This is how I figured out to update my bios, hope it can help someone else.
Moderators, could you make this sticky?

This is normal an also the same with other phone brands and OS. Even on android and IOS the call volume is different from the general volume of the phone. If you have a non-lumia nokia phone, it is also the same.

Read this if you can't hear callers or voicemail o...

If you can no longer hear callers, cannot hear your voicemail, and are tearing your hair out trying to get any help from the obvious sources (your service provider, Nokia, your local store) - do not panic.
Call 121, as if you are making a vm call. While it is connecting, adjust the volume control button on the right of the phone. You will find that this volume control button operates on a 1-10 scale and is completely different from the one that is normally adjustable from the main screen, which operates on a 1-30 scale. Hopefully you will start to hear the recorded voice and all will be well.
This is not mentioned anywhere in the handbook or any of the online resources. I eventually found a clue via a different help site - but couldn't find where the 2nd volume control was. Thank goodness I eventually stumbled upon it by accident.
I know I am not the only one to have lost connection with a caller half-way through a conversation. It must be a design fault of some sort. I am just relieved that I did not follow the Nokia diagnostics advice to reset my phone to factory settings (after backing up etc etc), or pay out vast ££s for the privilege of sending off my phone for a non-existent repair.
I am not techy - but I am posting this in the hope that it will save others the frustration, expense and time I have wasted over the past 3 days trying to get any sense out of Vodafone and Nokia. (I am sorry if that breaches some form of discussion board protocol - but it is a fact.)
If anyone from Nokia is reading this will you PLEASE update your handbooks to include this information, and take account of it within your online diagnostics page, which told me to restore factory settings. (Fortunately I have no idea how to backup data on my phone, and the advice didn't tell me either.)
If anyone from Vodafone is reading this, will you PLEASE train your sales staff and helpdesk staff to understand this problem.
Feeling calmer now ... off to make a large mug of coffee.

This is normal an also the same with other phone brands and OS. Even on android and IOS the call volume is different from the general volume of the phone. If you have a non-lumia nokia phone, it is also the same.

Read this if you can receive, but not send email

If you can receive, but cannot send email on your iPhone, try the following:
Add your outgoing Server Port Number to your "Outgoing Mail Server Name"
Example: smtp.example.com:XXXX
where XXXX is your Outgoing Server Port Number ( eg. 25 )
For specifics on how to do this, read on.
From the Home Screen, select:
Settings
*Mail,Contacts ...*
your email Account ex: [email protected]
Scroll down to Outgoing Mail Server
Then select your outgoing mail server *SMTP smtp.example.com*
Select Primary Server smtp.example.com
Host Name change smtp.example.com to smtp.example.com:XXXX
where XXXX is your Outgoing Server Port Number.
This worked great, but unfortunately this helpful hint could not be found on the Apple support forum ... until now
Hope this helps!

This worked for me too! (iPhone 3G 2.02). Apple's once-over-lightly help with this issue is really lame. I thought better of Apple but they are turning into just another Dell or Microsoft.

Cannot open iPhoto. I get this command, " you can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto.

I tried downloading iPhoto library manager as suggested by a pervious post, but even with Safari and Firefox it will not download. The dmg image disappears before I can click on it and I get a command that says "it does not work with this architecture". I'm using a G-5 Power PC Mac running OS 10.5.8. Any other suggestions? Thanks!

Likely that is for IntelMacs only.
If the iPhoto Library was ever "touched" by a later version of iPhoto, then you get the can't open message.
Create a new photo library
                           Quit iPhoto.
                           Hold down the Option key as you open iPhoto.
                           In the window that appears, click Create New.
                           Type a name and choose a location to store the new photo library.
                           Click Save.                           The iPhoto Source list shows your new, empty photo library. Any photos you import are added to this library.                                                      You can switch to another library you’ve created at any time.

