Group messaging doesn't work after switching to Galaxy S4

1. Turned off imessage before switching
2. Disconnected my phone number from iTunes, iMessage, FaceTime, Apple, iCloud
3. Deactivated my phone from Apple, however I've gone back on to check 3 times and my phone keeps reappearing on there...not sure how this happens
4. Turned back on my old iphone and whiped it completely to brand new
I have two separate group messages: one with 2 iphone users, one with 3 iphone users. The group message with the 2 iphone users works fine. The group message with 3 iphone users works for ONE of the iphone users, but not for the other two.
They can text me individually and it sends as sms after attempting to send as imessage, but when in the group message it automatically sends as imessage and doesnt allow for the switch to sms.
I've called Apple Care 5 times already, and each time they've suggested something new, asking me to wait 24-hours and then try again. We've all deleted eachother messages and contacts as if we didnt exist any longer and then started a new thread which didnt work either.
Help!

Hi i,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
It's difficult to determine by touch if the PB is hot enough to turn the fans on. Do you know the fan/s used to work while performing a certain function? There are two fans, both in the rear, one centered and the other by the power connection. Neither one turns on, even with the power adapter connected?
One fan "test" I've found to be relatively consistent between 800/867/1GHz TiBooks is to run Visualizer in iTunes for about 15 minutes with the power adapter connected. That has always created enough CPU activity to turn the fans on for every TiBook I've ever tested.
If no fans, I would try resetting the PMU and NVRAM first. If that doesn't work, then I'll take a guess and say there may be some difference in the 800/1GHz firmware (assuming all the hardware connections are correct, as you've stated, and the fans themselves function).

Two finger scrolling doesn't work after switching to lion

I recently upgraded my 2011 macbook pro to lion. All trackpad functions seem to work except two finger scrolling, which worked fine before the upgrade. I found the discussion forum that I've pasted below on how to fix this problem. Being something of a luddite, I don't know how to either check or change the settings in the users global preferences. Some instruction or other thoughts would be greatly appreciated, as I miss two-finger scrolling!
Thanks!
The correct value in the users global preferences file for com.apple.trackpad.scrollBehavior is 2 to enable scrolling.
To set it correctly open a terminal window and type the following:
defaults write -g com.apple.trackpad.scrollBehavior 2
You will have to log out and back to see the setting change. Worked for me.
you can check your current setting by typing:
defaults read -g com.apple.trackpad.scrollBehavior

It'd be much easier to go to System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > Trackpad options... button > check Scrolling.
Regards,
Captfred

After updating to iOs 6 software, sending picture messages doesn't work or is extremely slow. Any advice?

After updating to iOs 6 software, sending picture messages doesn't work or is extremely slow. I have to try to send it multiple times before it will actually send and even then it will take almost ten minutes. Any advice?

So yesterday vibration suddenly started working again, after nearly two weeks with the problem above. I have no idea why, I didn't change any settings and the only app that was updated yesterday was Facebook messenger...

[Solved] Network doesn't work after hibernate?

Hello! This is my first legit Linux install so excuse me if I'm a bit slow. I installed Arch last night and everything went smoothly. However, after I tested out hibernate on my machine, the network doesn't seem to work. Just prior to the hibernate, I installed Pidgin and Skype but they worked alright, so I think that the hibernate caused a problem on eth0.
I have an Asus P8Z68-V Pro motherboard with an Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet Controller that's using the e1000e driver. Running "dmesg | grep e1000e" says that it is up.
I'm not entirely clear here, but from reading, I think that I have several ways of connecting to the network, including network, dhcpcd, networkmanager, and wicd. I am using wicd so I did the following (or at least I think I am only using wicd):
#rc.d stop network
#rc.d stop dhcpcd
#rc.d stop networkmanager
Similarly, I put a ! in front of network in rc.conf:
# /etc/rc.conf - Main Configuration for Arch Linux
# LOCALIZATION
# LOCALE: available languages can be listed with the 'locale -a' command
# DAEMON_LOCALE: If set to 'yes', use $LOCALE as the locale during daemon
# startup and during the boot process. If set to 'no', the C locale is used.
# HARDWARECLOCK: set to "", "UTC" or "localtime", any other value will result
# in the hardware clock being left untouched (useful for virtualization)
# Note: Using "localtime" is discouraged, using "" makes hwclock fall back
# to the value in /var/lib/hwclock/adjfile

