    I am using my Droid RAZR M phone, and the messaging app that comes installed on it. Under app info it says version 4.4.2-15. I haven't downloaded any other messaging apps.
    I have also deleted ALL of my text messages from anyone & rechecked my voicemail. I still have "1 unread msg" and it is driving me crazy! LOL
    Thanks for your time!

  • Iphoto on my macbook pro has stopped working. It comes up with a message saying that the library is either being used by another user or it is unreadable. Any ideas why I should be receiving this message?

    Iphoto on my macbook pro has stopped working. It comes up with a message saying that the library is either being used by another user or it is unreadable. Any ideas why I should be receiving this message?
    "Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable"
    Offered solution doesn't work:
    Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command keys pressed. You can also try restoring your photo library from a backup.
    I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
    I can't download photographs from my iphone or my digital camera.
    Any ideas on how I can solve this problem?
    There is a possibility that when I went to update applications that I started to install Mavericks which I then interrupted and cancelled. I am not definite that this caused this problem but it was at about the same time as when this problem started.
    Many thanks,
    Ed

    I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
    You can't "copy" your photos to the "library manager", there is just no way to any such thing.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

    I have an iPhone 5 IOS 8.1.2;
    for the past 13 weeks I get the message that "this phone has not been backed up on the cloud". However, every night it is connected to wifi, phone is connected to power, and the screen is locked. Any idea why back-up is not happening ? By the way, I do not have the "back up now" option in Setting / iCloud.. Help anyone ?

    Try deleting an other icloud backup and see if it will automatically backup.

    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.

  • HT201342 My I pad mail account has "locked up" can't send or receive nor access my emails  - any ideas why and how to fix it!

    I can't access any functionality on my icloud email account on my I pad, all functions other than loading has locked up the last received email was a local government one. so I'm using my PC to send this. Any ideas how to unfreeze this account? Safari and all other apps seem to be working OK.

    Hi Jim,
    You may not have done anything but glitches happen when systems are old and if you are still on 10.3 perhaps it's time to update or upgrade a few notches.   Or are you on a different OS to your profile?

  • My facetime and imessage are not working! They were literally were working one minute and not the next!  I have reset (NOT RESTORED) my ipod, however these 2 apple apps are not working now, anyone have any idea why???

    My ipod touch seems to have a few issues, however my pre-installed and updated imessage and facetime were literally working last night, and after a breif break to charge battery (the back of the ipod was SUPER HOT) wasn't able to do facetime or imessage, and am STILL NOT today, what gives?? Any suggestions and advice?.

    Found the answer, at least for now!  Thanks to roryjt, and having to search through tons of post on imessage and facetime issues!  Changed the DNS on my ipod for my wireless network to 8.8.8.8   Not sure if it will work outside of my wireless network, but since its an ipod, not an iphone, I usually only use it in my place/on my network.  Below is a link to the thread by roryjt.

  • HT4864 The Outgoing Mail Server drop down box in mail setup keeps reverting back to 'None' - anyone have any ideas why?

    Hi
    I've been having difficulties with mail on my Mac and have checked all the settings.  I have three mail accounts, 2 iClouds (different acct names) and 1 bigpond account. 
    Whenever I change the outgoing mail server drop down boxes for the iCloud accts and save my changes, I go out of it then when I go back to the iCloud accts the drop down boxes for both iCloud accounts have reverted back to 'None'. 
    Is this of any relevance?  Is it 'normal'? 
    I've tried deleting all mail accounts and adding them all again but the same thing still happens. 
    I have been on Apple Support and followed the Mail Acct setup tutorial.
    I'd appreciate any help on this matter thanks.

    Thanks for your reply Winston Churchill.
    Because I'd been having problems which had recently been resolved by AppleCare Support I decided to go through all my accounts and check their individual settings.  I found a Tutorial on Apple support for setting up or verifying email account settings and found mine were different so I changed it.
    In any event I took your advice and just went with the option of automatically setting the iCloud accounts up and I haven't had anymore problems thus far - fingers crossed.
    I do however note that my drop down box in account settings still says 'none' for the outgoing mail server and the 'use this server only' check box isn't ticked despite being ticked in the 'verify account' info on the tutorial, so hence my question to the community - did this matter and what was the difference?
    I will let sleeping dogs lie I think and will see how I go.
    Many thanks for your help.

  • 9iAS is rolling back transactions..anyone has any idea why?

