Unable to verify phone numbers | Free Data transfer limit | Free Azure Trial Subscription

Hello,
I have the following questions and suggestions:
1. Unable to verify phone numbers:
I am trying to signup for azure subscription which comes as a benefit out of my BizSpark subscription. But I can't use the phone numbers which I have already used to signup for azure subscription. I have contacted the Azure customer support team, they said
they can't whitelist my mobile numbers instead they can bypass the mobile verification if i provide them the Live id which I am going to use to signup for Azure subscription. Why this is so difficult whereas i have to create azure subscription for my members
for which i will be using my mobile numbers for phone verification.
Please do whitelist my mobile numbers so that i can signup for azure subscription without any hassle.
2. When creating a Virtual Machine it's better to have a total price based on the VM configuration (CPU Cores, Memory, Region etc.,) Because Azure pricing is still confusing and expensive. This will help the users to use the Azure within the limit of the
free credit.
3. Unfortunately the "Data Transfer Out (GB)" is not free which is really annoying and causing users to ignore the usage of the azure VMs inside their credit limit.  I have the following suggestions:
Data Transfer out (GB) should have a maximum free limit of 5-10TB per month or according to the data usage every month. This will make the users to use the Azure VMs.
It would be nice if "Standard IO - Page Blob/Disk (GB) & Standard IO - Block Blob (GB)" offered for free.
Azure subscription comes as a benefit for MSDN subscribers where they pay thousands of dollars so they should get something for the money they have paid already for the MSDN subscription.
The concept of the Free trial Azure subscription should be changed, it has to be completely free. Not every students/developers have the credit card to add for security and verification purpose.
As i already stated above if the Azure subscription has a certain limits on Data Transfer (Upload) and Page Blob / Block. The user will not be able to over use the Azure service.
Thanks

  • E52 unable to see phone numbers

    I am unable to view phone numbers when I browse contacts, I think this is possible as it was in the earlier models of NOKIA E- Series. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    That's correct. In order to give you the option to save more than just one number per contact, you now have to select a contact to see all the details. You can now save his mobile number, home number, email address, address, all under one contact, but you have to select the contact to see any of it, even if it is only a single number..

  • How to reset site after data transfer limit is exceeded

  • ITunes - iPod data transfer limit?

    This afternoon I tried to put about 2,500+ images onto my iPod Touch and iTunes converted them but during the transfer got to about 67% and failed. I tried again with 1,000 images and the transfer was fine. Usually I only move about 1,000 images at a time, but wanted to try a larger number.
    Is there a known limit to how much information iTunes can handle in the transfer? Is it a limit on the number of files, or the amount of data, or is there no such limit and this was just a fluke?

    i've heard of no such limit- and a search of apple's site produces no results.
    just wondering...
    once it reaches a certain amount full, does it stop at the same place everytime? like, if it will only fill to 5.6gb but not another byte after that? if so, it could be memory corruption.
    you could always do a restore, see if it can work out the bug by itself, but there might be nothing you can do if it is the flash memory itself

  • N95 crashes in Data transfer via USB cable, help?

    I ve been using my N95 with no problems for more than a year. Sometime ago I bought a new 8Gb Micro SDHC memory card, it was recognised by the phone and worked perfectly. But after the card was stored with data for more than 1gb, the phone crashes everytime I try to copy even the smallest file on the memory card through Data transfer mode via USB cable. Than I try to copy a file an error message is displayed in Windows XP and the phone reboots. The strangest thing that I can copy without a problem even a 500 mb movie file to the phone if the stored space on the memory card is say like 985mb, but after that it will crash even with the copying a 10 kb text file.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    No, its not the file system or Memory card itself - cause transfering a data through a card reader works fine and the phone recognize correctly everything transfered. Can it be the case of USB cable driver? May be I need to install it or go for a newer version? BTW, I removed Nokia PC Suite from my notebook - cause I dont used it much, but this program still used a lot of my PC resources without asking to. I belive that PC Suite is not nesessary for using the phone through a Data Transfer mode?

