New to FIOS & want Direct TV back
What's the deal with the closed captions which appear for less than a second on programs that have been recorded? Direct TV was never a problem and for those of us that are hearing impaired this is a tremendous loss of function with FIOS.
Is there any way to delete a program while watching it? Again, Direct TV was so easy to use. With FIOS, it seems I have to go back to the DVR menu and then relocate the program I was watching which means opening up every recording to see which one is marked "resume" so I know which one to delete. What a hassle.
Why can't there be a "first aired" date as Direct TV has? The only choices seem to be record all shows and then guess which one is new to me or record only first run shows. I want to be able to see some reruns, but not have to open every one to see if I recognize it.
Thanks for any suggestions.
1) Closed Captions: I don't understand what you are saying. If I record a program that does have closed captions, I can view them just fine when I play that program. I am not hearing impaired (yet) so I normally have closed captions turned off, but when I hit the CC button (the * on the remote) to cycle through the various options, the captions do appear and remain on the screen and seem to match the dialog. Of course not every program has closed captions, but those that do seem to display just fine for me on my DVR. Which Verizon DVR do you have?
2) Delete a program while watching it: I don't understand your issue here either. While I am watching a recorded program I just hit the Stop button on the remote and I am always given several choices, one of which is Delete. You don't get that?
3) first aired date: you are right, it would be nice. This is just part of the terrible Guide data that Verizon gets, or doesn't get, from their data provider, FYI Television, Inc. Lots of people have been complaining about the inaccurate and incomplete Guide data for a long time, so far no visible progress, but Eric Rabe in his blog here has said that they are looking into the issue.

Set up iPhone 4 as new, but now want to go back to most recent backup in iTunes
Is erase and install the best way to do to this? And will the backups on iTunes always be available for me to choose. What if I try my phone as a 'new' phone for a week, then want to restore back to the last back up I did before I made it new? Will it always be there?
Unfortunately Apple products are very product specific. Ever notice how you can't exchange music via cable on a friends iPhone? It's the same blocking system that is used to block transferring data between two iPhones on a single computer. So, unfortunately you won't be able to retrieve the SMS messages you've lost. Sorry

If i selected to "Create a new backup" and then canceled that option but want to go back and select "Inherit backup history"; how do I go back and do that since now when I plug in my external hard drive, that option doesn't appear anymore?? Any Help? I bought a MacBook Air, but decided to return it for the newest model, and I wanted to back it up so that I can then back it up on my new MacBook Air. I didn't understand the option to Inherit or start a new back up, and therefore selected the option to create a new backup. I believe I should have selected to Inherit backup history so that when i back it up on the new MackBook Air, it appears the same as the one I'm returning.... Is there anyway that i can re-select the option to Inherit backup history for time machine?
Thanks for sharing this link.

How do I move music imported from my old CD collection onto my iPod, which I did not retain on my old PC as there was not enough memory. I no longer have all the CDs so cannot import them to my new PC, so want to copy them directly off my iPod Classic to my new PC.
How do I do that?
ThanksYou cannot do it (transfer song files from iPod to computer) using iTunes, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store (and you can also re-download previous purchases using the iTunes Store Purchased screen).
However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can be used to transfer from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
Once the song files are on your new computer's hard drive, drag them (or the folder containing the files) to the iTunes window to add them to your new computer's iTunes library. -
I just bought a new iPhone and accidentally backed it up with my old iPhone backup, I do not want this. I lost everything on my new phone and I need it back. PLEASE HELP! This includes pictures and texts, etc.
So just to be clear, when you say "just bought" how long ago was that? Is it on this new iPhone that you had pictures, texts, etc that you want? Were you backing up to iCloud or onto iTunes?
This may not help for everything but if you go to iCloud.com and log in, are you able to find your pictures there? -
Hi guys...I have just got a new computer and want to get my library back up and running on it. However I seem to be missing some of my iTunes music purchases. Any ideas on how to get them back? They show up on my ipad but not my actual itunes account.
Hello there, Capricious13.
There are great pointers in the following Knowledge Base article. Depending on where you see the content and where you want to get it to, this should guide you to putting it in the right place:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

i had to get a new iphone and want to know how to tell if my pictures from my previous phone were backed up on itunes. when i connect to itunes, does it automatically sync / backup even if i'm going from a 4 w/IOS 6 to a 5S w/IOS 7?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes you can probably delete the 2 incomplete back ups they are unlikely to work.
However, I'd be inclined to back up to a computer as well and restore from there, if you are changing your phone. -
I want to go back to Firefox 3.6. I just downloaded and installed Firefox 4 and it looks alien and hostile to me. I am not computer literate and do not want to have to learn a whole lot of new navigational skills, having just had brain surgery. Firefox 3.6 was performing adequately and I mistakenly thought an "upgrade" would provide something that would be easier, not harder, to use. I guess I was just being naive.
How to I get rid of Firefox 4 and go back to the latest edition of Firefox 3?I see a lot of people talking about how to make 4 LOOK like 3.6..big deal...I want it to BEHAVE like 3.6...like not taking up 2 gigs of RAM if I leave it open more than 90 minutes.

I just downloaded the new 8.0 version of Firefox, but all of my extra tabs, auto fill, Google search tool bar, etc, etc, are gone and I want them back!!
How do I reverse back to the last version of Firefox?
I tried "RESTORE" to the day before on my computer, but that did not put everything back.
How can I get these things back??
Thanx,
C.Hey,
There are a lot of benefits to running the latest version of Firefox. You should consider [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/feedback leaving feedback] for the developers so that they can continue to improve the product. If you are just having trouble finding things, you go to ''Firefox > Options > Menu bar''. This will give you a more familiar feel by enabling all of the menu items you are used to. You should also check out this article on [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/common-questions-after-upgrading-firefox-36 common questions after upgrading]. It will explain all of the UI changes. Everything is still there, it's just been moved around a bit.
If you still want to roll back to a previous version of Firefox, just take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]].
Hopefully this helps! -
I plugged in the iphone 5 to PC via itunes what should i do between Set up as new iphone or Restore from this back up? i just want to transfer all my purchased apps and contacts to my new iphone? don't want to screw thing up. Please help..... thanks
Is this a new iPhone?
If so, when connecting a new iPhone to iTunes for the first time that has been used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the new iPhone, or set up the new iPhone as a new iPhone.
If you don't want to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device, select set up as a new iPhone. No existing data or settings will be erased or changed when selecting as a new iPhone. Not that difficult or difficult at all. -
I thought as a consumer, Apple works for us. Had I known what I'd lose by upgrading, I would have thought twice!!! I want Front Row BACK!!! also what is this new playlist that was auto added when I upgraded? It's called iTunes Artwork screen?
Think the iTunes artwork playlist is for a new screensave they put in where if you click the album artwork it plays the song.

I want to restore my new ipad to my old ipads back up, but the back up is not listed in the drop down menu.
OK, report back once it is done even if it works so that others with similar problems can find solutions.

I accidentally create a new event on an old event, now i want to get back my old event's editing. What should i do?
The files that weren't inside the media folder on the original machine need to be copied over to exactly the same paths as they had on the source machine. See this thread for an ongoing discussion of a similar problem. See also this post on migrating the iTunes library.

Whenever I open a new tab, it opens aol.com. I want to go back to the thumbnails.
See also this article about the New Tab page (about:newtab):
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/new-tab-page-show-hide-and-customize-top-sites
If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
You can use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
