Restriction Settings EPIC FAIL

I set restrictions on my daughter's iPod touch, and ensured all content and apps to 12+ and yet she was able to download the app OkCupid--a social dating network for individuals 18+ only. How is this possible?!?!? Why bother setting up restrictions if a child can still search and download apps unsuitable for their use despite the fact that you've attempted to block this content in the first place?!?

If it is OK Cupit Dating

YOU CAN ALSO FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...

Never Again Nokia ! - EPIC FAIL ¡

The title says it all reason :
I've purchased an n97 for nearly 30000 inr two years back - i know very well that its completely outdated and due to hardware restrictions - it wont ever be updated to anna or belle ¡ . But how come nokia expect me to suffer for their fallacy of putting a mere 128mb ram and 434 mhz processor on their flagship ? I envy these first gen s^3 devices - they've got 2 major updates !- anna /belle and now belle refresh is coming ! Not to count numerous minor updates too ! Why then were we left with pathetic firmware on our devices ! -we never wanted belle or anna atleast make the current one more usable !
I've lost hope in you nokia ! Atleast if you have read numerous requests in here for doing something for s60v5 devices in here - you would not have done this to us !
I pity myself for having bought your flagship and will never again do the mistake of buying a nokia ! Who knows even lumias may suffer the same fate when wp8 arrives !
This is not only a single person expressing his anger here ! There are thousands behind me ! Fall nokia fall - YOU ARE AN 'EPIC FAIL' !

thanks for the the reply -'adrianhughes' but i.ve clicked the contact us but a hell lot times from day one (since i bought my nokia) - it is utter useless ! And i do believe that users have the right to express their feelings here ! - not that it'll change anything ! - but to make sure that we dont give up without a fight !

My iTunes account was disabled: epic fail Apple!

So, here's my story. Last night, I was suddenly aware that I couldn't update apps on my iPhone (4S, up to date), or load new ones. Tried everything, nothing helped. iPad seemed fine. Restored, restarted, resetting as new phone, nothing worked. I went to my local genius bar and spend THREE HOURS with them, where they tried everything as well, resotring, resetting, even swapping the phone, nothing helped. They suggested I contact apple for more help, I completely stumped the entire genius team at this store. Calling apple store support on my way home in a huff, the nice woman on the other line suggested that my account might be disabled. So, upon returning home, I looked up "disabled itunes account" and noticed that to fix this, all one needed to do is change your itunes password. When I did that, everything was fine again. Apps loaded fine, existing apps updated fine as well.
I consider this an epic fail on Apple's part. Mind you, I love the iPhone, have had every model, and would never get another phone. Nevertheless, why was my account disabled? Why is there no phone number to call itunes support? I have to email and wait for them to call back? Why wasn't I sent a message saying that my account was disabled becuase of a potential security breach? My account is in good standing, I barely purchase anything to be honest. The odd small app or two, but that's it. All was valid and in good standing. Why would the geniuses not think to say "maybe it's your itunes account, let's change the password and see what happened." I consider this a collasal failure, making me waste an entire evening, only for it to be a quick fix.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks for the feedback!

why was my account disabled?
Usually it is because of multiple incorrect password entry attempts. Since resetting the password fixed the problem, this would seem to be likely. I can't say with certainty, though.
Why is there no phone number to call itunes support?
Because Apple does not provide telephone support for the iTunes Store,
Why wasn't I sent a message saying that my account was disabled becuase of a potential security breach?
No idea. E-mails are I believe usual in at least some such cases, but whether one would be generated in this specific instance (and perhaps was blocked by a spam filter) I can't say.
Why would the geniuses not think to say "maybe it's your itunes account, let's change the password and see what happened."
Again, no firm idea, but the Geniuses aren't expected to provide support for the iTunes Store, so it probably hasn't arisen in exactly that way before and hence just didn't occur to them in absence of any evidence or notification that the account was disabled.
You can comment to Apple in the matter via their feedback page, if you wish:

