Switched to Moto X - data from 1GB to 8GB! What am I doing wrong?!

I used to always use 1GB - then I got this new phone and I am needing 8GB. No one seems to be able to help. The only thing I can see is that in my corporate exchange email, I can see all of our email signatures, which were available as attachments on my previous DROID. I don't know how to keep them from being downloaded and I'm pretty sure this is responsible for the huge increase in data usage which conveniently started when I bought my new phone.

My husband and I switched over to Moto X in December and our data went from 4 GB a month with my Palm (used it as mobile hotspot mainly) and now we are at 10 GB a month! So there is something wrong with data collecting. We have not changed anything with our usage, as a matter of fact, I am using it less because I keep racking up data usage! I have also noticed alot of other posts stating similar issues. So how can we fix this?? I cannot keep paying close to $200 a month for doing less than I did before. At this rate, it would be cheaper for me to buy out of my contract and go to another carrier.
Please help with this. We have been with Verizon for a very long time and don't want to switch.
Thank you so much!

I've encountered this error myself upon occasion. If I remember correctly, it was a permissions/ownership issue with the some of the files I was copying.

My preferences are set to 'show informational overlay' but when I scroll through events I do not see the date as I'm supposed to. I only see the date underneath the event. What am i doing wrong?

I so not see the date as I scroll through my events and I have my preferences set to 'show informational overlay'. They only date I see is below the event. What am I doing wrong?

Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

On MacBook 10.6, in iTunes 10.3.1, music downloaded from CD, copied from Recently Added, pasted into named New Playlist Folder, is displayed there but can then disappear from this folder. What am I doing wrong?

Hi, Mylenium,
Thanks for your prompt reply, I'm afraid it hasn't helped. I don't see anything wrong in my device manager.
I have also gone and updated every driver, especially the motherboard chipset and the Sata Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver.
Unfortunately, this hasn't made any difference.
Any other suggestions?
Many thanks in advance!

I'm trying to hookup my new AirPort Extreme with my net gear 7550 router/modem from Frontier. I'm not getting a wifi signal from the airport. What am I doing wrong?

What am I doing wrong?

I'm trying to use AirPort Untility to configure the old APExtreme to extend the network, but it won't let me.
"Extend" is only used if the two AirPort Extremes are connecting using wireless only.
"Create" is the correct setting to use since the AirPort Exremes are connecting using Ethernet.
Configure the second AirPort Extreme to create a wireless network using the exact same wireless network name, same security setttings and same wireless password as the "main" AirPort Extreme and make sure that you are choosing the Bridge Mode option for the second AirPort Extreme before clicking Update to save the settings.
When you do this, everything will act like one big wireless network and computers will automatically pick up a signal from the AirPort with the strongest signal based on their location.
This Apple document more details on this....which is called a Roaming Network.

When I try to sync photos, I followed all the steps, picked one folder. When I hit "apply" I get this error message: Are you sure you want to remove 30 apps from iPad. This will delete these apps and their data from the iPad. What have I done wrong

When I try to sync photos or music, I followed all the steps, picked onle folder, not the whole library. When I hit "apply" I got this message:
Are you sure you want to remove 30 apps from iPad. This will delete these apps and their data from the iPad" What can I change to just download the photos and not interfere with the apps?
(By the way, the memory is not even one quarter full)
Thanks for your help - Pat

I have the same problem. I updated my mac to 10.5, which then had me update apps like itunes, etc. then it wanted me to sync my purchased music to my ipad before i updated the ipad...which worked ok. then when i was syncing the photos i got the same message when i hit "apply" asking are you sure you want to delete the 12 apps from the ipad - clicked "no" and brought me back to the original screen. Got the same message when trying to move them from the hard drive to the ipad. WHat is going on and how do I correct this? Thanks

Connecting from Oracle to Access, what am I doing wrong??

