I'm starting to get very frustrated with the lack of help on this issue!!!

Ok, someone please help!
I have tagged several songs off the radio from my IPod and am trying to purchase them. I have been able to purchase songs on a previous version of ITunes, but not now after upgrading to the latest version. I have tried the following,
Purchasing several songs I tagged at different times and no luck.
I went into the ITunes store and purchased one of my tagged songs from there and it added it to the playlist as a purchased song.
Then I deleted an earlier song and retagged it. It appeared and I immediately tried to purchase it, but no luck! All it does is hang there (I've left it hanging for about 10 minutes) and it won't purchase! I've posted this question like 5 times, could someone respond?

Hi,
It sounds like you've accidentally used an undocumented shortcut that changes the flow setting. (The flow setting is used to create a build up effect. This is a Photoshop feature that although Elements does not show it in the options bar can be called up using the shortcut.)
With the brush tool selected, press Shift + 0 (Shift + zero key) to set the flow back to 100%.
There's a video about this on YouTube:

Beyond frustrated with the lack of support for this phone

My title says it all... I've had this phone since sometime in August, and at the time we signed up, we were "upgraded" from the freebie phones into three of these phones, one each for myself, my wife and our daughter. These phones are slow, laggy and do not perform well, despite being powered by 1ghz processors. http://gizmodo.com/5890956/the-full-list-of-verizon-phones-getting-ice-cream-sandwich - this article dated in MARCH says ICS for the Verizon Rhyme is coming, yet 9 months later we're still on the same version, which is extremely outdated software. Verizon won't help us in upgrading to the Galaxy S3 without paying $650 per unit, and I'm not eligible for anything for a year and a half. As a new customer, I feel VERY MUCH locked into a situation I don't like and I have no options to make it any better. I can't get out of the phone making me unhappy... the promised ICS update is lost in never never land... and it's forever and a day away before I'm eligible for an upgrade that's not gonna force me to take out a 2nd mortgage.
I've read questions here about this phone and it takes 7-20 days for Verizon to even respond, which points out just how interested they are in addressing the many angry customers with this lemon.

Yeah I feel your pain! I have had a rhyme for about 1 year and have had nothing but problems. They traded the phone for me due to the problems, got a refurbished one which has proven to be no better than the one I had. I have spent hours on the phone with verizon in attempts to fix things. One time they even had to get a company person(phone manufactureer) on the line to help me. Yes this is a very poor product with many many issues. Verizon should really do something to help all us loyal verizon customers (I have been a customer since verizon was air touch) out. UGH!!!

What exactly do you mean by "crashing" and is it occuring on a specific app or under specific circumstances?

Very frustrated with the battery exchange program

I'm very frustrated with the battery exchange program. I signed up online, double checked all my information, and submitted. No where on the page did it say that a signature would be required upon delivery. I work during the day, so I'm not home to receive shipments (any package I do receive is just left in the lobby, and it's always been fine--I live in a secure building).
DHL is refusing to leave the package at the door. Apple refuses to tell DHL that it's ok to redirect the package to my place of employment. My only option, it seems, is to spend almost two hours of my time driving to the DHL location and back (the pickup location isn't even in the same county I live in).
If anyone has any better ideas, I would love to hear it.
Thanks,
Andrea

If your battery was stolen after it was delivered, I'd bet you'd really get upset. If DHL is anything like UPS, you can sign the receipt telling them to leave the package. Pretty simple.

Getting very frustrated with my Gnex...

