Not a question, a comment.

The latest Mountain Lion update (10.8.4) downloaded via the App Store bricked my Macbook Pro.  I'm restoring from Time Machine. Sure wish these updates were tested more thoroughly before release.

I have updated all five of mine with the 10.8.4 Combo updater, as well as four others for family. No problems at all. I would suggest you have issues with your Mac that were evident before you updated. But without details on your Mac and your actual issues, we have nothing to go on.

  • The DATA CAP MEGA THREAD....post data cap questions or comments here.

    In the interest of keeping things orderly....This is the DATA CAP MEGA THREAD....post data cap questions or comments here.
    Please keep it civil.
    Comcast is testing usage plans (AKA "data caps") in certain markets.
    The markets that are currently testing usage plans are:
    Nashville, Tennessee market: 300 GB per month and additional gigabytes in increments/blocks ( e.g., $10.00 per 50 GB ). 
    Tucson, Arizona market: Economy Plus through Performance tiers receive 300 GB. Those customers subscribed to the Blast! Internet tier receive 350 GB; Extreme 50 customers receive 450 GB; Extreme 105 customers receive 600 GB. Additional gigabytes in increments/blocks of 50 GB for $10.00 each in the event the customer exceeds their included data amount. 
    Huntsville and Mobile, Alabama; Atlanta, Augusta and Savannah, Georgia; Central Kentucky; Maine; Jackson, Mississippi; Knoxville and Memphis, Tennessee and Charleston, South Carolina: 300 GB per month and additional gigabytes in increments/blocks ( e.g., $10.00 per 50 GB ) Economy Plus customers have the option of enrolling in the Flexible-Data plan.
    Fresno, California, Economy Plus customers also have the option of enrolling in the Flexible-Data plan.
    - If you live outside of these markets you ARE NOT currently subject to a data plan.
    - Comcast DOES NOT THROTTLE your speed if you exceed your usage limits.
    - You can check out the Data Usage Plan FAQ for more information.
     

    I just got a call today that I reached my 300GB limit for the month.  I called and got a pretty rude response from the security and data usage department.  The guy told me in so many words that if I do not like or agree with the policy that I should feel free to find another service provider.!!! I tried to explain that we watch Netflix and XFinity on-demand alot and I was told that that can not be anywhere close to the data usage. I checked my router and watching a "super HD, dolby 5.1" TV show on Netflix will average about 5-6 GB per hour (1.6MB/s) ... sp this means that I can only watch no more than 1-2 Super HD TV shows a day via Netflix before I run out of my data usage.    This seems a bit redicilous doesn't it? Maybe the TV ads about the higher speed than the competition should be accompanied with "as long as you don't use it too often"   Not a good experience ...

    Wow, that's an interesting one - seems as though the sharedCursorPane has
    some hard requirement that the base App be mx (this isn't terribly
    surprising, considering it was built with the mx components, but it's still
    a bug). Can you link against the source code (provided for player 10 now!),
    and change that line in sharedCursorPane :
    From :
    Application(mx.core.Application.application).stage.removeEventListener(Mouse
    Event.MOUSE_MOVE, onMouseMove);
    To :
    stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, onMouseMove);
    and see if that works for you? I can't honestly tell why we're using the
    line that was there... It's possible this was a workaround for another
    issue. Anyhow, if you wouldn't mind being the guinea pig for this one, we
    can get to the bottom of it.
      thanks!

  • Its not a question, but i just hope someone from apple can read this, i just wish you can make a card just like itunes card, for ipad wi-fi card. would be convenience.

    its not a question, but i just hope someone from apple can read this, i just wish you can make a card just like itunes card, for ipad wi-fi card. would be convenience.

    That's why he gave you the link to make the suggestion.
    But returning to your proposal ... Apple does not sell any of the "wifi" connections. It would be up to providers of service to sell giftcards, and perhaps Boingo or some of other airport-commercial WiFi firms do. I can't think of any other place I've been asked to pay for WiFi.
    Now Verizon and AT&T, as well as other providers in other countries, could sell Gift Cards... and again, perhaps they do, but you'll have to check with them or make the suggestions there. It's really not an Apple issue, as they don't sell or provide any connections, just the hardware to make them.

     every negative experience is an opportinity to learn.   deleting or moderating these experiences would be turning away the chance to learn.   as long as users follow the participation rules, we allow even the most negative posts to remain. 
    as you said, forums are inherently negative by nature as users typically come here to solve a problem.   those of us who try to solve the problems are in the minority.   we certainly appreciate users such as yourself who voluntarily return to the forum to help out, especially those who initially came here to solve a problem themselves.

