Thunderbolt thinks I'm on the west coast instead if central time.

Recently got the HTC Thunderbolt. It randomly thinks my current location is Sacramento, CA (Pacific Time. I am located near New Orleans, LA (Central Time). I have tried to force it back with no luck. Spoke to VZW tech support, they are baffled also. I have the phone for about a week, this is the second time it's done this. First time it took about 18 hours to correct itself. Any thhoughts on how to correct?

If you are having issues with your Maps, try the following:
1. Select Menu
2. Select Settings
3. Turn off the VZW Location Services
Also, make sure GPS and Google Location Services are on. Once this is done, please go to Maps and lock on to your position.
If you are having issues with the Weather application, follow the steps listed above and manually refresh your Weather.
Please let us know if this works.
Thank you,

Anyone from the West Coast get their iPhone 6/6+ tracking info yet??

I preordered an iPhone 6 64GB gold and a iPhone 6+ 64GB silver on 9/12. Got my confirmation email couple minutes later with the location code W779001. Since then my order has not continued processing. I have read many people on the East Coast and other parts started receiving their tracking numbers yesterday, but I haven't seen anyone from the West Coast. Am I the only one? Still hoping for 9/19 delivery date.

Ive also heard some people have received their tracking number. I ordered mine (iPhone 6 plus, 64gb, gold) at 12:11 am on 9/12, received confirmation email within minutes with a delivery date of 9/19. When I went to see the order status, it said its in process and hasn't changed since then, but the expected delivery date said 10/7. I just checked it again the other day and now it says "unable to give a date". Money has not been taken from my bank account either and Verizon customer service reps have no idea whats going on with it. Super annoying considering I am leaving town the 21st for 2 weeks. I can't imagine ordering mine at 12:11am was too late to receive one by the 19th. Ridiculous. I would of preordered elsewhere if I knew this.

Set my outlook calender appointment east cost time for 7am but when i went to the west coast it changed the appointmnet to 4am

You have Time Zone support turned on. 4 AM on the west coast IS 7 AM where you were. You need to specify the time zone for the appointment if it is different from the one you're in when you create it.

File when copied , is having the current timestamp instead of original time

Hello,
I am copying a file file-1(x-date) from server-A to Server-B. when the file-1 is copied to server-b, the size and everything remains fine but the timestamp changes to current timestamp.(Y-DATE)
my issue : I want to the file when copied to have original time-stamp(X-DATE)
any idea why this is happening ???
Thanks

I'm not sure what the desired result is ... are you on the west coast?
I'll assume Chicago time is incorrect and west coast time is what you want.
Try this: Go to Seetings > General > Date & Time and do these two things:
1. Turn "Set Automatically" off. Then set "Time Zone" right below it to a west coast city, say, Cupertino. If the time is shown incorrectly, do "Set Date and Time" and correct it
2. Turn "Set Automatically" back on.
If these steps don't correct it, contact your cellular carrier, as setting time automatically is in their hands.

Incorrect Time - Daylight Savings on West Coast

Here on the West Coast, daylight savings time just ended and my 3Gs is still showing the time as being an hour ahead of what it should now be.
Funny thing is when I go into the World Clock on my phone, it shows correctly. I even tried re-syncing in iTunes. The time continues to be ahead by one hour.
Any ideas???

Syncing won't change this.
If you have the date and time set to automatic, the date and time is set by the cell tower or server that is serving the cell tower that your iPhone is connected to.
Any change after powering your iPhone off and on and/or after an iPhone reset?
If not, switch Set Automatically off and manually set the time. Wait until later today and switch it back to Set Automatically to see if the cell tower or server that is serving the cell tower your iPhone is connected to has been updated.

I have a photo with 25 faces. I have named 17 with no problem but the remaining 8 names I am unable to make them stick. I go through the process (have done it thousands of times) and no luck. I have shut down the computer, I have unplugged it, I have turned iPhoto off and nothing will allow me to name these remaining photos. I type in the name and click RETURN and the name holds, I close the photo and bring it back and the name is gone. I have done this dozen of times - still no luck. I have a few other photos of groups and the same thing is happening with just a few of the faces. All the faces are clear, same size and no different in clarity than the other faces. I have tried changing the size of the "box" around the photo to name it - still no luck.
I am on the ground floor so I can not throw the computer out the window.

Im wondering why my post hasn't been answered yet. I did file a report with the BBB and I had a rude representative from Verizon call me named Steve. He said I can file all of the reports I want and I will just keep getting calls from him. I can understand why my phone couldn't be replaced because of the small crack. I guess I have to eat that one (but it sucks because the lollipop update is what caused the problems) but what about all of the data overage I had to pay for for trying to fix this phone because of a lollipop update. I dont think it is fair to have to pay that as well. In addition, because I have an east coast phone number but live on the west coast, I cannot have tech support after 8pm. Verizon has cut this off. Im very dissatisfied and I have been a customer of Verizon for 13 years. Im hoping for a response this time.

I moved across the country. My iCal event times fell back 3 hours.

