Siri and Dictate cannot recognize the name Tibor - phonetics seem not to help
Hi all,
I cannot, for the life of me, get my phone to recognize the name Tibor when I dictate. It constantly comes out "keyboard." I have put a phonetic spelling in the contact (tried several variants of "tee boar," tea-bore," etc...) but it still hears "keyboard". Even spelling seems not to help as it cannot hear the difference between my "B" and "P". Any thoughts?
Thanks!

You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
Raw Query
as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
4. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method. -

When i p[lug my iphone to my pc it wont sync....and i tried looking for the authorize computer on the itunes store and it is not there
Hello, vizords.
Thank you for the question. You will need to enable the menu bar in iTunes 11 so you can access the store menu which will allow you to authorize the computer. Here are the steps on how to process this.

**** YOU ITUNNES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi,
I did the same XP to Windows 7 upgrade about 18 months ago. I decided to keep iTunes permanently on the external drive than the c drive to save c: drive space.
ITunes database has pointers to MP3 files located in Artist's directories. If you want to use a different location than the default C:\ drive for iTunes, then you need to recreate the Itunes database by deleting all songs in iTunes, then change the default location for iTunes files to your external drive. Then import the MP3 files from the external drive into the empty iTunes database through the iTunes import facility.
If you screw up the timing of the import and find you have multiple iTunes directories (instead of just the default location), then iTunes has a new feature to consolidate all iTunes MP3 files back into the central default location. In iTunes, FILE, LIBRARY, ORGANIZE LIBRARY, then CONSOLIDATE FILES.
To change the default directory for MP3 files, in Tunes go to EDIT, PREFERENCES, ADVANCED and then CHANGE the location to where you want the Itunes MP3 files to be located (including the iTunes subdirectory under which all the artist directories are held. Mine are on the F: drive or whatever your computer states is your drive assignment for the external drive.
Note iTunes 10.5 has many problems that Apple hopefully are working on....we seem to have gone backwards on working components in this iCloud based release. So maybe keep on using old computer until 10.6 is released.
Enjoy

I bought an apple iPod 5th generation the other day and I cannot remember the unlock passcode. I have done the restore thing, but because I never set it up or synced it with iTunes, it does not recognize my device. It is disabled for one hour. There's only a few things that could be my passcode, but because it disables for an hour, it is time consuming trying to figure it out. What do I do? I do not care about having to erase everything since it's new and there's nothing on it, but it was never synced with iTunes.
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
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 should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -

All of the sudden Siri and Dictation on Mountain Lion don't understand anything!!!
Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me?
I used to drive for work every day and send emails and text using different dictations, meaning numeral one and it would produce a 1, and over the past couple months Siri just stinks!
Doesn't understand anything I say...I tried Nuance Dictation to see maybe the way I spoke had changed and I developed a disorder...nope fine.
Google produced better results than the both of them.
Unlike the common theme of people that think Siri and Dictation as being useless...I USE IT AT LEAST 20-30+ X'S A DAY. After the first two weeks of "learning your accent" I rarely had a problem.
Now I am considering Andriod. Unbelievable!
ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS!Mine too.
I doubt this is an upgrade issue towards iOs 6 because it would mean that it works better. I even tried the developer forums and noticed that there were issues going on there too.
The thing that gets me is the whole 'Nuance' thing.
If Siri uses Nuance then why does the Nuance dictation app, that I've used twice, work better than Siri that I've used 1000's of times.
Can you confirm the Nuance dictation app too? Or even the google search app?
Thanks. -

I changed my Apple ID to a new email address. Now I cannot get my Iphone and Ipad to recognize the new Apple ID ... and I cannot access the old Apple ID because it does not recognize its password any more ... and I cannot change the password ... and there seems to be no one to ask about this. Any help?
I tried but it won't let me even access the old Apple ID. It won't recoginze its old password and will not let me make a new one. (The site tells me it has sent an email to let me change the password but the email does not come.)

