IOS 4.0.1 - call drops in 3G network, but not Edge network !?!

Upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.0.1 and have had dropped calls ever since. Never had dropped calls before. Messaging, emails and internet are fine, but all calls are dropped, even with 5 bars! The only constant is that I've been on the 3G network when the calls dropped, so I turned it off and have been on the Edge network for a few days without issue!
I have hard-reset my phone at least a dozen times and even restored my phone. I do not have bells & whistles installed.
Is this a traffic issue on the 3G network? I live in Hawaii, where there aren't tall buildings to block my signal.
ugh.

Since upgrading to iOS 4 it seems to me that the signal bars are reversed. In an area where I used to get maximum bars, I now only get 1 or 2. In an area where I never got reception at all (no signal zone) I am suddenly getting 5 bars, but guess what - I can't connect to anything, or send anything from there.
Either the latest upgrade has just sent the aerial dotty, or someone at Apple IT messed up when writing the signal strength algorithm.

If you are using IOS 4, you need to connect to iTune (computer) to update software.

How to use HOST call DOS continuous running problem but NOT hold Forms scre

In my Forms, I have a Button a start a MP3 recorder program to record voice, I use HOST command to init the program successfully. However, since the MP3 recorder program in continuous running, the HOST command hold my Forms screen until the MP3 program stop.
I have try to use Open_form to open another form to start this MP3 program. It still hold the whole Forms system.
Is there any solution to start a continuous running DOS program but NOT hold the Forms screen?
Thank You !

You didn't provide your host-command, so i simply guess its something like
HOST('"c:\Program Files\mp3.exe" someoptions');instead of calling the program directly, you could use a commadn batch along with the start-command, for this should launch the program asynchronously:
HOST('cmd /c start "c:\Program Files\mp3.exe" someoptions');hope this helps.

Calling my own cell phone but not getting through

After month of subscriptions I m through with Skype calling.
I still have valid subscription calling anywhere around the world but somehow when I call my cell phone, it is still ringing and ringing but my cell phone did get the call at all.
I give up live agent, it is not a good service.

What method of syncing contacts are you trying? Are you using iTunes to sync Contacts? Are you using iCloud Control Panel to link Outlook to iCloud, and then syncing Contacts from iCloud to your iPhone?

Anyone know why internet drops out for iMac but not ipad or iphone? Thanks

I have been trying to download Mountain Lion and I keep getting 'an error has occured' after about 40 mins or an hour. Then I notice that the iMac is not connected to the Internet. However the iPad and iPhone are (using airport). I am using ethernet adapters which are paired. I have also taken my 24inch iMac out of the study and into the hall and connected it directly to the router using an ethernet cable with still the same result. I have been on the Apple helpline to a high level but they have been unable to sort it out and we've checked most things. I have plenty of capacity on the iMac so it should take the Mountain Lion ios easily. I have checked the broadband speed and it was 6.21 (using the ethernet adaptors). Could there be a conflict somewhere between the iMac and the BT broadband? It does seem to drop out when we listen to our Sonos system too. Please help. Thanks, Fioled

Downloading Moutain Lion requires a high speed broadband connection.
6.21 will never work. That is not broadband.
Make certain your Mac can run Mountain Lion > System requirements for OS X Mountain Lion
Check your download speed here > Speedtest.net by Ookla - The Global Broadband Speed Test
Anything less than 15Mbps will not be fast enough to download Mountain Lion. It's a 4.35GB (approximately) file. That will time out on a slow connection.

I downloaded Lion on my MacBookPro and on my MacMini. I have Air Drop on the mini, but not on the laptop. What am I missing?

Drag and Drop to Source Monitor but not Double Click?

Has anyone seen this issue? I've got an importer plugin. If you drag and drop a clip into the source monitor, then it works fine. But if you double click it then nothing happens. Any idea why this would happen? Normal clips (like MOV files) work fine so there must be something wrong with my plugin.
Thanks!

Thanks Steve! For any one else with the same issue, the actual culprit was setupOnDblClk.

Audio drops out of movie but not menu

I have an iMovie that I burned to disc successfully via iDVD. Then, I went back to the movie, made one small text change to a title page, resaved, and tried to burn again. Since then, I have lost the audio every time I try and burn the DVD again.
What's odd is that the movie audio drops out, but the menu audio is still there. Also, when I 'preview' the movie in iDVD, the audio is working just fine. I have five songs in the movie.
Any ideas?
Thanks so much!
(These are iMovie 6 and iDVD 6 btw.)
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2.1 GHz, 512 MB Memory

After you made the change in iMovie, did iDVD ask you to update the project?
First go to iMovie and "extract audio" This is often a catch-all for some audio issues. Close iMovie.
Then go back to iDVD, open the project - if iDVD asks (and it should) choose "update" Then "delete encoded assets"
Then use "Save as Disk Image". This will do everything but burn your DVD - it will save the encoded project to a .img file. After iDVD is finished encoding, double click on the .img file, and it will mount like a drive. Use the DVD player application (it may launch on its own) to view the image.
If this .img file has good audio, then burn the image with Disk Utility (in your Applications/utiltiies folder - see Disk Utility help for how to burn the .img file)
If this still has audio that drops out, I'd suggest building a new iDVD project with the edited move.

