When asked if I would like to answer questions after my internet visit and I check NO DON'T ASK AGAIN why do you keep asking several times a day?

Who exactly is "you"? This is a peer-to-peer forum where users try to help other users. In any case, you could always take the survey to let Verizon know you don't like surveys..
Besides, sometimes folks just change their minds.

What should I do; My Macbook Pro Retina 13" performing worse after a visit to the Genius Bar.

To give a little background; my MacBook is my baby. I keep it as safe and clean as I possibly can. The only damage that has come to it is a tiny dent in the left corner of the screen, when my little sister took it, ran, and dropped it on a wooden floor. It's my pride and joy, and I would never mistreat my computer. I don't loan it to friends, I always know where it is, and I do my best to keep it from dying. The only thing I do which is problematic is not shutting it down often enough; I usually keep it on for days at a time, I don't sleep much and spend a lot of time on my computer, but for such a high price, I was expecting that it could handle it. Onto the problem.
My computer was having minor problems with the trackpad and keyboard and had been since I'd bought it, but I hadn't been noticing it much until recently. I remember my mom pointed it out when I first got it and I told her she was crazy. I suspected a little hardware problem that my AppleCare would cover. When I went in to the Genius Bar, they opened up my computer and told me I had serious water damage. I was shocked as I'd never brought my computer close to water; I don't bring it in the bathroom, so no condensation, I have never spilled on it, I don't usually eat or drink around it, etc. I was given very minimal detail or explanation, simply told over and over that it was water damage, and they told me my AppleCare had been deactivated, which made me even MORE upset. The store told me it would cost almost $1000 to fix, at which point I was about to cry since that's almost the cost of my computer. I was going to wait until I got home to get an opinion from my hometown Apple Store, as they've known me for a long time and I was upset with the unhelpful service at the Genius Bar around my college.
My current problem is that I don't think I can wait until May. My computer has been acting up ever since the Genius Bar visit earlier this month, my screen is shaking and the color is going in and out, sound is acting strangely, and I'm really, really upset since none of these problems existed before my visit. I didn't feel it was a problem until recently, since it was pretty scattered and I felt like if I ignored it until I got home in mid-May, I could get it fixed then. Now, I feel as though something was jostled or screwed with while they were checking my computer and it's causing me a lot of problems, problems that are interfering with my use of this otherwise awesome device. I really love my MacBook, it's the best computer I've had, but I am at my wits end.
AppleCare is insurance, and I don't understand how they could take it away for something that I have no control over. When I bought AppleCare, I was told it would cover any damage that happened to the hardware or software of my computer, which is the whole reason I bought it! I wouldn't have wasted money on it if I knew this was a way to take the responsibility of fixing my computer away from Apple! I am beyond angry with the service I received, the "rules" of AppleCare, and the performance of my computer after the visit. I can barely type this since my screen refuses to stay still or one color! I was having absolutely no screen problems before this visit!!!
This is my last resort; I may return to the Genius Bar sometime next week for a reassessment. I am extremely upset with the service I have received and the new problems arising. This computer is barely seven/eight months old. It should NOT be having these problems. I can't help but think it was a manufacturing error and I was given an incorrect diagnosis. As a final, desperate cry for help, I thought I'd turn to the support forum for advice; is there anything you guys think I should be doing or any way I can possibly fix this problem myself/without Apple since apparently I have no insurance even though I paid $250 for problems like this to be covered?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Hold the Power button until your Mac turns off, and turn it on again. As you tried to install a firmware update, plug the MacBook to its charger before turning it on.
Note that firmware updates are installed in the next startup, so don't worry about this, as the update hasn't been installed yet.
Respecting to other freezes, it may indicate a hardware problem. Check if the same freezes happen in the future