Without Warning, OSX 10.6.8 emailer has epic fail

Even my MacGuru of some 17years could not figure what the *wild weasel* malfunction was coming from. He's the one who steered me to use the designated iCloud account page. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, my 10.6.8 emailer *epically failed* to receive email as shown in the InBox. Contacted my MacGuru , whom is also my webmaster who has set up my emailer in past who advised to do a Connection Doctor check. Did one 3X and all a connections green lighted and sent current screenshots as proof of my findings to him along with a screenshot of the InBox of my OSX emailer showing *zero* outside emails since 6:30 AM, July 31,2014. That InBox remains dysfinctional. The strange thing is it does register email I send myself to myself as well as some., nowhere near all , ( as shown by my iCloud account webpage InBox , emails of my webmaster. It was as if fully half of our morning's email dialogue never happened according to my OSX 10.6.8 email InBox. He even informed me everything looks fine from his remote monitoring to which I had to reply, obviously the remote map is clearly *not* the actual territory. I suggested a possible *corrupted* emailer which he responded that it can't happen because all signs show everything is go. So what do I do with that diagnosis when my OSX 10.6.8 *still* is NOT functioning as it normally should forcing me to depend upon the iCloud.com account page for any reliable receiving of email. I can *send* form my on iMac emailer, but reception is totally epic fail. Hence the iCloud.com account webpage is the only reliable alternative.
Any ideas out there? Should I just back-up archive all of my created MailBoxes and trash this piece of dysfunctional emailer garbage and either do a clean install of just the emailer or would an epic fail like this require a clean install of all of OSX 10.6.8? I amForced to staywith OSX 10.6.8 because this is Wacom's he cut-off support version for my the drivers for my Wacom 12X 18 Wacom Intuos as I can not uyet afford the $700 upgrade to an IntuosIII . Measnwhile this iCloud account page is *most* inefficient , but I am left *no* other choice that I've been made aware of . That's why, out of desperation to understand what the OSX emailer app dysfunction is , I came to this open forum.

Maybe a cache got corrupted. Reboot in safe mode then reboot again.
Possibly run OnyX to do even more aggressive cleanups.

Enable A Guest Account So We Could Save Restriction Settings

How about a setting that will enable at boot up an option to log in main user (admin) or Guest account? And in the main user's restriction settings allow you to configure what apps the guest account can access. Then all you would have to do is set that 4 character password prompt for main user and allow guest to log in without a password. Then depending on your restriction settings you could make this thing a little bit more secure for families and multiple users. Any app purchases would still be under main user and need a password. I think this is doable. So say we all! ?

I guess I don't see it as a personal device. Since it has the ability to replace what most users use a laptop for. iPhone's size was holding it back from being the netbook killer. Now we have the larger version the iPad. iPad's OS has already started of on it's own path from the iPhone OS. So why not just put some chrooted dummy guest account option in it. So the multiple user household can have some way to save restriction settings and protect the main account.
My kids (5 and 3)are very good with my old G4 iBook and 1st Gen iPhone. Although there was that one time my son pulled all the keys off the iBook and the iPhone has been dropped like a hundred times on the hardwood but it still works.
If iPad is going to be a wonderful tool to help educate my kids since I didn't have to show my kids how to work the iPhone. They just figured it out. I hope some good EDU apps come out soon.

Can the iPad Mini restriction settings control downloading books on the Kindle Reader App?

I have a lot of books on my Kindle Account, and I'm about to give my kids iPad Minis. I want to put the Kindle Reading App on their devices, as I have a bunch of books that they love on my account, but I also have lots of books that I don't want them reading, just yet. Can the restrictions settings on the Mini create passcode access if they want to download a book on their own?

The restrictions that you use in the settings are only for content from the App Store, iTunes and the iBooks Store. As far as I know, there is no way to restrict access to the Kindle books in the settings. I have the Kindle app myself, but I don't know if there is a way to do what you want to do in the app itself or in your Amazon.com account.

HT201304 iPad Mini restriction settings

CCan anyone tell me where can I find restrictions settings in iPad Mini after 8.1.3 update...???

There should be a Passcodes option just before the Privacy option. You may need to try rebooting:
Rebooting your iDevice
Hold down the Sleep (On-Off) and Home buttons together for about 10-15 seconds or until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears - then let go of the buttons. The device should begin to start up.
If this does not work, then you need to reinstall 8.1.3 by Restoring.

Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

HT201304 Save restriction settings

Is there a way to save restrictions settings so they dont reset every time I turn them off? Our children use our iPad so we enable the restrictions so they CAN'T buy and delete apps. Everytime I turn these off to use for myself they seem to reset and when turning back on I have to set all the settings again.

