This outlook problem hasn't been resolved for over 2 years!!! WHY?

Sorry I am really disappointed right now as it's been over 2 years. No one can really help on this and I deeply regret buying my 650!
My "no time" event created on 650 often show as "all day" events in outlook 2007, even after I mannually changed all of them to "free" in outlook, it will become "all day" events very soon after synchronization.
It drives me mad!!! Please help and I can reward you a sweet date!
Post relates to: Treo 650 (Cingular)

It just shows "busy" events in outlook 2007 which means "ALL DAY" equal to "24 HRS". So all the time slot on that day is occupied, others cannot find an open slot in my schedule.
I mannually changed these events from "busy" to "free" in outlook, but after sync, they often return to "busy" status again!
Please help!!!

Been stuck for over a year, please help me do this

so i have this laptop with 8gb ram and core i7 as well as 2 hdd (no raid).
Now i heard about premiere (cs4) and my laptop is ready to take most of the advantage but the hard drive is the bootleneck.
Basically, all i want is to do few cuts in a video that was filmed by sony hdr-sr11 camcoder in hd 1080 60i settings. Now i heard i need 3 hard drives etc, but at the moment, i only have 2.
So is there anyway i can do simple cuts in premiere without losing any quality and slowdown in fps or is there any other software that can be better? I really don't want to lose any quality or fps with the g73jh-a2 asus laptop i have?
i also have ati 5870 video card

The lowest was 19mb, but was floating arond 30mb. Still that aint good..
I can't afford the partition magic and i heard its not good to partition after installing windows. I am thinking of fresh install, but if there is a workaround, it would save me tons of time as not installing apps etc.
For the setup
1)Can i have the programs in secondary drive? What about just a game or 2?
2)By projects, do you mean the videos that im going to edit?
3)what is scratch?
4) By media, do you mean videos im going to edit?
Lastly, what about a bit of data? Like <50gb.. Pictures documents etc

i did hdtune and was the os drive was 100mb-19mb in the end and the
secondary one was 105-45~mbps
Those figures are disturbing. For any reasonably modern 7200 RPM disk these figures should be around 120 - 60 MB/s. If it goes down to below 20, something is seriously wrong. Now that may be caused by your partitioning or something else, hard to discern from here, but these results are worrisome.
Maybe Partition Magic can help you get rid of all these partitions, otherwise a complete reformat and fresh install of OS & programs is all that is left.
Setup should be something like this:
C: OS & programs & projects
D: Pagefile, scratch and media
It depends a bit on the nature of your projects, your workflow, but in general you set up your disks in such a way that disk accesses are spread over the available disks as much as possible.

My phone just turned off and will not go back on. my top lock button has been broken for over a year. Help!

my phone just turned off and will not go back on. my top lock button has been broken for over a year. Help! I have tried plugging it into wall unit and computer but my home button just doesnt do anything!

It seems that year long delay from having your lock button repaired has finally caught up to you. Sounds like you have some damage to your phone that requires repair/replacement. Take it to a Apple store or contact Apple Tech Support.

I am getting the error message "could not copy to requested location" to a drive i have been using for over a year... when I do the same thing to another drive - it works just fine. why?

i am getting the error message "could not copy to requested location" to a drive i have been using for over a year... when I do the same thing to another drive - it works just fine. why?

Possibly the drive is full
Possibly the permissions are not set to WRITE permission
Possibly there has been a "user mistake" and you think you are copying to a drive you have been using for over a year but something has accidentally changed and you're copying to a different location

At first I was using my father's icloud account in my iPad and now I use mine. I still have the games that I have been playing for over a year like that itself but when I clicked the upgrade button they r asking for my father's iCloud pass.how 2 upda

i am using an iPad mini and I had been using my father's iCloud account to purchase apps in app store and now I changed the iCloud account to mine. But the apps still remain purchased in my father's account and not in mine. Now I have to update my apps to use them(I have been using it for over a year) when I click update button they r asking for the passcode of my father's account. So I can't update it. And I also need to update it. What can I do! How can I purchase the same game with the same progress in my iCloud account.

