Too many Yellow screens, too many emails - how to unsubscribe?

I started following a yellow screen iPhone thread after getting my yellowscreen 4S direct from Apple - C39 serial
Replacement No. 1, at Apple Store Covent Garden, also yellow, did not actually swap, although they messed up the paperwork to show I did.
Replacement No. 2. at Apple Store Covent Garden, special order, 'store swap pack' took a week to arrive, also yellow C39 serial.
Replacement No. 3. via applecare by UPS, 'swap packaging' courier was supposed to wait and collect original, didn;t wait, but just as yellow.C39 serial
Replacement No. 4. again via Applecare - I think, by TNT, full retail pack, also yellow, Apple charged for a second phone DNP serial
Replacement No. 5. again via Applecare - I think, by TNT again, full retail pack again, yellow again, Apple didn't have any record of this one until I told them.
At this point Apple who had been previously utterly useless and unresponsive suddenly became very helpful, realising what a mess this all was. Wanted me to give them one last chance, would arrange collection of all 3 yellowscreen iPhone 4Ss, refunds for both phones, and an appointment at Apple store Covent Garden to allow me to see the screen before purchase.
In the event Apple store Covent Garden had no record of what my appointment was for.
It took just shy of an hour to open two iPhone 4Ss and find that both were yellow screen. Both serials began DNP, and all their stock was either DNP or C39, this time the "Genius and Genius Manager were both very helpful, Genius could see the issue at once, Genius Manager was actually colour blind, so could appreciate the issue but not see it for himself - apologetic they could not meet expectation of 'the most amazing iPhone yet' having at least as good a screen as the 4. Welcome to the post Jobs erea I suspect.
Replacement No. 6. at Apple Store Covent Garden, retail pack, yellow screen, serial beginning DNP
Replacement No. 7. at Apple Store Covent Garden, retail pack, yellow screen, serial beginning DNP
Give up on yellowscreen iPhone, revert to 3GS.
All display phones at the Apple Store Covent Garden store were C37 serials - quelle surprise!
On another subject, but the one of the title, I have been inundated with the stream of responses on the previous post I was subscribed to - about 500 not very happy iPhone users at the last count. Each email that arrives tells me,"You are receiving this email from Apple Support Communities. You can change your email preferences in your Apple Support Communities Profile."
Well, I have, and set everything to 'off' but they just keep on arriving. Does anyone know how to stem the flow. I am very sorry for anyone suffering the insipid yellow screen of their 4S, but having decided to go back to my 3GS, I don't want to be updated five times a day..
Thanks for any help

How many photos is too much

I realize that this is one of those "your mileage may vary" type questions, but here goes:
How many photos is too much for a single iphoto library? Have people either encountered problems after reaching a certain threshold? Or are there people who have lots of photos with no problems at all?
I am in the process of trying to consolidate several iphoto libraries into one huge library. I say "trying," because I am running into problems with importing thousands of photos. The master library will have around 50,000 photos, although a good many of them will probably be duplicates (which is another hassle).
Because the consolidation is such a pain, I am wondering if it will be worth it. Is 50,000 photos OK for a library? What about 100,000?
Thanks for any words of wisdom.

In addition to Terence's suggestions make sure that in the Photos mode you have the Event titles displayed and only open those events you're working with. Having no Event titles displayed and all of thumbnails displayed will greatly slow down iPhoto whether it be 6 or 7.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

How many photos are too many photos for iPhoto? When do I need to upgrade to Aperture?

How many photos are too many photos for iPhoto? When do I need to updgrade to Aperture?

Hi Terrence, this is what happens, all too often when I click on something, sometimes it takes me 5 more clicks on the mouse while moving the cursor around to get rid of it. The one below popped up as I clicked on my junk mail.
The next one popped up when I was trying to get on to a site. This happens all the time. Don't know why it is happening. It happens on iPhoto, Aperture, everywhere I go, FaceBook...everywhere and at any time. So frustrating. I don't know if this is normal, but this was happening just before my last mac died a year ago.

When I record anything or share my screen on my iMac it only shows my mouse. What am I doing wrong/how do I make it show the rest of the screen too?

I am trying to record my screen on my iMac for a youtube video. I am using Debut (a screen recording program) and whenever I record the screen, the resulting video is always only showing my mouse movements and not anything else i.e the actual windows etc. This also happens when I share my screen on skype! How do I make the other parts of the screen show up and what am I doing wrong?!
Thanks!

