Very pleased and disappointed with WRT1900AC
I am very pleased, and very disappointed with this device.
I live in a three story townhouse, built using metal grids and plaster. The WAP is performing flawlessly on both bands, except for a couple of lockups when trying to reconfigure.
The problem is that the salesman gave me a bunch of dodo; He said:
1. the router supported Network Syslog; it doesn't support syslog.
2. the router supported ssh access; it does not
3. the router supported VPN; not
4. the router would support wifi access and configuration via mobile app; not
I pre-ordered the device before it was available because it sounded so good; I guess I should have known better; if it sounds too good to be true, it isn't.
I would have talked to Linksys support first or come to the forums. Salesman will tell you almost anything to make a sale. I tend to not trust salesmen. Always ask Mfr support or ask other users in the forums.
There is a mobile app for Apple...

I'm having multiple crashes on my new 5s. I can't connect to my Mac Pro!! Power cord broken. How can I fix this without connecting to my MacBook? Very frustrating and disappointing. Please help!!!
Hi there Rlong50,
You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

Cover flow very sticky and slow with garbled images
The images in my cover flow area are gibberish, literally random lines and colors and cover flow itself is very sticky and slow. Oddly, there are on occasion covers that are normal. Does anybody know what this is or is anybody having this issue? It was this way with 7.6 and it's the same way with 7.6.1, I was hoping it would get corrected.
Comment about my previous comment. It's not just slightly slow, it's incredibly slow as in press the slidebar down arrow and wait a couple seconds for 1 increment of movement slow. The only time is returns to a normal speed is when I go to a screen without cover flow. For example, when I click the 'all movies' link in the iTunes store. I had this problem with 7.6 and it still exists with 7.6.1.

Extremely frustrated and disappointed with my first Lenovo Ordering experience
I have been trying to place an order on Lenovos website for 1 month now and my order has been cancelled 4 times. The last order number being 4243470440.
To give a background of the situation, I am trying to order a Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro on behalf of my friend who does not have access to a US credit card yet.
The first time it was cancelled because the ship to address was a freight forwarding address. I did not know that Lenovo will not ship to one of those addresses.
SO I redo the entire order based on what the customer care person asks me to do and then it gets rejected again. So i call the helpline again and after the long wait I am told that the ship to address is different from the billing address. I need to call my credit card company to let them know this.
So I do the needful and place a third order after calling my credit card company first. This time it gets cancelled because apparently, Lenovos system now links my credit card with the freight forwarding address and has blacklisted it for life. So basically I can never order a lenovo product using that credit card again. Hence, I am advised by Pablo, an extremely rude credit card service agent to reorder using a different card.
I do the needful for the 4th time with a different credit card and to my surprise it is cancelled again. After another long hold and call, I am informed that I as a person am working for the freight forwarding company! (Who the [ Moderator Edited per forum rules.] are they to determine who i work for. I am ordering a computer not asking for keys to the US treasury). So I am blacklisted and the only way I can order a lenovo product is if I wire the money to them before hand. This is [ Moderator Edited per forum rules.]
I am a normal guy trying to order a computer for my friend and have been put through so much humiliation and torture. I am extremely disappointed at Lenovo and dont think I ever want to buy anything from this company ever.Hi brajeshdamani,
I do not work for Lenovo. This is a peer-to-peer forum, provided by Lenovo so that members may share their experiences and help each other.
Perhaps Lenovo may be using a third party company to verify credit card purchases. In most cases these companies determine if a customer's credit card is good and if the customer has sufficient credit to make the purchase. If an item is going to be shipped to someone outside the US, this would make ordering even more difficult. Recently in the US we have seen articles in the news about stolen credit card information. The verification companies are aware of this; thus the problems customers are experiencing. You are not alone. It is really a shame that honest people have to deal with inconveniences because of criminal activity.
I don't have any suggestions for you to resolve your problem, except that perhaps you persist in contacting Lenovo to explain the situation.

