I tried to call apple but my area code wasn't available

I forgot my security answers, so I wanted to call apple. I looked through the list of countries of where I could call but my country was not there(South Africa) so I decided that I would call the UK. I clicked call now and I had to type in my phone number but my area code was not available, what should I do?

  • Support problem. The adviser tried to diagnose the failure of an application called JOTNOT PRO to update. He said he'd phone back at 8pm. I pick up his call at 8pm. Electronic voice: thank you for calling apple. We are now closed" So now I have 2 problems

    Support problem. The adviser tried to diagnose the failure of an application called JOTNOT PRO to update. He said he'd phone back at 8pm. I pick up his call at 8pm. Electronic voice: thank you for calling apple. We are now closed" So now I have 2 problems: the adviser had got me to reset so bye bye wifi passwords and settings. And then when he phones back as we agreed he's not actually on the phone, it's just a voice saying Apple Support is now closed! What on earth is going on at apple support I wonder.
    Anyway, the original problem: an application called JotNot Pro fails to update. The error message says something like "you cannot update this cos either you bought it with a different Apple ID or somebody else bought it."
    Neither applies. Can anybody help?
    PS. This is my first approach to the support community so please bear with me!

    You might have better luck contacting the app's support or developers.

  • I forgot my security password and didn't set up a rescue email address. I tried calling apple but they tried charging me to reset the questions. Is there an easier and cheaper way to reset them?

    Probably not; if you want, you can try using this form, but will likely be told to phone instead.

    I'm sorry to learn that you are not able to make/receive calls chelseabee! (ticket number removed) results indicate that there is no issues with the network or account provisioning. Since you have already done a hard reset http://vz.to/1gBkSJc (as per your post), I recommend exploring replacement options. If your phone is within the one year manufacturers' warranty we can provide a Certified Like New replacement http://vz.to/uyYF0o as long as no physical/liquid damage exist. If your phone has sustained physical/water damage and you have insurance, you can submit a claim to the insurance company online at this link http://bit.ly/07CrqPK

    I think the easiest way to do this is to have the EyeTV app running in one user account and sent via HDMI to the TV, and use a separate user account for Screen Sharing. Both logins can be active at the same time and with Lion you can connect via screen sharing to which ever login you need.
    With regards to the Mac video resolution changing, when it is not the current input on your AV receiver. This is 'normal', if the Mac sees no signal it drops down the a lower level. What you need is to buy a HDMI Detective Plus which tricks the Mac in to always seeing a signal and hence it will not drop down the resolution. See http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=8005
    The Mac mini does have an IR receiver. This can be used with the EyeTV app, iTunes, and similar. Yes I believe EyeTV would run for prolonged periods quite happily, it is has been around for a long time and had most of the rough edges polished off. However one issue you will have to deal with is that it does not automatically update its program guide data. For this you might have to write or modify an AppleScript. Elgato support or their user forums will be a lot of help.
    You can set EyeTV to convert recordings to an iTunes (Apple TV) compatible format and then delete them from EyeTV.
    The HDMI Detective should solve your handshaking problems.

  • Permanently blocking a caller regardless of the "area code"

    Hello.  I can't seem to find anything similar to this in the archives.  There is a pest caller calling me that has a number very similar to my own, only the last 2 digits are different, the rest looks like my phone number.  Originally they started calling me with the area code the same as mine, but I was able to block them and get rid of them for a while but they just start up again with a different area code.  Same phone number though.  Today they called about 6 times within an hour and while I don't answer it, they just try again  within a few minutes.  Is there a way to block these annoying calls by phone number regardless of the area code the call looks like it is coming from?  Obviously they are spoofing the number.  I'm only able to block 10 phone numbers through the support page, and my phone doesn't have a blocking feature.
    Thank you.
    Solved!

