This is the second time, Adobe.
"The second time of what, curious bypasser?" you may ask. Well, sit down, kids. I'm about to tell you a pleasant little story.
Once upon a time, I updated Flash. My OS then proceeded to corrupt after a series of blue screens and CHKDSK. Being the dashingly stunning computer wiz that I am, I figured it was a fluke, and reformatted. I still had my files, so what was the harm?
Let me tell you, kids. Let me tell you what the harm was. The harm was when it happened again. I have been working on my computer for over eleven hours. No use, I will still have to reformat. Cheers, Adobe! I will not be installing Flash after I reformat. Ever. Your product has aggravated me for the last time.
I don't know how your product has managed to do this not once, but twice. But I do know that I now hold a very dark grudge against you.
Nice post
However, it is very unlikely that a browser add-on can cause a BSOD. More likely it was the graphics driver (used by Flash Player) that caused a BSOD. Updating the graphics driver may actually have fixed it.

My iPhone 4s is dark, this is the second time. The first time I was able to get it back up and running by plugging it into my PC. However this time it has been plugged in for an hour or more and nothing. There was still at least 70% charge left on it when it went dead. I have pressed the sleep and start button separately and together. It said that I did not have much space left this morning so I deleted Apps and photos but there was still space. Just two days ago it was losing power even though it still 55% charge left so I plugged it in and it seemed to gain power. Any suggestions on the problem?
Sounds like faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take to Apple for quick (minutes) free battery diagnostic testing. If you have Warranty or AppleCare the problem will be covered.

Bug:How can Home sharing be turned off and all items in my library cleared without my intervention? This is the SECOND time this happens since end of March 2013. A permanent solution will be appreciated
See this post.
Assuming AVG is involved there is a new patch which may resolve the issue. Update AVg before attempting to recover the library.

I have songs both purchased online and downloaded from cd's that itunes is unable to locate. What can I do to get them back and make sure it doesn't happen again as this is the second time this has happened?
Great, that's what I was looking for. Thanks for the quick response. I knew that that feature existed in this router, but I couldn't remember what it was called or where to find it.
The funny thing is, I recall distinctly setting up the DHCP reservation initially, but when I went to check it now, the reserved client list was empty. I have no idea how it could have become depopulated, thus opening the door for internal IP address reassignment of the Remote Desktop computer which led to the RDP ports no longer being forwarded to the right internal IP address and thus the failure of the Remote Desktop connectivity. -
Error KB19454, Calendar won't sync. This is the second time this happened, how do I fix it?
This is the second time this has happened with my Tour 9630. While trying to sync with Blackberry Desktop Manager, I am unable to sync calendars. My contacts are able to sync just fine. This happened once before and the only solution that I found to work was restoring my phone to a previous backup. I find this to be a horrible solution and one in which I don't want to replicate. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how to fix this? Desktop Manager: Version 1.0.2 9630 Version: v4.7.1.57 Macbook v1.1 Thanks in advance!
This new to me also, just recently iCal will not sync with BBDM, KB19454. Any help??

This is the second time I cannot send my mail out
I have yahoo mail but use the apple mail at the bottom of my scress. This is the second time this week that it tells me cannot send mail outgoing
server is wrong. I checked the diagnostic doct and all the dots are green. What is going on?Hello Jocko64,
It sounds like you are unable to send email from your Mail account and you have already used the Connection Doctor to help troubleshoot. Based on that, I would next remove the email account:
Open Mail (click it on the Dock or open it from the Applications folder).
From the Mail menu, choose Preferences..., or press Command-, (the Command and comma keys).
Click the "Accounts" icon.
Select the account you wish to remove.
Click the "-" (minus) icon. You will be alerted that "The account's setup information, mailboxes, messages, notes, and to do's will be deleted permanently from your computer."
If you are sure you want to remove the account and email messages from your computer, click "Remove" to complete this process.
From: Configuring Mail for your email account
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1277
Then restart your computer, and re add the account and test the issue again.
Open Mail (click it on the Dock or open it from the Applications folder).
If the "Welcome to Mail" assistant does not appear, choose Add Account from the File menu.
Fill in the Full Name, Email address, and Password fields.
Note: Your email account password will be stored in Keychain to allow you to automatically log in to your email account when you open Mail.
Deselect "Automatically set up account" if it is enabled. Click Continue to proceed.
Choose the proper Account Type.
Give your account a useful description, such as "Anne's Gmail account" or "Juan's Yahoo! email account". It can be called whatever you want.
Enter your Incoming Mail Server, User Name and Password. Click Continue to proceed.
If prompted, enter your Incoming Mail Security settings. Click Continue to proceed.
For Outgoing Mail Server, a useful description such as "Gmail Outgoing Mail Server" or "Yahoo! Outgoing Mail Server".
Enter the Outgoing Mail Server details.
If necessary, select "Use Authentication" and enter your User Name and Password. Click Continue to proceed.
If prompted, enter your Outgoing Mail Security settings. Click Continue to proceed.
Verify your settings in the Account Summary. Check "Take account online". Click "Create" to complete the process.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

