To anyone who has had the trackpad problem and had it replaced...

So if anyone has had the trackpad problem where it doesn't click or erratically doesn't move the cursor, and HAS gone to the apple store and had it fixed, does your new one work properly now?
I have an appointment this evening to have it looked at (and probably replaced) but if this is a consistent problem with all models, its not going to fix it. I am wondering if I should wait until Apple catches on to this, and does something about it.
Anyone have any success stories?

My suggestion would be to KEEP your MacBook. There are several other discussions with the same issue.
It seems as though this issue is widespread.
Why copy data, wipe the old one clean, trade out for a new MacBook, transfer all the data BACK .... only to find your issue unresolved?
It's not worth the hassle. My guess? Apple will issue a firmware update for the trackpad issue.

    I just update to iOS 7 on my iPhone 4s. The calendars on my iPhone are not keeping the information on the days that should be marked.  The info is there in my iCloud on my computer, just not on my phone.   Has anyone else had the same problem and what can I do about it?  Is it at bug in the iOS 7 update?

    What do you mean by "on the days that should be marked"?  Are you calendar events displayed on the wrong days?

  • Just wondered if anyone else is experiencing the following problem and knows a solution. I know a few friends who are also having the issue so its obviously something wrong with IOS7.   Basically I have an iphone 4 and upgraded to v7 and most recently v7.

    Just wondered if anyone else is experiencing the following problem and knows a solution. I know a few friends who are also having the issue so its obviously something wrong with IOS7.
    Basically I have an iphone 4 and upgraded to v7 and most recently v7.0.2. When I am on calls the phone started to beep and vibrate and sometimes change the call to speaker. It seems to be that the screen is sometimes active whilst on calls and so my ear is actually pressing the buttons and hitting numbers or changing it to speaker phone. It has also cancelled a call a few times.
    This is extremely annoying and makes every call a worry.
    Any ideas of how to solve this problem?

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

  • I've just signed up to iTunes Match as I have songs on my iPhone 4 which wont sync with iTunes as they are from CDs but I can't see my music in the cloud now. Anyone had the same problem and have an easy fix?

    I've just signed up to iTunes Match as I have songs on my iPhone 4 which wont sync with iTunes as they are from CDs but I can't see my music in the cloud now. Anyone had the same problem and have an easy fix?

    What fixed it for me:
    On your computer, open iTunes > My iPhone (or whatever name you gave your iPhone) > "Music" page
    Uncheck "Sync Music"
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
    Let it run and finish
    Uncheck the box for every song, playlist, etc.
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right) (This step may be unnecessary, but I did it and got the result I wanted.)
    Let it run and finish
    Check the boxes for the music you want on your iPhone
    Click "Sync" button (bottom right)
    Let it run and finish
    See if that doesn't work for you.  I tried a lot of things that did nothing, but this seems to have fixed it, and quickly.

  • Camera on iPhone4 doesn't work, when you use either the icon on the screen all you get the the shutter. I am unable take pictures. Has anyone had the same problem and are there any solutions?

    The camera on my iPhone 4 isn't working and hasn't for quite sometime. I have updated the phone to IOS 6 and it hasn't made any difference.
    When you use the icon that appears at the bottom of the screen or the camera icon on the main screen all you see is the camera shutter.I have tried to restore the camera and that hasn't made any difference. I have spoken to Apple support and they sent me a support site to check out, but there isn't any specific solution for my problem. Has anyone had a similar problem and is there a solution?

    Try:
    - Reset the iPhone. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPhone: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPhone.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    The answer is as John T Smith says - you need to meet minimums.  Here lies an interesting thought for the future.  When Adobe, as it surely will, decides not to support current operating systems, it will dictate when everyone has to update their computers because we no longer own the software so will in effect be forced to update at least the operating system in order to run the software.  This is quite different from previous situation because we could then choose to keep an older version of PS that was indeed compatible with our existing computers. Wait for the outcry when it happens!

  • Has anyone sent their iPhone to be repaired only to get it back with the same problems it had before it was sent off?

