Sketchy behavior...please help

this is my 2rd... Yes, second, replacement Ipod in the last YEAR and it too is suffering from the same crap that killed the last one and the original. It started off skipping songs (not shuffle, im not stupid I know the difference). then it evolved into what it is doing now, booting up and showing the apple logo, then if i tilt it or move it or even touch the click wheel, it completely resets again. even if by some MIRACLE i get it to a menu of some kind, it just resets when i try to select anything at all. i've searched this site for awhile now searching for the solution but the usual 5 R's stuff IS NOT WORKING AT ALL. i tried resetting, recharging, retrying (with a different usb port), reinstalling software, and restarting my computer but to no avail. sometimes i get the grey stagnant battery meter outlined in this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302420
even if its plugged into the wall.
please help me, im not sure if best buy will still honor my 2 year warranty because i've i've gotten 2 replacements already and it'd look mighty bad if i did it again, although its not like i abuse them. i have a gateway computer that operates on windows XP. i'd really appreciate any helpful answers

You still have a valid 3rd-party warranty and, if I was you, I'd make use of it.

  • Very strange iTunes behavior, please help!

    Every once in a while, I will notice a song in my library that has a time listed that I know is shorter than the song's actual length (for example, a song I know to be 5 minutes+ will be listed in the library as 1:37). When I play the song, the time adjusts to the proper time, so that is not the problem. However, if I sync my iPod, iTunes will only sync the time listed (1:37 in the example) to the iPod! It seems to be 100% random in the songs it effects and time it changes it to. Please help me out!
    Edit: I also forgot to mention, it will make songs longer also, but that is not as much of a problem because it will go on the iPod, show the "longer" time and then just go to the next track once the actual music is over

  • Java3D behavior - please help

    Does anybody know how I can make a java3d behavior that can modify 2 branchgroups from different scenegraphs, for example the ViewPlatform branchgroup, and the branchgroup of an object in the scenegraph????????
    thanks

    or maybe a more appropriate question would be:
    How can I read a branchgroup node from a behavior that is not attached to the same scenegraph as the branchgroup node I want to read????

  • Strange object stream behavior - please help

    I have implemented client/server code for a Web application that retrieves check images from a mainframe. The client (on my app server) sends request objects via an ObjectOutputStream to the server component (the image server), where the request is processed to produce a response object, which is then sent back across another ObjectOutputStream to the client. Usually the application works great, but every so often I get the following strange behaviour -
    A request object gets to the server and is processed, but then the response object sits on the server and will not return to the client. However, as soon as another request object is sent to the server, the 1st response object immediately returns to the client. Then, the response object for the 2nd request hangs on the server, and so on and so on. The only way I have found to fix this is to reboot the entire machine (Windows NT). Simply restarting my server component will not help.
    Usually this will only happen after I have stopped and restarted my server component and then not every time. However, today it seems to have started happening without any restart of the server component which has me very confused.
    Any thoughts on what might be causing this strange behaviour would be greatly appreciated. I can post some of my code if absolutely necessary, but since it involves multiple different classes this would probably only serve to confuse.

    Wild guess: Does your server do a flush() after
    writing the response object?Yes - every time. Besides, as I wrote above, this behaviour doesn't occur all the time, just every so often.

  • Random behavior -- please help!

    I posted yesterday and only received one response, so I'm posting again in the hopes that someone will be able to help. This time I'm including some of the code that's giving me problems.
    This is what I wrote yesterday:
    I'm writing a Java program that schedules employees into a monthly work schedule. I'm trying to write it such that the list of employees (which is read in from file) is in a different, random order for each day of the month. This way when the program accesses the list to start scheduling people into shifts, the list of employees will be in a different order each day.
    I thought I had it, but when I execute the program, the employees show up in the exact same order for every day EXCEPT the very first day of the month. Why would the random generator use a unique list for the first day and then the same list for all subsequent days?
    In my scheduling method, I iterate through each of the days in the month, and at the beginning of each new day, I call the method that supposedly rearranges the order of the list of employees. Here's that method:
        public ArrayList makeNewEmpList()
            ArrayList temp = new ArrayList();
            while (temp.size() < emps.size())
                int i = rand.nextInt(emps.size());
                Employee doe = (Employee) emps.get(i);
                if (!temp.contains(doe))
                    temp.add(doe);
            return temp;
        }"emps" is my list of employees, and "rand" is my random generator. When I execute the scheduling method, the very first day of the month has a unique order, but every day for the rest of the month has the exact same list of employees in the exact same order.
    Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks again,
    Erica

