HT5037 Running in circles

I have an older iPhoto library saved on an external HD. I tried to run the iPhoto upgrader on the old iPhoto library. After routing that library, my MBA tries to open the library in my new iPhoto, but it still says I need to upgrade the old one. Now whenever I click on iPhoto, I can't even access my new photos (saved to my MBA), and it just runs the upgrader. How do I get my old photos while still viewing the new ones? Right now, I have neither. Thank you.

What version of iPhoto do you have? What version was the old library created in? What version of the OS do you have?
Depending on the undisclosed versions double clicking on the iPhoto library will produce different results - the sure way to switch libraries with no version dependency is to hold down the option key while launching iPhoto until the select library window appears and select the library you want - this works with all versions
In short without details we can only give general answers

3.0 Running in Circles - Can't access

I've been using this new computer with all new install xp sp3 and AA3.0. This has worked for more than 6 months, no problems. I now have a UAD card installed and everything has worked. With this new system I haven't needed to lock any effects, no problems untill now. I'm working on a slightly bigger project and locked some effects and then the program stopped. The message I get is:
Shutting down. To continue where you left off, you must restart Audition. And I select "OK" Now I get "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library. R6025 pure virtual function call" message. I can't get into Audition to undo what I've done.
Some sessions are unreplaceable.
I understand some kind of corrupted registry file or something like that.
Any suggestions?
Donnie

My comp. guru fixed it in about 10 minutes. I had a bad file. It was deleated and automatically put back correctly. Works fine now.

Hi Donnie,
Do you recall the precise last steps you took before Audition stopped working? Did it crash and start giving this error when you launched it again, or did this just occur at random after working fine the previous time?
How far does the start-up process get before you receive this error? Do you see the Audition splash screen? Does it begin to show the UI before crashing? Have you already installed the Audition 3.01 update patch?
My first suggestion would be to wipe the application preferences and try launching it again. To do this, rename the following "3.0" folder to "3.0.BAK" and then launch Audition
XP: C:\Document and Settings\<your username>\Application Data\Adobe\Audition\3.0\
Vista/Win7: C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Audition\3.0\
Renaming the folder instead of deleting it will retain your previous preferences and effects presets in case this is not the problem.

Sign in running in circles

I'm having a problem with a pending bank transfer, for some time and when I try to contact support with an online form it signs me out of account, when I press sign in I am back signed in, but have no way to send proof of payment, and keep running in circles with the sign in. Someone help me please!

Hi Barney,
Thanks for taking the time for a comment and try to help.
I tried all the options you suggested, but it doesn't seem to help me any further.
The cmd-opt-p-r suggestions only seems to reboot my MacBook?
That is what it does, but it also resets what is called Parameter RAM or NonVolitile RAM (PRAM/NVRAM).
Sometimes, that will fix problems where the boot drive is not recognized.
Here is Apple's article on startup issues; however, it doesn't reflect the use of the Recovery HD (what has been failing for you). Instead, it talks about booting from your original install disk. You might try booting with your original install DVD if you can't get into Recovery. If does have some things to try to resolve the problem.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
I'm thinking at this point your hard drive is damaged.
Try booting into Single-User mode and repair the disk following this article (I think Apple has a similar one, but I can't find it):

Recovering cold backup - running in circles - part 2 -Second opinion needed

Hello all,
Here I'm again but this time not to ask for a complete solution where I have to do nothing but a second opinion and some help in solving.
In the thread [Recovering cold backup - alter database open failing - running in circles |http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=9663720] , I was trying to recover a database (I still am) for one of our clients.
Since then a few things have changed, from our client we have no received the installation media for their database software: Oracle 10.0.1.0.2.
I have installed this on a Linux, an opensuse while they used a RHEL 4, placed the database files in the a similar map structure as theirs and made sure that all the ORACLE variables were correctly set, we have also received the pfile and I made the corresponding initfile from.
I start sqlplus / as sysdba
Mounting the database no problem.
Trying to open the database I receive the following error ORA-01207: file is more recent than controlfile – old controlfile, the error refers to the Datafile 2: '/home/oracle/product/10.1.0/oradata/orcl/undotbs01.dbf'.
Their is no corresponding error message in the alert log, well their is but it doesn't really give me the information I was looking for.