So, I moved from the East Coast the West Coast. Now all my recurring events and items created on the east coast (while out there) are appearing as 3 hours earlier on my iCal and iPhone. Example:
Original event time: 1 pm (created on east coast)
Event time in iCal now: 10 am (3 hours earlier)
DESIRED time in iCal: 1 pm
Is there a way to do this automatically without having to go into each event and change manually? Thanks in advance!

Yes, go to your settings and under Advanced, turn off Time Zone support.

FIOS not good ISP for gaming in North East, bad routing to canada and west coast.

Yes the same thing has been happening to me. It also appears it was a problem back in january according to this thread....

Here is a past MWO thread started at the same time by a verizon customer. I believe almost all of thise users have quit fios or quit MWO.
http://mwomercs.com/forums/topic/91680-higher-ping-times-after-patch/page__st__80
Many people in the game believe its due to MWO patches, but I think thats just a placebo. I believe it is to do with the cold winter months and verizon not being able to handle the load. Speedtests to any west coast, specifically vancouver server, have the same results.
I have called verizon, gone to live chat, spoken to many different supervisors and technicians and have gotten no help with this issue. They basically tell me its not their problem.
After doing many traceroutes and speedtests. It appears I am getting routed through europe to get to canada from NY, which just doesn't make any common sense. First verizon claims the link router sending us to europe is not owned by them. Then we have to prove to them that it in fact is with public business records and WHOIS reports. Which also seemed to be the case for others in that thread back in january.
IT seems the issue in january might of been that particular router was geting overloaded they might have fixed the circuit on that verizon link/border router in question. But now it seems the issue has been passed up the line to the next link router and now that next circuit up the line is getting congested.

Going from 20 ping to 100 depending on time of day, which seems to 24 hours a day now! is a real tease and frustrating, and when there is packet loss or excessive spikes, thats when we lose the connection, session lost messages, black screen issue...etc...
When reading that past thread, The problem server back in january was tinet-gw.customer.alter.net [152.179.72.122] (the one that routes us through europ) but now it seems the burden has been passed up the chain to the next link/border router and circuit internap-gw.ip4.tinet.net [77.67.70.94].
Maybe the guys back in january were able to pressure verizon to increase bandwidth on the tinet circuit on tha verizon router in NY because they actually owned that server, even though they originally tried to lie and claim they didn't. Even if not part of FIOS, and after the 6th hop. Its obvious it was theirs cause it ends with alter.net, was right here in NYC, WHOIS reports gave verizons email, and business records show they bought it in 2006.
Fios doesn't contact DSL, residential doesn't contact business...etc.. Its like this company doesn't remember how 9/11 happened!!!
BUt Now the burden is on the the next link router which routes to internap. And that is a german server and part of tinet.net and is a different company that verizon does not have direct access to. Verizon would not even email the admin for me, which many feel is unprofessional.
You can try emailing that admin yourself or doing some trace routes your self and calling and pressuring verizon to address the issue themselves.
It seems verizon fios can't handle routing people to canada, especially in the cold months of the year. They must not be able to handle their load. It seems verizon fios is really a scam, and fiber optics is just a pretty name, but in reality is no different then any other network, except locally. The only difference we need to look at when buying bandwidth, is pricing period. The fact it is fiber optics means diddly squat! And the more people that get fios, i predict the worse their network is going to get.
I have sent an email to the admin of that german server {edited for privacy} but I would be shocked if I got any reply. Ridiculous for verizon to suggest I do that in the first place.
People with timer warner in the same area are getting constant 20-40 ping to MWO, while verizon fios customers are getting terrible connections right now.

What you are seeing here has nothing at all to do with what your speed is. Latency has nothing to do with speed, it has to do with distance and network congestion. Your local ISP, no matter who it is, can not directly affect how another company (in your case Internap Network Services Corporation) routes data. Now if there was a problem in a link directly connected to your local ISP, for example:
4 94 ms 12 ms 10 ms ae0-0.NY325-BB-RTR2.verizon-gni.net [130.81.209.110]
5 9 ms 15 ms 12 ms 0.so-4-0-1.XT2.NYC4.ALTER.NET [152.63.10.29]
*from your tracert
The above link is leaving Verizon local control and entering Alter.Net control, if there was latency on a regular basis there then this should be reported to Verizon as your local ISP and that will filter up to their NOC group who will contact Alter.net and figure out the issue with that link. If the issue is a faulty link it will get fixed, if the issue is a link undergoing to much traffic its ability to handle the traffic will either be increased where possible or routed around where possible. The whole issue of peer-to-peer networking is very complex (which is what the Supreme Court was reviewing by the way) and a number of issues come into play. If the connection point only experiences high traffic sometimes on a very limited basis then generally routing some traffic to different connections is what is done.
Now in your later postes you show the following:
8 38 ms 39 ms 39 ms xe-8-2-0.tor10.ip4.tinet.net [141.136.107.98]
9 100 ms 104 ms 103 ms internap-gw.ip4.tinet.net [77.67.70.94]
10 97 ms 99 ms 98 ms border1.te7-1-bbnet1.tor001.pnap.net [70.42.24.132]
11 103 ms 103 ms 96 ms relay-1.mwtactics.com [70.42.29.65]
That clearly shows the problem is inside the tinet.net (Internap Network Services Corporation) network. This network is also the network providing the link into this game server. What does this tell us? From what you are seeing it tells us that either Internap does not have enough bandwidth to server the amount of traffic down to this server or the game company has not purchased a high enough link. The latter is unlikely. Most likely the issue is that Verizon's Fios product is growing with more and more people are trying to reach that game from the Fios network. This causes issues at the link point, which Verizon apparently has taken steps to fix as well as those internal links going down to the game servers. Now your local ISP (Verizon) cannot help the latter half of that. One can hope the end user ISP (in your case Internap Network Services Corporation) will increase their internal bandwidth or router traffic around problem areas.

