New to bt vision. need a question answered!

I always turn appliances such as tv. stereos etc off by mains as have a phobia of overheating. fires etc. but i would like to know with the new black bt vision box i got i see in book it says purple for standby and red for low mode. but when i turned it fully off in the red mode before i went to bed and in morning i turned it on its takes 3/4 mins to boot and start the tv and been told red light will not update etc. is this safe to do or will it effect my box keep having to reboot everytime i turn it back on. thanks

Well it is meant to be left on. It can take updates overnight and therefore not get in the way of the your viewing, it also keeps your EPG up to date.
Having said that if you really want to kep your phobia happy you would be as well switching it off at the mains because if you have switched off your Hub as well then no update will be delivered anyway.
As for damage to the box well who knows.......

  • Trying to redeem iTunes card told first time purchase on computer needs security question answered which I did not set up or know the answer to

    Trying to redeem iTunes card. Was told first time purchase needs security questions answered and don't remeber setting them up to start with and I have made several purchases before without answering questions. Getting no help from Apple support. How can I make new answers for new security questions.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • Thinking about purchasing a Macbook, but I need some questions answered

    Hey everybody,
    I got a response to my Craigslist ad, so it's looking like selling my iMac G5 and buying a new Macbook might actually happen. My only problem is that I have some questions about what to do with my money. I'm not a power user, or someone who really plays games (other than my Nintendo emulators) so I already know that a Macbook is the right computer for me.
    (1) I don't have external storage, so how should I go about transferring my stuff? Buying the Macbook before selling my iMac is not an option because I just don't have that much money. I've read that some people buy the Macbook and then upgrade the HD, using the 60 Gig that comes with it as their external storage by buying a $20 case for it. I have about 50 GB taken up on my iMac, so I'm going to probably need around 100 GB at least. I know upgrading the memory doesn't, but does upgrading the HD void the warranty? Any brand recommendations for HD's? Heat and noise are very important to me. (7200 RPM is out)
    (2) I never really used the Superdrive on my iMac, but it was nice to know it was there. Is the performance difference from 1.83 to 2Ghz noticeable? I hear it's not, but I also read that under Rosetta it matters. Since Office isn't universal yet, I'd like to know. Can anyone verify this?
    (3) I read on MacOSRumors that Leopard is probably going to do some nice little graphic effects when it's released, and that the next revision of the Macbook Core Duo will probably still have integrated graphics. Since I don't plan on doing this again for at least another year, do you think the Intel graphics will be enough to keep up for a little while?
    (4) Anybody have some experience with selling a computer on Craigslist? I'm smart enough to request cash, local buyers only, and have them meet me at my house to try the computer out. Any advice on how to make sure this runs smoothly? I might end up leaving some things on the computer for the buyer. Anything that I should make sure to delete (i.e. preferences, passwords, etc.?) A checklist of what I should remember to do would really help.
    I think that about covers all of it...Thanks in advance.

    I sold my computer on Craigslist. No problems. I think it's only really dodgy if you are buying one from there - then you should be very careful!
    I'm not sure exactly the best way to go about deleting your stuff, but you have the right idea: get rid of your preferences and passwords, and your internet history as well.
    I'm not sure how to look at 'Keychain', but you might want to make sure that this is empty.
    In terms of processor speed, I can't help you: I have just got the 2Ghz, but partly because not having a DVD burner isn't an option for me. As file sizes and your storage needs increase, your need for a DVD burner will probably increase as well.
    Leopard is not far away now, and I would guess that Apple would make sure that their new OS will work adequately on their new computers. I would be surprised if there is much of a noticeable difference in anything but the most graphics heavy applications. Could be wrong about this, but I think that the basic GUI will perform well on any MacBook.
    In terms of moving info from your iMac... the cheapest thing apart from buying the MacBook before you sell is borrowing a HD or iPod from a friend. 50G isn't THAT much info, you could always burn it to DVD-Rs in a pinch.

