My thoughts, ?s, experiences with my new zvm:60 after having a 30gb for 5hrs pr

This is my first post here. I am a forum user so Ill try not to be a troll. I did get done pouring over the threads here for hrs too.
So I went shopping for my first media player a while ago. I read all the reviews I could on every player known to man (CC is a great retail web site to get reviews and the bay). Well the Zen:M seemed to take the cake as the best player for a demanding seasoned tech user. And really just plain over all.
So I bought a 30gb player from a private online seller (you can guess) and after getting it up and running found all the reviews to be true. Infact I even loved it more than I anticipated. However my experience was cut short. I had finished using the player, turned it off (it fully shut itself down), placed it in my coat pocket and draped the coat over a chair when it suddenly fell out of my coat onto a hard wood floor. Now the unit was in a thin silicon skin and could not have fallen more than 2ft (more like ft) and that was all folks. Dead as a door nail. No power up, no ?help me? when connected to the comp, no rest button, nothing. All it did when connected was flash the power/hold button charge light abnormally fast with a clicking sound? Huh? I think the battery somehow came disconnected. ?To anyone reading this, are all these fine players this sensiti've to vibration? Yeah I know its a HD player, and no one wants to see their player dropped, so is this the norm?
Which brings me to my new ZVM60. Love it. The only difference I notice, other than the size (getting to that) is it seems the touch sensor is slightly more sensiti've. Great, I like that! Now the size. It should be noted that as of now this 60gb player is WIDELY mis-documented as being the same size as the 30gb. Infact a well known web retailer I bought this from is a culprit of this also. I also bought an extended 2 yr warrantee after this past incident. However Im having a real hard time finding a skin or case for it. The leather one doesnt appeal to me sorry. I searched the threads here and am finding nothing. Anything new come around since? Id love to get a ToughSkin for it but am not holding my breath. I dont mind having a player that by all standards is a TANK. Just let me protect my tank. On that note, anyone know why the 60gb is bigger? I thought all PCMCIA HDs were the same size.
Lastly, Im using this player with a properly maintained XP computer with WMP0. I rip all my store bought CDs at 28 in WMA. This and some ripped vinyl is how the player is primarily used. Am I missing anything? Also the player has firmware ver .0.04 , is it worth updating? Im kinda leary to update having been around BIOS flashing nightmares back in the day. Will I loose all my data doing a firm update? Also, I dont know if anyone out there is doing this but I heard the newer Alpine car stereos can work with a bare bone external HD filled with audio files. I got that info from a few reliable sources. Anyone doing this and know what file format these heads are compatible with? Id rather not have to keep my Zen in the car if I dont have to risk it. Also any takes on how Im doing things here are more than welcome.
So in conclusion I love my Zen. Id simply like a good skin to protect it with?? The GF has a coughPOD video, will see what she thinks of this not so little guy. Also will keep all up to date on any findings I have. Please do the same.

I will check out the web site. On that note thanks for it. However, as stated in the thread, the 60gb, EVER SO SAD, is a bit thicker than the 30gb. Im really praying some skins come out. Ive been playing with this player all night long. ON THAT NOTE, people complaining and having issues with the bass. I know where you are coming from. However a semi solution can be had with playing with the vol limiter in combo with the bass boost func and the custom EQ. Im sure this is no news flash to most techies out there. However being an audiofool (aka audiophile) and knowing a little about the hardware involved in all this. I have a really bad feeling, and bad track record of being right on this when Id rather not be, that this is infact an OP-AMP issue and power dedication issue too the afore mentioned. Firmware or not, you play with bass boost and EQ and there is no way to get this player to dedicate enough KICK, as its been termed here, to the headphones without distortion. I think this may be WHY there hasnt been a working firmware fix to this issue. I think some may not realize, as the old analogy goes, a chain is only as stong as its weakest link, and I have a BAD feeling that the OP-AMP is that link holding this fine player back. No bad feeling to those in the design depo. I know how cost concerns go and who those who dont know JACK dictate construction. Im sure you all tried your hardest to design the best player on the market. You suceeded in all regard IMO. Creative may be making some SERIOUS mistakes by not properly supporting their prodigy birth but dont give up on designing some killer players for us who do notice and infact buy. We buyers who do infact know and buy what is really best rely on you R&D and Designers out there, who I hope somehow read these threads, or get a heads up now and then, that we praise you and thank you for doing what no others out there do, by designing a player that really does meet the expections of the small market that has a brain and appreciates what you do. A small thanx to those that really matter. Keep up the good work! You do infact matter in an age where real genius gets overlooked. Dave?

