i would like to use my verizon iphone for sprint because i am switching over but i dont know how
Ask Sprint if they can use a Verizon phone. We are just users, and cannot commit the carriers to anything.

Hi, I have a Powermac with Mavericks and a recently purchased iPhone 5S. I just switched from Verizon with unlimited downloads to limited of 500mb per month, so I purchased a Powerlink Outdoor Plus which is supposed to increase the network range for over 1 mile. I am still getting the same distance range with my iPhone with the Verizon router. I was wondering if I need to make adjustments in the Network Settings. Does anyone know about this particular subject?
Thanks,
KevinOkay, I'll admit I don't know much about your configuration. A standard cellular package for a cellphone means you get your signal from a tower somewhere. It won't have anything to do with a router which will be a WiFi connection from a router. If you're talking about that, the Powerlink appears to be a directional antenna. You should get better transmission/reception in the direction it is pointed, but likely worse in other directions than if you were using an omnidirectional antenna. I presume you have it all hooked up correctly so the router is actually using the Powerlink antenna.
By the way, those distance ratings are always exaggerated. Maybe you'd get 1 mile if there was only dry air between you and the antenna and no trees, buildings, etc., and that would probably be just barely getting a signal. You should see improvement but don't go to a coffeeshop 1 mile away in a city and expect to see your router. We have a directional antenna on the roof of our house that looks like a satellite dish and I barely pick up the wireless service node a block away (with apartment buildings in between). Thre may also be a difference between using it to send a signal and receiving a signal. You might even need two, one at each end, to get 1 mile. -
IPhone 4s Voice mail notification not working after switching from Verizon to PagePlus.
iPhone 4s Voice mail notification not working after switching from Verizon to PagePlus. How can I get the notifications working?
Contact your carrier - voicemail, and visual voicemail, is a carrier feature.

I have two libraries on separate computers. If i turned itunes match on in both computers would the two libraries merge? So if my iphone normally syncs with my laptop would i still only get the iphones library or would i get both as one?
Yes, the two libraries should merge. However, you need to turn on match on one computer and let it finish before adding the second library.
Once you turn march on n your phone then you don't sync it with iTunes, but the merged library will show up on the phone. If you don't turn on match on your phone and continue to sync then all of the music from both libraries should be available to sync to it.
The only bit I can't confirm is what happens if you try to sync music to the phone which isnt actually downloaded into iTunes. Im not in a position to test that, but maybe someone else can help. -
I am so tired of iphoto crashing, losing work I've done. I want to switch to photoshop elements 10 but need to know if it uses the iphoto library or if I can import that library into elements
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired. -
I'm have iPhone's & iPads with AT&T. I want to change to Verizon. Can I still use my old iPhone and iPads with the new company?
To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the other ID. When you delete the account it will prompt you about what to do with the iCloud data. If you need to migrate it and merge it with the data in the new account choose Keep on My iDevice; then choose Merge to upload the data and merge it with the new account. If your data is already in the other account and you don't need to migrate it to the other account, choose Delete from My iDevice.

I do enjoy using Mozilla's Firefox as my default browser, BUT, I don't enjoy the details of my life, to include my Internet activity, to be archived by Google, or anyone else, via Mozilla's/Firefox's sharing of my Internet browsing and/or search engine activity with any aspect or facet of the Google organization. With all of this said, my question is, "How do I prevent browsing and search data from being forwarded to Google by Mozilla, while still using Mozilla's Firefox as my default browser?"
Firefox's default behavior includes no automatic interaction with Google.
We do use Google as default search engine and to report web forgery in the 'help' menu, but no data are sent to Google without your knowledge, and you can change your preferred search engine at will.
However many websites themselves make use of Google Ads which do cause interaction with Google when you load the webpages. This is visible in status bar and happens in any browser. The [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/noscript NoScript] add-on for Firefox can largely save you from this problem.
If you see things happening otherwise, please reply with details on what you see. -
I have an iPhone 4S that I purchased new from Verizon back in January 2012. I've started to notice that the 3G data coverage appears and disappears according to whether or not I'm actually using the data. For instance: When the phone is stationary and not using the data, it indicates that I have 3G data coverage. When I click on an app like Netflix (without moving the phone from it's stationary position), data coverage either immediately or soon thereafter switches to a 2G data coverage connection (indicated with an "o" for Verizon). Has anyone else had this same problem? I can't say that this happens everywhere, but in particular, it happens at my work every single time I would like to be able to watch episodes of tv shows on my lunch break.
Yeah I'll need to call and ask because it's very possible that the tower is "congested" as I work in a large city. Hardly seems fair that I would get a diminished data speeds due to congestion of a large city that Verizon indicates it has full coverage on all of their "data coverage" maps. I may have made a different carrier choice had I known that this was going to happen. I wonder if this happens with their 4G towers as well...

