Really need some help with this low earpiece volume issue.

I'm taking my iPhone to an Apple Store Genius tomorrow to check out the low volume in the earpiece. Has anyone else taken their phone in to an Apple Store and had the issue addressed? Are Geniuses just saying it is within spec? Has Apple published an article on this?
I realize that people are also frustrated over the low speakerphone volume, but the low volume in the earpiece is particularly concerning.
While traveling down the road it is very difficult to hear the person on the other end of the phone when using just the earpiece (no earbuds, no BT headset). The volume while using the earbuds is plenty loud.
Can anyone please shed some new light on this? I have had my iPhone for one week and I've got a bad feeling in my gut that this is a hardware issue and the earpiece speaker can't go any louder. Bummer.
(Obviously, all of my volume settings are maxed out).
-Joe

When the iPhones were first released, some people reported on their posts that they were able to take them to the Genius Bar, have a tech test it out, the tech would agree that the volume sounded low, and get their phone swapped right away. Unfortunately, there is no cut and dry answer because people have reported all sorts of different things- that the various software updates have fixed their volume, messing with the volume setting within iTunes, etc.
Personally, I think it is a software glitch. Why? I did this: I was playing the iPod without the earbuds and the volume was only set midrange. I covered the speaker on the bottom, cranked up the volume, and the sound coming out of the receiver was MUCH louder than it ever is when I am using the iPhone on a call. That to me indicates that the low volume it just a glitch that can be fixed, because it CAN obviously sound louder, just within a different function. Hope that makes sense.
Good luck tomorrow.

Error 1603: Need some help with this one

When installing iTunes I first get an error box saying
"Error 1406: Could not write value to key \Software\classes\.cdda\OpenWithList\iTunes.exe. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel."
The second one (after I click on Ignore on the last box) I get it this one:
"Error: -1603 Fatal error during installation.
Consult Windows Installer Help (Msi.chm) or MSDN for more information"
Strange thing is that I do have full access to my computer (or atleast in all other cases I have had since I am the only one with an account on it).
I have done my best in trying to solve it myself but I'm running out of ideas. I have downloaded latest versions from the website and tried installing Quicktime separately. I have also tried removing Quicktime using add/or remove programs though I just I didn't dare to take full removal because it said something about system files.
Anyway I really need some help with this, anyone got any ideas?

Do you know how to count backwards? Do you know how to construct a loop? Do you know what an autodecrementor is? Do you know how to use String length? Do you know Java arrays start with index 0 and run to length-1? Do you know you use length on arrays too? Do you know what System.out.println does?
Show us what you have, there isn't anything here that isn't easily done the same as it would be on paper.

Need some help with this Design. Not sure if it can be done.

I am a full time RVer. I have a complex system installed in my RV. I am trying to share a wireless or use my AE to feed internet to the devices in my rack and allow my Apple TV to connect to my MBP over gigabit for streaming reasons.
Is there a way to share my internet to the AE so that it will feed the 3 ports? Can I somehow connect to a hotspot and share that internet connection to the other devices on my network wired and wireless?? I am mainly concerned with getting internet to the ATV while connected to it via ethernet for the gigabit connection.
It seems that I can connect the AE to a hotspot or WAP, but then I loose the ability to turn bridged mode off so that it will hand out DHCP ip addresses to the ethernet devices. I cannot extend any network unless the hotspot is using an apple device for its WAP. This is what apple told me when I was trying to extend my Linksys WAP4400N.
Any ideas or advice here would be great. I am just stuck for a solution to what I want to accomplish.
Thanks

One possible solution....(if I understand correctly what you're trying to accomplish with what you have to work with) I'm assuming that the Linksys has no internet connection in the RV and isn't really needed in my idea below.....or do you have a satellite connection (or some other internet source besides a public wireless network?
You could have your MBP join the wireless network, set up internet sharing (see OS X help) and share from airport to ethernet, connect an ethernet cable from MBP to WAN port on the Extreme, set the Extreme's connection sharing to "share a public IP", ignore the double NAT error (or you may be able to bridge it, I can't remember if the MBP will hand out several IPs but I think it will), and plug your Apple TV into a LAN port on the Extreme. Come to think about it, you really don't even need the Extreme unless you need other clients to connect, just plug the Apple TV into the MBP.
hope it helps

REALLY need some help with my problem (Netgear and...