    So do I need to specify that the random generator
    should only choose numbers within the range of
    emps.size() -- as I did in the original code above --
    or will it automatically choose within that range
    because I'm also giving it the list to shuffle?Check out the documentation, you'll see that it just requires a Random object. You don't have any control over how one of those works anyway. Or you can just call Collections.shuffle(emps) and it will create its own Random, which is most likely just as good.
    Also, you're saying that I can just put this one line
    of code in place of the line in which I call the
    above method in my main scheduling method? I'm not
    sure how to use the Collections class.I think so. Your description of your requirements seemed to be a description of shuffling the list of employees randomly. Again, read the documentation to ensure that it is going to do what you really want done.
    What you're
    suggesting will alter the order of the "emps" list
    itself, right? Because I was trying to create a new
    ArrayList for each time through, but I guess it
    doesn't matter if I just keep altering the orignal
    list. Yes, it will. You're right, you might have to reorganize some other code to account for that.
    Thanks so much for helping! I really appreciate it.

  • Weird zoom behavior, please help

    for no apparent reason my desk top zoom in like 500% the courser now moves the background screen computer work if I can get the courses to the desired place. Rebooting leads to normal appearance of the desktop for about 5 seconds and then the desk top zooms in again, tried all I know to get rid of the zoom and reset with no success, any ideas? thanks

    Go to System Preferences +Universal Access+ pane Seeing tab. Turn OFF the Zoom feature.
    If the current zoom makes doing so difficult, you can also toggle it ON and OFF by hitting Command-Option-8.

  • Apple 23" Cinema Display - very odd behavior, please help.

    After being away for the weekend I powered up my G5 and was horrified to find that the monitor was not powering up. After searching through the Apple support website on another computer, I unplugged everything that was plugged into the back of the monitor, and I also unplugged the USB and firewire cables going from the monitor to the G5. And guess what? The monitor came on! When I tried powering down, plugging everything back in again, and powering up, the monitor once again would not power up.
    What gives? I didn't make any changes to any of the settings before I left for the weekend. And what's even weirder is that the LED light goes off when the monitor comes on and then comes back on when I shut everything down.
    Do I have some bad cables or something?

    Hi-
    I can suggest trying your troubleshooting one more time, only this time, attach your external connections one at a time, testing with each new connection. If one of the peripheral connections is the culprit, you should find it in this manner.
    Consider the possibility that a connection was jiggled loose in the reattachment process........Check that the power brick connection is secure.
    USB and Firewire are hot swappable, so, powering down should not be necessary to make the connections.
    The LED shutting off during display operation is normal. The LED acts as a stand by indicator, and also flashes error codes when trouble is detected within.

  • Peculiar annotator behavior, please help.

    I am writting a tool similar to AI selection tool.
    User clicks and drags a path, I use the annotator to draw the shape of the path new path to be, user releases the mouse, I stop the annotator and update the path to its new shape.
    So, I open AI, start dragging an anchor of a path, I see the annotator draws then clear then draw etc.so you can see it flickers on and off very fast.
    So, I switch to a different application, then switch back to AI and start again, thereafer it works, no more flickering.
    Why switching back to AI makes it work? I hope I don't have to ask user to switch back to AI for it to work, that would be silly!
    Has anybody experience the same thing? Is there a solution?
    Thank you

    I just want to get my final comment in and give this thread a rest.
    No doubt in my mind the issue is with thread synchronization between the clearing and the drawing threads.
    I hope someone from Adobe would be kind enough to admit this problem, so we don't implement tricks and patches
    that would only mask the problem in some operating environments and not others. Synchronization issue need to be
    fixed inside AI core, not try to mask it in the plugin, because it does not guarantee to mask the problem for all users.
    Another thing is to give the plugin the ability to request a draw and a clear, and do not generate a draw automatically based on some
    fixed conditions. The plugin knows when it wants to draw and when to clear. The drawing and clearing engines only need to synchonize
    themselves and execute the plugin requests in the order recieved.