Totally confused and disappointed with JSC!
Hi,
I invested my own money in JSC, so that I can convince my Department to use it. My first "real" application after doing the tutorials is a real disaster!
I used the "Performing Inserts, Updates and Deletes" to do it. In other words, I basically only changed the data source and tables. Great was my disappointment when the application would not work correctly at the point "Testing your application - Part 2". See my topic "Button update_action not setting value in Sessionbean 1" The responses I got were all good - but none worked! What I want to know is, why is all the advice I'm getting different from the code in the tutorial? Is there someting I'm missing? What am I doing wrong? Is the code in the Tutorial wrong, or incomplete? Why should the code I use in my application be different from the Tutorial? Please help, urgently!
Regards,
JohanHello Johan,
I can understand your frustration. What has
happened is that JSC doesn't support switching
datasources during development very well.
This is because of the JDBC datatype mapping,
JDBC url differences.
If you change the database and datasource it's safest to
regenerate the code. The URL, JDBC datatypes
will be generated based on the database schema.
You can try to fix the generated code, but not encouraged.
If you're using the same database, and change the
datasource (in the Server Navigator) there are a couple
of places where you'll need to fix the code.
One place is in the Page1 bean constructor
the other is in SessonBean1.
You'll need to change the JDBC url which is
generated.
I hope this helps,
John

Lightroom, Assertion Fail, and my utter frustration and disappointment with Adobe
Right now it is after 3AM and I have been trying for hours to get my very expensive Adobe software to work because it decided break even though I had not changed anything since it all worked correctly last weekend.
I have been using Lightroom since it initial beta and rely on it to do my job as a photographer. I upgraded to 5.4 the day it came out, which has not been several months ago. It all that time I have not had any problems. Specifically, a week ago it was working just fine. In case this is relevant, despite having full Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CS6 licenses, I went ahead and signed up for CC while the photographer bundle was still available. Anyway, tonight I came home after photographing and event and went to start the import process only to find that Lightroom decided it wanted me to register again, and then did two "Assertion Failure" popups before completely failing to work. This happens if I just launch the application or click on an individual catalog to open it. My deadline which requires the processing of almost 800 photos is what is now this afternoon.
So far I have:
* Run through the entire Adobe provided steps listed here: Error: 'assertion failed' | Update | Windows
* Tried running the application as admin
* Rebooted the computer
* Uninstalled and reinstalled 5.4 using CC
* Uninstalled and installed 5.3 manually
* Manually installed the 5.4 upgrade on top of 5.3
* Tried Chatting with a "Customer Service" rep. This name is completely false. As a customer, the service I need is for the software that I both bought and subscribed to to work when I need it to work for my job. The person I was selected to chat with told me that they had no way to help me with any sort of technical issue and I would need to call tech support starting Monday at 5AM. This is completely insane. Why are they even available on the weekend if they can't solve technical issues? Who sits around on Friday night with issues important enough to contact support immediately that aren't technical in nature?
This is made even more fun by the fact that it would appear all or most of the Adobe website is offline right now.
At this point I am at a complete loss for how I am suppose to make this work. Any suggestions for solutions other than was I have listed above would be greatly appreciated. If some technically capable Adobe person happens to see this, I would be more than willing to provide any debug output that might be helpful.jgoforth wrote:

