How much is too much to wait for the computer to work

I need some help and ideas on this one since I am about to throw out every Apple product I have out the window.
Let me try and keep it short:
got my iMac end of June
it crashes mid September
took it to authorized service, told it will be fixed in two days, took them 35 days
since I got it back it was always crashing and not working properly even though they said they replaced the hard drive and logic board and that that was the original problem with it
about 20 days later when I saw there are too many problems with it to me something minor (internal mic never worked since I got it back from service, crashing all the time, iMovies won't open because of some mess in iPhoto library, etc)
Apple sent on site repair, the guy replaced 7 parts in the computer!
7-10 days later, the computer shuts down in the middle of the movie and won't turn back on.
Before sending on site repair guy, the senior adviser told me that if the repair doesn't get my computer to stay working, I will get my computer replaced. After the computer died this last time, I called him and can not get him to call me back. I actually called him twice this week, in his work hours and didn't get a call back. So I guess all their "I am so sorry for the inconvenience, we will get to the bottom of this and get your computer working or replace it" is just bs they tell you to get you off the phone??
Now the new senior ad. says I will get replacement if this repair doesn't work. Also was told I will get a call back from repair service in 24 hrs, which didn't happen. So here we go again! I even called the very first sen. ad. I got the number from - yes, you can guess, never heard back from her either.
I have a list of 4 or 5 senior advisers that all tell me to call them if something we agreed on doesn't work, but I never can get to them nor do I get call backs.
So out of the 5+ months I had the computer so far, it worked as much as it was broken. Now with holidays coming, who knows how long will I have to wait.
This is really frustrating, to be told they will fix it or replace it yet I keep having to deal with not having a working computer.
Is there anyone that is above the people that keep giving me their numbers without actually following up that I can contact and find out when can I get a working computer that doesn't have parts breaking down every week!!?!??!??!?

Belle firstly has not been released.
secondly Belle will not be released for existing symbian ^3 or symbian anna phones till after the whole world has Anna, to which Canada and Australia and some other places still do not have.
And lastly Nokia do not do world wide releases, they are released based on carrier approval.
So when it is released it will be given to the carriers first for testing then once approved it will then be released to the public. If it is not approved due to errors it will be taken back and fixed, then resubmitted for testing and so on until it is approved. However if the carrier just says no they dont want it released, then Nokia will not release it at all to any customers that are on that carrier.
So just like Anna, you will have to wait till it is ready and testing has been completed and the carriers give the approval.
Skyee has confirmed that Belle will not be released until after the Anna roll out is completed.
Please be patient

    If you cannot turn off your MBP, hold the power button down for 10+ seconds.
    Then try a SMC reset:

  • For how long do I have to wait for the delivery of my iPad mini 2?

    I bought an Ipad mini 2 16Gb from the refurb 20minutes after it got available on the store, and I thought it would arrive pretty fast with the express delivery, It's been two weeks now and I am still waiting for my iPad, I bought it the 12th of november and that day I got an email that said that the delivery was expected for the 14th of november, the status of the order on apple website is still on "In stock, Ready for shipping" and it still says "delivery estimated for the 14th of november"  I called apple and they said they don't know anything more than I do, on their screen they see the same thing as me (they are useless to make a long story short) I regularly buy from apple usually it takes 3 days maximum. What is going on? can I at least get an updated estimate of the delivery date?

    It may take a few hours or get caught in a spam filter. The quickest way to make a purchase in this case is to create a new Apple ID, but neither iTunes Store credit nor previous purchases can be moved between them. In the case of applications, doing this may also complicate in-app purchases.

  • How will an external Hard drive designed for the macbook Pro work with my White Macbook?  My  white macbook has a Firewire 400 and the G-Tech HD has a 800 to 400 compatible cable for the firewire.

    I am asking this because I want the G-Tech Hard drive  says that it is designed for the macbook pro.  Yet, I want to back up faster with by using my firewire 400 which is not an option on the one designed for the white macbook that does not have a firewire (only a USB port.)  The G-Tech Hard drive comes with the 800 to 400 compatible cable and has 5400 RPM with 750 GB.  Also, I've heard that laptops with low battery (mine all the time)  won't have the power for a bus powered Hard drive (as in no ac plug in adaptor.)  Can I just plug in my laptop?  Any one know the answers from experience with this hard drive?

    As far as I know, if a harddrive works with a Macpro, it should work with the Macbook: if your Macbook is low on power, plug in the AC adapter
    If your Macbook has a firewire port, then it should be fine. BUt i would do somemore research first.

  • How long do i have to wait for the iPhone dev license?

    Hello all..
    I am waiting now for serveral weeks (6!) for my developer licence... but nothing.. no email, no response (just the autogenerated one) from apple (i wrote 2 mails yet..)
    i would just like to know how long did you wait everybody? A friend of mine (and colleague) has also send the request weeks ago now.. the same: no response.. is it maybe for firms easier to get it?
    i bought a macbook air and an iPhone - just do develop.. and i really have to say that i am disappointed.
    i mean: we have really good ideas (at least, we think so) and are doing mobile apps also as our diploma thesis for university.. but we cant test the software without this sh.. licence.
    apple, go on that way and you will lose many creative minds. we all know that your marketing is special, but this is just.. stupid. android is waiting, the opened symbian is waiting.. so, what are you doing?