  • Bizzarre EXS Behavior-Please Help

    All of a sudden my EXS instruments will automatically turn the main output volume to "0" after this one spot in the piece. I have turned off automation, Can't figure it out.
    THX

    Are you saying that the Output 1-2 fader is going to zero? Or the EXS volume control is going to zero?
    If the former, is the Out 1-2 channel represented in the arrange window?
    If the latter, are you sure there is no region automation happening?
    Are you sure the EXS is causing it? Can you just change the instrument to, say, an EP88 and the problem goes away?
    Can you mute regions systematically to determine if just one region contains a clue?

  • I have trouble setting the trash mailbox behavior. I have set it to delete every month but it has been keeping the trash mails for only about 10 days. Please help.

    I have trouble setting the trash mailbox behavior. I have had it set to delete the messages once a month. But lately it has been deleting my messages every 10 days. I have tried choosing different options to set the trash mailbox behavior but has not been successful. Is there anything I can do? Please help.

    Thanks for that advice @randers4.
    I linked through and submitted my info as a "topic not covered" in the iCloud section. After entering the serial number of my MBP it turns out I wasn't eligible for technical support (though I don't think this is hardware related support) and the final suggestion was to take my computer into an Apple store. I called my local Apple reseller and asked for assistance. The customer service rep was very nice but unable to help, so suggested I call Apple Support on 1300 321 456. I did so and, again, spoke to two very polite and helpful customer service people (I was transferred to security services). I didn't have to be on hold to speak to either rep for more than a few seconds! After trying a few different things, he worked out what was happening...
    So, to cut a long story short, to solve the problem in my OP, all I had to do was log out of iCloud in my System Preferences and log back in using my current Apple ID. [Edited to add that I had to sign out of everything I was currently signed in to with my Apple ID before logging out and in again.]
    Problem solved!

  • Cannot log into AD on Mountain Lion. Please help! I got the logs

    My company has been experiencing this problem ever since Mountain Lion released.
    The problem is, we cannot log into AD on all of our MAC who currently runs Mountain Lion. We, however, can log into AD fine with Lion and Snow Leopard just fine. We only use AD, we don't use Open Directory or have any Apple server.
    I have gather some logs using the SSH. Please help me view the logs and let me know what's going on if possible.
    Here are the steps that I performed before capture these logs.
    I format the hard drive and installed a new OS X 10.8.2 on the hard drive using the Recovery Mode (Hold down option Key while boot).
    I created a new computer name call ittest-mac3 in AD and assigned to proper OU. I changed the computer name under System Preferences ==> Sharing to "ittest-mac3".
       3.  I bind this Macbook Pro to our Active Directory via xyz.com. The bind was successful. I enabled "Create mobile account at login", "Required confirmation before creating a mobile account", " Force local home directory on start up disk", " Use UNC path from active directory to derive network home location", "Default user shell: /bin/bash/. Network protocol to be used: smb:
    After I reboot the Mac client, I was unable to log into it using our regular AD user account (consider all of our employees has regular account).
    I created 2 test accounts for Mac on Active Directory, they are "mac test" and "mac test 2".
    With "mac test" account, I configured everything the same as our regular account in AD. Which I was not able to log into the Mac client using this account.
    With “mac test 2” account, I configured everything the same as our regular account in AD EXCEPT for UNIX Attributes. I was successfully logged into the Mac client using this user account.
    So the problem is ... set the Unix Attributes for NIS domain on the AD account prevent everyone of us in our company to log into AD on any client that have Mountain Lion OSX installed.
    Here are the logs:
    Log1. This logs showed successful when log into AD on a Mountain Lion OSX using an AD account that don't have UNIX attributes setting configure.