The TCP/IP connection does not closed after a VISA close

I am using the VISA functions to communicate with a Sorenson SGA power supply from a Windows XP computer. I have the VISA TCPIP Resource defined in MAX and use this alias name in the VISAResourceName for the input to the VISA Open. Then I write a SCPI command, such as *IDN?, and read the repsonse. Then I close the VISA session. When I look at the TCP statistics using the netstat -n command, I get the following response:
Proto           Local Address                 Foreign Address    State
TCP            10.10.10.9:3881              10.10.10.1:111       TIME_WAIT
TCP            10.10.10.9:3882              10.10.10.1:111       TIME_WAIT
If I query the ID again, I get 2 more TCP connections with different local ports numbers. Every time I perform the query, I get 2 more TCP port connections at different local ports. It takes about 1 minute for the TIME_WAIT's to time out. If I query the Sorenson enough, I can fill up my allowable local port connections.
1) Why doesn't the TCP connections go away after the VISA Close?
2) Should I be opening and closing the VISA session every time I want to talk to the Sorenson?
3) What does the VISAResourceName control or constant actual do to resolve the alias into a IP?
This Sorenson power supply does not seem to be very quick to repsond to TCP requests. If I set the timeout on the VISA Open to anything less the 100ms, I cannot get a session open every time. It will fail about 50% of the time.
Has anyone had experince talking to the Sorenson power Supplies using VISA TCPIP?
Thanks,
Julia

Hi Julia,
Let me try answering your questions here.
1) I'm actually currently looking into this to see if this is expected behavior, and I'll definitely post back to let you know what I find.
2) You do not need to close a VISA session everytime you want to communicate with the device, you can leave the same session open and keep using that session, instead closing it out at the end.
3) The VISA aliases and what they correspond to are stored in a visaconf.ini file. There is more information about this file and where it is located on your hard disk in this KnowledgeBase article here. This visaconf.ini file is checked to see what the actual resources being looked up are.
Let me know if I answered your questions, I will write back with more information on question 1.

What Apple wants from his customers?
1) I've paid my iPhone 4S 900 euros;
2) I'm used to buy music and apps from iTunes store;
3) my iCloud space costs 32 euros per year
and, like me, millions of customers around the world!
and Apple does not allow me (and many others) to use the internet traffic for which I (we) pay my (our) provider, that's not among those that directly sell iPhone??? Is this your idea of a really unblocked device as you falsely declsre from the pages of Apple online store ?!? Shame on you!
If I had know that the 7.1 led to this I'd never updated my iPhone. No one (Apple and the sites that live because of her) told about this issue in their enthusiastic comments on the new, updated version, of iOS. Shame on you!
This would claim a class action against such a behaviour!
I'm disgusted
thank you

After a visit in USA my iPhone 5 doesn't work here in Germany

Hi,
after a visit in the USA the iPhone 5 don't connect with my home cell partner!
What can I do?
Thanks for any help.

What troubleshooting have you tried, besides removing the SIM and trying it in another phone? Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. If that doesn't help, then go into Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings.

Massive battery life drop after Internet Recovery OS re-install

Hey,
A couple months ago, I made the brilliant decision to try to install Windows 7 with Boot Camp at 3am on a weekend after several days of no sleep (unfortunately, this is one of the least-poor poor decisions I've made recently, but I suppose that's for another forum). Long story short, Og turn on MacBook, Og open Disk Utility, Og click-click, SSD go bye-bye—formatted, every last bit of it (haha, me make pun-pun!). Luckily, ML ships virtually tard-proofed, so there's little I can do besides showering with Bernie (this pun courtesy of the 'lil sis; I'm innocent) to make him breathe his last. This little bit of Apple genius is irrefutable proof of God—praised be his noodly appendage. But ever since Internet Recovery blessed me with Bernie II (R'amen), I've noticed during countless nights lying with him in bed that his stamina has decreased significantly, versus his pre-IR days. I can't give you firm numbers of his endurance before the operation, but now, after even the least vigourous play, he's drained beyond further exertion after no more than 2-2.5 hours. I've tried various tweaks to increase battery life—making sure his mail parts are only shooting off when I work them manually, the same for receiving messages as well, and I've been monitoring his GPU usage; thanks to ML he's much more conscientious about being discrete, and I rarely have to limit him to using his integrated components. (Note: I'm using writing this as an excuse to start an essay, and its foundation really needs to get laid ASAP, so unfortunately the allusions/euphemisms stop here.) Again, I can't give precise numbers about its original battery life, but I was blown away by it, likely averaging at or in excess of the advertised 7-hours. I'm a geek and spent my childhood with eyes never further than a couple of inches from my CRT (and have the vision to prove it), but I really have no f'ing clue what would be causing this. I never doubted that the battery life decreased (and dramatically so), but now that I've started booting up into Windows regularly, any trace of doubt has vanished. Using Windows 8 set on Maximum Performance (and, as I'm sure most of you are aware, Windows only uses the discrete GPU, even when doing nothing graphically-intensive), the battery life is still significantly better than using ML. I've searched and searched and searched and can't find a single reference to this issue online. I'd appreciate any help you can offer. Just in case it's of any assistance, I'll put some might-be-relevant-maybe info below, including things I've thought of that could be the source/contributing to the problem (again, I really have no idea what I'm talking about when it comes to true geek know-how):
- It's a rMBP 15" w/16GB RAM
- When I formatted the HD, I wiped out everything. Yes, obviously there was enough on there for the laptop to launch into Internet Recovery, but I'm thinking that was all that was left. When I've been trying to think of why there's nobody online with this issue, something that's popped into my head is that anyone who knows what Disk Utility does is probably savvy enough (when not sleep-deprived) to not use it to format their HD, or at least to heed to the plenty of "Don't click yes, tardums" warnings that I'm sure popped up as I zoomed by them. And I can't think of many other ways for grandma-level Mac users to wipe their HD, so the lack of online info would make sense.
- This was a couple months back, and I can't remember precisely the OS version when all this went down. I'm certain it was ML since I think my rMBP shipped with 10.8.0 (if not 10.8.1, if any did), but it could have been anything between 10.8.0 and 10.8.2. I'm pretty sure it wasn't 10.8.0 since I remember updating to 10.8.1 very soon after purchasing the laptop over the summer, but again, not certain.
Alright, that's it. I'm sure this post doesn't meet forum standards for plethora of reasons, but I'm a poor little private liberal arts university student who is desolate now that his $3,000 laptop isn't getting top-notch battery life, so mods, please dig deep in your hearts and don't delete. Thanks, yous da best.

