My Skype number shows up different than what I pur...

my friends can call me with the number i purchased but when I call them its a different number????

661CALLER-My SKYPE# callerID changed twice to 661+7different digits, when calling my spouse. It said Palmdale area on his cell with the accompanying#. I asked where he was when I called, he was next to a particular store both times on separate days. I am not from California which is the area code 661 Palmdale area-so possibly a SKYPE friend calling you-unknowingly being assigned a different #, because of a different LOCATION on your part or possibly theirs. I was told they patch in #'s typically a California area code another ex. 559. He answered the calls even with the odd area code & answered in a hesitant voice, then told me it said Palmdale when I called-fyi-my location was consistent for a year laptop on kitchen table-he was traveling to costco store both times when happened-Call was normal just different caller ID both times.

  • Itunes shows library different than on Touch

    What's showing as on my IPod Touch 5th gen. is different than what's actually on the device and available for me to play.
    I know, you won't believe me, but ITunes shows a whole different list of songs than what I see when I browse the device. It's like 2290 items according to iTunes, (good!), compared with 127 songs I can see on the device (bad!). Coincidentally, those 100 or so are all ones I've purchased from Apple.
    The truth is that I've had persistent, massive problems with this thing over its life, which I've occasionally railed about here. Long story.
    Question is, how do I get these two in sync again? - with all the tracks I've put on it, painstakingly, over hours and days. I suppose this could easily be for the ITouch forum, but I'm arbitrarily posting here because it occurs after hooking the device up to iTunes.
    Thanks for any info.

    In an ideal world all of your media content is on your system drive, listed in iTunes and organized in a portable layout. You then have a complete clone of the iTunes folder as a backup. If your system drive is too small to hold everything then putting the entire library on an external drive with a backup on a second drive also works. If you want access to some content on the laptop when travelling without having to take the external then it is possible to split the library up and store some content locally and not others, but that requires more effort to get right.
    I'm still not clear what has gone wrong on your system, but some third party tools (e.g. Sony VIAO media manager and some antivirus packages) can interfere with the way the iTunes updates its database files leading to the concessional corruption. iTunes also expects all media content to stay in the same place so any manual manipulation of the media folders can lead to trouble.

  • Safari shows colors different than other browsers and GoLive

    Does anyone know why Safari shows colors differently than Firefox, Explorer and Opera, Mozilla and Golive?
    For example if I use "websafe" colors in photoshop with 2.2 gamma and sRGBie...2.1 and save, then import into Go Live with the working space the same, North America Web/ Internet, the colors are typically darker, although occasionally they are the same.
    I have tried embedded profiles and non embeded.
    The difference only happens when I view the page in Safari. By the way I use a mac, GoLive CS2
    This is a constant frustration. I have created several tests but have found no satisfactory results. I am in the process of creating a website for teachers who use powerbooks and safari. And this color change really restricts creative possibilities. If the same page is viewed in Firefox it looks like it does in GoLive.
    Thanks for any help,
    Kevin

    >> When no profile is in use.. Safari will assume sRGB becaus this is the web standart profile...
    True on Windows Safari and other Windows browsers.
    Safari on Mac and other Mac browsers 'assumes, assigns, applies' the Mac's default monitor profile to untagged color.
    This is easy to proof here in the sRGB rollover:
    http://www.gballard.net/psd/go_live_page_profile/embeddedJPEGprofiles.html
    If Mac Safari 'assumed' sRGB on untagged files, then the sRGB rollover will have zero change.
    +++++
    >> converting to sRGB before saving for the web ensure god color in all browseres, and JPG and PNG can be savde with color profile
    Except in Mac browsers that have 1.8 monitor gamma profiled.
    The Mac-specific problem with trying to match tagged graphics on matched-color background in Safari is:
    1) The color background is untagged and will Assume default Monior RGB.
    2) The tagged graphic will be Converted to Monitor RGB.
    In other words, if you fill a page with 4bb93c and place a tagged sRGB image, filled with 4bb93c, the two colors won't match up in color-managed Mac web browsers like Mac Safari...however, if you untag the sRGB file, it will disappear on the page, but it will be off color depending how close Monitor RGB is to sRGB profile in Mac browsers.
    Windows, on the other hand is a different beast, it Assigns sRGB to untagged color, so tagged/untagged sRGB will be good in all Windows browsers.
    At least that is what I have seen here on my Windows Vista Business box.