My iPhone and iPad cannot recognize my Apple ID. I have changed the password three times.
Thanks for the suggestion, Chris. I actually did not resolve the issue which is why i did not post an answer.
it turns out that my iphone seems to default to an incorrect User ID (it defaults to an @me account, which is not something that i have ever used).
even when i change the User ID in my settings for the iTunes store, it still appears when i attempt to get updates for my existing apps. however, it does seem to use the correct ID when i attempt to purchase new apps.
If someone actually had an answer to correct this, i would love to update my existing apps.
Thank you. -
How can I set my privacy tighter with Siri and Dictation?
OK First of all, Apple needs to stop with the restriction of what you can say in posts. They keep deleting my stuff without allowing my QUESTION to be answered.
First of all, when did this massive invasion of my privacy happen? Did it happen with the latest update to iOS 8.1? I know I did not have these pop ups until this update happened this week.
I would like to know how to use Siri and Dictation WITHOUT such a massive invasion of my privacy?
Did I ever have such privacy prior to iOS 8.1?
I went to dictate a text message to my husband today and I get a pop up telling me that ALL my information is going to be shared. There is a "learn more" link and I click that and it has this long diatribe on how
Apple takes the things I say and dictate and records them and sent to them to process my requests. My device will also send Apple other information, such as my name and nickname; the names, nicknames, and relationship with me (e.g. "my dad") of my address book contacts, song names in my collection, and HomeKit-enabled devices in my home (e.g., "living room lights") (collectively, your "User Data"). All of this data is used to help Siri and Dictation understand me better and recognize what I say. It is not linked to other data that Apple may have from my use of other Apple services...
there is a lot more but suffice it to say, it does NOT 'match' what is said about Siri and Dictation on the Apple privacy page. The phone privacy contract description has MORE things listed that are being recorded, used and stored.It only matches what I quoted. There is a lot more in the phone.
I also had a lot more in my original post but Apple censored and then deleted it because they decided it was a rant.
Apple's policy in my phone's privacy policy says a lot more.
Apparently from your answer I am stuck with a massive invasion of my privacy? Are you so very comfortable with having everything you say recorded? What if you worked in a high security industry?
I also asked if this was in effect prior to this latest update or not.
What I had to omit. Check your phone's privacy page and compare to apple's web page I linked ( Settings > General > Keyboard >Dictation & Settings > General > Siri) and click on the About Siri or Dictation privacy...
It goes on to tell me I can restrict Siri's and Dictation's ability completely by turning it off.
It tells me that my personal information, voice recording and other things collected may be retained for a period of time to generally improve Siri, Dictation an functionality in other Apple products and services. <-- this right here contradicts the paragraph I quoted by saying it indeed DOES use it for other Apple things. Also, HOW LONG is this "period of time"?
If I want to 'erase' this information I can simply turn off then on Siri and or Dictation and lose what I have had recorded on me. THIS fully restarts the "learning" process all over again and in turn NEGATES all the stuff it learned in the past. The KICKER is that since apple "retains what it collects for a period of time" HOW does turning the services off truly "erase" what was taken in the past?
Why can't the learning process be done directly on the phone itself without it being RECORDED and STORED by Apple?
Now, before you go off and say how Apple respects my privacy, I know all of that. I just don't believe or trust it since all this iCloud hacking has been happening lately AND I am VERY conscious of what I put "out there" for all to see and take. I don't use social networking either due to the massive invasion of my privacy. Plus I find it silly. I will not be reduced to a low level of conversation where the simple "like" is the equivalent of a reply. -
Photoshop cannot recognize the file extension
I'm trying to batch convert BMP files to JPG. One file works fine, as I build the Action. But when I run the batch, I get the error:
File: "/Users/bryan/7D FTP/Streak in 7D/Pyracantha 2/Strips - 2 wide/"
Error: Could not complete your request because Photoshop cannot recognize the file extension. (-25600)
I see that the file in question is a directory, not a file, but everything was set up correctly to override "open" commands etc.
Any ideas?The file names are an image sequence, Strip0002.bmp, Strip0002.bmp, etc.
But the file name never appears in the error message, only the path.
I tried moving the folders to the desktop in case the filename and path was too long, but it had no effect. The Batch Action always does the first file without error and fails on the second, as if it has remembered the output type JPG and is then confused by the input type BMP. -
My Satellite cannot recognize the new HDD
I bought a new hard drive for my laptop. After installing it I got message no fixed drive found. I updated the bios from Toshiba site and the same message is still there.
I have also tried the drive in another laptop. It was recognized properly so I formatted it an installed Windows XP Pro on it. It worked ok so I tried it again in my laptop but message saying put system disk in press any key. So I put XP disk in it starts the install and then starts to transfer files and gives message no hard drive found so it still does not find the hard drive.
Please can anyone help?
KenHi Ken
It would be very nice to know the exactly notebook name.
I suppose the BIOS cannot recognize the HDD because of the HDD size.
It would be very interesting to know if the HDD is supported and compatible with this notebook