Ok so I am running out of ideas to make this phone work for me... Currently on my 3rd gnex since i first bought it in May 2012 and this on is by far the worse. Just a quick run down of my first two 1.) worked great absolutely enjoyed all the features as it was my first 4g phone got impatient waiting for 1st jelly bean update and bricked it while trying to root rookie mistake lol... 2.) was just as happy with it as the first. Everything working great till about a month ago when the mic started to act up and no one could hear me unless i was using a headset or blue tooth. Got the update for 4.2.2 the day I was taking it to best buy geek squad to send out and that even seemed to be working great loved the camera features and was even starting to like the lock screen widgets. Had no problems with the battery drain and even seemed to be running better than ever. But since my wife was the most frustrated with not being able to hear me when we'd talk on the phone i sent it out for a replacement (happy wife = happy life). Which now brings me to today not even 24 hours after picking up my replacement gnex i am starting to regret my decision to ever buy one in the first place. This one came with 4.2.2 ready to go on it and seemed to get off to a good start with it until i tried to open the internet, Google would start to load then poof back to home screen, open internet back up load some more then kicked out (wifi or 4g/3g mind you). then it was like it was taunting me saying "oh good patients you got me to load google dare you to search.... HAHAHAHAHA nice try" poof home screen. Ok. Well internet a bust lets try the google search bar.... Oh wow i like the new features here let's try a search.... well back to hompage i go.... At this point I'm ready to give up and try later so I press the lock button and screen goes black then flashes at me for about 3mins... When I go to the main menu it is black as if i have no apps at all till i swipe and then everything appears. Oh and it is beginning to get real hot like I've seen posted here a couple of times and now I have started missing the htc thunberbolt loaner phone that best buy gave me for the 3 days with out my nexus...
Things I have tried:
-Factory reset (3 times)
-Taking Battery out and letting it sit for awhile (up to 15mins)
-Avoiding the urge to just throw it against the wall (hardest one of all)
Things I'd like to avoid in finding a solution:
-Rooting ( tried and failed at that already in the past)
-Waiting for ANOTHER replacement phone
-Throwing it against the wall (still seems like that would make me the happiest right now)
So all in all i just needed to vent a bit and am now curios as to what options I do have now. I didn't go with the verizon insurance on the phone because i went through Best Buy when i bought it originally and pay 9.99 a month for their Geek Squad protection plan but i don't want to have to send it back out since i just got it back today. Can I take it in to a verizon store and replace it right away? If so how much should that cost (in AZ)? Has anyone else been down this road with their gnex as well and have any info to share?

Is the replacement phone working flawlessly so far as of this posting cowboyjake? I couldn't help it to laugh at your posting things you have tried. I know how you feel the upgrade it messed up my phone it reboots during a phone call, screen goes blank and have to uninstall / reinstall the battery to get the phone to boot up and work. Price goes up Quality and Service goes down is the motto of all businesses now days.

I'm starting to get very frustrated...

I've even gotten to the point to where I tried to uninstall Elements (7) and reinstall it it's that bad. I've gotten several actions from coffeehouse and they have been awesome. I have been using a action that will soften the skin and it's SO NICE. And, even not as an action, I've just recently learned that with solid backgrounds, if you click on the brush and brush on the color of the background you can make it pretty well seamless. Amazing (old news to several people I know but it got me all excited lol). Ok so here's my frustrations...
I'm going to say...two days ago, my brush has decided to not work. It works, but when I even have it on opacity 100%, it doesn't come up at 100%. I have to click the spot like 10 times for it to even look like it's doing anything at all, and even then it doesn't do much.
So what am I doing wrong. It seems like it's more with the brush aspect than anything else now that I'm thinking about it. I just use the default brushes when I'm doing my normal stuff.
PLEAES PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

It sounds like you've accidentally used an undocumented shortcut that changes the flow setting. (The flow setting is used to create a build up effect. This is a Photoshop feature that although Elements does not show it in the options bar can be called up using the shortcut.)

Why are the tabs not saved when I restart Firefox? Very frustrating with the new version.

I pin a tab - or many tabs. Close Firefox, then open it the tabs are never saved. This was never the issue with the older versions of Firefox - been using it for years. I bought a new computer, loaded Firefox (19.0) and now I cannot "save" the tabs.

You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

I am very frustrated with the Edge process.