How Can i connect using Thunderbolt a Macbook Pro with the New iMac

I bought the new Macbook Pro with Thunderbolt and instead of buying a new external monitor, i am thinking that the new iMac with Thunderbolt is a great idea.
Is there a cable to connect the Macbook Pro and use as iMac as external monitor, using Thunderbolt.
thanks

I understood your question perfectly and the answer is absolutely yes. When you change the iMac into target display mode you underlying operating system continues to run all existing applications. For example in my case if I finished editing some video and am about to enter a lengthy render process or something which may draw lots of resources like hand real, I set it to start on the iMac and then switch it to target display mode to use it as a monitor with my MacBook air in the meantime.
Only one small caveat in your case though. Since the target display mode is a feature of OSX (eg the OS interprets the special key stroke and changes the iMac into target display mode) you should make sure Lion server supports the target display mode feature. I don't see a reason why it wouldn't but that's the only thing currently crossing my mind. Keep in mind the compatibilities between ports as noted in my blog. If any of your machines have mini display port and you intend to connect the new iMac in target display mode you will run into issues. In that special scenario, I recommend buying a refurb iMac from 2010 which urtilize the displayport allowing you to use it as a display for all your macs -- those with thunderbolt as well as those with displayport. If you have thunderbolts then definitely go with the thunderbolt iMac.

Please read my question carefully, this is, I think, a question for the experts. It's not the usual name change question.
When I setup my new MacBook Pro, something slipped by me and my computer was named First-Lasts-MacBook-Pro (using my real first and last name).
I changed the computer name in Preferences/Sharing to a new name and Preferences/Accounts to just be Mike. I can right click on my account name, choose advanced, and see that everything looks right.
However, If I do a scan of my network with my iPhone using the free version of IP Scanner, it lists my computer as First-Lasts-MacBook-Pro! And it lists the user as First-Last.
So even though another Mac just sees my new computer name, and my home folder is Mike, somewhere in the system the original setup with my full name is still stored. And it's available on a network scan. So my full name might show up at a coffee shop.
Can I fully change the name without doing a complete re-install of Lion and all my apps?

One thought... you said the iPhone displayed your computer's old name? I think that you must have used the iPhone with this computer before you changed the name. So no one else's iPhone should display your full name unless that iPhone had previously connected to your Mac. For example, I did this exact same change, and I use the Keynote Remote app to connect with my MacBook Pro. It would no longer link with my MacBook Pro under the old name, and I found that I had to unlink and then create a new link under the new name. So the answer to your question is, there is nothing you need to do on the Mac, but rather the phone, and no other phone will display your full name.

I think I have opened the sobig.f virus in my hotmail account and it keeps seding emails to my contacts. How do I stop it, and will it effect any of my other transactions like internet banking/shopping, is it safe To continue using my ipad ?

This isn't due to malware. There is no known malware capable of infecting an iPad that has not been jailbroken (ie, hacked to allow apps from outside the App Store).
As lizdance40 says, your Hotmail account has been hacked remotely. Change the password immediately. Hotmail accounts are popular targets, but as long as you choose a good password, and make sure that password is not the same as a password you use with any other account, you should be safe.
I disagree with lizdance40's statement that you have to abandon the account and create a new e-mail address. If a hacker is able to get back in even after changing the password, the problem is not with the account itself. There's another vulnerability of some kind somewhere. Perhaps the account allows hackers to leave a "back door" to get back in (such as with GMail's delegation feature), in which case any such feature needs to be reviewed and have settings changed. Perhaps you are checking mail in an insecure manner while on an insecure network (ie, a wireless network that requires no password). Perhaps you are using a password on multiple accounts, and a different account has been compromised. Perhaps a hacker has used knowledge gained by prior access to your account to achieve "social hacking" (ie, convincing a tech to give him access because he has "forgotten the password"). There are many scenarios, but there's no good reason to abandon the account entirely.

hi, i have a late 2008 15 inch macbook pro, which have a mini display port.
I noticed that thunderbolt and mini display port looks a like. So, my question is :
can i connect thunderbolt duo hard drive to the mini display port of a late 2008 macbook pro which do not have thunderbolt port, but have mini display port.
thank you

ken94538,
no, you’d need a Thunderbolt-to-FireWire adapter or Thunderbolt-to-USB adapter to be able to access your Thunderbolt hard drive from your 2008 MacBook Pro.

Thunderbolt thinks I'm on the west coast instead if central time.
