What's new app taking over from

Need help with this what's new up as I'm guessing this is what is causing issues and I'm going insane. How can this be turned off? Every time I'm using my phone it takes over in the background and then if I'm using my keyboard it starts writing random stuff. I'm also getting heaps of pop up including porn ones which is frustrating. Can this be fixed otherwise I'm taking it back so I can get a phone that works without this crap.

Hi,
What you are describing does not sound like our application "What's new". This app does not take over anything in the background and should not interfere with the keyboard and the app does not display such popups.
Could you try to boot the phone into safe mode to see if you experience this kind of behaviour?

    Appreciate your consideration on this issue. Thanks.

  • HTMLDB Newbie: ORA-01658 error when creating new app or table from sprdsht

    Hey there. I'm new to HTML DB and trying to create a new app (or even a new table) from a simple spreadsheet. I've tried both comma and tab delimited, but get the same error message every time. This is in my workspace on htmldb.oracle.com.
    "ORA-20001: create_table error: ORA-20001: Excel load run ddl error: ORA-01658: unable to create INITIAL extent for segment in tablespace FLOW_693"

    Scott,
    Thanks, but I don't think that's the problem. My workspace is 100Mb, and it's almost empty. I can install & run sample apps just fine, but not create a new app from a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet is small, to: nine columns and about 50 rows.
    Any ideas?

  • Issues with new bill payer taking over from old bi...

    Hello, 
    The old bill payer has moved out of my shared flat and I have taken over as bill payer. Two weeks ago I rang BT and signed up for a new contract. Last week I rang again to say that I was leaving BT and spoke to the 'retentions team' who negocitated a cheaper contract for me. So, I signed up for new a 12 month contract with BT. 
    I would like to know what information is connected to our account because the OLD bill payer has recieved confirmation emails (which should have been sent to me). He has cancelled the old direct debit and now the NEW contract is being threateneed to be cut off. The NEW contract still has the old bill payers name and should have my name instead. I have not been sent any confirmation letters with any account numbers or details of my bill breakdown and I have not been sent any forms to set up a new direct debit. 
    The people at the call centres do not understand my problem. They have corrected the account to have my contact email address but addressing me as the old bill payer. I am completely confused and would like to know what is going on!

    I understand that a new bill payer has to take out a new account (I googled the problem). I explained to the people in the call center what was going on and said that I needed to take out a new contract. It appears that ithe people in the call centre have made a huge mistake and I dont know what to do about it
    No security questions were asked, my housemate has not rang them once (and I am female and he is male!), I dont know the account number so theyre doing it all from the phone number. I could have been anyone. 
    I think I am still within the 14 day cooling off period from when I phoned customer retentions, so Im highly tempted to call them back and change providers completely because this is a nightmare!
    I also cant believe that a proceedure for this isnt in place (close old account, start new account) - there are so many shared houses in London!

  • In need of immediate help with FCP new user taking over colleagues position

    Good Morning. I am in urgent need of some help with a specific final cut pro question. My coworker and I have been working on a video project for our employer, a university. He ran the editor (FCP) and I ran the logistics of setting things up, keeping the contacts and scheduling, etc.
    He has left until late August and there are two major typos in his work which is posted to the web at the moment. I need to correct these typos and have less than a faint idea of how to do it.
    First of all, what is the file's last three letters? (.doc, .mov, etc...)
    Second, can I edit this as easily as I think I can? Just click in the text file along the bottom timeline and edit that way?
    How do I export the movie as an mp4 file after i have edited it.
    Anything else that would be deemed helpful is always appreciated!
    I really appreciate the help. I was never trained on this program because I never needed to be. Unfortunately, as it turns out, I did.
    Thanks for the help!