After over a decade, I think I'm ready to switch from Verizon.
I lost unlimited when I upgraded, and data costs are ridiculous.
I upgraded in April of 2013. I really wanted a 4G phone because my 3G Droid X wasn't enough for my internet wants. I found out unlimited data was no longer being offered, and I could only buy a limited plan or pay $600+ for a Galaxy S3 which was about to be obsolete (S4 was out already). Given no other options at the time, I went ahead and paid more money for less product (data) and got my new phone. Well, the honeymoon was over pretty quickly. I found 4gb was barely enough for what I was accustomed to using, and certainly not enough for what I wanted to use with my newfound 4G speed.
Couple 'paying more for less' with the fact that friends and co-workers were somehow able to keep their unlimited and upgrade phones at discounted rates, and I had a real bad taste in my mouth. Well its August of 2014, and that taste is still there. Paying $100/month has become really tiresome for 1 phone. A cell phone just shouldn't cost that much in my opinion. So now I'm doing serious research into other carriers, and even pre-paid plans. A simple Google search has shown that Verizon doesn't really need to care about it's customer's concerns, thanks to their near-monopoly on coverage for the past decade. Well that monopoly has changed quite a bit, and Verizon has not.
I want unlimited data. I don't care if it gets throttled after a certain point. I just want unlimited data back. I don't want to pay more than $70/month total for my 1 line plan. I don't need much voice or text. There are no plans to accommodate my wants. Other carriers do have plans to accommodate my wants, and have 4G coverage in my area.
I've been a loyal-paying customer for a very long time, but I feel like that has no value to Verizon. So in a way, this is a final cry for help from Verizon. Will they do anything to retain a good customer? Do I have any options, other than to switch carriers?twizted_3kgt wrote:

