Newbie with question about the $400 Deposit for FIOS TV Service

Okay, i was real happy when i found Fios is finally available in my area after years of waiting. I call to order and theysay i need to post a 400 dollar deposit for fios tv. I ask why and they say combination of poor credit and also the fact that the TV equipment as in the DVR boxes are very expensive and they just want security. Its fullt refundable after 1 year. However, to my suprise i was approved for FIOS Internet And Phone Service or Double freedom plan 20/5 internet and Freedom Phone plan both for $64 Dollars monthly 2 year guarantee. Also get the 100 dollars cash back in for of the debit card. My problem is that i dont need any verizon equipment for the Televisions as all my tvs in the home have tivo. All i need is the cablecard decoder which i am sure are considerably less expensive than the Home media dvr or regular dvr. Is there a way to get around this or am i stuck without fios tv until i put up the 400 dollars? Is there a higher power i can appeal to??

Thanks for the many previous replies..... I solved my problem by calling verizon and using my wifes maiden name. Now i will have all 3 fios services with no $400 dollar deposit.

Question about the Intel driver for the IDE controller

Greetings to all:
Lenovo has recently published another driver for the IDE controller and I wonder how many of you that have a T60, T60p, T61 and T61p have been able to actually install it.
My controller device is:
Intel(R) 82801GBM/GHM (ICH7-M Family) Serial ATA Storage Controller - 27C4,
both in XP-SP3 as in Vista SP1, 32bits versions ( see bellow details of my T60p, which has 2 hard drives)
Interestingly enough the driver on each is v:7.0.0.1020 (2005/05/23) for XP and v:6.0.6001.1800 (2006/06/21) for Vista-B. They are working well as far as I see, but now and several times before, I have tried to update them but they do not install. The message is that I have already the best driver. I noticed that the label of the controller is not quite exactly spell out in the instruction text file or the .inf, and the one that comes close, is that of the so call ICH7-M family.
Why is this? There are at least 7 versions discussed in the history. It it perhaps because the one for the ICH7-M family is always the same? System update does not install them either.
Forgive my curiosity but why bother publishing if they can not be installed? Or perhaps somebody has. This is not logical.
Cheers.

Solved!
Go to Solution.

For those who think I can not follow directions.
First, the driver for the Intel IDE device in a T60p is obviously from Intel. But there are two ways to get it fulfilled.
Lenovo publish the Intel drivers with perhaps there own twists, refinements and in the absence of clear contrary information, that they are perhaps more fine tuned to the machine. It uses the following inf files to have them install: iaahci.inf and iastor.inf. They are revised whenever Lenovo fell is necessary and eventually published.
I must assume they are in use if you have a Vista system originally installed by Lenovo and that is why those inf are the ones you find in the updates.
Mi T60p was purchased 2 years ago with XP-Pro, just before the release of Vista, with the understanding of a free upgrade to Vista-B shall be send when finally released. An Indeed they keep their word and send me a Lenovo branded full version of MS Vista-Business, some 4 months latter (not an image). Rather than upgrade XP-Pro and to avoid the time in limbo and work interruption of the Vista less desirable over XP, I did a successful clean install into a new hard drive, followed by a Lenovo system update, which changed many drivers and installed programs, etc. But as you might imagine, the Intel IDE-SATA driver installed is the one provided by MS (v:6.0.6001.1800 of 2006/06/21), (which uses a different installation file mshdc.inf) and, until proven otherwise, I must assume more generic, since it is for any and all machines, following the standard of the hard drive SATA type.
Talking to Lenovo support for nearly 1 1/2 hours last week, was at least not good for my blood pressure, while attempting to explain the issue and refuting a collections of nonsense from the support tech. Eventually a supervisor assure me that the driver was the same and that it has not change for a long time, as it is the same even for XP. Well, why bother with updates if that is the case? But I see that there are others IDE drivers species for animals such as Dell, or HP, etc. Thus you must accept that there is a strong case for a Lenovo modified Intel driver and thus the updates. Tech support could not answer such question, nor they were able to install version 8.6.0.1007 (date 2008/12/04) of the driver.
I fell the machine is working well, but have nothing to compare with (MS Experience Index 4.3). And as usually happened, sometimes you do not appreciate how sick you are, until you get cure. The question remains about the driver been generic and sufficient or specific and optimal.
Cheers and happy holidays.

