Re: this is the most frustrating site I've been on...

I have a premium account which I do not use regularly, only to call business contacts from Brasil to US. But, to get started, I cannot find Easily, the link to make calls. I get routed, routed, rerouted.
This is aphone company, why DO YOU NOT GIVE OUT A TELEPHOE NUMBER? DO NOT WANT TO CHAT, OR WAIT FOR AN EMAIL. I WANT ANSWERS PRONTO.

Hi, CharlotteSonoda, and welcome to the Community,
Skype does not host a customer service call-center; nor does Skype use a generic or central e-mail address; instead, Skype employs a website web-form process to reach their customer service unit. Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service You would need to contact Skype Customer Service for questions related to your subscriptions.
If you have not used Skype in a while, remember we need to download and install the Skype sofware onto our computer/device first: Download Skype
I arranged to merge two of your posts into a single thread (topic). This is a great refresher course on how to navigate the Skype software: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA11099/finding-your-way-around-skype-windows-desktop
Here is a link to the instruction on how to place calls from Skype to a fixed line or mobile number: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10917/can-i-call-people-in-other-countries-with-skype#2
Here is a link to the instruction on how to place a call to another Skype user: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10935/calling-someone-who-s-on-skype-windows-desktop
If you have further questions, when you post back, in order for the Skype Community to help you, some more information would be helpful:
- Hardware use (laptop/phone/tablet brand and model)
- Operating system (version and updates installed)
- Skype version used
- Internet connection used
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Elaine

Yep, skype has become one of the most useless things on the internet,,,,, well the ACTUALL skype is quite fine, it's just the "help" pages are simply designed to go round in circles so the "team" helping don't ever have to,,,,,,,,,, do anything, answer other humans (we assume they in fact are human), actually reveal their intelect(s) and or interact with the REAL WORLD in any way whatsoever, they are however easy to spot,,,,,,,,,,,,, they're the ones sitting prone rocking back & forth chanting on the floor of the mall RIGHT NEXT TO THE GUN SHOP,,,,,,,,,,,, I'd advise quietly returning to your car, train or taxi and dialing 911 (or appropriate to your country) other wise the good news is there are now MANY other options (fortunately) for free video calling etc, dear old Google.com has truck loads for your convenience, personaly I have 3 (yes a whole three) contacts on skype now, the rest of my 100+ (Im a small player I know) have all scattered round the MANY other options that have REAL help pages, that (gasp) DO answer questions (many in REAL TIME with live human operators) this has been hugely convenient and altogether quite pleasant to have, hope that helps.

It took forever to get the Adobe Acrobat DC to download, it finally did and I am trying to convert a file from PDF to RTF and it is telling me that I am not connected to the Internet. This is the MOST frustrating product I have ever tried to use!! Why i

I don't want other people to answer this question, I want a an Adobe support person to answer the question.
Why can't we get support?? We paid for a product that is not able to be supported????

Hi Michelle ,
We are extremely sorry that you have had a bad experience with Adobe .
As far as your issue is concerned ,Acrobat generally prompts for internet connection as it is required to activate the product before you could use it comfortably .Once the product is activated or licensed you would be able to use the software offline .
This could be the possible reason you are experiencing this .Please check if you have done so and still facing this .And if you have not ,you need to license/activate your product by typing in your credentials ,i.e Adobe ID and password .
You could also refer the following link to get updated about the activation of your product .

I cannot swipe up on my iPad to get to control centre. I want to mirror to Apple TV. this is the most frsutrating thing. No wonder Microsift rules

I cannot swipe up on my iPad to get to control centre. I want to mirror to Apple TV. this is the most frsutrating thing. No wonder Microsift rules

Is notification center showing up when you swipe down ?
Check in your settings if control center is checked :
Settings > control center > check both "lock screen" and "access within apps"
gently swipe up beginning outside the screen, just a few inches up (you don't need to swipe up to the top of the screen.
if detected the airplay option will appear in the control center.

Printed on the side of the box your phone came in:

I can no longer manually select podcast episodes to download. It automatically downloads the most recent. I have been downloading a few episodes at a time due to the limited memory of my Shuffle. Is there a work-around?