So that could mean that they've just taken a copy off the files without offlining the database first, anyway to confirm this.
I've come to a point where I have not an immediately clue of what to do, some help even a little push could be helpful.

Since updating the recent OS on my iPad my location services do not work. Maps "Cannot determine location" and "Find Me" is running in circles. How can I delete the update on my iPad???

You can't delete the update and your problem probably is not in the Update.
Check to see if Location Services is turned ON. (Settings > Privacy > Location Services)
What model iPad Mini do you have? WiFi or WiFi + Cellular
Have you recently changed WiFi routers?

I can't update my apps nor download apps it just keeps running in circles

I can't update my apps nor download apps it just keeps running in circles. This has happened in this new year. Can anyone give me some help? It would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Doris140 ,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like you might have apps that are stuck on “Waiting," and the following is a past discussion that dealt with a similar issue and may help you as well:
App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.

I purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 12. Logged in and can not get serial number. Says it is incorrect. Going in circles.

Can't get serial number for Photoshop Elements. I'm logged in. I have a redemption code and also codes on the back of the box. nothing works and am running in circles. I want to install and use it and can't because I can't get the correct serial number. On the front of the box it says use the card (with redemptiom code to receive the serial number.HELP!!!

Dear Brian,
I activated my product in August of 2014. I had it a few months, October, when my computer crashed. Therefore I had to go back to Adobe tell them what happened, and then until December I had noticed that it said that I had a trial copy. I was not worried, as I had the serial number. it was working, but in January I got a message that my "trial" copy had expired.
At that time I had contacted Adobe and was told that because it was beyond the 3 months, they would no longer help me.
Therefore, at one point, when the computer crashed, I had not deactivated the program. But Adobe had gotten it working for me again.
I do not know what happened between October and December to have changed the software from a real copy to a trial copy.
Now to your patient questions.
As you wrote, that is what happens to the point of getting the trial copy, but when I follow the process through, I get a message that my "trial copy has expired". When I go the the editor, the whole process loops again, sign in, trial copy, licence page, add serial number, then the message that the trial has expired.
When I got that message the first few times months ago, I went back to the Adobe web site and downloaded another copy. (I have done this numerous times) It still said that I had a trial copy and that it had expired, there is a box to licence this software, when I click that, I have to sign in again, This time I also had gone to the Adobe web site signed in and left it open, while I put in the serial number, hoping that would help (have also tried that before). It waits and then the Editor/Organized box comes up again. When I go to the Editor, it tells me that this is a trial copy which has expired and it starts all over again.
I was so frustrated, that I waited a couple of months to try it again. The thinking was that there was some glitch that would work it self out and I could again down load a clean copy of the original, not a trial. (I do not know how I keep getting a trial copy of PSE 12, as it is not even offered on the site.)
The crazy thing is this morning when I turned on my computer, I had an update for the Adobe PSE 12 and Camera Raw. Probably because I had downloaded a copy again.
When I go the the web site to down load a copy of the PSE !2, I am doing it from the My accounts/ products page and downloads. I have left the web page open to copy the serial number from that page, although it always matches my notes.
ThanksT

Since I updated to maverick my computer is running so slow and office pro is crashing

Back up your documents and everything else important to you, not that there is any reason to believe your hard disk may be failing, but the symptoms you describe may presage an impending disk failure, and you should have backups anyway.
To help determine the possible causes of this behaviour read the following. None of what follows is intended to fix anything, but it will provide the additional information required to advance troubleshooting:
Boot OS X Recovery by holding ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
When it finishes restart your Mac and test again for operation. If it's still not behaving as you expect it should, please post the results of EtreCheck in accordance with the following instructions:

Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.
System performance problems for reasons that cannot be isolated to any other cause justify an SMC reset. Be sure to read the procedure carefully and follow all the steps exactly as written, even if they seem inapplicable or trivial.

Thank you to all for the help and consideration,

You appear to be using AS3 code in an AS2 setting. Go into your Publish Settings and change the actionscript version to AS3 in the Flash section.
Other matters...
You do not need to import the URLRequest class while coding in the Flash IDE.
You need to put an argument in the function definition due to the listeners throwing one when it is triggered...

