Once again a replacement question

My iPhone was bought 7 months ago and crashes constantly but since I don't use it much I haven't bothered exchanging it yet. I tried restoring and everything and it is clearly defective and Apple recently said I can exchange it. However, if I wait a few months to exchange it, do you think they will replace it with the 3g iPhone? Engadget said "Original iPhones are totally gone, you won't be seeing those anymore." That makes me think, should I wait to exchange it?

When Apple performs an exchange it first attempts to exchange like for like - generally only when that's not possible will a newer product be exchanged for an older. In the case of an iPhone we know that the supply of brand new phones is almost non-existent but we don't know about the supply of refurbs. It is worth trying - especially if you are patient and wait a couple weeks past the July 11 release.

Once again a boring question?

i am trying to creat a about window such as when one clicks the about photoshop cs by going to the help menu and he gets a window with transparency.
I created a JLabel with an imageicon of gif having transparency and added it to the contentpane of JDialog. I also set the JLabel component to setOpaque(true) but it still shows a white background.
How can I fix it?

This should be in the Swing forum, right? Anyway, I think that you may have to
resort to calling native code to get a truly transparent dialog. The next best thing
to that would be to use Robot to take a screen capture and use that image
as your dialog's background. The is nearly as effective, if you make the window
not movable.
Here's a demo where I use the screen capture effect to make the window disolve.
Just cliick a few times on my ca r:-)

Can't find the RESET for rejected security questions, once again

When I log into my iTunes account I'm asked security verification questions & it does not accept my answers. This has happened before when our account was hacked. I do not want to go to the apple store once again! Can anyone tell me where the RESET button is to reset the security questions?

If there isn't one on the dialog box asking for the answers, there's none and you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Every time I update LR to a new version I seem to need a patch to make it work..... once again here I am SOS! I've just update LR to the 5.7 version and It wont let me start it: The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b).

Your system is missing a couple DLLs that LR needs, but the fix at Adobe is to copy them to the LR folder which gets replaced for each install, so you have to redo it after each LR install. It would be worth documenting the process and saving the DLLs so you don’t have to ask about it each time:

You might also use the AIO210 program to add them as detailed in this YouTube video—maybe this is a more permanent fix, but since the files are from media-fire be very careful about what you do so as not to install a virus on your computer.
I’d scan the downloaded ZIP you download with whatever virus and internet security software you have and don’t be fooled by extraneous popups you might see during the download process. I was able to download the aio210.zip after authorizing one Captcha window and closed at least one bogus popup trying to get me to install other software. I also scanned the downloaded zip with two virus scanners and both said it was clean. Here is the YouTube video, where the link to the ZIP to download is in the description once you expand it:

The bottom rubber case of my macbook 13" late 2009 has expanded and has detached from the main body..As i'm not presently under warranty i wanted to know will the repair be free of charge for me. I had once got it replaced for free but in warranty. As i read some where in the support that apple had agreed with the defect and had decided to replace the bottom covers without any charge. And even if i'm charged for it what will be the amount will hav to pay for it..
Thankx

Hi,
Here's the Bottom Case Replacement Link
http://www.apple.com/support/macbook-bottomcase/
It doesn't answer your specific questions about cost... but it does advise to contact an Apple Store or an AASP...
Anyway have a look at it... if you haven't already..
Cheers and Good Luck...

Once again, I need help...I'm starting to hate this board

Ok, I'm going to start from the beginning. When I first built this computer last year, (specs at the bottom) everything ran seemlessly. I upgraded to WinXP and no problems. Then my hardrive started screwing up around mid-summertime. The computer would freeze, crash, ect. Various things. After doing some research, running diagnostics and calling IBM, it was decided that the drive had gone bad. So I took it out, and bought a new western digital. After installation of the drive, and installing XP on the newly formatted drive, I expected everything to work fine. It didn't. First, there were blue and black screens of death. Sometimes the blue screens would mention something about IRQ's not less or equal, sometimes something else. Sometimes the computer would just restart for no reason. So I reformatted again. This fixed the blue screen problem and for about a day, everything (I thought) was cool. Think again. To start, I couldn't run any 3d application for an extended period of time without it freezing. And if I set the CPU to 1.2 ghz (where it should be!) it gets even worse. I even tried uping the voltage a little. No help. Sometimes the computer would just (once again) restart for no reason. Especially while using winamp. I tried different drivers, different bioses, readjusting my fan on my cpu, running memtest86 (which showed the memory to be fine). I have read through MANY threads on the forums and tried many other things, with no luck. The current situation, after attempting to install WinXP servicepack 1 is that I cant even load Windows. It always gets to the point where the blue bar is moving across while it says WinXP, and then the computer restarts. I ran tests to check how the powersupply was running during use, nd all the numbers looked good. The thing that really pisses me off, is that everything use to work fine, before the IBM drive crashed. Guys, I need some expertise and a Beer. I can do the second one myself and will gladly get a case for whoever can help me straighten this out! Even if I just have some part that needs replaced, I just need answers! Thanks guys!