    SAPRUPGM is the program to correct the notes. we have run the same but no use....
    Please suggest how to correct...
    Regards,

    We have resetted the note with question mark. After resttig it was disappeared from SPAU,but we got some sytax problem due the note... After the patch upgrade we have reverted the code to the previous verion. Again the same note is coming in the SPAU but already we have crossed the SPAU phase in Upgrade..
    Regards,

  • Feedback, NOT a question

    Not a question, this is general feedback (and no email available to direct it to):
    PLEASE do not force download McAfee Security Blahblahblah when I am merely updating to the latest version of Flash.  I don't agree to it, you don't install it.
    'Kay?  Thanks.

    Don't use the GUI updater. Download the Adobe Flash Player "offline" installer directly by clicking one of the following links.
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
    Nothing in those but the Flash Player. Bookmark them. They stay the same even when the version updates.
    M'kay?

    Looks like updates via the App. store update option is not working again. Comments?

    There are a number of other threads from people reporting a problem with a blank Updates tab in the App Store app - it looks like there is a problem at Apple's end which they need to fix.
    Some posts are suggesting that you if you go into the Purchased tab in the App Store app you might be able to update the apps from there, though you will need to scroll through the list to find those with updates and individually update them.

  • Have Comments about Windows 7? (Part 4 - Do not post questions in this thread)

    To all forum users:
    Please use this thread to note any comments that you have about Windows 7. Do not use this thread for any specific question or issue that you are having - it is just for comments or feedback. For questions/issues that require an answer, create a new thread.
    PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS THREAD TO DISCUSS WINDOWS 7 BETA OR WINDOWS 7 RC.
    This thread is a continuation from Have Comments about Windows 7? (Part 3).Windows Client IT Pro Audience Manager for Web Forums