Hi Fabian,
Is there any error code when user access their mailbox on OWA. Please confirm if there is no results returned in EMS when you run Get-OWAVirtualDirectory cmdlet. Also check whether there is any Event Logs related to OWA in Exchange.
In IIS manager, make sure the OWA virtual directory is listed in the Default Web Site. In EMC, we can navigate to Server Configuration > Client Access, select server and turn to Outlook Web App tab. Then we can click Reset Virtual Directory in the right
Actions pane to reset OWA virtual directory.
Additionally, please restart IIS service by running iisreset /noforce from a Command Prompt window.

Cannot activate my computer with my Adobe ID after having activated my ebook reader

I cannot activate my computer with my Adobe ID after having activated my ebook reader with the same ID. I get the error message: "You cannot authorize this computer with an Adobe ID that was previously used to authorize another compuer or moblie device". Shouldn't it be possible to use the same ID on more than just one device? I would like to read the same book on my ebook reader and on my computer.

Unfortunately, you de-authorized your computer but NOT your items.
Once a book is accessed on one ID, it cannot be used on another ID.
I am afraid you may be stuck ... if you are lucky the vendors will give you a second chance.
~~~
This is a vicious trap that Adobe lays for unsuspecting customers.
When you register 'without ID', ADE creates an anonymous/implicit ID with limited powers (eg can't be used to share with other devices).
Whenever you first load a DRM book, that copy of the book is associated with whatever ID the computer is registered to at the time.
Any book you load while this anonymous ID is active gets associated with that ID, and can't be read on any other device.
When you properly register your computer with a real ID, that old anonymous ID is lost.
Now you don't have any devices that can read the book.
I think that even if you de-authorize again and revert to anynomous authorization, it will be a different anonymous ID, but worth a try.
Not helpful for you if reverting to anonymous doesn't help, but general comment that might help other readers .....
The only way I know round this is to use a DRM stripper such as epubee BEFORE you deauthorize the device.
I do NOT advocate using such code to get around the valid limitations placed on a DRM book.
However, where the problem arises only because of the ineptness of Adobe's ADEPT DRM infrastructure and its implementation,
such a measure is totally justifiable.

My Experiences With My New 17" MBP

Well, I got my brand new MacBook Pro on Friday, and now that I've had the weekend to play with it, I thought I'd let everyone know how I feel about it.
The box came to my house on Friday afternoon, unfortunately right after it was dropped off, I had to run off to work, so no playing for me the time, and I had to endure possibly the longest-seeming work shift of my life. I got home after, and tore that box open and had everything set up and plugged in within 5 minutes. I was stunned as to how big 17" widescreen actually is. It's a thing of pure beauty. I booted it up, got into OS X no problem, and was ready to roll.
First thing I did were the software updates. I didn't want to risk installing programs then having a firmware update or anything like that cause some problems. So I did that, fair amount of things downloaded and installed, and was ready to get started. First thing I did was hook my old PC up with my new lappy and start transferring things over. Setting up the connection in OS X was easy as pie. I copied about 20GB of mp3s in to iTunes fairly quickly. I then imported my photography into iPhoto. I was shocked at how fast it was able to process everything, and within about 20 minutes I had 1350 photos imported and organized. I then opened up Mac Mail and imported all my old emails from Thunderbird on my PC, which took a while (I have a -lot- of emails).
After moving things over, I downloaded Adium so I could hop online and brag about my new toy to others, and installed Firefox (That's one thing I wasn't going to leave behind). I wanted to see how the DVD quality fares, so I slapped in my Final Fantasy: Advent Children DVD, as it has pretty sharp images and some scenes with sharp color contrasts. It looked absolutely beautiful. As did Lost. Content with that, I just decided to surf the net for a while. After that, I installed Boot Camp and Windows XP.
I wanted to really test the machine, so after installing WinXP, I booted in and installed both Oblivion and Battlefield 2. I am pleased to say that both run beautifully. I'm still tweaking graphics settings on Oblivion (I have to tinker with settings in the high to very high range) to get the best out of it, but BF2 I could just crank everything to max and play. Fantastic. The screen also does these games justice, each game looking how you can tell the developers wanted their games to.