  • Faster ethernet data transfer time than 2ms

    Dear all,
    I'm using labview 7.1 based on a standard laptop communicating with a LabVIEW real time maching running the standard real time operating system. The two machines are connected through a dedication ethernet switch  (rated to 1Gbs), and both have ethernet cards (rated at 100Mbs or greater).
    The aim of my project is to have a fast distributed control scheme going. This basically means that small amounts of sensor data have to be transferred very quickly between the two machines. The aim is to then scale this to have more machines on the network.
    I use a UDP data transfer method, using the standard labview UDP read and UDP write vis.
    I would like to acheive a major frame rate of around 500Hz. The problem I have restricting me with this is the speed of the ethernet connection. It would appear that the vi wrtes to buffer instantaneously, but it is taking as much as 2-3ms for the data package to be sent and received by the other machine. This is a ridiculously long amount of time. I'm sending approximately 100bytes, so the time on the network should be 0.01ms. This would suggest the time delay is in the reading or writing of the data from the Ethernet card over the PCI bus to the program.
    Does anyone know why its taking so long? Do the UDP read vis only check the ethernet hardware every ms? I've taken great care to ensure that this is not a synchronisation or timing problem and I am certain it is not that. 
    I could really do with making this data transfer quicker as it is clearly the slowest part of the control loop. If anyone has come across this before and found a solution I would be grateful to know about it. I'm really hoping that I won't have to write something low-level in C or anything like that and try and integrate it with the code I have.
    Many thanks,
    Pete

    Finally found some hard numbers for data transfer rates. From this website. http://www.intellicom.se/ModbusTCP_overview.shtml
    Performance from a MODBUS TCP/IP system
    The performance basically depends on the network and the hardware. If you are running MODBUS® TCP/IP over the Internet, you won't get better than typical Internet response times. However, for communicating for debug and maintenance purposes, this may be perfectly adequate and save you from having to catch a plane or go to site on a Sunday morning!
    For a high-performance Intranet with high-speed Ethernet switches to guarantee performance, the situation is completely different.
    In theory MODBUS® TCP/IP carries data at up to 250/(250+70+70) or about 60% efficiency when transferring registers in bulk, and since 10 Base T Ethernet carries about 1.25 Mbytes/sec raw, the theoretical throughput is:
    1.25M / 2 * 60% = 360000 registers per second and the 100 Base T speed is 10 x greater.
    This assumes that you are using devices that can service Ethernet as fast as bandwidth is available.
    Practical tests carried out by Schneider Automation using a MOMENTUMTM Ethernet PLC with Ethernet I/O demonstrated that up to 4000 I/O bases could be scanned per second, each I/O base having up to 16 12-bit analog I/O or 32 discrete I/O. Four bases could be updated in one millisecond. While this is below the theoretical limit calculated above, it must be remembered that the tested device was running with a lowly 80186 CPU running at 50Mhertz with an effective computing power of 3 MIPS (compared to the 700 MIPS of a 500MHz Pentium). Also, these results are nevertheless faster than the proprietary I/O scan methods used to date.
    As low-end CPU's get cheaper, Momentum-type devices will chase the theoretical limit, although they'll never reach it because the limit will be continually pushed further away with 1 Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, etc. This is in contrast to other field-buses which are inherently stuck at one speed

  • Data transfer limits -- Confusing info

    When I click on the page on dot mac that tells me how much data transfer I have used, I see two numbers.
    For instance, one line says:
    You are currently using 260.1 MB of 5 GB bimonthly data transfer limit.
    Then below, it lists the date I opened my dot mac account (two days ago), and says, "Amount used: 1.94 GB"
    I can't figure out which number I should be keeping an eye on? I don't want to exceed my 5 GB bi-weekly limit.
    Can anyone explain? Thanks, in advance.

    The "data transfer" is how much bandwidth (from your limits) has been used for the bimonthly period.
    The 260.1MB number is the one to watch. To increase your monthly bandwidth limit from the standard 10GB's you need to purchase additional storage space.
    Doubling the default (1GB to 2GB) for about $50 a year moves your data transfer amount from 10 to 25GB's.

  • Data transfer cost

    If I exec a sql command outside azure on another server like
    sqlcmd -S sld51cxbyz.database.windows.net -U bleetmaa@sld51cxbyz -P Kj73Bh71D -d MigrationFromAX -Q "exec dbo.runAzureDbJobs"
    runAzureDbJobs is a bunch of procs who is merging two tables located inside azure.
    What will the data transfer cost? Does the procs executet inside azure or will the data transfer between the external server and azure?
    bleetmaa

    Hi,
    If you Work role and your sql database in the same region, you are not charged.
    see this:
    Is data transfer between Azure services located within the same region charged?
    No. For example, an Azure SQL database in the same region will not have any additional data transfer costs.
    If they are in different regions, you could be charged .
    Is data transfer between Azure services located in two regions charged?
    Yes. Outbound data transfer is charged at the normal rate and inbound data transfer is free.