I agree - let us set the restrictions once and then enable/disable as needed. One easy example is that I restrict access to the App store along with installing or deleting applications for my son but when I want to add/delete an app, I disable restrictions and when done, I have to go in and reestablish ALL of the restricitions I want.

Nokia Social connection bug / problem (Epic Fail)

Hi there,
When you open an application which requires internet connection, the phone checks the saved access points according to their priorities to see if there is an available access point among them and when the phone finds an available access point, it tries to establish a connection. (Normally, WLAN connections come first prior to gsm operator connection (3G or EDGE) in order to save the cost.) This is OK so far.
Now here is the abnormal behavior; when you open the Social application, the phone does not check the saved access points whether they are available or not, it tries to establish the connection right away!! So, if you are somewhere out on the street and have for example 10 or more WLANs saved in your access list (I have 8 in my case), Social app tries to connect each and every one of them without checking whether they are available or not and gives connection fail message after it tries every WLAN access point then finally it reaches the end of the access point list and finally establishes the operator connection. This takes a lot of time and causes useless battery consumption. Most of the time it doesn't connect at all. I have to open any webpage to establish the connection first then I open Social app. Yet, to work around this problem, there is no setting to tell Social app to use a specific access point.
Is there any solution to this "another epic fail"? I'd appreciate if someone help me out on this.
Thank you,

HT201304 I can't remember the four digit code to access the Restrictions settings. Is there a way of resetting it?

I can't remember the four digit code to access the Restrictions settings. Is there a way of resetting it?
I set restrictions on a child's iPod and can't remember the code to change them.

Thanks. Do you know how many attempts I get before the iPod locks?
No, but you will probably be warned. Also if you happen to have a backup from before you set your Restrictions you can do a restore from that backup. But if the latest backup was done after you set the restrictions, you are out of luck.

Is my iMac dying? Epic fail all day yesterday

Yesterday failed in every way, it froze completely and after restart (all) apps wouldn't even open.. icon just kept bouncing.. nothing worked properly.
After all sorts of weird stuff going on and about 5 restarts [with some complete freezing during some], then starting up holding D and chosing the HD I was able to run Disk Utility and Verify came out ok but apparently many Permissions were bad.
Since I had worked a lot the day before (typing stuff in for ex.), I figured I should take advantage of the system apparently working normally again to make a smart backup with SuperDuper! (didn't want to lose the work done). Bad idea, it took 10 times longer than usual and copied a huge amount of GB - which makes no sense because I hadn't changed nearly that much stuff since last backup-... so no idea what that was about... could I have screwed the backup??? My main concern is losing the 800+GB of important data etc... if the iMac dies that's fine.
iMac is almost 4 years old... new internal HD a few months ago...
I disconnected the internet fearing a 'hacker' attack... (?) Possible?
Today it seems to be working normal again... Anyway... what could be going on?? Sorry for the long story

An epic fail seems more likely to be a story.
Relax....don't fall prey to hype and remember, it's just a machine.

Scheduled refresh - Test connections settings validation failed: one or more connections did not pass the test

modified the data model, added some new reports
added a new source (PQ from azure market place)
uploaded workbook to new powerbi location.
get the following error when i try to turn on scheduled refresh - this is even if i just select one data source that is still identical to the original (working) workbook

Still a problem and not just for me but other users going by the threads on here...

Applies to all worksheets that utilise a PQ connection registered in the gateway. (my gateway is on an azure VM)
Existing worksheets receive this warning. New workbooks that utilise these connections also receive this warning
Adding a new PQ to the gateway and a new workbook that uses the new connection also receives this warning.
Every PQ connection I have receives this warning. My PQ connections are all to web resources. Most are to the workflowmax.com API, and one is to the Azure Marketplace to retrieve data for a date dimension.
Note: this does not prevent me from scheduling or triggering a refresh, and the refresh itself completes successfully. It's just a weird warning that caused confusion as it sounds like the actual refresh will fail as well seeing as the connection test failed.

My daughter has not used her ipod touch for 16 months and has forgotten her passcode. restore factory settings keeps failing due to a software update failure!

my daughter has not used her ipod touch for 16 months and has forgotten her passcode. restore factory settings keeps failing due to a software update failure!
how can i get this ipod reset. She now has an iphone so this is going to be used by someone else in the family and should be simple to do but itunes just keeps booting it out even though it recognises that it was previously connected to our itunes account as all of the children were on my account

That has nothing to do with an update server. Do the following:
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes
