How I Fixed My MMS Failures

Like many others, I too had a problem with the MMS update on my 3G phone. Let me foreshadow the problem a little....I upgraded from the original iPhone last year to a 3G...
Anyhoo, I installed the carrier update on Friday. Could not send and receive messages. I waited, restored the phone, reset all settings, etc. with no result.
Called ATT Saturday and got the "we're having issues" from the tech. I mentioned all the posts here and possible solutions provided, and the said that the network was overwhelmed because I live in a large market (San Diego) and would work "soon." I mentioned the solutions bandied about on te forums, but he didn't listen to me.
Called ATT Sunday to talk to a tech. After I gave them my phone number and told them about the problem, the tech said that the MMS update does not work on the original iPhone. I told her I upgraded to the 3g a year ago, to which she replied that the system still had the IMEI number from my old phone, and therefore my 3g could not send or receive messages. She entered my IMEI number from the 3G (which is found under the "About" menu), and 2 minutes later, I had MMS enabled.
Soooooo, if you are like me and upgraded from an original iPhone to a 3G or a 3GS, CALL ATT AND MAKE SURE THEY HAVE THE RIGHT IMEI NUMBER IN THE COMPUTER. The solution was so ridiculously easy that I was shocked that this wasn't the first thing that the original tech checked.
Hopefully this helps someone out there.....

I just asked a question about the radio orientation so this does help a bit. Thanks for posting your situation.
I KNOW I could simply experiment with a roving laptop around my house but it sure would be nice for Linksys to provide a handy "antenna pattern" online so we could know the best orientation for our situations. I know "omin-directional" implies all around but that's not really what you get in actuality.
The odd thing is that you say your signal is *barely* better yet you connect better now. That makes no sense as you should be able to connect at a lower signal strength (I do it all the time with my old WRT54G).
Thanks for the info,
Bob

How to fix data post failure of IBY_FD_RECORD_PRINT_STATUS

Multiple (17) instances of IBY_FD_RECORD_PRINT_STATUS concurrent program were waiting on "latch: cache buffers chains" for the same Sql Hash Value of 1286279379. We expected the 17 instances to finish within an hour. This concurrent program was terminated through the GUI after 12 hours .
This is the last program that is run before our process extracts data for OFS db for use in other processes. I believe that the program updates ap.ap_invoices_all (payment_status_flag = "Y") and ap.ap_paymens_schedule_all (payment_status_flag="Y") and removes rows from ap.ap_selected_invoices_all table.
Now we want to manually "fix" the data.
We believe that updating the two tables listed above and removing the invoices from the ap.ap_selecte_invoices_all table will put the data into the status that will allow new data to be loaded.
We need to know if this process is correct. Please advise.

So can I just buy a new hard drive to fix it? If so that isn't a problem

TS3212 How to fix iTunes install failure on Windows 7?

Current ITunes user on Windows 7 & app working fine. Dialog box pops up stating update to install. Proceeded but install failed with suggestion to download update. Down loaded off Apple web site. During installation got message activating mobile devices failed even when user had administrative privileges. I chose ignore. When I ran new iTunes install got "Program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing..." Tried reinstall. Same problem.
Suggestions?

Try the troubleshooting for that error code on this page : Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
Or there is this post which appears to have worked for a number of people : error iTunes Store : 0x80090318 (the solution).

iTunes update 11.0.2. (loaded automatically in the background and signaled in the App Store symbol is delivering failure 103 if I try to install it - any experience how to fix it?

Try just downloading and installing from the Support site - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1614 - instead of the Mac App Store.

Installation of InDesign 7.03 update failure, any ideas how to fix?

After repeatedly trying to install InDesign 7.03 update on my InDesign CS5 I continually get a message saying: Validate license at Pre-chrome" when installing - Creative Suite 5 and the installation fails. I have successfully installed InDesign CS5 updates in the past. Does anybody know why this message is appearing and how to fix it.
Thanks
Mike Cowdroy

I had the same problem with my CS5 Design Premium and this workaround helped for me: Since I'm working on a MAC, I created a second User-Account (admin) and tried the upgrade from here - which worked out fine..! Not the way it should be of course...

How to fix "Email address lookup" failure

Here is a weird one...
I have created a new nickname object which has three email addresses.
They all list OK under "View Email Addresses"
However when testing, GWIA reported "no such user". !!
After double checking the "View Email Addresses" screen for typo's, I did a Tools | Utilities | Email Address Lookup and it fails on the address, but the other two addresses for this nickname object are found OK.
So I deleted the nickname object and recreated it, but it still the 3rd email address can't be found.
Does anyone know why this is the case? Or better yet how to fix this?
Cheers, Gordon

Uwe,
I have synchonised the user object, and strange thing is that the nickname addresses actually appear in the user object under the "View Email Addresses" list, in the "Nickname Email Addresses" section. So the user object looks correct.
I guess that when the Email Address Lookup utility searches as does GWIA, it accesses an address list and not by actually looking at each individual user object's address list. So I just have to figure out why just one of the three nickname email addresses are not making it to this "Email Address Lookup" list.
I might look into doing a PO rebuild, unless there are any other less drastic ideas.

WiFi sync failure "Error -50" - how to fix?

My iPhone 4 syncs over WiFi with iTunes without hitches most of the time. However, at seemingly random times, the sync fails. I do not get any warnings on the iPhone itself, but on iTunes there is an icon with an exclamation point next to the iPhone entry under Devices. Clicking on it shows this:
Does anyone know what this is, what causes it, and how to fix it?
Thank you.

I seem to have solved the problem by applying the fixes related to the photo problems, even though I am not syncing photos. Go figure. So, I deleted the iPod picture cache, connected the iPad with a cable, turned off WiFi syncing, synced with the cable, turned on WiFi syncing, and then synced without the cable.
I did the same for my iPad and it worked, too. One really odd thing that happened, though, was that the first WiFi sync was taking very long, and there were a lot of things being copied. I stopped the sync, went to the computer, connected the iPad with the cable and synced from there. At this point, the entire music library got copied! I clicked on the Music tab under the iPad in the devices area and saw that just about all songs had a symbol next to them, an "X" inside a circle. As the songs were being copied, these symbols disappeared. I have no idea why it did this, for I did not mess around with the music library at all! I have not even turned on iTunes Match. Anyway, the songs were copied and everything seems to be OK on the iPad. No duplicates. The other thing I noticed is that some of the album cover artwork does not show in the Artist view - but the artwork is there, you can see it if you click on the Artist name to see the album details. And, all the artwork shows fine in the Album view. Very strange.

How to fix iphone 5s stack recovery mode..Please help me

How to fix iphone 5s stack recovery mode..i have tried So many ways and aloso tryed with 3rd party software but nothing happens...i trying with iTunes but error 14 message appare..i am from bd that's why in my country doesn't have any apple service center

Error 14 is typically a hardware failure, but can be caused by security software...anti-virus, firewalls, etc. Given what you've posted, I suspect a hardware failure, & if that's the case, you won't be able to restore the phone. You'll need to find a service center to confirm.
