a brief expiation of the issue. I guess I am a little late with my bill, but can you blame me?
    The Run Around-
    Talking to a new service persona again which is the same with ever tech sent to the house (Never the same one twice). Apparently nothing is on my report about this call I made earlier, or he does not note it.
    The new service tech while helpful and curious taking the brunt of my frustrations at this point goes through the same procedures that I have been through so many times now I know them by hart. I acknowledge the fact ahead of time to myself that my tone although frustrated is nothing personal, and the service tech should not take it personally. Its just that at this point I’m beyond frustrated. I try to be as understanding and curious as I can while he tries to help me.
    I explain the repeated problems and what is going on. In this instants the service tech mentions something about some service package (come kind of other signal maybe being sent to the modem).
    At the time my internet is somewhat working with only a few time outs and just above normal pings so I cant really blame him for not seeing an issue. I’m mainly calling just to find out why I didn’t receive a phone call, or get another appointment to have this checked into.
    My service was cutting out right before I called, which is why I called. The service tech just happened to check my service while it was working for 20 or so minutes. : P
    Although, I am sure the Tech knew what he was doing and seemed very knowledgeable and probably thought he had resolved an issue that has been plaguing me for over a year now I knew nothing had changed. (this has happened before by the way same exact procedure in fact, and must be part of the training).
    I’m trying to hold my volume down and not get too upset. Its not the techs fault and probably does not know I have gone through this procedure before. I want to try to explain this but he is busy trying to work his magic. I remain calm, but I even made the statement that I would probably be calling him back in 15-minutes. I try to end the conversation and phone call as politely as I can. Its not his fault, his just trying to do a job.
    Anthony
    Case Number: 053300005
    Well not even five minutes later you will never guess what………… Pings start dropping and the internet is cutting out on me.
    The Problem-
    The problem has been defined as a Line Issue, and an On and Off interrupt of service. At this point even the TV is being affected. From the first time I called (like over a year ago) the issue is defined to me as an On OFF issue.
    The Problem trying to get this fix-
    You apparently have no Line Techs.
    The Pole near my house is apparently a Forbidden Area that no one must go near. LOL
    You cannot get these people to go near it apparently. They only classify the problem and go away never to be seen nor heard from again.
    Now honestly I can understand with employee issues seeing this happening from time to time, but not for over a year and with service calls up in the tens and twenties…..
    Worst of All-
    I think the worst part of all of this is I have become so used to the poor and substandard quality of service. So used to it that I only call or complain when its totally out or is visually not working correctly and can be tested. I don’t call and complain because its not working as Advertised, because in fact it really never did or does.
    I also, don’t call a lot of the times because of dealing with the service department. If its working at that moment they cannot define the problems. Not really anyone’s fault as it looks like its working even if the pings are in the 200 range or currently no time outs are accruing. I mean at least its working, and they say Speed is not Guaranteed anyway.
    The Forgotten and Unanswered Questions-
    I don’t know about the rest of you but sometimes while talking to people I forget to ask questions or the question does not come to mind until the conversation is over with. In any case, the Phone Service Tech said that what he did should have been done along time ago.
    However, if my cable was somehow magically fixed by what he did I still have these questions;
    1.What happened to my Service Call and why did no one call my by 6:00PM today?
    -I waited around for the call actually, and I really would like to get this issue resolved.
    2. Why is my TV picture still bad?
    3. Although my internet seemed to be working today and only cut out once for a brief period of time why did the supposed fix of the Phone Tech double and even triple my pings, and still occasionally cuts out?
    This is usually when I can tell its going to start acting up as the interrupts become more frequent and growing in intensity and length. I always have them anyway I am used to it.
    However, on the other hand, I am already seeing time outs and interrupts and should I be paying full price for a lower quality of service compared just to my next door neighbor ?
    This is a very hard question for me to ask myself. I like using Cable rather than a Dialup Service, but there is also the whole principle to the matter as well.
    *Should I pay full price for a service that is substandard to everyone else’s?
    *Should I pay full price for the same connecting I used to get a discount for, because of the poor quality?
    *Should I call and complain everyday and turn this into a daily ritual? I cant keep taking time off from work to wait for someone who does nothing except stand around and futz with the computer for 20mintes and recognize the issue.
    *Should I have to complain so much and go through the process which is like pulling teeth to get you guys to do something about it?
    Maybe this is all my fault, and I am doing something wrong. What do I have to do to get this fixed? I don’t want to have to get DSL, so someone please help me. What am I doing wrong. I cannot keep taking time off from work to have someone come out only to recognize I have an issue and never fix it.
    To Whomever at Comcast:
    Is it so wrong of me to want, after a year of having repeated service calls with no resolution to the issue to ask, and request, that the cable service provided to me is the same as everyone else’s?
    If you handed noticed-
    Well if you haven’t noticed by now I am really tying to get this situation fixed and resolved. Mostly because, it is to the point where I am going to have to stop using Comcast and get DSL, or AOL or something because its more reliable. Which I really don’t want to do in the first place cable is supposed to be reliable and always on and faster.
    A little over a year not and I am running out of options though.
    Seriously Cant anyone help?