Over the past few days I've played a lot in OS X, and I'm very quickly becoming accustomed to it and loving it. I'm having some XTerm problems, but I'm working with the network administrator of the network I'm trying to operate off of to get that ironed out. iLife integration is fantastic, and all in all the computer is enjoyable to use. It runs fantastic, the screen is gorgeous (some of my photos I hardly recognized they were so much richer and detailed!), and while being productive, I can still take a break and play some new games.
I do have a few qualms though. The first is the whine. Now I'm used to a noisy PC, so it doesn't bother me that much. But just as my reffing background has trained me, it's the inconsistency of it that bothers me. Running off the battery, it's non-existant. Off AC, it's there...unless you're doing something semi-processer intensive. In WinXP...it's not there. So it seems to me that it's definately something software/firmware-related, and seems likely that we could hope for a fix somewhere in the near future. It's not nearly bad enough that I would want to return or exchange my computer, though. The second is the heat. Now, it doesn't bother me -that- much. When I'm surfing the net, checking email, chatting on Adium, and listening to music, the case gets warm. Nothing I would consider hot. If I do it for a couple hours, the top 1/3 of the case becomes what I would consider "hot"...you can touch it, but if you weren't expecting it to be hot, you'd involutarally pull away. When I'm playing games for any more than a half hour or so, it scortches. I literally can't put my finger on the strip for more than a second or two. Luckly, I don't need to touch that strip. It does make me feel some concern for the components inside my lappy though.
I strongly feel, though, that these issues can be fixed or improved through firmware. The heat during games is understandable as I'm using the video card in graphically intense games. I may open up my case and see if I have half a tube of thermal paste in there, and reapply it if needed, as I -know- that it will reduce the amount of heat and have no detriment to the life of my components. If Apple would just tell me that as it stands now, the temperature of my lappy while playing games was well within specs for the components, I'd have no worries. For now, it'll nag me in the back of my mind.
None of these "problems", however, are anywhere near severe enough to consider returning this laptop. It is an absolutely fantastic piece of equipment. It's stylish, -fast-, has an excellent display, and comes with a fantastic array of preinstalled software that is actually useful. I look forward to using this laptop for years to come.

I previously had this problem on two 15" MBPs and fixed it on both by downing the following:
1.) Install 10.4.6 update
2.) Delete system keychain entry and any login keychain entries for the wireless network
3.) Go back to System Preferences -> Network and re-enter the login and password for the network.
Since then they have both reconnected to the network automatically with no problem. Before that I had the same symptoms you describe.
Thanks for replying. The issue that I have to go
through with my 15" is that whenever it sleeps or I
reboot I have to turn off Airport, turn it back on,
find my wireless network and reconnect. The guy I
talked to at the Apple store told me that was normal,
but I have never had to do that with other laptops I
have owned nor do I need to do that when I boot into
XP using boot camp. <shrug> Just wondered if that was
common to all MBP's, just the 15 or just mine hehe.

How to change unlinked subreport with a newer version without having to delete and recreate in the main report?

I am using crystal reports version 11 and have inherited a report with 5 sub reports. Here we version the each report that contains changes. Is there a way that I can change the pointer for the sub report to the latest version? The person who gave me these reports stated that he deleted the old sub report and inserted the new sub report. The issue with doing this is you lose all you positioning and have to perform these tasks again. This seems like a lot of work especially if the upgrade to the sub report was only cosmetic. If I could update the link with the new report name it would make things easier.
Appreciate any assistance and thank you

I had a similar situation where i had 4 different main reports that has 20 sub reports each.
Best steps i figured out to keep track is:
1- I do not create a sub report on the fly. (origanlly- sub reports were built by "create a sub report with the report wizard"
so First i save all the sub-reports independently, and gave them corresponding name to their data fetch.
On inserting report as a sub report i used the option "Choose an Existing Report"
2- Since i had 4 different report, i created 4 seprate folders for each report. And then Sub folders for Sub reports.
3- Any changes in the sub report would have a different copy, and saved with the date stamp. In summary info, Comments section, I will type the update detail.
For Formatting changes alone:
I create a fake group inside the report and drop a Text box. The box would have comments about the formatting and suppressed (only to seen at design mode).
Hope this helps.

How do I sync my Ipod with a new Itunes after losing my old Itunes when my hard drive went out?

