Can't get paypal to work? This may help.

Well, 24 hours after my 32 GB ipod touch purchase, I am not an apple fan. I had a very typical experience, I have windows 7 32bit on a Dell XPS laptop M1530, I downloaded a fresh version of iTunes (9.2.1.5), I upgraded the ipod to newest version (iOS4). Why did I spend so much time getting this stuff to work? I did get it to work, but support was useless and blamed microsoft (in fact I didn't do all the steps correctly).
Anyway a few things I figured out. Before you begin, you need a valid paypal account. You also need internet explorer. This doesn't work on Chrome for whatever reason. You can go to start menu -> Default programs to change web requests to open up IE instead of chrome (then just change it back when you are done with paypal activation).
Also, you need to have activated the computer for use with itunes. Why that's not done when you install is a mystery. From the menu bar at the very top of itunes, go to the store menu, and select 'activate my computer'. Note, you can only have 5 active computers, but you can deactivate all of them. The only way to deactivate individual computers is to have them connected to the network and with itunes, and just go store -> deactivate computer. If the computer is not activated the process will also fail when paypal redirects back to the itunes app.
Next, create/update your itunes account. When you get to the payment options, you select paypal. That launches a web browser. Again, chrome didn't work for me. You go through the paypal logins. When you are done you should get two warning messages, one to display only secure or all content (hit 'no'). The other warning mentions that you are launching an app from a web browser. Click allow (or yes or whatever).
The process should bring you back to itunes purchase setup. Scroll down to the bottom, hit 'done'. To verify, I log out and log back in again, and look up your account info. It should have paypal. Note, once you get this set up, you don't really have to screw with it again I think.
The other tidbit I have is that once you download the apps (click the price tag on the app) you need to sync your ipod. If you click on your ipod on the left menu, then click on apps, select all and click apply on bottom right of screen. That should work.

Also, you need to have activated the computer for use with itunes. Why that's not done when you install is a mystery.
Because you don't need an iTunes account tio use or install iTunes.
You cannot authorize the computer until you have an account because that's what you are authorizing.
Note, you can only have 5 active computers, but you can deactivate all of them.
You can have 5 computers authorized at any one time. You can only select Deauthorize all when you do hae 5 authorized and you can only do it one time per year.
Next, create/update your itunes account.
Again you cannot "activate" (which is authorize) unless you have an iTunes account. So you cannot authorize iTunes and then create an iTunes account.

Hi,
Is there an iPhone involved ?
If not, what happens if you remove the Apple ID on the iPad and then set it in Airplane Mode (allow a couple of minutes at this point) followed by re-adding the Apple ID ?
What, if any error messages are appearing on the Mac when you try to launch the App or Login to the iMessages server ?
Is the Apple ID linked to an iCloud account ?

I'm can't get iMessage to work with all my Apple devices.

So i cant seem to get iMessage to work across all my Apple devices. My wife and I use the same Apple ID but have different phone numbers. Is there a way to get all our messages on our shared devices and our personal messages on our phones? (iPad, iMac, MacBook Pro: Shared)

Hi,
I have this set up with one Mac and two iPhones (Not Multiple Macs)
I added the Apple ID to the Mac for iMessages.
I then added the Apple ID to the first iPhone.
I accepted the pop ups on the Mac so that the iPhone was Listed in Receive At (you might have to Restart the App on the Mac to trigger this).
I then added the Apple ID to the Second iPhone and again accepted the pop ups in the Mac.
IF this is what you think you did but it is not working remove the Apple ID from both iPhones
Place the iPhones in Airplane mode fro a few minutes to Break with the server.
when back in normal mode and in Settings > Messages check the iPhone number is ticked and active.
(Send a Test message to the Apple ID (Mac) to check)
Add back the Apple ID if the test works.
Restart the Mac version to trigger the pop ups and Accept.
Repeat the set up with tests for send iPhone.
I have never set this up with one ID on two or more computers but it should work.

Download the demo and activate with your serial number:

Be sure to follow the special instructions.
You will also probably need to run the un-installer first to clean up the old files.

Can't get breaks to work - Is this tool intuitive??

I've got a fairly simple report that lists company data, 1 per line, and I need to have a page break when the state changes. The report already exists without the state grouping and I don't have a clue how to get this to work. I've added the new group to the data section but can't seem to get it into the layout. Tried frames but can't get one to encompass the other groups/frames. It's always is placed at the same level as the others. I've tried move/send back/front in every conceivable combination. Is there any good documentation to help on this? I've spent days on this and am getting nowhere - and very frustrated. Seems this kind of thing should be a no-brainer for a report writer.