    Wed/Jan/18
    An eventful day-
    Just a few minutes ago, got a phone call from the Comcast Cable GUY (2:20pm). He then Says he’s been working on trying to find the problem from 1 O’clock. Apparently, and maybe the case, (it was a brief conversation and he will get back to me later) but maybe some part has gone bad somewhere and he said he was waiting on a phone call from someone else.
    In any case, he said that they are trying to clear up the problem and that its been running better sense the Jan/14.….? Not here it hasn’t. LOL We also had a brief discussion about how due to my repeated use of the internet that maybe I notices this more than other people do. My next door neighbor does not seem to have any issues last time I talk to them. But the guy said someone who lives on Broadway (few streets over) has been having issues too so maybe its this part.
    I said; So I should see some improvement today… silence…and a brief pause….. After I find out what the problem is Ill come over and discuss it with you so you know exactly what is going on.
    I do have a feeling I am going to be told this is going to take weeks to fix or at least awhile. Apparently a Part is needed maybe. Ill have to wait until the guy shows and gives me a full explanation though.
    I called my wife and told her of the event and she is pretty emphatic about returning the TV cable box as the TV picture is better without it and she only really looks at the local or 3-like 70 anyway. She was like “Bad Part?” well its been bad for over a year then! We should get a refund for the whole year then… Sorry Comcast she is on a Refund Kick… I just want it to work.
    Part/4-
    The Tech Supervisor Mark, showed up at my door and tried to explain the issues. I felt kind of bad cause I probably know he got Chewed on along with some other people probably. At least they sent someone older and who looked like he had more experience and knew what he was talking about and could actually find the issue.
    I tried to be as apologetic as I could, and tried to explain that its just because this has been such a persistent issue over the past year and a half, and I have had way too many service calls for this not to be fix by now. I even went so far as to explain; it’s a new year and we are trying to get this problem finally fixed. I was also quick to mention how nice it was outside and that at least it was a good day to run around outside. I would have felt really bad if it was raining or snowing out, but it was a nice day probably upper 60s and sunny.
    We briefly discussed the issues and he said he and some others (I guess) had been working t the Head End fixing some issues… Which actually might have fixed my TV picture, seems better right now currently though. Currently NO digital Blocking on any channels currently, but as I said, it’s a sporadic issue popping up one day and going away the next or the problem lasting weeks and months then nothing for a few days and weeks.
    Mark, tried to explain that maybe the problem that I might been having (apparently along with a few others) was that a Temporary Line was connected on the MAIN. Basically 1” Main Line Cable run it to cable like that’s in your house (cant remember but off hand I think its 5, 10 or 15 gauge cable) and back to 1” Main Line Cable. It was all a little technical, I just nodded and said yes, and at least you might have found the issue right?
    He didn’t know how long that had been like that, and I said; probably for over three years as the previous owner had issues too, or at least sense I had bought this house about a year and a half.
    I went so far as to showed him some print screens of some of the issues I have been having, and I know he noticed all the yellow recites in my computer room. : P Unfortunately, I deleted all my old Print Screen saves when the guy last Monday (ninth) showed up and said he would fix the line, or at least track it down. I only had one from the previous night to show him or something.
    In any case, while discussing this Mark, said the guy that came out the other Monday never filled out a work order or something like that. I basically tried to explain that is the kind of thing I have been dealing with for little over a year. Tech after Tech after Tech; as I looked at all the yellow recites on top of my computer desk.
    Mark also, basically said, I should have pretty fast cable considering I only have two nodes and then basically it runs back to Comcast, or something like that. However, that Temporary Line is probably causing the issues. No definite date on a fix, but maybe 24-hours or a few days, but the matter had been expedited or something like that. *Cross fingers*