    I am involved in developing a medium sized J2EE Application Running on Oracle9iAS
    Develeopment Version obtained from OTN.(version 1.0.2.2a)
    The backend DB is Oracle8i RDBMS.
    It has Browser based web client.
    It is presently having 2- stateless session beans, with one bean acting as
    Session Facade(as per J2EE Blueprints 1.2)
    All transactions are container managed.
    Following observations are made while load testing:
    1. 9iAS Server rollbacks all the transactions when number of simultaneous
    users exceeds 45.
    Following are the Queries:
    1. Is there any restriction on the number of Concurrent Transactions on the
    9iAS Server Development version.
    2. Is there any restriction on the pool size of the Resource Manager(Data
    base in this case) on the 9iAS Development Version.
    3. Exactly what is the difference between the Development and the Proper
    Production release.
    4. Are there any thing to do with my RAM?

    I have no idea, but Mobo manufacturers are rushing new products to the market to be the first with 333, 400, what's next?  My strategy is to read the reviews but wait until the board (or CPU) is sub top and buy it when the bugs have been ironed out (or well documented in fora like this) and the price has come down.  Sorry, I am Dutch!

  • When i use a clipping mask, my photo loses contrast. Any idea why?

    I have one photo in a book that is driving me crazy. When I use my clipping mask, the photo inserts perfectly but loses its contrast and grays out terribly. I can't find any reason and it doesn't happen on any other photo using the same time of masks. Anyone have any ideas?

  • Can't send emails whereas I can receive. Any idea why?

    Hi,
    I can get my mails but can't send any. Mail offers me to try with an other server : smtp.free.fr:tt.hierry for exemple.
    I tried the solutions offered in a other thread ; changing port from 25 to 465, but with no success.
    I used to be able to send mails with the same parameters, using outlook under OS9. I'm now with OS10.4
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance.

    I too am having a Bellsouth send e-mail issue that has cropped up in the past couple of weeks (no changes in settings on my side). Don't know if it has anything to do with Bellsouth's conversion to AT&T or not.
    Basically, I can receive e-mail and send newly created, blank e-mail. However, I am unable to send e-mail with attachments or reply to e-mails received or forward e-mails received.
    I tried your suggestion of changing the port number to no avail. I confirmed my Preference setups with Bellsouth tech support and they say everything is configured OK. Thinking it might be Apple Mail, I downloaded and used Thunderbird e-mail client, but that exhibits the same problems noted above (similar message about problems with the STMP server or the server is unavailable or is refusing STMP connections. Again, this only happens with certain types of sent e-mails noted above).
    I am at a complete loss and don't know what to try next. Any suggestions????

  • I could not exit Safari so had to Force Quit but when I open it goes right back to the Yahoo home page that would not close. There was a little light under the Safari icon which told me that Safari was still running. Any ideas??

    I could not get out of my Yahoo home page in Safari on my Imac. I had to force quit but when i opened back up the little light under the Safari icon was still on and when i tapped icon I was right back to the Yahoo page which would not close. Any ideas???

    Quit Safari (by force if necessary.) Relaunch it by holding down the shift key and clicking its icon in the Dock. That will stop the page from reloading automatically.

  • My iPod won't sync with iTunes on my new laptop!  ITunes registers my iPod, but when I tell it to sync, the sync signal in the top (spooling) window flashes up for a millisecond, and then no more.  Any ideas gratefully received!

    Hi All, Really hope some of you techies may have suggestions for this as it's driving me nuts.  I actually have a new PC and a new laptop, and the same thing happens with both machines.  With my PC, the first time I plugged my iPod in, I was asked whether I wanted to wipe everything on my iPod, and reload as per the library on my new machine.  As I use my iPod in my zumba and dance classes, I was very weary of doing this before I had checked to ensure all my music was in my library, so at that point I replied 'No'.  Since then, i~Tunes registers my iPod, but will not sync to the library (and playlists) on my i
    Tunes.  It seems bonkers to have to go as far as uninstalling, then reinstalling, iTunes.  Is there really no other way to get round this?
    Any suggestions gratefully received!

    thought that it was possible to have the same iTunes library on any machine that was authorised, a kind of cloud-iTunes I guess. 
    That would convenient, but sadly it is not the case. Sorry!
    Either way your welcome and best of luck!

  • My Office for Mac 2008 disk has a scratch in the paper on the top.  When I load it in my MacBook Pro the drive makes a low pitched beep?  Can I repair the surface ( the bottom is fine and it is not cracked).  Are there any other options.

    I have a 2009 MacBook Pro which has been working fine.  Had to reformat HD and reload software.  Am using Mountain Lion which MS said supports Office Mac 2008.  When loading it the drive ran then began making a low frequency beep, then ejected the disk.  Upon inspection I see a scratch in the paper on the top of the disk, but there is no crack and the bottom surface is clean without scratches.
    I assume this problem is from this damage.  If so what can I do to repair it so it will work in the drive.
    If not what else would cause this problem.  Thanks for you help. Emom6

    DVD drives read the bottom of the disk, not the top. Smooth out the paper & try again.