    My phone number shows a different number in the contacts my number section. How do I change it as I cannot even load airtime

    You need to set up the accounts in System Preferences/Accounts, then activate Fast User Switching.
    That way you can quickly log in to your own account - then back to his.
    You should obviously have different passwords.

  • FCP7 HELP - Exported quicktime mov plays differently than what I edited on the timeline. The playback shows the clips with ins and outs that are different than what I set in the clips when I edited - some are too early and the clips don't playback

    Please help ASAP.
    Specs: IOS 10.6.8
    Processor 2.4GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3 -- Everything is edited, sourced, and stored on an 2TB external hard drive to make things go faster.
    Editing with FCP 7
    When I export the sequence I edited with quicktime, the playback video is very different from what I edited on the timeline. The playback has the clips with ins and outs that are way off than what I cut, and some of the clips don't show at all or have changed transitions. However when I play in the timeline in FCP, the sequence is fine, just the way I cut it.
    The source of the clips was one long .mov that I cut into clips for the timeline. Everything has gone smoothly but the exported .mov is just so different.
    How can I get the time codes of the clips to be the same in the exported .movs? I just want the quicktime .mov to represent my edit exactly.
    This video is due tomorrow - if the solution is too time consuming, can I play within the FCP player window and Log and Capture?
    Thanks,
    MV

    What is your source material? Is it H.264? FCP does not work correctly with that material.
    Click on a source clip in the FCP Browser, and once selected, type Command + 9 to see the item properties for the clip. Either report those properties, or take a screen shot of the item properties, and post that here.
    Next, click anywhere in your timeline, and then type Command + 0 {zero} to see your Sequence Settings. Either report those Sequence Settings, or take a screen shot of the Sequence Settings and post that here.

  • Keyboard issue - types different than what keyboards shows

    Hi,
    before my keyboard settings were Spanish (Dutch), since today these settings are just Spanish ... resulting in some keys giving a different outcome than what it shows on the keyboard.
    For example when I want to type \ by using the ALT + 1st button on 2nd row I keep on getting { ... and this applies to a lot of other signs/symbols as well.
    I tried to change it through language settings but not to my surprise Spanish (Dutch) is nowhere to be found there.
    What does this Spanish (Dutch) actually mean ... and more important how can I get it back?
    I´m sure this is very easy to sort out ... I just don't seem to find the solution.
    Can anyone help?

    Your keyboard layout is determined by what box is checked in system preferences/language & text/input sources.  Go there and make sure that only the layout you want has its box checked.
    There is no keyboard layout called Spanish (Dutch).  Try Spanish ISO or Dutch and see if that is what you are used to.  If not, please provide some additional examples of particular key combinations you want and we will try to determine which layout you should check.

  • What's showing in the layer palette is different than what is on the canvas - Illustrator CS6

    I am not a super user in Illustrator but I know my way around it and understand more than the basics.  I downloaded this vector from Shutterstock, but what I am seeing on the layer palette is different from what is on the canvas and if I try to save or export it to anything else the result comes out looking like the layers palette - almost black.
    And it's only happening on a few of the objects, as you can see from the image, the apple and other leaves are fine.  It is also doing it to the pumkin and some of the grapes in the cornicopia.  Any idea what is going on?  I checked all my layers to see if something looked weird but they all look fine...
    When I open the original .eps file from Shutterstock in Photoshop, I get the same black objects.

    What OS? If Mac, then this might be affecting you.

  • Skype Number with a different Area Code

    Good afternoon Ladies and Gents.
    I'm from Brazil, and today I tried to create a Skype Number, because I work offshore, and on the Rig, it is not possible to call numbers with different area codes.
    My question is:
    I'm from Rio de Janeiro(Area Code 21), but I would need a number from Macaé (Macaé is a city of Rio de Janeiro state), and its code is 22, but I have no option to choose another area code, because 21 is only for Rio de Janeiro city, and I have to select Rio de Janeiro(state), but cannot select the area code. Is it possible to create a number with the Macaé area code (something like +55 22 4002-6663)?
    Thank you, and I am waiting your comments.

    Yes the Skype number is attached to your account no matter what calling subscription you have.
    You can stop your UK subscrition and buy the European subscription, maybe even buy the Euro subscription before the UK one runs out if you can't wait.
    Skype can recognise multiple subscriptions and charge the call accordingly.