I'm moving this thread here, because it wasn't getting any attention. I had it buried in some obscure tutorial comment section--a niche void of the netherworld. Anyway, I copied it all over because I was tired of listening to myself. My hope is to help those, like me, who are total n00bs to websites and web hosting. Be sure to read thru the post first or you'll make the same mistakes I did! :-). It can be discouraging. Also, I hope to get help from others who have forged ahead, and who can shed some light on questions I have as they develop. Thanks in advance.

My setup: Windows XP Pro, xampp, and DW4. I have an AT&T DSL modem that acts as a router (i can configure it to forward ports, etc.). Also, I have a registered host name with dyndns (example: myhost.dyndns.org). Moreover, I have an update client from dyndns that supposedly updates my IP address if/when my ISP changes it.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but as I understand it an end user types in my dyndns host address into their browser's address bar. Dyndns redirects them to my external IP, which I'm assuming is my router's IP. Then, my router forwards the request to my pc, which is a different IP, right? So, if I setup a virtual host on my pc that redirects any request coming from my dyndns host to a specific vhost folder, why would I need a static IP address? I set one up anyway, because just about every post I read on the subject of hosting your own website said to do so.
I've installed Xampp and both the Apache and MySQL apps are running. I've also started the FileZilla app. I have forwarded the TCP ports on my router (21, 80, 8080, 3306). I have a registered host name at DynDNS.com, and their Open Port Tool indicates that my external IP is open and accepting connections. I have completed all three parts of the "Building your first dynamic website..." This created a "Feedback" website that I am trying to "put" on the web (just to learn how to do it). I edited the httpd and httpd-vhosts files to setup virtual host containers for my localhost and DynDNS host (using NameVirtualHost = *:80 consistent with my containers, and yes I added the permissions directive to the httpd-vhosts file). I did this because, from what I gathered on several forum posts, I needed a virtual container to redirect requests coming from my DynDNS host to the proper website. My "feedback" website functions just fine locally.
In an attempt to "put" my website on the web where others can see it, I setup a virtual host folder called E:/vhosts/Feedback. The directoryroot in httpd-vhosts points to this location. In the DW4 "Manage Sites..." dialogue box for remote info I selected local/network, localhost, and targeted the E:/vhosts/Feedback folder. This seemed to work as the site was "uploaded" to that folder (I could see them in windows explorer). However, I still could not visit the site from the web. Next, I tried several different remote info configurations. The only one I felt came even close to working was when I ran the FileZilla app and used FTP (to configure the remote info in "Manage Sites..."). With the FileZilla admin window open I could actually see myself logging in, but it could not find the E:/vhosts/Feedback folders. The error said that the file did not exist or there was a permission problem. Well, the files do exist (I can see them in windows explorer); and I thought that entering the following directive in my httpd-vhost file would avoid any permissions issues:
<Directory E:/vhosts>
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
</Directory>
So, I finally broke down and bought custom DNS services from dyndns.com for $30/yr. This allowed me to register a domain name in addition to the free hosting service I had already signed up for. I was expecting an email with the FTP info for the remote info dialogue window in DW4, as mentioned in some posts. I did NOT receive any such an email. Now, I feel like I just wasted 30 bucks.
I have spent 2-3 hours a night for that past few days trying to figure out how to "put" my Feedback website on the web either from my own computer or a hosting service. I knew nothing about websites prior to downloading the DW4 trial version roughly 6 days ago. I would not have been able to tell you the difference between a static and dynamic site. I've learned a lot since then thanks to these tutorials and moderator feedback, but only enough to realize how much more is out there. I've only scratched the surface so to speak. However, I've been running in circles lately and I just don't understand what's going on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I find it simply astounding that these tutorials would go so far as to instruct me on how to download, install, and setup xampp, create a database in myPHPadmin, setup local and test servers in DW4; and yet, somehow neglect to instruct me on how to configure these apps to make the site available from the web. I mean, what is the point of creating a WEBsite if I can't put it on the WEB?!
3/22/2010 - Horse bucked me off into the mud...time for a new horse!
Good news: I got a refund from DynDNS. They only offer domain name and host name services--not website hosting! I had misunderstood them to be a web hosting service. Also, I think I know what the problem was. The static IP I set from my router was still "private." I needed to have set it to a public, external, static IP, right? Anyway, I've given up on the whole self-hosting thing. Gonna try GoDaddy.
3/23/2010 - Remember that story about the frog who could only jump 1/2 the distance to the end of the dock? I know EXACTLY what that feels like...
Now, I have some kind of database problem. I was successful in uploading my feedback website to GoDaddy. However, when I viewed my page there were some "localhost" SQL database errors that I'm assuming were generated because the database I was referencing in my site is actually located on my machine. So, I created a similar database on GoDaddy's PHP server, but when I go to update the location of my database in DW4 (double-clicking the db in the databases panel) it times out looking for the server, and crashes DW4 every single time. A window pops up that says "File Activity - localhost" and it just sits there until I close it. Then, DW4 crashes (I click the End Now button).
What do I have to do to get DW4 to use the databases I created on my host's PHP server?
3/24/2010 - Eureka! I'm going streaking! C'mon everyone!
It works! I can't believe it actually works! It's sooooo beautiful when it works!
It was the Test Server configuration! The name is what misled me. I figured the Test Server was for testing purposes only--a local place to check the functionality of my site before uploading it. But, no! It actually determines which Application Server is acting on my website. That's why DW4 kept crashing. I was attempting to establish a database (MySQL) connection to my Host's Application Server with my Test Server configured for localhost! I had a hunch this was the case, but I wasn't sure where the Application Server was located--whether on my Host's web server or on their Application (PHP) server. I was trying to put the SQL connection info in the Test Server configuration box. Recalling a diagram from a tutorial it dawned on me that they're both in the same place! Once I set my Test Server to the same location as my web server (remote info)...voila! The only difference being the pathname: "/" for the test server, and "/feedback" for the remote info. I could then edit my database connection without crashing. I noticed I had to export my database from my local App Server (myPHPadmin), and import it to my Host's App Server (also myPHPadmin) in order for the website to function properly.
So, this experience has raised some new questions:
1. Why aren't there profiles within the site manager that would allow me to select whether I want to test locally or remotely? As it is, I have to go in and manually change the test server to my machine's local App Server each time I want to test locally, and then change it back to my Host's App Server when I want to upload my site. Moreover, I have to edit the database (MySQL) connection to point to a local database stored on my app server to test locally, and change it back to test remotely; which means I have to export the database from my Host's App Server, and import it to my local App Server!
2. If I had more than one test server, presuming I diversified my Hosts to have a backup site ready to go in the unlikely event GoDaddy's Scotsdale AZ datacenter got nuked, how would the website I was working on locally in DW4 know which site to use (from my Site Manager...)? In other words, if I have two test servers in my DW4 Site Manager, how does the website I'm working on know which test server to use? It seems to me that in order to establish a MySQL connection in the database panel, I need to have the correct Test Server configured. But, if there's two how does it know which one to use? The reason I ask is because when I click the [+] button in the database panel it only asks for a SQL server. There is no option to select a site. If the SQL database connection depends on the Test Server, how would it know which one of my two test servers is acting on the database?
2.a. Why doesn't DW4 call the "Test Server" what it really is--an Application Server?! Had this distinction been evident in the "Category" column of the DW4 Site Manager, it would have saved me a 6-day trip to a new dimension of pissed off!
3. What happens to my website when I try to edit the files located on my remote site? I noticed when I attempt to load them (by double-clicking the file in my remote file panel) that a window pops up asking me if I really want to open a "dependent" file. Does this mean my site will not function properly when I'm editing the remote file? Or, does DW4 download a copy of it?