I had my itunes on one of my few computers that I have. The hard drive on the computer that I had my itunes on went out and I had to replace it, losing my itunes and other things, but I cared more about the itunes then I did with anything else. Now when I try to download itunes and try to sync my ipod, it says that if I sync it, all music with be replaced, and I don't want that. How do I sync my ipod to that new itunes without losing all my songs?

Need to delete the old page number from a combined file and replace it with the new number. is there a way for me to do that using JavaScipt

is there a way of using JS to delete the old page number (1,3,32,78) on a combined PDF and inset it with a new page numbers (1,2,3,4) Thank you

Depends. If the page numbers can be located by their location on the page then a script can be written to redact that area, and then add new page numbers in their place (or somewhere else).

Problem with printing and scanning after updating to Mavericks for my Photosmart C7180

After updating my macbook pro (mid 2009) to Mavericks, I have found that I can only scan to a jpeg2000 and cannot scan as a tiff or jpeg or anyother format. I have followed instructions on troubleshooting and have not been able to make anything work ie scanning from preview etc. I have now uninstalled all the HP software and tried to load it again but software update will not recognise that I do not have the software for my printer. What do I do now?

Hello Cyd23, welcome to the forums!
I understand you're having issues with scanning since you upgraded to Mavericks. I have looked into this concern for you and found that there is no downloadable driver with the full feature software (scanning software) included for the Photosmart C7180 and Mavericks.
However, there are work around options for scanning that may help and work!
Please see this link for the other methods: OS X v10.9 Mavericks: Installing and Using the Printer on a Mac
I hope that helps!

My experience with Tiger/new Powerbook 15", 1.67 ghz

Apple proclaims "Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger. The world’s most advanced operating system."
Well, that hasn't been the case in my experience.
I bought a new 15 Powerbook HR, 1.67 ghz, 1.5 gb ram, 80gb hd on 11/4/05 (from MacMall). At this point I have about 20gb free.
Problems I have noticed with it/OSX.(Most have been fixed by an archive and install done a few weeks ago.) Here's my trial by fire.
In chronological order
- trackpad lags
- many icons not correct after using Migration Assistant.
- some icons open up the wrong applications
- window resize button on Finder, and some app windows, doesn't open window to full screen. Also doesn't open window so that scroll bars disappear.
- dragging a file up or down a window in list view doesn't always make the window scroll up or down when I go up or down to the top or bottom edges. When they do move, it races. Smooth scrolling has no effect.
- CDr recorded on a machine with OSX 10.3.9 shows up as a recordable CD!
- screen dims when I disconnect power supply
-Network option from the Go menu does nothing.
- Doing a Get Info on a html file has Internet Explorer as the app to open when the files have Mozilla icons
- icon for some apps have wrong application logo on them
- screen dims and brightens rapidly, disconcertingly in low light. I turn off the ambient light adjustment on the monitors control panel. This is poorly implemented. Having the keys light up is nice though.
- can't reset F7 key to take pictures of screen. (I eventually am able to do it.)
- the clicker gives me a sharp pain in my arm from the second day of use. This has gotten better now but I was worried I might be getting carpal tunnel/repetitive stress injury. (This happened when I got my new Powerbook Firewire too, eventually going away.) The clickers are too stiff when new.
- I call Applecare. They don't have my registration information I gave them when I signed up on the web. We reset the Power Manger.
- Quicktime movies have no sound. I later throw out the LAME stuff (Component and Framework) and get sound back.
- I go to Genius at Apple Store. They tell me I am using a non-native resolution, that is why I am having screen dimming. (Wrong. It was the ambient light control.) They also say whatever software I have installed is likely to be causing most of the other problems.
- I get Finder freeze #1
- Preview does not animate gifs. It did with 10.3.9.
-System sounds do not work. Upon reboot they do. Flakey.
- some finder windows are not opening up with the item count in list view.
-desktop gets rearranged
-occasionally keyboard turns letters into numbers as if number lock is on. It isn't. The it will stop working altogether. Rebooting cures this. (Happens twice before I call AppleCare.)
- call AppleCare. They have my old address when I bought the Powerbook! I get registered again.I cannot install GarageBand, which I threw out thinking I didn't need it, because the install DVDs that came with my machine have an error reading the software only package. They will send me a new install disk #1.
- scrolling is not smooth, races.
