Problem Adding Places in 8.03 Update

Hi there,
Apologies if this duplicates any known issue mentioned at length in this forum already. I have been manually (and slowly) going through all my photos and adding Places to them. The other day I installed 8.03 software update and now I find that when I go to add a new place within the map dialogue, I get the whirring searching icon but the map will never advance from there.
Tried it several times with different locations, closed iPhoto and restarted it, still the same. Anyone else have this problem ?
Thanks,
Craig

Yes, loads of people and the solution is to update Safari to 4.0.1

Cannot place order ERROR: "There was a problem adding your product to cart"

Hey guys,
Well, once again Best Buy's online system is preventing me from making an order. It seems like nearly every time I log in I experience some new problem. This time, I'm unable to add anything to my cart. It doesn't matter what item I try to add to my cart or what browser I use or if I clear cookies...it happens every time, on every browser, with every product in the store. The error shows a red & white triangle with a message "There was a problem adding your product to cart".
Just to clarify ahead of time: 1) I have already tried signing in using 4 different browsers (explorer, firefox, chrome, opera) & they all give the same error; 2) Prior to posting here I researched this problem & found out it is somewhat common & has been occurring since at least 2012 on BestBuy.com; 3) Every time someone posts in here about this problem, customer service offers the same "fix" every time - to sign out, clear their browser cache of cookies, shut down the browser, restart the browser, sign back in, etc.... The only problem is, this "solution" has not worked ONE time our of the many times this problem has cropped up in here over the past 3+ years. Why this "solution" keeps getting told to people even though it never works is beyond me. But, there you have it.
Just to clarify: I have already tried this solution, And just like with everyone else before me, it didn't work for me either. So, what's the next step? There must be something else that can be done other than waiting a couple more days for it to magically fix itself (it seems that is the only thing that ever "works"...is to let several days go by and the problem ends up getting fixed in some back-end server-side patch up).
What I'm hoping for from you is a solution that can fix this immediately. This problem has already prevented me from making a couple purchases for items that were temporarily on sale over the past couple days. So, those are lost sales for Best Buy. What I'm hoping to do now is pre-order the Elder Scrolls Online (PS4) in order to take advantage of the $10 pre-order reward. The game releases on Tuesday the 9th. So, in order to get this done in time I need to place the order sometime today (on the 8th).
With all these repeated technical problems making purchasing a chore & wasting my time every single time I want to buy a product it's almost as if Best Buy is telling customers "We don't care if our online system works reliably...go spend your money at Amazon instead". lol
Thank you in advance for your timely help on this matter.

Hello mjswooosh,
I'm very disheartened to hear that you've had ongoing problems when attempting to order from BestBuy.com. Our goal is ever to provide a fun and efficient shopping environment! Certainly creating aggravation serves neither you nor us and I apologize sincerely for this having been your experience.
We recommend the troubleshooting steps you mentioned (i.e., clearing the browser cache, deleting temporary internet files and cookies) because this is the most common cause of this type of problem. I too have encountered this issue from time to time and these steps have almost always resolved the problem. I say almost always because there's one further step you can try: ensure that you have signed out of BestBuy.com, then perform the browser maintenance steps we've recommended. Afterward, before signing in to BestBuy.com, add your desired items to your cart and sign in as part of the checkout process. When the standard steps have not netted a resolution for me, this has solved the problem each time.
I hope this helps. I'm very grateful that you took the time to write to us with your concerns and for sharing your very valuable feedback about your online experience.
Sincerely,
John|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

Problems re-installing after on-line updates cause version change from install CD

I'm running AcroPro 6 updated to 7.1 through on-line updates, on laptop and was on desktop. The laptop runs just fine with no issues, and Acrobat 6 does everything that I need done, so I don't have any desire to upgrade to the latest and greatest. Problems with Acrobat on the desktop caused me to uninstall it, and I couldn't reinstall it.
Now, using the laptop in conjunction with the desktop isn't the most convenient because I'm creating documents on the desktop, and then have to port them to the laptop, do whatever is needed there in Acrobat, and then port back. Usually all that I need to do is to assemble a pdf from separate pages, insert or remove pages from a pdf, or to apply security. Nothing particulary fancy.
Acrobat on the desktop worked fine for many years, but at some point reported an issue finding the printer, and refused to print anything. After trying everything I could think of as a possible solution I, perhaps foolishly, uninstalled Acrobat with the intention of reinstalling it and having the problem resolved. On attempting to reinstall, starting from the original Acrobat 6 CD, the installer reported that a later version of the software was installed, and exited. It would seem that simply uninstalling Acrobat leaves sufficient references in registry or other places for the last update applied to be determined during installation.
There seem to be two possible options so that I can avoid the, to me, unneccesary expense of upgrading to the latest version of Acrobat.
Locate and remove the source of the data that the Acrbat 6 installer is reading and which causes the installer to exit, or
Slipstream the updates (to 7.1) into the Acrobat 6 installation files, so that the version I would be attempting to install is the same as the verion that I uninstalled.
I tried scanning registry to find all references to Acrobat and or Acrobat 6, but I'm not certain this is the best way. Missing one might be critical, and removing them might just cause worse problems.
I tried slipstreaming the Acrobat 6 installer, but it fails using the msiexec /a switch, as it appears that Acrobat 6 wasn't designed to work with an administrative install point, according to the pop-up dialogue box.
My problem is that while I just want to reinstall Acrobat 6, update to 7.1, and go on happily, I can't see how to do this. Can anyone advise if there is a solution other than upgrading?
Thanks in advance for you thoughts, all will be appreciated!