    -Reece,
    We only have 1 single domain, 1 domain forest, no subdomains, only alias. I had replied to the other post as well. But I am happy to paste it here in case anyone want to read it.
    So, after a few months of testing, capture and sending logs back and forth to Apple Engineers, we found out there is a setting in AD, under User Account that prevent us to log into AD from Mountain Lion. If you would go to your AD server, open up a user account properties, then go to Account tab, the "Do not require Kerberos preauthentication" option is checked. As soon as I uncheck that option, immediately I was able to log into AD on the Mac client. Apple engineers copied all my AD settings and setup a test environment on their end and match exact mine AD environment. They was able to reproduce this issue.
    The bad part about this is... our environment required the "Do not require Kerberos preauthentication" is checked in AD, in order for our users to login into some of our Unix and Linux services. Which mean that it is impossible for us to remove that check mark because most, if not all of them some way or another require to login into applications that run on Unix and Linux. Apple is working to see if they can come up with a fix. Apparently, no one has report this issue except us. I believe most of you out there don't have that check mark checked in your environment... Anyone out there have any suggestion to by pass or have a work around for this?

  • PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon in my dock was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted all my emails in my Outlook inbox.

    PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon that is in my dock, that I know nothing about, was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted ALL my OUTLOOK emails in my inbox.  Can someone please please tell me if there is a way to get my Outlook inbox emails back OR EVEN the emails that were in my Mail app - because even tho I never use the Mail app, at least the emails would be there.
    When I was trying to delete the emails in my inbox for the Mail app - I followed THESE directions.  It did in fact clear my inbox for the Mail app.  But then I went to log on to my Outlook account and EVERY SINGLE EMAIL was gone.  And not in the Deleted box.  Just gone.  Here are the directions I followed that screwed everything up.  Please help.
    Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors.
    Uncheck "Store deleted messages on the server".
    At the drop list for "Permanently erase deleted messages when", choose "Quitting Mail".
    Next...
    Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > General.
    At "When searching all mailboxes, include results from", uncheck "Trash".
    Select All = command A

    i found out my prob!
    here is what you do.
    go to the "system preferences" on your dock.
    click "software updates".
    click "installed software"
    if it shows something about a recent update about "EFI UPDATE, FIRMWARE, THUNDERBOLT" or anything like that, exit out of it.
    go to mail.
    click "mail" at the top.
    click "preferences...".
    find the account you are having trouble with, once you do, make sure its highlighted, then click the "-" at the bottom of the window (this will only effect that mail account, it will not effect your ical weather or not its synced thought that email account)
    hit the "+" (right next to the "-") and add your accout back!
    its something with that update that effected mail, i hope this works out for you, if not reply back

  • IMac Freezing/crashing, please help. Tried everything! :(

    Hello Fellow MacTalkers,
    I am writing this post to ask you for a help with an issue that is very frustrating to resolve.
    To begin with, I have purchased my MacBook Pro 2.4 GHZ, 3GB, Leopard running notebook about 7 months ago.
    Until recently I have discovered that my computer is crashing randomly.
    I am not a very tech oriented person, who knows much about console, logs and sorting out the hardware / software related issues.
    About 2 months ago I started to experience some random freezes on my computer. Those freezes were occurring on different type of situations so it was hard for me to identify what could be causing the problem. The most common freezing that I have encountered, was and is that my computer screen just freezes and I can't perform any reset or rescue. Simply hard reset.
    I started to think that this could be a cause of getting an extra 1GB memory that I purchased from Apple store, and that the memory could be faulty. But just to make sure I have done a clean re-instal of my os. making sure that I have all my permissions everything that could be a "common" cause of any weird behaviors on a mac sorted.
    After the reinstall it got even worse.
    I decided to take my computer to Apple authorized centre in Sydney broadway NextByte shop.
    I explained the problem, asked if that would be possible to check some sort of console logs and track back what could be the cause of the problem that I am experiencing.
    I left my computer for 2 weeks in service. And after that 2 weeks they have replied to me saying that they have detected no faulty with the hardware what so ever. I keep on persisting that I understand that the service people have done all the tests on external peripherals, checked the system performance through some kind of testing tools and it resulted with no problem. I rang the Apple complaints department asking if they could do anything about it as I am very worried that this issue won't disappear. They have informed me that there is nothing thay can do and they are basically sending my back home.
    I collected my computer 2 days ago and started setting up some programs like adobe and all my apps. At first it was running all well, but then it started (leopard or hardware) to freeze again. On no particular occasion. I had to crashes in 3 hours.
    I remembered the time of the crash and after the reboot, I checked my console and here is what I could find:
    12/05/08 11:00:07 PM com.apple.launchd[1] (0x10b260.mdworker[1036]) Exited abnormally: Segmentation fault
    I don't know if that is related to this post in any way, but as I said at the beginning I have no technical knowledge on where to investigate it further.
    I would like to ask you for your recommendation on what should I do next.
    I hope there is nothing that I am doing wrong with my computer as I am keeping it organized nad well maintained.
    I thought also that that could be overheating related issue so I bought a notebook cooler, but that doesn't seemed to resolve the problem.
    I am running out of ideas. Apple won't help me in solving the problem, I am also not sure how should I approach this case from the legal perspective. Can I go to fair traiding institution and ask them for help to enforce apple on returning my money for laptop, should I perform any tasks on my computer to fix the problem with some software.
    Help, I am really running out of ideas. I am doing graphic design daily and this problem is driving me crazy.
    I would appreciate your feedback or any suggestions on what should I do next.
    Sorry for my cracked english. Im still learning my lingo in Australia
    PLEASE PLEASE, help me on this one.
    Kind Regards,
    Michael Saganowski

