Imessage problem (tried usual fixes)

Hey so I just set up my iphone 4 and had signed in to imessage with my number and apple id and it just won't let me send imessages. I get the not delivered message. I've tried restarting the phone and imessage it's self multiple times. I've also tried signing in and out of my apple ID. I've reset my wifi and 3g tried with each turned on independantly and still no luck. I even tried using just the phone number and just the apple ID to send messages and still nothing as well as restarting the network settings. I would really appreciate it if anyone had any other ideas. I've yet to be able to send a message since I've set it up.

It's registered to the same apple ID as my other devices (same e-mail and it doesnt get stuck activating
or anything) and the number is the new one from the sim currently in the phone. It even shows the imessage option to contacts who have imessenger it just won't deliver once sent.
I left it off over night and still the same. Really no idea. I even tried logging out of from my apple ID and sending an imessage to my appleID e-mail address from my number and the same thing happens.
There must be a reason indeed especially since as mentioned above it's giving me the option to send imessages to the people who have it so it must have some connection to them.

Vista problems, tried usual fixes, please help.

I have Windows Vista with a 1st gen shuffle, 60GB photo and 80GB video. The shuffle and photo work flawlessly with Vista. The video does not finish syncing correctly. The songs all download, but iTunes crashes while finsihing the sync. I then have to completely restart to because iTunes can not be killed. Upon reconnecting the iPod, the status bar shows 45GB of "Other" , actually my songs, but starts a whole new sync. After the crash, only the first few songs, in alphabetically order by artist, are available on the iPod, although it reports 45GB used. Its like it fails while syncing the library file.
Things I have tried already. The usual uninstall/reinstall, turning off Windows UAC, turning UAC on and running in admin mode, etc. I have the lastest version of iTunes, and have installed the 5/22 iPod windows update. I also have all other recommended windows updates. I have tried turning of syncing of photos and videos, and have just music selected at this point.
If anyone has any idea of something I am missing, please help. I guess this weekend I might have to spend time on the phone with tech support if noone has any idea here. Why has it taken 7+ months to get this working in Vista?
Thank you.

No body has any ideas?
Thanks.

[SOLVED] problems trying to fix wrong UUID!

hello all,
im trying to fix a boot error (no such device: uuid...) using a solution from this thread https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=157195. i've booted to livecd but cant get past

it rebooted to the GNU GRUB VERSION 2.0 like it should, but now I'm getting the emergency mode prompt.
If I understand you correctly, you deleted your /boot partition. That was probably a bad move. Now you may have grub's configuration in /boot, but you don't have a kernel image. Without the linux kernel also present in /boot, grub has nothing to do, hence the emergency prompt.
Reinstall the linux package, then re-install grub. Frankly, since you're going to the trouble anyways, you should just recreate your separate partition for your boot loader.
So, from the livecd:
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt # (Check with fdisk -l)
rm -rf /mnt/boot/* # (You want /boot to be a mount point for a partition, so it should not contain any files)
mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot # (this should be the boot partition)
pacstrap /mnt base # (This wil reinstall the kernel, as well as make sure the rest of the system is working and up to date)
arch-chroot /mnt pacman -S grub-bios # (Reinstall GRUB)
Then the rest is exactly as you already said:
grub-install /dev/sda
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
Better safe than sorry, just re-do the install process to make sure you have a working boot partition, and that the bootloader has a kernel to load. I'm assuming the rest of your system is already nice and configured properly, so after this goes off without a hitch, you can just reboot.
EDIT: Don't assume that the numbers on your disk match the ones in the example. Use fdisk, make sure you mount the right partitions to the right places.

Corrupted, tried usual fixes but get stuck

Okay, so last night I did my usual thing: plugged the Nano into the computer to give it an update, refresh my podcasts, etc. A message comes up saying my iPod could not be identified and needed to be unplugged then plugged in again. So, I do. Now it tells me the iPod is corrupted and needs to be recovered. So, it starts the "preparing iPod for recovery" thing. The little green bar moves to almost the end, then disappears. A message comes up saying "iTunes needs to prepare your iPod for recovery. Please leave your iPod connected.
Except that it never had been disconnected.
Still, I try again.
And again.
And again. This time using a newer cable.
Same thing.
So, it try the usuals, toggle Hold, Menu+centre button. Now I get a "Use iTunes to Restore" screen. So, I plug it in again and hit "restore" when it asks me to. Now it downloads an update and supposedly applies it, then tells me that the iPod will appear on my screen when it's ready.
Except it doesn't.
Green bar comes up telling me it's preparing iPod for recovery again.
And we get stuck in the same loop as before. "...Please leave your iPod connected."
Left it on overnight, charged it this morning, same deal.
So...any other ideas? Or is it time to send it in?

