Waiting on my laptop and not happy
A little background. I purchased a G700 laptop and mouse on 12/20. I received a confirmation email from Lenovo stating that both would ship and I would receive them by 12/24. 2 hours later I received an email stating my mouse would ship and my laptop wouldn't ship until 12/24. No big deal....I can wait. On 12/23, I looked at the status to find that my mouse shipped but my laptop had "hold for customer" on it. When I chatted online with one of your support people he was clueless. What had happened was when you shipped my mouse Lenovo didn't release the authorization on my credit card. I use this card for online purchases only and keep a low balance on it so I can keep track of items and purchases easily. When you tried to auth my cc for a second laptop, while the first auth was still on there, it declined. He didn't understand this. I then called and sat for over an hour before I got a lady. She understood what I was trying to say and "sent it up the chain" to be handled. Great! Until I checked the status on 12/26. It showed I wouldn't receive my laptop until 01/30!!!!!! THIS IS COMPLETETLY UNACCEPTABLE!!! I spoke to someone online again on 12/29 to see if there was anything that could be done. She told me that she was going to email the warehouse/manufacturing to get a firm ship date and I would hear from her in 24-48 hours. Well, it's 01/02 and no response from her. So I called and spoke to a guy today to get a "more firm ship date". He said unfortuneatly 01/30 was my receive date and there was nothing he could do. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, I was placed on hold for 5 minutes and he came back on and explained there was nothing that could be done. Your "supervisor" couldn't even talk to me!!!!!! PATHETIC! I work in a division of customer service for an international company and if a customer tells you they want to speak to a supervisor, they had better well speak to a supervisor. Your supervisors make the big money to handle irate customers like myself, not your customer service rep! Now back to the shipping issue. Having to wait until 01/30 for my laptop is unacceptable. And what's worse is it was due to your error! When I spoke to the guy today he offered me 7% off of my computer....pathetic! I was actually insulted by that offer. I must have this laptop by 01/15 or I will have to go elsewhere at this point. Something I don't want to do.
Im not sure how you have set this up but it seems like it needs to be erased and the process started again.
This is how to set it up on multiple devices:
If you’ve already set up iMessage, turn it OFF on all devices. Wait for a while before proceeding to step #2.
Now, activate iMessage on the iPhone. Only the iPhone. Configure the options if you must. But make sure that the number and email are correct and marked with a tick. Under Start Conversations from, check the email ID that you used for iMessage.
You should now wait for a while and may be ask your friend to send you an iMessage just to make sure things are working till this point.
Once things work normally, set up iMessage on another device. Say, the Mac. By doing this, you are setting up the iPhone as the “master-device” while the rest of the devices work as subs.
On Mac, make sure the conversations start from the email ID.
Repeat the process for other devices, one by one and check if iMessage gets sent to all devices correctly right after you setup the devices.

I had Infinity installed last tuesday so I'm 7 days into the service and I'm really not happy with the download speed I'm getting, before I ordered when I put my postcode in it told me I would get 33.9 Mbps, I havent hit over 24 Mbps yet, going wired isnt an option as the equipment is over the other side of the room although I did try it wired and it made no difference on the speedtest, although I'm not sure if I needed to change any settings going wired but I'm pretty sure the difference between wired and wireless wouldnt be a 9mbps difference, I tried to download a film like my mate does on Virgin Media and it said 18 hours to download it where as he does in less than an hour, truly shocking this is, so can anyone tell me of my options if I'm unhappy with the service 7 days in to my contract.....

Why does wireless work for one laptop and not the other?
I have two laptops:
1) MacBook: 10.4.8, Airport Exteme (Firmware 1.0.46)
2) G4: 10.3.9, Airport Extreme (405.1 (3.90.0.p18)
I have the two machines sitting right next to each other in my apartment. Machine #1 has full wireless signal strength. Machine #2 barely has any wireless signal. Neither is running Interference Robustness. Any ideas why one would work and the other would not, or suggestions as to how to debug this problem?
I have tried stopping and restarting the Airport Extreme card on machine #2. I have also tried power cycling machine #2. This does not fix the problem.
A little more history: for a long time I was having problems with machine #2 dropping the wireless connection. As part of trying to work around these problems I turned on Interference Robustness on machine #2. This fixed the dropping signal problem, but left me with weak signal strength. I shut off Interference Robustnes but ever since then the signal has still been weak on machine #2.
Mac Mini Duo 1.66 GHz, 2 GB Mac OS X (10.4.6)The base station uses a single channel which all clients must use to connect.
Have you checked the antenna connection into the card? Many people are surprised about how far the wire is actually supposed to be pushed into the card. Compare the connection with the photos in KB 108039, Properly attaching the antenna on an AirPort Extreme Card. -
Pretty much as it says above. I don't want to loose all my old songs that weren't downloaded and am wondering if there's anyway that I can make sure there safe to connect it to a new laptop with no music on at present.
Any help or advice would be great :-)
ThanksThanks for trying, no it did not help. The article describes getting song from apple devices to PC, not the other way around. I will try ringing tech support tomorrow.
Thanks anyway. -
Why does my IPOD synch with my laptop and not my desktop?
I have tried since Christmas Day to get my Daughter's IPOD to synch with my desktop, with no success. I took it to the local Apple Store and they said they restored it and it should work fine. When I tried to connected it again, it still did not work. I put in a new USB 2.0 PCI card, and still had no success. I decided at that point to try and synch it with my laptop which worked. It only has 1.1 USB ports; Both machines are running XP SP2; I can see no other reasons why it shouldn't synch with the desktop. Can any suggest a hint or a fix. My Daughter is starting to lose her patience, that I can't have!!!!!!