Hi,
I'm tying to establish a connection from an Oracle 8.1.7.0.0. Database to an MS Access database,. I'm following the exact steps as described in the Oracle documentation, but still I can't get a connection.
I have the folowing environment:
Here's what i did. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT I'M MISSING?? (i already checked wheter the right Oracle software for odbc support has been installed)
* Created a system DSN (called farmabc) for the concerning .mdb file using ODBC 'Data Source Administrator'
* Created a file called initfarmabc.ora file in the ORACLE_HOME/hs/admin directory. This file contains the following: HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = farmabc
* added the folowing statement to the listener.ora file (under SID_LIST_LISTENER):
(SID_DESC=
(SID_NAME=farmabc)
(ORACLE_HOME=D:\oracle817)
(PROGRAM=hsodbc)
* Added the folowing entry to the tnsnames.ora file:
farmabc= (DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)
(HOST=<hostname>) --cannot reveal hostname
(PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID=farmabc))
(HS = OK))
* Restarted the listener
* create database link test using 'farmabc' (in SQL*plus)
* when I ty to select data from a table within the Access database I get the folowing error:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name
Setting tracing on in the initfarmabc.ora file does not generate any logging!!
Does anyone know what's the problem here?????
Thanx in advance

hi
I suggest u simple method to resolve your TNS error.
gotto access db
select any db
click 'file'
right click 'get external data'
click 'link tables'
select files of types='odbc'
noe click 'machine data source'
click 'new'
select 'user data source' & click 'next'
use scroll & select 'Oracle in Oracle page' & click 'next' & 'finish'
now
In data source name= 'give any name'
description='give any name'
TNS service name = select globaldb after clicking the combo box
user id ='type user name'
after doing all these now click the 'Test connection' , if it succeeds,yes u have overome from the TNS error.
You can choose the same globaldb for the TNS service name.

I'm not particularly familiar with Heterogenous Services, but there is a Heterogenous Services/ Generic Connectivity forum here on OTN. The folks over there are much more likely to have some helpful information for you.

On my i tunes page on my laptop, I don't see a tab for Photos in the drop down list in my library, so I can't download photos from my laptop. What am I doing wrong?

On my drop down list in my library in i Tunes, I don't see a Photo tab. How do I find that so I can download photos from my hard drive?

No, not on the File menu. Click on the Device that shows up when connected:
Either:
If you do not use the Sidebar, when the iPod is connected to iTunes, you should see this icon appear to the left of the iTunes Store button:
Click on the ringed icon (but not on the "eject" part of it!).
Or
If you use the Sidebar, you will see the Device appear, as shown below:
Click on it.
Once you have clicked on the Device, you should see this (Summary) pane, with the word Summary darkened:
Click on Photos (as ringed above)...
Now you are on the Photos pane (notice Photos is now darkened), where there is a drop-down menu. It's that box that says "My Pictures", where you will find "Choose Folder". That option allows you to choose (as I did) "My Pictures".
Notice in the last screenshot that a message at the very top of the image states that the "iPod Sync is complete". Choosing the folder after the Sync has completed (or passed the "sync photos" section) simply means that it requires another Sync for that change to take effect.
That's it.
Now, whatever pictures you place in the chosen folder will be added to your iPod at the following Sync. Likewise, any pictures you remove from that folder will be removed from the iPod at the following Sync.
You only need to look on the Photos pane if you wish to change the folder option.

Yes, there are VIs for acquiring data from Sound cards. And examples too. If you don't have LabVIEW yet, do a search on NI's site for example VIs.

Itunes was unable to load provider data from sync services. What is this?

When I sync my iphone 3G with itunes, I get message as follows.
itunes was unable to load provider data from sync services.
What is this?

I had nearly the same problem. I am also a user of UltraEdit from IDM Computer Solutions. Are you? My problem was fixed by adjusting to remove a conflict between the two. (both use same-named DLL but different versions.) If this sounds like your issue, post here and I'll reply with more detail.