Hi everyone,
Well... where to start really.
This morning around 5am, I lost connection to the net, yet my Netgear (DG834 wired) showed an uptime of 117 hours, so it showed no reboot. It seems my IP profile was raised (As it was low before for my sync).
I had no reboot it seems, but my noise margin went up to 9db from 6db. This is fine as it means I should be getting around 6.5meg IP profile going by the sync. Anyway (This is complicated to explain but bear with me).
My current IP profile is now 7.15K. I know this will come down now to match my sync at 9db (Which should be 6.5meg).
What is happening, is that any change made to my broadband (Like my IP profile being raised this morning) means that I cannot then connect to the net, and anything connected (Like Xbox Live etc) disconnects, even though the router shows no disconnect, and all the lights are green.
The only way for me to reconnect to the internet then is to MANUALLY reboot the router, because no matter what website etc I try to view, it just says "Looking for..." in the bottom left corner of the browser, and I can't connect to anything like Xbox Live etc.
Can anyone explain why this is happening with the Netgear router? Shouldn't any change, like an IP profile increase not affect my broadband connection? It seems whenever a change is made BT side, I have to then manually reboot the router to get online.
I wondered if anyone with a netgear, or anyone with some knowledge on this could tell me why. This could save me a lot of headaches down the line and stop me having noise margin raised etc because I have to manually reboot the router to get it working again. I just thought that any change, like an increase in IP profile etc, shouldn't affect my connnection and force me to have to manually reboot the router to get it up and running again.
I hope you understood what I was trying to explain, and thanks in advance for any responses.

Hi John. Thanks for responding.
I have been through the options on the router and can't find one that says auto connect at all.
It seems the router is not disconnecting though (Like this morning when the IP profile raised), as the uptime on both WAN and LAN were showing 117 hours, and all green lights were on, on the router. It's just when a change on the BT side is made, it won't let me get on the net until I do a manual reboot. It's all very baffling to me really.
I tried googling my problem to no avail also.

REALLY need some help with transparent background

This is really starting to bug me now as I have searched the forums and the web for hours and still cannot get this to work.
I am creating a simple one page site at http://freeselfhelpebooks.org/50ofTheBestPDProducts/
I want the header and footer image to have a transparent background with only the text showing, so that the text shows on the background image.
So far I have created the header image with a transparent background Modify > Canvas > Canvas Colour > Transparent all good so far. I have added some text. Then I save as file type PNG 32, however I still get the background as white as you can see above.
I have tried PNG 8 with alpha transparency, no transparency but to no avail. I have even downloaded Photoshop CS6 and have the same issues. What am I doing wrong here?

First of all, your header graphic is fine; it's a transparent PNG. Your footer is a JPEG, which does not support transparency, so you need to resave that file into a different format (like PNG32, or PNG8 w/alpha transparency).
As I was trying to suggest, if you're confused about your graphics, check them in a graphics editor or viewer, not in a web page inside a web browser. Web development is a complex beast, and a lot can go wrong.
In the HTML of your web page, there is a class called "content" being applied to tables and images. This class has a background image being applied to it, which is responsible for the white background on those elements.

Really Need Some Help with CME 8.6 using IOS as Firewall and Anyconnect VPN on Phones

Hello,
I have a 2911 Router with IOS Security and Voice enabled and we are using CME 8.6. I am using a built-in Anyconnect VPN on 3 phones that are for remote users and thus I needed to enable security zones on the router which works because the remote phones will boot up, get their phone configs and I am able to call those remote phones from an outside line.
The issue I am having is that when I try to dial a remote phone connected via the VPN through port g0/0 from and internal office phone, i.e., NOT involving the PSTN then there is no audio. It's as if no audio is going back and forth. When I take off the security zones from the virtual-template interface and the g0/0 interface then the audio works great and I can reach the phone from internal as I am supposed to.
Could someone take a peek at my security config and see why audio would not be traveling through the VPN when I have my security zones turned on?

