Skype listen to your customers, we want modern skype back!
I always used both the desktop version and modern skype. I used the desktop version because of the the things that it had that the other skype didn't which was screen share and being able to see offline and online status correctly but I always just had that in the background to switch to every now and then. I preferred the modern windows because it was easier to read and could be snapped to the side of the screen and easily accessed without effecting use of desktop applications. Instead of being lazy and getting rid of it why don't you add updates to it to fix whatever problems you were having to it. As my friend said "I would rather have one good skype over two incomplete skypes" If you actually listened to other users a majority of them want it back and at this rate you will end up losing customers. You never gave a valid enough reason to get rid of it and it still runs on certain things so why not just update the darn thing instead of getting rid of it. To me this is just laziness on your part and a lack of customer appreciation and understanding.
I want them both as they were. Modern Skype was great for my laptop becuse it has a tablet mode so I can make use of the touch screen elements and that's the primary mode I used. Useing the touch keyboard on the desktop is a pain in the ass and losing modern Skype takes a rather large chunk out of my reason to use tablet mode.

BT PLEASE listen to your customers!
BT PLEASE LISTEN TO YOUR CUSTOMERS!!!!! BT HomeHub 5 is the worst router I have ever come across in all my years connecting to the Internet. I have tried all your "solutions" to wireless dropping out every few minutes. My hub is showing connection to the internet but wifi is constantly dropping out and judging by searches on Bt site and the Internet most people are having the same problem. Why did you choose to supply customers with an inferior router whilst promoting BT Infinity - the speeds are good but the wifi connection is a major problem. I am sick and tired of ringing for help as your customer advisers are clearly reading off a script. The majority of your customers are long time internet users and have tried all your scripted solutions long before ringing the company - connecting with Ethernet cable, changing channels, resetting router, restarting router etc etc. All I want is an internet connection over wifi that WORKS! Im off now to buy another router and if it works I WILL be contacting BT for the cost of new router as why should I pay for a service which BT cannot supply.
As a new BT customer on infinity I was a bit worried about things that I have read about the Home Hub 5.
I can only speak as I find and I have had no trouble with this router. It has not dropped out at all and the wireless signal is better than the Netgear router that I was using with my previous ISP, and that router was good.
I can get a good signal through two single brick and plaster walls and if I go outside can still get a signal through an aditional brick cavity wall. Something the Netgear could not do.
I have the B version, perhaps you have a faulty router. I will be interested to see if your purchase of a new router cures your problems and so proves your HH 5 faulty. -
It seems like EVERYBODY prefers Mavericks to Yosemite. Quite a few people want to go back. Is Apple going to listen or do as they please?
My issues are the Dock, slow restart and missing features.This is a user-to-user forum. You are not addressing Apple. You can offer feedback here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/
Good advice.
Unfortunately, there is no feedback for the Mac App Store which is where the Mavericks issue belongs.
If feedback is left for Yosemite I'm not sure that would help with Mavericks. Moreover, with Mavericks "dead to Apple" I wonder if it would receive any attention. I know for a fact, they read all feedback for current hardware and software, but Mavericks is no longer current.
Where exactly would you suggest feedback be sent?
Apple does (and has) changed its mind, I'm just not sure the best way to do that. -
hello sir/madam
this is a very urgent and important question. i nedd your assinstance.
i have iphone 3g. i was working well. about 2 months earlier i bought an app of $2.99. after then every thing was okay. but last week i installed some free games and 2 days later itunes send me a reciept via email and you guyz charged me $34. now whenever i try to install free apps they want my billing info. please i need your help and want those money back.
$34 for free games , i will show u the reciept. if its not possible to get the money back i will forced to take proper action.
thank you sir /madam.The games might be free but I think you've clicked In-App purchase which cost money. You are warned before you accept the In-App purchase. You not that young and you can read so take action if you must. It's your own fault and all purchases are final. Good luck.

Why has Apple decided that online orders for Macbook Air display and speak VO when first opened from the box? I"m guessing 1%or 2 % of your customers know what it is or want it.
You are not talking to Apple, we are just users like you. Only Apple knows that answer.