    Hi all.
    I reported two problems to Apple about my iPhone 4S. The first being that the 3G stopped working (my phone has never been dropped, damaged or gotten wet) and the second that it keeps making a random and incessant beeping sound that can only be described as a "warning tone" even though no notification pops up on the screen and after going through all of the preset tones on the phone, I couldn't find one that matches.
    I know that it's not my service provider's fault in regards to the 3G as I've put my SIM card in a friend's iPhone who is on the same network and the 3G worked perfectly fine.
    This isn't my gripe, my gripe is that after having explained this to Apple and sending them my phone (I still have about 40 days of my one year warranty), I received it back a few days later with the exact same problems!!!
    Has anyone else sent their iDevice off to get "fixed" only to find out that all they did was repackage your item and send it back to you?

    See if you can force the phone into recovery mode:
    Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. Select restore from backup, follow by syncing your itunes content.

  • I recently updated my 4s to the newest IOS and I now cannot turn on Wi-fi. HAs anyone esle had the same problem?  Is there a fix?

    I recently updated my Iphone 4s to the newest IOS and I now cannot turn on Wi-fi. Has anyone esle had the same problem?  Is there a fix? I've tries restoring to a previous software update, but it appears the wi-fi was completely disabled and I do not have the ability to turn it on.

    Apple is aware of the issue and is expected to release 7.0.3 next week to address iMessage issues.
    In the meantime I have found that a good old fashion reset cures it for a while.

    Sorry I gave this a 'this helped me' but after a long struggle I found some ticked box somewhere from some unauthorised chrome extension blaaa....... the link you gave was great, not only did it confirm all the bad things google is supposed to be up to it provided a better browser. Cheers man.
    Anyone who find this; I disabled all extension in chrome. I then searched the word proxy in the settings section. A button came up, "change proxy settings" I clicked on it. Earlier it was greyed out as an extension was interefering.. It brought up a box with my own settings from my computer. Then I clicked LAN settings, then unchecked the 'Use a proxy server' button.
    P.S. If you're using chrome, bail, and dowload Komodo Dragon. It's virtually identical, but you're not tracked, and you can use chrome extensions, and you can quickily transfer your chrome preferences into it.

  • My Bootstrap nav conundrum: Does anyone who has used a bootstrap nav in BC had this issue...

    My Bootstrap nav conundrum: Does anyone who has used a bootstrap nav in BC had this issue or know the fix: If you look at any page on http://www.aerotype.com, the first two clicks on almost any part of the page (like the rotator image left or right arrow) cause the page to jump, and you open the inspector on the top nav area and look at the div with the class="navbar-collapse collapse navbar-right navbar-ex1-collapse" you'll see that an additional class, .in, is added and .collapse is removed on the first click, and a style="height: auto;" is added, then on the second click it's changed to style="height: 0;"... I can't figure our what is causing 'in' to be added to the class (or .collapse removed), what it's for, or how to change it, if that is the issue... the his doesn't happen when the class: navbar-collapse is removed, so I think is has something to do with that but of course the collapse doesn't function without it. If anyone can enlighten me on what is going on I would Greatly appreciate it.

    You have this click function on the top'ish part of your site.js that is causing this issue!
    // collapse navbar in phone mode on click $(document).on('click',function(){ $('.navbar-collapse').collapse('hide'); }) // end collapse navbar in phone mode on click
    Your are better off just deleting it (the click function) as it is not doing what the code comment says it does.

  • My iPhone 4 has lost SIM connection several times over the past week when the phone is left on continually. I have had the SIM checked and it was not the source of the problem. I have found that I can reactivate the SIM by switching the phone off and on.

    My iPhone 4 has lost SIM connection several times over the past week when the phone is left on continually. I have had the SIM checked and it was not the source of the problem. I have found that I can reactivate the SIM by switching the phone off and on again. Has anyone else experienced this problem and if so, is there an easy fix. I have been advised by Apple that the latest IOS update may overcome this situation but I'm only on slow download speeds and 690 Mb would take forever. I would appreciate any advice.
    Best regards,
