Sudden change in billable usage

On 11th or 12th December it looks to us like Bing changed the way they were counting usage as our daily billable usage shot up from typically 50/day to 1500/day (I would attach a screen shot of my usage report but it won't let me yet).
Did everyone else see this same leap and was it telegraphed by Bing in advance?

There was no change in how usage is reported. There are a number of possible reasons for this change:
Something changed in your application; different key being used, sessions no longer being used.
Your account has exceeded one of the free limits and now those transactions are being counted as billable.
There was an increase in usage of your application.
There was an unexpected change or error in your application that caused it to generate more transactions. From time to time I come across people who have services that make a ton of requests unexpectedly due to some error on their server.
There is a design issue in your application; does your application make repeated calls to the Bing Maps services if no results are returned by the geocoder, routing services...
There was a backlog of transactions on your account that hadn't been processed yet (unlikely)
Send me an email at ricky_brundritt at Hotmail.com and I can look into this deeper for you.

  • IMAC OSX 10.7.4 Safari why does screen suddenly change to large print etc when I cam surfing the net and how do I change it back to normal size

    Safari - Since changing from Leopard to OSX when surfing the net, my screen suddenly changes to large print/icons etc.  How do I change it back to normal.  It is driving me crazy

    That's caused by the "Smart zoom" feature of the magic mouse.  It's a Double tap with one finger to zoom and repeat to unzoom.
    You can turn the feature off if desired in System Preferences > Mouse > Point & Click tab

  • Why did my calendar view suddenly change? Using iOS 7.1 and I've been using this version for a few weeks with no problem with my calendar. Now the view has changed and I can't view a list mode without seeing the month too

    Why did my calendar view suddenly change in iCal? I've been using ios7 fôr a few weeks now with no problems. Suddenly, without any updates or anything, the calendar view changed and I can no longer view it as a list without having the entire month seen as well.

    Hey Gattypyle,
    Thanks for the question. You simply need to go back to Day/Week view, then tap the list-view icon once more.

  • The font in Safari's bookmarks bar and tabs bar has suddenly changed

    The font in Safari's bookmarks bar and tabs bar has suddenly changed to a lighter font.  How do I change the font back?  I'm not speaking of the font size/type in the web browser in viewing web pages, but the font in the application itself has changed. It's rather annoying and would like to be able to change it back!  I'm running Safari v5.1.7

    OK, Margie, here's what to do . . .
    First Quit Safari.
    Then Find your User's (Home) folder library. 
    It's hidden, but here's how you find the Home Library:
    Click on the desktop to get the Finder menu.  Then go up to  "Go" in the menu bar, while holding down the option key.
    You'll now see the User Library in the drop down list. Open it, then look for the Fonts folder.
    Take the fonts folder to the desktop.
    Restart Safari.
    Any better?
    (Warning:  This is only for the Users/Home > Library > Fonts folder.  Under no circumstances, should this be done with the SYSTEM > Library > Fonts folder.) 

  • External hard drives suddenly changed to read only

    Three of my external hard drives suddenly changed to read only. These hard drives have been working on my macbook pro for months. When I click on get info 'read only' shows up and there is no lock icon nor is there a window that shows name | permissions, also in disk utility the 'verify disk premissions', 'verify disk', 'repair disk', and 'repair disk premissions' buttons are ghosted and I can not select them. I have not made any changes to my computer and I have read many other posts and have not been able to find a solution.

    About a hundred times with no luck. Some of my research is leading to Western Digital, there may be a problem with the drives' 'smartware' software. I've been using this drive for months and I never used the 'smartware', but I tried it anyway with no luck. I just remembered that four days ago I had this drive plugged this drive into an Iomega wireless storage device and it seemed to work fine. Now the wireless storage device can't find the drive at all. I just need to know if there is a way I can change the permissions back to read/write, otherwise I will have to buy another drive and transfer all the data to the new drive and re-formatt the wd drive.

  • IMac (10.4) suddenly changed the resolution of my display

    Hi, my old iMac (10.4) suddenly changed the resolution of my display and I can not change it back. It only happens for my account, and not for the other two accounts on the same computer.
    I went to system preferences and display, but the resolution is already the highest.
    Can somebody help ?
    Thanks.

    I am sorry to bother you. I found the answer in one of these forums - Somebody had the same issue: I accidentally pressed a couple of keys and turned on the "Zoom" function - It is hidden in System Preferences / Universal Access, so difficult to find.
    Klaus1 gave the answer in this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/message/11718411#11718411
    Thanks anyway. 