  • I am thinking about bying an ipad 3 32GB Wi-Fi only version in the US when i am on holiday there this April (2012) but i need some questions answered?

    does the warranty work in the Uk
    if i need to take it back cause its broken do i need to send it back to the US or can i take it into a store in the UK
    if i do need to get it send back to the US do i have to pay for it
    if the wrrenty is not worldwide can i buy worldwide warranty and for how much and where from
    does the ipad 32GB Wi-Fi only version work in the UK if bought in the US
    what problems does it have (e.g. does it charge in the uk, i know it overheats)
    i have already set up an account in the uk for my ipod so would i be able to just sign into my ipad with that account
    can i access itunes, music, app store, safari, youtube, mail and all the other apps with my UK account on my ipad
    where do you think i should buy it from and for what reason
    thanks for all the help

    does the warranty work in the Uk
    It's a world wide warranty from all I understand
    if i need to take it back cause its broken do i need to send it back to the US or can i take it into a store in the UK
    Take it local to get it fixed
    if i do need to get it send back to the US do i have to pay for it
    if the wrrenty is not worldwide can i buy worldwide warranty and for how much and where from
    see above
    does the ipad 32GB Wi-Fi only version work in the UK if bought in the US
    No reason it won't. All you need is a plug adapter
    what problems does it have (e.g. does it charge in the uk, i know it overheats)
    i have already set up an account in the uk for my ipod so would i be able to just sign into my ipad with that account
    can i access itunes, music, app store, safari, youtube, mail and all the other apps with my UK account on my ipad
    where do you think i should buy it from and for what reason
    Set it up with your existing iTunes account. If you are in the US when you set it up you may face some issues downloadinig (I've never experienced it but there do seem to be issues with people  trying to access iTunes outside of their 'home' area..

    Greetings;

Your help is greatly appreciated. If you are uncomfortable releasing your company's name that is fine. If you do not want to post the answers here, I can also be emailed at rmkraus"SAYNOTOSPAMBOTS"@asu.edu. Thank you!!
    The questions I have are:
    What is your experience with the manufacturing scheduling software?
    What is/was your role with the software?(ie buyer, consultant, user, technical support, etc)
    How do you feel about the software's ease of use?
    What training did you recieve or did your company offer?
    How much did implementing the software approxiamately cost?
    What do you feel are the advantages of the software?

    Any other insight that you would like to share?
    Thank you, I greatly appreciate your help.

    Im not sure on 5
    I know it's unusual, but if your project budget is
    good you may have more than one constructor. At least
    that's what I thoughtach.. you poor fellow, you are confused now aren't you.
    i bet taht in the fifth question they are talking about 'constructor methods', not procrammers who are constructing the code (or 'contractors')
    if your budget allws then you may even have three or 87 contractors, but that's not the case here.
    i hope that clarifies things a bit.
    and PS! i don't like when people intentionally give bad solutions to others.

  • Need this question answered...Helpp.

    Well my sound in my safari is not working anymore and also in games that i download from the internet. I'm wondering if there is a solution to this problem.
    Also i've had a problem with how slow my safari, foxfire, and other programs have been is there anyway to 'clean' out the computer or something so that its not so slow.
    Thank you.

    At this point I think you should get Applejack...
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
    After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, then when the prompt shows, type in...
    applejack AUTO
    Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
    At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
    The 5 things it does are...
    Correct any Disk problems.
    Repair Permissions.
    Clear out Cache Files.
    Repair/check several plist files.
    Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
    Sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files!

  • HT5312 I want to purchase an app on a new ipadbut i forgot my security question answers. I have saved a second email address in my apple id and would like to reset my security question,

    How can i reset my security questions for my apple ID.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate/secondary email address) set up on your account then go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - see if this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then try Apple ID Account Security
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

  • Laptop is magnetic. I need 3 questions answered. Is there telephone support?

    I have a few questions.1. Why is the outside of my Yoga notebook magantized?2. Why does it feel as if my notebook has an electrical charge?3. Why did my photo thumbnails turn from a photo to an icon? 

    I noticed the same. The outside is magnatized probably to hold the screen and bottom part together.
    I also noticed that the bottom of the laptop is magnatized, where the speakers are located. Could be the magnet from the speakers? (not sure)
    Notebook should not have electrical charge. Do you get static shocks?
    Are you standing/walking/sitting on carpeted floor?
    Unless you change the options in view the photo thumbnails should not change. You can go to View menu and change the view back to Medium Icons or thumbnails etc.
    Let me know if the responses are not clear.