Read this if you want to replace your CD/DVD

The best replacement is the Pioneer DVR-110blk (the blk stand for black), it writes 56x CD-R, CDRW, DVD-R, 16x DVD+R, 16x Dual Layer & DVD-RAM.
It is recognised by OSX 10.4 & works best using the latest Roxio Toast ( it also recognised by itunes & can be used in iDVD using a small program called patchburn - http://www.patchburn.de/ )
To install the drives use this guide:
http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/iMacg4/imacg4takeapart.html
The reason I recommend this drive is that it is very reliable & fast - I have burnt DVD's (2gb-4gb) in 2-4 minutes. It is also quite easy to make it region free by using a program called DVRFlash & new region free firmware - discussion & downloads can be found here:
http://forum.rpc1.org/viewforum.php?f=30
So for about £35 (www.dabs.com) you do truly get a Superdrive.
PS You need a Philips screwdriver, Torx screwdriver & Thermal Grease!
iMac G4 800mhz 17" 1GB ram Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Hey PROvider,
What is the difference in the DVR-110D, and the DVR-110 ? Isn't the DVR-110DBK the same as the DVR-110D except its black and not beige?
Also, on this site: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/optical-drives/superdrives/powermac/
It lists the DVR-110D & DVR-110DBK as writing 40X CD, 16X DVD, and 8X DVD-DL. You mentioned 56X CD and 16X DVD & DVD-DL.
Is the DVR-110BK (the one you mentioned) different than the DVR-110DBK and why do you recommend the black over the beige?
Thanks,
Tyler

I keep receiving this message "You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto" You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto."

I keep getting this message. What do I do? You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto.

Can't open iPhoto after installation .Displays message :You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto

Can't open the program after Installing . Shows message " You can't open your current current photo library using this version of photo.
Made several attemps in fresh instalaltion without any success.

So I assume it is version 9.3, not sure?
Look at the application in the Finde, if you cannot launch it.
Select your iPhoto application in in the Applications folder and use the command "File > Get Info". What does the Info panel show in the "General" brick?
If it says 9.4.3, try to launch iPhoto by clicking the iPhoto icon in the Applications folder. Does that work?

Yet AGAIN! "You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto"

I have read every thread on this topic I could find in these forums, and tried most solutions, and I still can't get iPhoto to work.
Equipment: MacBook Pro June 2010, OS 10.6.8. Bought a Macbook Air February 2012, OS 10.7.2
Not sure why, but I can't open iPhoto. Here's what I have tried.
Original message on MBPro: "You can’t open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto".
1. Tried to rebuild library as per this thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/8429269#8429269. I get the list of checkboxes, but when I hit "okay" I get the same "you can't open your current photo library ..." message again.
2. Ran software update - no sign that iPhoto is out of date.
3. Copied new version of iPhoto from brand new MBAir to MBPro, replacing older version . Got same "you can't open your current photo library ..." message again.
4. Tried to rebuild library using new version of iPhoto - guess what - same message.
5. Downloaded free trial version of iPhoto Library Manager as suggested in the thread referenced above. The dmg loads to my desktop just fine but nothing happens when I click on it -- this has never happened before. Perhaps it is looking for iPhoto, which of course I can't get to work.
So I have been unable to access my old iPhoto library with (sob) thousands and thousands of family photos in it. I run TimeMachine on to an external hard drive every hour so I hope that if my iPhoto library is corrupted, there is a safe copy on that external drive ...
Between this hassle -- hours of time wasted -- and recent debacle of upgrading iTunes which erased my library and all of my playlists, which also took hours and hours to restore ... my 25 year devotion to Apple products is taking a major hit. I'm getting very weary of heart-pounding fear every time a new software upgrade arrives ... but that's a topic for another time. ;-)
Thank you very much indeed for all suggestions.

I'm going to start from scratch as the link you references is very, very old.
Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and try to create a new, test library and import some photos. If you are able to then the problem lies with your current library. If you get the same message then maybe the iPhoto application is the problem.
Try the following again: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of your library and apply the three fixes in order as necessary.
Fix #1
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your HD/User/Home()/ Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your HD/User/Home()/Library /Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #3
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
If all of these fail there's one more option:
Start over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
2. Open the library package like this.
Click to view full size
3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
4. Drag the each subfolder in the Originals folder (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the entire Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
Click to view full size
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.

Getting message: 'You can't open your current photo library using this...

Hello,
I use iPhoto 6.0.6. After inserting a CD with a friend's photos, I got the error message: 'You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto. You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto.' The only option is to quit.
This now happens every time I try to open iPhoto. I have tried to upgrade, but am I right in presuming that I need to pay for anything above 6.0.6 (which I don't want to do at the moment)?
I get the message every time I open iPhoto, meaning it is completely unusable.
Please can anyone help?
Kind regards,
Dan

Hi, honeytrappist. Any time iPhoto has access to any iPhoto library that was created by a later version it will put up that error message. When iPhoto burns a CD, it creates an iPhoto Library on the CD. So if someone with iPhoto 7 gives you a CD burned in that version, it's going to result in that error message whenever the CD is in your Mac and you try to open iPhoto 6.
If someone who has iP 7 wants to give pictures to you, ask him to export them to the desktop and then burn you a CD in the Finder. That way they won't come packaged in an iP Library, the error message won't appear, and you'll be able to import them right into your own library.
With a CD that does produce the error message, what you'll have to do is quit iPhoto, extract the pictures you want from the library on the CD to a folder on your desktop, eject the CD, and then import the pictures into iPhoto.