  • Transfering phone numbers to car's phonebook

    ...So I picked up new iphone yesterday, paired it with my car (lexus gs450h) and phone numbers won't transfer. I've never had any problems with nokia phones... Has anyone found the trick to do it, or is it something iphone will never get?
    Thx

    I use a BlueAnt Supertooth 3 in my 2003 Honda. Pairing and directory transfer from my 3GS worked fine (as it did with the 2G iPhone I used until yesterday).
    Odd thing is that my wife's Motorola RAZR will not pair with the Supertooth 3 .. and Motorolas (like Nokias) should work with everything!
    Later: Take a look at this website --
    http://lexusbluetooth.letstalk.com/brands/lexus-bt/product/product.htm?prId=3510 6&serviceCorpId=0&filterCorpId=697&passedPaIds=
    It looks like Lexus bluetooth may not transfer directories from iPhones.

  • Determining Data transfer rate through modem in java

    Hi,
    I want to write an application in java which will communicate with
    connected modem of the system and it will detect the data transfer rate.
    I want to know how much data is transferring(upload/download)through modem and in a specific time how much data is transferred.
    I will give some max upload/downloading limit for a specific time and if data transfer exceeds that limit,it will show message.
    e.g if i fix max upload/download data transfer limit by the modem is say 10GB/20GB for a specific time span say for 15 days.Then my program automatically will start when the Modem will be connected and keep a log of data transfer(upload/download)and if data transfer goes beyond limit then it will show message.Also i would be able to see how much data is transferred for any specific day.
    I want to know this type of application is possible in java.If yes then
    which API's i need to use.
    If this type of program is available in some site in other language then also i will be helpful.Pl give the links.

    Hi,
    i want to do it in java only to explore the power of
    java.I agree with Abuse, Java is not designed for such applications. I'm not even sure if you can solve your problems with Java.

  • I'm running out of data transfer space?

    Anyone help me understand how this fills up, and what it's caused by? I have a QT short movie on my iWebsite, if it matters. Says,
    "You are currently using 3.82 GB of 5 GB bimonthly data transfer limit. Find out more about data transfer limits."

    Upgrading to the family pack still only gives you 1GB of space, no idea what the data transfer is, but probably still 10GB/month.
    From .mac help:
    Adding storage
    If you're a .Mac member, You can increase your combined email and iDisk storage to a total of 2 GB or 4 GB by purchasing more storage.
    Note: If you have a trial membership, email-only account, or Family Pack sub-account, you cannot increase your storage amount.
    The cost of upgrading your combined email and iDisk storage is determined by the time remaining in your yearly membership and the amount of storage you already have. For example, if you upgrade your storage space six months before your renewal date, you pay only half the yearly fee.
    The cost of the additional space is charged to your credit card. Your purchase will renew automatically as part of your account subscription each year. For pricing information, see ".Mac pricing" in the Membership section of .Mac Help.
    To add storage:
    1. Go to www.mac.com and log in.
    2. Click your member name on the .Mac tab, and then confirm your login.
    3. Click Buy More on your Account Settings page.
    4. Choose an upgrade option from the Storage pop-up menu, and then click Continue.
    5. Review your billing information and click Continue.
    6. Review your order and click Buy Now.
    7.
    8. Wait while your order is processed (it only takes a moment). Don't use your browser to view another page until you see your purchase confirmation.
    After you see your purchase confirmation, it takes a few minutes before your new storage is available. When you upgrade your storage, the additional storage you purchased is allocated to your personal iDisk. To learn about setting different storage capacities for .Mac Mail and your iDisk, see "Designating storage."
    Your best bet is to add storage, as this increases your bandwith as well,
    Upgrade to 2GB of storage = 25GB/month
    Upgrade to 4GB of storage = 250GB/month
    Follow the steps above (1-4) and it will show you the price for your part of the world.