Yes, if you repurchase it you may lose your progress. The exception would be a game that stored all your progress on a server under your ID
If you want to retain your progress you have two choices:
1. Don't apply the update.
2. Use your fathers account password to update the game.

This bug has been around for over a year: SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation

Hi,
The bug of 'SecurityError: Error #2123: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: file:///xxx/xxx.swf cannot access rtmfp://fms4.acrobat.com/cocomo/na2-sdk-xxx/xxx. No policy files granted access.' was first reported in lccs forum over a year ago:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2803074
But the bug is still around. The bug can be generated by calling BitmapData.draw() on a flash.media.Video object which is attached to a p2p stream. It looks like the solution is to have the publisher to call:
send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true)
on the NetStream object _before_ the subscriber calls NetStream.play(), in order to give the permission to subscribers for audio and video streams.
In lccs library, the above permission authorisation happens in WebcamPublisher:
protected function onNetStatus(p_evt:NetStatusEvent):void
if (p_evt.info.code=="NetStream.Connect.Success") {
setTimeout(sendSnapShotPermission, 500);
_stream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true);
protected function sendSnapShotPermission():void
_stream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true);
but it doesn't help the problem. In fact, it is not clear to me when this 'snap shot permission' is sent to the subscriber.
One more note: This is not a critisism for the lccs development quality, but rather a question on how ready lccs is for production use. After encountering this bug, I had to go through the lccs code (the open source parts), and found out that the library is not really written, well, carefully, and it is full of temporary quick-n-dirty fixes.
For instance in the above example, sendSnapShotPermission() is called after 500 milliseconds, probably to allow something to happen before calling the method, but how can you be sure that it will happen in 500 milliseconds? Probably,an event listener should have been used. Immediately in the next line, we see:
_stream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true);
which is a duplicate of sendSnapShotPermission(). many examples like this can be found throughout the library.

Hi Nigel,
Two questions:
1. When the publisher sends the access permission to the subcriber by:
netStream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true)
, on the subscriber side, what event or function can handle the guaranteed receipt of the access permission? Currently it is possible to draw the incoming stream video upon receiving NetStream.Play.Star and waiting for 5 seconds or so:
public class MyWebcamSubscriber extends WebcamSubscriber {
override protected function layoutCameraStreams():void
// trying the event listener seems to work here.
_streamManager.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, onNetStatus);
override protected function onNetStatus(e:NetStatusEvent):void
super.onNetStatus(e);
case "NetStream.Play.Start":
setTimeout(function():void {
// draw the video from the incoming stream here.
}, 5000);
The questions is, which event can let the subscriber know that it has the access permission to the video stream?
2. In WebcamPublisher, why is that the access permission is sent 3 times?
a. Once on receiving NetStream.Connect.Success with 0.5 second delay, as in below.
b. Once immediately upon receiving NetStream.Connect.Success, as in below.
protected function onNetStatus(p_evt:NetStatusEvent):void
if (p_evt.info.code=="NetStream.Connect.Success") {
setTimeout(sendSnapShotPermission, 500);
_stream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true);
protected function sendSnapShotPermission():void
_stream.send("|RtmpSampleAccess", true, true);
c. Once in onConnectionTypeChange() with 2 seconds delay:
protected function onConnectionTypeChange(p_evt:StreamEvent):void
if ( _streamManager.isP2P) {
_stream= new NetStream(_connectSession.sessionInternals.session_internal::connection as NetConnection,NetStream.DIRECT_CONNECTIONS);
setTimeout(sendSnapShotPermission, 2000);

Hey Everybody,
I've been reading several threads and came across this one;
http://community.bt.com/t5/BT-Infinity/FTTC-Exchange-and-Cabinet-BT-Wholesale/td-p/181321
Unfortunately it appears that they've pulled this from public view so I can't access.
Using the "Find Sold House Prices" tool on Rightmove to obtain House Numbers to Postcodes, i've been able to determine on the BT Infinity checker that some houses in my town can get Infinity.

