To Apple Discussions Admin:   Suggesting a minor correction...

Hello!
The "My Subscriptions" page of the Apple Discussions Website states,"Your Email Address
All subscription updates will be emailed to your email address: ________. If this is incorrect, please update your email address on the settings page. to change one's email address, we go to the my settings page." (There's direct link to My Settings page.)
However, My Settings page is not where an email address can be changed. One person after another gets stuck here, because the link is official site information. Frustrated, the same question regarding where one can change an email address or if that's even possible is posted over and over again.
While I may be missing something here, I would like to suggest a very simple solution: change the information on the My Subscriptions page and create a correct link to https://myinfo.apple.com ...not to the My Settings page.
Take care!

  • Future Notice from Apple Discussions Admin:

    In the not too distant future I suspect we'll be getting the following announcement:
    Due to conditions we'd rather not admit to, in order to better serve the users of the Apple Discussion Forum we have temporarily suspended all activity. We'll update this announcement as the situation changes.
    Let's face it. This new board was rolled out without adequate testing. Searching is less accurate than it was. Posting a URL reference to another thread or to a specific post of a thread is problematic. It is more difficult to check back on the threads that one is involved with. Email notification still doesn't work properly. For those of us with vision difficulties the forum is still too hard to read. It is still slow...
    Hey Steve! How about rolling some heads over here and getting this thing fixed, eh?

    Hi dwb!
    Posting a URL reference to another thread or to a specific post of a thread is problematic.

    To whom it may concern, This morning I purchased an album, on listening to it three of the tracks are not playing correctly. I read on an apple discussion board that I should delete them and re-download them. This did not work as I was asked to pay for them, and one of the tracks was an album only track.

  • Issue with setting up an account for Apple Discussions

    Off and on for 4 or 5 years I have posted questions or responded to them the in PowerBook G4 15" Titanium section. Then a couple of weeks ago I tried to log in and was informed that my Apple ID had been disabled for security reasons. I then created a new Apple ID and password and had no difficulty logging in with that. However, to post in the Apple Discussions I was prompted to create a new account for that purpose. When I filled in the fields, checked the box agreeing to the conditions, and clicked the Submit button, I got no error message, but the "Create New Account" screen reloaded and I still couldn't post. Clicking login just brought up the same screen again. After trying and failing to create a new posting account off and on over a period of a week I finally went to the Seattle Apple Store to see if they could help me. The first employee kindly went through the steps with me three times with the same baffling result. Finally a second employee helped me and was successful on his third try (I thanked him profusely!). However, even he could not identify the problem because no error message ever appeared. Was I trying to use an alias that didn't work for some reason? Does the Other Computer Information field need to be filled in even though it looks optional because it doesn't have an asterisk? Is the secret to get help at an Apple Store? All just FYI.

    Thanks, jpfresno. The Apple Store guy also suggested that the alias I wanted might already be in use, but evidently that wasn't the case.
    At this point I should clarify that my account issues have been fully resolved. The point of my post is a larger issue--usability of the Create New Account screen. The fact that neither I nor two Apple Store employees could figure out why attempting to create a new account for Apple Discussions repeatedly failed was due to lack of feedback after clicking the Submit button. I would normally expect to see a message like "This alias already in use" or "This field must be filled in" but there were no messages of any sort.

  • Can I use the Apple Discussion software?

    I have my own web server and I was looking for some good forum software. I usually use phpBB. However, I started dreaming of forum software that would be great and remembered how much I like the Apple Discussions forums.
    I am sure the answer is no, but it does not hurt to ask. Does Apple have any plans to make their forums software available for other people to use?
    If this is not the proper forum for this topic, I apologize. It did not seem to fit anywhere else.
    Thanks,
    Jonathan

    I agree. I am never sure when to mark something as a question because it may be quick or it may be a hard one and trying to decide who gets credit for what comments seems like a lot more work than I am looking for usually.
    You had a definite Question. I do not see the confusion in marking it as such
    clearly you did, it certainly was not a statement. Others do the work to help.
    Deciding whom to reward and w/ what I think should be part of your work in return.