- I notice the memory door has 3 out of the 4 screws loose. I tighten them. The battery door feels a little loose too but that is unfixable.
- keyboard doesn't respond #3
- I call AppleCare. They have the wrong address still in their database!
-eject DVD does not work. (It works all other times.)
- system freeze #2
- kernal panic #1
- Call AppleCare. My TechTool Deluxe CD will not boot. I ask for a replacement. (I can't believe they are still using TechTool Deluxe. I remember what a hassle it was trying to get a working disc with my Powerbook Firewire.
- keyboard types wrong characters #4
-Print preview does not work. (it does all other times.)
-Preference for video capture program (BTV) is not remembered
- audio is only heard when BTV is running (since fixed.)
- system freeze #3
- keyboard stops working #5
- I call Apple Care. We zap P-ram 3X.
- file sizes incorrect in list view. Have to open window a second time to get correct info.
- install DVD #1 arrives. It is defective.
- system freeze #4
- I update to 10.4.4. I hope this will cure the problems. Nope.
- Help doesn't work.
- Battery firmware update process works but isn't smooth. It crashes "unexpectedly" as I check to make sure it is really done. (It kept telling me I needed to do it.)
- Help works.
- boot takes forever after 10.4.4 update.
- battery firmware update wants to run again.
- file size is wrong in finder list view windows.
- keyboard stops working #6
- fan stops yet processor is still VERY busy as I am calibrating battery. Charge is about 5%.
- I quit IMovie, It then says it quit "unexpectedly". (This happens with other apps still.)
- I have to use power key to wake it from sleep, as I calibrate battery.
- keyboard problem #7
- system freeze # 5
- text editing in iDVD is very buggy. Cursor is impossible to see against background with many themes. There is no way to increase cursor size.
- AppleCare says they have sent TechTool Deluxe CD. I haven't gotten it yet.
- I receive install disk #1. 2 actually. I install software bundle only. It works! I also reinstall CPU help files. Help still doesn't work.
- I archive and install. (It installs 10.4.2 so I update to 10.4.4), Help doesn't work.
- Help works without my having done anything. OK.
- I repair a gazillion permissions. (funny how when you install the system software the permissions then need to be repaired. You would think the system would know to set the permissions correctly upon installation.
- I notice the order of the right hand menu items has changed (clock, keyboard setup, OS 9 icon...)
- file sizes wrong in list view
- BTV has audio loop at times. (See thread on Topic "New Powerbook Audio Stutter / Looping / Echo problem in Using your PowerBook G4 15-inch Aluminum forum.)
- keyboard problem #8
- keyboard problem #9
- I call AppleCare. TechTool Deluxe CD has still not arrived. We discuss other problems. I get hung up on.
-keyboard problem #10
- I go to Apple Store. Talk to the genius. He tells me the system software is "a house of cards", adding other software can cause unpredictable results. He zaps P-ram 3x, does something in open firmware. Recommends a clean install. I think about it and later decide not to.
- I lose system sounds after I install USBVison video capture driver for Tiger. I eventually get it back.
- I repair LOTS of permissions.
- The fan starts to make bad noise.
- system freeze $6
- I do a Get Info on a file I making with BTV. The OS tells me it is 11GB. I stop the recording and then I check again. It says it is 1.5 gb.
-iChat won't open. It starts, according to Activity Monitor, runs for about two seconds and then disappears.
- Network, under the Go menu, does nothing.
- I call AppleCare.
- I notice cursor disappears in Firefox.
- Yahoo IM icon keeps getting moved. All the icons it is next to are spaced about the same but this one keeps getting moved.
- I Stuff some stuff. The fan keeps running, it is still hot after I am finished. I have to reboot to get things back to normal.
- Some icons for PING files on my desktop have changed from having Preview icons to Quicktime icons. I use Get Info to change them back from Picture Viewer (OS 9!)
- the fan comes on with only my normal apps running (Eudora, Firefox, Yahoo IM)
Ok, that is about all up 'til now. I still haven't gotten my TechTool Deluxe CD but need to give that a few more days. I now have 8 install DVDs. (Another install #1 came yesterday, making a total of 6 #1, and 2 #2s) The address on the invoices are finally correct, most had the wrong town but the right zip code which I had corrected many times.
The problems that are still recurring are the keyboard problem, applications still sometimes crash "unexpectedly" even though I am quitting them, the file sizes are not right the first time around in finder list view windows. Most everything else was cured by the archive and install. Little weirdnesses still crop up though. I am not sure if the echo problem has been fixed. (Mac OS) Help is still slow to appear.