I logged a call through the normal BT website before somebody contacted me and started talking about Cabinets, I had no idea what a cabinet was and thought he was just trying to fob me off with technical gumf.
Since i've been reading, I want to try and determine where my Cabinet it, and when its likely to be "Fibre Enabled"
Can somebody send me a copy of the list

It looks like I have 2 cabinets for my postcode.
All I want it Infinity...... can sombody advise when I am likely to get it or how I can quicken the process up ?
Thanks,
Scott

There is no way you can speed up the process as it is Openreach that are responsible for the roll out of fibre
BT retail like any other ISP only has the details of theactive cabinets
The cabinets are the green boxes you see on many streets and you may often see Openreach engineers working on the fibre cabinet is placed close by the existing cabinet
Unfortunatly not every cabinet is upgraded for fibre first time around and additional phases of new cabinets are constantly being added to the existing cabinets
All you can do is wait until you see a new cabinet being installed in your area and keep using the infinity checker on the BT.com web site

How can i manage old data on my file server that as not been used for over 2 years?

I have 4 file servers and more then 50% of the data is older then 2 years
I would like to move that data to another san, slower but i would like the user to have access by shortcut on there share
Would make it faster to backup because the drive would be 50% less big and would not affect users because they would see the same thing in there share it would just be a little lomnger to open file upon need.
Thanks

All of my downloaded Apps I have been using for over a year, none will open, they only flash when the icon is touched.

All of my downloaded apps will not open, how do I correct this? The same thing happened a few days ago, but when I received an alert from the sport app, all the games opened up and I could use them. This morning they are all closed again. Everything else that's on the ipod is working fine.

- Reset your iPod, nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Make sure all the apps are up to date.
- Download/install a new app
- Restore the iPod from backup
- Restore the iPOd to factory defaults/new iPod

I can't power up my pavilion dv6-3210. It has been working for over a year.

I can't get any power signal. No lights when plugged in. I tried to remove the battery and still no luck. Just dead. It was working last night fine but a few days ago had the same problem and removing the battery then powering up worked. Now nothing.
It is out of warranty so I need to know if HP does repair.Couldn't find anything on their site.

It's back working. I'm thinking that maybe because it was plugged in while sitting on the carpet it might have engaged the heat sensor. Anyway I tried it again after a few hours without plugging it in and it fired up.

Failure to fix my cable for over a year and a half! HELP!