  • Skype number shows up, but we never purchased one

    Now when we call someone a phone number shows up on caller ID as one from the area we are at. We never purchased a skype number and seek to remove this number. How can this be done?

    Hi, Hopesdreamz, and welcome to the Community,
    If you are in the United States, does the Caller ID look like a (661) area code, and the text reads, Skype Caller?  If this is the case, this is a generic caller ID assigned by the local telephone system carriers when caller ID data, if any, is either corrupted or not available in the case the call originates from Skype.
    Here is a link to the FAQ library related to Caller ID and how to set your Skype account to read as you intend:

  • PDF version different than what shows in Metadata

    USUALLY, when I open the metadata of a pdf, the version shows in the first few characters (1.2, 1.3, 1.4, etc)
    %PDF-1.2%âãÏÓ
    I've come across a couple pdfs that SAY 1.4 in the metadata, but when opened with adobe reader they say pdf version 1.5! Which is correct? Is there a more efficient way to look for the pdf version?
    Here is an example:
    The metadata says version 1.4-
    %PDF-1.4%âãÏÓ14 0 obj<</Linearized 1/L 140724/O 16/E 131916/N 1/T 140412/H [ 452 172]>>endobj            
    But when I open in adobe, the version says 1.5- (Seen in Document Properties)
    Can someone help?

    The file can be tagged one thing and the pdf can conform to a different standard. Open the pdf file in a text editor (not a word processor), the first line should be a good indicator of what standard the file conforms to.

  • Iphone 3gs problem during sync: what is actually on the phone after sync is different than what shows is on the phone in iTunes

    What I synced my iPhone 3G S, it lost much of the music and podcasts (but not all). In iTunes on my Windows machine it shows that the phone has everything that it had on it before plus the new podcasts, playlist, and music I had tried to move to it. But, what is REALLY on the phone (i.e. that which I can access through playlists and my music/podcasts) is much less - with most of it missing. Additionally, for the new playlists I added, the playlist titles were added, but when I go to play them on my iPhone the playlist if totally empty, even when I access the iPhone's playlist when the iPhone is plugged in via iTunes it shows all the songs on the playlist. I've tried to reset the sync history, but that doesn't help. Has anyone else experienced this problem?  I'm hoping there is a solution other than resetting to factory settings.

    previous posts cover this in depth but 1 thing I haven't seen in the possible solutions Is the location of your music folder.
    I keep my music on a portable hard drive but after the upgrade my "iTunes media folder location" had defaulted to the c:/ drive
    select the actual music folder location and let your library update e- you can then sync !

  • Why is WB temperature way different than what's set in my camera?

    I did search for the topic before I posted and only one relevant post came up (in the last month) which moreless confirmed the same issue with a different camera.
    I shoot Olympus E1, so I dialed 7500K and fired a shot. Imported into Aperture and looking at WB scale and it reads 6186K. The image looks as if Aperture showed the image correctly, but the number is way off. 1300K difference??? So obviously if I move it to 7500 it will not be correct anymore because it will be rather 8800 in reality.
    Second thing I did right after, was to look at EXIF and sure enough Aperture showed no value in WB field.
    For a comparison purpose I looked at the shot in ACR and found out that the temperature was spot on. So this is not rather whether Olympus is hiding the value so it's difficult to retrieve, but rather how is Aperture coming up with so wrong figure.
    I am also curious how can Aperture get the image colored correctly if it cannot figure out the set WB value in camera properly.
    Puzzling to say the least and confusing possibly for processing work.
    Thanks
    Marek

    Hi Marek,
    There are a couple ways you can get white balance "right."
    1) You can shoot a grey card (or something like an ExpoDisc) in the field and then set the white balance of the camera onsite.
    2) You can shoot the same grey card onsite and leave the camera on AWB, and shoot everything. Then go back and eyedropper the grey card and batch change all your photos.
    #2 is quicker... but they both work equally well.
    But practically you will not "get it right" by setting the white balance to a preset in the field. "Daylight" at 5000K (or whatever the setting in your camera is), is a total WAG. The actual color temperature may be 4500K or 6300K in that setting -- you will have very little chance of getting it right by picking an auto setting. You COULD break out a spectropherometer and measure and find it is 5002K so use 5000K in camera, but again if Aperture came up with 4837 you'll still want to edit later.
    If you are "serious about your shooting" where "serious" means accurate, then you are going to be shooting indoors under controlled lighting conditions. You will also shoot with a full GMB card which has all the colors and tints and hues, so you can get absolutely correct colors (HELLO, FASHION AND ADVERTISING PHOTOGRAPHY). If you do landscape, then color temperature, as is contrast and a number of other things, is open to interpretation. When I was shooting with Seth Resnick in Antarctica a few weeks back, his rule of thumb was basically "Start at 6500K and warm it up from there." lol. Still, his images are beautiful.