Hello Ian,
No idea really, but are there other computers locally that you can test regular Screen Sharing locally both ways?

100% zoom is too small on screen

Hello, I'm using photoshop CC on amacbook pro retina. I mainly use photoshop for web design and when I open a document that is 300x200 px, the 100% view is too small on screen. Any ideas, It was this way on PS cs6 also before I upgraded. I just tried to delete the prefs file and restarted PS and it did not change. I have also tried to change my screen resolution to "best for retina" and it is still the same.
Steve

I'm sorry, I don't mean to be condescending. But the problem is you've paid extra for something that's actually an improvement, but now you don't want it to work any differently than what you had before.
You don't appear to understand how images and displays actually work. I'll try to provide an explanation...
Images are made out of pixels. Little squares of one and only one color each that when stacked in rows and columns together make up what we call an image.
Your display has the ability to display little lighted squares of one and only one color each (it's really a bit more complicated than this, but I'm trying to keep it simple). Stacked in rows and columns these tiny display sites make up your display screen. Before the Retina display, every square inch had roughly 100 x 100 of these display sites. Now (assuming a 15" Macbook Retina display) you have 220 x 220 of them in every square inch.
In order to fit so many more in a square inch they have to be much smaller. With me so far? Each tiny display site is 1/220 of an inch on a side, by definition.
When Photoshop displays an image, it sizes it per your guidance - you set the Zoom factor.
100% zoom - by definition - means that one pixel from an image will occupy one display site on the screen.
Can you now see how, since the display sites are much smaller on a Mac retina display, an image displayed at 100% will appear smaller?
Now here's where some additional magic comes in: The folks who programmed your operating system and browser realized that you would probably not like to see everything less than half the size it was, so they automatically use 200% (or more) zoom behind the scenes so that the pictures and stuff on web pages and application controls are displayed nice and big. This happens with older non-retina applications automatically as well - it's called pixel doubling.
To directly answer your question:
Set an appropriate zoom level in Photoshop to make the image as large as you'd like to see it and you will be fine.
It may help you to feel better to think, when you see the sharp edges of the pixels at zoomed-in sizes, that you have a display that's got such high resolution and is so accurate that you can see the edges of the actual pixels, while all the folks who don't have Retina displays are just seeing them blurred together.

Call screening too limited

As in the case of the Anonymous Call Rejection function that won't reject Unknown Name calls, I believe the Call Screening function is too limited. As a matter of fact, why don't we just reduce the confusion and put that function into the Call Screening function. We should be able to screen by the entry we see on the Caller ID display. (If we want to take the chance that we will block occasional valid calls for which the information just does not come through, that should be our choice.) Also, most people will need more than 12 screened number calls. We should also be able to manage any digital voice functions throught the Digital Voice Center website, including the lists of screened entries. Having the statistics on how many calls a particular screened entry is attempting would be useful, so that we can reuse that slot when an entry stops trying to call us. The main reason I converted to Comcast Digital Voice was that Qwest's call screening function wouldn't allow us to screen the calls that really mattered. I hope Comcast will learn from this example. I am sure many functions will be improved over time. I just hope we don't have to wait too long!

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not interested in the Call Trace feature, or the Call Screening feature (at least as JimWe indicated that Comcast defines Call Screening -- which is different than the definition of Call Screening that many remember). I simply would like the ability to not allow any calls through that are blocking their Caller ID from me. The features mentioned above are designed for extreme cases of phone abuse, not "screening" calls as you desire.
I currently use Grand Central, which offers traditional Call Screening (you can have calls go through to Voice Mail and then listen as the messsage is being left - then pick up if it turns out to be someone with whom you do wish to speak), call filtering, and selective call ringing. You can also have Grand Central automatically send an SMS (text message) to certain callers, depending on the filters you set up. That way I don't have to worry about the features offered (or not, as the case may be) by whatever phone service I use.

I have an older Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer these songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available

I have an oder Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer ths songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available?