Not sure if I am doing this right. This is my first time in the support community.
I imagine what I put in my heading was supposed to go in here.
I want to use Back to my mac. When I try to turn it on, it says "Back to my mac may be slow because more than one device on your network is providing network services. Turn off NAT and DHCP on one of the devices and try again. See the documentation that came with your device for information about turning off network services"
Does anyone know how I do this? I contacted my ISP (Telus in Canada) and they did not know anything (not that they usually do).Why do ISPs insist upon making things so difficult for their customers?
If you cannot get them to understand that you would prefer to use your own router over their piece of cheap junk, perhaps the information in the following will be useful:
http://keithbalomben.wordpress.com/2012/03/29/telus-actiontec-v1000h-hacks-and-i nformation/
Scroll down to DHCP Settings
You will need to log in with proper "technician" credentials. They are provided in the above link as
Username: tech
Password: t3lu5tv
... but these may or may not work. Try it, and if you cannot get anywhere at least now you know what to ask Telus to do in return for your business. -
I have a late 2005 power PC G5 that I want to bring back to life. I need to replace the original hard drive, a Maxtor 250 GB Sata. Can I replace it with modern drives, SATA 5-6 etc?
I knew I should never get rid of my old G5's. By the way, there is a browser still supported for the PPC, TenFourFox, if you're not using it already. Go to the Floodgap website (they author it) download it for free. The only thing it doesn't support is the Flash plugin, but the browser works great. Other video types are supported. It's based on Firefox, and runs most of the plugins and add-ons. It's very fast, and beats all other browsers on the browser compatibility and speed test. That's now my default on my G5's. Firefox and Safari are no longer supported. As far as the OS, both Tiger and Leopard were solid for me. The reason, as I stated before, was iMovie. The version in Tiger with iLife was far superior to what Apple changed it to. They 'dumbed it down' for the masses. Even the newest iLife 11 on my Mac Pro quad isn't is good, in my opinion. So Leopard should be fine for you. It's a much larger browser in terms of sheer megabytes and disk space, but it's fine. As far as getting an OS disc, I'm seeing Tiger for about $45.00, Leopard for $50 - 60.00 on that famous auction site. As far as RAM, I have 8GB in my G5 2.3, but you should check Activity Monitor when you are running your apps. See how much green slice you have left (unused RAM). You might find you don't need eight. A Mac Pro will grab more free RAM than a PPC machine will. I have a hard time maxing out use of my 8 on the PPC. Not true with the eight on my Mac Pro. The OS doesn't hesitate to grab and use it. You might be OK with 6GB on your PPC. More will not make you faster, as long as you still have free RAM available. As far as backup on your resurrected machine: look for a firewire enabled backup if can. Use CCC (Carbon Copy Cloner) and make a clone backup. Next time your PPC machine wipes out the hard drive, just take your Firewire drive and plug it into another PPC machine, and you can select it as your boot drive. You'll be back and running in five minutes. You can also take the physical drive out of your enclosure, and put it in your tower to replace the failed drive, and you'll be back to where you were in less than ten minutes, OS and all. The PowerMac has an 800 port, so you can do the 800 on the machine to an 800 port on your backup. A firewire 800 to 800 cable is only about $8.00. It runs nice and fast through the 800 port. I like the OWC Mercury Extreme enclosures. They use USB, Firewire 800, and eSATA, so all your options are open.

Faults, why lie to your customers?
It's 10pm on Christmas Eve and after my 5th call to BT I've been promised that an engineer is currently working on my fault and I've been assured that it will be fixed by 11.59pm. Not even the call centre operator I was talking to believed this one!
Why can’t you just admit that it’s not going to be fixed and apologise? Is that really how you want to treat your customers… Is it to much to ask for an occasional update, I’ve never had one phone call, text or email from BT and when I ring I’m told the same old corporate lies. very poor....Welcome to this forum.

I recently added my entire music library to the "cloud" for an annual fee. Now I can't listen to anything unless I have an internet connection. I want my library back on my laptop, the whole thing (original laptop got erased). How do I do this?
Hello ggjsa,
Congratulations on your new laptop! I understand that you have copied your old iTunes Library to your new computer, but you are still not seeing the music. I recommend reviewing Part 5 in the section titled "External drive" in the following article:
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
If you are still having trouble transferring the library using this method, you may want to try using the Home Sharing method in the article.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M. -
I get nothing but error messages, -
"Your IMAP server wants to alert you to the following: 113 that mail is not available" or the same with: 364?
Now there are hundreds stacked up on my desktop.
I cannot find the answer anywhere. You need to give answers to how to fix these errors because when I "search" "error code" or the number there is NOTHING. NOTHING! Yet you give us these stupid error codes
then you do not give us ANYTHING on how to fix these. These error codes make me so mad it makes me hate outlook, and hate the developers and hate microsoft. How in the world can you give us ERROR codes without the explanation of what
to do or how to fix it. You need to add each error code number in your "search" then explain what it is and how to fix it. I am not a tech. I am a lawyer. I have googled the entire string of error code and nothing is clear.
So, for the last several years, I get these error codes. Also, there is another error code that won't go away--it is the password error code that asks if I want to store the password. Yes, so I say YES. but it pops back. I am sick of this. This is the reason
I hate Microsoft and I love google. #1 they respond to error, #2 them try to fix them you do not. I paid the full price to buy the OUtlook 2010, almost $500 just to get outlook, and all I got was error codes. I could not even open it because all I would get
was that error codes and NO ONE knew how to fix them. WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM that you cannot fix the stupid error codes that you imbed? PLEASE HELPHi,
I understand how frustrated you are when facing such an issue, maybe I can provide some suggestions on the problem.
Based on the description, you should be using an IMAP account setup in Outlook. As for the error message, usually it's caused by a corrupted message on the Server. I suggest you logon the Webmail site, check if sending/receiving emails works well.
If you find any unusual emails that cannot be read or sent, try deleting them to try again.
I also suggest you create a new profile to setup the IMAP account:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/829918/en-us
Contact your Email Service Provider to get the correct and latest account settings, since you have been using Outlook for years, some settings may have been changed while you haven't been informed.
For the steps to setup an account in Outlook 2010, please refer to:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/outlook-help/add-or-remove-an-email-account-HA010354414.aspx
I hope this helps.