    For what its worth, it sounds like the Leopard woes I was having before I left and went back to Tiger. I was in leopard for three months and I had too many problems to list here, but some common ones were Random system freezes/crashes (especially in itunes coverflow), Finder freezing, Adobe CS3 crashing and being generally buggy, not being able to run Final Cut Pro and After Effects at the same time.
    My advice to you, check your memory if you feel like it could be the problem. If your memory is OK, then wait for the 10.5.3 update which is supposed to be out really soon (like within a couple of weeks or so from what I hear.)

  • Firefox has been causing drops in my internet connection lately. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE HELP!

    OK, I recently wrote to the author of Session Manager about this problem, since I thought I'd narrowed it down to that, but, well, maybe not. I'll copy & paste that conversation here, rather than waste a lot of time writing up something from scratch, especially since I've already wasted an INCREDIBLE amount of time on this problem, and I'm about ready to go berserk...
    Hello. I've been using Session Manager for a long time, but lately, it's been causing a problem that's been driving me out of my skull, and I think I've finally pinned it down to SM. lately, when I've tried to load sessions, even with a small number of tabs, it's caused my internet connection to drop, or, at least, to slow down to the point where pages try to load, but finally come back with a message that the connection timed out, or the page had took too long to respond. I have my Windows Vista Home Premium computer running Firefox 11 connected via Ethernet to a wifi router that is connected to a cable modem. I tried disabling pre-fetching, resetting my router to factory settings, I tried a different router, I tried removing the router and connecting directly to the cable modem, i tried a different modem, I tried disabling the Symantec extension, I tried clearing windows' DNS cache, I tried disabling Firefox's DNS cache, I tried disabling Symantec's Firefox extension (I have Norton anti-virus), and I tried disabling my anti-virus & firewall programs (hmmm, did I leave anything out?), but none of that solved the problem. I haven't noticed this behavior with any other program, and Firefox goes along swimmingly otherwise. The reason why I think I've finally pinpointed it as SM is that trying to load a certain 9-tab session caused this problem multiple times, but I eventually got it all loaded correctly, and then I tried restarting it, and Firefox's own built-in feature of loading the tabs and windows if it closed properly the last time worked just fine, and it loaded quite quickly.
    So, why might this be happening, and what can I do about it? Do you think it might be a matter of the SM data being corrupted/ If so, how do I get rid of it? I found the Session Manager Export Tool extension and exported my sessions and then tried uninstalling and re-installing SM, but it hadn't gotten rid of the old SM data. Please help, as I consider SM to be a vital part of my Firefox and have come to rely on it, plus I'd like to be able to use my old saved sessions again. Please help ASAP, too, as I've already wasted an unbelievable amount of time on this and I am extremely frustrated and aggravated. Thank you.
    The response I received:
    "Session Managwr cannot cause your Internet connection to drop, it simply doesn't have the ability to do that. All it can do is cause Firefox to restore tabs that have been saved. It can cause lots of web pages to load, which could slow down Firefox or possibly your Internet connection (if you have a really slow connection), but it can't drop your Internet connection. The only exception to that that I can think of is if your modem has a web page with a reboot button and you press that, then save the session such that restoring the session causes the reboot button to press, but that is extremely unlikely.
    By default Firefox loads tabs one at a time anyway so it's unlikely to slow things down when loading sessions. If Firefox can restore sessions properly, the Session Manager should be able to do so as well, since Session Manager uses Firefox's restore capabilities.
    I'd recommend disabling plugins in Firefox and/or other addons and see if that helps. If you can figure out what changed recently that would help narrow things down.
    As for Session Manager data. It doesn't store anything other than the sessions. You can delete those if you wish."
    My reply:
    Well, I have a cable internet connection, so I don't think speed is the problem there.
    Are you sure about Firefox loading only one tab at a time? I know when I load a session, it seems to show several tabs loading at the same time, and I can't remember it ever not being that way.
    Frankly, though, I need more specific, targeted help than being told to just start randomly disabling extensions. I've ALREADY wasted an INCREDIBLE amount of time on this and am ALREADY EXTREMELY frustrated and aggravated, and to just go blindly shooting around in the dark at random is only going to throw craploads more wasted time and aggravation onto the already huge pile. I'm at my wit's end here. I can't take much more of this. I need REAL help. I need more specific, targeted advice about what sorts of things I should be looking for, what sorts of things I should be trying, etc. I don't have any patience left to just start flailing around randomly and likely getting nowhere fast.