Question about the new firmware for Zen Mi

Does the recent update for the Micro allow the user to use Zen Micro Media Explorer unlike the update from December?

You have to upgrade the Explorer version to the one that is enabled for "MTP" firmware, which can be downloaded for free from the creative download section. I'm using the beta firmware, and it works pretty well for me, and I like the autosync feature with WMP0.

Question about the S-bracket for 848P

I would like to connect 4 speakers and still have the Mic-In, and LineIn available in my computer. From reading the manual, it looks like I will need the optional S-bracket for my MSI 848P motherboard. Urghh, where do I get the MSI S-bracket?
My next question is: Can I connect the SOUT-R and SOUT-L pins to my front connections of my computer case? (it has connections for a mic and head phone). I tried it anyway, but could not get any sound to the head phone (played around with the speaker configuration without any success). Is there anything else I should do, or is it simply something I should not attempt?
Any help is appreciated.

The AC'97 Audio CODEC of MSI 848P is Realtek ALC655
Although it's AC'97 2.3 compatible and supports Front-Out, Surround-Out, MIC-In and LINE-In Jack Sensing
However, it doesn't support Universal Audio Jack (UAJ)
(While Realtek ALC658 supports!)
So I think the answer of your second question is: You can't.

Question about the Zagg InvisibleSHIELD for iPhone 4

Does it affect the clearness of the retina display screen on the iPhone 4? Also, does the maximum coverage cover the band that goes around the phone very well? Just trying to get a better feel for the Zqgg invisibleSHIELD.
Stephan

I just got the iPhone 4 and decided to compliment it with the InvisibleShield from Zagg, having the same shield on my iPod Touch and loved it. I went with the Max Coverage version which comes with front/back/sides coverage. I also picked up the Otterbox Defender case to go with it.
Since the Otterbox Defender fits the iPhone so snuggly, I was not able to keep the side shields on the iPhone, and even with the front and back shields in place it was tricky to make it fit properly into the case, but wasn't impossible, so I currently have the front/back shields on and the iPhone is in the Otterbox.
The problem: The protective shield on the Otterbox seems to stick to the InvisibleShield film and causes a pressed look. I am able to "unstick" the two shields by squeezing the sides of the Otterbox so that the Otterbox shield lifts away from InvisibleShield but this is hardly ideal, and a few touches later and I'm back to square one..I am tempted to just remove the InvisibleShield completely from the front...do I really need both shields anyway?? It would be nice to keep the InvisibleShield on though, for times where I may not have it in the Otterbox.
Has anyone experienced this issue and have a solution, aside from removing the InvisibleShield???

Question about the new battery for zen micro/ zen microph

i just reacently noticed that creative has a new bettery the?Li-Ion Battery (830mAh) for ZEN MICROPHOTO/ ZEN MICR0 on there website they say it gives longer battery lifeand i was wondering how true this could be because i would like to get more than 6 to 8 hours out of my zen micro

The Zen MicroPhoto uses more power than the Zen Micro would, so it has a better battery. But you can use this battery with the Zen Micro and it should last longer than your original battery.

Question about the setup page for WRT54G2

I haven't really tinkered much on my router since I had a friend installed mine a couple years back but I did remember him saying to check for updates on it's firmware once in a while. I did just that but I came at a rather confusing point in my update... namely I found that you can acceess the page by typing in 192.168.1.1 in thhe browser but before I found that I ran into this site first:
http://ui.linksys.com/files/BEFW11S4/v4/1.50.14/Administration.htm
I was somewhat confused as my settings werent being saved when I worked on the webpage mentioned above, so can anyone tell me if that site is part of the linksys setup page ?

that site is just a demonstration of what the Linksys router's administration page looks like. it's basically for instructional purposes only. anything you do on that page WILL NOT affect your router settings.
on the other hand, accessing http://192.168.1.1 will allow you to change your router's settings.

