While using my phone it shut off and asked me to activate it. I've had it for almost a year now so this is strange. I've tried calling but as usual, the line is busy and there is an extended wait time. Any other ideas?

This is ridiculous I've had my iPhone 5 for almost a year now, and just today while I'm scrolling through Instagram, my phone decides to restart..I thought okay, maybe it has something to do with iOS 7. But of course it didn't, and when the phone awakened it showed my regular background. In the middle of the screen was a notification that said "Activiation required" and I thought "Wow, that's weird." So, I swiped, unlocked my device and it brought me to a screen asking me to connect to wi-fi, so I did. then, the nest screen showed me a thing that said "This iPhone is currently linked with d******@yahoo.com. Sign in with the Apple ID that was used to set up this iPhone." Now, that e-mail is the same one I used to activate and set my iPhone up with so I'm at a loss here. I tried calling and calling Apple but the phones are backed up as usual.

And it brings me to a screen that keeps saying try again later becuase the activation server is temporarily unavialable? I don't get this.

BB line speed is now half the speed since moving t...

I would like to know why the line speed is now 0.77MB when it was more than 1.7MB when I started with BT.
We used to be able to watch films on ipad without problems but now this is not possible unless you want ro watch it minimised which is not acceptable.
I can't understand why BT thinks a line speed of 0.77MB is categorised as "good". This is NOT good.
Please help!

welcome to the BT community forum where customers help customers and only BT employees are the forum mods
in order for the forum members to help please can you post the adsl stats from your router may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or use a-z, if netgear enter 192.168.0.1) and run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems). when first test completes then run diagnostic test and post the results .
are you connected directly via a filter to the NTE5 master or test socket or to somewhere else? Is the master the only phone socket in your home?
Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal
Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem

Chargeback to Line-of-Business

Please suggest another forum if there is one that can help woth my inquiry.
I am not a network professional, but a financial/Biz Analyst. So forgive my ignorance of your domain of expertise (I am still trying to figure out what bandwidth and latency mean).
I am looking for help at a high (concept) level to better understand the network industry's posture on the topic of network chargeback to the line-of-business in an equitable and meaningful way (business terms - $, hours of service etc). I understand (somewhat) at a personal level, being a consumer with a DSL line at home. I pay for access to the internet through an ISP who charges me monthly rent to have a non-stop connection at a specific speed. I am looking for resources on this topic - whitepapers, blogs, websites, products etc.
BTW - I searched for âchargebackâ on the CISCO site but have not come across anything meaningful. Perhaps there is a better term, keyword?

Here's a few links to some whitepapers and info on network/isp/chargeback:

Bigger/Less albums in the line?

Hello, so this might be a stupid question, but is it possible to change how many albums there are in the line? Right now I have about 7 in one line, and the album covers are annoyingly small. I'm pretty positive that the album art has been bigger, and that there had been less albums in the same line but I guess I must have done something stupid and accidentally changed this. Or is this something that changes as the number of albums increase?
Anyway, thanks for all the possible help in advance.

iTunes 11 removed the ability to change the size at which artwork is displayed in Album view (which is a shame). You can still change the size in Artist or Genre view.

In trying to update my iPhone 3Gs from v. 3.13, it apparently downloaded the upgrade, but got stuck during the backup. It backed up for over an hour, and now the green bar in the Backup window is now colorless and is showing no movement. Any suggestions?

I dropped my Iphone 5 which resulted in it shattering and the screen was still on but it was black with only a white line through it so I couldnt access the phone however I switched over to my Droid and now I cannot send or receive messages?

Help?

Then the bottom of the support document states that if you do not have access to the device (which unfortunately because of the screen issue you do not) to contact Apple Care. That is what you need to do.

My business has been using Appleworks forever. I now have a rubbish mac book pro. I am waiting for Mac to update their software to allow my business to use the 'cwk' drawing files developed over 10 years. letterheads, business cards, box labels etc.