I have already received my new phone. I need to know how to send my old phone back, and have NOT seen a working or consistent answer. The box which contained the new phone did not arrive with any instructions, labels, or shipping materials.
1) read that a return shipping container/label was supposed to arrive 5-7 business days after receipt of new Edge phone. NOPE.
2) read entries from CSRs with links to where a shipping label can be printed. NOT WORKING, at least not for me.
3) read that the old phone can be taken to a Verizon Store. Possibly, but I would like official confirmation of this before I go drop it off and lose track of it.
I do not want to get charged for my old phone. Please help me get this resolved before this happens.
Can anyone give me a straight answer?
Thank you.

Thank you for responding. Let me address your questions:
1) The links to shipping labels I have seen do not go to a printable shipping label, but rather my account's "Order History". There are no entries on my Order History by which I can proceed further, if that is the next step.
2) How would I know if the return label was mailed to the correct address? I did receive the new phone, but nothing more.
3) The new phone was mailed on 05-20-2014, via 2-Day FedEx
4) I have to drive all the way to a corporate store to get a shipping label? Your company can't simply provide a link that works?
5) This question really concerns me... where it was purchased. I was told by the CSR who assisted me with the Edge upgrade that the upgrade could ONLY be done online, so that's how I did the upgrade. Are you saying this is not true?
Thank you.

Where to get a version of 7.0 Itunes, I am getting very frustrated with 7.1

Hey, I found an old version of Itunes (7.0) at this web site but I am having a hard time installing it. The installs buttons are all grayed out.
http://www.oldapps.com/
Any idea how to get by this. I am really missing my Itunes library. Do I have uninstall the 7.1 version first? How do I do that without losing my Itunes library?
I have a recent backup of only my purchases. I guess I could restore if I have to. I hope it is a good backup. Any idea how to check a backup to see if it is good?
thanks for your help. There is some great stuff on these forums.

Hi-
To reinstall when the option to install is grayed out, you will want to trash the iTunes.pkg and iTunesX.pkg files (as explained in the following link):
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301356
Your iTunes "Library", that is, the mpeg-4, mpg3, etc. files, are not affected by the reinstall.
NOTE:As with ALL valuable data, though, you should have backup files on external media or devices.
Your songs themselves will not be affected by the reinstall, but your library information such as playlists, playcounts, and ratings will be. There is a way to save those settings, but since you are downgrading, I am not sure the following will work. It does work, though for reinstalling the same version.
Go to User/Music/iTunes/ and copy the two iTunes Library files to another location or back them up onto a disk or hard drive. Then, when you reinstall iTunes, replace them where you found them. This should restore your original settings.
1-iTunes Folder: make a new folder:(folder name)
2-Move:
iTunes 3 Music Library
iTunes Music Library.xml
iTunes Music Library (2)
...to the new (folder name) folder
3-Reinstall iTunes
4- File > Import...Import: (folder name)/iTunes Music Library.xml
If you have a lot of music, it will take some time, but you will get your playlists backplaylists back.

I'm using iA Writer on my new iPad. I've opted to store doc's from this app on iCloud. Now I'm unable to access iCloud and retrieve my doc's so I can continue writing. Needless to say this is very frustrating. Is there a solution for this issue?

Please, need help. I'm using iA Writer. I opted to store doc's on iCloud and now I find I'm not able to access iCloud in order to retrieve said doc's. A solution to this dilemma would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Satya

iA Writer on iDevice:
Look at the Storage List, there should be an iCloud entry (along with iPad/iPod/iPhone, and Dropbox). Choose iCloud to get a list of documents.
To write a new file: Be sure to have iCloud chosen in Storage. Create new doc, write and click on the Storage list. File is written to iCloud.
iA Wrtier on Mac:
Write file and save locally, then choose: File>iCloud>Move to iCloud.
To read a file: File>iCloud>[choose file name]
I should add that files read by iA Writer must be files created by iA Writer, either on same device/computer or another.
-- OR --
I may have misunderstood your post. If my ipad is not connected to the internet, I can still open a file I had saved on iCloud (only this is the "local" copy of it). When I'm done, it's saved locally but when I turn on wifi and access the file again and then press the Storage List icon, the file is saved to iCloud. Are you saying that you can't open a local copy when not connected to wifi?