    That’s the real issue with this cable, its sporadic, and comes and goes. I’m pretty sure they are going to try to replace that line, but you know what….. I have heard that before actually. I have actually heard that for over a year now. Even the expedited part. : P
    Mark tried to thank me for pointing out this issue, and made some comment about how its actually helping them….but………. I can kind of tell he had been getting yelled at or something by someone. It was not obvious, but I could tell.
    I felt kind of bad about that, but… That happens when you work for someone, and the people who work for you (below you) don’t do what they are supposed too.
    I kind of tried to briefly explain to Mark about the issue again and that usually by the time a Supervisor gets out the issue has cleared up for a time….. Odd how that works by the way. But basically I got the old…well it looks like its working ok now and you should have seen some improvements over the last few days… thingy..
    We started talking about that Temporary Line being connected again and I walked Mark to the door and we said our goodbyes and I apologized again for being such a pain in the about this whole matter.
    Part/5-
    I called the wife and told here about everything. The first thing she asked is; is it fixed? She is still not happy especially when I tired to explain what the issue was and probably was and that at least maybe they found it.
    I have no idea of what kind of onward action maybe on my part in the end if things don’t get better. Its like trying to argue with the old Bell Telephone Company when that was the only phone company in the US and no other phone companies existed.
    I hope to one day, be a satisfied Comcast Customer, but to date I have yet to feel that way, at least with the Internet in any case and that’s only because I really don’t watch TV.
    I am also, hoping when, and if, some LINE is replaced somewhere that I see some drastic improvement along with apparently a lot of other people in my community and a lot less issues also. I still don’t believe that I should be just setting for; Ok well at least its ON now, or the light has finally stopped flashing.
    All a SNAFU?
    That’s highly questionable at this point, and I have to be honest with you. This is going on a year and a half of dealing with this. This SNAFU, could be the case, but it seems more like policy, or a standing Comcast Company Directive actually if you want my honest opinion. I don’t know what the Maintenance Budget is for my area, but you might want to consider doubling it, or tripling it.
    I really don’t care actually when this is fixed, as long as the issue is fixed. I cannot make a final judgment until it is finally fixed and go on and try to take further action onward from that point.
    Thus far I have only been given an explanation. I don’t know if anyone at Comcast realize exactly how many times I have had an explanation given too me though (either on the phone with a service tech or from an actual person “tech” at my house). The list is extensive of the actual explanations I have had over the past year and a half, but my favorite one is; squirrels.
    Part/6-
    We are still waiting on phone calls from people who said they would call us back today and check what’s going on. Both of us, (me and the wife) are slowly losing momentum again as this whole issue gets dragged out for weeks and weeks at a time.
    She is tired and I’m tired too, and Comcast is warring us down again it looks like. My wife was like; “do I have to call them, I really didn’t have a good day anyway and I’m tired. They were supposed to call us anyway, lets wait.”
    I tried to make a phone call (half heartedly, I myself as I’m tired too) as Carla (at my local Comcast office) wanted to know how the service call went, but after repeated attempts and being shuffled off to Billing, and then being put on hold : P ……and its actually getting close to dinner time. Maybe after dinner if I don’t just fall asleep first.
    So, in the end its still hang on for a few more days, and or, wait to have the problem fixed. Your guess is as good as mine, people. More Smoke and Mirrors or an actual Fix. Your guess is as good as mine.
    As for me, I’m going to bed, I’m worn out. Maybe a new line to replace that temporary one, maybe just saying I might get a new line to replace that temporary one.
    The Saga continues. Maybe it will end someday.