All these guys with there power supply is a bunch of bunk and the combine this and that. a decent 300w psu will run the nforce with onboard vid or a geforce 3 easely. and forget all the combined crap.

And whatever else I plugged into the usb port and the only time I ever had Maveric's problem, which I had the same thing was when switch system driver from 1.0 to 1.05 they gave me the same thing he is having. so I stayed with the 1.0 until the 1.13's came along and they worked well.
I suggest his is a driver issue IRQ not less then, Bksod or random restarts or other blue screen errors.
Try the 1.00's
Oh by the way now my kid uses my old 300watter on his 1900xp nforce machine, with all kind of toys and his is also stable. So Wonky and Athlonix quit suggesting that a 300psu is not sufficent when in fact it may work very well. oh and one more thing Athlonix GET OFF THE SOUND CARD THING!!! the onboard works, can't you get that in your head. Only yours doesn't every one elses does. can someone draw a picture of that

Static methods in interface (Yes, once again!)

I know there has been many questions about why static methods in interfaces are not allowed. I know it is forbidden by the JLS. But does anyone know the exact reason for this? Is it just a design issue or are there technical difficulties with allowing it?
I can't think of any reason that it should be impossible to allow static methods in interfaces. I don't even think it would be very difficult to do. More importantly, it could probably be done without breaking existing code and existing JVMs (not too sure about the last one).
So once again: Was the choice of not allowing static methods in interfaces a design choice or a technical choice?

A better example of what you are suggesting is surely ...
interface i {
    static void one();
class a implements i {
    static void one() {
        // do something
class b implements i {
    static void one() {
        // do something else
}What would be the point of ever doing this?
You cant call i.one() as the method doesn't exist without an instance of an implementing class.
To actually ever be able to use that method you would effectively be casting an INSTANCE of a or b -> i. If you have an instance of an a or b then there is absolutely no reason for that method to be static.
If you wanted to implement some sort of class (ie static) behaviour then class a could call its own internal static method from within the 'one' method.
To get right to the point ... there isn't one. If it gets added to the language (and I can't see it in my wildest dreams) then Sun have lost their marbles, surely?
Unless someone can give a good example of when it might be correct and useful to do so? I can't even see how it would be a convenience as it is completely unusable, no?

Multiplexing once again

Sorry guys, but I have to stay at the problem of multiplexing.
I know, you've been handling this topic before, but I am not successfull in solving my problems:
1- I tryed to burn the project right out of IDVD 6.0.1. After 7 hours of rendering it got hung in the "multiplexing" process.
2- I followed your advice and tryed to save it as a Image-file and burn it with toast 7 out of this. Once again after half a day of rendering IDVD got stuck by "writing the lead in" (why does a .img-file need to have a "lead in" anyway?!?)
3- I tryed to delete the thumbnail-files etc as adviced, but I still cant burn the project.
I am still using 10.3.9, but I dont want to buy Tiger before I am not absolutly sure, that this will solve the problem. Every other program is up to date.
Another Question: where does IDVD save the rendered files? I am slowly running out of HD space. (still having 23 GB, but every new try costs 3 GB)
I have to say, I am very disapointed, I did not imaging, apple come with such problems in ILife 06.
thanks and greetings everyone,

Well, thats just great!
Just as I was about to sove my problems with the DVD burning, my DSL modem quit its job. Now I've been offline a week and it was just like ****.
A world without internet...
Sorry, back to my burning issue.
Yes, I tryed all the steps written in the link above, but it didnt work out.
I deletet al the dots in fonts book, but the appeared back again. Why do they do this?
I had also an other idea: what if i install IDVD 5 on my extern HD and try to burn the proojects with this version?
But, since I installed IDVD 6 a month ago, all my IDVD projects (witch were originally created in IDVD 5) have been converted to be compatibel with IDVD 6.
Is IDVD 5 able to read this files now?
Thank you for answering, guys.

Linespeed gone back once again from 6.5mbps to 280...

Since around 1st March we have been receiving vo4 error. We have had an engineer out twice now and last time he replaced home hub and requested reset then all is well for about 2 days. Then once again the line speed falls from about 6.5 mbps to about 280kbps. Its getting really annoying. Can't use broadband very well at this speed either! Has anyone had this type of fault? Apparently the wiring to the exchane is all good according to engineer tests.