  • Modulation suddenly changed

    Hello
    The modulation on my homehub has suddenly changed from G.992.5 Annex A to G.992.3 Annex A and my speeds have dropped dramatically from Downstream 5,759 Kbps & Upstream 1,008 Kbps to Downstream 1,603 Kbps & Upstream 1,100 Kbps. There is apparently a telephony problem in my area affecting ISDN lines which I assume may be affecting my broadband as well. Can I assume that after this problem is fixed the modulation on my homehub and speeds will automatically revert to what they were, or will I have to do something ?
    Thanks for your help

    Could all this just be down to the local telephony problem ? If so will everything revert once the BT report that the have fixed the telephony problem in my area or will I have to do something to get things back to how they were ?

  • Desktop picture suddenly changed by itself

    I woke up the morning turned on my mac and booted it to find that the desktop picture was the blue galaxy.
    When I shut it down last night it was set to the purple nebula as far as I can recall. I havent enabled "change desktop picture every 30 minutes" so I'm very puzzled as to why it has randomly changed itself. The only I did yesterday was install a couple of Apps from the App store. A photo duplicate finder - and an application uninstaller...
    I'm almost wondering if I have downloaded a trojan or back door open - ridiculous I know as my security is pretty paranoid and none of my safeguards has reported anything, nor do I get software from non official sources, but I'm at a loss to figure how this has suddenly changed iteslf... I mean computers don't do that... do they?
    Anyone who can explain what has happened I will be very grateful.

    There's a bug that changes the wallpaper to the default one after each startup. To test this, open System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver, and see if you can open it.
    Try deleting the Desktop settings file. Open a Finder window, select Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type ~/Library/Preferences. Then, delete "com.apple.desktop.plist" and "com.apple.systempreferences.plist", and restart. Finally, change your background

  • Sudden Jump in Broadband usage

    This month I have experienced a sudden jump in my usage. My average daily usage has approximately doubled.
    Yesterday usage was 2.1GB .... Have data traffic monitors running on my iPads and PC's and I have an enormous discrepancy.
    My Internet WiFi is shutdown between 22:30 and 7:30 every day. 
    Usual average monthly usage is 30.04GB ..... so far this month I am at 22.5GB as of the 12/6/15.
    Clearly, my worry is that my 40GB will be exceed and subsequently be charged for what I perceive to be bandwidth I have not used.
    Where can I find out WHEN my Internet (as in time of day) is being used and ideally how much traffic has been generated during that period (on an hourly basis would suffice)

    Unless I can resolve this, I guess the only answer is to cancel my BT Broadband and move to an unlimited package with another provider.
    All I ask is for some basic information, breakdown of usage during 24 hours, how difficult can this be ! Any breakdown !
    Call me cynical, but what better way to force users onto the more expensive unlimited packages in order the save going over their monthly limit. Had BT broadband for I think 3 years now and never once gone over my monthly limit.
    Something is wrong and all I want is the answer to a simple request from BT.
    Like I mentioned before, I know that their recording of user data is flawed.

  • Hotmail suddenly changed appearance and now presents with the top of the page blue with lines. I have a screenshot...

    Running Firefox 15.0. Hotmail suddenly changed appearance and my page is not at the bottom of the screen. The top 5/6 of the page is a series of horizontal blue strips. Text in the blue section is the Windows Live titles like "Home, Devices, Mobile, etc". When I try to compose a new message, text from the blue area partially covers the "To" button, so I have to position the cursor at the very bottom of the button to enter an address. I tried Hotmail in IE and it appears just fine, so it must be a compatibility problem between Hotmail & Firefox. Hotmail has not responded to my email questions. I could understand if this happened at the very beginning of a session, just after I power up, but this happened after I had been active in Hotmail and other sites. Other sites are not affected, just Hotmail, and just in Firefox.

    Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.
    *<b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages
    If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a (too) high value can cause issues.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)

    It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with overlapping text.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

    Are you sure none of the libs or executables for xorg-* got damaged before the system called for an fsck?  The power went out on me once and my hard drive "forgot" about 75% of my kernel modules, although it was a conventional hard drive and not an SSD.

    Is your copy of that bootchart that blurry or is flicker messing with it?  It looks like its been resized even at largest setting. I can hardly read it.

  • Aspect ratio suddenly changes in LR develop window without user interaction

    I imported some Nikon NEF images with sidecar JPEGs using NikonView/NikonTransfer (rotate image turned on). Afterwards I imported the images into Lightroom (copy to new locacation). The LR option "treat JPEG files next to RAW files as seperate" is turned off.
    I can see every image with correct orientation in the Lightroom Library.
    But for 2 images when I switch to LR Develop the aspect ratio suddenly changes in film strip and large image display. The image is a 2:3 image but in Develop window it is shown as 3:2 image (not rotated but errorneously shrinked/stretched). That is really strange. I did nothing else than switching between Library and Develop! No rotation, no crop, nothing.
    I can toggle between Library and Develop window: The image is shown 2:3 in Library and 3:2 in Develop.
    This behaviour occurs for 2 images, not for all images.

    For some reason it just started to work now. Have no idea what didn't work before.
