Online number ... looks like cross-over happening ...

I have a UK online number and since setting it up a few weeks ago I have received calls on the UK online number from South Africa. When I answered some calls they said they were calling some company in Durban, South Africa.
It has happened both a number of times and regularly so i suspect that there may be a cross-over in the mapping of online numbers.... anyone else getting something like this? is it possible?

  • What does the S10e's serial number look like

    I just had the most frustrating time calling Lenovo service about my new IdeaPad S10e.
    They tell me the serial number is not that of an IdeaPad but a Thinkpad.
    I checked the S/N on the shipping box and on the bottom of the IdeaPad and they
    match.
    The model is an: 4187-39U I pruchased it from Provantage.com but the same
    model is sold at Buy.com and other eTailers.
    My serial number looks like this:
    L#ACW#H   (where # are numbers)
    It's 7 characters long. I also check the BIOS and that matches too.
    Lenovo says IdeaPad's have 10 character S/N's.
    So at this point nobody will talk to me about a service question.
    I just want to know if I have a HD failure the recovery partition is
    useless so how do a get an OS on the replacement HD.
    God forbid that should ever happen.

    If your iPod keeps on showing it and you can't control it and make it go away then ye. But don't worry it happened to me just restore it or upgrade it sometimes putting it into dfu mode helps or connecting it to the computer

  • HT4259 I have been trying for hours to extend my Extreme Gen 5 network with an Express Gen 2.  But no matter what I do or try, it doesn't work.  What does happen is my internet gets block somehow when the Express looks like it's set up and 'green' - no in

    I have been trying for hours to extend my Extreme Gen 5 network with an Express Gen 2.  But no matter what I do or try, it doesn't work.  What does happen is my internet gets blocked somehow when the Express is online and looks like it's set up perfect and 'green' - but no internet connection for anything even though the Extreme is green and the modem is good.  Once I disconnect the Express, everything is good again.
    I've tried LAN, WAN, though a switch, direct connect, Extreme set to Extend the network, the Express set to be an extension.  Most of the time I get an error trying to update the Express.  But when it seems to be set up perfect, the entire house can't get to the internet.  Just when it looks right, it is so wrong.
    If anyone can give me exact steps (e.g., "...from the Base Station menu, select the Restore Default Setting option" vice "...just restore the defaults..."), I would greatly appreciate it.  I'm left to the conclusion that the Express is faulty.  I've been using Airport Utility 6.2 from Mountain Lion on one computer and Airport Utility 5.6.1 from Snow Leopard on another computer (the latter give more control while the former just want you to 'forget' the Express).

    I finally got it working.  I was trying to set it up ethernet.  My biggest mistake was when the new Express came on, I did not select 'Continue' - I went straight to manual thinking that I would get the most setup options in manual mode.  So everything I initially tried always resulted in 'wireless'.  Even when I would update or restore default settings, the Express would not completely restart. Or sometimes I would get an error. So most of the time I had to unplug it.  So when it came back up, none of my changes were retained. But there were a lot of times when everything was green and appeared to be fine. But anytime the ethernet cable was plugged in, no more internet.
    So here's the weird part.  When I finally tried 'continue' (vice manual), I would get 4 options.  One would be 'ethernet' extended.  So I would select it, it gave me green lights, all looked good, and still the same problem.  This is when I got frustrated.  I thought I had exhausted all possible combinations.
    But somehow when trying continue again after another restore, I only got 3 options.  One was the same ethernet extended option (can't remember what the missing 4th one was).  And this time it worked - it gave me the big green circle with the checkmark saying it was successful.  I don't know what I did different, but I know now that it won't work if 4 options come up to choose from.  It will work if only 3 options come up.  And success if only verified by the big checkmark.  Had anyone anywhere said the checkmark declaring success is validation, then maybe I wouldn't have gone down so many rabbit holes thinking it should have been successful.
    As for which Airport Utility I prefer, 6.2 looks nice, but it would just ignore the Express and would want me to 'forget' it and would not let me edit it.  Airport Utility 5.6.1 was the one that I ended up using the most and finally had success with.  It still strikes me as odd that there is no manually way to pick ethernet, it can only be choosen following a 'restore defaults', and only from the 3-option list (the 4-option list had the same ethernet choice, but it no worky).
    Thanks for the response.  I really do appreciate it.
    Aiport Extreme Gen5 - internet access and router
    Airport Express Gen2 - connected via ethernet, extending my wireless
    - configured while connect directly to the Extreme, but now on a switch (16-port hub)
    Using Airport 5.6.1
    1) Restore Defaults from Base Station menu
    2) Following restart, Select Continue
    3) Of the 3 option presented, select 'ethernet.... extend network...'
      - if 4 options are present, may not work
    4) Wait for the green circle with the big white checkmark.
    5) Connected Express to the switch where a cable went to other end of house - works.
    Dead-zone went from 2mbps to 24mbps.
    I probably spent 4 hours chasing my tail in anger.  The correct way took about 5 minutes total.
    Thanks again.