Bought a rip-off App that stalks your activity, want my money back but they blocked me!
Alright guys!
My problem is that I bought this app called iTeleport VNC. Basically what it does is show your Mac screen on your iPhone. I thought this should be fun and so I decided to buy it for € 3,99 (it seems to be for sale for € 17,99 now, probably I was lucky and it was discounted — thank god!).
So I downloaded the app to my iPhone, I downloaded the other one to my Mac and tried to make it run.
The first very mysterious thing is that is starts asking your Gmail address and password. It says it needs them because all of this runs over Google Talk servers. I find this quite strange because why would they need my email address and its password for this? All they need is the server IP, password and port numbers or something like that. I gave in a fake Gmail address that I had made some time ago and continued.
This is all during installation by the way.
Then a window pops up that asks you if you want to enable screen sharing. I don't think I want to share my screen, do I? If you click no, it will not work because a message will pop up and tell you that the app couldn't find screen sharing and that it will try again in 10 seconds (and it goes on like that…).
It also said that if I click yes, I will be able to disable it later again. So I thought "alright, let's click yes and then let's disable it". Unfortunately there is no option to disable it in the settings.
I don't understand why it needs all that stuff like email passwords, etc. I have another app which allowed me to control iTunes over my iPhone and I think it works a similar way. Not exactly the same of course, but kind of. And it doesn't ask any passwords or such a thing.
To me this seems like they're just trying to collect private data. I don't want them to see my screen and I don't want them to know my Gmail password. But you have to do this in order to make the app run.
After a while I finally was able to make it run. There seemed to be 2 modes: one, where you will see the logic screen of your Mac on your iPhone. The other one requires you to enter the password to your computer in the App, so it always redirects you to your desktop automatically. Basically it skips the login window. But I preferred to type the password in the login window. Unfortunately this wasn't possible because you weren't able to type anything in that field.
And that's where I decided to stop using this app and deleted it.
It didn't say any of that in the App description, which I think it should. Some people don't want to "register" to their service my giving away their personal information, this should definitely be mentioned.
So obviously I wanted my money back… because I find it wrong, it's not what was written in the description.
I went to the iTunes store (inside of iTunes), then clicked the little arrow in the top right corner beside my email address, clicked on "Account" and then you will find a link to your purchase history.
There's a button to report a problem, and that's what I did. I selected the app, reported the problem and wrote basically what I wrote abobe. There was also a drop-down menu which asked you in which category this goes. Unfortunately I selected something like "This app doesn't work the way it should" and that's how iTunes blocked me from reporting it again. Because after I submit my request, a message came and told me that Apple isn't responsible on how 3rd party apps work. No they aren't, but they're responsible for what they put in their store and they need to make sure it works and that it's not against people's privacy.
So now I can't report it again because when I try this it tells me I have already reported a problem for this app (or that the problem is too old, which isn't the case. Plus, how can the problem be too old? I think it's meant to be something like I bought the app too long ago. Fail!).
The big questions now is, does anyone know how I can get my € 3,99 back?
Do you believe I should contact the people who made this app? But what should I say?
All help is appreciated guys!
Thank you!
Using: iMac with latest OS X + iPhone 4 with latest iOSI would suggest you first read their FAQ:
http://www.iteleportmobile.com/support/faq
That addresses the request for a Google account and explains how to get things up without needing to provide your Gmail account information. If you continue to have questions, contact the developer's technical support or ask for advice on their forums:
http://www.iteleportmobile.com/support/faq
I think if you'll work with the developer, you'll probably be able to sort things out.
