Save your time and money

People save your time and money and run for the hills!!! Verizon wireless is a joke and worse than any other wireless company I have ever dealt with!! They slow your data down after the 1st GB and then charge you outrageously if you run over, and god forbid your crappy phone breaks and you need to upgrade or try to add a line. Please do yourself and your family a favor and go to Sprint or AT&T, at least they tell you upfront your first bill will be $500 for 2 days of service on the cycle. I will never use Verizon again and I hope they crack down on these losers like they did AT&T!!!!

Good rant, but it helps others more if you tell the specifics. Certainly your experience is not universal, but then again it is hard to know exactly what your experience was. $500 is a lot of overage if that is what you are indicating. It also helps to know what happened to you that was not in the contract that you could have predicated ahead of time.

  • An error occurred. please save your work and restart edge animate! First time I try to open Edge Animate.

    I just tried starting on an Edge Animate project for the first time. When I open the application the splash screen does NOT show up. So I pressed cmd-N to create a new file, this created a black file without any measurements, and when I try to set the height and width the error (An error occurred. please save your work and restart edge animate) pops up. I tried reinstalling and it didn't help. What should I do?

  • How can i control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?

    Sup buddies,
    How can I control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?
    As the project grows in size the load time increases. How does one control not loading all images ,divs,elements etc. until they're
    needed on the timeline? For example some sections are off and only become visible when recalled. My projects slowly grow in size so loading
    all images , is counter productive . My other option would be to create separate htmls but that breaks the seamless user experience .

    quote: "Is there an easy way to burn a completed project to DVD, but keep only the (lo res, lo size) previews on my hard drive?"
    yes.
    maybe,...
    1. you might think of making DVD backups first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
    or,
    2. bring in the photographs to hard drive first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
    the low rez Previews will stay in Aperture but the high quality Versions will be exported onto DVDs and gone from the hard drive (if you delete the originals).
    another way would be to export small about 50-70 pixel wide high quality jpegs to a folder on your Desktop and import & keep these in Aperture Library as a reference. make metadata to show where the original Project DVDs are stored and DVD filing system used.

  • Can you save your itunes and songs onto an external hard drive so that incase your computer crashes you will still have all your music?

    Can you save your itunes and songs onto an external hard drive so that incase your computer crashes you will still have all your music?

    The procedures below are for "moving" your library but as long as you don't delete it from your internal drive you are basically backing up.
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Simple answer:  Copy your whole iTunes folder to the external drive.  For subsequent backups you might want to learn about cloning and using a tool that only does incremental backups of recently changed items rather than copying all your files each time.

  • The last 'An' update has bug; An error occurred. Please save your work and restart Edge Animate

    After the last Edge Animate I started to get this error:  An error occurred. Please save your work and restart Edge Animate.  Anyone else having this issue with version 1.5.0.217.23270
    I'm using Windows 7 Profession 64 bit.
    24 gb ram
    At the time of the error on timeline, around 21 second frame, only 4.82 gb of ram was being used and CPU was using less that 10% processing. No spikes. 

    Elaine,
    On the webserver its running fine for being partially completed.  http://dirtyhumanoids.com/publish/web/TonalpohualliAndTheEyeOfProvidence.html
    It's crashing within Animate on all 3 copies.
    Copy 1 was created and saved before last upgrade (no . 
    Copy 2 of this file was created before the update and saved a few times before and after the upgrade. 
    Copy 3, is just trying to figure out what went wrong with copy 2.  BTW, Copy 1 is also having the same issue. 
    The only thing I can think of that I might have messed up on was creating a picture into a symbol much late in the project.
    I wish I knew how to video record my desktop so you could analysis my Edge Animate.

  • Serious battery issues, apple support waste of time and money!

    My Mac Book Pro 17" has a serious battery issue it holds a charge for a hour or less, and does not always charge. Telephone apple support and all they say is take it to one of there shops to get it tested that will cost me about £40 in train fare and take a day at least. Ive had the Mac since September 2011 i never started using it until late December 2011. A 3 year warranty for what!!!!! And it overheats.....  Apple good bye your becoming worse the Microsoft your just making money out of constant yearly updates/releases of your products, Updates which becoming boring!

    The thing is you pay for a warranty and unless you live close to a Authrorised test centre etc, then it cost you more in time and money for travel!
    I'm really not clear on what you're asking Apple to do.  You don't have to go to an Apple store, you can go to any Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP).  Your warranty is still completely valid.  You can find them here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434
    The title of your thread says Apple support is a waste of time and money.  What would have preferred that they do?  If you are too far from an Apple store or AASP, you can let them know that and they will usually send you out a box so you can ship your machine back to them so they can check it out.  Of course you'll be completely without your machine during that time. 
    You're comment contains quite a bit of bashing for something which Apple will clearly resolve.  Unfortunately, if you live in a remote area where there are no Apple stores or AASPs and you dont' want to send it in, there isn't anything anyone can do to help you.

