New US local number is a shame

I just purchased a skype local NYC number to use it from Pakistan tonigh. Immediately after that I subscribed to International unlimited worldwide trial package .. And I dont have any credits on my account only the trial subscription.
When someone calls me, I see them calling but when I attend I hear no voice.. neither my callers hear anything...
Similarly when I make a call, the bell ting ting ting rings but when seconds begin to be counted, there is a complete silence.
I was not expecting such a low standard from skype..
I even tried to test the call features to check my mic, speaker, internet etc.. but all is working..
then I tried to talk to the agents but it kept me waiting forever and I was not able to reach any customer service agent.

Didn't save me from what I think are design stupidities, but the upgrade was flawless.
Yup, like changing folders to also open within the same folder when you double click a subfolder, instead of opening in a new folder. Never had to do that without holding the Option key before. So why weren't users given an option to choose? As you note, it's not a bug, but a feature change/loss many users don't like.
I'm way off topic here, but I agree with the OP's sentiments, not because I've found 10.9.3 to be buggy - actually it is one of the cleaner major upgrades I've encountered. It is "a shame" for the continued iOSification of OSX and if I understand yesterday's "keynote" we are looking at more in 10.10. I regularly send feedback to Apple - never acknowledged - protesting the gratuituous and seemingly irrational changes in the interface particularly as the user is (1) not told (2) given no options. I really need to do creative work and a $5K iPad just won't make it for me.
To the OP, I don't do user switching so haven't seen the issue you're facing. Is it critical to your work to use this feature?

I only got dial tone but can't dial local number

Hi All,
We are upgrading our existing Cisco 3640 router with two nm-2v's with three e&m voice cards) to Cisco 3725 router from the central site( running configuration attached). The remote site uses the same 3640 router.
Before the migration, our VoIP connection from two sites works fine. Both sites used Cisco 3640(two nm-2v's and three e&m voice cards).
After we migrated the central site to Cisco 3725 router( one nm-2v installed with two e&m voice cards) using the same parameters on the Cisco 3640 router, we can only get a dial tone to the remote site but can't connect to the local number. We are using IOS Voice on the Cisco 3725 router(central site) version 12.3(8)T3.
Attached are the running configuration for the Cisco3640 and Cisco3725 router.
During the migration we have verified that the Analog E&M Hardware is recognized by the Router using the IOS Voice software by issuing the show version command .
We have also verified that all voice ports are active and verified the E&M signaling type, Audio implementation, Start dial supervision and dial method by issuing the show voice port command. The show voice port command was issued after configuring all the parameters mentioned. This parameters are based on the current config of the Cisco 3640 router to communicate to the PBX.
We have assumed the wiring arrangement between the PBX and the voice gateway(Cisco router) to be OK, since it is already running using the Cisco 3640 router.
We have also verified that the Cisco 3725 router is communicating with the PBX. By issuing the "debug vpm signal command", the supervision signaling or the on-hook/off-hook signals are being transmitted between the PBX and the router by lifting the phone handset and dialing the extension number of the remote site. But we only got a dial tone but could not dial the local number.
We have checked if the Cisco 3725 router is sending and receiving digits to and from the PBX or if the address information (DTMF digits or Pulse Dial) is being passed between both ends by issuing the "debug vtsp dsp command". But unfortunately the router debugging output shows no signs of digits being send and received between the two devices.
With this, are there any issues that we need to consider on the cisco 3725 before migration? Our data connection and dial-up for remote users works fine. Only the VoIP link to the remote site.
Hope you can provide inputs on this problem.
Thanks,
udimpas

Ok thanks. I did try the online help. Initially got a very helpful young women who then transfered me to a thoroughly unhelpful man who just said i should wait for the engineer and there was nothing they could do.
Well the engineers turned up mid morning on friday. Turns out the dial tone i was getting was the previous owner's line that had been blocked when they left. the engineers attached a new bt box, then had to go to the exchange to connect my number, then back to my flat to test. all sorted but seems totally unneccesary. shouldn't this have all happened as part of the activation process and not involved me taking a half days holiday..oh well

How to add a new column (Project Number) in the action items table under NPD Module?

There are two projects with same name and created by same person in NPD.
So when it is displayed in "Action Items" table, It looks similar.
To avoid this, I need one more column (Project Number) to be added in the "Action Items" table and " Strategic briefs and projects" table.
So, How to add a new column (Project Number) in the "Action Items" table and " Strategic briefs and projects" table under NPD Module?

How to pick a local number?

When I signed up for skype number it gave me an area code that was on the other side of the state and that was the only option. Is that common?

1. You can sign-up for the unlimited US/Canada subscription for 2.99 a month, unless a year plan is offered that would be approx. 36 dollars a year. If you have a subscription the price per year for an online number (if they have one available) is reduced to 30 dollars. This makes the total cost 66 dollars a year.
If you have a free account and dial an 800 number they cannot return your call, if they try the random number that displays on their end, it won't go through to you or anybody. You can always verify a cell phone via SMS as your caller ID, that way if someone wants to return your call, they could reach you on your cell phone (Your cellphone appears in their display when you Skype call them)
2. If Skype doesn't have an online number in your area code. There is nothing you can do. You can just check from time to time to see if one becomes available.
3. I got my local number and ensured my family could reach me locally without it costing them anything extra. When I had a landline it was also good to know I wouldn't be charged any additional money by my telco f I chose to test call myself.
4. Try to buy a Skype online number, if there is one available in your area, you will be able to purchase it. You can still see the list of numbers without buying them.
5. A Skype online number is a phone number people can reach you at. It allows people with normal phones to call your computer without having to have Skype installed. Otherwise people can only reach you via a computer using the Skype client.