Probably not. Good luck with the new carrier. -
I switched from verizon to comcast and need to delete my verizon account
I switched carriers from verizon to comcast. How do I delete my prior email account from my mac and i phone?
Go to the System/Internet Accounts preference pane, select the account and use the "-" button at the bottom to remove it.
Then to to Mail's Accounts preference pane and remove it from there. -
I just switched from verizon to the Iphone 3gs, and my contacts havent transferred from google.
I synced w itunes, with my gmail account listed first. then I manually synced with MS Exchange, still nothing. I never had a problem syncing verizon to verizon phones, what is the deal??
Verizon is not doing that it is the mail that is doing that.
Check your device settings for email and read the owners manual as to how to set up mail to download. How you want it, leave on server, etc.
Good Luck -
Want to switch from PC to MAC but have a few questions first.
Hi
It's time for me to upgrade my old computer and I am seriously considering switching over to a Mac but I have a few compatibility concerns that I would like to address before making my final decision.
I use my PC for business and regularly use Excel, Word and CorelDraw. I have numerous documents that I have created using these programmes. I was wondering firstly if I will have any problems loading CorelDraw onto the Mac and then will I find that I cannot open some of my old documents?
I also have several other programmes that I have downloaded from the internet (for a fee) such as SiteStudio6 and I also have a webpage hosted by Windows Hosting. Will they by usable by the Mac or will I have to download them again for the Mac version (and presumably pay for them again)?
Many thanks
NicoleSo if I understand correctly, I can use my Windows CD to load Windows onto the Mac and continue using Corel Draw and Site Studio 6 that way.
It may need to be a retail Windows disc (the type that is sold separately) to do a fresh installation onto a virtual machine. If it's the type that comes with the PC, it often only works on that PC. But yes, that's the way it works. And as I mentioned, VMware Fusion has a feature that imports your current Windows installation from an existing real PC, so if you use that feature, you would not need to reinstall Windows or those apps. I'm not sure if Parallels has that feature. VMware Fusion is $70; Parallels Desktop is $80. Those are retail prices, so look for specials.
I won't have any difficulty with my Word and Excel documents - Mac should be able to open them using one of its programmes. But do I have to purchase the Mac equivalent of MS Office or is it pre-installed?
If you want Microsoft Office, you have to purchase it separately. There are different versions from the +Home and Student+ edition, to the business edition. iWork, which is Apple's office suite, can open typical office documents; you can download a trial version (it may be pre-installed) that is good for 30 days, so you can see if it will work for you. Even the built-in TextEdit app can open basic Word documents. iWork '09 is $79 retail (you can probably find it for less), which is less than any of the Office editions.
I currently use Outlook to receive mail from my Windows Live Mail account. Is the Mac equivalent of Outlook bundled with the machine and can I import Windows Live Mail into it?
Office for Mac includes Entourage, which is Microsoft's Mac equivalent of Outlook, although it is not exactly the same. I don't know how it would work with "Windows Live Mail." The next version of Office for Mac is supposed to have Outlook. The built-in Mac OS X email program is called Mail. It can connect to standard POP or IMAP email services. Again, I don't know enough about "Windows Live Mail" or "Windows Professional Hosting" to know how it would work with it. If it uses Exchange, Snow Leopard has built-in support for Exchange.
It's a big decision as I doubt I will be able to purchase another computer for at least another 5 years or so
You should probably buy AppleCare with the Mac. Then you are protected against failure due to manufacturing defects for a total of three years. You also get phone tech support from Apple for those three years. The standard warranty is for one year, with 90 days of free phone tech support.
And keep in mind that current Macs are Intel PCs. Some say Intel Macs run Windows better that most "real" Windows PCs. At worst, if you cannot find a Mac solution that is acceptable, you can keep using your current Windows solution. And since you seem to be a creative professional, your actual work will be on what is usually the platform of choice for the creative types. -
Can't receive SMS messages from Verizon Iphone 6 user
I have had an iphone 6+ since it came out. I've had my imessages turned off for several months because it was eating up so much data (all of a sudden...never an issue with my 4s before my upgrade.). Just in the last day, I've noticed I have not been able to receive message from my husband, who also has an iphone 6+ wtih Verizon. I've never had an issue with receiving his messages before yesterday when they just stopped. It shows on his phone that it was sent via SMS on his phone, but nothing shows on mine. I called other family members with iphones and Verizon as well and they have said they have sent me messages as well with no response from me, but I never received them. What's the deal?
1. All are iphone users
2. All are on Verizon's network
3. Sporatic timing of non-retreival of messages
4. iMessages work, but I do not want to use them as it has already caused me to up my data plan twice since upgrading to a new phone.
5. I've restarted my phone several times with no improvementHi Yosef,
I had to delete every one of my apps that I transferred over from my 4s and I was still going over data. I used all the same apps from my 4s and in the same manner and frequency. (I tracked my data useage for 2 years and i never went over 2gb of data). I turned cell data off on EVERYTHING except for facebook which I check occationally and google maps. Once I turned imessages off, I wasn't getting overages. (but I had to increase my plan twice to insure that). Now I can't use the apps I used to have and can't use them except on wifi without going over my data allowance within a few days of my plan starting each month.
I've messaged some family members and they indicated that their messages to me were automatically changing to imessage, though i have had it shut off since October. I did restart my phone yesterday, but changed no settings, which is when I suddenly couldn't recieve messages anymore. All the previous threads were in SMS. Why would it change to imessage within an SMS thread just from a phone restart? -
rying to use the plug in to switch from iPhoto to lightroom
1. Back up your Library now. You don't use iPhoto to back it up, you can do it simply by dragging the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder to the External Disk
2.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
Regards
TD