    Try #5.
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • HT1311 Though i am signed into Apple ID with new credentials (all correct) the iMessage shows my old email address

    Though i am signed into Apple ID with new credentials (all correct) the iMessage shows my old email address
    I can therefore not sign in
    Any suggestions please?

    Content and Apple IDs -
    Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with another Apple ID with a new Apple ID.
    Apple ID security issues -
    Call Apple Care and ask for the Account Security Team. They can assist you with your issue of recovering the old Apple ID.

  • Do I have to login every time I access Apple discussions using Safari

    Is there a way to stay logged in on my Apple ID on the Apple website.
    Each time I launch Safari and go to Apple Discussions I have to manually login.
    I seem to remember in the past I didn't need to do this, maybe on older OS X, maybe I've changed a pref inadvertently.

    Just to add to the information already provided:
    I seem to remember in the past I didn't need to do this, ...
    Yes, that was correct. In an older version of the Discussions forum you used to not have to login all the time, but the forum administrators changed things about 12-18 months ago.

  • E're sorry, Apple Discussions are temporarily unavailable.

    Sorry for posting in this forum but at present I can only access discussions through the 'Popular Discussions Forums' link at the bottom of the support homepage.
    Basically for the past few days, I've received the message "We're sorry, Apple Discussions are temporarily unavailable" when I click on the Discussions link under the support tab. I've emptied the cache and reset Safari but with no joy.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks

    Hi Darren & Adam!
    It's not your systems that are at fault.
    Everyone is experiencing down times here.
    There have been more problems than usual, with the Apple Discussions site for the past week or so.
    I'm sure the Sysops are aware of this, and are working very hard to correct it.
    Hang in there!

  • Minor correction of project data has taken place (1)

    Hey peeps,
    Last night i finished a track in Logic all mixed and everything done. I happened to close Logic after i had finished with everything. When i re opened the project i was working on a message came up saying "Minor correction of project data has taken place (1)"
    The only option to click is "Ok" so i clicked that and after i do that it says "Warning! Project may be damaged" and again the only option to click is Ok so i clicked that....
    When the project opens there is nothing inside it, Logic seems to have wiped everything within the project!
    I checked my Project File Back Ups folder and they all do the same thing...
    I honestly feel like crying!!!!
    If anyone knows what's gone on please help me because after all those hours of work my project is now not opening!
    Please please help.
    Thanks.

    I'm really sorry for your troubles and hope you won't loose all your work.
    If this is a bug (and you are not the only one who has this problems as I can read on this forum) you should tell Apple Feedback!
    But why on earth don't you guys learn how to make backups!!!!
    Say you start a project, call it:
    Song build-up
    Record your guitar and save as:
    Song Git1
    Song Git2
    Cut:
    Song Edit 1 (Editing MIDI)
    Song Edit 2 (Cut Audio)
    Mix:
    Song Mix 1
    Song Mix 2
    Song Mix 3a
    Song Mix 3b alternative
    You would have a backup of every stage of your work!! Takes 15 seconds to save under another name!

  • Apple Discussion emails...

    Hello... i've done a search on the forum but can't find anything... please could somebody tell me how to cancel the 'Apple Discussions Subscriptions' emails that are now clogging up my inbox. I've set up a filter to delete them now, but to be honest, i'd rather just cancel them altogether.
    cheers,
    J.

    James
    Check in the Forum Feedback discussions:

    Search for similar problems (I can remember something like that!) or you can post a question there and probably get it solved by an admin.

  • I Have 1 Question About The Apple Discussion Message Boards?