Not compatible with the formal parameter "NEW_ITEMS"

Dear,
I'm creating a very simple WD4A to just display the contents of the table.
So in the COMPONENTCONTROLLERS I created the node ZPI_USERS, according to the type of the internal table ZPI_USERS we have on the PI system.
Still in the COMPONENTCONTROLLER under methods I'm trying to implement this code in the 'wddoinit' event:
METHOD wddoinit.
DATA: lt_users    TYPE zpi_users,
        node_users TYPE wd_this->element_users,
        lo_nd_users TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
        lo_el_users TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.
* navigate from <CONTEXT> to <USERS> via lead selection
lo_nd_users = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_users ).
SELECT * FROM zpi_users
           INTO lt_users.
    lo_nd_users->bind_table( new_items = lt_users ).
ENDMETHOD.
On trying to activate I get the following error :
Web Dynpro Comp. / Intf. ZPI_DISPLAY_MONIUSERS,Web Dynpro Component Controller COMPONENTCONTROLLER
Method WDDOINIT
"LT_USERS" is not type-compatible with formal parameter "NEW_ITEMS".
I know I'm overseeing something very simple, though I get the feeling I'm running in circles. Again: the only thing I want to do is show an internal SAP table through a Web Dynpro.
Kind regards,

Hi,
You have declared
DATA: lt_users    TYPE zpi_users,
This means that you are declaring a work area and not an internal table, whereas while binding we need to pass an internal table.
Declare your table as follow,
DATA: lt_users    TYPE TABLE OF zpi_users.
" modify your select
    SELECT *
      FROM zpi_users
      INTO TABLE lt_users.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
Radhika.