    Get IT to do it. Get them to uninstall all the latest updates, since you can identify them as a proximal cause of the problem. Also, search MS Knowledge Base or do some googling for the exact error text.

  • CHARGED TIME AND MONEY FOR BEING MISINFORMED-COMPLAINT

    Today I received my Verizon Wireless bill and I noticed that I was being charge overage for data usage of $45.00 (3 X $15.00 per 250mb over). Now I've been with Verizon for over 10yrs and always loved the service and plans that they've provided until recently.I switched to the lowest plan of $45 per line w/250mb of data due to my financial situation currently. I called and spoke to a rep to see about  the overage charges, but was told before I could be transferred to dept that handles that issue would need to setup arrangements to pay due amount. I let the rep know that I do have arrangements setup and should be noted. She quickly stated that my arrangements  was for last months bill and I would need to setup arrangements for the current. I gave her amount and date that I would be able to pay, which she informed me that the arrangements would not be able to guarantee a continuation of my service. I asked her why was I able to setup arrangement with the previous rep for a lesser amount plus more time and my service would continue as long as I kept my agreement, but she's not able to do the same. She sold cause my account would continue to be behind cause another payment would be coming due as I'm paying off the previous month. I asked to speak to retention dept, which I was told that she couldn't transfer me, but would get me a supervisor to see what they could do for me. I spoke to the supervisor, which I again was told the exact same thing as the previous rep had already discussed and felt like I wasn't getting anywhere now. I requested to speak to retention at this point and was transferred. The young man I spoke to stated off very pleasant and when I told him my situation, seemed like he was more then willing to help. I asked for to be able to pay an amount and gave a date again, which he stated that he couldn't meet the arrangements cause would put account too far past due and lines would be interrupted at point. I thanks him for the explanation and wanted to see about setting up better arrangements. I gave another amount which was shot down again. Then he offered to suspend my account until I could caught up the bill to help me out. Really???? I let him know that he needed to be more realistic and see how you really can live w/o a cell phone in this day and era. At this point, I felt like he wasn't giving me anything to work with and was only concerned about me paying the bill. I quickly let him know that although I do love Verizon service, they're not the cheapest out there and had several other options to choose from with other providers. After we both went back and forth trying to see how wore the bigger pants, we both came to a agreement to settle my bill within 2 payments broke up. Now I've been on the phone for about 45mins and still yet to even speak to someone about the original issue I was calling about. Finally, I was being transferred to CS dept. While holding, I was able to get into the Family Base setting and set limits on the 2 phone under me to block usage once 250mb limit was reached. I got a rep by the name of Christian and explained to him about the overage charges that I was charged on my bill and that I signed up for the Family Base feature to block overage usage, cause when I switched to this new plan I was told that I couldn't block limit on data for my plan cause was too low and would have to move up to a plane with lines at least 500mb. I told him that's the reason why I signed up for the Family Base cause it stated that would block data usage once limit reach and thought would do automatically since they bill me automatically when I go over. He said that is correct, that I'm not able to set a block on data overage under 500mb. I let him know that's not the cause and that I was able to setup usage block on phone online, but again I didn't know I had too or that I could, cause I was misinformed by the previous rep, just as he was misinforming me again and asked that I be credited $45.00 for being misinformed. He said that he would see what he could do and offered to take 25% off the overage changes. I said, no I believe that I need to be credited the full amount due to being misinformed by previous rep and now him. I explained to him that I believe this new planned was rolled out before they could make some adjustments to some of the features and that's why the limit wasn't available to be set at the time I switched my plan or on the Family Base feature until a later date. So Christian then said  that he could give a $20.00 credit to fees. Again, I explained to him that I shouldn't have to pay for being misinformed and requested to speak to a supervisor. He tried to tell me that a supervisor wouldn't be able to give me anymore credit and that would take a long time to speak to one. I still insisted on speaking to one. At this point, I've now been on the phone 1hr 30mins and was placed on hold. Christian came to the line a couple of times letting me know that he was still waiting on a supervisor, which I let him know that was fine. He then came back to the line and told me that he had reviewed the account w/supervisor and that they credited $20.00 and that was the best that could be done cause data was used. I asked him, if the supervisor was reviewing the account with him, why wasn't I able to speak to them as I requested? So, I'm placed on hold again and after about 10mins was finally placed on line with Kim ID#159079, so I explained my situation and feelings towards being misinformed and how I believe that I shouldn't have to be help accountable if I'm being misinformed by reps about features. From there she went right in and told me that the credit that I was giving was more than enough and that Christian went over what he was supposed to do already and that no other credit would be offered to my account. Now that I see that I've wasted my time, I asked for her ID and Christians ID info. She gave me her's, but decline to give me his and said that if I didn't get it at the time I was talking to him, that she wasn't authorized to give his cause was sensitive information...??? You're a supervisor and I know working in a call center myself, that's the reason why your given ID# so you don't to give out you true info. Needless to say I spent 1hr 51mins on the line for a $20.00 credit for being misinformed, which is less the amount I get paid on my real job. Very disappointing. Can someone please help better my situation and Verizon experience???

