Is this reception thing a fault, or just a disadvantage of perfect design?
I am wanting to buy the phone4, but I am currently a little put off. What is the deal with the antenna? from the manufacturer view there is nothing wrong with the phone and I have seen no announcement to state otherwise. From an owner view it seems to be mixed opinion, a fault, a minor issue, or a trivial one. With resolutions ranging from waiting for updates, buying extra bits, or just holding it differently.
Apparently the 3gs which now works with os4? has the same reception problem, so is it software related?? if so why do applepeeps not confirm this, as £499 is to much of an outlay for it to be hardware related.
No one can decide for you but I had a 3g for 17 months will signal faults and drop call like every other cell phone before it. My iphone 4 performs at least as well and even better on processor speed than any other I've had. I always kept all phones, including this one in a case. Sure it's pretty, but it's also made of glass. There's a reason they don't let you bring glass to the pool. Would you really want to carry a glass phone in your pocket unprotected?

i have just upgraded from an iPhone 3Gs to an iPhone 5. I am trying to transfer all my content via icloud but having problems logging in - it keeps telling me the server is not responding. Nano sim hasn't yet been registered - does this affect things?
Have you activated your phone with your carrier yet?

My Iphone 5 does this weird thing where it just freezes, some random vertical lines show up, and shuts off. Does anyone know what the cause of this is?
Backup and restore your software via iTunes. If the problem continues, restore as a NEW device. If this solves it, that means there is some corruption in your backup file, or maybe it's one of your apps causing the trouble. If the problem is still there, you should take it to the Genius Bar at an Apple Store for evaluation.

i just got an update and it took all my apps away and then i went on settings and put on this voice thing and i dont know how to get it off
You can set up more than one device on your computer, and iTunes will remember the settings for each of them:

But you'll have to use your Apple ID to sync bought media to her device. Disable all other things you don't want to sync like photos, contacts, etc. -
This may seem basic, but I just discovered that I do not have a share button (the one with the little arrow jumping out) to the left of my address bar on Safari for my Mac. I do have one on my IPad and use it often. Can anyone tell me why my Mac is missing this icon and how to get it? Thanks.

Going from Lion to Mountain Lion is considered an upgrade (because it is not free), not an update.
So yes, given that you have Lion, you are up to date. But if you can, you might consider going to Mountain Lion for a fee.
Here's what you need to do the upgrade:

This repeat-repeat-repeat fault is isolating a 90 ...
I do not say this lightly. We are desperate to fix this problem.
An engineer is booked but many have faled already so a well-founded diagnosis would be welcome.
(Non-engineers can skip to the bottom of the page to see the latest in atrocious customer service.)
This is a repeat fault - about 4 times over 3 years.
On one occasion the 'fix' only lasted 4 days.
On another the engineer left without fixing anything.
The next guy persuaded it to work for a few months.
And here we are again.
Sometimes the line works but it is very unreliable.
Using the line a lot seems to clear it up temporarily.
User diagnotics (except line test) always point to the BT line.
Often the outgoing audio starts off at zero.
Next thirty seconds the outgoing voice is very buzzy.
Eventually the outgoing voice becomes audible.
Sometimes the outgoing audio stays at zero.
Tone dialling is dodgy.
Sometimes a 'redial' fails but dialling very slowly succeeds.
Sometimes the dial tone continues when trying to dial.
Sometimes even 1 handset connected directly does not work properly.
Things get much worse if a microfilter is used.
Connecting/disconnecting the router seems to make no difference.
We have tried at least 3 working handsets and 6 working microfilters.
All items work fine on a similar BT line elsewhere.
Some were even new items bought from the BT shop.
The automated line test seems to pass 99% of the time.
Yet sometimes even BT helpdesk cannot hear our outgoing voice.
This line supports a carelink phone.
My father in-law is 90 and has health issues.
It is unbelievable that this problem has not been traced and fixed.
BT Customer service 'help' line ???
In 40 plus minutes the "help" desk pushed me beyond furious.
The first Indian faults helper took all the details.
Then she told me to get my local engineer to investigate and that he should contact BT engineers.
She then passed me to billing for no obvious reason.
The lady in billing spoke better English.
She took a few details and then passed me back to faults.
The next guy seemed technically clueless.
I told him that 6 different designs of microfilter did not fix it.
This included a T-shaped one and two with captive leads.
All 6 worked elsewhere on a BT line with broadband.
He insisted that the fix was to change the microfilter drop cable.
(What, all 6 have a broken 'drop cable' ? Really ???)
He then REFUSED to send an engineer because auto-test found no faults.
So, no diagnostic skills and unwilling to satisfy a direct request !
(Who hired him and how did he get in at all ?)
It then took repeated requests and a non-abusive but long and exceedingly
stressful verbal fight just to get someone sent out to fix this.
What happened next seems to prove that outsourcing BT call centres is a real disaster.
It also underlines that helpdesks don't have to be unspeakably stressful for the customer.
The UK engineering appointments lady called me and was very helpful.
She suggested that the line should be flagged because of his age and health.
She seemed to be the one who was able to cheerfully provide me with some actual help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.This was reported on Sunday.
(= repeat-repeat-repeat-repeat-repeat fault in recent memory).
I was told it would be fixed on Monday.
(The engineers had received the task early Monday)
I was told it would be fixed on Tuesday afternoon or at worst Weds morning.
Then I was told definitely today.
No sign of any repair activity AT ALL.
This is a 'vulnerable' case.
He has been left isolated AGAIN for more than three days.
(5 days if you count the the original error that cut him off)
What on earth is going on ?
The prority care person hung up after 3 rings (I counted).
I picked the phone up and got "dead air" at the other end.
Apparently that counts as a communication attempt.
I have emailed two different mods but they are clearly both
too busy with faults in general to reply yet.
Is anyone actually going to DO something to fix thiis ? -
I have a Sonos system in my house and suddenly discovered that many songs I bought off of iTunes years ago are 'grayed out' when I try to play them from my iPhone or do not appear as options at all when I try to play them on Sonos from my overall music library. It's well over 100 songs I bought back before mid-2009 when Apple dropped this DRM thing. From what I think I am reading, if I want to play those songs on Sonos, the ONLY way to do so is pay Apple another $25/year for iTunes Match (which I don't have any interest in) and then re-download them all in iTunes Plus format??
Matt,
I agree it was not all communicated real well, but in your case it will work out. You missed the program where you could have upgraded 100 tracks for 30 cents each (=$30) but now you can do it via Match (=$25). It works pretty simply, per this document:
Can I upgrade my previously purchased music to iTunes Plus?
Yes. If you subscribe to iTunes Match, you can download your previously purchased music again in the iTunes Plus format. To do so:
You need to delete the original DRM song from your library first. Doing this enables you to download the song again in the iTunes Plus format from iTunes in the Cloud.
Click the Purchased tab in the iTunes Store.
Click Music.
Locate the artist of the song you want to upgrade.
Click the iCloud Download icon next to the song you want to upgrade.
Just don't forget to put the Plus files on your hard drive -- properly backed up of course -- and to cancel the Match subscription before the second year rolls around! -
I have the latest ipod nano (7th gen, 16gb) and I use it mostly on bluetooth. When the battery dies during use with the Bluetooth it doesn't take a charge, the battery doesn't turn on and of course the computer doesn't even acknowledge that it's plugged in. This is my second nano in just over a month, the same thing happen with the first one. I just want to know if their is a way to fix this so I don't have to keep sending it in? Or maybe pay the difference to upgrade to a touch?
If the battery has been completely depleted on the Nano (not really a good idea) then it is going to take 15 to 30 minutes before your computer can see it. Same thing will happen with an iPod Touch.

How to make this two things at the same time ?
Hello
When my mouse is on a area, I need :
- to show a object (a rectangle inserted with the toolbar)
- to show a caption
I think it's not possible to do this two things at the same time when I use the rollover functions (Rollover caption or Rollover Image).
I would like to use a button, but the button works only if I click it, and not when I just pass my mouse on it.
Someone have an Idea?
I can't use Javascript.
ThanksRick is correct. You can use the Rollover Slidelet's rollover area to trigger an Advanced Action. You'll need to create this Advanced Action with two clauses. One to SHOW the caption, and the other to SHOW the rectangle.
Your alternative to the rollover slidelet is to use an Event Handler widget attached to the object that the mouse should roll over.
The Event Handler will detect when the mouse is over the object and trigger its own Success criteria. You can then use the widget's ON Success event to trigger the Advanced Action as mentioned above.
More information about using the Event Handler here: http://www.infosemantics.com.au/adobe-captivate-widgets/download-free-trial-widgets
An example of using it to do two different things on the same object can be found at this web page: http://www.infosemantics.com.au/adobe-captivate-advanced-elearning-tutorials/beat-adobe-ca ptivate-interactive-catch22

I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract. Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy. I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s and keep my same plan but switch to the Edge program. Is this possible? I don't think I should have to pay an early termination fee or anything like that since my phone has become almost unusable. I know under normal circumstances you have to wait 2 yrs to upgrade but due to the update and the poor service I'm now getting I hope Verizon can make an exception. Thank you.
How recently did you switch? If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account. The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices. I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...

my phone no longer changes the view/picture/map when i go from vertical to the horizontal position is this some thing to do with the accelerometer
No, that would probably be the orientation lock. Check up by the battery icon and see if you have an icon with a small lock and a circular arrow. Either way, go to the Control Center, swiping up from the bottom of the screen. Look at the top row of icons and the orientation lock is the last one on the right. White is on, black is off. Just turn it off and you should be alright. Understand there are some apps that do not change into the landscape mode from portrait.

