We live in a rural area and are still not offered anything better, so we have used dial up internet for several years. Quality has always been just fine, getting connections of 28.8-40k or higher, which is perfectly normal for dial up. However lately we have seen a rapid decline in the quality and speed of connections. While still useable, it has been annoying. This last month however I can only rarely connect at a speed higher than 9.6kbps. Sometimes it is even lower at 7.2k or even 4.8k. I know verizon is only obligated to provide high enough speeds for phone calls, but these low speeds are simply unacceptable for dial up internet use. Many programs wont even connect at all at speeds lower than 14.4k. Atm my dial up account that i'm paying monthly for is basically not useable at all.
How can I actually get verizon to do something about this. I don't want to be given the runaround by someone over the phone telling me they don't have to give use any higher speed connections. This is a complaint about suddenly dropping use to such terrible service compared to what we used to have for several years. Shouldn't this be addressed so that I can actually use my dial up account without so many problems?
I feel like our line has somehow been limited to only connect at these low speeds. Is something like that possible? How can we get verizon to stop doing that and actually connect our calls at decent speeds? I just want a return to the good service we used to receive if they aren't going to bring dsl/fios out here.
Did you try calling oyur ISP to see if it's something on their end? I know when I was on dial up years ago I had to change to a different number once in my area as something was wrong with the one I had always used to dial into AOL, maybe that's it. Mary

You did not steal my thunder. You asked for advice, I provided advice. I assumed that since you nor the "support team" could find your files that you did not have any backup. You should have told us you do regular backups. We have no way to know otherwise unless you tell us. -
What happened to the questions I have asked over the last several years?
When I hover over my user name at the top of the mozilla support forum, and then click "My questions", I am only shown my two most recent questions. What happened to all the question I have asked over the last several years? Also, I am no longer able to reach this forum through getsatisfaction.com.
Get satisfaction was turned off months ago. This is the support forum now. None of the history was moved over.

OK, so I have the 1st generation iPad. There is an AirPlay symbol, near the music symbol. Is this useless? If I enable it, what does it enable? And, what technological advances were made over the last 2 versions that have made my iPad 1, obsolete?
Thanks for the enlightenment!
JeffMy daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

I got a new laptop (Macbook Pro) and my IPhone is synced with my previous laptop (which I no longer have). I've recorded dozens of very long (un-emailable) Voice Memos over the last few weeks and need to get them from my IPhone onto my new laptop.
How do I do this?
(when I click on the Sync option I get the warning: "Are you sure you want to sync music? All existing songs and playlists on the iPhone will be replaced with songs and playlists from your iTunes library." I fear that if I click this I will lose all of my important Voice Memos as well)Just to add to what ChrisJ4203 said. You can sync them to your new computer using iTunes by selecting to Include Voice Memos on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing. However, you still need to re-establish syncing with the new computer without iTunes erasing all the iTunes media from your phone (as the warning mentioned).
If you copy your entire iTunes folder (not just your music) from your old computer to your new one, along with other non-iTunes media you may be syncing with iTunes (such as contacts, calendars and any photos synced to your phone from your old computer) by using migration assistant of following one of these methods: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527, then when you sync again with your new computer it will recognize your phone and sync as it did before. You will still have to authorize the new computer for any Apple IDs used to purchase from the iTunes and App stores (in iTunes>Store>Authorize this computer).
After that you can sync your voice memos to your computer as mentioned earlier.
If you want to archive your voice memos before you do anything with iTunes, you can use a 3rd party program such as PhoneView or Touch Copy. -
I have recently received 3 emails over the last 2 weeks from [email protected] I presume these are fake. Can anyone confirm
https://appleid.apple.com
Go to the above website, sign in to your AppleID using the "Manage your Apple ID" link, and make sure everything is correct. If it is, then clearly, at the least, the emails are in error. -
Computer iMac7,1 has been giving sundry problems for sometime. Within the last six weeks I have reinstalled the OS (Snow Leopard),without affecting the overall contents of the hard drive.
±3 weeks later the problems became more serious and I againreinstalled the OS and installed OS 6.6.7 from the internet.
I used the option to restore from the external backup driveand went back some time as it was my intention to reinstall individualcomponent in an attempt to find out where the problem might lie. This hasintroduced an entirely new problem! If I open Time Machine from the desktop itappears that all backups from late 2009 to June 2011 are intact. But, in thiscase there are none of the restore functions &c on screen. The latter areonly shown if Time Machine is opened from the menu bar or from the dock but, inthis case, available are only backups in late 2009!
I also opened the Apple Hardware Test in an attempt toestablish the nature of the problem. The ‘quick’ version said there’s nothingwrong; the more detailed one reported “Error detected, 4HD/11/40000004.” I haveagain tried to employ this test but nothing I do can induce it to open!!!
What to do? I need help urgently and would appreciate anyadvice that offers solutions to the problem.To check your S.M.A.R.T status open disk utility and click on your drive and then click on the info icon.