Hi Andy,
It sounds like you may need to turn off confine mode in order to have the back to front work. If you have Tools->Preferences->Runtime Settings->Run Debug turned off, then any warnings that you might get trying to do this with confine mode turned on might be surpressed.
In general, what I would try doing is turning on flex mode and using the frame select tool to grab the top most repeating frame and everything in it and move it a bit so you have some room to work in. You might also want to zoom in. Then create your new repeating frame so that it's bigger than the old repeating frame but smaller than whatever frame is enclosing it and move it to teh appropriate level. You'll probably have to turn confine mode off to do this. Once you have set at the right level according to the object navigator, you can still use flex mode while moving everything back to the correct place.
For getting the page break, just put a maximum of one record per page in the property palette of the new repeating frame. Hope this helps and it's not just a rehash of the stuff you've tried. I've done this before and it worked for me, so hopefully it will work for you too!
Cheers,Toby

I can't get inline to work for this simple function.

I thought I understood [Inline] but my app says otherwise.
I've been using [Inline] with great success for a few months now; however, this quick snippet of code won't [Inline] properly. I know this because I've ran numerous tests with the function looped 100,000 times and I'll get around 400ms with [Inline] and 400ms without [Inline].
I could just be really sleepy and frustrated, but I thought I'd try and learn so that I wouldn't make the same mistake again. So here are the guts of the function in question:
var shared:int = 0;
var length:int = goodRegions[index].length;
for ( var i:int = 0; i < length; ++i ) {
     rect = goodRegions[index][i];
     mRect.x = rect.x + masterX;
     mRect.width = rect.width;
     if ( mRect.x + mRect.width > sRect.x ) {
          shared = i;
          break;
for ( var i:int = shared; i < length; ++i ) {
     rect = goodRegions[index][i];
     mRect.x = rect.x + masterX;
     mRect.y = rect.y + masterY;
     mRect.width = rect.width;
     mRect.height = rect.height;
     if ( sRect.x + sRect.width < mRect.x ) { break; }
There are outside variables I didn't include because they are passed through the function parameters.
I would greatly any help I can get understanding what I'm doing wrong.

Ah you know what, I left out a line:
for ( var i:int = shared; i < length; ++i ) {
     rect = goodRegions[index][i];
     mRect.x = rect.x + masterX;
     mRect.y = rect.y + masterY;
     mRect.width = rect.width;
     mRect.height = rect.height;
     if ( CheckForCollisions( mRect, sRect ) ) { <--------------------------- missing from original post
         if ( sRect.x + sRect.width < mRect.x ) { break; }
Since posting I've actually played around with the removal of the extra function and it started to work properly. I don't understand why my Collision check was making the function ineligible for [Inline]...
But maybe this would help:
[Inline]
private final function CheckForCollisions( rectA:Rectangle, rectB:Rectangle ):Boolean {
return (( rectA.x < rectB.x + rectB.width - 2 && rectA.x + rectA.width > rectB.x + 2 ) &&
( rectA.y < rectB.y + rectB.height - 2 && rectA.y + rectA.height > rectB.y + 2 ));
Is it inappropriate to use an inline function within another inline function? Oh and I'm multi-threading my physics code, so this is being ran on a separate thread/worker.

TS4268 My iPhone 4 iMessage has stopped working so I switched it to off and switched it back on but stays on activating iMessage for a long period of time and it says it is u successful to log in, how can I get iMessage to work again?

Can some people give me advice on how to fix my situation? My iMessage wasn't working yesterday so I turned it off and back on and it's said it was activating iMessage and now it is not logging in and it comes up with log in unsuccessful and I depend on iMessage back I use it on my iPhone an iPad and it doesn't let me use it on my iPad either.

It is probably still worth while taking it to an Apple store for a possible OOW replacement and let them make the decision, as it was broken before the OP took the back off.

iMessage used to work until iOS 6 came out and now it doesn't work on my ipad. I have tried several times to reset iMessage and reenter my apple id and tried all three addresses, .me, .icloud, and phone number but it fails. I have my ipad tethered to my iphone and it is passeing other data with other apps but iMessage will not work. Anyone have a clue how to fix this?
