Talking to a real live person possible?

So I'm having trouble starting up my Time Machine, and nothing on here addresses my issue. Is there an actual way to talk to someone live at Apple without having to fork over more money? I cant seem to get the online thing to get me to talk to someone, and every other venue I've tried leads me to believe i have to pay to get actual help.... which seems absolutely ridiculous considering this thing is 500 bucks.

Or why not book a slot at the genius bar at an Apple store if you are within a reasonable distance. My local one was pretty helpful when I had a problem recently

Good luck.

Real Live person?

I have several questions but my main one is this:
I purchased CS5 several years ago for my MacBook Pro and iMac. My MacBook Pro has been replaced with a new one (it was 4 years old). Am I able to use the CS5 still? I have the original packaging and serial numbers, just want to know if I can transfer the creative suite from my old computer to my new.
I would LOVE to talk with a real live person about this and several other questions....is forum my only option?

The forum is likely your only hope for getting real live people (yes, we are real and live) to talk to you though you can always try chat or telephone. YOur product is likely to be hailed as no longer being supported by those resources though.
You can install the software on the new machine and use your serial number to activate it. You are allowed to have two activated installations, so if you like you can retain the original machine as a backup. If not, then you can just open one of the applications and choose Help -> Deactivate to free up the activation for other use sometime. Do not try to transfer from one machine to the other, it will not work - you need to install.

Need help contacting a real live PERSON at Apple

I have a general technical issue that I badly need to have addressed; it's not anything to do with any specific device, which is where I'm running into trouble. It's an ongoing problem, and there should be a generic customer support area that can take my call if it's not for a device. I don't want to call the Apple store and see if they can redirect me unless that is truly the only option.
It's an issue with MacBook/Pro power cords, and has been a problem over the five years I've had these various laptops. At least five different cords have been involved, and I'm about to have two more unusable ones on my hands, with two laptops in the house that need to be powered. If I have to buy new cords, then so be it, but I would really like to talk to Apple first and see if they can address WHY these cords keep failing in different ways.

Neither one of you seems to be understanding the problem here, so I drew you a diagram.
I actually understand it very well.
This is an ONGOING PROBLEM. I don't know how much clearer I can make this. Nothing I own from Apple is still under warranty,
You don't understand. There is a one year hardware warranty. You state you have a 2011 MBP. We are still in 2011. That means your MBP is still under warranty. I don't know how much clearer I can make that, ya know?
and I refuse to pay the outrageous $50 fee for a single session of help
We agree.
when I have been having this problem under three different devices and at LEAST five different cords (I may have miscounted and forgotten one or something).
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
What if one of the power cords that was actually still working for me was from the Macbook (which is no longer in my possession)? What would you reccommend I do then? There's no serial number to refer to, it would just be an isolated piece of hardware.
Contact Apple if it's still under warranty, or go in to an Apple Store or AASP.
This is how I would like my issue to be handled,
There are a whole lot of things in this world I'd like to be handled differently, but so far I have not found that hotline which allows me to simply call and change those things. (The clicking heels things hasn't been working so well either. )
as if there were no device attached to it. I can say this as many times as you want, it's not going to change.
Ummm, ok.
I would simply resolve this by going to my closest Apple store, but my closest Apple store is two hours away, so how about no.
Well, at least consider it next time you're in the area, and also consider an AASP.
One other thing I wonder if you realize. We are just Apple users (somewhat) like you. We are not Apple. We are trying to help you. OK?

QT still stuttering - How to talk with a real person at Apple about it

Does anyone know how I can get a hold of someone at Apple ( like a real person to talk to )? I’m a PC guy and have never had this much trouble figuring out anything before. All I wanted to do was d’load a song - legally. I got ITUNES>made an account> looked up a song> and it played like crap ( stuttering ), So, I bought the song thinking I could put it on another machine and play it ( nope, not authorized ) So, I’m stuck with a .99 cent piece of crap. The amazing thing is THIS HAPPENED 6 MONTHS AGO. I have listen to hundreds of folks here grope around in the dark, some having success some not, without a peep from Apple. Is this how they operate? If it is, I’m sure not seeing why they have a such rapid fan base.
Plan and simple – I need to talk to a live person NOW. I have been through the boards at nausea have tried everything posted ( and I do mean everything, more then once too ) and now I plan to get my .99 cents back because I don’t believe Apple is up to the task of fixing this customers problem.

And the more generic link if you're not in the US:

This page would have been easily found it you'd just clicked the Support tab at the top of any of these pages, and it has all the various ways Apple provides to contact them including support phone numbers.

That's because the Discussions are user-to-user only; Apple does not provide technical support through these forums. If they have something blanket to say, they do it through an article in the KnowledgeBase.
As to your problem; it is just with some tracks, or with any track you import or purchase? If it's just certain tracks from the iTunes Music Store, they may well have arrived corrupted from the record company (the record companies provide the tracks; Apple doesn't handle the compression themselves). In such a case, you need to contact the iTunes Music Store customer support department through the form at the bottom of this web page and explain the problem to them. There is no telephone number; Apple, as is the case with all download music stores I've seen, doesn't find it cost-effective to provide telephone technical support.
If it's all tracks that are affected, then perhaps this KnowledgeBase article will help:
iTunes and QuickTime: Audio does not play or plays incorrectly
I bought the song thinking I could put it on another machine and play it ( nope, not authorized )
So just authorize that second system. All you need is to have it connected to the Internet long enough for it to contact the iTunes Music Store. If the track stutters on that system as well, then the track is almost certainly defective. Contact the iTMS through the link I provided above.