Makes me wonder if I picked the right phone company

I have been a dedicated Verizon Wireless customer for about 3 years now. Couple months ago I renewed my contract for another 2 years. I was really excited about getting a new device which would give me more options of doing things online and being able to enjoy the convenience of the 4G speed. Screen protection, double cover for the phone, hands-free - I got it all! Everything was great until a few days ago my phone simply shut down on me. Of course the first thing I decided to do was to call customer care. A representative was trying to help me fix the problem but nothing would work. So I went to a Verizon store and asked them to trouble shoot the device. It turned out that my almost brand new phone was not in a condition to ever work again. So I was told by a customer representative at the store that they were going to order a replacement device for me and I was supposed to get it over night. We are all very busy people and those of us who are lucky enough to have devices that help us bank online from our phones, check emails and set up tasks and meetings on everyday basis would understand the frustration of not being able to perform everyday tasks because the phone you relied on is broken. Since there`s no such thing as a loaner phone any more, I was sent on my way without being able to communicate. I travel a lot between two states - working in one, living in the other. The thought of being on the road and simply not being able to even make a phone call in case of an emergency is pretty terrifying (don`t you think?). I placed quite a few phone calls to customer service to see when my phone was going to be delivered to the house. Unfortunately the lady on the other end of the line told me she couldn`t locate my tracking number and probably it has not been processed yet. She asked me to call back first thing next morning. My simple question was: From what phone do you want me to call you back? Pretty reasonable question actually! It felt like we were just running in circles. That night I managed to find one of my old devices which happened to work, so in the morning I could activate it and be able to place phone calls and check my emails. As I made it back to the Verizon store the next morning and asked a gentleman who was helping me about the tracking number and delivery time, I was shocked to hear that my phone was not going to make it to place of my residency that day. Matter of fact he told me it was going to take 3-5 business days and the phone has not even been shipped yet! I was speechless. One person tells me overnight, another one tells me 3 to 5 business days.. I understand there`s certain policies and procedures but they could have at least stuck to the same story! I asked to change the delivery address so it would have been easier for me to get the package (like I said I run between two states all the time). The answer I received was No, we cannot do that. I asked them to just activate my old phone and headed out for an appointment. I was not thrilled with the way it all has been handled but I decided to let it go. Little did I know, that was not the end of that problem. I called the Verizon customer care once again with the same questions: what is my tracking number and when is the device going to be delivered. Still could not get an answer for any of those questions. The lady on the phone told me that I would get a call back when they finally get the information I`m acquiring. Well let`s put it this way, I would have still been waiting for that phone call, if I did not call them back two days later. Finally I got that "magic" box with my replaced Motorola Razor. Feeling relief and excitement I went back to the store to get my phone set up again. Sales clerk asked me if I had a Sims card for it. I told him that there`s one in my old phone. He explained to me that it was not going to be working. Can you imagine the expression on my face as he was telling me all that?! All I could think about was how they could not have ordered another Sims card if they knew the old one was not good any longer. The sales clerk offered to order one for me with an overnight shipment. I said: just like my phone being shipped over night and it took like 4 days??!! So he said that they had cards in the store that I could buy. And I did simply because I needed my phone back ASAP. I never knew that the warranty covers only the phone, but not its parts! It`s like buying a brand new vehicle off the lot with no gas in it!! Ridiculous was the word of that moment. So now I`m wondering if I made the right choice when I picked Verizon as my cell phone company. After all I can take my $100/month bill somewhere else. If that`s how clients are appreciated by the company, I don`t feel like I need to keep my service with Verizon or for that matter refer any of my friends, family members and customers to Verizon.