If you see a message about rebuilding your thumbnail cache
Over time, iPhoto can become less efficient at accessing the photos in your library. Rebuilding the cache can help iPhoto display your photos faster, and can also resolve issues such as thumbnails that appear to be dimmed or missing.
After upgrading iPhoto, you might see a message asking if you want to rebuild your thumbnail cache. You can choose whether to do it then or come back to it later.
Important: You should back up your iPhoto library before rebuilding your thumbnail cache.
Hide
To rebuild your thumbnail cache:
If iPhoto is open, quit it.
Hold down the Option and Command keys while you open iPhoto (click the iPhoto icon in the Dock).The Rebuild Photo Library window opens.
Select at least these two checkboxes:
Rebuild the photos’ small thumbnails: This option rebuilds only the small versions of the thumbnails, such as those that appear in the photo browser when you are creating a book or slideshow.
Rebuild all of the photos’ thumbnails: This option rebuilds all the thumbnails associated with a photo, including the small ones and the thumbnails that appear in a photo album or an Event.
For information about the remaining checkboxes, visit the iPhoto Support websiteand search for “rebuilding the iPhoto library.”
Click Rebuild.Rebuilding the thumbnail cache may take several minutes. -
Frustration and disappointment with Word Mole
I happen to live in the same CANADIAN city (Waterloo, ONTario) that Blackberrys are made. I love word games and was excited that there was a pre-loaded word game on my new Blackberry, Word Mole. Well, you can imagine my HORROR (and shock and disbelief) when I spelled colour (Canadian version always includes a 'u') and the little monster mole laughed at me. I figured it must be an error so I tried "favour" and then 'flavour" and I couldn't submit either of those either. WHAT THE F????
How can a product that is MADE IN CANADA not recognise (see- Canadian spellling with an 's', not a ZED) it's own native (well, not THAT native, but you know what I mean) language???
What this means is that I constantly fail to advance b/c my time runs out because I (rightlfully so) default to the language I know. 'Favor, and color and favorite" are foreign words to me. What I don't understand is why there is no Canadian option? Why is everything geared toward American spelling? I feel betrayed and RIM the betrayor!
Also, the screens are all in American language too. I can't get my "favourites", I can only get Favorites. I don't like it and I want it CHANGED!!jgoforth wrote:

Please, the battery of my mac air does not last more than two hours, it's been over 30 days I sent for technical assistance and nothing! I am very disappointed with the mac air, I had a very different expectation of apples products!!!
Maybe the problem is not your MB Air......
Try these:
Make sure bluetooth is turned off if you're not using it.
Set your screen brightness to 4 bars.
See what's loading in your login items. Delete the ones you don't need.
Open Activity Monitor - under All Processes see what's using most of your CPU's resources.
Highlight the ones with the highest %CPU and hit quit process.
Remember that when Apple says that your battery should last 7 hours, they tested it just browsing the web and not have anything open in the background and screen is set at 50% brightness. -

Disappointed with IOS7, i had organized my music library as per the Genre and now im unable to hear all the songs of the same genre like in the earlier versions. The options of "all albums" and "all songs" are missing in this version of IOS. Help Please..
It would be nice if you told others the steps you've tried and/or how you used to have your setup.
Anyway have you tried tapping MORE this will then bring you to
the selection-list of Audiobooks, Genres, Compilations & Composers.
Selecting Genres gives you a list of all your music split into genres which was set within the Music downloaded via iTunes or uploaded from CD or which you may have set yourself.
Then you just select the Genre you want:
If certent songs are not correctly gategorised you may need to go into iTunes and reselect via Get-info
>Info>Genre and change it there. That way you should end up with all songs of Jazz or other in 1 place. -
I am very disappointed with iTunes. I have 1200 songs and I can’t play them. I try to play them and before one song finisha song starts playing. This then results in hearing two songs at the same time.I will like to know if you can fix this. I feel like listening with the iTunesplayer is useless.
I don't know man I too hope apple will do something this new I-tunes blow my top lost my whole tune!!!

I am having a problem with my cs6 running very slow and when i save i am getting an error message that says, "This document is bigger than 2 gb (the file may not be read correctly by some TIFF viewers.) please help
wen6275,
It looks like you're actually using a camera or phone to take a photo of your monitor.
That's not what is commonly known as a "screen shot".
It looks like you're on a Mac. Hitting Command+Shift+3 places a capture of the contents of your entire monitor on your Desktop; hitting Command+Shift+4 will give you a cross-hairs cursor for you to select just the portion you want to capture.
I'm mentioning this because I fear I'm not construing your original post correctly when you type "I am working with a large files [sic], currently it has 149 layers, all of which are high resolution photographs", so I'm wondering if there's some similar use of your own idiosyncratic nomenclature in your description of your troublesome file.
Perhaps I'm just having a major senior moment myself, but I'm utterly unable to imagine such a file. Would you mind elaborating?
Maybe you are looking for