Thanks John, Bill and Graffiti for your interest!
The original install, many years ago, was of an education version from a local college. As updates became available thorough the update manager, they were installed. As stated above, it updated though 6.0 to 6.6, and then on to 7, eventually to 7.1! I can only repeat what happened, but not explain it. I thought nothing of it at the time, as it was all being managed by the update manager. I agree that this last seems to be more an upgrade than an update, but... what can I say? What happened is what happened, and it happened as I described it.
But not's get hung up on the history! Now that I seem to have solved the original issue of not getting past the message that 'a more functional version has been detected', how does one solve the 'invalid serial number' issue that occurs when attempting to reinstall 6.0? Delete the Acrobat registry keys from HKLM and HKCU, and possibly anywhere else? The former didn't work yet, so, where else? Maybe there is an 'update' folder hanging around somewhere with a registry reference that needs to be deactivated? Something like {AC76BA86-0000-0000-7AC5-6028747ADE00}?
Any further thoughts? And thanks for the input, it really is appreciated!

Problems adding an image title?

Hi,
When I place an image in Muse I'm having problems adding an image title. When I Control click the image in Design view the choices I get at the bottom of the pop up menu are
Edit original
Edit Image Properties
When I looked it up in help it tells me I should also see another item "Add Title" but I don't get that as a choice. When I click on "Edit Image Properties" I get a choice of Tooltips or Alt Text but no place for a title.
Thanks,
Bill

This is the page
http://www.adobekb.com/strategies_for_seo.html#addingmetadata
To be clear when I right click on an image I only get the choice of "Edit Original" & "Edit Image Properties". When I click on "Edit Image Properties" I only get a choice of Tooltips or Alt Text, nothing for title
Thanks,
Bill
Adding titles and alternative text to images
After you place images on a page, you can access the Image Properties dialog box to set both a title and alternative text (also sometimes called alt text) that is assigned to the image.
Here's a brief description of each property:
Title: In many browsers, the title is displayed in addition to the image, typically as a tooltip that appears when a cursor hovers over it.
Alternate text: If the image file cannot be shown, this text is displayed in place of the image. Alternate text is also used to describe images to visually impaired visitors using assistive technologies to access page content.
It is ideal to set titles and alternative text for every site asset, to ensure that visitors have the best experience when navigating your site. Tooltips are helpful for including additional information about graphics and alternative text makes pages more accessible for screen readers that verbally present graphic content.
To add titles and alternative text, follow these steps:
1. Select a placed image.
2. Right-click on the image and select Add Title or Add Alternative Text from the context menu that appears (see Figure 3).

Intel Mini has problem with Mail/internet after firmware update (0.1)

Hello there.
I'm not sure, but I think my Intel Mini has gone bonkers after a firmware update (Mac mini-SMC-firmware-updater (1.0)
What happend is, that connecting to (both of) my two Gmail and Tiscali accounts is not working anymore. (no connection through gate 995)
I did not change anything in the accountsetup.
But now I notice that even my torrents (oops) can't connect anymore.
I think this all took place after the firmware update.
On Dutch sites I do not seem to get any useable answers, so I thought it be wise to go a bit more international.
Could anyone help me out on this one?
Cheers.
Marco

Wizzard,
Having the same problem here. After updating the firmware the wireless connection to the network is unstable. After rebooting the laptop most of the time I get "Low or no connectivity" message. Sometimes it connects and dies after a few minutes. And sometimes it connects and stays connected until shut down.
What do you mean by "u have to reset it for 30 seconds and then reconfigure it"? Do you mean you actually have to reset the router to default settings and reconfigure, or just power down and bring it back up?
Thanks,
Stas

You need to add a valid payment method to your account. Purchasing and redeeming an iTunes gift card will work

Can't download anything from app store or itunes. everytime i try to install an app i get "there is abilling problem with a previous purchase. please update ur payment method". i have recently changed my address and visa debit card. please help

can't download anything from app store or itunes. everytime i try to install an app i get this error "there is a billing problem with a previous purchase. please update ur payment method". i have recently changed my visa debit card and home adress and when i make these changes i still get the same error.
will u please help me out?

Are you listing the billing address for the card correctly? The address in the iTunes/MAS account must match the address on your bill exactly.