    Here are important Windows 7 missing/broken features which were working in XP and some were working even in the broken Vista OS. I have tried since 2006 to bring these to the attention of various Windows feature teams through their blogs,
    forums, newsgroups, Windows 7 Beta program on Connect, Windows Feedback Program, newly opened Windows 7 feedback website and even asked customer service for hotfixes but all of them have been largely ignored. How many more years, service packs and
    Windows releases is it going to take to fix XP to Vista issues?
    XP to Vista issues:
    - Shell/Explorer issue: Auto refresh / auto sorting is mandatory making it impossibly difficult to work with many files, especially when they are extracted from archives.
    - Shell/Explorer issue: Can't view size of folders in columns. Previously at least a shell extension called "Folder size" allow that but MS took away the core ability to be able to do that so the shell extension doesn't work any more
    - Shell/Explorer issue: Can't view the icons of 16-bit programs in 32-bit Windows 7 (I know 16-bit is stone age but if they can run, why not show the icons of those EXEs as well?). I can understand 64-bit Windows not showing icons for 16-bit EXEs but 32-bit
    Windows 7 should.
    - Shell/Explorer issue: No advanced file type association settings like Windows XP
    - Shell/Explorer issue: Access to network connection settings (IP address, DNS) status, details, repair, enable/disable is too many clicks away. Of course I can create a shortcut but if I have 2 wireless connections and 2 ethernet, I don't want to create 4
    shortcuts. Earlier XP allowed quick access to these settings depending on which connection was active.
    - Logon issue: I have set my system to auto logon but there are times when I want to log on to a different account, but there's no way in Windows 7 to stop the auto logon from happening. Previously in XP, holding down Shift prevented auto logon so you could
    switch to another user account. Or maybe Windows should have some timer at logon (like it has at startup) to wait for x number of seconds after which it should auto logon
    - Audio issue: I can't hear audio simultaneously from my headphones and from my speakers, or output to another set of speakers installed in the other room the same audio as I am listening to in my computer room
    - Audio issue: I am a big fan of MIDI songs and MIDI music in games so I want to be able to select a better sounding MIDI synthesizer than the ordinary sounding one that Windows 7 comes with by default but I can no longer do that. XP allowed that.
    - Servicing issue: Updates cannot be installed with the progess bar shown but unattended. It's either manual or completely silent without any indication that the MSU update completed or failed.
    - Servicing issue: Can't quickly and easily slipstream hotfixes like XP could using the /integrate switch
    - Shell/Explorer issue: WinSxS takes up too much disk space and Explorer doesn't let me view the correct size (nor any other utility that I know of since no size calculation utility can handle NTFS junction points points)
    - Driver installation issue: Whenever I want to install a custom driver for my hardware, the Plug and Play wizard now first installs its own Microsoft supplied driver or fails to install the driver if it doesn't have one out of the box. Then I have to open
    Device Manager with UAC prompts and start the "Update driver wizard" to install my own driver. In XP, the "Found new hardware" wizard itself had "Have disk" functionality where I could supply the path to my driver on CD.
    - System issue: No in place reinstall of OS to replace some corrupted files. With XP, I could reinstall the OS in-place so the OS would get repaired without my settings getting lost and programs having to be installed all over again
    - System issue: No hardware profiles so I can start my laptop with certain hardware disabled (like 2 NICs-1 wireless, 1 wired), 2 sound cards) depending on what hardware I want to use
    - IIS issue: SMTP and POP3 servers gone from IIS7
    - Management issue: Offline Files can't be automated from command line like one could in XP using CscCmd.exe
    - Power management issue:USB devices don't power off upon "safely removing". Data transfer stops but Windows 7 continues to supply power to USB devices
    - Power management issue: There is no progress bar when hibernating, the screen just turns black
    - Power management issue: Hardware power button can't be set to "Ask me what to do" every single time
    Vista to Windows 7 issues:
    - Shell/Explorer issue: Can't run 32-bit Explorer.exe in 64-bit Windows 7. Vista and XP x64 allowed that. Not all of my shell extensions are 64-bit.
    - Shell/Explorer issue: There used to be a sort bar with column headers for every view in Windows Explorer in Vista. In Windows 7, only details view has it.
    - Shell/Explorer issue: Windows Explorer doesn't remember toolbar positions so I can't unlock toolbars, rearrange them and lock them again. Every time I start Windows Explorer, each toolbar is forced on its own line.
    - Shell/Explorer issue: Auto arrange and Align to Grid in icon views is always on so I can't drag a few files away from a group if I want to work only with them.
    - Shell/Explorer issue: Old Vista style dialog boxes which use the ListView control still have the annoying full row selection in List view which makes it difficult to click in an empty area without making a file get selected. The new Windows 7 style dialogs
    and Windows Explorer doesn't have this annoying issue thankfully though
    - Shell/Explorer issue: If I select files then if I do an Edit menu -> Sort, they get deselected. I have to select them all over again.
    - Shell/Explorer issue: I can't set a background JPEG for folders any more
    - Taskbar issue: Clicking a grouped application's taskbar button or thumbnail when it is active (in the foreground) does not minimize it like it used to happen in XP. Only ungrouped application buttons minimize upon being clicked again. Another feature MS
    probably forgot with grouping.
    - Taskbar issue: Number of combined taskbar windows is not shown on the taskbar
    - Taskbar issue: I can't select taskbar buttons with Ctrl+click and then selectively group maximize or group close
    - Shell/Explorer issue: Advanced Query Syntax for searching has to be remembered. No advanced search GUI so search become easy like Vista
    - Shell/Explorer issue: Game Explorer doesn't allow customizing game shortcuts. Many times I have to add switches to game shortcuts for compatiblity or resolution, it's so annoying!
    - Taskbar issue: No network activity indicator.
    - Shell/Explorer issue: In Windows Explorer, when you group items by category, I can longer Ctrl click on group headers to select entire group. Could do that in Vista.
    - Power management issue: All three power plans (especially combination of Power Saver and High Performance) aren't shown from taskbar's power icons.
    - Missing tool: No equivalent to Meeting Space or NetMeeting which was very useful for screen sharing and conferencing over LAN without internet access
    It's no use whatsoever giving any kind of feedback or comments as I don't see the results of my feedback in service packs or hotfixes. Windows 7 is a wonderful but broken OS. Last non-broken with all functionality intact and working as intended was WinXP.