    You need to locate the Project file. Which will be somewhere in your colleague's User space.
    In the Finder, press command and F to activate the Find function.
    Make sure the following parameters are set:
    Search *This Mac* and Contents
    Kind is Documents
    Type the project name.
    The icon looks like this:
    Double click it to launch Final Cut Pro with the project.
    To locate the text overlay, click on the Timeline to make it active. Use the down arrow on your keyboard to jump from one cut to the next. The text overlay will look similar to this:
    Double click on the Text clip. This will place it in the Viewer (the left "monitor").
    Click the "Controls" tab above the Viewer and make your changes. Press Return.
    Clicking anywhere in the Timeline once more will update it.
    Make sure that no clips are selected and the Timeline is the active window.
    Go to the menu bar: File > Export > Using QuickTime Conversion.
    In the window that opens, make sure that Format is set to QuickTime Movie.
    Click the Options button. Look at the top of the next window.
    Does it say Compression Setting: H264? If it does, great.
    If not, click the settings button and choose H264 from the *Compression Type* button.
    At bottom left, drag the Quality slider to Best. Click OK.
    This brings you back to the previous window.
    Click on Size if you need to change something -there are a number of presets, but you can choose a custom size if you wish. Click OK.
    That window is dismissed and returns you to the Save dialog.
    Type a name and choose a destination for your file.

  • Serial number won't work on the lightroom i am trying to install on my new computer - moving over from an old comp. Thoughts?

    Hello
    I have got a new mac and have downloaded lightroom - entered my serial number (lightroom on old mac) - and it's not being accepted. Thoughts?

    I am beginning to think that this is the issue - i have downloaded the CC version - why are they not the same serial number. ALSO Adobe is really hard to navigate - i can't even find the stand alone version to download.
    The CC version doesn't use a serial number. Is activated with your Adobe ID and password. And it's all tied to your account being paid current. Other than that, the programs are the same. You have been provided the link to the standalone installation in the comment above this one.

  • What are safe Apps to download from the App store?

    I ask , because so many apps are causing freezing and crashes. Can people who are downloading and using apps that they have no problems with, List those apps for those considering to buy them?
    Thanks.

    +Can people who are downloading and using apps that they have no problems with, List those apps for those considering to buy them+
    Great suggestion!
    Many of the apps I have installed (free and bought) have had multiple updates since launch.
    This would seem to indicate that these programs have had issues (and hence the need for an update after only a few weeks).
    Some of these are : Crash Bandicot, NYTimes, Tetris, File Magnet, Sudoku unlimited, Tap Tap Revenge
    Seriously though, I dont know if these will cause the iphone to crash in the future... Its all hit and miss at the moment.

  • My Apple TV after latest upgrade is stuck on "what's new".. Help

    I have already posted on other forums and apple has not yet fixed... What is taking so long!  My Apple TV is constantly crashing and when it boots up is stuck on what's new..... Apple.... What's the hold up.. This product not important enough?

    EXACT same problem.
    Netflix, usually, will kick out after about 30 45 minutes, then will get stuck on "Accessing Netflix" for as long as you want to wait. We have to unplug the AppleTV 2, plug it back in. When it comes back up, we sit and stare at the "What's New" screen until the time we set for screen saver (5 minutes), kicks in, then we can control with the Remote App (lost the controller 2 years ago). If we use the Remote app, you can hear it clicking on things behind the "What's New" app until the the screen save kicks in, then you can "wake" it up and you will see the normal front browse page.
    Wait another 30-45 minutes, "Accessing Netflix", restart, wait at "What's New", etc... It is absolutely not our internet. Solid 24/7. I work at home connected to multiple VPNetworks throughout the day, lots of data moving back and forth, Never an issue.
    Beyond annoying. Agreed!

  • I've just updated my iPad to iOS 7.02 and I'm not able now to download new apps nor update the version of the existing ones.