There were a number of posts from folks with various models about a downgrade in battery life after an upgrade to Mountain Lion - so you aren't alone. However, since you're still under warranty, I would take the machine to your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them diagnose the problem. Could be that your battery just isn't up to par (and I'm assuming that you've all updates installed?)...
Good luck,

All data is wiped from my iphone after internet was serverely hacked, hence transfered to my iphone and everyone elses iphones in the house

Our internet was hacked really bad, whatever virus/ trojan it was, my two housemates & I didnt realise straight away, by then we had synced our iphones to itunes on our computers, it wasnt long before we noticed our iphones acting strange, they would freeze up, bombing out, our computers were worse, it got through the anti-viruses, activated our web cams & mics. Then one of my housemates got a settings message window pop up on his iphone screen saying "I will put it all back if you give me what I want", we freaked, we had no idea what it meant. The other iphones were telling us to sync to itunes.. We sync to itunes again, then about half an hr apart of each other- each of our phones turned themselves off, we turn them on again.... and discovered all data, apps, messages, photo's, everything completely wiped clean- gone. Most of the programs on our computers had been changed, all data on itunes was gone, we just couldnt believe what had happened.
I never did a back up- I trusted the iphones, I didnt think that i needed to. I had tried again to sync to Itunes after I uninstalled Itunes & reinstalled it again on my main computer but nothing. I thought that I better not try syncing it to my laptop then.
I have uninstalled most programs in my laptop & tried to clear out any dodgey data i could find. I have left what iphone files that I could find in there, but I cant tell which iphone/ apple data is what nor can I read any of it.
I have seen on other sites there are programs or tools to try and retrieve data, but I dont trust the internet, I'm not risking being hacked again by downloading from sites I dont know.
Can someone please PLEASE advise me some kind of instructions as to how to retrieve my iphone data out of my laptop??
**I'm wondering if this Apple site will publish this, because I have never found anything on the net where people have had a hack as bad as ours, so it makes me wonder if there are people out there who do talk about bad hacks- if they're story ever gets published or is our hack "1 in a million!".

Syncing your phone will restore the iTunes content to your phone. I suspect the content has not actually been deleted from your phone, just not visible due to a glitch(it's happened before). Re-syncing will fix things.