New Document Address Number

Hi All-
We are on SRM 5.0, SP6 Ext classic scenario. Every time we create a Shopping cart with an existing Ship to Address number, the system generates a new document address number in SRM even though the address number and the address already exist in SRM.
I am not sure if this happens standard in SRM 5.0 or is it due to some custom development on our system. I am aware that this was an old Issue and there were OSS notes related to it:
Note 570543 - Creation of document addresses
Note 718206 - Copy template: New address number for delivery address
Can somebody confirm if they are seeing the same behaviour on their SRM 5.0 system? If yes, i can go ahead and create an OSS message and keep you guys updated.
Thanks,
Sundeep

Hi Sundeep,
We are using SRM 5.0 , SP7 and it is not creating new address number whenever we create new shopping cart.
But it is creating new address numbers whenever some changes were made to the business partners.

Local number in Mexico

I have set up my local number in Mexico (just updated where I am and the US numbers "transformed" intro local Mexican nuumbers), but when I call the local number (or numbers) it is always busy . I am in Queretaro and dialed local skype number with and without the area code (442) and always busy... Any idea why?

These are Direct Dial #s. You can just click on the # and get straight through to your contact so each contact has a dedicated #. They are free.
TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac
If my advice helped to fix your issue please mark it as a solution to help others.
Please note that I generally don't respond to unsolicited Private Messages. Thank you.

Just bought CC, LR5 won't accept new CC serial number

I just purchased CC and downloaded LR5 but it won't accept my new CC serial number, and will only let me continue with the trial version of the software. Help?
I am also encountering a Download Error warning under the Apps tab on Creative Cloud desktop. Hitting the "reload applications" button just re-loads the error message.
I am on a Mac 10.8.3.
Thank you!

Thanks Dave, that had been my understanding too, but then in trying to resolve the Download Error problem I had come across something that suggested I might need a serial number. I'll ignore that and focus on the Download Error! I guess I'd better post that in a new thread though unless you have any ideas about that? I tried downloading and installing LR5 from the Adobe site itself instead of through CC desktop but that didn't help: the first time I tried to open LR5 it said it had to be opened by AAM, which then produced the Download Error message again. The second time I attempted to open the software (and every attempt since) it asks me for a serial number. A computer restart hasn't helped.

HT1918 payment processing is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later whenever i put my new card's number

payment processing is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later whenever i put my new card's number
can anyone please tell me what am i doing wrong?

I just did this and it worked for me after a frustrating hour (sorry about your 24 hours):
1) Make sure you are using the latest version of iTunes. It can be downloaded free of charge at the Apple website: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download
2) Open iTunes.
3) From the Store menu, choose Sign In.
4) Enter your account name and password then click Sign In.
5) From the Store menu, choose View My Account.
6) On your Apple Account Information page, click Edit Payment Information.
7) On the Edit Payment Information page, select the None radio button to completely remove all your credit card info.
8) Click Done, and then click Done again.
9) From the Store menu, choose Sign Out and then close iTunes completely.
Once you have removed your credit card info, follow these steps:
1) Using your web browser, go to the My Apple ID page at: http://appleid.apple.com/
2) If the site is not displayed in your preferred language, click the Change Language link in the upper-right corner, type the name of your language in the field that appears, then click the Save button.
3) Click the "Manage your account" link.
4) Type your iTunes Store account name (which is your Apple ID) in the Apple ID field, type your password in the password field, then click the Sign In button.
5) Click "Addresses" in the left column.
6) Edit your addresses and make sure the appropriate state is selected for all of them, then click the Save Changes button at the bottom. 7) Next, click "Phone Numbers" in the left column.
7) Ensure your phone numbers are formatted correctly (i.e. the area code is correctly typed into the area code field).
8) Click the Save Changes button.
After you have updated your billing and shipping address, follow these last steps:
1) Open your web browser, and navigate to the Apple Store Online: http://store.apple.com
2) At the main window, choose the option to Review Your Account.
3) Log in with your iTunes Store account name using the same password you use in the iTunes Store.
4) At the Your Account screen, choose the Change Account Information option on that screen.
5) Enter your credit card billing information, including the shipping address information.
6) Choose the proper county for your address. Click continue. Your account will then be updated, and a pre-authorization amount will temporarily be charged to your credit card (which will be automatically removed). Once your account is updated, close your web browser.
7) Launch iTunes. Your iTunes Store account should work normally.

Elise,
Please modify your post and this time around, instead of showing the code as text, click the button in the header that has a "<>" in it to use the Code Block tool. Select VB from the combo, the paste your code there, then finally post it
here. It'll be a lot easier to read that way. :)
Also though, please indicate which line is showing the compile error.
Do you have Option Strict set to On? You should if not.
Still lost in code, just at a little higher level.
