"Ventured" Out of the Garden--AGAIN....

Had a pre-approval for another QS and Venture from Cap. One. so I figured I'd better jump on it as I had to pay a rather large tax bill using my original Venture credit card recently and my UTIL is going to go up when it reports soon and I wasn't sure if the pre-app would still be there. However it did put me over the $3K spend quota. Snagged another $15K limit (same as my original). Was hoping this one might back at least $20K--but I'm good with it for right now--those 2 Ventures are still my highest limits to date. Didn't do the 2 for 1 for a second card because I'm pretty sure QS would have only been a $5K approval and that wasn't worth tanking my AAOA even more-at least to me it wasn't anyway.. AMEX Blue Cash Evdy-($10K) ll Capital One Venture VS-($15K) Fidelity AMEX-($5k) ll Discover It-($6.5K) ll Wells Fargo Visa
-($6K) ll USAA Cash Rew. Visa-($13K) ll Chase Sapphire Prefereed VS-($5K) ll Capital One QS Visa Signature-($7.5K) ll OCCUBeaver Visa-($1.5K) ll AMEX Green-(NPSL) ll Macy's store card-($2.8K) + $10K special accts.ll WalMartMastercard/Synchrony-($2K) ll Synch/BP Store/Gas-($3.5K) ll Sears/Citi-($2k) ll Pay-Pal Smart Connect/Synchrony-($3.5K) ll Best Buy/Citi-($4K)ll Sportsman's Guide Visa-($7.5K) ll Coldwater Creek M/C-($5.5K) ll Credit Union Visa-($2.5K) ll FNBO AMEX-($10K) llBarclay Rewards WMC-($2.5K) ll Chase Freedom-($1.5K) ll Camping World Good Sam Visa-($2.75K) ll Union PlusMastercard/Capital One-($5K) ll Total Rewards Visa-Comenity-($2.5K) Lowe's/Synchrony-($10K) Cap One Venture VS-($15K) INQS:EX=8 EQ=10 TU=4

Congrats, time between this app and your venture approval?  How many Cap 1 cards did you have before, and now?

    So you have 6 new accounts this year? We had you planned to join?That's just 6 INQs with EQ. I have a total of  14 new cards since January. I closed everything but my CapOne Visa before I found this site. I never knew my FICO nor did I pull a free annual credit report until this past November. What's the advantage of the PenFed? Was there a thread going on that I didn't see?14 cards since January would probably get you labeled an Egyptian. They decline often for "pyramiding debt" ie too many new accounts.That's why I'm in no hurry. I have PSECU which is a good CU in my area. I'll see if PenFed is worth it in a year when the cards have all aged and the INQs are a year old.

  • Tip Toed out of the garden, got 1 of 2 apps approved

    Been in the garden since March after getting approved for a Barclays NFL card. Not too bad with inquiries, 8 on each of the 3, and 3 of those inquiries was when I was looking to refi my mortgage last fall. I app'd for Discover It last Oct, just shy of 4 years post BK7 discharge. Turned down flat, rejection letter cited only BK and past delinquencies (I've never had a DS card, so I didn't burn them in BK, and I have no delinquencies on EQ) . Recon was useless. Fast forward 8 months and the last 3 weeks I've received a weekly invitation letter w/code from Discover. I shredded the first two thinking "Yeah, right - I'm not wasting another HP with these guys!" When the 3rd invite letter came in the mail yesterday I started thinking "Well, maybe they really do want me", and took the plunge and app'd. It said "You're approved", but then asked for more info on employment and home ownership, and then it gave a message "Your card, credit limit and other important information will arrive in 5-10 days". I've never had a CC approval that didn't tell me the CL and APR, and was thinking " I'll bet these jokers are giving me something like a $500 CL which will make the 1 yr. 0% APR and double cashback useless!" So I look up the backdoor # here and called, ready to tell them "Thanks, but No thanks" if I got less than $2k SL. Rep was very nice, and told me I was approved for $4k SL and 13.9% APR after the first year of 0%. I didn't even try to recon/barter, just 8 months after being turned down flat I'm happy with that.  Then, flush with success I made a mistake - I app'd for a Sallie Mae MC, a little too soon. I've had a Barclays Rewards MC since 4/12, SL of $1200 and auto CLI'd to $5700 with regular usage. Got the Barclays NFL card in April for the sole purpose of using the 15 mo 0% BT to pay off a $4k Prosper loan., that 65% util sure dinged my CS, but made financial sense as I'll payoff the BT much faster @0% than I would have with Prosper @11%. The app said "Under Review", so I call the Credit Analyst - super nice lady and we had a good conversation, I even mentioned the MyFico forum as a place for very useful info. She said she couldn't approve SM "at this time" as my NFL card is considered too new to rate. I told her I've budgeted payments to get the NFL balance down under 30% util by December and asked if that would be a good time to reapply for Salie Mae. Rep said "With another 6 months of payments on the NFL and paying down the balance that much we'll look forward to hearing from you again".  So, a good little app spree - redeemed myself with Discover, and learned a good lesson on how to keep Barclays happy to keep extending more credit to me. Oh, and I asked the Barclays CA if 2 accounts with just under $11k combined CLs was too much for them to give me a 3rd card and CL, she said "Oh no, for our good customers we can approve a 3rd card and more credit".

    Congrats on Discover again

  • Stepped out of the Garden for an unexpected 10k approval.

    Applied for an AK USA Visa Card several days ago. Had heard nothing so I assumed it was a no go. Got a call today stating I was approved for the Siggy Card with a 10k limit at 9.89% APR. That will be the lowest APR on any of my cards although I dont currently carry any balances. Back to the garden I go. Hopefully more will power this time.

    Very nice - congrats!!