Failure to fix my cable for over a year and a half! HELP!
I regretfully have to inform you that I might have to discontinue using Comcast, for the following reasons if I cannot et you to resolve these issues. It should be noted that this is something that I do not want to have to do. However, basically I have no choice.
1. Repeated and Constant Internet Issues and Poor TV Quality for over a year.
2. A substandard quality of service, just even compared to my next door neighbors who has Comcast. The service has issues daily. Not a week has gone bye without an issue either small or large.
3. Constant and repeated interrupt of service and an overall low quality of product. Time Outs, High Ping rates into the 100s and 200s, Cable Light Off, Poor Quality of TV picture, fuzzy, Digital Blocking even on non-digital channels with or without box, Occasional CB Radio chatter over interment connection <-(the odd one).
4. The constant run around from the employee’s at Comcast and Service Department who either are unable to fix my problem, or unwilling to fix my problem, or have no one qualified to fix the problem. The amount of service calls and tech support personal I have had come to my house and had to call is so numerous I cannot even recall the amount.
5. Paying full price for a substandard quality and product while others around me do not have too. Including my next door neighbor which does not seem to have an issue.
The Story-
I purchased this house over a year and a half ago. Note; I did think it was odd that the pervious owner of this house had Comcast TV, but a DSL internet connection (I know now why he had to do that). In a brief conversation with him recently when he was visiting our next door neighbors he told me of how he had the same issues and had to switch to DSL.
I am, and always have been an avid Cable user and in particular for the Internet as the Broadband just makes it so much more enjoyable. I used Time Warner Cable for over 7-years prior to “having to” use Comcast with great service and good connection and a highly enjoyable time over the internet playing games and surfing the web. I have to use the words :“having too”, as you are the only Broad Band Internet connection in my area currently (I moved to the Burbs, not the Boonies) so I still don’t understand why my choices are limited. Must be nice to have a Monopoly though. : ), and I am starting to think this maybe part of my problems and why nothing is being done.
In any case, my internet use is for entertainment only. Surfing the Web, playing video games, Online Classes, and whatnot. Nothing life treating, or a must have service and basically, fun for the family, not for frustration. I like to use Cable as I never have to worry about the line cutting out or losing connection. This used to be the case, but with Comcast I do have to worry about this, and it happens often. Simply put: it is NOT always ON as advertised, at least for me.
The Issues-
From day one, I have had nothing but repeated and constant issues with my internet service. I don’t even think I had Comcast a week before I had to make my fist service call. See I was used to another Cable service and silly me expected my cable to work. From there it was all downhill. I have had so many service calls its actually outlandish and would be funny if it was someone else. Its like a TV sitcom actually.
Each and every service call goes the same way. Tech comes out, stands around, recognizes the problem and leaves. No fixes mind you, and the reasons are below.
Recent History-
With the internet on the fritz again and only seeming to get worse I decided to call and have someone come out and check it. A preemptive strike on my part in other words, before it totally blew out like it does and taking days for it to come back on. I have been dealing with this for over a year getting kind of frustrated with the whole process.
I talk to the service department and they also see the issue (sporadic interrupt of service and poor quality). With so many problems and the list ever growing most likely on my report the service guy said he would send a Line Tech out to check my problem on Monday (the ninth).
I think to myself finally some progress and it only took a year, a real Line Tech my issue is sure to be solved.
Unfortunately, the apparent Line Tech does and did the same as every other tech sent to the house. Set around for 20 or so minutes futzing around with the computer. Notes the issue of single loss and poor TV quality makes some notes and says sign here. *take note of paragraph below about Line Tech.
Around Thursday, I call up the service department basically asking if and when my service problems will be fixed. With little shock and surprise I was told that nothing is scheduled the last service call the Line Tech was not really a Line Tech and I should have been called back and or at least informed of that a Line Tech was not scheduled to be sent. This is normal by the way.
The Phone Tech checked my service and found that an issue did exist and proceeded to tell my that he would advise his supervisor of the issue. He also stated that if someone had not called me by 6:00PM this coming Saturday, that I could call and he would expedite matters.
Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock
Saturday at 6:20PM I call up the service department, punch in my phone number and low and behold I’m sent immediately to the Clams Department instead of the Service Department LOL.
After explaining the issue to the Clams Department (my thinking is at this point is; why pay for it if its not working and they wont fix it) I am transferred to the Service Department after a brief expiation of the issue. I guess I am a little late with my bill, but can you blame me?
The Run Around-
Talking to a new service persona again which is the same with ever tech sent to the house (Never the same one twice). Apparently nothing is on my report about this call I made earlier, or he does not note it.