I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

Screen too large for internal buffer

Hi,
2 days ago I have an issue when I execute "crontab -e" with my terminal maximized. The error say "Screen too large for internal buffer" and the term crash. But when the term isn't maximized the command works fine. I tried with teminal (XFCE), Konsole, rxvt... My screen resolution is 1680x1050. With visudo command I have the same issue.
¿Anybody have this problem too?
Many thanks

Hi guru's how many events is in classical & interactive how it trigered

hi guru's how many events is in classical & interactive how it trigered plz help me

HI,
Classical Reports Edit section
These are the most simple reports. Programmers learn this one first. It is just an output of data using the Write statement inside a loop.
Classical reports are normal reports. These reports are not having any sub reports. IT IS HAVING ONLY ONE SCREEN/LIST FOR OUTPUT.
Events In Classical Reports.
INTIALIZATION: This event triggers before selection screen display.
AT-SELECTION-SCREEN: This event triggers after proccesing user input still selection screen is in active mode.
START OF SELECTION: Start of selection screen triggers after proceesing selection screen.
END-OF-SELECTION : It is for Logical Database Reporting.
Interactive ReportsEdit section
As the name suggests, the user can Interact with the report. We can have a drill down into the report data. For example, Column one of the report displays the material numbers, and the user feels that he needs some more specific data about the vendor for that material, he can HIDE that data under those material numbers. And when the user clicks the material number, another report (actually sub report/secondary list) which displays the vendor details will be displayed.
We can have a basic list (number starts from 0) and 20 secondary lists (1 to 21). Events associated with Interactive Reports are: 1. AT LINE-SELECTION 2. AT USER-COMMAND 3. AT PF<key> 4. TOP-OF-PAGE DURING LINE-SELECTION. HIDE statement holds the data to be displayed in the secondary list. sy-lisel : contains data of the selected line. sy-lsind : contains the level of report (from 0 to 21)
Interactive Report Events:
AT LINE-SELECTION : This Event triggers when we double click a line on the list, when the event is triggered a new sublist is going to be generated. Under this event what ever the statements that are been return will be displayed on newly generated sublist.
AT PFn: For predefined function keys...
AT USER-COMMAND : It provides user functions keys.
Events keywords in Reports are
For Classical Reports,
1.Initialization - triggers when click on execute buton in the report program
2. At line-selection - it triggers only when you double click on the perticular line on the output
3. Start-of-selection - it triggers when you click on the execute button on the election screen
4.Top-of-page - it triggers for every page break like you will define some page size if it comes to the last line the top-of-page will trigger
5. At user-command - it triggers only on the action based on the user action
6.End-of-selection - it will trigger at the end of the report program execution'
7. End-of-page - it triggers for every end of the page that means you will define one footer for every report program, when the command reaches to the footer it will trigger'
8.At Pfn- it triggers based on the function keys tou pressed
For Interactive Reports,
9.At line-selection
10. Top-of-page during line selection - it will trigger only in the secondary list when it reaches to the new page

You should call Apple but you should get an email from Apple. I got one a few minutes ago and this is what they said about AppleCare+ :
Thank you for your recent iPhone 5 purchase at the Apple Store.
We would like to let you know that every iPhone comes with one year of hardware repair coverage through its limited warranty and up to 90 days of complimentary support. AppleCare+ for iPhone extends your coverage to two years from the original purchase date of your iPhone and adds up to two incidents of accidental damage coverage, each subject to a $49 service fee.
We noticed you weren't given the opportunity to add AppleCare+ to your iPhone. If you would like to extend your coverage for only $99, please reply to this email by September 21st.
After that date, if you would still like to purchase AppleCare+ within the first thirty days of receiving your iPhone, you can call AppleCare at 800-MY-IPHONE or visit an Apple Retail Store.
Thank you for shopping with Apple.
Sincerely,
Apple Online Store Team

I have an older mac and it wants me to update to itunes 10 but my mac is too old and I cant figure out how to disable the update

I have an older mac and it wants me to update to itunes 10 but my mac is too old and I cant figure out how to disable the update so I can use the store.

If Software Update is offering the update then it would be compatible with your model. Unfortunately, you haven't provided us with any information on your hardware that would enable us to determine if it really is too old.
If you really wish to disable the update alert then the next time Software Update opens, select the update in the list then select "Ignore update" from SU's Update menu.

Images appear fine in Photoshop cs6 and cc, but print too dark, and also show too dark in Windows picture viewer. How can I correct this? Is this a Photoshop setting issue or what?

Ok, look at your files in Photoshop. What is the profile assigned to them? You can find this out by going to the Status bar at the bottom, clicking on the right-pointing triangle and choosing document Profile from the list.
Then in Windows, go to your Control Panel > Color Management and add sRGB (if it isn't there) and select it as your default profile.
I hope that will work.
