Is anyone else having trouble seeing their screens when you are outside?

When is sunlight, absolutely. Not a problem with the Droid Ultra but rather all phones.
You ever see the commercial about the Nook devices. The have a special screen to reduce glare allowing you to see your screen in sunlight.
As far as I know, companies have not implemented this on anycell phone.
There are after market anti-glare screen protectors
Check Amazon or eBay, they should be relatively inexpensive.
Good Luck

Anyone else having trouble with their iPad disconnecting from wifi since 6.0.1 update

Anyone else having trouble with their iPad dropping wifi about once a week since 6.0.1 update?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Is anyone else having trouble tracking their free bumper shipment?

For some reason, I am having the worst time trying to track my free bumper shipment. I got the shipment confirmation e-mail from Apple on 7/30 with an estimated delivery date of 8/6. For the first two days, I got no information when I clicked on the DHL or USPS tracking numbers. Then, on about 8/2, it finally updated to MANIFESTED on 7/30 in Millington, TN. It has since been updating about 24-48 hrs behind, and the estimated delivery date is now 8/9!
Anyway, now it looks like it's saying it left the Atlanta, GA area on 8/4. I figured I'd get it today since I live in the panhandle of FL 10 miles south of the GA border (about a 4.5 hr drive from Atlanta).
Out of curiosity, I called DHL this morning. They said it was handed over to the USPS this morning, and I should get in midweek next week! The rep didn't really seem to care when I told her that on-line it says it was a 5 hr ride away, but I had called because the on-line tracking was updating 24-48 hrs behind. So, I didn't want to start anything - I just figured I'd call the USPS! Their automated system says they have no record of the package...ok...so I dialed "0" to speak to a rep, and it told me that "our automated tracking system is up to date, so the option of speaking to a rep is not available at this time!" WHAT?!?!? The USPS tracking website is even more behind the DHL site, but at least there is a record of it there! Here's what I have:
DHL
08/04/2010 06:46:00 INTRANSIT FOREST PARK, GA
08/03/2010 14:20:00 INTRANSIT FOREST PARK, GA
07/31/2010 14:09:00 SHIPMENT PICKED UP MILLINGTON, TN
07/30/2010 00:00:00 MANIFESTED Millington, TN
USPS
Service(s): Delivery Confirmation™
Status: Arrived Shipping Partner Facility
Your item arrived at a shipping partner facility at 2:20 pm on August 03, 2010 in FOREST PARK, GA 30297. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later.
To me, it looks like the information infers that the package was handed off to USPS on 8/3!
Anybody else with this problem? For anyone who has already received their free bumper, how long did it take after the shipping e-mail from Apple for it to arrive?
Any advice on how to actually speak to someone at the USPS?

sooo yeah, basically you're reallly impatient and are furious because there may, or may not, be a delay in your free case, even though it's still a day before the 'estimated' delivery date? hrmmmmm
I would say frustrated, not furious, but impatient, no. I ordered a case before the free case program about a month ago and THAT still hasn't shipped, lol! I already took one business trip with the phone and dropped it quite a few times (lol) and didn't even really get frustrated, but I am about to take another business trip that I leave for on Sunday, so I was beyond thrilled that my bumper was shipping early and scheduled right before I left for my next trip.
With that said, I am frustrated at the fact that I can't even track my package accurately from not only 1, but 2 entities, lol! I simply called, not because I was impatient, but because I had already been patient for the past week of beyond slow online updates and only when I had seen that it was so close to home a few days ago. So, yes, I can see how it appeared that I was impatient by calling, but at the rate things were updating on-line, I wouldn't know if there was a problem that maybe I could call their attention to until after I left for my trip.
So, again, I'm just frustrated at the disparity and even complete non-functioning (USPS telephone) of the tracking systems and was wondering if there was any way I could get in touch with a USPS rep. I wasn't frustrated at all prior to this morning. I was extatic, actually! Not even frustrated about it possibly coming late, just that nothing can definitively tell me if that is the case right now, lol!

Is anyone else having trouble synching their iPod contacts?

History:
While synching my older iPoud Touch (via cable link), with my new MacBook Pro (OS X Lion) I lost all of the contacts on the iPod and none of the lost contacts made it to the MacBook Pro ... before I knew it another back up ran so now my empty iPod backed itself up ... so RESTORE did not help me. Is it possible to request a back up from iTunes to a specific time before my operator error. Interestingly the sync with calendar worked like a charm.
I'm up to date for this iPod ... running 4.2.1 (8c148)
Update:
I entered a new contact into my iPod and ran sync again ... and the new addition was added to my computer's contact list, however the data from my computer did not update my iPod.
Does anyone have any insight why this seams to be a one way trip?

When is sunlight, absolutely. Not a problem with the Droid Ultra but rather all phones.

Is anyone else having trouble with their iCloud Accout from their PC?

Hello! For some reason, today, on both my iPhone and my PC, will not let me sign into my Mail in my iCloud Account. On my iPhone, it says that the Username and/or Password are incorrect. On my PC it just says "Cannot Load Mail..." Is this happening to anyone else? I've signed in multiple times with sucess! I just cannot access my Mail. Is there anyone with some advice? It would be greatly appreciated!

Have had the no email situation since last Friday 19/03.
It keeps saying I have the incorrect username/password.
Then when I try to login to mail from icloud.com, it comes up with a message, "Cannot load mail".
I called tech support yesterday. They have escalated to a senior engineer.
Still no resolution yet.
My wife's email went down today.

Is anyone else having trouble with their keyboards after installing iOS 7.1?