Thanks for bearing with me. I do hope things get smoother in the future. I have been using Macs for about 10 years now, starting with a used SE and 7.something, going to a refurbished LC 580 and 7.5.5, a new Powerbook Firewire and 9.2.2. I have also used 10.3.9 which seemed to be a lot more stable than 10.4.

If it was me I would backup to DVD/ External HD if you have and erase / reinstall OSX.
Update all and once you are finished without the user folder / any of your files on torture the Pbook to see if this happens again.
This likely will be able to give you an idea about hardware or software problems.
If all is well , likely not then copy "COPY" over from the backup you "ONLY COPY" documents, music, Photo's, desktop stuff and also place programs back in Applications folder.
The reason for the above is that in the /user/"you"/library folder it stores the settings for Icon's, prefferences to programs and some other useless stuff + E-mails for either Mac Mail and or Microrubish Entorture "entourage" depending on what you have or used also Itunes prefs.
Once this is copied leave the "/user/you/library" stuff alone and see how it runs.
App's/programs will ask to have it's preferences set again as if /when you have installed it for the first time.
Likely most of the issues if software was in the/becuase of the settings in "/user/you/library".
If this solves a lot of problems the go with care and copy the "E-MAIL +/OR ENTORUTE/ENTOURAGE + ITUNES" to the same place as where they came from but obviously in /user/you/library/ subfolders etc. same subfolders.
For Entorture search for a file called "database" as this holds all the e-mail for entourage and by copying it, when you next open Entorture it will pick-up all emails + adresses etc like it was never moved also in the same spot as it was in the new instalation / subfolders etc..
If all this fails and you as close to what I reccomended here, there is then still some issues then likely it is hardware related.
How do I know this : Had for 5 times in 365 days had my Pbook in for repair so I have had to about 120+ times had to reinstall OSX 10.3.9 and/or Tiger.
I hope this helps as for hardware I am buying Alienware or Extreme as they can upgrade the cpuvideobasically all else except the motherboard " amd opteron 64 dualcore + Nvidia fx quadro 1400 + 1 or 2 hd's + 1/2 dvd's etc. etc. $2500"

Has anyone had experience with the new moire slider under the adjustment brush in LR4?

There's a new moire removal tool under the adjustment brush in LR4. In the near future I expect to have photos that contain moire patterns. Has anyone used this tool yet? I'd like to get an inkling as to how effective it is.

There is an example of moiré on the Nikon Imaging site for the D800E.

I was able to reduce the moiré significantly, but not eliminate it with the Lightroom 4 adjustment brush. I haven't found any software solutions that can completely repair moiré. The Lightroom 4 feature seems about as good as any I've tried.

Is the Siri only available on the 4s? I thought it came with the new iOS5 software?

need help using Siri after update to iOS5, anyone got any ideas?

Siri is only available for the iPhone 4S. Siri App on previous models have been discontinued and no longer works. If Siri is important to you then you will have to get the iPhone 4S. It is built into the iphone 4S.

Very Bad Experience with EDGE Program, Trying to get a resolution for 2 Months

This is long winded but a lot has happened in two months. My wife and I are both on the Edge program. When she initially signed up for the program she got the Iphone 5. She ended up having some technical problems with the screen on her phone so she took it to an Apple store. The Apple representative replaced the phone for her and this is where all of our problems started. A couple months later she was eligible to “Edge Up.” She decided to do that when the newest Iphone came out. She got the Iphone 6 and sent her old phone back just like she was supposed to. The phone was sent back to her because Verizon said it wasn’t the original phone. She called Verizon and explained what happened and was instructed to resend the phone, which she did. We didn’t hear any more about it until our October 27th bill was $398.51 higher than it should have been. They charged us as if we never returned the phone.
We called Verizon a couple times and finally on November 8th a ticket ([removed]) was filed. At that time the representative told us she would follow up within the next couple days but she didn’t. During the ensuing month we made close to 15 inquiries (THAT IS NOT AN EXAGGERATION) with Verizon customer service. During the first 3 or 4 calls we were told that the refund should be coming soon and to be patient. After that the representatives would ask some new questions but mostly ones that we answered on previous calls. The representatives would say they’d have to do some investigating and would give us a call back in a couple days. With the exception of one time, they never did so my wife or I would call Verizon back. Each time we’d be connected to a different person so we would have to repeat the same story and answer repetitive questions. Before we would get off the phone we would ask to make sure the account notes were updated in hopes that we wouldn’t have to keep explaining ourselves.