    I Think Apple.com & Apple Discussion Message Boards needs to come up with an Apple App for Apple iPhone & Apple iPod Touch 1 reason is cause I Try to go on The Apple Discussion Message Boards on My Safari on My Apple iPhone 4 32GB from Verizon Wireless & The Internet is very Slow on there so maybe if Apple.com & The Apple Discussion Message Boards had an App Specialty for The Apple Discussion Message Boards for Apple iPhone 4 & Apple iPod Touch maybe then The Apple Discussion Message Boards will Run more Faster cause My Apps for My Apple iPhone 4 32GB From Verizon Wireless are always faster then The Internet on My Apple iPhone 4 in Safari, I Hardly use My Safari in My Apple iPhone 4 cause it's always slow, Sometimes it's Fast but sometimes more it's Slow, so maybe I Thought we should make an Apple Discussion Message Boards iPhone App for Apple iPhone & Apple iPod Touch? it was just an Idea it was more a Suggestion to come up with an iDea of it & I Did not mean to post this in the wrong forum if I Did? Maybe My iDea's & Suggestions may not be great? but at least I Tried, you don't have to come up with any Apple Discussion Message Boards Apps if you don't want to? it's really up to you or whoever creates this part of the Forum? i'm only trying to give you some help or Suggestion or an iDea whatever you call it & i'm sorry for posting this when i know it will get deleted maybe? or maybe in The Apple Discussion Message Boards we can have a Apple Suggestion Forum for Future iDea's or whatever it may be that you want to call it? maybe some people would like to post there Thoughts & Suggestions & Future idea's to Apple on here of what they would like & want to see as long as there is no Bashing & trashing & arguing with each other & i'm sorry if I Got carried a way to much if I Did? just thought I Would have a Suggestion/Idea on an Apple Discussion Boards App for Apple iPhone & iPod Touch maybe someday on The Apple iTunes in The App Store? but if you don't think my Suggestions are so great? its ok i'm Sorry I Bothered anyone on this Forum about this, ok peace & take care from Byron.

  • Problem logging into Apple Discussions with valid AppleID

    I have been a used of the Apple Discussions Board for some time. Recently, a problem developed. When I tried to log in using my AppleID, I started receiving the message that a needed to create a new Apple Discusssions Board account.
    First, I did not understand why I needed to.
    Second, when I tried to go ahead and create the new account. It says it has problems with my AppleID.
    I noticed that after I login with that AppleID, it does not appear in the appropriate space on the Create User form. When I log in using another AppleID, I can create a new user account without a problem but my preferred Alias is already taken (I suspect by my old account).
    Is there any way to get my old account and points back?
    Thanks,
    Mitch Strickland

    Hi Holger,
    Thanks for your reply. It unfortunately hasn't solved my problem yet.
    > can you check the log files (esp. the portal.log &  usermanagement.log
    No entries are made in these logfiles during login. What I did find though is that the following entry is made in /usr/sap/<PORTAL_SID>/j2ee/j2ee_<00>/cluster/server//log/system.log:
    #1.5#C0000A021E020008000000000065B7380003E6C9A07C61C8#1098178585453#/System/Security/Audit#irj#com.sap.security.logToFile#System#0#####Client_Thread_39##0#0#Warning#1#com.sap.security#Plain###quanjer     | LOGIN.OK     | USERACCOUNT = UACC.PRIVATE_DATASOURCE.un:quanjer     |      | IP Address=[10.2.50.162]#
    This seems to indicate that the actual login attempt was succesful even though I'm still stuck on the logon screen.
    > Or you could try (just for a test) to include the  nebula.lt.nl with the correct IP from your portal
    > server to your HOSTS file in (winnt\system32\drivers\etc) 
    I tried that already and it didn't work. I just tried it again just to make sure and it still doesn't work
    > You can change that in the sapum.properties by changing (or adding) the value of
    > ume.logon.security.relax_domain.level=2
    I've made the entry in the sapum.properties and restarted the portal but to no avail, it still doesn't work.
    It's gotten even weirder: if I use the IP address of the portal in the URL (http://10.2.30.2:5000/irj) then I get the same behaviour as when I use the fully qualified domain name....I'm stuck on the logon screen again. It seems like the only URL that works correctly is http://nebula:5000/irj.
    Cheers, Arnoud

  • I use different languages in my daily activities, when typing other than English Mac does not recognize them, is there anyway can Mac stop suggesting or automatically correcting me?

    Is this a problem with the computer or with the word processor? MS Word for example seems to think its grammar and spelling are better than mine - they are not. You have to go into MS Word preferences and uncheck all the useless "help" it wants to provide.
