No red focus confirmation light on my 3 month old 60D. Checked customs functions, HELP

Hi guys. Title pretty much says it all. Picked my 60D up today and noticed that it will focus (I get the beep), but no focus confirmation (the red square) through the viewfinder. I have tripled checked all settings, cleared custom functions, made sure my CfN III was set to 0 or ON. I'm in one shot mode, using autofocus. PLEASE HELP! Is there a such thing as AF-OFF? I saw this mentioned elsewhere but not on my 60D menus. The photos seem sharp and in focus, just no confirmation for me on the viewfinder. Any advice??

It sounds like you've hit all the major things to check:
In AI Servo mode the AF point will never flash to confirm a focus lock like it will in One Shot mode -- AI Servo mode is continuously focusing.
C Fn. III -3 (Superimposed Display) needs to be set to '0' (on) which is the default.
The beep and the red-light are normally tied together (unless you disable the beeping). If you get a beep, the selected AF point will normally flash at the same time. e.g. if you were in "AI Servo" mode (instead of "One Shot" mode) then you would not get an audible beep or the red AF point flash to indicate which point is focused. The fact that you get the beep indicates you are in the right mode and it's confirming... but you should ALSO get the red flash unless you disabled it via C Fn. III -3 set to 1.
You could try clearing all custom functions and resetting the camera back to factory default state, but if that doesn't work, I suspect it needs service.

X Through battery icon, no LED light on MagSafe, 2 month old Macbook Pro

This all started this afternoon. I noticed a black X through the battery icon in the upper tool bar, then noticed that there was no LED light on the MagSafe charger. The fan on my computer was also constantly running. This computer is only TWO months old. Since day one I have run the battery down before re-charging. This should have properly calibrated the battery.
Is there some simple fix for this or do I have to take time out of my life during the holiday season, trek to the mall and pray that someone at the genius bar has time to resolve this issue? Hoping there is a saint here somewhere to help me out

MamaGG:
Call Apple Care (800) 275-2272.
Your computer is warranted for 1 year for Hardware and for 3 mos, I believe, for free phone tech support.
They may have you take it to the Apple Store near you for the "genius" to work on it.
Have you Serial Number handy. Locate it from the "Apple Icon" drop down menu on the left and side of the upper title Bar and open up "About this Mac" and open up "more info" and then "Hardware".
They have the best support in the industry.
Meanwhile consider getting the Apple Care Add on package for the MB Pro. It extends this Hardware coverage for 3 years and provides free Apple Care Phone Tech support for that time.
I have had it on all my Macs which I have owned. The phone support is well worth it.

Canon 6D Question about focus confirmation for manual focus lenses

I am very interested in the 6D. I own the 5D2 and concerning IQ there won't be much difference. But the loud and shaky shutter of the 5D2, the silent mode of the 6D respectively, lower weight, better ISO and smaller size would make the 6D a better camera. If I could have wished I wanted an even more purist and smaller 6D, no video, wifi and gps, however.
But I have a QUESTION: Will there be a focus confirmation on the focus points like the red confirmation flash there is with the 5D2? I like to shoot eg. with my small 40mm Voigtlander Ultron manual focus lens (just an excellent lens btw) and therefore highly appreciate this focus confirmation feature. If somebody already knows the answer, this would be very nice, thanks!
I got the impression Canon disadvantages manual focus lenses on their bodies, especially with the 5D3's new autofocus system (which is superb for autofocus lenses). Therefore I wish Canon would offer a reduced to the max fullframe body for manual focus shooters (what is a real passion for a growing number of photographers). Manual focus shooters need interchangeable focusing screens, focus confirmation on the focus point and live view. I guess Canon could be successfull with such a camera: the Canon IQ, especially the colors are excellent, the handling of a Canon is better than other brands, the overall package one gets with Canon is very good. There are so many outstandig MF lenses from Zeiss over Voigtlander to vintage lenses with adapters that are seeking the best FF body. And DSLR's are better than mirrorless cams but need to become smaller to make the size advantage of mirrorless cams irrelevant.
Thanks for reading, Dave.

The Canon 6D arrived today in Switzerland. The focus confirmation shows on the focus point and works well with Zeiss glass. We get the same focus finetuning like we had in the 5D2, what is important to align our Zeiss lenses. Besides, this is a nicely thought out camera. Smaller than one would expect from the factsheet numbers. The silent shutter mode is great. And there was a Hasselblad / Canon 6D comparison (beautyshooting), where I could not see a difference between the two on one of these big EIZO screens. The 6D is a reasonable camera, no show off factor. Better consider the 6D instead of the 5D3 if you are not a pro.