We were becoming very frustrated over the whole situation. It bothered us that they weren’t getting back to us, that each time we called we had to tell the same information and mostly because we weren’t getting any answers about our four hundred dollars.
Finally about a WHOLE MONTH after the original ticket was filed, on December 5th I finally spoke to a Representative (JP) that was helpful. Apparently, the ticket was stalled because the Verizon Rep either put incorrect or inadequate information on the ticket. She was able to track it down with the USPS tracking number. That frustrated us further because we couldn’t understand why she was able to find this out but why none of the other people could. She was going to look into this further and gave me an email address so I wouldn’t have to keep talking to new people.
We have emailed back in forth many times since December 5th. After the third submission of the ticket by JP, some warehouse in TX has confirmed they received my wife’s phone but I still don’t have a refund. I don’t know what to do!!! At this point I am beyond frustrated. I actually feel a little helpless. This has gone on for over two months. My wife and I have literally spent hours on the phone with Verizon. I haven’t heard from JP since before Christmas. I never would have before but I am considering another wireless company. Can anyone on here help me or point me to someone that can? For anyone that is currently considering the edge program I would think twice.
If anyone is willing to help or has any ideas please let me know.

It seems as if you have done all that should be expected of you. I have seen where exchanging the phone at an Apple store has caused this type of problem when performing an Edge Up when the Apple employee who makes the exchange does not file the proper paperwork in order to have this reflected in Verizon's records.
I would try contacting the area president for your location or possibly the person in charge of national customer service. The following site has information about Verizon Wireless leadership with a method to make contact. Simply click on the "View Profile" link on the person in question and at the bottom of the page should be a contact line.
I would relate your story to one of these executives and am confident they will have the fortitude to help you out in a timely fashion.
Good luck.

Can no one help? Sync'ing iPhone with a new computer after crash on old PC

Hi all,
I'm hoping any lack of response was because you were taking time off at Christmas and not that I defeated the best of the bests.
Hopefully your reply is simply a case of saying 'YES!' to the steps below.
Here's a sort of potted timeline history as to what has occurred:
My iPhone 3GS was backed up via sync to 2 different location PCs.
The main location was here at 'home' where I managed my Music Library and Apps on a Vista based laptop.
My 'Work' PC simply dealt with sync of Contacts with a folder in Outlook.
The home PC was backed up fully typically once a fortnight.
A few weeks ago, my home PC had a catastrophic failure and it is clear I can't recover from the HDD.
I restored the key folders from the backup to a 'from backup' folder on the new PC and not the same folder structure as it has Windows 7.
From this folder I moved the entire contents of my music folder into Windows 7's music folder (and there is a sub-folder in there called 'itunes').
So, after reading a couple of threads, bizarrely enough, this one on iPad seems the nearest scenario to mine http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11527315
user, 'virtualgeo' summarises neatly the steps of sync'ing so I guess this would figure the same here but with an iPhone?
I'veinstalled the latest iTunes on my new PC and I'm ecstatic to see all my music and apps appear on running up iTunes for the first time.
I've gone to Edit>Preferences>Devices and checked the box next to "Prevent your iPod from automatically syncing" (However I see no previous backups being shown in this window. Is it worth recovering this from my backup?)
I've also authorised the new computer successfully.
So I was going to continue following virtualgeo's steps in the thread but not sync'ing contacts if that looks sensible?
Anything else I should do before connecting my iPhone to iTunes?
And out of interest, should I be backing up my iTunes separately to my PC backup?
Many thanks in advance!

Well I forget the exact keys, but believe pressing and holding down CTRL before clicking Restore will allow you to browse and find the backup file (may be wrong).
In the end, as far as the iPhone thinks, it is a new computer so it will erase and resync stuff and as long as you loaded everything back into iTunes all should sync back. Main issue is other stuff like the data within the apps, notes, etc that are part of the backup which is why you would want to try to restore from the backup. If you don't mind losing data in apps (eg: do you care you have to relog into some apps and start over, don't care about game scores, etc) then you don't have to worry about the backup. If you have important data in some of those apps then you will need to restore from the backup.