Have you tried restoring your iPod from a previous backup in iTunes? If so, what about factory defaults new iPod?

Please Help! HDMI sound playing from laptop and NOT the TV
Synopsis: Installed Windows 8.1 on new SSD on my Toshiba P75-A7200. I stalled all the drivers from Toshiba website. Everything works except now my HDMI audio does not play on TV play from laptop. I reinstalled the original v. of Intel HD Graphics 4600 and Conexant Smart Audio HD drivers. I also looked in the volume control panel and sound playback options looking for HDMI setting with no luck. Has anyone encountered this? OR have an idea how to get my audio working with HDMI cable to TV?
I checked different HDMI cables to be sure it wasn't a bad cable.Satellite P75-A7200
If you're determined to set things right, you can always restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media and upgrade to Windows 8.1 this way
If you failed to create recovery media, obtain it from Toshiba. Scroll down to Get Recovery Media here
See the instructions in the section Restoring from recovery media, which begins on p. 60 of the User's Guide.

You View ????????????????????????????/ I have had no indication of this either by post email or an actual old fashioned phone call (remember those) whats happening BT ???????? WE ARE YOUR CUSTOMERS its good to talk

I'm dreading to phone overseas to get the information methinks I shall (reluctanly) go back to sky
Just what is happening ???? i was in hospital for most of august and sept so I'm unaware of most of the news as I was on a ventilator
Hi, YouView is a new service that BT is a partner in. Have a look at their website for more information:
www.youview.com
You can buy the box through BT and you will get all the benefits of YouView and you will also have acces to the BT Vision content. It looks like BT will be fully adopting Youview next year and will be replacing their boxes with Youview boxes.
Whilst YouView is good, I have it and love it, it is currently not for everyone. If you like sport, you cannot currently get the Sky Sports and ESPN channels through BT on the YouView box, but this will be available next year.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask. -
I cannot open any.exe file in my laptop and not even cmd.
I cannot open any .exe file on my laptop running windows 8.1 pro. When i click on it it asks how do i want to run it. I cant open command prompt, task manager and even registry editor. In the file explorer, when i navigate to any exe file it shows "%1"%*
in the file type column. I think it is a problem with the registry. Please help me.Hello,

not sure which operating system i am using. whatever because it messed up my ipad. Try to follow directions from forum about connecting to store and being in recovery mode. I was not able to connect just using the home button, had to use home button and sleep/wake button at the same time. finally recovering my ipad, but very unhappy that updates messed it up. If updates are not any good, don't put them out there.
Most likely Digitizer of Front Screen is broken or its Connector to the Logic Board has come loose. You could try a Restore with iTunes on computer. Fix is press connector back to Logic Board. Or, replace entire Front Screen Assembly. Or, take to Apple, if Genius decides it needs Out of Warranty Replacement it is $149 at the Apple Store for iPhone 4.

Have just got BT Vision, I signed up a month ago but it just came (as scheduled) today to co-incide with cancelled Sky contract.
When I got the initial marketing blurb, was told could get Sky Sports but because we are not in an infinity area, now told can't get this; ok so disappointing. Now on day one when I take a quick look at the BT website I find out about YouView - this actually would suit me far better as there is HD there and although it does not have Sky Sports, I now don't have that with BT Vision now anyway. So why wasn't YouView offered to me when I signed up?? I am now contractually committed to BT Vision so no way of changing I presume???
Not a great first day....Today is the official launch day for BT YouView, so you wouldn't have been offered it before today.
You won't be able to change now i'm afraid. -

I'm trying to install Flash on my laptop and not getting anywhere
I've tried several different times to install the flash player on my laptop for the 1st time and when I get to the part of saving the file I click save and nothing happens after that. The same happens when I try to install Reader I click save and nothing happens. What is wrong here? Please can someone help me with this?
The installers are probably in your downloads folder. You'll need to run them.

I downloaded Mavericks and not happy with my MacBook now
There are a couple of issues I have had since downloading Mavericks.
Firstly, its heavily impacted on my graphics, its hard to explain, the items on my desktop breakdown into what looks like 'white noise' on a TV, their is ghosting behind applications that I open, when I open an application on top of another application when I minimise the top application the one beneath has turned to white noise.
Second I often work on my MacBook until I leave for the train, I then just sleep it and re-open on the train. Before installing Mavericks this was fine, now more often than not the MacBook shuts down as soon as I unsleep it. The only way I can prevent this from happening seems to be to shut down all my applications before leaving the house then reopen them when I get on the train - not very convenient.
Third, its no way running as fast as it was prior to downloading Mavericks, I thought this new OS would improve the functioning of my MacBook, but its way worse and I am getting quite frustrated with it.
All in all, at this stage I regret switching to Mavericks. If anyone can help I would be gratefulCheers Pete,
