Posts Written Before Registering Are Just Deleted?...

Hi ... Just curious if this is somehow me, or if this inane design flaw really slipped through the cracks here.
I had a questions re Skype.  The website provides no means of actually contacting someone, insofar as i can tell, so i gave up and came to the community.
I entered the community, and found a bunch of boards listed.  I couldn't find one that fit my question, but i went for my best guess.  I took the time to write up a detailed post with my question.  I hit "Post".
The site then prompted me to log in.  So i did.  Then it asked me to create a community name to protect my Skype login.  So i did.  Then it returned me to the community.
So what happened to my post?  No clue!  The board doesn't show it.  My profile doesn't show it.  I tried to hit "Back" in my browser to recover it, but returning to the page reloaded it as if i wanted to start over fresh.  It's gone!
Is this _really_ how the board is designed to work?  The site didn't tell me i had to log in or register before posting, so i figured it would either ask later or let me post as a guest. ... but then the act of registering somehow makes the system forget about my post?  Did no one think of this?  Please tell me i'm missing something!!
Solved!

    I'd just like to say that ahs70's post on Dec 1, 2013 at 1:17am on Pg. 9 worked for me as well: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5338609?start=120&tstart=0
    If your iPhone's battery is acting up you need to determine if it's a software issue or a hardware/battery issue.  To do that, after syncing your iPhone, erase/hard reset all data and settings from your iPhone to what it was from the factory as new.  This can be found in Settings/General/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings.  Then test it out for a day or two.  If it's still acting up then it's likely a hardware issue and you will need to get your battery replaced.  If your warranty is done than check out this link to get a battery kit to replace your iPhone battery yourself:  http://www.ifixit.com/Store/iPhone/iPhone-5-Replacement-Battery/IF118-001#produc tDescription
    If your iPhone is now working properly after hard resetting it than it's most likely a software issue.  This battery issue only started after upgrading to the new iOs7, so it is obviously related to the update not properly installing itself.  What has worked for me and many others is to manually update to iOS 7.0.4 using the full downloaded version of the update which is about 1.32 Gigs.
    But first you need to find out what model of iPhone you have, click here to determine if it's GSM or CDMA: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Then go here and scroll down to download the iOS 7.0.4 complete update for your device:  http://www.downloadios7.org/download-ios-7-0-4-ipsw-file.html
    Then scroll up on the download page and follow the instructions of updating your iPhone manually following the instructions below:  "IPSW with iTunes"
    And your done.
    Problem solved.
    I only posted this because it was a very frustrating problem that no one really seemed to figure out a solution for.
    I hope this helps.

  • Hi Apple Team, I would like to change the iCloud account on my iPhone, however it says I must 'delete the account' before doing so? Does this mean that I delete the entire existing account, or just delete it from my phone specifically?

    Just updated our iPad2 to iOS 7, and all my photos in camera rolls are gone, can't locate them anywhere. Were they just deleted, or is there a way to find them? Did not have iCloud account, so not backed-up there.

    We're you backing up to a computer using iTunes? If so, restore the backup from there.

  • TS3274 My daughters ipad has stopped downloading new apps, we tried to download some new ones this week and they are just showing as "waiting", we deleted all her games to see if it was a memory issue but they are still showing as waiting.

    We have tried to download some new free games for my daughter this week, there are three which are just showing as "waiting" and not downloading at all and its been almost a week.
    I deleted all her previous games thinking it might somehow free them up but it has not helped.
    please help i am getting nagged!

    If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

    Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

  • "Notify after old backups are deleted. Be notified if your backup disk is full and Time Machine deletes old backups to create space for new ones."  I would prefer to be notified BEFORE things are deleted.  Can the deleted items be recovered?

    Time Machine option #2:
    "Notify after old backups are deleted" Wouldn't it be better to get this notification BEFORE things are deleted? I suppose the real question is, is it possible to recover files deleted from time machine?
    The bold phrase above has a checkbox. But if I leave it blank it appears that I will receive no notification at all.
    I am using MacBook Pro, OS X version 10.9.5

    TIme Machine is not an archival tool. And no, you won't be able to recover the files that are deleted.