# Note: if unset, the value in /etc/localtime is used unchanged
# KEYMAP: keymaps are found in /usr/share/kbd/keymaps

Restarting eth0 through wicd-cli still did not work. I also tried resuscitating the network via instructions on the configure network page before trying to focus solely on wicd.
I found a few similar problems on the forums by searching "wicd hibernate" and tried several solutions but they did not work. Several problems seem to be that the network doesn't work after a suspend because I guess the stuff in RAM did not get saved? But people were able to restart the network by running "/usr/lib/wicd/autoconnect.py" and I wasn't able to get this to work. As a final effort, I added "resume" into mkinitcpio.conf and placed the machine into sleep again to see if it may magically reset something but of course this did not happen .
mkinitcpio.conf:
# vim:set ft=sh
# MODULES
# The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
# run. Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
# in this array. For instance:
# MODULES="piix ide_disk reiserfs"
MODULES=""
# BINARIES
# This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
# wish into the CPIO image. This is run first, so it may be used to
# override the actual binaries used in a given hook.
# (Existing files are NOT overwritten if already added)
# BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
BINARIES=""
# FILES
# This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added
# as-is and are not parsed in any way. This is useful for config files.
# Some users may wish to include modprobe.conf for custom module options
# like so:
# FILES="/etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf"
FILES=""
# HOOKS
# This is the most important setting in this file. The HOOKS control the
# modules and scripts added to the image, and what happens at boot time.
# Order is important, and it is recommended that you do not change the
# order in which HOOKS are added. Run 'mkinitcpio -H <hook name>' for
# help on a given hook.
# 'base' is _required_ unless you know precisely what you are doing.
# 'udev' is _required_ in order to automatically load modules
# 'filesystems' is _required_ unless you specify your fs modules in MODULES
# Examples:
## This setup specifies all modules in the MODULES setting above.
## No raid, lvm2, or encrypted root is needed.
# HOOKS="base"
## This setup will autodetect all modules for your system and should
## work as a sane default
# HOOKS="base udev autodetect pata scsi sata filesystems"
## This is identical to the above, except the old ide subsystem is
## used for IDE devices instead of the new pata subsystem.
# HOOKS="base udev autodetect ide scsi sata filesystems"
## This setup will generate a 'full' image which supports most systems.
## No autodetection is done.
# HOOKS="base udev pata scsi sata usb filesystems"
## This setup assembles a pata mdadm array with an encrypted root FS.
## Note: See 'mkinitcpio -H mdadm' for more information on raid devices.
# HOOKS="base udev pata mdadm encrypt filesystems"
## This setup loads an lvm2 volume group on a usb device.
# HOOKS="base udev usb lvm2 filesystems"
HOOKS="base udev autodetect pata scsi sata resume filesystems usbinput"
# COMPRESSION
# Use this to compress the initramfs image. With kernels earlier than
# 2.6.30, only gzip is supported, which is also the default. Newer kernels
# support gzip, bzip2 and lzma. Kernels 2.6.38 and later support xz
# compression.
#COMPRESSION="gzip"

Not sure if my fstab.conf is useful but if this has something to do with settings getting "lost" in swap, here it is. Linux is on an SSD and HDD (sda and sdc) and Windows 7 is on a HDD (sdb).