How does a customer talk to a real person?

How does a person talk to a real person at Verizon these days. I have been trying for three days to get help. I am on hold an average of 45 minutes before I hang up feeling frustrated. I can't get a live chat or send an email, so what can a customer do? I am so fed up with Verizon and there bloody contracts are ridiculous. Every little change requires a contract renewal. I am soooo frustrated!!!!

No need to spend time on the line havan! We would love to assist you right here. What's going on? How may we help out?

Why can't I get a live person to talk to or a telephone # to call with the problem?

Both of AOL toolbar and google toolbars have stopped working. The AOL toolbar disappeared. Why can't you talk to a real person? What's the telephone # for Firefox?
I am so frustrated and not going to use Firefox any more.

Sorry, Mozilla doesn't offer telephone support for Firefox. It's this forum or IRC, ''when it is open and staffed''.
Google stopped updating their Google Toolbar for Firefox - it's dead. Yahoo hasn't come up with an update for Firefox 6, AFAIK. Check with Yahoo support for details.

How do I suspend my billing &/or talk to a live person?

I transferred my phone number to Google since I can't get Verizon signal at my new job. Now I cannot disconnect my Verizon account. I was on hold for 15 minutes last night, talked to a rep for 30 minutes, but after being placed on hold for the 4th time was disconnected. His supervisor was also supposed to call me back but never did. When I try to click suspend billing on my account, it won't let me. When I try to alter my device in my account, I can't. I was told the stores couldn't help me as I needed to speak with billing. I've been on hold for over an hour this morning waiting to talk to someone at customer service. I think I need a live person, but have no idea if there is someone actually answering these phones. I have a job (two actually) and can't spend all day on the phone! What do I do?

We would be delighted to assist today grumpe1. In order to resolve this issue we do have a few options. You can reach out to us by dialing *611 from your device, visit your local store http://bit.ly/3SdsA, or utilize an alternative contact method http://bit.ly/yN1P80. Please keep us posted, thanks!

For a communications company why is it so hard to get a phone number to talk to a real person?

Verizon is a communications company: why is it so hard to get a phone number to talk to a real person? Why when I call to set up a payment plan I get an auto response the sets up my payment date with no option to decline? Why hasn't the FCC shut this company down for breech of contract and lying to its customers?

Breach of contract? You are in breach of contract by not paying for services rendered.
Why should you be late paying an invoice and yet expect Verizon to keep your device on? You are breaching the contract.
#PMT from your device gives you an option for payment arrangements. The system more than likely can only extend the due dates by a certain number of days.
*611 or 1-800-922-0204 and ask to speak to financial services and ask them to extend the date.
Verizon would be out of business if everyone just paid them when they please.
Good Luck

Is there a phone number I can call to talk to a live person about help with Lightroom issues ?

Is there a phone number I can call to talk to a live person about help with Lightroom issues ?

well the reason I wanted to talk to someone live because it would take forever to explain everything on here But anyway, here goes. I have an HP Pavilion Notebook with Intel Core i5-323om CPU @2.60 GHz and 8 gb ram 64bit. I am trying to run Lightroom 5.7 on my laptop and having major issues. I use an external hard drive for the storage of my photos. When I try to use Lightroom I run into many issues: Flickering of the screen, freezing up, slow, the loading circle just goes round and round lol. If I go to the washroom or leave the computer for even a minute it freezes up. I have to keep pressing Ctr/alt/delete to bring it back when it flickers. I have to constantly exit out of the program and restart it to be able to edit even just a couple of photos and then it starts acting up again.
I have tried un-installing and re-installing, updating everything on my pc, changing compatibility settings, updating development settings, I even took the laptop into have it looked at and they did all kinds of updates etc...and still couldn't figure out why it wasn't working for me. I have gone through the lists of troubleshooting for LR problems and there just seem to be nothing that works.....I have made new catalogues, moved them, tried using the software on my pc without the EHD, etc etc.......I have tried EVERYTHING...I think.....so I was looking for some answers as to why this is happening....

Hello,
you could use: "Telephone numbers of customer service and technical support Adobe worldwide"
>>> https://www.adobe.com/eeurope/elicensing/licensemanagement/alm/contact.html (I used Europe's link, but that makes no difference.)
and/or
if necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences. I quote from Preran: The chat button is activated as soon as there is an agent available to help.
Good luck!

How do I talk to a live person?

I tried to print a PDF of my auto insurance cards from my online insurance company. The PDF failed to print. A dialogue box said I had not selected the number of pages, but I had selected the number of pages, more than once without success. I have successfully printed other documents. What do I do?

I need to talk to a real person NOW!

I am showing $50 in my account balance, which is my monthly fee, but for some reason it is saying my monthly unlimited plan has expired. I have been trying to get a real person on the phone for over an hour now to no avail. 611, even if I push 0's, eventually says "We're sorry YOU'RE having trouble, goodbye", as does 1-888-294-6804 and 1-800-922-0204. Someone please help! I am furious and in tears! This is my only phone and can't afford to pay by the minute. I shouldn't have to drive to a store, in tears and angry, to talk to a real person. I am VERY disappointed in Verizon Wireless customer service.

Try this it usually works for me Dial the Prepaid Customer Service 1-888-294-6804 when the 1st recorder message starts push # 4 then when the next message starts push # 4 again, when the mext message starts push # 5 this will take you to a human voice. You don't have to lesson to the whole message just click the numbers as soon as the message starts, it saves alot of time. Good Luck.