I've just updated itunes and it has disappeared from my PC- the previous shortcut won't work and it can't locate on my file search- this is the second time this has happened when updating itunes- APPLE you seem to be going down the tubes slowly but surely..
its not apple going "down the tubes" its that you have windows junk. These opinion best left at apple.com/feedback

can apple fix my ipad2 twice for free this is the second time my ipad2 screen broke, now dont calle me careless my 3 yr old brother begs and cries and it's frustrating, all he wants is thomas and friends so i end up getting forced to give it to him, i didnt know my brother was still playing with the ipad , and i was watching tv, so my dad comes up it was lying in the floor next to my bro, u couldnt believe how i cried that time because second time...... my mom was very very dissapointed , and so am i , so will apple be able to fix my 1pad 2 wifi only16 gb for free again, i barely have enough money to repair, because my mom brought another one. im really sad bc it took alot of sacrifice from my parents to buy me this ipad, i dont think i deserved that : ( plz help , or give me any other options.
If you mean your iPad got stepped on and the screen physically broke, I think it extremely unlikely that Apple will replace it again for free. They weren't obligated to do so the first time, as apparently they did, and almost certainly not going to do so twice.
Sorry, but I think you'll just have to live without your iPad until such time as you can save up enough money to pay for repairs. There are independent iPad repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less than Apple's replacement charge, though I can't say with certainty. Do a web search for "ipad repair".

lock button got stuck or broke.. this is the second time this has happened and my phone is refurbish. do i have to pay the replacement cost?
Warranty on a refurbished unit is 90 days or the remainder of the original phone's warranty, whichever is longer. If you're outside this period, you will again pay the replacement fee.

It wouldn't bother me if this was the first time, but it's not. I don't know if I supplied an emergency email or not, if I did I have no idea what it would be. It might even be my dad's and talking to him about this would be a nightmare. The first time this happened I just sent an email explaining what was going on and then they made it so I didn't need to supply a security question to use my iPhone but now it's making me supply one for my iPod, even though it's older than my phone and I've never had to supply one before on that device. It'd be nice if I could have the security questions emailed to my actual email instead of some other bogus email that I have forgotten about. Sorry this isn't the most polite complaint, but I'm pretty frustrated and would like an answer that doesn't involve call apple. I think I have social anxiety because I'm not all that great talking to strangers, even if it's on the phone.
If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can get a clue to what it is, and potentially use it, by going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and clicking 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have, or don't want to use, your rescue email address (you won't be able to add/change it until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset (which will be by phone as they need to verify your id - we are fellow users here on these forums).
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add/change rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570 -
I close my computer and when I open it to wake it up,it didn't no respond. The screen is black and can turn it off holding the power buttom. Also, I cannot remove the battery beacuse the stupid thing is sealed... help!!! I just bought my Mac and this is the secon time I had problems with it. It already had the motherboard replaced... *****!!!
I need to work on my computer now... and the store is closed, that is why I am using this site to see if someone has a quick solution.
Why in the world Mac makes a computer with a battery that is not easy to pull out or rest???. Should I unscrew the bottom cover and try to remove the battery? Is there a reset button?
I am hating Mac now... I have never has so many problems with a computer and few solutions at hand... it seems that this is a common problem but it has been delete from the forums in the Mac site...

My top button stopped working this is the second time will they replace it for free?
ii got my iphone a year ago in september within the first few months the lock button quit so i sent it away to get fixed and they made me pay 40 then i got it back and i couldnt get service anywhere so they sent it away and fixed it making me pay 198 to have it fixed i have had it for a couple months and the button on top stopped again this is the 3rd time in a year and im sick of it will they send me a new one free of charge becuase i am an unhappy customer ?
wow i dont know who you are getting your phone "fixed" through but its not apple.
Apple does not charge prices like that.
If you got it 1 year ago in september, the hardware warranty has expired by now unless you had your device covered by applecare insurance.
and if it WERE covered by limited hardware warranty, an obvious hardware issue like the power button not working is covered under the warranty UNLESS it was due to accidental damage.
So if you paid 198 dollars, chances are its because you dropped your phone and thats why the button was not working,.
..and even then, the iphone 4 out of warranty/accidental damage replacement fee is 149. not 198. -
so i tried to restart the iPod, 'forget' the wifi name and re join nothing happened. i also did the reset network connection. as i said please give me something i can do via macbook or home since i live no where near a apple store. Last year my iPod shut off and wouldnt work this now is happening. Do i have to restore?? and how can i save everything from deleting....??
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