Newbie with question about mouse wheel button

Sorry in advance if this is too simple, but I'm trying to create an interactive website that requires scene switching by way of the mouse wheel button.
I'm creating mutliple interactive labeled images that I want to be able to scroll through by using the mouse wheel button but I don't know the action script code.
Any help?
Furna.

Hi Kglad I have a small query about your code correct me if I am wrong some where. You used following lines to
create movie clip,
set focus on it,
and add event listener to it.
the lines are
var tl:MovieClip = this
stage.focus = tl
tl.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_WHEEL,f);
Now say I have a button on stage and I click it once. the focus will change to the button. and hence we will have to set the focus again to tl after processing button click. am I correct on this?
we can alternatively use
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_WHEEL,f);
which will always listen to the scroll event no matter where the focus is, or is there some problem which might occur due to this?

About the voice recorder for E72

I have several questions about the voice recorders for E72
1. The default recorder in E72 can only recorder 60min each time. Sometime I want to recorder a lecture. It stoped automaticly at 1 hr. I am wondering whether I can change the record time longer.
2. Another thing about the default recorder is that it can not recorder in background (When it is recording, you can not do anything else, can not touch any keys). The problem is that if you touched some keys during recording, it will stop recording. This is annoying.
3. I heard that "Total Recall Call Recorder" can record in background. I tried the trial verson. I found that it seems not compatible with other audio apps, such as FM radio, music player, and vedio player. Is it right? When I start recording with Total Recall Call Recorder, I can not use FM radio, music player, and vedio player. This means that Total Recall can not record sound from FM radio. Right?
4. I tried the trial version of Ultimate Voice Recorder, and found it can record sound from FM radio. If you use Ultimate Voice Recorder to record a phone call, is there any beep?
Thank you very much!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Other companies should be coming out with products like this shortly. Some companies have said their product (a voice recorder) would be out in the beginning of april.
I don't remember the link though, so try searching google or the discussions for 5G iPod Voice Recorder

Hi I Have A Prepaid SmartPhone Right Now With Verizon For About 7-Months So Far. I Have Always Paid On Time No Missed Payments Good Standing Account, I Tried To Switch Over To A 2-Year Contract With Verizon And They Wanted A $400 Deposit For Only 1-Line.

Hi I Have A Prepaid Smart Phone Right Now With Verizon For About 7-Months So Far. I Have Always Paid On Time No Missed Payments Good Standing Account, I Tried To Switch Over To A 2-Year Contract With Verizon And They Wanted A $400 Deposit For Only 1-Line. Is There Anyway I Can Use My Excellent Payment History With There Prepaid Department To Switch To A 2-Year Contract And Not Have To Pay The $400 Deposit. And This Is Due To The Fact I Have No Credit History Whatsoever

Since you have no credit history, my guess is you would need at least a year of on time payments, and I'm not sure a pre-paid account would qualify as you can stop at any time.
You didn't specify your age, but getting started int he credit world is not easy - you may try applying for a gas card, or a credit card, and USE them, pay them off each month - and expect to take a year or more to establish a record.

Question about the ability of Genius Bar to help with outside software...

Hi I wasn't sure where to put this, but here's my question. I'm having a problem with the Sims 2 on my Macbook and I was wondering if I go to the Genius Bar will they be able to help me or are they strictly hands off when it's not a direct Apple product?
Also, I bought an external hard drive in the Apple Store but it's not an Apple branded product. If I'm having a problem with that, can I go to the Apple Store?

If it's a question about the installation, system requirements or compatibility with your MacBook, the Mac Genius can probably help. If you're having some kind of issue while using the Sims 2, you'll probably have to contact .
The same is true with the hard drive. If you need some help getting it connected or even formatted, they can probably help. However, if it's not powering up or you're losing files or some kind of operational issue with the hard drive after it's connected, they'll probably refer you to the manufacturer.
Usually Apple can't support other vendors' products. Someone here may be able to give you some more advice, since none of us work for Apple. There may be someone here who's already had the same issue with the Sims.

Thank you for your help in advance.