A few days ago, when the update for iOS 7 came up for me to upgrade to 7.1, I went ahead and upgraded it. After that, my iPad's internal keyboard and the external one I got for it started lagging for no reason.
I contacted Apple about it and they said to wipe my iPad. After it came up, my internal Keyboard started working like normal again. (I haven't tried my external yet but I'm sure it'll work too.)
From there, I went ahead and restored my iPad from my iTunes... and the problem came back since my iTunes had 7.1 saved on it.
What I'd like to know is what happened and why did this happen and if anyone else has had the same problem as me?

Try resetting the keyboard dictionary
Settings>General>Reset>Reset Keyboard Dictionary

Is anyone else having trouble with their iPhone on any kind of speakers?

Just last night, my iPhone 3gs just decided to stop working on any kind of speakers, iHome or other brands. I've plugged my phone into multiple speakers, and my phone will say that it's charging, and the power button to the speakers will say that the speakers are on, but my phone doesn't really register that it's connected to speakers. Whenever I hit play, my iPhone speakers play the music, not the speakers of the iHome. But whenever I plug my iPod classic into any of the speakers, the speakers work just fine. I'm thinking this must be an issue with the recent 4.1 update, but I don't know.
Does anyone know if there's anything I can do to solve this problem?

Yes, we all are having this problem. Search for Sony+iPhone and you'll see the threads. I have a Sony clock radio that used to work fine, now it's just a giant charger since applying OS4. Some people have got it to work by doing a hard reset so no apps are running except iPod. This didn't work for me though, and I used to also be able to play Pandora too before the upgrade.
BTW, I took my iPhone (it's a 3GS) to the Sony store and tried it on the models in the store. It worked with one of them, but not the others, so the newer ones might work. Not very useful if you've had one for a while though.

Is anyone else having trouble with their iweb website and the Internet Explorer 10 browser? Mine is not loading properly

I've tested Google Chrome, Safari and Firefox - everything looks great until I get to IE 10 - after uninstalling and going back to IE9 I'm good to go - but concerned about my client base using IE10 and not being able to visit my website. Has anyone found a solution?

Why find a solution for a problem that does not exist.
If your webpages display properly in modern browsers, then clearly it's an MSIE problem. As usual.
Identify what does not display properly and then make some adjustments to please all browsers.
And if your client base primarily uses Windows, why not use a PC to create webpages.
Or don't use iWeb and learn to code yourself. Which is always a good idea, with or without iWeb.
There are tons of topics on the internet about MSIE exceptions.
And remember, Windows users have choice too.

HT1665 has anyone else having trouble with their iPad mini and iPhone usb cords? we have 3 mini's in the house and 1 iPhone we don't let the kids plug the iPads in and my wife takes great care charging her iPhone. and still all the usb cords break at the

ok this is getting a little ridiculous we have 3 ipad mini's and 1 iphone in our household and everyone of the usb cords breaks at the plug that goes into the devices. The latest is my wifes iphone cord and the phone is only 3 weeks old. what gives apple? Never had a problem with the older style cords. Bad thing is they charge a small fortune fo these cords.

I have three non-working cords as well. The cable is so flimsy at the connector. If enough people complain then maybe Apple will try creating a better product! They should issue some credit or send customers a new cord.

Is anyone else having trouble with bookmarks in Windows Safari 4?

Is anyone else having trouble with their bookmarks in the Windows version of Safari 4? The Bookmarks Bar imported when I upgraded from Safari 3.2.2. But the Bookmarks menu can't be seen when I click the icon that looks like an open book. The History & Bookmarks Menu present in cover flow (which by the way I love and have found very useful). But the Bookmarks Menu option remains blank. At first I thought it hadn't imported - but I've realised they have imported, just aren't displaying.
They are definately imported because the same Bookmarks Menu is still present on my iPhone through MobileMe synch. Also I can get to the bookmarked pages by clicking Alt-Bookmarks. All the bookmarked pages are there (along with being on my iPhone). So they've imported - they just don't display in Coverflow (or any view at all) when I click the open book icon.
Does anyone have any solutions please.

Ok I have a fix for that....
I just figured this problem out for myself with a friend]
==============================================================
CLOSE SAFARI
go to MY COMPUTER
C:
Documents and Settings
Your name
Application Data
Apple Computer
Safari Folder
Delete BOOKMARKS.PLIST
( Now I have to warn you this WILL DELETE your bookmarks from Safari so back them up before you do this )
NOW........
go back and IMPORT your bookmarks
take all your bookmarks from the "IMPORTED ON XX/XX/XXXX " folder and drop them into the BOOKMARKS MENU at the top ( not the folder just your bookmarks)
NOW DO NOT DELETE the Imported on xx/xx/xxxx folder
for some reason when you delete the IMPORTED ON XX/XX/XXXX folder.... It causes them to go missing under BOOKMARKS MENU
SO as long as you dont delete the IMPORTED ON xx/xx/xxxx folder they will stay in the BOOKMARKS MENU where you can manipulate them
ALSO... DO NOT DELETE the IMPORTED FROM INTERNET EXPLORER
or IMPORTED FROM NETSCAPE/ MOZILLA FOLDERS
that will also cause your bookmarks menu bookmarks to go missing too
I guess this is a temp. fix for now
Thanks,
Christopher

Anyone else having trouble w/Nike+ website?

Can't access the login icon because it won't let me scroll to the top of the page.
http://nikeplus.nike.com/nikeplus/?sitesrc=uslanding
I don't have problems with other websites and this one isn't working on safari OR firefox. Other users have written back and said they had no trouble on the site but I even tried it on a different computer, on a PC no less with Windows/Internet Explorer and still have problems. I found something about enabling cookies, but that didn't seem to help either unless I didn't do it right. Is anyone else having this problem? How did you resolve it?

Tried it. No problem.
iTune can automatically send you to your nike+ account when you synch the iPod....might that make a difference?
Screen resolution??
Don't know.

With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)