The new service tech while helpful and curious taking the brunt of my frustrations at this point goes through the same procedures that I have been through so many times now I know them by hart. I acknowledge the fact ahead of time to myself that my tone although frustrated is nothing personal, and the service tech should not take it personally. Its just that at this point I’m beyond frustrated. I try to be as understanding and curious as I can while he tries to help me.
I explain the repeated problems and what is going on. In this instants the service tech mentions something about some service package (come kind of other signal maybe being sent to the modem).
At the time my internet is somewhat working with only a few time outs and just above normal pings so I cant really blame him for not seeing an issue. I’m mainly calling just to find out why I didn’t receive a phone call, or get another appointment to have this checked into.
My service was cutting out right before I called, which is why I called. The service tech just happened to check my service while it was working for 20 or so minutes. : P
Although, I am sure the Tech knew what he was doing and seemed very knowledgeable and probably thought he had resolved an issue that has been plaguing me for over a year now I knew nothing had changed. (this has happened before by the way same exact procedure in fact, and must be part of the training).
I’m trying to hold my volume down and not get too upset. Its not the techs fault and probably does not know I have gone through this procedure before. I want to try to explain this but he is busy trying to work his magic. I remain calm, but I even made the statement that I would probably be calling him back in 15-minutes. I try to end the conversation and phone call as politely as I can. Its not his fault, his just trying to do a job.
Anthony
Case Number: 053300005
Well not even five minutes later you will never guess what………… Pings start dropping and the internet is cutting out on me.
The Problem-
The problem has been defined as a Line Issue, and an On and Off interrupt of service. At this point even the TV is being affected. From the first time I called (like over a year ago) the issue is defined to me as an On OFF issue.
The Problem trying to get this fix-
You apparently have no Line Techs.
The Pole near my house is apparently a Forbidden Area that no one must go near. LOL
You cannot get these people to go near it apparently. They only classify the problem and go away never to be seen nor heard from again.
Now honestly I can understand with employee issues seeing this happening from time to time, but not for over a year and with service calls up in the tens and twenties…..
Worst of All-
I think the worst part of all of this is I have become so used to the poor and substandard quality of service. So used to it that I only call or complain when its totally out or is visually not working correctly and can be tested. I don’t call and complain because its not working as Advertised, because in fact it really never did or does.
I also, don’t call a lot of the times because of dealing with the service department. If its working at that moment they cannot define the problems. Not really anyone’s fault as it looks like its working even if the pings are in the 200 range or currently no time outs are accruing. I mean at least its working, and they say Speed is not Guaranteed anyway.
The Forgotten and Unanswered Questions-
I don’t know about the rest of you but sometimes while talking to people I forget to ask questions or the question does not come to mind until the conversation is over with. In any case, the Phone Service Tech said that what he did should have been done along time ago.
However, if my cable was somehow magically fixed by what he did I still have these questions;
1.What happened to my Service Call and why did no one call my by 6:00PM today?
-I waited around for the call actually, and I really would like to get this issue resolved.
2. Why is my TV picture still bad?
3. Although my internet seemed to be working today and only cut out once for a brief period of time why did the supposed fix of the Phone Tech double and even triple my pings, and still occasionally cuts out?
This is usually when I can tell its going to start acting up as the interrupts become more frequent and growing in intensity and length. I always have them anyway I am used to it.
However, on the other hand, I am already seeing time outs and interrupts and should I be paying full price for a lower quality of service compared just to my next door neighbor ?
This is a very hard question for me to ask myself. I like using Cable rather than a Dialup Service, but there is also the whole principle to the matter as well.
*Should I pay full price for a service that is substandard to everyone else’s?
*Should I pay full price for the same connecting I used to get a discount for, because of the poor quality?
*Should I call and complain everyday and turn this into a daily ritual? I cant keep taking time off from work to wait for someone who does nothing except stand around and futz with the computer for 20mintes and recognize the issue.
*Should I have to complain so much and go through the process which is like pulling teeth to get you guys to do something about it?
Maybe this is all my fault, and I am doing something wrong. What do I have to do to get this fixed? I don’t want to have to get DSL, so someone please help me. What am I doing wrong. I cannot keep taking time off from work to have someone come out only to recognize I have an issue and never fix it.
To Whomever at Comcast:
Is it so wrong of me to want, after a year of having repeated service calls with no resolution to the issue to ask, and request, that the cable service provided to me is the same as everyone else’s?
If you handed noticed-
Well if you haven’t noticed by now I am really tying to get this situation fixed and resolved. Mostly because, it is to the point where I am going to have to stop using Comcast and get DSL, or AOL or something because its more reliable. Which I really don’t want to do in the first place cable is supposed to be reliable and always on and faster.
A little over a year not and I am running out of options though.
Seriously Cant anyone help?

