Huawei E1752 mobile broadband. I don't know what to do ...

Hello
I have a HuaWei E1752 that I'm trying to configure to use when I'm away from home. I'm not interested in using NetworkManager as I'm using a basic wpa_supplicant daemon in the background setup for my normal wireless networking. I've searched around quite a bit including listening to a man on youtube talking hungarian and using NetworkManager in Debian. I want to use the old fashioned programs like pppd, cu and wvdial
Currently, I do not have any ttyUSB* entries in /dev. I've tried running usb_modeswitch with the appliable addresses but it don't have any further affect. I've even tried installing (as root(!)) this lame chinese java program that is avalable on the net for this modem, and even that program complains about not being able to recognize any usable modems.
What am I to do?

Some lsusb info also:

Huawei E173 mobile broadband modem install - lost access to Internet

A few days ago I purchased the Huawei E173 mobile broadband USB modem ("Internet Stick") with SIMcard from Tchibo; they use the 3G+ network (HSPA/UMTS) from O2 in Germany. I installed the modem with its "Mobile Partner" GUI in WinXP/SP3 on my Asus EeePC 1001R netbook and in WinXP/SP3 on a Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop and also installed the modem in Arch on the Dell laptop.
For the Arch install I followed the section "Easy Install using Network Manager" in the Archwiki "Huawei E220"; that was all that was needed, using NetworkManager, modemmanager and the Gnome network-manager-applet (nm-applet).
All went well: I successively and successfully used the modem and got on the net in WinXP on the netbook, then on WinXP on the laptop and finally in Arch on the laptop. Then I tried to use it again in WinXP on the Asus netbook: no access to the Internet. Tried it again in Arch: no access. Tried it again in WinXP on the Dell: no access.
The symptoms were the same in all three cases: when the stick was inserted, the OS recognized it, it asked for and accepted the SIMcard PIN#, established a link with the ISP access point - with excellent signal strength -, I was given an IP address in the 10.xx.xx.xx range, and according to the stick's LED, the connection alternated between being on an UMTS and HSPA net. But no Internet access, neither in Firefox nor Chromium nor Opera, with and without firewalls or system proxies! I was able to ping my own IP address but not the IP addresses of the standard gateway, DHCP server, and DNS servers, and some of these addresses were peculiar (I can provide more info on that). And no luck pinging Google or Amazon, either with their hostnames or IP addresses.
A support call to Tchibo confirmed that there was no O2 net service outage in my area, that signal coverage ought to be excellent in my area, incl. for an HSPA connection, that my new account was active and in good order, there was no block on it and there was plenty of high-speed data capacity left in it.
So I exchanged the stick. So far I've installed the new stick/SIMcard only in WinXP on the Asus netbook, with new cellphone # and PIN. And everything is fine again; I'm back on the internet.
I don't want to be confined to browsing in Windows; Arch is where I do all my work and that's where I want to access the Internet as well. But for nothing in the world do I want to go again through the ordeal of being completely locked out of the Internet and trying to troubleshoot this problem without access to it. But I'm leery of using the new stick in Arch again and again experiencing the same lockout; I need to know what the cause of this problem was.
I see several possibilities:
1. Hardware failure of the first Huawei stick.
2. Some network config setting might have gotten corrupted in going through two Windows and then the Linux install.
3. Some account or network settings on the ISP side might have gotten corrupted.
Re 1: Seems highly unlikely to me; the stick I returned worked flawlessly for 24 hrs. and is probably still perfectly all right.
Re 2: Are such config settings stored on the SIM chip or elsewhere in the data storage section of the stick, so that they an incompatible setting might be carried over from one OS or install to another?
Re 3: Tchibo already seem to have gotten confused over the uses of the stick in my two Windows installs. When I installed it in WinXP on the Dell (after having installed it in WinXP on the Asus netbook), the data volume counter was reset, and they again started counting KB's from zero in the Dell WinXP install, but kept track of usage from the Asus install separately, in spite of the fact that there was only one account with them, and account identifiers such as cellphone # and SIMcard PIN# were identical in the two cases. Further, they don't officially support Linux; perhaps their software got totally confused by the usage coming from NetManager in Linux. But one would think that this stick would be completely portable from machine to machine and from OS to OS, just like a USB WLAN adapter.
Any thoughts about the cause of these problems, whether they might reoccur if I use the new stick in Arch, and how I can get around them?