  • How Much is Too Much?

    Hi everyone,
    I have recently been using my macpro more and more for high-def video work. I usually leave it on 24 hours a day as at night I set up a batch of files in compressor to run over night. Essentially, all my CPUs are maxed almost all the time. I am wondering if this could become a problem? I have read a little about average loads but don't fully understand what they mean. Mine are: 8.60, 7.58 and 7.42 and I am getting pretty high temps on my CPUs, power supplies and hard drives (about 44C, 54C and 39C average respectively). Am I pushing this thing too hard? How much is too much? Please see my system specs below.
    Thanks a lot!
    ~ Philip

    Don't let the drives get to 70C! they can take 50C safely. Memory and graphics are more of a concern. The cpu will protect itself.
    smcFanControl can insure that your fans stay above the default minimums, which is worth taking a look at (freeware).
    Fluctuation in temps between extremes can stress a hard drive and memory.

  • I ordered a battery for my laptop because it said to replace battery soon.  How long can I let the new battery sit around as I wait for the old one to run out of more charge?

    I ordered a battery for my laptop because it said to replace battery soon.  How long can I let the new battery sit around as I wait for the old one to run out of more charge?  Will the new one become less effective if it sits around too long?

    How much capacity is remaining on your current battery?
    Check your power status
    From the  menu: Hold OPTION and click System Information... èHardware è Power
    Copy and Paste in your reply.
    The new battery will become less effective if you store it in a hot or humid environment. It should be stored at room temperature (22 C).
    Long term storage (6 months):
    Apple recommends that you store the battery with a 50% charge. If you store a battery when it’s fully discharged, it could fall into a deep discharge state, which renders it incapable of holding any charge. Conversely, if you store it fully charged for an extended period of time, the battery may experience some loss of battery capacity, meaning it will have a shorter life.

  • How do I make a movie wait for a FLV cuepoint

    I'm trying to synch a "talking head" FLV with some graphics,
    so I simply want to get my movie to wait for a cuepoint to begin
    playing again. I'm making it Flash 7 compatible, so I'm using the
    older Media Display component.
    Is there a "stop" and "wait for cuepoint" that would work? If
    someone could give me the actionscript I should paste in the frame,
    it would be greatly appreciated, since I don't really know
    actionscript that well. Thanks.

    I'm sensing that you don't know much actionscript. If you
    want to do much that is really fun and cool you will need to learn
    some.
    Start with the help files. Everytime you use a new component
    or class go to the Actionscript Language Reference or the Component
    Dictionary. Don't try searching it will generally only confuse you
    more.
    This next bit is going to sound silly, but the differences
    are subtle and please take it in the manner it is offered.
    When you say you'd like to pause at a certain frame you mean
    a movieclip that you have, right?
    If you check all the information about the FLVs and the Media
    component you will find there is absolutely nothing that allows it
    to make a movieclip pause or play. But if you check the MovieClip
    class you will find there are the MovieClip.stop() and the
    MovieClip.play() methods. These are the only ways to get a
    movieclip to pause/stop and or play. There are no others.
    So you have most of the answer there in your second post. It
    is just worded a bit off.
    You need a movie to pause (for which you will use the
    MovieClip.stop() method) and when a cuepoint happens you will need
    to start the movie using MovieClip.play();
    If you check the MediaDisplay component directory there will
    be sample code for how to listen for a cuepoint. I'm still using
    Flash 7 so my help files are organized a bit differently, but what
    you are looking for is under Media.cuePoint.
    Notice the code at the bottom of the entry – READ the
    whole entry, even if you don't understand it all now, read it,
    outloud if it helps. You will need to have an instance of the
    playback component on the stage (in this example it is called
    myPlayback, but you could call it whatever you wanted, just make
    sure that both names are the same.
    I recommend trying this outside of your current project. Set
    up a simple new document, put an instance of the playback component
    on the stage, give it an instance name, assign an FLV to it, give
    it a cuepoint or two, and then add the listener code, just as it
    is. See how it works? Do you get the trace statements?
    Then you can develop it a little further. Add some named
    movieclip to your stage. Add a line myClip.stop(); Also notice that
    you can give your cuepoints names? Put a few in and call some start
    and some stop (or whatever you want.) Then instead of a trace in
    the cuepoint listener have something that says, "If the cuepoint is
    called start I should tell the movieclip to play and if the
    cuepoint is called stop I should tell the movieclip to stop/pause."
    I could easily write all this code out for you, but what
    would be the fun of that for you? Give it your best shot and post
    back as you accomplish things.

  • So... how long do we have to wait for a RAW update for the Nikon D600 camera?

    So... how long do we have to wait for a RAW update for the Nikon D600 camera?

    Adobe releases Camera Raw every 3 or 4 months. The D600 itself was launched only about 1 week ago. I'm sure its not included in ACR 7.2 RC yet. Nikon J1 is included though. I guess you're gona have to wait for it. Maybe 7.2 final release will have it or 7.3 should. Adobe employees/ product team will not commit to a time for Camera Raw releases.
    However, you can use the software Nikon would've given you to convert your images as TIFF and import them into Lightroom/ Photoshop if you're in a hurry. It would be nice if your camera supports DNG conversion out of the box! This way, you wont need a Camera Raw from Adobe.
    Anyway, you could file a 'Feature Request' to Adobe here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
    Good luck.