    Thanks about nomorobo.com.  I use that, and it blocks (with a single ring) many robocallers, but not this one.  The latest area code is 406 and looking that up it appears to be a cell phone caller.  By the way, I work as a contractor for the FTC and the Do Not Call list, so I try to report every robocaller and telemarketer and urge others to do the same.  It's just this pesky one with a phone number almost the same as mine that keeps changing only the area code to get past my blocks.  I'm going to report this one, too, again.  Maybe the FTC is getting a lot of these and will look into them, but I know it isn't an overnight solution for them to investigate, but I know for a fact that they do.
    Thanks for the reply!

  • I keep getting calls from non existing area codes and phone numbers.  They are never the same number twice.  How do I stop this?

    About a week ago I started getting phone calls on my cell phone from numbers that do not exist, including the area codes.  I can not report these to the Do Not Call list because the area code is non existent.  I'm getting these calls all the time now and never from the same number twice so there's no point in blocking them.  If I answer I may or may not get a person who has an accent from India so heavy that I can't understand what they are saying.  This is getting to the point where I just want to cry I'm so frustrated.  Anyone else having this issue or does anyone know how to stop it?
    Thank you

    I'm sorry that you are having all these troubles. I have sent you a private message.

  • Help! I can't update itunes because I deleted quicktime then tried to reinstall quicktime but there are components that won't be uninstalled

    Ok. So a while ago quicktime got deleted (but only partially) which won't allow me to reinstall it to fix it. The error with quicktime affected my itunes which I can no longer open. I tried to reinstall everything but I get an error because 1) the older version of bonjour cannot be removed and 2) an older version of quicktime cannot be removed which then says that itunes can not be installed without quick time. But I also cannot delete everything to reinstall. Because when I try to delete either Bonjour or quicktime I get this message: the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable!
    I have performed a search on my hard drive to find all quicktime files to try to delete but it won't let me delete the last three files and gives me this message when I attempt to delete: Cannot delete file. Cannot read from the source file or disk. And the other two only allow me the option to open containing folder, copy or extract....
    I also made changes on the registry according to someone else' instructions to see if that would solve the problem, restarted the computer but that didn't help either.
    Nothing has allowed me to reinstall itunes back onto my computer and without itunes, I can not sync my iphone and get updated! I am using Windows XP by the way
    This is driving me crazy!
    Thanks for any help in advance,
    Tiffany

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour and QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • After doing a software update for iPhoto, some of the photos in my library appear distorted and stretched. I have tried repairing the library but they are still distorted. Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?

    After doing a software update for iPhoto, some of the photos in my library appear distorted and stretched. I have tried repairing the library, rebuliding and repairing the thumbnails but they are still distorted. Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?

    What upgrade did you apply?  As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

  • I need to use iMovie, but it says that my Quick Time needs to be updated.. but there are no new updates available

    i need to use imovie for a project and i tried to open it but it says i need version 7.6.0 or later, so i went to software updates and there are no updates for my computer.
    Any suggestions on what to do?!
    thanks,
    lauren

    It depends on what iPhone you have.
    If it's an iPhone 4S or earlier, click here.
    If it's an iPhone 5, you need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, and that requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB RAM.

  • Why do you have to dial the area code if you are calling from the same area code

    I am considering switching over to Verizon Digital Voice, I already have Verizon phone service as part of my quad package.  I understand that there are some more features, as well as a reduction of a certain tax resulting in apporx $8 savings per month.  The only drawback, as far as my wife is concerned, is that we would be required to dial the area code even if we are calling next door.  I am curious as to why that is.  I live on Long Island, New York.  Any insight would be helpful.  I have used the speed dial argument, but I am getting resitance.  Thanks in advance.  Marv

    Just switched from Vonage and they had a home area code feature that allowed same area code calls, so that whenever you dialed a 7 digit phone # it went through as a local area call.  Don't understand why my new Verizon service can't do that; just makes me think I haven't figured it out yet. 

  • I receive an error message whenever I text recently entered contacts. It says the number is invalid. I have tried entering the number with the area code and without the area code.

    I receive an error message whenever I try to send text messages to new contacts. It says the number is invalid and to enter a 10 digit number. I have tried entering the phone number with the area code and without the area code. Any ideas?

    Same problem here. I've deleted the contact and had them text me, but when I try to text them back I get the same invalid number message! So frustrating! Please help!