Wed/Jan/18
An eventful day-
Just a few minutes ago, got a phone call from the Comcast Cable GUY (2:20pm). He then Says he’s been working on trying to find the problem from 1 O’clock. Apparently, and maybe the case, (it was a brief conversation and he will get back to me later) but maybe some part has gone bad somewhere and he said he was waiting on a phone call from someone else.
In any case, he said that they are trying to clear up the problem and that its been running better sense the Jan/14.….? Not here it hasn’t. LOL We also had a brief discussion about how due to my repeated use of the internet that maybe I notices this more than other people do. My next door neighbor does not seem to have any issues last time I talk to them. But the guy said someone who lives on Broadway (few streets over) has been having issues too so maybe its this part.
I said; So I should see some improvement today… silence…and a brief pause….. After I find out what the problem is Ill come over and discuss it with you so you know exactly what is going on.
I do have a feeling I am going to be told this is going to take weeks to fix or at least awhile. Apparently a Part is needed maybe. Ill have to wait until the guy shows and gives me a full explanation though.
I called my wife and told her of the event and she is pretty emphatic about returning the TV cable box as the TV picture is better without it and she only really looks at the local or 3-like 70 anyway. She was like “Bad Part?” well its been bad for over a year then! We should get a refund for the whole year then… Sorry Comcast she is on a Refund Kick… I just want it to work.
Part/4-
The Tech Supervisor Mark, showed up at my door and tried to explain the issues. I felt kind of bad cause I probably know he got Chewed on along with some other people probably. At least they sent someone older and who looked like he had more experience and knew what he was talking about and could actually find the issue.
I tried to be as apologetic as I could, and tried to explain that its just because this has been such a persistent issue over the past year and a half, and I have had way too many service calls for this not to be fix by now. I even went so far as to explain; it’s a new year and we are trying to get this problem finally fixed. I was also quick to mention how nice it was outside and that at least it was a good day to run around outside. I would have felt really bad if it was raining or snowing out, but it was a nice day probably upper 60s and sunny.
We briefly discussed the issues and he said he and some others (I guess) had been working t the Head End fixing some issues… Which actually might have fixed my TV picture, seems better right now currently though. Currently NO digital Blocking on any channels currently, but as I said, it’s a sporadic issue popping up one day and going away the next or the problem lasting weeks and months then nothing for a few days and weeks.
Mark, tried to explain that maybe the problem that I might been having (apparently along with a few others) was that a Temporary Line was connected on the MAIN. Basically 1” Main Line Cable run it to cable like that’s in your house (cant remember but off hand I think its 5, 10 or 15 gauge cable) and back to 1” Main Line Cable. It was all a little technical, I just nodded and said yes, and at least you might have found the issue right?
He didn’t know how long that had been like that, and I said; probably for over three years as the previous owner had issues too, or at least sense I had bought this house about a year and a half.
I went so far as to showed him some print screens of some of the issues I have been having, and I know he noticed all the yellow recites in my computer room. : P Unfortunately, I deleted all my old Print Screen saves when the guy last Monday (ninth) showed up and said he would fix the line, or at least track it down. I only had one from the previous night to show him or something.
In any case, while discussing this Mark, said the guy that came out the other Monday never filled out a work order or something like that. I basically tried to explain that is the kind of thing I have been dealing with for little over a year. Tech after Tech after Tech; as I looked at all the yellow recites on top of my computer desk.
Mark also, basically said, I should have pretty fast cable considering I only have two nodes and then basically it runs back to Comcast, or something like that. However, that Temporary Line is probably causing the issues. No definite date on a fix, but maybe 24-hours or a few days, but the matter had been expedited or something like that. *Cross fingers*
That’s the real issue with this cable, its sporadic, and comes and goes. I’m pretty sure they are going to try to replace that line, but you know what….. I have heard that before actually. I have actually heard that for over a year now. Even the expedited part. : P
Mark tried to thank me for pointing out this issue, and made some comment about how its actually helping them….but………. I can kind of tell he had been getting yelled at or something by someone. It was not obvious, but I could tell.
I felt kind of bad about that, but… That happens when you work for someone, and the people who work for you (below you) don’t do what they are supposed too.
I kind of tried to briefly explain to Mark about the issue again and that usually by the time a Supervisor gets out the issue has cleared up for a time….. Odd how that works by the way. But basically I got the old…well it looks like its working ok now and you should have seen some improvements over the last few days… thingy..
We started talking about that Temporary Line being connected again and I walked Mark to the door and we said our goodbyes and I apologized again for being such a pain in the about this whole matter.
Part/5-
I called the wife and told here about everything. The first thing she asked is; is it fixed? She is still not happy especially when I tired to explain what the issue was and probably was and that at least maybe they found it.
I have no idea of what kind of onward action maybe on my part in the end if things don’t get better. Its like trying to argue with the old Bell Telephone Company when that was the only phone company in the US and no other phone companies existed.
I hope to one day, be a satisfied Comcast Customer, but to date I have yet to feel that way, at least with the Internet in any case and that’s only because I really don’t watch TV.
I am also, hoping when, and if, some LINE is replaced somewhere that I see some drastic improvement along with apparently a lot of other people in my community and a lot less issues also. I still don’t believe that I should be just setting for; Ok well at least its ON now, or the light has finally stopped flashing.
All a SNAFU?
That’s highly questionable at this point, and I have to be honest with you. This is going on a year and a half of dealing with this. This SNAFU, could be the case, but it seems more like policy, or a standing Comcast Company Directive actually if you want my honest opinion. I don’t know what the Maintenance Budget is for my area, but you might want to consider doubling it, or tripling it.
I really don’t care actually when this is fixed, as long as the issue is fixed. I cannot make a final judgment until it is finally fixed and go on and try to take further action onward from that point.
Thus far I have only been given an explanation. I don’t know if anyone at Comcast realize exactly how many times I have had an explanation given too me though (either on the phone with a service tech or from an actual person “tech” at my house). The list is extensive of the actual explanations I have had over the past year and a half, but my favorite one is; squirrels.
Part/6-
We are still waiting on phone calls from people who said they would call us back today and check what’s going on. Both of us, (me and the wife) are slowly losing momentum again as this whole issue gets dragged out for weeks and weeks at a time.
She is tired and I’m tired too, and Comcast is warring us down again it looks like. My wife was like; “do I have to call them, I really didn’t have a good day anyway and I’m tired. They were supposed to call us anyway, lets wait.”
I tried to make a phone call (half heartedly, I myself as I’m tired too) as Carla (at my local Comcast office) wanted to know how the service call went, but after repeated attempts and being shuffled off to Billing, and then being put on hold : P ……and its actually getting close to dinner time. Maybe after dinner if I don’t just fall asleep first.
So, in the end its still hang on for a few more days, and or, wait to have the problem fixed. Your guess is as good as mine, people. More Smoke and Mirrors or an actual Fix. Your guess is as good as mine.
As for me, I’m going to bed, I’m worn out. Maybe a new line to replace that temporary one, maybe just saying I might get a new line to replace that temporary one.
The Saga continues. Maybe it will end someday.

