IPhone 3G ** key does not allow me to access my land line voice mailbox...

OK, I have a great iPhone 3G issue for you. Here it is...
In order for me to retrieve my voice mail messages on my office land line, I have to call my office direct dial phone number. After that outgoing message begins to play, I have to press ** on my iphone keypad to prompt the voice mail phone system to let me know dial my extension number and password. On my old iphone 2G, it works fine. But with the new iphone, it does not. Another words, when I press **, it does not allow me to the part where I dial my extension number and password. It instead instructs me to dial my extension number and leave a message (not enter my password). Possibly the ** tones from the new phone are too short? Not sure? There are two other people at my company that are having the exact same issue on their 3G phones as well. I even went to the AT&T store and tested it on the display iphones there. Same problem...

I was on the phone for an hour today with tech support. I spoke first to a tech support agent and next to an iPhone product specialist. Neither had heard of this issue, but I referred them to this thread and they now know it is an issue.
The product specialist tried to solve the problem and could not. He told me he was emailing the engineers to determine a workaround. He told me he would call me by Tuesday at the latest. His name is Richard and I will continue to update our progress in fixing this issue as I receive information.
If we can't access our land line corporate voicemail I don't see how I can keep the iPhone even though it otherwise works well and has many positive benefits over the Windows-based smartphone I was using (and may have to go back to).

  • HT201441 Iphone 4s ICloud does not allowed me to access phone.

    I recently bought an Iphone 4s. The Previous owner left their Icloud link with this Iphone.
    I am not able to acces the phone because iit is telling me to to type the previous owner I.D. and Password
    I was wondering if I could bypass this . This Phone is currently using IOS 7.1?

    You need to contact the previous owner, and have them remove the activation lock using the kBase article you referenced, or try to get a refund.

  • Starting iTunes 11 with the option key does not allow me to link my ipad with Remote

    I am using my Macbook Pro as a pure music server with a 2TB external USB 3 HD where all my music resides in a single folder.  Yet when I start iTunes by holding the option key (to allow iTunes to see the 2TB folder and not import all my music), the Devices tab is grayed out and hence my iPad3 is not recognised. As a result, I cannot use Apple's Remote App.
    The same hardware, does allow my to import a small named Library when the iPad is recognised.
    What gives? Any suggestions would help me to keep my hair!

    Try a Skype reset:

    You may also want to test it out in Safe Mode with Networking to see if anything changes.  Since Skype uses IE in the background make sure you Internet Explorer is able to browse web pages without restriction or that it isn't in some type of forced offline mode.

  • HT204053 How do I have my  wife's iphone 4s upload pics to the same icloud used for my ipad and iphone?  Phone does not allow changing icloud ID once established.

    How do I have my wife's iphone 4s upload pics to the same icloud I use for with my 4s and ipad?  Can seem to change her icloud ID to match mine.

    I can tell you how to do this but first wanted to be sure that's what you want to do.  You would then be sharing the same iCloud account and any synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.) would then be merged and the merge data would appear on her phone and your iPad (i.e., you'll end up with each other's contacts on your phone). You would also both be backing up your devices to the same account, sharing the 5GB of free storage (assuming you're both backing up to iCloud).
    There's an alternative setup that would allow her to set up your iCloud account on her phone as her primary account and just turn on photo stream in that account (allowing your to share you photo stream), then set up a secondary iCloud account on her phone that would sync her Mail, Notes, Contacts, Calendars and Reminders.  She would still have to back up her phone to your account, as well as syncing Safari, Documents and Find My iPhone (all of which can only be done in the primary account).  Also, her mail would be fetch, not push as push email is only supported in the primary account.
    I suppose a third option is to leave things as they are and share you photos with each other using shared photo streams.
    Let me know what you want to do and I'll give you the steps.

  • My PC does not allow me to access Playbook files

    When I connect my PB to my computer to transfer or manage document file and I click on the Z drive, I get the following message:
    Z:\ is not accessible
    Logon Failure: unknown user name or bad password
    How do I fix this?
    Thanks

    The current version of the OS doesn't allow you to just plug in your Playbook and access it as a Mass Storage device.  You'll need to do this:

  • I am the admin on my mac pro but it does not allow me to access everything. It tells me that I do not have permission to see the contents

    How can I get full acess to everything m=on my MacPro??

    Most things that you need to see and change are available to Admin users. Some of the unix "guts" are in hidden files.
    Most of those can be accessed by using the Finder's Go menu and entering "/private" in the where to go box. This will give you access to many files in var, tmp, and etc directories, but some will still be locked, and a few are still invisible.
    If you need to, you can enablle and log in as Root User. This will give you access to everything, and by accessing things you should not be accessing while the system is running, you can quickly make it so that your Mac will not work without a System re-Install.

  • My control button does not allow me to return to the home page. I have to completely shut down the system and reboot to switch to another application.

    My navigating button, key does not allow me to switch to other applications. To do this I have to
    Shut down and reboot. I spoke with apple customer service on
    Friday and they has me connect to the computer and download any new
    And updated information. That resolved the issue for one day and the problem
    Started again.

    Try restoring your phone as a "new" device in iTunes, not from backup. When finished, eject your phone. Do not sync any content back to your phone. How are things working now? If OK, sync your content back to your phone. If not, make an appointment at an Apple store, as you most likely have a hardware issue.

  • I have 2 emai accounts which worked perfectly on iphone 4 but on iphone 5 my msn account wont let me reply to emails sent to that account, it leaves the message in my outbox saying recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying

    I have 2 email accounts which both worked perfectly well on my ipone 4 but since going over to iphone 5 my msn account will not allow me to reply to any emails. It places a message on my screen stating a copy has been placed in your Outbox. The recipient   @.com was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying. Any ideas on how I can sort this. Would it be worth deleting my MSN account ant putting re-inputting the details again?

    Your email provider has blocked the standard mail port 25 for sending emails and is requiring a different port. This is to avoid mail relays that use mail clients to send spam. You need to find the port that is used by your provider for sending outgoing mail. Then change the settings in your email account on your phone to match the port. You will also have to provide some security credentials for the account.
    You can also try deleting the email account from your iphone, and the adding the email account back as this will many times set the correct port for sending emails.
    You could also do a Google search on the the settings for your device with your email provider. That will provide you with the proper settings.