Similar problem here. My Ical refuses to edit or delete events. Viewing is possible, though sometimes the whole screen turns grey. Adding new events from mail is still possible. The task-pane completely disappeared. My local apple technic-centre messed about with disk utility for a bit and than told me to reinstall leopard. I could of course do that, but it seems to me that reinstalling Leopard just to fix iCal events is a bit invasive.
I tried also tried removing everything, installing a new copy of iCal from the leopard-cd, software updates, all to no avail.
At the moment I'm open to all suggestions that do not include a complete leopard reinstall.

where is the data stored when i moves messages to the imported pst?
after serval months of rebuidling and creating new identites for Outlook for mac2010 any reasons why this is constantly happening?

I am not sure what you mean by this.
is it ok to delete outlook ID's copy/backup as running out of space?
If you mean you have several identities in the Office Identities folder then yes. You can delete whatever you don need\want except for your current.
Are you updated to the latest version of Office?
After the restore, navigate to ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/your identity and delete the file called Database. Then rebuild.
This may help:

The most frequent site is not at top of list on location bar dropdown in 10.0.2

Previous version ordered the drop down history on locator bar by frequency of use. This meant my most commonly visited site was at top of list and I used that to select my site. Now it's halfway down the history list and more inconvenient to access. I tried selecting the site many times to see if it would move up. No luck. Any way to change the order? Liked the old way better.

I don't think LabVIEW 6 generated those error log files as LabVIEW 7
does. Not sure if it did generate an error log at all, but definitely
not in ...\My Documents\LabVIEW Data directory. It may however create a file in the temporary directory.
As to the error message it is probably worth a try to enter 6.0.2
instead. It is not very likely that the code base of LabVIEW has
changed so significantly that this message would be in another place.
That said the error page on the NI site has not a single time helped me
up til now. I always seem to only get errors NI hasn't felt like adding
to that database.

I have replaced my faulty hard drive on my macbook air 1.1 and need to reinstall the original software where can in find this on the apple web site?

I have replaced my faulty hard drive on my macbook air 1.1 with a new ssd, I need to reinstall the original software,where can I find this on the apple site?

There is no download for the software. The factory software that you are looking for is called ilife. It is all of the software that would have came preinstalled with your mac on your original hard drive when you first bought it. You will have to get new software on your computer. This might actually be a great opurtunity to upgrade to Lions. Search the Lions software in the mac store and it will come up. Click add to cart and check out. The price for it is $20. I defientely recomend Lions, it has alot of new great features. Then wate for the install disk to come in the mail. when it come just pop it in and follow the step by step instructions. If you dont want to upgrade to lions however you can download the ilife package from apple.com for a small price. Hope this helps.

I'm going through **** here, using a spanish key board, to lay down fonts, using FCP X, each and every time the "accent" mark is need over a letter, FCP X shuts down...this is the most feckless system I've worked with in years!!

I'm going through **** here. Have a client who needs a spanish version of their corporate presentation. Got the Spanish keyboard up. Each and every time I need to use an accent above a letter...FCP X shuts down. What is going on with this system? The most feckless piece of soffware ever!! Ready to pull out the old tower G4 and cut on the FCP 7...

Okay will do...using the Canadian English Version...
Also, as you well know in Spanish, the "accent" does "slice" either way. Over vowels, such as "a" and "o"...
If you have any more advice...I'll gratefully take it...and a much appreciated "thank you"

Why have you removed the bookmarks side panel button? This is THE most important feature of firefox.

Since last update of firefox, the button to open the side bar bookmarks have been removed (ctrl+B) equivalent.
I don't want to do a ctrl+B command in a graphical interface that I use so often. There is no good enough extension for that task.
This is THE reason I used firefox since the begining.
I have gazillions of bookmarks cleanly ordered since YEARS of web browsing. This is the way I use internet. If I have a project I create a folder and I put every interesting links I want to remember in it. There is no way to do that in a dropdown menu which close at every click.
I know people who use chrome and keep up to 60 tab open just to remember what they need.
I just spent half a day searching for proper extension in chrome and opera.
I feel so frustrated and powerless in front of browser developpement, I have to tell it. I would gladly pay 20$ per year to keep that function there, a single button sending ctrl+B command, so simple and already coded.
Firefox was my only browser for years, I leave you with that. Now I'm going to download and try the new internet explorer.