  • How do I get my Web Form - to look like - Paper Form

    I have several fairly complicated forms in PDF and WORD.
    I was hoping the acrobat form wizard could convert them and then i could import them to formcentral to be then embedded as html forms on website.
    Problem is:
    1. imported forms can not be converted into embedded html
    2. from reading help, i would have to re-design/author the form from scratch.
    Which I am willing to do:
    Provided:
    1. I can actually create a form that looks like the original online (or similar to)
    2. I can then print this as PDF (so that it looks exactly like the original pdf) or that it actually fills the original PDF fields from the original pdf document.
    IS THIS POSSIBLE?
    put another way..
    I want to have a form online that looks like the form on paper.
    the client can fill it out.
    submit
    it sends him a copy of the completed form
    it sends us a copy of the complted form
    if it needs to be changed, a staff member can edit it.
    what do I have to do to achieve this?
    THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR HELP!!!

  • Possible mobile online number? need something to r...

    hi everyone
    anyone know any solution for me?
    i love skype and i would like to join if there is a service just like online number, but in mobile version.
    i need something i can receive SMS, so landline version of online number is not very working for me.
    anyone know anyting i can do?
    cheers.
    Sam

    can I purchase an online number & have calls forwarded to my mobile?
    If so, will callers pay local rate charges?
    Do I need to have the Skype app installed on my phone in order to recieve the calls? (I do have it installed, but it really drains my battery)
    Would be be able to see who is calling and which number they're calling (my mobile number or the 'online number')?
    Hi,
    Here are the answers to your questions:
    1. You can forward Online Number calls to your mobile:
    http://www.skype.com/intl/en/features/allfeatures/call-forwarding/
    2. Callers pay local rates if Online Number is local to them. Online Number acts like a regular landline number and people calling this number will get charged the same way as they would call regular landline in that area/country. Keep in mind that for call forwarding to your mobile number you will be charged. It would be the same if you call your mobile from your Skype account.
    3. If you forward calls to your mobile number, then you don't need Skype on your phone.
    4. You should be able to see who is calling. Skype should forward caller ID as well if it is enabled by caller. As you know not everybody has their caller ID visible when making calls.
    I hope this helps.
    Andre

  • Who can phone my online number?

    I live in the South Island, New Zealand. The closest major city in the South Island is Christchurch and I can buy an online number starting with prefix 03. Can people from other regions of my country call me on my online number, for example from Auckland or Queenstown?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I live in North Carolina, USA. My online number functions like a regular phone number. Anyone in the world can call (using the US country code as the initial prefix of course).
    I have even set up call forwarding on my online number to ring directly to my cell phone.
    I would imagine it works that same way where you are. 
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I adjust the contrast of video on my MacBook Pro Retina so they don't look like they were filmed with an old sock over the lens?

    I'd like to watch movies and TV shows, downloaded from iTunes or Amazon, on my MacBook Pro Retina, but they all look like they were filmed with an old sock over the lens. Daytime sequences look muddy, and night time sequences are incomprehensible with anything but the brightest objects rendered as black. I can watch the same files on my old MacBook Air and everything looks right, but no manner of tweaking seems to let me watch movies on my new machine.
    I've tried adjusting the gamma. It's a bit better when gammas is set to 1.0, but I can't seem to set a gamma less than one. I tried using the Accessibility Contrast control, but it just lowers the contrast, swallowing my desktop into the dark abyss. I tried Applecare, but they don't have a clue. I tried the Apple Store. The "genius" confirmed that it is indeed impossible to watch movies shot anywhere but in the brightest sunlight on a MacBook Pro Retina, and it isn't just my machine, but every similar model in the store. He arranged for someone who really understands color profiles to give me a call, but Apple seems to have dropped the ball on this.
    Is there some tool for stretching out the darker grays in Apple video? I don't want calibration. My impression is that my display, like the dozens I checked at the Apple Store are calibrated to make all dimmer grays appear completely black. I want uncalibration so I can actually see what is going on in the movies even if something is in a light shadow or shot at night. Hollywood has lots of trained technicians who can light and shoot night scenes that are quite comprehensible. I've watched a number of such scenes on my old MacBook Air. Now, I'd like to enjoy their artistry on my MacBook Pro Retina.