Very disappointed with the lack of Customer service

I have been a verizon wireless customer for 15+ years, and have never been more disappointed. Does anyone else notice that it seems like you are dealing with 2 different companies - and they don't play well together? I 'chatted' oniline with a VZW rep - and was advised that if I upgraded my husband to a smartphone - our monthly bill would go down 6.00. I ordered the phone - she told me that I could either wait until I activate to change my plan - or call customer service to do so. I called. Quote #2 - totally different - going up 22.00. I advised we did not want to do that - our bill is already over 200 per month. Chatted the next day - quote #3 - up 30.00. The kicker was when we went to the store tonight. The gentleman basically said if we deal with online - don't bother them. Don't they both work for VZW? His customer service was a little more than lacking. I am considering switching to another carrier - even though I have 3 other phones that are under contract. I don't want to worry every time I need customer service - which one of them will help. Anyone suggest another carrier??

I totally agree -- HORRIBLE customer service experiences recently. What happened?
I have a been a VZW customer for years and have always appreciated the excellent service. Recently, I called to add my ipad to my shared data plan and waited 30 minutes with no resolution (see image below). After refusing to wait longer, I the agent offered to call me back with instructions after the change had been made. He did call back, which I appreciate, however 30 minutes to add additional services is unacceptable.
I've also tried reaching customer service several times this week for account questions and immediately receive the message "we are experiencing heavier than normal call volumes and wait times". After waiting 5-10 minutes each time I have given up.
VZW had better get their act together. If I wanted bad service I'd switch to Sprint and save at least 25% each month.

Frustrated with the lack of Support and Attention to the Thunderbolt

I was under the impression when I upgraded to the TB, that it was/is the "Flagship" for 4g Android phones (at least it was back in March). Unfortunately, that's not the case and I should of kept my Droid X a little longer.
Although the Droid X is not 4g, the device now has Gingerbread and seems to be getting a lot more attention from Verizon, then the TB..
I marked this down as lessons learned.

The DX is a great device even by todays standards. Anything that is as solid as the DX that has the latest OS is a keeper in my book. I to did the exact same thing and " upgraded " to the Thunderbolt but quickly regretted that choice. I got the TB the day it was available and figured I'd deal with some issues. I even went as far as Emailing HTC and calling VZW on a regular basis whenever I had an issue they might want to be made aware of but that got me no where. Then the update came out and that seem to add even more issues. So I threw in the towel and got the Droid Charge as a replacement for the Thunderbolt. I don't email HTC I have called VZW a couple times and that's it. Sure it's a Samsung and it might never get an OS update but for now it's a actual upgrade as apposed to the Thunderbolt.

I can't burn purchased tunes on a disc because of the infamous "error 4310". Why are loyal customers copntinually frustrated with the lack of or nonexistent answer to our dilemma? ITunes, why offer "support" if you are unwilling to give it?

I cannot burn purchased tunes on a blank disc because of the infamous "error 4310". Countless ITunes customers are frustrated that there are no "free" answers for this dilemma. Unfortunately, the "support" that is so highly promoted and encouraged is merely community members venting their frustrations.
ITuines this is not at all professional on your part.

Hi to everyone that replied and many thanks for your input.
I have bought well known and established artists CD's containing their music, track lists and artwork files from branded retailers. When I have loaded them into iTunes, it automatically loaded the artwork files FROM the CD I bought, so all that nonsense about audio CD's having nothing but audio isn't accurate. No, they were not DVD's either. I will endeavor to find a software package that CAN do what I need as an independent artist. iTunes just doesn't cut the mustard for me, even though it's free. I do know about issues with copyright and artists protection, but there should be something that can be done or made in iTunes, so it doesn't infringe copyright of artists, but can be used by artists like myself without the software being abused by freeloaders. Oh well, maybe when I'm too old for this malarkey...

I'm starting to get very frustrated with the lack of help on this issue!!!