You can find the link to open the bookmarks in the sidebar at the top of the bookmark menu button list that opens if you click the folder button (Show your bookmarks) next to the bookmarks star on the Navigation Toolbar.
You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.
*Classic Theme Restorer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/
*You can check out the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.
*You can find extra toolbar buttons and more toolbar settings in Customize (3-bar Firefox menu button > Customize)
In current Firefox releases (29 and later), that have have the Australis user interface, the orange Firefox menu button has been replaced by the three-bar Firefox Menu button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar and this button is always visible, whether you have the menu bar visible or hidden<br>A consequence of this location is that you no longer can hide the Navigation Toolbar
*There is a star like button next to the search bar on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current web page and a "Show your bookmarks" button next to it to open the Bookmarks in a drop down menu.<br>You can find "Show All Bookmarks" to open the Bookmarks Manager (Library) at the bottom of this drop-down list
*If you bookmark a page then "Bookmark This Page" in the Bookmarks menu changes to "Edit This Bookmark"
*You can make the title bar visible via the "Title Bar" button at the bottom left in the Customize palette window
It is still possible to have the menu bar visible via the right-click context menu of a toolbar to have menus like the File menu with Print (Ctrl+P) and Print Preview and the Bookmarks menu available.

Oracle's web site is one of the most frustrating I have ever used

Hi,
There are two major issues with oracles main web site: lack of consistency and lack of information.
I would challenge anyone to draw any sort of coherent information architecture map of the oracle property. It would be a dogs breakfast because there is no consistency in how the site is laid out. Consequently a new user has no idea where to go to get the information you want. Sometimes you are directed to downloads from landing pages and other times its more product information. But it's rarely what you expect.
Secondly, take for example the download a the BPEL Process Manager for JBoss. I can't even find that page now where I downloaded it from... But, nowhere in the download page, and nowhere in the 100+MB download is there any explanation of what JBoss versions are supported. Just unbelievable.
If I did not have to use the web site, I would never go near it!
Cheers,
The Captn.

Actually, I find there is an amazing amount of consistency. I believe that Oracle's technology web face is organized as a set of portals. Let me walk you through an example:
Start at Oracle's main tech page, Oracle Technet at http://otn.oracle.com . That page, and virtually all those below, are organized as follows:
Top banner - log in, search (not particularily good),
Top shortcuts - quick links to First glance, Download, Documentation, Forums, Samples and Tutorial portals
Left nav bar - Product, Technology (overlapping product or OSS), Architecture, Community portals by category
Right Nav bar - Portal specific navigation to docs, demos, downloads, tutorials, etc.
Center - the actual content of this portal
So, if I'm looking for BPM for JBoss, knowing that's a middeware product, I'd go to the Left Nav bar, Products: Middleware to get to the Middleware portal.
That portal has the same general layout as above, so I concentrate on the center section. Just below the enormous (and confusing) picture, I notice the Fusion Middleware Family links which includes BPEL Process Manager. Click to get to that portal, and
That portal has the same general layout as above. This one's an end portal as it's got references to documentation, downloads, and white papers. It's may have the information I'm looking for. In fact, it's got the link to the download page you want.
On that download page, I note, close to the bottom is an older download of BPM for JBoss, and it specifies "Oracle BPEL Process Manager 10.1.2.0.2 for JBOSS (v3.2.6) ". That is the older one, so I assume the newer download is either for that version or a newer version.
Aside from that, some of Oracle's better kept secrets are their Certification Matrices. In general, you could check http://www.oracle.com/technology/support/metalink/index.html and for App Server matrix, look at http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/files/oracle_soa_certification_101310.html
Hope that helps.