  • Please help with Contribute issue- Adobe or anyone!

    My issues are many- I don't know where to start. First, as a long-time Adobe customer, I can not believe how support has declined- I really miss my "support package" from the early 90's when I spoke with a person who really knew how to address my problems and/or questions. I am so tired of being outsourced to someone who has no idea how to address my problem- only to send me to "Document #8932023912 03" off of the Adobe website. I want to talk to someone who KNOWS and APPRECIATES this product, and who understands its internal behavior (like what I get when I call MAC SUPPORT). I will pay for it! I have invested thousands of dollars on Adobe software and am now at an unacceptable standstill.
    My small business relies on the Adobe Creative Suite 4 and the Contribute program. Up until now, I have never had a complaint, especially after moving to Mac a few years ago. Troubles started after two things (still not sure what the culprit was) - installing Snow Leopard and installing a Wacom Bamboo tablet (on the same day- my bad). Well, Illustrator, Photoshop work just fine as well as my other non-Adobe programs. But I can't even open InDesign (will post this on the proper post) or Contribute. So Apple had me deduce that I needed to create a new User and try things there. I eventually migrated to this new user but still, I cannot use Contribute.
    I have set permissions with the program and contents of the folder- in addition to my Contribute keys to no avail. I can't even open it. Nor can I open it in my Root user which at least lets me run In Design. I am at a total loss and I need to update a website for my client. PLEASE someone, I would so greatly appreciate any advice or instruction as to how to run Contribute on my new user. Or in my Root user. I just need to get it to open! Reinstall did nothing PLEASE HELP.
    A special note to anyone from Adobe: I want to talk to someone via a support package-- NOT outsourced. Does this fee-based option exist? It doesn't seem to from the main support number. If someone can help direct me, I would appreciate the proper instruction to do so. I need to get my InDesign running again and I have already invested multiple hours, days with Adobe support with NO solution at all. This is unacceptable in my mind, especially for the moneys invested.
    Thank you in advance... Aimee M.

    I totally share your views on Adobe period. I loved Macromedia., they also answered all my questions, then Adobe had to buy them out! I called them today (sales Dept., that's where they answer rather quickly., of course), they explained the following: You can pay for a live person, but the prices differ  in that they come in packages. In other words, you can pay a flat rate per hour for one-on-one OR pay for one-on-one tech support 5 times per month, and the amount of times per month vary from that point on., and so does the price!  I'm baffled! They are HORRIBLE!! . Like yourself, am on a standstill ever since I've been stuck with not being able to publish my site with current edits and it gives me a message whereas my own company name is "currently editing the page," so it keeps kicking out. I've tried everything, including but not limited to the following: going to the library and checking out books to troubleshoot; going on Adobe pages for support as well the Help features on the software program., etc...I'm exhausted!  ADOBE you guys need to reassess your Customer Care Support and your outsourcing business as well!!! YOU WILL LOOSE YOUR CUSTOMERS RATHER QUICKLY!!