    Hi!
    I've just updated my iPad to iOS 7.02 and I'm not able now to download new apps nor update the version of the existing ones. All of them are "waiting"... for ever.Even, when trying to download a new app, a "dratf" icon appears on the ipad, not the app's own icon...
    I've tried to switch off and on the iPad, disconnect and reconnect the itunes id... and nothing works. Even deleting an app, to download it again, doesn't work. It even doesn't ask for my password!!! (Stays with the small square with a circle around, the one that gets "bolder" while downloading... but it doesn't get bolder now. Just stay...).
    Any suggestions? I wouldn't like to reset the iPad, since I've got data in some apps that I wouldn't like lo loose...
    By the way, I can not either delete some apps with thos "draft" icons... even when the alert that appears when trying to do that is shown and select "ok".
    Thank you in advance!
    Best Regards,
    Carlos.

    Hi,
    Thank you, Once_was_lost, but it doesn't work either. I tried it yesterday as an option (I think you're referring to the options of those apps in the settings app).
    The problems are still here... I've been able to update some apps using the PC itunes (connecting the app to it), but all the other apps are still "wating", and I have two new strange things:
    * I cannnot remove the apps that are downloading (at least those that are supposed to be downolading ) . But I could remove one from the PC... and now there is an "empty line" in the "to update apps list".
    * Stranger: though I cannot download new apps or music from the store, I can do in-app purchases!!! In that case, I'm asked for the password and the item downloads. How is it possible?????
    I can download with the same user in the PC, in the iPhone... but not in the iPad .
    I'm getting mad...

  • Cannot sync iPhone with new apps using iTunes

    My question is I am unable to sync my applications or even music or videos using iTunes, I use different computers to sync my iPhone, and one in particular but that particular system too has greyed out everything on me in iTunes and doesn't allow me to sync either songs videos, photots or applications.... and gives me a warning that I will loose all the existing apps or songs on my iPhone and whatever songs, apps..are present in the iTunes library would be added to my iPhone.
    I want to keep existing songs, apps.. and also the new apps and songs from this itunes can it be done.
    Thanks for helping

    The iPhone can sync iTunes content (music, videos, apps, photos, etc.) from one computer only. Trying to sync iTunes content with a second computer will result in iTunes erasing the content from the first computer. However, non-itunes content such as contacts, calendars, mail settings, notes, etc. (anything in the Info pane) can be synced from another computer.

  • Search plusnetwork seems to be taking over my computer, and I don't know how to get rid of it?

    Any ideas on how to get rid of searchplusnetwork, it is taking over my computer

    Hi j.hanc,
    Can you give us more details as to what you mean by "taking over"?
    Did it steal your home page? If so, you should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]]. Your homepage might have been changed by a particular site. Sites like MSN, Yahoo, etc have been know to ask to become your homepage.
    There are steps in that article to reset your homepage preferences to default. I would try that first to clear out any strangeness. If that works, you can try setting your homepage again to your personal preference.
    Did it take over search as well? You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[Search bar]].
    If the address bar search has been changed as well, you might want to take a look at [[Location bar search]].
    If that doesn't work you should look at the article [[Preferences are not saved]].
    Finally, your issue may be because you've been hit with some [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Is%20my%20Firefox%20problem%20a%20result%20of%20malware?s=malware&r=0&e=sph&as=s#w_how-do-i-get-rid-of-malware Malware].

  • Print Manager App consumes over 99% of CPU and fans are constantly on.

    Hi!
    In Activity Monitor there is a Print Manager App taking over 99% of CPU resources and as a result, fans are on at full speed constantly, even if NOTHING is open. The user of this App is "_lp".
    I understand that "root" and "myname" should be the only users.
    The machine is a laptop that I use by myself (or so I though).
    Are the above signs that somebody/something got inside my machine? I have also discovered MacFUSE in my System Preferences and I know for sure that I did not installed that one.
    Any ideas or suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Force-Quit it. If it comes back on, post back and we'll see if we can figure out why.

    Those are the most common, but OSX has any number of internal users for various processes.

    Doubful, but anything's possible. A Google search says it's a developer tool. Could be associated with some other 3rd-party app you've installed.
    Is your firewall on? With the most restrictive settings?
    Has your Mac been left unattended?
    Do you need a password to sign on?