  • How can I get Apple to send my iTunes security question answers to my new email?

    Originally, I had my Apple account set up to a gmail account. But then, I deleted my gmail and connected my account to my hotmail instead. I'm going to lose this laptop soon for a new laptop swapout, and this is the only device that lets me use my iTunes account. I don't remember my security question answers, so I have them emailed to me via "Manage my account". However, I fear that the answers may be being wrongly sent to the gmail account I deleted. I need this question answers soon, otherwise I will lose hundreds of dollars previously put into my iTunes. Please help!

  • Email set up questions   answer please, as if the person has no clue.. e.i. email set up for dummies

    Hello..  try'n to set up my email accounts on the phone..  had them all on it.. but I read them and delete from phone but they'd stay on email server..   have many questions, so please bear with me..
    1) How do you set up the emails and set the server incoming and outgoing settings,?   the emails are Comcast.net ,gmail.com and a yahoo (please note that the Comcast.net has the Xfinity connect app, but most likely won't be used as there are 3 emails and you can't switch between them in the app without signing in and out of each, so I'll have to set these up as separate emails and forgo the app. unless there is a way to switch between them without the sign in and out dance, Waiting on reply on that forum)
    2)  After the phone is receiving  the emails, how do you set it up so when you delete the email from the phone, it also deletes it from the email server, AND how do you remove emails from the phone that you don't want to delete from the email server?  i.e. you've read it,but will answer it/print it/ect from your pc at a later date but don't want the phone loaded down with tons of emails to scroll through..  that you've read..
    3)is there a way to give each email account it's own ring tone? to make it easier to know if it's from an account used for general junk, or the one used for bills, or the one used for my web forums, etc..
    I'm sure there are more questions  I'll have but can't think of at the moment..
    Thanks for reading and any insight on these questions.. and please remember,,  first phone that isn't a crackberry and have no clue on how to set it up correctly,, Hell when I had a Verizon.net email (Verizon DSL) even the manager at the Verizon wireless store couldn't get it to work correctly..  it took 2 trips and 4 hours..   so basicly I have never set up emails on this since.. and  need the questions answered with order of operations to set them up, and please include even the most basic parts of it, that would seem common knowledge, 

        I appreciate you taking the time to reach out! I know how important it is to have a clear understanding of the e-mail set up process on your device. I have provided a link that includes the incoming and outgoing server settings here, http://bit.ly/1jNi8nF . This link also provides instructions on how to complete the set up instructions for e-mail addresses. The way the e-mail is removed from the server depends on the type of account that is being set up IMAP or POP3. The server setting ( IMAP or POP3 ) is provided in the mail list provided in the link.

  • HT204088 I need help with my password I forgot the alternative email and securtity question answers

    I have an itunes account and my children keep charging my credit card .  I need to change my password but......
    I don't remember the alternative email address used and don't remember the security question answers.

    First off, all caps is considered shouting. Bad idea.
    As for your actual question -- a bit more information is required. Do you need to change the password for your user account? Your user account is what you login to when you turn on your computer. It might be setup so you don't have to enter your username and password when you boot up. It is set this way if you can turn it on, and when it's done starting, you see a desktop and dock and can use your programs. On the other hand, you might have to enter your username (either by typing or clicking on your icon) and then your password. After doing that you will be at the desktop.
    If you can't get to the desktop be, it means you aren't typing the password correctly. Passwords are case sensitive -- perhaps you just need to turn caps-lock off -- e.g., "PASSWORD" is not the same as "password" and if your password is set to something like the latter, typing the former will always fail. If you don't know the password, you can reset it by booting from the system install discs (put in system disc, hold down "c" while turning on the computer, ignore the open popup regarding installation, from the menu, choose the option for resetting the password, choose the user you wish to reset, and then enter a new password).
    On the other hand, if you get to your desktop and can use programs, the above is not your problem. Instead, you are having a problem loging into your mail account because you don't know your password. In that case, your only option is to contact the mail service provider and ask for your password. That issue has nothing to do with your operating system.

    Dear Apple Support ,
    This is ***Abdurrahman*** ,I can't remember my security question answers , so Please help me to Create new Security Question for my Account .
    Best wishes,

    The people on these boards aren't Apple Support and can't do that for you. You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