Dorothy: I feel your pain!
Here is a post I just assembled for another Appleworks user:
First, read these excellent articles on Appleworks migration:
Appleworks for the modern day, a migration tip by a brody; and
Abandoning Appleworks by Roger Wilmut.
If you need to run Appleworks 6 to export some data (for example a database, which cannot be opened by any other program):
a) If your Mac will still boot into Snow Leopard, partition your hard drive (or add an external hard drive) and install Snow Leopard (and the optional Rosetta) into it and use the "dual-boot" method to boot into Snow Leopard and run Appleworks 6; or
b) Install Snow Leopard Server into Parallels and run Appleworks 6 concurrently with Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks:

It's now over 6 weeks since I made the mistake of updating my iPad and I am furious and frustrated at the lack of a solution to the problem with ios 5 audio app missing lyrics

It’s now over 6 weeks since I made the mistake of updating my iPad and I am furious and frustrated at the lack of a solution to the problem with ios 5.
I recently updated to ios 5.1 but nothing has been done to rectify the audio app problems ie lyrics no longer shown,
I am extremely disappointed and angrywith those responsible for the iOS 5 update, in regard to the way it hasaffected the music app in my iPad.
I also own an iPhone 4, am an avid Apple fan, and up until now have beenextremely pleased with the devices, and have sung their praises to friends andassociates.
I am a professional musician, and purchased an iPad primarily to use with theperformance of my music.
The changes made to the music app affected my performances over the weekendextremely adversely – limiting my repertoire and causing confusion and delays.
I have spent many hours talking withApple helpline assistants (who, incidentally have been very good and have triedto help), and I have also spent a lot of time on this letter.
I greatly regret updating to iOS 5.
There are two major problems with the music app.
1. Lyrics no longer displayed
2. Layout, and appearance and consequently performance have seriouslyregressed.
I have a repertoire of around 500 song backing tracks, organised into about 20playlists, half of which featured lyrics / chords that I have spent monthsrecently entering into iTunes so that they could be used on my iPad.
These were working fine up until the update - now they are gone.
Previously, the app featured large icons for playlist, artists, songs etc. atbottom of page: Now there are small, grey, indistinct barely legible buttons.
Previously, when playlist icon was selected - all the playlists were listedclearly in order on the left hand side in black on white (as in iTunes).
Now they are scattered across the whole page in large squares (displayingnothing if there is no album art).
The identifying wording below eachsquare is now small, grey, indistinct & barely legible.
Previously, when a playlist was selected - the songs were displayed in adescending list in black & white: now they appear as small, grey indistinct & barely legible.
Previously, when a song was selected - it appeared filling the page, and withaudio controls clearly positioned at top of screen. One tap would bring uplyrics.
Now audio controls appear at top once again small, grey, indistinct &barely legible.
A small square representsalbum art which if tapped fills page. A further tap fails to bring up lyrics.

Lyrics aren't supported in the Music app on iOS 5 on the iPad. These are user-to-user forums, they are not monitored by Apple (there are too many forums/threads/messages for that to happen). If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

I updated my computer to the new software and now the iPhoto has a circle with a line through it. When I try to update, it pops up to say "These apps cannot be accepted by your apple id". Then will say "update unavailable with this apple id" how do i fix

I updated my computer to the new software and now the iPhoto has a circle with a line through it. When I first try to open it the pop us says: "You can't use this version of the application "iPhoto" with this version of OS X. Version: 9.2.1" When I try to update, it pops up to say "These apps cannot be accepted by your apple id - These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID and they will be available in that Apple ID's purchases list. If you don't have access to that Apple ID and want to receive future updates, you will need to purchase the application". I checked and there is nothing under the "purchases" in my App store. Then will say "update unavailable with this apple id - This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or canceled." Then the third pop up says "We could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again". Just want to know how do to fix.

After I upgraded to Mavericks I was also having this message when I tried to update. There was a previous post about this problem which offered this simple solution which worked for me:

Got it! Thanx. What I did was go to my account, check that they had my new ID and Password which they did, then hit reset button. All fixed.

Data Migration from 11i to R12 Global - Open POs,lines, receipts & on hand upload, Is it possible to do the onhand qty upload with over riding of all receipts which uploaded against Open PO lines?

Hi Friends,
We are in a phase of data migration from 11i to R12
I was discussed with client & they wants extraction of all open POs which was generated after 01 Jan 2014 to till date in 11i.
Condition for open POs is PO qty-received qty=>0
critical Example for open PO is :PO no: 10 has 4 lines, 3lines full qty has been received & for 1 line partial qty(say 50 out of 100) received.
in this case he wants in R12 uploading as PO no:10 should entered as open PO with all 4lines & 3 lines complete receipt should be done, for 4th line partial qty i.e 50 should be received.
the question is if we upload on hand qty first, then open POs & receipts, it will increase the onhand qty in new system(mismatch of on hand qty's 11i to R12)
Is it possible to do the onhand qty upload with over riding of all receipts which uploaded against Open PO lines.
Or Please advice best solution.
Thanks & Regards
Giri