Microsoft Office can't find your license for this application - multiple copies of Office 2013 x32 failing to start, Software Protection Service timing out

We're experiencing a growing problem with our users in several different domains running in to Microsoft Office 2013 x32 'activation' issues. We use KMS for licensing, which works properly, but some of the machines (~20-30 out of 1000+) sporadically
throw the following error:
'Microsoft Office can't find your license for this application. Microsoft Office will now exit.'
We know it's not an issue with the licenses per se, since they work on and off and we can force KMS activation correctly / talk to the KMS servers.
It appears to be an issue with the Software Protection service not starting properly. In Event Viewer, we see the following:
'Software protection service failed to start due to the following error- the service did not respond in a timely fashion.
Event 7000'
This is occurring on a variety of machines in a variety of environments, all fully patched with the latest Office updates. It's inconsistent, and the 'manually restart the Software Protection Service' solution is not viable as it's occurring on many
different workstations. Office repairs have also been unsuccessful.
Has anyone else come across this? Or have any idea why the Software Protection Service might be sporadically failing? Maybe an Office update in the last 2-3 months?
Thanks for any info.

I have just purchased a new macbook and need to sync my iphone with itunes, i understand that you can only sync your phone with one itunes account. I do not want to wipe my iphone when syncing with this new itunes account. Any advice welcome

I have just purchased a new macbook and need to sync my iphone with itunes, i understand that you can only sync your phone with one itunes account. I do not want to wipe my iphone when syncing with this new itunes account. Any advice welcome

1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.

I've backup my iPhoto on WD My Passport. When I try to pull up the photos from the external hard drive onto a different computer, it says "You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto." It says I have to use a later version.

After backing up my photos on a My Passport hard drive I can't open iphoto from the hard drive. It says "You can't open your current photo library using this version of iphoto. You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iphoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iphoto." I have done all the upgrades for iphoto. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

What versions of iPhoto and OS X are on each computer? You can find out by going to your iPhoto application (from the Applications folder), clicking it once to highlight it, and click cmd-i to open its information window. The version number is in the General tab.
Your version of OS X can be found from the Apple menu, then About This Mac.
The latest version of iPhoto (9.5.1) requires OS X 10.9, so if you have an older version of OS X on that computer, you will have to upgrade to Mavericks and then upgrade to the newer iPhoto.

When opening the version of Iphoto i have an error message appears that says; You can't open your current iphoto library using this version of Iphoto. You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iphoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iphoto. What? If I can't open the current library using the latest version of iphoto, and I am asked to make changes the the newest version!!! I'm asked to run in circles chasing my tail...I had a new hard drive installed about 6 weeks ago. I am running MAC OS 10.5.8

What version of iPhoto do you have? If you're on 10.5 then you're not running the latest iPhoto
Any chance that the library was opened with another version?
Simplest solution will be to just restore from your back up.

Transfered photos from IMac with Iphoto 9 to a mac book with Iphoto 11 now Iphoto 09 errors out saying "You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto."

Transfered photos from IMac with Iphoto 9 to a mac book with Iphoto 11 now Iphoto 09 errors out saying "You can’t open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto.You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto." We have not updated or changed anything on the IMac all we did is transfer photos. Any help would be appreciated.

LarryHN is correct. The only way this message occurs is if the iPhoto Library database is upgraded to a newer version.
You could try holding SHIFT-OPT-COMMAND when launching iPhoto from the dock and checking only "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" and hope it restores the previous database prior to the upgrade.
If that doesn't work, you can install iPhoto '11 on your iPhoto '09 computer. If I understood the iPhoto '11 Mac App License agreeement correctly, you can install it on any personal, non-commerical computer you own running 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7.

When trying to open iPhoto the computer says: 'The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto.' So I click 'upgrade' Then it says: 'You can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto.' Etcetera...

Is your Apple Intel-based, poppelmacbook? If not, you should consider treating yourself to a new Mac. Last December I gave up my old because it just could not update...anything because it was not Intel-based. Updating everything on this OS to 10.9 has been confusing for me, but I just could not work with that old Mac because the updates were too smart? for my 10.6. It is upstairs now...for visiting family: games, garage band, etc.--things I never did use. Apple refurbished and purchase the extended warranty. Apple loyalist since late 1980's.