  • When I have my iTunes library on an external drive, but I forget to connect my external drive before opening iTunes, so then iTunes creates a library taking up room on my MacBook Air, can I just delete the iTunes library folder on my MacBook Air?

    So I have a MacBook Air, but it doesn't have a lot of storage inside of it. So I set iTunes to sort all media files (it copies things as I add them and puts them in the iTunes folder) and I set the iTunes folder to my external ntfs drive. This has been working fine, but I find that sometimes iTunes starts adding stuff to the folder on the Air itself. I don't know if this is me adding files to iTunes when the external wasn't connected, or what, but is it OK to just keep deleting that library on the Air? Otherwise it keeps building up multiple GBs. Or will just deleting it do something bad with my lecture videos and music when I sync an iOS device? I'm really worried about doing something wrong with my large collection and have iTunes delete it or not sync with my iOS device and I won't be able to figure out how to set everything up again.
    Also, should I format my drive to HFS+ rather than ntfs? The ntfs hasn't seem to be causing any problems, but I've always wanted to know. I keep everything on my external and sometimes it needs to interact with friends computers or school computers.

    I don't know if this is me adding files to iTunes when the external wasn't connected
    it is.
    is it OK to just keep deleting that library on the Air?
    i wouldn't - at least not until i
    mount the external
    point iTunes media folder location back to the external via preferences > advanced
    consolidate my library via file > library > organize library
    The ntfs hasn't seem to be causing any problems, but I've always wanted to know.
    in order for your Mac to write to NTFS drives, it needs some help by installing e.g. the NTFS 3G driver. apparently that or something similar is installed on your Mac already. preferably, it would be formatted for Mac but then windows machines would need to have e.g. MacDrive installed to recognize the drive.

  • ITunes post-upgrade: "Required files are missing"

    I just went through the process to install the latest upgrade, but there was some sort of problem with the installer. Rather than installing the upgrade, it apparently just deleted important files and then failed before replacing them. Now when I try to launch the program I get the message "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
    Here's my question: If I download and reinstall iTunes, will the installer be smart enough to recognize and preserve the good files that remain? I want to solve this in a manner that will maintain all my settings and file associations. Any help would be great.

    It would be great if I could get an answer on this. As stated in the previous post, my iTunes will not start due to missing files from a botched update. Furthermore, when I downloaded the latest version to reinstall, it did not appear to recognize my previous installation.
    Is there a way to automatically or manually repair the problem? Can I copy certain current files and replace them once I've reinstalled?

  • I have an iMac, 2015 model. operating on OS X 10.10.2 and whenever I click on just about everything in safari it opens a new tab with an ad on it. sometimes the ads are mackeeper or video hosting sites but they are just so annoying.

    I have an iMac, 2015 model. operating on OS X 10.10.2 and whenever I click on just about everything in safari it opens a new tab with an ad on it. sometimes the ads are mackeeper or video hosting sites but they are just so annoying.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem. You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow Apple Support's instructions to remove it.
    If you have trouble following those instructions, see below.
    Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. This procedure works as of now, as far as I know. It may not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.
    The VSearch malware tries to hide itself by varying the names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming pattern.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for two files with names of the form
              com.something.daemon.plist
    and
               com.something.helper.plist
    Here something is a variable string of characters, which can be different in each case. So far it has always been a string of letters without punctuation, such as "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," or "trusteddownloads." Sometimes it's a meaningless string such as "e8dec5ae7fc75c28" rather than a word. Sometimes the string is "apple," and then you must be especially careful not to delete the wrong files, because many built-in OS X files have similar names.
    If you find these files, leave the LaunchDaemons folder open, and open the following folder in the same way:
    /Library/LaunchAgents
    In this folder, there may be a file named
              com.something.agent.plist
    where the string something is the same as before.
    If you feel confident that you've identified the above files, back up all data, then drag just those three files—nothing else—to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Close the Finder windows and restart the computer.
    Don't delete the "LaunchAgents" or "LaunchDaemons" folder or anything else inside either one.
    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you never reinstall it. You can stop here if you like, or you can remove two remaining components for the sake of completeness.
    Open this folder:
    /Library/Application Support
    If it has a subfolder named just
               something
    where something is the same string you saw before, drag that subfolder to the Trash and close the window.
    Don't delete the "Application Support" folder or anything else inside it.
    Finally, in this folder:
    /System/Library/Frameworks
    there may an item named exactly
                v.framework
    It's actually a folder, though it has a different icon than usual. This item always has the above name; it doesn't vary. Drag it to the Trash and close the window.
    Don't delete the "Frameworks" folder or anything else inside it.
    If you didn't find the files or you're not sure about the identification, post what you found.
    If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
    The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • IPhoto 8.1.2, OS10.6.8, library huge - can I just delete it?