It might be worth posting this in the Broadband forum for people to be able to help with this.
You need the config pages from your hub posted on your new post, BT speedtest (http://www.speedtester.bt.com) and paste the results onto your new thread.
Have you been resetting your hub lots?
Thanks

Apple is not here. Apple does not answer questions here. Apple does not acknowledge personal issues with your account here.
Everyone here is a fellow user and we don't have enough information in this rant to understand what the issue is so as to make recommendations of possible solutions.

I'm sorry, I do not fully understand your question. However if you are looking for the email address which you have used for your iTunes account, you can find this out by using the "get info" command on any items you have previously purchased from iTunes and navigating to the summary tab.

NApple needs to once again actually make a MOBILE PHONE.

An iPhone 4 or 4S is borderline, but anything bigger than that shouldn't be classified as a MOBILE PHONE. If it doesn't fit in your pocket comfortably, then it isn't mobile. If I have to carrying in a holster or something, it isn't mobile.
I do miss my 4S which "died", but I will never purchase an Apple phone, or any other brand, that is the size of a freaking tablet. I want a phone-sized phone. I settled for a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini. That purchase was made due to its size, 100% of the reason. It's an OK phone, but I'd rather have an iPhone. When Apple decides to once-again manufacture a normal sized cell phone, I'll buy one. Not until then.
I'm not going to be a slave to my phone, I'm not going to carry it in a holster, a suitcase, or other bag. I'm male, so I'm not going to carry it in a purse or anything like that either. So, if it won't fit in my front pants pocket, I won't be using it.
When the day comes that there are no cell phones that are a reasonable size, then I just won't have a phone at all.

Submit your feedback directly to Apple using the appropriate link on the Feedback page:
http://www.apple.com/feedback
As ckuan says, no one here has any interest in what type or size of phone you select. If you have any technical support questions about your Apple devices, though, we'd be happy to answer those.

I am on windows 7 and I upgraded to 10.0.2 and now it will not open. I have removed firefox completely and uploaded it again and that did not work. So my latest attempt I removed firefox 10 again and uploaded the beta version and once again nothing.

I am on windows 7 and I upgraded to the newest verison of firefox and now it will not open. I have removed firefox completely and uploaded it again and that did not work. I then made sure it could get through my firewall and that did not work. So my latest attempt I removed firefox 10 again and uploaded the beta version hoping that would do it and once again nothing. It will not open at all. Please help - is there a live chat or a number to talk to someone at Firefox?

I think when uninstalling you may also have to choose (tick) to delete the preferences and other personal data like the bookmarks, stored passwords etc. to erase completely. If you are installing afresh, please try right-clicking on the file and '''Run as administrator''' to install. And when uninstalling, please also make sure choose to delete all data and also manually delete any '''Mozilla''', '''Mozilla Firefox''' or '''Firefox''' from %appdata%, %localappdata% and %programfiles%. You can open a location by typing for eg. %appdata% in the '''Run''' box (Windows key + R). You may also have to check the '''VirtualStore''' folder in %localappdata%. Files in the VirtualStore can be problematic. I think a clean installation may help.

MDT 2012 deploy OS from USB external drive failed - need to unplug and plug it once again

We are using MDT 2012 and deploying Windows 7 using media (USB external hard drive). We can successfully deploy Windows 7 32 bit using this method but there is a problem with deploying Windows 7 64bit. This problem appears only on HP EliteBook 840. We can
boot into WinPE 64 bit and can start proper task sequence, all image is applied then after restart, before logon screen appears there is an error saying that cannot find litetouch.vbs script. After clicking ok, I can logon to Windows and there is no usb external
drive recognized. But when I unplug and plug usb drive once again it is recognized by Windows and can be used. I can see that Windows install some drivers just after plug it again
I checked BIOS looking for some USB power options - there is no such settings. And 32 bit deployment works ok. So this is not a case. Looks for me like a problem with proper usb drivers for 64 bit. I download all drivers from HP website (driver pack and
drivers only for USB 3.0). We are using make and model matching in MDT - works ok for all the rest hardware models. Any idea how to troubleshoot it?

Not sure what's going on here. Is this a USB "Flash" drive or a USB "Hard Drive". There *Is* a distinction.
I *thought* that MDT would copy itself to the c:\minint\scripts folder to continue installation.
Next time, when you see this error, Press Shift-F10 to get into a cmd.exe prompt. Can you find litetouch.vbs on any of the drives? Does the USB Drive appear?
IF in fact, the USB Drive is not appearing after the 1st reboot, then you have a problem. Why did the USB 3.0 driver not install. Check the Driver Installation Logs to verify.