I think your ACL could be the culprit.
ip access-list extended router-access
permit tcp any host 66.111.111.111 eq 443
Would you be able to change the entry to permit ip any any (just for testing purpose) and then test to see if the calls function properly. If they work fine then we know that we need to open som ports there.

=============================
==========================
I'm getting a error saying Paragraph is not a function, but nor is mystory.paragraph(0) , so i'm just trying to figure out what synax goes before that.
=============================
The text that is bold is the prolbem i'm having. I just got a Javascript bible on how to program in javascript. How would i make that function work. I'm sure its simple. I'm just hoping I have If some Then ({) command follow by what I want it to do is correct. And I'm understanding this. there is so many different syntax's to choose from, any help would be appreciated. I work for a Newspaper company, and Indesign CS3 Javascript coding is a bit diffrent from normal javascript.

Okie, I'm making progress now. Because well it didnt crash, but then again, LOL the script didnt apply the paragraph styles when I selected the text!
any suggestions?
I'm also getting a weird error now with the loop, but I also dont think its working because maybe the myStyle and myStle1 aren't applying themselves correctly, in the first part of the script.
this is the Error Message:

I really need some help with rendering

I am creating a video for a client, and he is going to stream it through his own player. He requires the video to play using dimentions of 430 x 242.
He wants to keep the file sizes as small as possible.
I am currently creating his videos using a 1280 x 720 composition, as this is the same aspect ratio as his specific dimentions.
I am unsure of the best settings to use for the best quality. I've tried MOV but am getting files that are 600+ MB, and I'm also trying MPEG4 but getting blurry, washed out results that look nothing like the preview in AE. I've tried Flash and it stutters.
My questions:
1. Should I render in 1280 x 720 and just ask him to re-size them through his player? (I assume most players can do this?) or should I render to the dimensions of 430 x 242? He doesn't have too much knowledge of video.
2. What is the best file format and settings?
3. Is it possible to re-set the render option defaults? I've played around with all of the setting so much that I can't remember how each file format was set before I started this project. I've tried re-starting AE but it still leaves me with the same settings as when I closed it.
Every time I post a question like this I get people telling me to 'read the basics' or 'we get asked this time and time again etc'. Please note that I have a disability and am finding this very tough - if it isn't too much trouble I'd just appriciate someone giving the information so that I can learn in from here. It will need to be explained simply as yes I am fairly new to AE.
I just can't seem to find anything which works. MPEG4's are giving me a suitable file size but then look blurred and washed out.
Many thanks for any help.

First question: What player is your client going to be using to play this? Everything depends on that. For example, if he's going to be playing the file using QuickTime Player, then the answer is pretty easy: create a QuickTime movie (.mov).
> Should I render in 1280 x 720 and just ask him to re-size them through his player?
No, not if you've been told that he wants a 430x242 file. If you make a big movie (in terms of frame dimensions) and have him resize it, then you're going to create much larger files than necessary.
> I am unsure of the best settings to use for the best quality. I've tried MOV but am getting files that are 600+ MB
The QuickTime movie (.mov) format is just a container format. It can contain video encoded using any of a large number of codecs, with any of a range of quality settings. The default is a lossless compression (using the Animation codec) that creates perfect images at the expense of larger files.
After you've added your composition to the render queue, choose QuickTime as your format in the Output Module Settings dialog box and then click the Format Options button in the Output Module Settings dialog box. You can choose a compression type, set quality, et cetera. People seem to like the H.264 codec for a good balance of size and quality.
See "Encoding and compression options for movies" for more information.

Need some help with this new setup I have

This is what I got for my new setup
A64 3000 939
K8N Neo4 Platinum MSI
1 gig of Mushkin duel chan. ddr 400
Gigabyte GeForce 6600 GT PCI-E
The ram I have is duel chan. I have no idea what this means Or what the ram needs to be set to is it faster than non duel ddr?