My Ipad is blocked with a message indicating that my data of the last 2 weeks were not saved, and to allow such saving I need to connect the ipad to a wifi. I did so but it does not work. What should I do? Many thanks for your help
I unblocked my ipad thanks to the solution offered by spritof.
Many thanks -
For the last few weeks, every time I shut down Firefox 18 (and most recently 19.0), I cannot re-open the browser again. The application spins as if it's going to open, then stops and sits there. I've had to resort to re-installing the brower each time now, very irritating. It does recall my tabs as they had been, which I want. I used to open as many as 40-50 tabs, but now have made an effort to keep them below 20, thinking that would help it work more optimally. I'm getting weary of re-installing the browser all the time. What should I do? THANKS
By the way, your "More system details" page shows that you have two different versions of the Flash plugin. Sometimes Adobe's updater fails to remove the older version if Firefox is open at the time you run it.
To remove the older one by hand, open this folder and look for files starting with NPSWF32:
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
You only need the latest one. -
The first to go was visaable voicemail. After 2 support calls, it still doesn't work. This was an app I considered "critical" when I purchased the phone - I am out of the office the majority of time, and need quick repnse to my clients' calls.
Then, there seemed to be battery issues...wasn't holding a charge as long, takes loner to charge.
Text messaging- frequently get "can't send"... powering down/back on doesn't resolve the issue. It sometimes send the text, but no pattern as to when or why.
SIM card error....message is that SIM card does not exist or is damaged and a message that I can continue to make emergency calls. The error generally just disappears and I can continue calling, but lately, the error often causes the phone to power off.
Any suggestions or other than 2 hours support calls?
It's interesting that I'm having tese issues now that my contract has ended and I can get another phone ...with another 2 year contract.
Thanks for any responses.
Joyceindoors and outdoors. my zip code is 07094. i know this issue is specific with this device only. if i hook up my galaxy s3 or bb device on same line with same sim card i have zero issues. I do get service when i am in and around my house but i drive a few blocks down it goes down to no service (circle with the line through it). most of the time i can't regain service by switching airplane mode on and off. Sometimes it works but i should not for any reason have to do this to use my phone.
Things i have done to troubleshoot.
-a replacement phone
-new sim card
-hard reset
-activated other devices with this line and sim. -

I don't know what version of Firefox I was using. I think it was 4.0 I have just downloaded the newest version 4.0.1 and will see if this continues or has been fixed. It has never done this while browsing with I. Explorer so I assume it to be a browser issue. One of the blogs I read said it was a Firefox issue.
The re-direct would occur usually right after I landed at a new web site or it might occur after I started browsing the site. I don't think it is a virus issue. I use Vipre home edition. The page looked just like a search listing window just like you would get in Google after searching for a subject. I would just arrow back to the site I was at and start again. Sometimes I would have to repeat this several times until it went to the correct site. Any ideas?That is a legitimate Mozilla newsletter. As it says in the email:

Dear Jonathan,
Greetings from Apple. I hope you are well, and thank you for taking the time to contact us. Before we continue, I would like to quickly introduce myself. My name is Raul and I'm an advisor for the iTunes Store.
It's my understanding that you are inquiring about the missing "New Releases" link on iTunes. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you, and I will be glad to address this for you.
As of right now, the "New Releases" link is not available via iTunes like it was before with the "Just Added" on the top right navigation menu on the music homepage.
Apple recognizes that no one is better qualified to provide feedback about our products and services than the people who use them. I encourage you to submit your feedback regarding this matter using the following form.
http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
As an alternative for the time being, you can sign up for the New on iTunes subscription via the link below

Again I apologize the inconvenience or disappointment this may have caused you, and I thank you for being an Apple customer. Have a safe day.
Sincerely,
Raul

☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select

Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above. Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first. Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough. It is never necessary or helpful to post more than about 100 lines. "The more, the better" is not the rule here.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