Thanks for the tip. I'm very leery though of trying to use the new stick in Linux until I know exactly what caused the problem before because with the first stick it was after I'd used it in Linux (just once) that I lost internet connectivity in all three systems. If that happens again, I'd be in the same hole as before: trying to troubleshoot a potentially complicated networking problem without access to the Internet. Short of an expensive call to customer support of doubtful outcome that could cost me the price of the stick (not toll-free; costs 0.42 EUR/min), the only way out then may be to return the stick again and again set up a new account. I doubt, they will go along with that.
Setting up the stick in Arch was actually the easiest thing. After I'd installed networkmanager, modemmanager, nm-applet and some other bits (such as mobile-broadband-provider-info), it was all plug-and-play, and with these bits of software Arch automatically set up a mobile broadband connection to the ISP's server and I had an excellent Internet connection. Only after I went back into WinXP, did I lose all Internet connectivity in all three systems, even though I still got a good link to the AP (persistent misconfiguration of GW, route, subnet mask, etc?).

I've been trying to install Itunes.When I do everything goes right.Except one thing.It says that Apple Mobile Support can't Install cause some privileges. I don't know what to do.I recently bought my Iphone 4s and I can't do nothing without installing it.

Every time I try to install Itunes to sync my Iphone. A pop up message appears saying that "Apple Mobile Support cant't download ( please check to see if you have enough privileges to run this program) I don't know what to do someone help me !!!!

Try this it worked for me Pat Willener gave it to me off the site :
I have not read all you wrote, so I may have missed some points. As I understand it, you installed FP 10 on IE7, but it won't play any Flash content?
Try this
download the FP uninstaller from http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157
close all browser windows, then run the uninstaller
download the offline ActivX installer for Internet Explorer from http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
close all browser windows, then run the installer

Trying to re-install iTunes and the message "Apple mobile device failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services." But I don't know what to do? Please can someone help, I'm not the most technologically advanced person.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Orange Huawei E160E Mobile Broadband Dongle - NOT WORKING NOW!

Well as you can see from the title - i've just upgraded to Snow Leopard over the weekend - and love the 16GB of harddrive space I got back, however I came you use my Orange Huawei E160E Mobile Broadband USB Modem 'Dongle' and it doesn't work.
25 mins on the phone to Orange Tech Support, and they tell me 'sorry we can't do anymore' & 'thats what you get for being on the cutting edge of technology'!!!
Apple Care told me to install Rosetta - and still NO good!
Any ideas?

Hi
Thanks for the advice above. Initially cleaned off original app
I removed the software application from Mac HD/Applications/Orange Mobile Partner
The kernel extension located at Mac HD/System/Library/Extensions/HuaweiDataCardDriver.kext
The modem script located at Mac HD/Library/Modem Scripts/HUAWEI Mobile Connect – 3G Modem
Then dragged the Orange MobilePartner file to the HD, selected 'Show Package Contents' and followed the advice above opening the .mpkg.
Was about to try and return the dongle, but now after several tests, am sure it works

Question about items I found for my iBook that I don't know what to do with

As stated above, I have an iBook that I've had for several years and I cannot use it anymore to go online as routers aren't accepted in my household. I recently found a plastic bag with a new USB cable, a phone line cable and a new battery Pegatron Model:PB013 with my computer things and I don't know what it is for since I never had occasion to use it. Can anyone tell me what to do with these things? I do know that they came with the iBook but at the time we bought it, we were never interested in what it is for. If anyone can tell me the use for it, I would appreciate it and if there really isn't a use for these items, I will just throw them away. I would love to be able to go online with my iBook but spouse doesn't believe in routers, says then others can get into your info even though I know that isn't true. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello and welcome to the support community.
First of all, routers are not accepted in your household? So how do you get online?
In order to use broadband Internet you need a router.
You iBook would have been supplied with the following items when it was new.
1. Power Adapter
2. Power Cord
2. Modem Lead (While telephone lead used for dial-up Internet via a phone line)
3. VGA adapter to allow an external screen to be used.
No USB lead were supplied and the only battery supplied with your iBook would be that attached to the bottom of the iBook. (White)
A USB lead could have been supplied with other devices like printers, scanners, cameras or phones.
There are four ways you can get online with your iBook G4
1. Connection via Ethernet to a router.
3. Wireless via installed Airport Card to a wireless router
4. Dial-up modem (What the white phone lead is for)
6. USB 3G dongle (Or connection using a cell/mobile phone that's compatible)
I hope this helps

N96: Stop during Restarting- I don't know what wil...

My mobile: N96 (SW 30.033, RM-247, Nokia China,Purchased before 15 month, Riyadh Saudi Arabia)
before two days I switch off my mobile and restart it but the white screen come then nokia screen coming but the phone stop and after one minute it restart itself again and same things then restart, I try to remove the battery and wait half hour and start the phone but same problem.
So after many trials I make 4-key phone memory format so the phone restart and I was too much happy but I lost the contacts as it is stored in the phone memory in addition to all my exchange email and nokia email, so I was having back up so I connect it to PC Suit and I restore the contacts from my nokia back but after finishing it was asking for restart and the crises happened again and same previous, stopping at nokia screen then restart restart restart.
So again I make phone memory and I using synchronization between my mobile and outlook to return my contacts and I don't know what will happened if I restart my phone.
I don't know what to do as my phone warranty is one year and nokia care will not accept to check it and I don't think that there is qualified shop can repair such this type of problems.
IM too much disappointed from nokia and I feel that these type of mobiles designed to work for one year only and if you ask help from nokia care after one year they will not accept.
So any person face same problem and he know how to solve it