Is wicd causing these problems or did I configure something else improperly? Would appreciate any help to get eth0 up again!
Last edited by TheBigCow7 (2011-09-13 17:57:20)

Ok, I think I've made some progress! Hibernate definitely affects my network connection. Could this be a kernel 3.0 problem?
I noticed that ifconfig showed eth0 without an inet addr, just an inet6 addr for the longest time. e1000e seemed to be loading up ok. I'm not certain here, but I think that meant the dhcp settings didn't stick, or something along those lines.
Trying to use dhcpcd like the instructions here did not work. By some chance, one attempt did work and while it did, I downloaded and installed dhclient. After that one successful attempt, renewing the DHCP lease via dhcpcd did not work again.
Luckily though, I found that running "dhclient eth0" worked. My DHCP settings seemed to have somehow gotten messed up after my initial, problematic hibernate to the point where none would stick, even after a reboot. Manually typing in "dhclient eth0" would get eth0 working, so I decided to add it to the bottom of /etc/rc.local, like in the example on the networking page.
Now, eth0 works after a boot. However, after the daemons load up during the boot process, my computer takes a long time to get to the login prompt (this is relatively speaking, since I am on a SSD and the boot process used to be blazing fast before). I'm pretty sure it's because I added "dhclient eth0" to /etc/rc.local.
I should say that even with these changes, after a hibernate, my eth0 still does not work and if it weren't for the edit to /etc/rc.local, eth0's inet settings would still not stick after a reboot (that is to say, the hibernate does do something to my network settings).
Is this the correct/most efficient way to fix my DHCP problem? Can I fix my "eth0 after hibernate" issue? Also, can I make my DHCP settings boot up without changes to /etc/rc.local so that I can get a fast boot again (still not sure how it was able to work before without my edit)?

Sirius Internet Radio doesn't work after Snow Leopard

Sirius Internet Radio doesn't work after I installed Snow Leopard. It works on my Firefox. I emptied the cache on my Safari, but still nothing. Any solutions?

The reason why Sirius Radio online won't work with Safari anymore is because Sirius radio online is only supported by a 32-bit browser. Snow Leopard and all its applications are 64-bit. The best solution is to use firefox. If you still insist on using safari..... Go to adobe.com reinstall adobe flash player. Install/update Flip4Mac. Go to setting for Flip4Mac and check off all the options under the browser tab. Then when you go into Sirius Radio online, you will get an error message, just click okay. Then when you click a station, a quicktime player will come up and you will be able to listen to sirius online radio.

IMessage doesn't work after the installation of the update 5.1

iMessage doesn't work after the installation of the update 5.1

I am unsure whether my issue relates to updating to OS5.1 but seems coincidental that I have only had the problem for the last few days since updating.
I can use iMessage without a problem although some messages are delayed in being sent or received recently. However, I can no longer send MMS picture messages. I have spoken to my provider who has been through all their relevant settings checks. I have restarted the phone (iPhone 3GS), I have tried turning off iMessage to send MMS but still nothing works.
I've had no issue sending MMS picture messages since owning the phone right up until a few days ago.
Has anyone else experienced this or does anyone have any suggestions on anything else I can try please?
Thanks
Jo

IMac - Display doesn´t work after restart

My iMac 21 Display doesn´t work after restart. If I turn it off and 1 hour later I want use it again the iMac shows the white screen with the mac logo and then the display goes off. I connected an external display to check if the iMac was ON and with the external display I can login and do everything but the iMac Display doesn´t work .
If I turn it off and wait 3 or 4 hours and then turn it back on the display works OK.
This is very strange behavior I have spent hours and hours trying to fine the solution or a similar issue but nothing so I am looking help here at apple.com
BTW When I bougth the iMac 21 there were some spots over the display so the display was replaced by the provider. The warranty has expired by now.

To tell you the truth, I don't know if they have to repalce the LCD panel or what they do for a bad backlight. In this reality of block or assembly replacement it probably involves repalcing the panel and not the backlight component. Don't know what it would cost. You'd have to ask that of a service center.