Dropped Frames on MacPro, but not on G5

Hi, I just upgraded to a MacPro 16 gig ram, & 1 TB 2nd drive. Also I have two FW800 drives I use for projects. I'm not capturing any video on the system drive. The problem is my video is not playing back smoothly and i get a dropped frames notice. This happens working in both HD and SD, even in NTSC DV. When I move the drives back to my old G5 everything runs great. I'm wondering if there is something wrong with the MacPro? I have trashed the FCP preferences, still not performing well. Any thoughts would be great.
Thanks
Travis

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Dropped hard disk, recognized but not accessed

Yesterday I dropped my WD 2TB My paasport Ultra portable hard disk. When I plug it, my pc recognize that is an external WD hard disk but I can't acces my data. I can see it on device management but on disk management says it is uknown with no capacity. What can I do? Is there any idea??? Thank you in advance

Hello and welcome to the WD Community.
Sounds like the drive got corrupted.
If you need the information on the drive, I'll recommend you to use a data recovery software to get the files out of the drive.

Since updating to iOS 7 I get text messages on my phone but not my iPad or visa versa. Why?

Is there a bug in the iOS 7 that doesn't allow text messages to appear on both iPhone and iPad? It worked fine before the upgrade.

These are iMessages, not text messages as in SMS/MMS.
On your iPhone go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.
Below the "You can be reached by iMessage at" section, is the same selected there as is selected at the same location on your iPads?
With iMessage enabled with the same Apple ID on multiple iOS devices along with the same settings for Send & Receive on each iOS devices, iMessages will be synced so to speak on each device. This is designed so you can start an iMessage conversation with an iPad, leave with your iPhone and continue the conversion with all recevied and sent iMessages available on each iOS device. With an iPhone and iPad activated with iMessage with the same Apple ID, you will have your iPhone's cell phone available on the iPad to start a new conversion from and to receive iMessages addressed to your iPhone's cell phone number. I have Message on my Mac, on my iPad, and my iPhone set to start a new conversation with my iPhone's phone number.

Airport extreme drops out on imac, but not on powerbook....

Hi
Here's what i have running.
A 4 year old powerbook which always connects just fine to the internet, with no dropping of the signal.
A new imac with a airport extreme built in. It regularly just drops the internet connection, even though the internet is seen perfectly by the other machine.
Router is a standard netgear router virgin media provide.
Periodically, and some days it will be totally fine, but mostly on the weekends (like now) the signal on the imac just drops out (from perfect 4 bars, to none) and i lose access to the internet on this machine (very annoying when you are trying to talk to someone on skype!). after some time it reappears, only to drop out again.
I have reset the modem to automatically select a wireless channel, but that seems to have done nothing. So following the advise on other chats here, i set the channel to 10. However the problem remains. I thought, well, maybe its the wireless phone, or the microwave, but these do not seem to affect the internet connection to the powerbook g4. The software updater for the "airport utility" claims it is up to date.
And now i am totally lost as to what to do! Any suggestions? Thanks

I have this very same issue. Reproducable on 2 laptops (ibook and powerbook), both 10.4.3, to 2 separate ftp servers.
Transmit fails as well.
Fetch, however, seems to work just fine. Does Fetch not use the underlying ftp command line app?
Transferring small files (under 1k) seems to work though.
The message I get is as follows:
421 Service not available, remote server timed out. Connection closed
Timesout for 10-20 seconds, then I get the message. Setting the transfer mode to "binary" manually seems to correct the issue. But this won't work for what I'm doing (Dreamweaver, which must use the command line ftp?).
Attempting to ftp the same files from my local Solaris and Linux servers seems to work just fine.
sftp works.
Apple? Is ftp broken?

FCPX: Clips have dropped frames in timeline, but not in Event Library or VLC

I make movie montages (or supercuts as they're more widely known) and I'm constantly running into this issue. Here's my workflow:
1) Convert movie to .mp4 using Handbrake
2) Extract clip from converted movie using MPEG Streamclip
3) Import clip into FCPX
In FCPX I have the project's framerate set to 23.98 at 1280x720. When converting a movie to .mp4, I set the framerate to 23.976 (NTSC) in Handbrake.
- Clips play fine in VLC.
- Clips play fine in the Event Library.
- As soon as they're moved into the timeline, playback is choppy.
This doesn't happen with all clips, and there doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason as to why one plays fine and the other doesn't. What am I missing? What should I be looking for when comparing clips?
Final Cut Pro X 10.0.6
Mid 2011 Mac Mini
Processor 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6630M 256 MB
Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)

You could do the MP4 to PR .mov conversion in Streamclip or Compressor.