Quote from: igmox
it is like water flowing through two parallel pipes instead of one.
Quote from: mrbell84
Another example you could think of duel channel memory could be like a 2 lane motorway. You close one lane and cars can only go down 1 lane, but when you open another lane up thats another path for the cars to travel
Quote from: omnikron
One more thing is my psu going to be ok with that setup
Quote from: mrbell84
Yes your Power supply has 24 pin atx connector and also its a ATx2.0, which means its SLI/PCI-E Complient

Need some help with this project (methods)

Ok. in this project it states the following:
Write an application that rolls a die and displays the reuslt. Let the user pick the number of sides on the die. Use the Die Class to represent the die in your program.
This is what i have so far, but im confused on how to utilize the Die class because it keeps giving me errors:
P4_3.java:
Code:
import cs1.Keyboard;
import java.util.Random;
// extends the Die class...
public class P4_3 extends Die
public static void main (String[] args)
{ // asks the user how many sides of the die there is.
int userSides;
System.out.println("How many sides of the die do you want?");
userSides = Keyboard.readInt();
System.out.println ("You rolled "+Die.die);
}Die.java:
Code:
// the die class
import cs1.Keyboard;
import java.util.Random;
public class Die extends P4_3
public static void Die()
// rolls the dice
Random generator = new Random();
int die;
die = generator.nextInt(P4_3.userSides) +1;
}It keeps giving me:
cannot resolve symbol
symbol : variable die
location: class Die
System.out.println ("You rolled "+Die.die);
^
cannot resolve symbol
symbol : variable userSides
location: class P4_3
die = generator.nextInt(P4_3.userSides) +1;Can somebody point me in the right direction?
Thanks, ps2cho
(PS: Please keep it as simple as possible, dont give me some crazy wacky tough code because i wont understand a word of it, no matter how hard you try to explain it. Simple simple simple!)
Thanksss

Who can I contact about getting some help with this ongoing (several months) issue???

I will try to make a long story at least somewhat shorter.Comcast customer for 20 years (yes - literally 20 uninterrupted years). 8 years of service at current address.Several months ago I restructure my bill - all my promotions etc had run out and I wanted to reduce my bill. Ended up being told my customer support that I could save money by getting the "Triple Play" (I've NEVER had comcast phone service, I have my own VOIP phone solution). They told me I didn't have to "use" the phone, just getting it hooked up would save me money. Fine.Internet service was not supposed to have been touched / changed at all. A few days after making these changes, a large box from Comcast shows up at the house. It has TWO cable modems in the box. Not sure why they sent them - I already had the latest cable modem (that was capable of supporting the phone service they needed to activate). Notified comcast about the shipment. They said don't worry about it. Okay, I left them in the box. Tech shows up at house while I'm working. Wife called and I talked to tech. He said he just needed to get some "numbers" off the modem to activate the phone service (I'm in the IT industry - I will assume he wanted MAC / SN#'s). I made sure he was making no changes to the modem itself - I've got my own home network setup. The Comcast cable modem serves as a gateway and it's in bridged mode. Always has been. I have my own router etc. So a week or so after that visit, the modem started losing connectivity. It happens almost EVERY DAY and it's almost always in the later afternoon (5:30-7pm EST) and sometimes late at night. When this happens, the ONLY way to get the connection back is to unplug modem power AND the coax cable input. It will then restart the modem and it comes back. Simply unplugging power and restarting will not do it. After multiple hours spent with support on the phone (we activated the newest modem they sent - same issue. Activated the other modem they sent - same issue. In fact they weren't able to put one of them in bridged mode at all). They said a tech needed to come out. Tech comes out - checks the feed to the house. Said there is a lot of noise in the lines. (Please note that there is one main comcast feed to my house - it splits outside (in the comcast locked box) into two feeds which enter the house. One feed splits and runs the upstairs TV's (Digital Adapters) and the downstairs STB / DVR. The other feed goes DIRECTLY to my cable modem. I ran those feeds myself when I moved in this house. Never had an issue before. Cable TV never has issue - only internet. So the tech replaced some ends on the upstairs line (Cable TV - he said that signal noise could cause issues with the internet). I then helped the tech run a BRAND NEW line from the split at the comcast box, directly to the modem. He said the signal / noise looked much better. Next day - same ISSUE - modem dropped connection. Pull power and coax cable, reseat, modem restarts, signal comes back. I called support again. They gave me an incident #. Said they would have a "Crew supervisor" contact me, since it's obvious the problem lies outside of my home. A tech called and left a voice mail on my phone (was working when it came in, couldn't answer). They did not leave a call back number. Called support again. They told me a tech would call me back and was advised to leave a call back number. That was MONDAY of last week. Haven't heard anything. The contact # is my cell...no missed calls. Is there another number I can call or email address so I can escalate this issue? Having to disconnect / reconnect the modem EVERY DAY at least once is getting tiresome. I'm in the Richmond Virginia area if it matters at all. Thanks.