Well, that's weird.
Never got around to reformatting, because on a hunch I decided to try uninstalling iTunes before I did, then just plain starting fresh.
Once I'd restarted my computer (I've tried this multiple times since the problem started, so I doubt it was the restart itself) after uninstalling iTunes, I held menu+centre button again before connecting it to my computer, because everytime I've tried to connect without doing this first (since the problem started) has resulted in...well, nothing. This time, I plugged it in, and suddenly it showed me the select language screen, like nothing had ever happened except a reset to factory settings.
All I can say is "***??"
But at least I have my iPod back...for now (+eyes it suspiciously+)
So, now I'll try dowloading iTunes again. Hopefully it all still works after that.

Encoding Problems- tried all fixes, still get -34506 and multiplexing error

I am having a lot of difficulty trying to burn a short (27-min) DVD. I have found lots of useful information and tips in this forum, but still am having no luck. Here are the specifics:
Movie details:
- 103 slides from iPhoto
- ~10 video clips from DV camcorder (12-bit sound, unfortunately, see below)
- ~5 video clips from digital camera (.AVI format)
- lots of transitions
- additional music track from iTunes
- no chapter markers
After working thru various problems and fixes from the forum with no joy (including deleting plist, clearing caches, deleting chapter markers, making sure video extends beyond audio track at end, and resetting computer) here is what I did most recently:
- exported sound from iMovie (AIFF), imported it into iTunes, then saved it as a 16-bit, 48kHz AIFF file (to resolve the 12-bit audio issue)
- pulled new AIFF sound file back into iMovie
- exported new full quality DV file from iMovie, using default settings
- imported DV movie into iDVD, added a theme ("Fun")
- saved as a disk image
Any ideas or additional tricks I could try? I thought that the DV export would resolve the multiplexing issue, and the sound issue would be resolved by the new AIFF file.
Help!

Sue,
Thanks for the tip... I looked at the linked page and the only additional item that I checked as a result was whether there were any 3rd-party QT plug-ins (I have none...)
However, I DID get the file to finally save as a disk image!!! I converted my video in iMovie to a DV stream (but omitted the audio). I then started a new iMovie project, loaded the video-only DV stream file, and separately loaded the audio-only AIFF file I had previously made. The first time I tried to burn this new project I had the same errors appear. Then I switched the quality to "Best performance", and it worked just fine - no errors.
I didn't see anyone else in the forums suggest that the quality setting (Best Quality) might be responsible for the multiplexing error. But that seems to have been the case for me. I wonder if those folks who got their problem fixed by trashing the plist was due to reverting to the default quality setting (Best Performance). And BTW, some additional searching on the forums seems to indicate that for short (<60 min) DVDs, the "Best Performance" setting is more-or-less the same quality. The quality of the DVD I burned certainly seems OK!

Problem trying to fix on @REMOVE

Hi all,I have a calc script I am using to clear data prior to a data load. I want to clear all data for every member of an accounts dimension except for a select few.My fix statement looks like this:FIX(@REMOVE(@RELATIVE("A199999",0),@RELATIVE(Variables,0)))/..../END FIXI do not reveive an error until I run this script. The message I get is 'Invalid Syntax FIX(@REMOVE '.Has anyone seen this or had this problem before?Thanks,Rob

Yes - the first version of Essbase to introduce remove did NOT allow it to be used in a calc script - only in a member formula. I believe the version was 6.0 - in one of the subsequent versions (I don't remember if it was 6.1 or 6.2) this issue we remedied.Regards,Jade-------------------------------Jade ColeSenior Business Intelligence ConsultantClarity [email protected]

Update to 6.01 has resulted in extreme slow down when I right click for context menus? Tried usual fixes (new profile, cleaned cache).

After updating to latest version for Osx, I noticed that when right clicking for context menus, enormous lag occurs. It has made it almost impossible to be productive. Any ideas?

Thanks for your response and sorry for the delay in my rep[ly.
Today I tested the Linux-64 version (Firefox 33) from the link you suggested. There weren't any install instructions or a README, but based on the file-system layout I guess it just needs to be extracted. I downloaded and extracted to my Downloads directory and ran the executable via command-line as my user (not root).
Firefox popped up right away, but it was not usable for at least 30s. It asked to import from Chrome which I did (no errors). Every click on the top bar (address bar search, buttons to the right of search, bookmarks toolbar) resulted in a dimming un-dimming sequence of @7s, after which nothing (couldn't focus in the address bar, occasionally the bookmark menu would appear, but was not functional). Basically, it's un-usable.
As I mentioned in an earlier reply, I am having similar problems with Komodo which is apparently also Mozilla based.
Are there any logs I could tail and post that might help track this down?
Not sure what to do at this point.