  • AME Exported Videos show transparency differently than when viewed in Premiere Pro!

    This is kind of hard to explain but basically AME does not seem to treat 99% opaque as 99%...instead the exported file looks more like 90-95% opaque. If you have 2 clips (contrasting clips are easier to notice) on top of each other in Premiere and the top clip is at 99% opaque and the clip beneath it is at 100%, in Premiere you can hardly see the bottom clip, if at all. At 99%, that's how it should be. Just barely peeking through the top clip...
    BUT...
    If you export that clip using AME, the resulting clip will look completely different and it looks more like you had the top clip set at 90-95%. The lower clip is MUCH more visible. There is not "barely peeking through" like you see on Premiere. It appears that AME does not handle transparency well. For example if you cross dissolve two clips. It looks fine in Premiere but export it out to Bluray/DVD, etc. and all of a sudden, sometimes the beginnings and ends of the clip abruptly clip on or off as they fade into the clip. Again, it's like they go from 5% to 95% but miss out on the subtle start of 1-5% and the subtle ending of 95-99%.
    There is a thread about this in the Premiere section but I figured I'd toss it here since it seems Premiere handles/shows the transparency perfectly, but the issue arises when it's exported. To really define the point see the following clip that another user posted in that thread I just mentioned. Notice how the cross dissolves abruptly start and end sometimes. I noticed this in my exported videos too because I use LOTS of cross dissolves. It's easier to notice on more contrasted clips, but I think this illustrates the issue really well.
    https://vimeo.com/14536285
    Again, I just edited a project that had 2 clips stacked on top of each other and I accidentally had the top clip at 99%. I didn't even notice it in Premiere. You really cannot see the bottom layer peeking through...well, barely. But it's really subtle which makes sense because the top layer is at 99%. But on my exported Bluray/DVD...holy cow, it's VERY noticable! Almost as if the top clip were at 90%, not 99 (no exaggeration).
    I don't see a BUG Report for Adobe Media Encoder so I submitted a bug report in Premiere Pro.
    Can any one (staff preferably) address this issue please?

    Thanks for the response Todd. Is there a way to get around this GPU vs. CPU thing you mentioned? If not, is there a way to export from Premiere (to DVD/Bluray/Vimeo H.264) without using Adobe Media Encoder or export somehow so that dissolves and opacity changes are handled the same way that Premiere handles them so that the exported video doesn't look suddenly different? (I'm on a 2011 iMac with 16gb RAM and the AMD Radeon 6970M Graphics Processor) Basically, am I screwed and there's no current way having these issues with transparency that I mentioned above?
    Here, by the way, is the thread I mentioned that has to do with cross dissolves. I figured it was just an issue with that specific transition until I just now did this export with a 99% opaque clip on top of another clip and the resulting export looks more like an 85-90% opaque clip.

  • Quicktime export is different than what's in the timeline

    I'm editing a demo reel for an actor friend. One of the scenes is from a television show, but the scene she's in is not with any of the shows' more recognizable stars, so I wanted to put a little bit of the title sequence/music in front of it to make sure people knew what show it was. So I put about 3 seconds worth of it in. It looks great in the sequence, but when I do an export to quicktime (broadband medium) that title sequence is slightly askew... instead of the 3 second chunk that's clearly in the timeline, it's a 3-second chunk about 10 seconds prior to what is in the sequence. This is driving me insane. Any idea what could be causing this?
    Oh, I just upgraded to Studio 2, if that makes a difference.

    I thought of that too, but it was ripped from a (non-copy protected) DVD, and the title sequence is its own chapter. So of course, the little chunk I need to use is pretty much at the tail end... I don't have 10 seconds after it.
    Thanks for the suggestion, though!