Need some help with threads...

Hello all,
I am working on a project at work, and I am not the best programmer in the world. I have been trying to get my head around this for a couple of days and just cannot get it to work.
I am writing an instrumentation control program that will have three threads. One is the GUI, one will receive control information and set up the hardware, and one will check the hardware status and report it to the GUI periodically. I plan on using the invokeLater() method to communicate the status to the GUI and change the status display in the GUI. Communication from the GUI to the controller thread and from the status thread to the controller thread I had planned on being piped input/output stream as appropriate. I have a control class and a status class that need to be communicated over these piped streams. In some trial code I have been unable to wrap the piped input/output streams with object input/output streams. I really need some help with this. Here is the main thread code:
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;*
*public class PlayingWithThreads1 {*
public static void main(String[] args) {*
* PipedOutputStream outputPipe = new PipedOutputStream();*
* ObjectOutputStream oos = null;*
* ReceiverThread rt = new ReceiverThread(outputPipe);*
// Start the thread -- First try*
* Thread t = new Thread(rt);*
t.start();*
// Wrap the output pipe with an ObjectOutputStream*
try*
oos = new ObjectOutputStream(outputPipe);*
catch (IOException e)*
System.out.println(e);*
// Start the thread -- Second try*
//Thread t = new Thread(rt);*
//t.start();*
/** Send an object over the pipe. In reality this object will be a
class that contains control or status information */
try
if (!oos.equals(null))
oos.writeObject(new String ("Test"));
catch (IOException e)
try
Thread.sleep(5000);
catch (InterruptedException e)
I read somewhere that it matters where you start the thread relative to where you wrap piped streams with the object streams. So, I tried the two places I felt were obvious to start the thread. These are noted in the comments. Here is the code for the thread.
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;
public class ReceiverThread implements Runnable {
private PipedInputStream inputPipe = new PipedInputStream();
private ObjectInputStream inputObject;
ReceiverThread (PipedOutputStream outputPipe)
System.out.println("Thread initialization - start");
try
inputPipe.connect(outputPipe);
inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);
catch (IOException e)
System.out.println(e);
System.out.println("Thread initialization - complete");
public void run()
System.out.println("Thread started");
try
if (inputObject.available() > 0)
System.out.println(inputObject.read());
catch (IOException e)
System.out.println(e);
Through testing I have determined that no matter where I start the thread, the thread never gets past the "inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);" assignment.
Could someone please help me with this? There are other ways for me to write this program, but this is the one that I would like to make work.
Many thanks in advance,
Rob Hix