Unable to access data/storage space of failed primary partition after internet recovery

Hello,
So just a bit of quick background info to the issue: I experienced my first major failure with my iMac a few weeks ago (early Feb) where the main partition on my 3TB Fusion drive developed a corruption of some sort. I went through all the disk verification/repair procedures I could find, however nothing worked and I ended up with a grey screen on bootup that had a round logo with a slash through it. I tried a reinstall of OS X Yosemite from the recovery partition, however this failed part-way through, and I was forced to perform an internet recovery instead.
This worked, and I now have my iMAC stable again, however the recovery process created a new primary partition in addition to the old primary partition. This wasn't a major issue for me as I planned to recover some files from the failed partition that my backups had missed. Unfortunately since then, that old partition has disappeared and I can't get it back. I figure I have lost those files, but what is really annoying is the space that old partition took up has not freed up. My 3TB fusion drive is only letting me use 120GB of the space (the size of the new primary partition).
So I guess I have two questions:
1 - Is there a way to find and get the old partition back mounting again? The drives that list with a 'diskutil list; echo; diskutil cs list' command are attached, but do not appear to contain the old partition that I am after (I've tried manually mounting them via the terminal to check).
2 - If recovering that old partition is not possible, how do I go about freeing up the space it occupied?
System details:
OS X Yosemite v10.10.2
Mac (27-inch, Late 2012)
Processor: 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Any assistance on this one would be greatly appreciated - I can't restore all my files from backups as I am running low on HDD space.
Cheers,
Nick

Hi Eric,
See attached screen shot - is that what you are after?
As you can see I don't have access to the rest of the 3TB fusion drive. I'm thinking I may have to do a clean OS install so I have prepared a Yosemite USB install key ready to go.
Unless you guys can suggest something that is.
Thanks in advance for your help,

Mac OS X Lion unable to install after internet restore fails to verify

I am in middle of the restore process.
I have deleted the partition as adviced by apple support. But when on step to install Mac OS X Lion (using internet restore), it asks for apple ID for verification.
On providing the correct credentials too it fails stating that "This apple ID has not purchased Lion"
I am hereby attaching images from my appstore showing the receipt of the product being bought. See the thrid entry from last (OS X Mountain Lion) .
Kindly advice as why is it failing to verify ?

After mutiple retries and diffculties I have reinstalled Snow Lepord on the Mac.
But after sucessful reinstallation the problem still exists. Once the installation was over it asked to reboot.
But the behaviour remains the same.
I dont see anymore the crsip light grey screen at startup, its always the interlaced blurry greenish grey screen.
Then it gets stuck on the plain light grey screen , later which turns to blue screen.
So to complete the intial setup ; I had to reboot in safe mode. completed the initial setup and configuration ; including creation of user AC ,etc.
I have tried safe boot;but with no fix . In one instance when I tried to reboot in safe mode it stopped after trying to start in GUI mode with curson linking on a black screen ; as if waiting for me to type some command.
I tried all commands such as exit , reboot , with no luc.
Hard booted .. tried in single user mode ...
again display was never clear and on a flourosent green interlaced screen.. entered the single user mode.
tried /sbin/fsck -fy ; twice till I got message “The volume XZY appears to be OK”
Still the problem existed.
Then as a last hope tried PRAM reset combination and looks like I got the clear crisp grey screen .. hence took the fingers from combination.
Though the mac started as of now .. I feel the problem is there .. and waiting to strike back again. Kindly let me know if my analysis are not correct. What should I do as next step ?

Shared Object skip intro after first visit

Hopefully you guys can see something i am missing. I want to skip the intro of the flash movie after the first visit, so the user doesn't have to see the intro to get to the main site.
I have the code below on frame 1, an intro flv on frame 2 and the main site on frame 3. Code seems perfect and straight forward, why is it not working for me. I had a stop(); on frame 2 and 3 but I removed them to see if that would fix it, but no luck.
_so = SharedObject.getLocal("skipIntro");
_introcheck = 0;
if (_so.data.introcheck != _introcheck) {
_so.data.introcheck = 0;
_so.flush();
//Intro has not been played
gotoAndStop(2)
} else {
//Intro has been played
gotoAndStop(3)

you didn't try the code if you failed to execute:
_so.data.introcheck=1;
if you don't care whether users see your intro once, use:
_so = SharedObject.getLocal("skipIntro");
_introcheck = 1;
if (_so.data.introcheck != _introcheck) {
_so.data.introcheck = 1;
_so.flush();
//Intro has not been played
gotoAndStop(2)
} else {
//Intro has been played
gotoAndStop(3)