  • Account issues for over a year.

    This occurence started over a year ago, March of 2013.
    Went looking at laptops for my niece's birthday and we were all playing with the tablet set-ups and got hooked. I was pretty well-off then so I went on a splurge and spent around 2,000 on new tablets for myself and some family members, warranties and GS plans to boot. No rewards card at the time, they informed me of the points system and how I'd receive them for that purchase if I set one up so of course I did. 
    Few months later wanting to buy something, checking on my points (assuming I had quite a bit considering how much I spent then and since then) and there was NO purchases on my account history, no points. Find out my account had been mixed with someone else's name and spent hours at best buy customer service one day correcting the situation. Everything was fine but I still hadn't spent my points yet. Someone mentioned something about points giving out email certificates, but I have not received a single one of those from Best Buy ever. 
    Come this past week, purchase an xbox one bundle with GCU. Planned today to buy a video game and take advantage of the points and the bonus from GCU but, wow. I have no points, no GCU on my account, and my account again is showing that I have never purchased anything except a can of aerosol nearly a year ago. They "fixed" the situation by applying a brand new GCU onto my account, nope, still no GCU on my account and still out of those thousands of points.Looking at my receipts I notice they all say the party's name who's account mine was originally mixed with, which they were supposed to have corrected two times now?
    This has become aggravating, and I am unsure of what I'm supposed to do in this situation now. What am I going to do to go about points I never received, the fact they can't seem to process my account correctly?

    Hello GotThesePills,
    I'm glad you have found our forum.  Thank you for visiting, and thank you too for your message.  I'll be happy to work with you to get your account straightened out.
    I am sorry to hear of the trouble you've had with your My Best Buy account.  It can certainly be frustrating to not see any certificates from your earned points.  I would likewise be upset to learn that the Gamers Club Unlocked membership I purchased was not properly associated with my account.
    I'll need a bit of information so that I can see what is going on with your account, so I will be sending you a private message to continue that conversation.  Please watch for that message shortly.  To check your messages, while logged into the forum click on the envelope in the upper right corner of the page.  
    Thank you for being a My Best Buy member.

  • HT1364 All the cd's I have bought over the years, have all been uploaded into iTunes on a Windows PC. I have just bought an iMac and want to transfer my library across. What is the best way?

    All the cd's I have bought over the years, have all been uploaded into iTunes on my Windows PC. I have tried just copying my iTunes folder across to my new iMac, but it doesn't recognise all of the music (but it does recognise some?). Can someone please tell me the best way to transfer my iTunes library from my PC to my iMac?
    Thanks, Caroline

    Copy the entire /My Music/iTunes/ folder from your PC to /Music/ on your Mac.

  • Itunes has changed the way it stores files over the years and now i am having trouble figuring out which files are where so I can back them up

    Hi
    I have backed up itunes by copying my itunes file to an external hard drive. I try to keep my large media files (like TV shows) in a separate folder so that I can keep my hard drive on my macbook from filling up.  Problem is, apple has changed the way Itunes is organized and backs up over the years.  Now I am having a hard time keeping straight what is where.  When I go to support, it has different instructions for the various versions of itunes. I  am using version 10 now but it seems like I can't see all my files within the itunes music or media folder.  I want to get everything in one place so that I can easily back up, regardless of which version of itunes I am running at the time.
    I have selected to let itunes organize my files.  It keeps all the files I have purchased in one place apparently, but items I have imported don't seem to always be there.
    How can I best sort this out?

    I have, but if I don't have that particular external hard drive connected when my time machine backup hard drive is connected, then I don't think it is all backed up together.  It is getting too complicated to get out all this equipment every time I want to buy some music. 

  • Laptop says 'This version of iTunes has not been correctly localised for this language. Please run the English Version'. Can anyone help please, have no idea what to do and haven't used laptop in over a year. iPad/iPhone have lost tunes from laptop too.

    my laptop will not open iTunes, as it just says 'This version of iTunes has not been correctly localised for this language. Please run the English version'. I have not synconised my iPhone 5S or iPad 2 with iTunes for well over a year. I noticed the music which had previously been put into iTunes has dissappeared from my phone and iPad. I also want to remove some movies from my iPad and iPhone and there is no way I can do this without being able to manually sync with the Laptop which is running windows 7. Has anyone else come across this and please can you help? I am no expert in fact I know very little about the Laptop, it is my Husbands baby but he doesn't understand anything to do with Apple including iTunes. I will need any advise explained step by step please.

    Hi Shelady,
    Try downloading and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes from the first link below. If that doesn't do it, the suggestions in the second article should resolve the installation issue.