IPhone to Android iMessage problem - tried everything

Hello there,
I just purchased a Galaxy S4 and am switching from my iPhone 4. I've read dozens of discussions and articles about disabling iMessage so iPhone users can text me, but nothing seems to work. Here is an overview of what I've done:
Turned iMessage on my phone off.
Deselected my phone number from OSX messages app.
Went to supportprofile.apple.com. Never registered my iPhone so there was no device to remove. Went to phone numbers and removed my number.
Went into iTunes, went to view account. Went to manage devices on iCloud and removed iPhone.
Changed my password at supportprofile.apple.com. Didn't sign into messages on OSX or iMessage on iPhone.
Completely wiped and restored iPhone to factory settings.
And yet, when my brother sends me a text from his iPhone, it goes to iMessage. Not a single one of my deivces is signed in on iMessage and my iPhone is currently sitting unactivated without a SIM card.
Anyone have any ideas?

Contact Apple https://expresslane.apple.com/Issues.action

I am having the iMessage problem following the latest update but am unable to fix it following suggestions on here so far. Anybody have a different suggestion? My phone & iPad are fine but my husbands phone is the one with the issue. I tried backing it up to my computer but for some reason it won't do that either.

Have a look at this it might help

I just erased all my contacts on accident while trying to fix an ical syncing problem. Please help!

Hello There,
I have NO idea what just happened. I am trying to stay calm here. Please help.
I have been trying to fix the fact that my iphone calendar isn't sending info to my ical on my MacBook Pro. I followed some instructions I found in a forum and then unplugged my phone haphazardly by not ejecting it from iTunes... I just pulled it off the cord and all my contacts erased in a blink of an eye. Here's the instructions I followed. Please tell me how I can get them back! Can I call AT&T? BTW... the instructions didn't fix the ical problem either.
(These are the instructions I tried from http://iphonewriter.blogspot.com/2008/05/how-to-fixing-ical-iphone-sync-issues.h tml) I added my own sidenote in Bold.
Here's the down and dirty fix:
Open iCal and backup or export your entries. Make a note of the fie name and location, you're going to need them in a minute. Once your backup/export is completed, close the iCal application.
Open Finder and remove everything inside the "Username/Library/Calendars" folder. For instance, if your username is "Joe", then move everything inside the "Joe/Library/Calendars" folder.
Open the iSync application. It's located in the "/Applications/" folder. Once iSync is opened, go into the iSync Preferences (iSync -> Preferences) and push/click the "Reset Sync History" button. Then, close the iSync application.
Re-Open the iCal application and Import (File -> Import) a new calendar. When prompted, use your notes from Step #1 to select the file your created earlier. Once completed, close the iCal application (you should have all of your calendar entries back.)
***When I re-opened ical nothing was gone but I followed the following steps anyways.***
     5. Open the iTunes application and connect your Apple iPhone to the computer.
     6. Within the Advanced section of the Info tab for the Apple iPhone, check the box the overwrites/replaces the Calendar data on the Apple iPhone.
     7. Click the Apple/Sync button. New, modified and deleted entries should now be syncing correctly.
That's it! You should be all set and iTunes, iCal and our Apple iPhone should all be playing nicely as friends again. We've used the exact method to repair our own Apple iPhone at least once... maybe even twice.
MacBook Pro OSX.6.8 and iPhone 3GS

Hi,
Can't you restore your iPhone via iTunes and use the "restore from last backup". I know when I has my phone replaced this copied all my contacts (from my last sync)back to my phone.
Hope that helps

When I start up the computer, the dialogue box opens and saying that the procedure entry point splite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll. I tried to fix this problem by redownloading itunes, but the problem still

When I start up the computer, the dialogue box opens and saying that the procedure entry point splite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll. I tried to fix this problem by redownloading itunes, but the problem still persists. How can I fix it? thank you.

With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
Reboot and see if all is well
In case that your OS is Windows 7 (64 bit)
1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
4. Paste file "SQLite3.dll" to the location.
5. Reboot your computer, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
Good Luck

I am concerned that Apple thinks the imessage problem is only affecting a few users. That is not true. It is affecting me as well. Please fix it as soon as possible. Thank You

The imessage problem with IOS7 is affecting me. I just wanted to chime in because Apple said it is only affecting a few users. Don't believe it.

We've added you to the list of affected users & as soon as a fix is availble, we'll notify you .

My phone doesn't ring when someone is calling, but the sound works otherwise, like the alarm etc. I have tried to fix it in settings but still not working. anyone else have this problem?

Thanks so much but none of that helped. It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive. I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
Thank you for your help and replying to this. Guess I made my own issue!

Hello!
When there is unauthorized modifications on the iPhone Apple doesnt replace the product. Unfortunately you will need to get a new iPhone!
If you could have contacted Apple when you broke your screen you would be eligible to get a replacement after paying the Out of Warranty service fee.
All the best!