Problem with "SELECT...FOR UPDATE OF..." and "POST command" combination

Problem with "SELECT...FOR UPDATE OF..." and "POST command" combination
Problem in committing transactions in Multiple Forms (Oracle Forms) with POST built-in command:
Consider that the following statements are written in WHEN-WINDOW-CLOSED trigger of a called form.
Statements in called form (Form name: FORM_CHILD):
go_block('display_block') ;
do_key('execute_query') ;
-- Data from table_b will be populated in this block, based on the value of COLUMN_1 obtained
-- from TABLE_A.
-- Example: If the value of COLUMN_1 is 10, then all the matching records from TABLE_B, which
-- are inserted with value 10 in TABLE_B.COLUMN_1 will be fetched and shown here.
if user_choice = 'YES' then
commit ;
else
rollback ;
end if ;
Statements in calling forms:
There are two calling forms having following statements and it is going to call the above said called form.
CALLING FORM 1
Statements in KEY-COMMIT trigger:
post;
call_form(form_child, no_activate) ;
Statements in ON-INSERT trigger:
select column_1
from table_a
for update of column_1
where column_2 = 'X' ;
update table_a
set column_1 = column_1 + 1
where column_2 = 'X' ;
insert into table_b ...;
insert into table_b ...; Statements in KEY-COMMIT trigger:
post;
call_form(form_child, no_activate) ;
CALLING FORM 2:
Statements in ON-INSERT trigger:
select column_1
from table_a
for update of column_1
where column_2 = 'X' ;
update table_a
set column_1 = column_1 + 1
where column_2 = 'X' ;
insert into table_b ...;
insert into table_b ...;
insert into table_b ...;
Our understanding:
Assume that both the forms are running from two different machines/instances, issuing commit at the same time. In this case, forms will start executing the statements written in ON-INSERT trigger, the moment POST command is executed. Though the commit is issued at the same time, according to oracle, only one of the request will be taken for processing first. Assume that calling form 1 is getting processed first.
So, it fetches the value available in COLUMN_1 of TABLE_A and locks the row from further select, update, etc. as SELECT...FOR UPDATE command is used (note that NOWAIT is not given, hence the lock will be released only when COMMIT or ROLLBACK happens) and proceed executing further INSERT statements. Because of the lock provided by the SELECT...FOR UPDATE command, the statements in calling form 2 will wait for the resource.
After executing the INSERT statements, the FORM_CHILD is called. The rows inserted in to TABLE_A will be queried and shown. The database changes will be committed when user closes the window (as COMMIT is issued in its WHEN-WINDOW-CLOSED trigger). Then the SELECT...FOR UPDATE lock will be released and calling form 2's statements will be executed.
Actual happenings or Mis-behavior:
Calling form 2 starts executing INSERT statements instead of waiting for SELECT...FOR UPDATE lock. Also, the value selected from TABLE_A.COLUMN_1 is same in both the calling forms, which is wrong.
The rows inserted into TABLE_B are having similar COLUMN_1 values in calling form 2 and they are fetched and shown in the called form FORM_CHILD.
Note that in calling form 2 also POST only is issued, but the changes posted there are accessible in calling form 1 also, which is wrong.
Kindly suggest us as to how to fix above problem. It will be much use, if you can send us the information regarding the behavior of Oracle Forms POST built-in also.
Our mail ID: [email protected]
Thanks a lot in advance.

You have several problems:
1. On-Insert will ONLY run if you have created a new record in a base-table block. If you haven't done that, then the POST command will not cause it to run.
2. Select for update without a "no wait" will lock records for the first form, but when the second form tries this, it will hit the ORA-00054 exception, and will NOT wait. The only way you could make it wait is to issue an UPDATE sql command, which is not such a good way to go.
All POST does is issues SQL insert or update commands for any changes the user has made to records in a form's base-table blocks, without following with a Commit command.
Also understand that Commit is the same as Commit_Form, and Rollback is the same as Clear_Form. You should read up on these in the Forms help topics.

Anyone having same problem? I phone 4 after updating to Vers.5.1.1. battery cannot be 100% full charge, always stop at 99% and battery drains off fast too :(

Anyone having same problem? I phone 4 after updating to Vers.5.1.1. battery cannot be 100% full charge, always stop at 99% and battery drains off fast too

I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

What "auto shutdown problem" are you talking about?

Hi i have a problem with my iphone 3gs. i updated the software to ios 6 but now when trying to activate the phone it comes up with a message saying that the activation server is currently unavailable, also it always says no sim! what can i do?

i have an activation problem with my iphone 3gs. i updated the software to io6 using itunes but now the phone will not complete activation because it keeps saydin the activation server is not available and to re try later. ive been trying for 6 hours but it still wont activate. if i try using itunes then it sayd no sim inserted when there is one inserted, what can i do?

You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

I created a new ID for my Iphone, because the old ID was an email address I no longer have. Also, the phone wouldn't recognize the password I have always used. Now the problem is when I try to update my apps, it automatically wants to use the old ID.

Now the problem is when I try to update my apps, it automatically wants to use the old ID. I've set the new ID for the phone, but it defaults to the old one when asking for a password to update apps.

That's because all apps are forever tied to the Apple ID used to obtain them, & can only be updated using that ID.
To use your new ID with these apps, you'll have to delete them, then repurchase. Or, contact iTunes support, explain the situation, & ask that they add these apps to the download queue of your new ID.