Focus assist light wont turn off

This is the second time this has happene d and I am really frustrated. I placed my new Nokia 1020 in an arm carrier while at the gym and at the end of the workout, the focus assist light was on and I could not turn it off. The pressure of the spandex sleeve must have cuased some buttons to be pressed in some odd series or something.
To solve the problem I performed a soft reset, a hard reset, let the battery completely run out, and the light was still on. I finally gave up and returned it to the store for a replacement. I got a new phone and had the same problem occur today. So it is my fault for making the same mistake twice, but I had a Nokia 920 for two years and placed in the same carrier hundreds of times with no problem.
Does anyone know how i can resolve this? I really love my Nokia phone, but am going to abandon the platform if this does not get resolved easily. My wireless carrier is a nightmare to deal with on issues like this. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Same happened to my sons Lumia. The light was on for 6 months until he finally smashed it up at a party (accidentally). And the problem was due to moisture. Happened when he was camping.

Lumia 1020 focus assist light wont turn off

lumia 1020 focus assist light wont turn off. i've done a hard reset and a soft reset. ive also drained the battery but the little round light continues to be turned on .
i checked and it looks like ive still got warranty from nokia. will they still honour the warranty if ive updates the software?

I have the same problem, I tested everything, hard reset, soft reset, using recovery tool to back to Cyan version, still the light is ON.. what is tyhe problem, it is ridicolous that Microsoft/ Nokia do not give an answer to this problem as many users have the same problem........

Hi, alekswithkz. Just to verify, when you say hard reset, do you mean: Settings>About>Reset? If yes, you can try to download and use the Nokia Software Recovery Tool before considering sending the phone for repair.

Note: The link is from Nokia US. If you are in another country, feel free to download the app from your local Nokia website.
If the issue remains, it's best to have it examined by an authorized Nokia technician. This will also determine if the repair will be covered under warranty. Warranty period starts on the date of purchase. Please bring your receipt for warranty verification.

Just purchased an iPhone5 and can not pair my Plantronics Voyager Pro HD. I can't get a flashing red/blue signal light.

Just purchased an iPhone5 and can not pair my Plantronics Voyager Pro HD. I can't get a flashing red/blue signal light.

Did you press and hold the power button until the LED flashes alternating red/blue - you may have to hold it for quite a few seconds. If the LED is not flashing red/blue, then it is not in pairing mode, and I would then call Plantronics tech support as their manual has nothing else to offer (I have the same headset, but I had no problem pairing with my iPhone 5 when I upgraded from my iPhone 4).
In the USA, call 1-866-363-2583 for Plantronics.

Form validation Red focus ring - good data

In the Quick Starts - Validating data, the last example shows
"Best Practices" for validation. I just have one issue. If you tab
off the input to get the error indicator and then click on the box
you get a RED focus ring around the input box. When you correct the
data to pass validation you can see the red line of the box goes
normal, but the focus ring stays RED. How can I get the focus ring
to switch to the normal blue WITHOUT tabbing off the input?

Thank you john for your reply,
With your advice, I can validate strictly at the level of data form data items, as InfoProducer events of these types:
Change events
Validation events
But How to validate at the level of my Business Components ??
When I do
oracle.dacf.control.NavigationManager.getNavigationManager().getFocusedControl().getComponent().transferFocus()
The validation goes to the BC level. But when I
oracle.dacf.control.NavigationManager.getNavigationManager().validateFocusedControl()
I can only validate at the level of data form data items.
So how to programatically validate a data form AND the binded BC Entity (who will maybe thrown an oracle.jbo.JboException).
Thank you

I tried to activate my new iphone 5 through itunes without a sim card, and my mac air crashed. red and green lights were both flashing but I can't get the computer to power on

I purchased a used iphone 5 on ebay which a.) had no sim card, and b.) still had a passlock code. tried to activeat the phone via itunesbut as soon as I plugged the phone into the mac, the red and green lights began flashing the the computer then shut down, and will not power back up. Any suggestions??

Return the defective phone to the seller, and hope that it didn't burn out your logic board. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to find out whether it did.

Seagate FreeAgent Go is making a clicking sound and the light is rapidly blinking. My Macbook is no longer recognizing it. Is there any way to fix it or recover my files? The SeaAgent is less than a month old!

Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
Or at least recover the lost data?
Thanks!

How to fix: the drive is in warranty, so contact Seagate for a replacement.
How to recover your data: Do you have backups? (If not, you really, really, should.)
You can try downloading Data Rescue, which will run in trial mode and let you know if the data is recoverable. (You can then choose to purchase the full version if it works for you.) A clicking drive, though, is usually (though not always) a sign that the drive cannot be recovered.