Thanks for the help, but that did not work. I tried flushing the ObjectOutputStream and it is still hanging when initializing the thread.
Here is a better look at the code since I was helped to figure out how to insert it:
The main method:
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;
public class PlayingWithThreads1 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        PipedOutputStream outputPipe = new PipedOutputStream();
        ObjectOutputStream oos = null;
        ReceiverThread rt = new ReceiverThread(outputPipe);
        // Start the thread -- First try
        //Thread t = new Thread(rt);
        //t.start();
        // Wrap the output pipe with an ObjectOutputStream
        try
            oos = new ObjectOutputStream(outputPipe);
            oos.flush();
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.println(e);
        // Start the thread -- Second try
        Thread t = new Thread(rt);
        t.start();
        /* Send an object over the pipe. In reality this object will be a
         * class that contains control or status information */
        try
            if (!oos.equals(null))
                oos.writeObject(new String ("Test"));
                oos.flush();
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.pringln(e);
        try
            Thread.sleep(5000);
        catch (InterruptedException e)
}The thread code:
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;
public class ReceiverThread implements Runnable {
    private PipedInputStream inputPipe = new PipedInputStream();
    private ObjectInputStream inputObject;
    ReceiverThread (PipedOutputStream outputPipe)
        System.out.println("Thread initialization - start");
        try
            inputPipe.connect(outputPipe);
            inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.println(e);
        System.out.println("Thread initialization - complete");
    public void run()
        System.out.println("Thread started");
        try
            if (inputObject.available() > 0)
                System.out.println(inputObject.read());
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.println(e);
}Does anyone else have and ideas?

Need some help with ".png" image.

Good day everyone. Here's the run down. I need to add an
image (image "A") ontop of another image (image"B"). Image "B" is a
paterned background. And Image "A" a logo with a transparent
background.
As it stands I have image "A" as a "png" and as you know....
they are fri**ing huge! Haveing it as a "gif" only presents me with
the IE6 problem of it adding a colored background to the image.
So I'm stuck! Can any one tell me or point me in the
difection of a tutorial to tell me the best way to add an image
with a transparent background in Dreamweaver.
Really need some help with this!
Thanks all!

Before going much further I'd recommend reconsidering the use
of a textured background. They are usually included for the benefit
of the site owner only, and likely to annoy visitors. Studies on
the subject suggest they often lead to usability problems. I do
like to header graphic, but at 200K it's kinda heavy and can
probably be optimized.

Need some help with guitar setup...

jeez, never thought i'd be asking a question like this after playing for like 20 years, but i need some help with a guitar setup for mac. i'm gonna list out a lot of crap here that prolly doesn't affect anything at all, but here goes.
Imac 17inch G4 - latest updated OS X... 10.4, or 5, or whatever. garageband 3.0
digitech gnx-3
alesis sr-16
sure mic's
yamaha e203 keyboard
here's the setup:
yamaha is on its own on a usb uno midi interface, sure's connected to gnx's xlr port, alesis connected to gnx's jam-a-long input, '87 kramer vanguard connected to gnx's guitar input. currently running headphones out on gnx to line in on mac.
here's the problem:
everything works beautifully, but my guitar sounds like crap. if i plug headphones into the gnx, it sounds beautiful. that makes me think its some kind of level issue between the gnx's output, and the mac's input, but nothing seems to fix it.
by sounding like crap, i mean way too much bass. sound is muddy, blurry, not crisp... aka crap. i've tried altering both output and input on mac and gnx, and i cant get a combination that works. the gnx has a s/pdif out, can the mac accept that as input? might that help? short of running the gnx to my marshal half stack and mic'ing that, anyone have any suggestions, or use a similar setup?
any help would be greatly appreciated!

anyone? ... any suggestions? I think it might be an issue with the gnx pre-amping the signal as it goes out, and then the mac amping it on the way in, giving me a buttload more signal than i need, but since i cant find a happy level, i'm not really sure. i really dont want to resort to mic'ing my marshall... even with the volume almost off, my jcm900 is WAY too loud for apartment use. its not like i really NEED the guitar to sound perfect, i only use garageband to sketch out ideas for songs between myself and bandmates, but its really annoying to not have my customary crisp distortion. my bass player keeps telling me to use the built in amps, but, not to dis a practically free program, but the built in amps blow, at least after 10 years of marshall tube amplification they do. if anyone has any suggestions that might be helpfull on how i might resolve this, i would be your best friend for life and go to all your birthday parties

Really need some help with this low earpiece volume issue.