    http://www.ifixit.com/ has directions for do it yourself.  Also look at PRAM battery instructions, as sometimes this can fix optical drive issues.
    You can get external or internal drives from http://www.macsales.com/
    I also suggest in the future, take care of this problem while it is still under warranty. It may have cost you nothing.

  • When on facebook or sites with pictures, the pctures almost look like a negative except that it's green. this does NOT happen in IE

    while on facebook pictures look like negatives but green. almost as if they were ifrared but bright green. eyes, hair, items most of the picture is this bright green. this does not happen if i go to facebook using Internet Explorer. i have deleted firefox and reinstalled over and over but it keeps reoccurring. very frustrating!!

    That's strange, I haven't heard of that one! A standard diagnostic step is to try Firefox's Safe Mode to see whether it is caused by a custom setting or add-on.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, restart Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the Safe Mode dialog, do not check any boxes, just click "Continue in Safe Mode."
    If the photos look right, the problem most likely is an add-on or custom setting. Do you have any add-ons that modify or block images, ads, or Flash?

  • Why does my screen look like it has spots all over when it has not been in or near water?

    Has anyone else had this happen?  I have had my phone for about a month and today it looks like the phone has water spots all over the screen.  It hasn't gotten wet even accidentally from rain or anything.  Haven't had any, so I don't know why it would look like this.  Is there a way to get rid of this?  

    I just bought one and it had a sticker on it and it was impossible to remove, so I took it off and now there are spots all over.

    Do you have any restrictions for purchasing apps on the phone? Settings > General > Restrictions. If you have a Mac computer or another Apple device can you purchase things in the App Store using the same Apple ID on something else?

  • Since itunes 2.0.4 has been downloaded. My ipod doesn't synchronize properly/ at all.The LED screen shows  "copy 1 or 2 from 101" and it will remain like that. It looks like sync but there's nothing to happen. It doesn't stop by it self. How to solve?

    It looks like sync but nothing is happening. The sync doesn't stop by itself. Is there anybody to solve this problem? In previous versions never a problem.

    I have exactly the same issues with my new 80G iPOD. I have found that when connecting to my PC, the iPOD does not start iTUNES 7. This can be resolved by stopping the iPOD Service in Computer Management, connecting the iPOD and then starting it again. Then when you start iTUNES it finds the iPOD. - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716
    Seems like a stupid long-winded way to do things, but at least you can get some stuff on to your iPOD.
    As far as using Restore goes - I just get the restoring iPOD message you described, which it blatantly isn't :((

  • I have an ipad 2 and I noticed I have over 3000 emails in All Mail. I want to know how can I delete these emails. It looks like you can only do it one at a time. It will take me forever. Please help me.

    I have an ipad 2 and I noticed I have over 3000 emails in All Mail. I want to know how can I delete these emails. It looks like you can only do it one at a time. It will take me forever. Please help me.

    You can only delete them one at a time on the iPad. If you have an IMAP email account, go to your email in on the server using a web browser and select as many as you can at a time and delete them that way. That action will be reflected on the iPad. In IMAP - whatever you do on one device syncs across all devices. If you have POP email - start deleting one at a time.

    After install of Mavericks, it looks like my system kernal panics and just sits there. I tried waiting over two nights.

Recovery partition now has Mavericks as OS. Im running a iMac i3 27 inch circa 2011. Any ideas? Can still bootcamp into windows.
    Thank you

    The file seems to create the CD/DVD/Image and USB just fine. So I used this only to create a CD image which I then wrote on a blank CD which seems to work fine. Also, I played around a bit and had some partial success in booting the partition. I've updated my original opening post with the new findings.
    Whew!! what a waste of time! Never want to do all of this again .