  • Out of the box initial setup locked up - how to re-run it?

    Unboxed our iMac 27" yesterday and as it was going through the first time setup, when it asked to take a picture to associate it with the user account I created, both buttons were grey-ed out and couldn't take a picture either.  I let the computer sit for a good 15 minutes in case it might recover, but it didn't.  I held the power button in long enough for it to power off and to my suprise, the setup didn't pick up where it left off or resume.
    Since I had already created a user, I could log in and it seems that all is well.  Should I bother attempting to re-run setup - I've seen some posts on how to boot into another mode and delete a file to get it to think it's new out of the box again.
    What steps were missed?  Was it almost complete?

    I'd call AppleCare (# in manual) and let them walk you through it. It's free and they are very friendly and courteous.

  • PE withdraws halfway up and out of the desktop

    I use Adobe Photoshop Elements for Mac, version 11.0 and run the program on Mac OS X Yousemite version 10.10.2.
    To view photos on TV, I connect with converter from USB to HDMI.  In Mac System Preferences -> Displays -> Arrangment, I choose Mirrow Displays.  In PE I choose View Full Screen.  So fare so good.
    It's after the show has finished and the Mac is disconnected the problem occurs. PE withdraws halfway up and out of the desktop so that I do not see the display bar (Media, People, Places, Events) or other choice.  PE don't fit the screen.
    I try to use System Preferences -> Display, and change to other Scaled, than close and restart PE. PE will then appear in a large format. By changing Resolution to Default Display, PE appears normal, but as a small window on the screen. When I try to drag out PE with cursor, PE withdraws halfway up and out of the desktop again.
    What do I do wrong?  Or is there bugs in Adobe Photoshop Elements?

    First step, have a look at the original install disk and see if it's under the optional installs.
    If not, download Pacifist, (by Charlesoft it's shareware). Then open the packages on the install disk and extract it that way.

    Hello Neygotsole,
    Having your device malfunction can certainly be frustrating. After reviewing your post, it sounds as though your device is experiencing multiple issues. I have located an article that can help with software issues. Have you attempted to restore the device to factory settings without restoring from a backup? Test the issue on a new installation, and make sure that it works. Then use the same article to restore from your backup to either verify it still works, or isolate the issue to the backup itself.

  • When i try to open week cal it loads and then closes after a few seconds...I have checked for updates, turned the phone off then on, closed out of the app and then opened it again...nothing works!  Any suggestions?

    When i try to open week cal it loads and then closes after a few seconds...I have checked for updates, turned the phone off then on, closed out of the app and then opened it again...nothing works!  I have thought about deleting the app from my phone and then reloading it again but I worry that it will delete all my calendar info???  Any suggestions?

    To reset, press and hold the Home and power buttons until the silver apple appears.
    I would delete the app, reset the phone and then download the app again. Your calendar information should be stored on the phone as Week Cal uses the Calendar app information.
    Best of luck.

  • HT3224 I am new to Mac and started transferring data from my PC to my new Macbook Pro.  Connection was lost once I started and now my Pro is stuck on the 'Transferring Information' screen.  How do I get out of this screen to attempt the connection again?

    II am new to Mac and was trying to transfer data from my PC to my new Macbook Pro.  The connection was lost however and now my Pro is stuck on the 'Transferring you nformation' screen.  How do I get out of this screen so I can attempt the connection again?  Is it safe to force shut down of my Mac and will it still prompt me through all the setup process again?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If your Mac and PC are connected by Ethernet, unplug and plug that cable again. If not, you have to turn off the MacBook by holding the Power button.
    In the next startup, try to transfer your files again. It's important not to interrupt the transfer process, because in most cases, you will stop it and you won't be able to resume it

    The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
    Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
    However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
    Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
    I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

  • All of my purchased ringtones and songs dissapeared out of the blue. How do I get them back without having to buy them all over again?

    Out of the blue, all of my purchased ringtones and music aren't displayed anymore on my iPhone.
    I went to iTunes to see if they were stored there, but the downloads folder also appears to be empty. If I try to select a ringtone I've downloaded before, a popup appears saying that I've already purchased that item and asking if I want to cancel or buy. If I click on buy, then I pay for the item again even if I already have it! The only place I can still see my purchased items is in the iTunes application on my computer, but even though I've already selected sync, the ringtones and songs still won't appear on my iPhone.
    What happeneded and how can I get them back without having to pay for them all over again?
    Thank you!

    I'm having the same problem on an iphone 4s running iOS8; when i updated to iOS8, all my ringtones went missing, and when i got a £50 gift card for christmas (2014), I purchased some songs from the iTunes store on my iPhone. i downloaded songs from paramore, panic! at the disco, coldplay, and imagine dragons, over wi-fi, and they went into my iphone music library; but when i re-opened the music app a few days later, in a place where i had no wi-fi, except for my 3G phone signal, some cloud icons appeared next to my newly purchased songs, telling me to re-download them from the cloud, when i haven't even deleted them. this has happened twice now, and i had to use up some of my 5GB data allowance to redownload them from the cloud. This is annoying and i need to fix this issue ASAP.

    Hi Jbierrie,
    There is an issue with Photoshop specifically related to recent updates in which causes the licensing to revert to trial after a certain number of launches (typically 2-3).
    The current workarounds are to either:
    - Sign in with your Adobe ID again every few launches
    - Uninstall Photoshop CS6 and then reinstall it but don't install any of the updates
    The issue with the updates is planned to be fixed in the coming weeks. Sorry for the inconvenience.
    -Dave

  • I bought a album and it has 4 incomplete  songs on it how do I get the re-download them with out having to pay again   ?

    i bought a album and it has 4 incomplete songs on it, how do i re-download them with out having to pay again

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.