Try this: format the phone like you'd done before. While restoring the backup, skip the user files and settings. Restore only contacts and messages.
Most often it's the settings that play spoilsport.

lots of people seem to be havgin a problem sending email from iCloud webmail.
does your email address have uppercase characters in it?
if so, try creating an alias in lowercase (go to preferences in iCloud webmail and select 'accounts') and see if email sends okay from that

These are user to user forums. You ARE NOT addressing Apple by posting here.
Also, why are you YELLING at us?? Stop using ALL CAPS.
What steps have you done to try and fix the problem?

I wrote a 27 chap. book on my iMac from ****. B4 I was completely finished, I spent hundreds of hours on-line and in store, and final answer after atty was involved was 1) we've never seen it b4 2) we don't know what it is 3) it's not ur harddrive, softw

finished, at about 26 chaps, 1) hard-drive went out, 2) visited site & then got "ur virus is infected buy us now" pop-ups (only time in 3 year. of using a mac, and 3) (forget what but an issue. Spent hours on-line, and at store. And finally w/an attorney when I kept being told it was user error. (I"m getting to book isssue I promise) During this time, Harddrive was wiped, external b-up replaced, something about "separated" etc. etc. and even computer replaced w/same issues afterward. Final vrdict 1 yr. later: 1_ we've never seen it 2_ we don't know what it is--not a virus, not harddrive malfunciton, not software issue 3_ we don't know how to fix it. Live w/it w/multiple errors and oddities every time you try to type or start all over. Got an attorney, and took it in again, and miractulously, "he" fixed it. However, in meantime, I wrote many duplicate chapts. when I couldn't find missing, or edited, some, etc.
Everything was writen in Pages, chapt. by chapt. Now I have a 27 chap. book(my first) in pieces--w/many duplicate or slightlychanged chapters all over the computer. I'm trying to reconstruct. Some chaps. I just can't find, some are garbled, some do strange things like left justifying and changing to single space (and can't change back to double, just have to erase and start over, on those old documents. Needless to say I have felt so defeated it's been really hard to get back to the almost finished book for last re-write.
The Questions: 1)I'm trying to find the chapters, and as I find and edit them I need to know how to make this massive achievement work. Should I continue w/chapter by chapt until all are finished? Or start putting them into single document as they are finished? How do I find anything? If I put finished in PDF to send to publisher, even tho it's my PDF, I can't go back and edit my own, except in a duplicate entire document, is that correct?
I cant' find the string to start unraveling this mess. I do have hardcopies made and presented to writing group so need to edit those chapters.
I'm used to paper typewritten copies of everything for manipulation, and I know things now I should have done on the Mac but didn't when I started. (I"m also having trouble getting a Table of Contents to work, which is making it doubly hard to find anything.)
To sum it up, I think, How do I write a book, with chapters (no technical sstuff, only a few footnotes & I may group them at the back of the book.) as far as manipulating documetns/folders, have ready for export, etc. Probably too long a question so go ahead and chew me out. (And I havent' used any other document except Text Edit in years.) I am overwhelmed an book is wasting away.

If you are wondering why you are not getting any responses, it is because you have vented a complaint without any details that make any sense or give anyone something to work on.
If you want help, I suggest actually detailing what has happened, with versions of software etc. Anything that would let us assist.
As a start I am guessing that you have not really got the hang of "How it all works". Firstly download the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf from under the Help menu. Read that and view the Video Tutorials in the same place. A good addition would be the iWork 09 Missing manual book and something to help you learn how to use your Mac.
If there are specific tasks you need help with:

Those are not viruses. You have probably installed some malware:
The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:
          Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
          OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
          About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using Dr.Web Light from the App Store. It's free, and since it's from the App Store, it won't destabilize the system. If you prefer one of the better known commercial products, then Thomas recommends using Sophos.(Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.) If you already use Sophos, then be aware of this if you are using Mavericks: OS X Mavericks- Sophos Anti-Virus on-access scanner versions 8.0 - 9.1 may cause unexpected restarts
From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
The facts are:
1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
     is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
     the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
     techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
    your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
    protection against malware.
5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
    from which they purport to protect you.
6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
    you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

I turned of iMessage and now I want it back on and it's not working, I have changed my password and now I don't know what to do. Is there something obvious I am doing wrong?

I turned of iMessage and now I want it back on and it's not working, I have changed my password and now I don't know what to do. Is there something obvious I am doing wrong? I have done this on both of my iPads and it hasn't let me go back on to iMessage on either of them.