    OK - tried searching for this but can't find a specific answer.
    My 2009 MacBook Pro has Mountain Lion 10.6.8 running it, with iPhoto 8.1.2 installed.
    I am trying to clean up my MacBook in preparation for installing Mavericks 10.8. But I barely have room left for the Mavericks download of 5GB.
    Am researching how to remove apps in this forum and on the web to regain space, but my biggest issue for HDD space is the iPhoto library (I used 'Disk Inventory X' to find the biggest hogs, it was recommended elsewhere in the Apple discussions section).
    Anyway, the library is just *awfully* huge. Like a quarter to third of the 500GB drive! Price I pay for having two little kids that I over-document, I guess.
    I have copied the "originals" and "modified" folders from within the library to an external drive, so I can now safely erase the copies on the MacBook without data loss.
    So, here's what I need to know:
    1) Can I just delete the entire library? I know it will make iPhoto mad, but won't iPhoto just automatically rebuild it's needed file structure on a reboot and relaunch?, Since it won't find any images to load it would just create an empty library? Don't quite know how 'smart' iPhoto would be if it's library got removed...
    2) If that won't work, what will? The thing's just too big to stay on the laptop - gotta go.
    and last but not too critical 3) If anyone knows of a good mid-level summary of how iPhoto does it's thing regarding the library files setup it has, please post a link - I'd like to understand it, but the info I find is scattered and most often either too basic or *way* to deep.
    Thanks, all.
    Hoping for a reply....

    I have copied the "originals" and "modified" folders from within the library to an external drive, so I can now safely erase the copies on the MacBook without data loss.
    Make a current backup of your mac, before you start such a massive delete. You will not want to risk the photos of your kids.
    Then copy your complete iPhoto Library to the external drive, not just the originals and modified folder. Otherwise you will no longer have the references to the albums, books, your descriptions, keywords, you will have lost all work you invested into your photos.
    Then launch iPhoto with the options-key ⌥ held down and select to open the iPhoto library on the external drive. Give it a test run, to see, if it is working.
    Only if this succeeds, delete the library from your internal drive.
    3) I'll look for a tutorial, but right now I don't know of any. But actually, you do not really need to know, how iPhoto organizes the library. Only iPhoto need to be able to find files inside. For the users are many different ways provided, to access the photos inside. Just keep the library intact as an entity. To access the photos, see Terence Devlin's User Tips:                   How to Access Files in iPhoto
    This most recent user Tip explains how iPhoto stores the photos and how to backup the Library and to keep it safe:                   iPhoto and File Management.

  • Inventory: Movement after count with post date before the count date.

    Hi,
    We have stock movements all the days of the week.
    We conduct physical inventories on Sunday mornings. There are not stock movements on Sunday mornings (stock movements on Sunday starts at night).
    Usually we create the SAP Physical Inventory Document on Fridays, assigning Saturday as the Planned Count Date.
    We enter the SAP Physical Inventory Count on Sunday (at the end of the count) or on Monday.
    How you recommend us to use SAPu2019s Physical Inventory feature in order to calculate the Book Inventory considering all stock movements with posting date less than or equal to Saturday?
    Please, suggest us a solution that If we register a movement after we enter the count but with post date before the count date (and the count is not posted yet), the Book inventory is modified accordingly.
    Thanks in advance for your support!!

    SAP takes the book inventory in the moment you enter the count.
    Best you set  block movements , this block will be removed automatically when you enter the count. So you can prevent users from posting until you have entered the count.
    If you set the freeze book inventory, then SAP takes the book inventory in the moment you create the document.
    This is not a good way if you still have movements after inventory document creation and actual count.
    You have to make sure - organisational  wise, outside SAP - that all movements that happened before inventory count  are posted before you start entering the count. There is nothing in SAP that can help you in this case.