Sometimes, for no apparent reason, I lose a note in my notes application. This happens when I either have just opened a notes page or when next time I open my ipad, a note just isn't there anymore. It does seem to occur randomly i.e. independent of note size or age. Very annoying. I guess it can only be retrieved from iCloud before the next automatic back-up? Does anyone know why this happens and what can be done about it to prevent it in future? Is there a limit to how many note pages this app can store (presently I have about 70). I have started to email every note I make on my iPad to myself to be on the safe side. Is the Notes App really so unreliable? Anyone else with the same problem?
Oddly enough, the size/format of some names can make odd things happen with network Time Machine backups, and at least one of yours may be involved. See #C9 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum).
Do your self a favor, though. Even if you get this working, do not depend on these backups 100%. There's a reason Apple doesn't support it -- it's not reliable.
There are any number of threads here and in the Airport Extreme forum similar to this one: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2483045
If you still want to do it, see Using Time Machine with an Airport Extreme Air Disk (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum). -
My iPad is suddenly not loading any apps. When I click on an app, the screen flickers to black and then back to normal, but will not load the app. This is ALL the apps, not just one. Have tried rebooting, to no avail.
Was a Restore one of the things tried.? [Attach the iPad to your computer and in iTunes click on your device. On the Summary page click on Restore and go through the process. Be sure to click YES to Restore from a previous backup.]

ASK FOR THIS 3 THING, PINNED ITEM AND .... HOW I DO THIS ?
hello to everyone
i learn any thing i need about Adobe Muse ! its Awsome soft , just 3 thing left that i learn , i search a lot and i work with many items in adobe muse but i cant find how i shoud DO this 3 thing
if my Description or EN language is bad , im sorry
1.
i know how create an pinned menu or item in adobe muse . when i pin an object , its not moving at all from start to end of my page !! but in some website i see that an object is in middle of site and when i scroll down this item pinned to up and going down with scroll ! how can i create this ?? like this black category :
OR EXACTLY LIKE THE EDITORS MENU IN ADOBE MUSE FORUM EDITOR
2.
i know how i shoud make a pinned menu in top of my site that always show this manu in any place on page (top or down)
but in some website i didnt see this menu and when i scroll down after few seconds the menu its showing to me by going from 0% opacity to 100% .. like an animation and after that , it is pinned to up of the visible page !! how can i creat it ?
3.
i know how to change button color when mouse is on the button ! but i dont know how i can set speed oh changing color ! i mean my button changing color exactly when the mouse is on button
but in few website when my mouse target is on button i can see changing color in slowly speed like an animation ! how can i set this feauter ?
IMPORTANT : EVERYTHING I LEARN IS FROM READY AND FREE MUSE PROJECT ! IF IS HARD OR IMPOSSIBLE THAT EXPLAIN ME HOW I CAN DO THIS 3 STEPS , SO PLEASE MAKE A PROJECT FROM ALL THIS 3 THING AND GIVE ME AN BLANK READY PROJECT WHIT JUST THIS 3 SUBJECT / OR GIVE ME DOWNLOAD LINK FROM ANY PROJECT THAT USE THIS SUBJECTSHi hamidrezax,
For Query 2) Yes, it is possible with Muse:
1) Create a menu bar as explained in the following link:
Adobe Muse CC Tutorial | Scrolling Sticky Navigation - YouTube
2) Keeping in mind, the same values as the above video; from the Scroll Effects panel, choose "Opacity"; and give it the following values:
Fade position 1: 0px 0% (So, initially the opacity of the object is zero)
Key position 1: 76px 0% (So, the opacity of the object is zero up till the key position)
Fade position 2: 77px 100% (As soon as the key position is reached, the opacity will change to 100%)
I hope this helps!
For Query 3) I am afraid, with Muse, you can apply different states to the object, which will change as soon as you hover on to them. You cannot set transition effects on states.
For Query 4) About sticking the panel groups to the left, this was added in the 2014 release, Muse v7.2 will not allow you to do that. However, you may drag it to a convenient space.
For Query 5) About the issue with the preview and exported html, could you please elaborate the issue a little?
Also, kindly let me know if the published version looks fine, or has the same issue.
Regards

The easy thing would be to just create an incremental upgrade...
Following Comment is Taken from Larry Jordan's Blog
In every conversation I’ve had with Apple, each person stressed: “The easy thing would be to just create an incremental upgrade. But, we felt that while the current version of Final Cut held up well for the last ten years, it wasn’t ready for the next ten. We needed to design something from the ground up to take us into the next ten years.”
I sure would have preferred what those "persons" referred to as the "Easy Thing"....
Well, in the years to come I will remember FCPX for sure, though. Though perhaps not in the sense the developers had hoped for.Hey Boxman, I'm guessing lack of interest. Think about it, once the novelty wears thin, just how much time would or do you really spend looking at your home page? Me personally, just enough to find the app I need and push the button. Besides, isn't the battery life on your iPod short enough for you? Dynamic backgrounds are one of the first things you turn off to conserve battery life! That said, it would be kinda cool, for a little while anyway. Like Stevejobsfan0123 stated go to Contact Us>Feedback, and tell Apple your opinion. Hope this helps. Cheers.