I have not been able to open up Lightroom on my computer for over a year now. Whenever I double click on it, this comes up - can anyone help? Problem signature: Problem Event Name:APPCRASH Application Name:lightroom.exe Application Version:3.4.1.10

First thing to try is the latest version of Lightroom (currently 5.6). If it don't crash, then problem solved - upgrade.
If Lr5 won't run on your machine, then Lr4 instead.
If both Lr5 and Lr4 crash on your machine, then at least you know it's a not a Lightroom version problem but something wonked in your system.
If you can't figure out how to resolve the crash on the system you have, then it's time for a new system (or try another converter/editor app).
PS - A few things to try:
* After re-installing new version, if that doesn't fix it, then get rid of all Lightroom-related data files (rename them so they can be restored), in case problem is in Lr data file.
* Remove all non-essential hardware in case problem is hardware/driver.
* Startup up machine with minimal software services.
* If still no go, consider updating driver software, including mainboard drivers and/or bios firmware if need be.
* Of course run all the system hardware and software diagnostics you can - problem could be failing disk or ram..
* Check system event logs for any clues.
If you don't know how to do some of these things - ask.
Do not say "you've tried everything" unless you want a lecture - there is most definitely something you haven't tried. It's like when you can't find your car keys - you haven't looked everywhere - there is somewhere you haven't looked!
PS - Has Lightroom EVER worked on your machine? what's changed since then..
Good luck,
Rob

This outlook problem hasn't been resolved for over 2 years!!! WHY?