    Simply because you disagree with the amount of credit they have given you does not mean that they will give you more, or that you deserve more. If going over your data allowance is that important to you, you should have kept better track of your usage. You can place a counter on your home screen which tells you how much you have used. It isn't up to the minute accurate, but you would certainly have been aware that you had used 4 times your monthly allowance.
    Whether or not you were misinformed about usage limits being available, you used 4 times your monthly allowance. Take some responsibility, keep track of your usage. It is not hard to do.
    Additionally, Verizon expects you to keep up to date on your bill. Yes, they will give you a break when you get an overage and request a payment schedule, but when you call the very next month in order to do the same they are going to be a bit more strict on their terms because they do not want this to become a pattern. If you would have taken a fraction of that overage, you could have stepped up to the next level of service and been able to cover all of your usage. This is what Verizon expects of you if you have an overage. You should reevaluate your usage habits and change your allowance OR rein in your usage to meet your current allowance. If you fail to rein in your usage to meet your current allowance, I would not expect Verizon to be as lenient with payments for a what appears to be a chronic overage patttern when simply increasing your allowance would have lowered your bill in the first place.

  • Ray tracer failed to launch error is costing me time and money

    Add me to the legion of people angry about this bug. Doing a search for it here and everywhere else basically leads me to the conclusion that Adobe knows about this problem and does nothing about it to fix it. I'm working on a project for a client with a deadline that's coming in a few days, and I have to constantly close AE and open it again, sometimes even reboot, to get it to work for a few minutes, and then it crashes again. So something that I could have been close to finish by now, I'm still not half way through because of this horrible bug that Adobe doesn't fix. Of course some people can't complain because they're running it on an unsupported card, but I'm running it on a GTX570 with 1.2 GB of RAM, so there's no reason why it shouldn't work. The machine also has an i7 3930k CPU with 32 GB of very fast RAM, and it's a fresh installation of Windows 8.1 Pro from less than a week ago, with all the latest drivers.
    The project is very simple, a solid layer acting as a floor with a grid generator, a layer of text, and about 8 pictures sitting a few pixels above the floor. Nothing overly complicated, and it still crashes all the time. And this is not even a 1080p project, it's 720p.
    And to add insult to injury, After Effects does not respect a custom layout when there was a comp viewer in the secondary monitor, so each time I restart AE I have to open a new comp viewer, drag it to the second monitor and resize it. Did nobody at Adobe think that people would be using two comp windows open at the same time, one in each monitor?
    Adobe should focus less on adding new flashy features and instead making their software reliable, and not force people to buy CC. They should fix CS6.

    I am having the same issue, though today I tried something that helped a lot.  I am working on a mac pro with a flashed Quadro FX 580 and a slower Quadro 4000 card, and two displays.  I've always plugged one display into each of the cards and lately frequently gotten the "Ray Tracer failed to launch" error. Today I plugged both displays into the less-powerful graphics card, leaving the 580 untaxed by running a monitor and so presumably entirely free for Ray Tracing.  And so far today I haven't gotten the error we both know too well.  You mention being on a PC and don't mention having two cards, so this may not help you.  But if you still have the card you swapped out for your 570 and can pop it in your rig it might be worth a try.

  • HT1725 Dowon loads from store never work.... wasted time and money

    Dowon loads from store never work.... wasted time and money

    Thanks for reading and thanks for the advice. Perhaps I'll ask them about it next time this problem occurs, although carrying the thing through a mall that is only about a mile away is the least of my worries. I'll do if it is both free (I don't make enough at my job to pay for such a service) and relatively speedy, although I'd hate for them to come over and for the computer to work properly (as bad as that sounds). It'd be a wasted trip and nothing would get fixed.
    I'm contemplating videotaping myself performing my "fixes" on it the next time I have this problem.