Or were you referring to the one in the old temporary replacement device? Would that even be compatible with the newer phones?
The one that wasn't working had a 4G LTE SIM card in it. It should have usable in the replacement Razr. It was only until I read the OP a third time this morning that there might be a third device involved. It would be nice if people would give more specifics on what devices are active at what time. Then the readers of this community can follow the progression of the events better.

My original Apple ID is giving me grief when I try to log on to Support- Communities. Can somebody help?

I had to create a new email address, then using the new email address I created this Apple ID to log in here. But my normal email address (and original Apple ID) is giving me nothing but grief when I try to log on to support->communities. On my iPhone: [ When I type in my normal email address and password, I'm taken to another login page that says in red letters "Please sign in again. For added security, we need to reconfirm your Apple ID." When I re-enter my password, I get an error "Safari cannot open the page. The error was: "cannot decode raw data". " ]
On my iMac running Firefox, same story but the error is something about unable to load data because of an unsupported compressed format, and it says to contact the web administrator (which would be Apple) - when I press the button "try again" it gets me to the appleid.apple.com page that asks me to pick a user name (to be seen by other members of the community). From there I also run in circles (see below):
Telephone tech support keeps sending me to appleid.apple.com which also gives me nothing but grief: it asks me to pick a user id (a nickname to be used in the forums) but when I do, I get the error message in red font telling me that there is already somebody using my Apple ID (which is of course my email and therefore is my account) -- so why are they asking me to pick a user ID if I already have one? This is very frustrating. When I call and talk to tech support, they try to get me to buy extended service to help me log in, but the reason I'm trying to log in to support->communities is because I can't afford extended service. The people patient enough to stay on the phone tell me to go to iTunes and fill out a support request, but there's no option to fill out a support request for website difficulties. Please help!
I think this is probably because my original Apple ID was "mtalldude" and instead of creating a new account when Apple switched to using email addresses as Apple IDs I just changed my ID to my email address. My original ID may be ten or twenty years old. I don't mind saying that my new login id (the one I'm having trouble with) is sal_mander at hotmail in case a website administrator is reading this and can help me and needs this info and can reset whatever is broken and is not allowing me to pick a user name. Please don't spam me fellow humans!

Thanks for the flag J.K. - they contaced me and solved my problem. On this account (which I created just to ask this question), I log in with my email rather than my user name (mtalldud). On the account that I was having trouble with, they told me to use my user ID instead of my email to log in and it worked. This is a bit confusing and seems a bit inconsistent but at least I don't need this temporary account any more to get into this community and find answers!

IPhone 4S shutting down after iOS7 and support from Apple Chat

So, my iPhone is shutting down suddenly with battery at about 40% and saying that it ran out of juice, asking me to plug in the charger. When I do it, it shows 40% again. It looks like other people have similar issues with not only the 4S, but iPhone 5 as well.
I tried to contact the char support and well, read by your self below. Not only nothing was solved, but the support just hanged up the chat on me, and didn't answer my last question. That's really not what I expected from Apple. Well, that's it, no more iPhone in my household.
Case ID is 537464016 in case anyone from Apple wants to check it out. I'm selling this iPhone and never coming back.

Hi Janan
Hi Luccas, how are you doing today?
Good thanks. I have an issue with my iPhone 4S
Luccas, from what I see in the pre-chat notes you provided, it looks like you are having an issue with Battery life. Is this correct?
Since I updated it with iOS7, the phone is shutting down suddenly when the battery is below 40%
I wait then about 10 min, or I do plug in the charge, and the battery shows 40% again
I tried to restore the phone using iTUnes
twice
but the issue is still happenning
Did you set up your phone as new after restoring?
yes
How long until the unexpected shut downs started up again then?
straight away
I found your diagnostics… Give me a moment to have a look?
ok
Ok, there may be an issue with your battery, but we’ll need to have you do some troubleshooting before we can verify that it needs replacing. How does this sound to you?
sounds good
One moment while I tic the boxes of the things you’ve already done please
ok
Do you show any appellations in your App store that needs updating?
no
Do you lock your iPhone when not in use to shut the screen off?
yes
How bright have you set your display?
it's on automatic
Do you use Wifi mostly?
at home and at work yes, so it's on wifi most of time
Do you have a lot of applications pushing notifications to you?
no, the phone doesn't have a lot of apps, especially after I restored it
Understood
Do you use your phone for emails?
yes
On your phone, would you go to Settings > Mail, contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data for e please?
yes
it's set to push
but I don't use the mail app from Apple
I use the Gmail application
Ah… Ok
So there’s no email used there.
Back up to the Settings page please?
ok
Go to General > Background App Refresh now
yes, I disabled most of the apps her
I just have the Gmail app and the Google Maps
as these are the ones I use most
LOL… You are the perfect user!
What about Location Services?
it;s on, but again, just for google maps
Ok
and the find my phone service
Exactly
Let’s go back into General then Usage please?
Sorry, Nevermind, I can view that from your diagnostics...
ok
Do you use Instagram?
yes
That’s caused some memory issues of late...
Your battery is starting to show wear though
I didn't have any issues before updating to iOS7
the battery was working perfectly fine
never have any shutdown
Your battery is also 2 years old
One of the updates addressed battery issues and since you’ve restored your iPhone, it appears that it is on its way out.
the battery was 2 years old last month as well, when I had iOS6 and was working fine
I have done all updateds
I certainly apologize about the inconvenience this issue is causing.
But since you’re using your phone correctly, your restore hasn’t had any affect, this is the only conclusion I can reach
so, what's the solution?
can I come back to iOS6?
I’m afraid there’s no way to go back to iOS 6
so, I can't come back to the OS my phone was working properly, and I have to stick with a OS where my phones shutdown in the middle of the day with half battery full
Again, it isn’t the fault of the operating system software.
so, can you explain me why not?
if with iOS6 the battery didn't have a problem
and suddenly, when I update, I have an issue?
You have restored your phone and set up as new. If that fixed the battery life, then it was a software issue. If not, it was a hardware issues
look, if I come back to iOS6, the batttery issue is gone
so, it's a software issue
One moment while I get a senior advisor for you please?
ok
There’s just a few minutes wait time.
no problem
Just checking back… Our chat volume has gone up since Phone Support closed. This isn’t a normal wait but I’m still waiting with you.
that's fine
Still waiting with you
ok
Luccas, your problem requires extra knowledge and skill so I've got Calvin, one of my senior advisors taking over from here to make sure your problem gets the attention it deserves if that's okay with you. It was my pleasure to assist you today and I will leave you in Calvin's capable hands.
Thanks Janan
Hi Calvin
You’re welcome… One moment and I’ll transfer you
You are now being connected to another Advisor. Please standby.
Thanks for contacting iOS. My name is Calvin. Please give me a moment to look over your information.
Now Chatting with Calvin
ok
Hello Luccas, I see that your device is shutting down when the battery gets to about 40%, is that correct?
correct
I am really sorry to hear that, I can see that being frustrating.
it shows that image saying to plug in the charges as the battery is dead
I looked over the diagnostic it shows pass but its in yellow.
yes, especially if you consider that was working just fine one month ago before I updated to iOS7
I understand, it may cause people to think its the software but really what happens is during a restore or update sometimes it just brings the existing issues to the surface.
As even though your battery pass, its in yellow signifying its ready to failed but it appears its already failing.
Normal battery passes, its in green.
Since you have already restored it as new. That pretty isolated the issue.
sorry, I still don't get it. In one version of the software, my battery lasted the whole day without any issues. Now, after updating, the battery shutsdown at 40%. That's software issue for me. And, more important, if I wait about 10 to 15 min and try to turn on the phone. It's back again, and last until is about 30%, than, the same issue occurs.
If iOS6 was able to handle the battery just fine. I would like to be able to install it again
I understand you do have some concerns regarding iOS 7 and would like to revert back to your previous software. In order to avoid compromising your device in anyway the software is only designed to move forward. Downgrading the iOS is a feature that Apple cannot assist with as well as recommend since it can negatively affect your device.
However, we are always open to suggestions from our customers. Using this website (apple.com/feedback) would be the best option for submitting your concerns directly to Apple. We love to hear from our customers and future updates may even include specific features suggested to us by our customers.
Now keep in mind we have hundreds of millions of iOS device out there and most of them are running iOS 7 and running it fine.
In my case, upgrade the software affected negatively my device.
and a quick search on google shows that a lot of people have similar issues as me
Ok, we're running in circles here
You can do a search for iPhone anything and you will bring up a lot.
I though you would come and offer a solution
but you're just appologizing
not the kind of support I would expect from a premium product
The solution would be an out of warranty paid service.
not sure if would pay the premium next time
I don't see this as a solution. Because was an upgrade of software that made my phone stop working properly
I am sorry, I would have to respectfully disagree. I do agree that you notice the issue after the update. However does not mean that the update cause the issue.
So, explain me why in iOS6 it did happen?
I am sorry but there is just too many possibilities out there and I would just be speculating.
ok, so, at the same time that doesn't mean that the upgrade it's the cause, it could possibly mean that it's the cause, do you agree?
So explain to me why hundred of millions of units are running it fine?
I can't say about the hundred million of units
and that's not an issue that I care about
If even a fraction of the people had this call. I would not be talking to you as there would be huge backup of customers waiting.
what I care about is that the phone I paid 800 swiss francs is not working after a software update
I have a problem, and I'm contacting the customer service, so I care about being taking seriously and looking at the issue in my device
telling me that hundred of millions of devices works, and mine doesn't, that's not helpful
Ok, let me have you call phone support in you’re region. So that they can open up a engineering ticket and get you a response directly from engineering.
United Kingdom
(44) 0844 209 0611***
so, now you're saying that the last hour of my time has been useless because it's not you that can solve my problem?
and worse, you're making my self calling someone else and loosing even more time?
What I am saying is you are not accepting my solution and you believe you are correct.
So lets go with your direction to get you an answer directly from engineering.
no, you're asking me to pay for a new battery
That is my solution.
and you're expeculating that's the solution
you're not sure about that
You disagree so lets go get you an answer from higher up, do you not like that solution?
Lets agree to disagree and find you the answer you want.
Period.
ok, but I don't want to loose more of my time to call someone. And pay for the call
Debating this with me is not going to get us anyhwere.
I can setup a call back for you if you like.
you have access to the customer service system and could open a ticket
What number is best to reach you at?
+44 07445376676
just for my information
what they will look at?
anything they will do differently?
Call is schedule for 8:00-8:15 AM.
tomorrow?
Saturday.
Greenwich time.
ok, again, can you tell me what they will look at? anything they can see that you couldn't?
Thank you for your time.
Your chat session has ended. Thanks for using Apple's chat support

Sounds like you have a battry issue but don't want to believe it.
If a car was running fine on one tank of gas, then you filled it up with another tank of gas and it began to run funny, one might suspect that tank of gas. But let's just say coincidence blew a valve-- would you think the new tank of gas was the culprit?
BUT WAIT!! It just might have been! The gas could have been of higher octane and put more more strain on the valves; you know, like going from 87 octane (OS6) to 93 octane (OS7) and showing you the engine was on the edge of compromise.
Sometimes you have to go with common sense. If everything else is ruled out, it must be the battery. And if it runs fine one moment in OS6 but immediately ***** in OS7, I'd believe my battery was suspect-- though comfy-- in OS6 but the OS7 showed its true power.
Moreover, if you had the answer-- or didn't want to believe someone's more competent advice-- why did you even call? You've already shown that you don't know much when you asked if you could go backwards after setting up the new OS as a new phone.
Additonally, if you're such the know-it-all, but yourself the $29 battery and put it in yourself. It's a piece of cake.

Centro 5 (garnet) and new iMac OS 10.5.6 Can I use my Mac as an internet connection for Palm?

I have a Palm Centro through Sprint. I have cable internet via SBC Global (ATT). I also have a wireless internet network in my home. I run a Mac with OS 10.5.6. I would like to be able to get to the internet on my palm via the bluetooth in my Mac, or I'd even like to get to the internet on my palm via the Mac by connecting to it via USB.
Obviously, I'm clueless. I've spent many hours researching this and it seems most people are trying to use their phone as a modem, but I don't think that's what I want to do since both my Mac and my Centro have bluetooth capability. I do not want to get a $25 data plan through sprint when I am only accessing while inside my home where my internet capability already is. I'm not trying to use my phone for internet access. So, I'm not looking for "Wi-Fi" per se. Mostly I want to be able to download applications directly to my phone instead of needing to download first to my mac, then install to my phone. Also, I'd like to access my googlemaps page from home.
My husband has a brand new itouch ipod which he was able to EASILY access our wireless internet through his laptop PC. Meanwhile, I'm running in circles. I can't figure out why a smart phone would prevent me from accessing my wireless internet.
Help....Please?