    Hi, Kilted, I shall put it as below:
    Cancelled a contract on my Iphone and started another contract with  Samsung Note 2 on O2.  Managed to transfer almost all my data bar the content of my notes through drag and drop from itune to sKies prior to contract cancellation.
    When I later connected the iphone to the laptop to carry out an advise of going into itune to drag and drop the note content into dropbox from where I could pull into the samsung device, I was denied access into itune with my id , the same which has facilitated my access to this chat community.
    Question then: Am I not able to use itune again because of the contract cancellation?

    with my NOKIA 6233 I have exactly the same problem. I have not been able to spend much time on searching solutions, yet. I did, however, install the firmware update - this did not solve the problem unfortunately.
    Hi misternik,
    From looking on Nokia's support site and elsewhere, I already appear to be running the latest firmware revision available for this handset.
    However, further Googling indicates that there are two different engineering codes that can be used to reset a phone:
    *#7780# - Normal reset. (Replace all configuration files with default entries.)
    *#7370# - Performs a deep reset. (Reformat main memory and restore from firmware.)
    I'm not sure which mode the standard menu entry triggers; I might have a go running a deep reset to see if that clears the fault.
    In several contributions to this forum (but for other phones) I read something about a PC-suite mode on the phone. I do not have this mode. When I connect the USB cable I can only choose between DEFAULT, PRINTING and DATA STORAGE. Should there be a PC Suite mode ? Maybe this is related to the problem ?
    The 6300 handset presents a menu when first connected via a USB cable, and offers those options - "Nokia mode", "Printing mode", "Storage mode", or similar.
    Nokia mode appears to provide all of the Nokia-specific facilities, such as PC Suite synchronisation, so I don't think that's the problem.
    Cheers,
    David

  • Data transfer very slow on mac pro!! mac H/W unable to fit specifications.

    Hi,
    I am installinginternal disks on the quad mac pro and the transfer ratet in the mac are very slow!!!
    the disks are: barracuda 7200.10 disks, 500 GB. Sta II 300, max ST3500630AS firmware 3.AAE . throughput:300mb.jumpred off to get the 300.
    MAC tells that the QUAD MAC Pro equipment (2x2.66ghz dualcore intel xeon) comes with a 3.Gigabit specification/ 300MB/sec. (Intel ESB2 AHCI, speed: 3.0 Gigabit. AHCI version 1.10 supported)...
    And the benchmarks of the disk ST3500630AS show maximum 80MB/sec and a minimin of 37.3MB/sec, average 63.1 MB/sec. (anandtech tests).
    According to seagate.com the maximum sustained data transfer rate:78MB/s
    but in the mac the reallity is different: I am getting a transfer rate of 22MB/sec!!!!! . with out any application running and only making copy of the files!!!!
    that means that the mac is only providing only 1/3 of the expected transfer rate for the disks..
    so, is there a way that the MAC Pro gets all the normal transfer rate for those disks???
    Is the Quad MAC Pro hardware unable to get the maximum throughput of the disks???
    It seems that the mac is unable to get also the average transfer rate of those disks.. how to correct it???
    thanks a lot
    Alberto
    ps. just for fun: I am getting a faster transfer rate from an old power pc ,and old pc, and firewire 400 and old ide disks!!! (36MB/seg!!!)

    Yup.
    BThe latest Mac Pro are better, so if you have a new or 2 month old unit, Seagate should work, though I think there should be later firmware.
    Some would say those drives take the cake or woRSe.
    http://www.barefeats.com/hard91.html
    SEAGATE PUZZLES
    +Firmware version 3.AEE or later solves the slow sustained large block write speed issue for a single 7200.10 inside the Mac Pro.+
    +The remaining performance issue is slow small random read speeds for one, two, three or four drives. No matter how many drives you configure in RAID 0 sets, the average random read speed for combined block sizes from 64K to 1024K is less than 30MB/s (based on QuickBench 3 testing).+
    +Until Seagate fixes this, we can't recommend the 7200.10 series as the ideal boot drive for the Mac Pro (or Power Mac).+

  • HT1349 just got a new iphone. How do you transfer phone numbers from an old iphone to a new one

    How do you transfer phone numbers from a 3gs to a 4s?

    PLug your 3gs into iTunes, in the left panel right click on your iPhone and create a backup. After the back up is complete plug your 4s into iTunes, right click on it in the left panel and select restore from backup, select the backup file from your 3gs and that should load everything from your 3gs to your new iphone
