Who you going to call????

51 hours later...still waiting... I am an At&T customer for 5 years
trying still to get activiated..in a series of phone calls.. the second csr (idiot)
asked me for my order #, i stated i didn't have one because I am already a
customer..he informed me he could do nothing without it....I stated no one else asked for it, only my cell phone number...he asked who i called..I said at&t. the
same number I just dialed..he then responded....I don't know who you called but
it wasn't at&t because all they want is the order number...the next csr told me that apple did all the activations and they couldn't help me.. the 3rd and final csr told me to go to at&t store and return the iphone and get a different phone altogether if i had to have a phone....so I have no phone and have used up my friends minutes on their phones,(to call at&t) and have to go away tomorrow without a phone..there really has to be a way to fix this!!!
MacBook Pro 2.0 Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   ipod nano, ipod 30gb iphone (not activated)

I had a totally different problem (perhaps?), but I got the same "helpful" runaround from AT+T.
Ask them any question three times, and you'll get at least five answers....

    Anyone can make them, just dial *67 in front of the # you're calling.

  • So what are you going to do about it?

    What are you going to do about these iPad2 shipping problems, Verizon? Your plastered dates of "3-4 weeks" has passed and we are now in week 5+ with nothing to show for. How is this problem going to be rectified? I'm tired of talking to phone reps that have no information because they can't see store systems, and I'm tired of retail stores that hide the screen and blurt off "it's in the warehouse system, but that's all the information we have right now." **bleep**!? You guys got my money over a month ago. Apple has been back to 2-3 week delivery estimate for at least a week now. I would love an answer. Maybe this board will be more successful than actually talking to you guys in person or over the phone. I would love a response, even if it's through private message or email. I've tried your other routes.

    On yesterday, I was extremely fed up with waiting as I just hit 4 weeks (ordered March 22nd), I told my CSR (in an email) to cancel my stinking order, demanded my money back, called the 800 number three or four times to gripe and complain and I FINALLY GOT SOMEBODY ON THE PHONE that cared enough to actually do something about it!  I'm sure all you have experienced the same thing where the rep on the 800 number is just briefly glancing at the order and then giving the company line.
    I pressed yesterday and told the rep I needed someone that would escalate this and give me answers because there was certainly a Black 32 GB/3G with my name on it and that someone just had to push the right d**m button to match it up with me. Well she placed me on hold for 5 or 6 minutes maybe even longer but it was worth the wait.  She told me that she did not have access to see anything with my order but that she got a floor supervisor because she too was concerned that my wait had been too long (going on 5 weeks on this Tuesday).  The Supervisor did have the magic access and was able to determine that my shipping date is Monday, April 25th and that I'll have it on two days Fedex delivery (April 27th)!!  I felt relieved to hear this and so was the CSR and she told me how excited she was to be able to provide me relevant information!  On Monday, I should finally have a tracking number and hopefully my package will arrive as promised.
    I will gladly return to this forum on Monday evening with an update but I must stress to each of you who were like me languishing on 4 to 5 weeks to make the same call to 877-807-4372 (regional Telesales) number.  Give them your location code and they can tell you which region you ordered from if you ordered by phone.  I live in Texas and my call was handled by the South region for Telesales and their number is 800-256-4646.  Please don't waste your time calling the general Customer Service number (800-922-0204)....you need Telesales and you specifically need your regional team that you ordered from.  Press the CSR to check with a supervisor to gain detail shipping information because it is their beyond the grasp of the CSR!!!

  • I have a friend who was going to sync her phone with my computer to get the new update..  how do i add her phone with out her losing everything on her phone and not getting all my info on her phone..

    i have a friend who was going to sync her phone with my computer to get the new update..  how do i add her phone with out her losing everything on her phone and not getting all my info on her phone..

    First, create a separate login on your computer for your friend. Do this BEFORE you do anything else. Next, make sure iTunes is up to date. Then:
    1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under Preferences>Devices in iTunes.
    2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Address Book, iCal) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
    3. Connect her phone, iTunes running, do not sync at this point.
    4. Store>Authorize this computer.
    5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on her phone will be in her itunes library).
    6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
    7. Right click again and select backup.
    8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
    9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore her itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding her contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
    You should be good to go.

  • Hey Apple when are you going to fix the problems with IOS 8.3??

    Hey Apple when are you going to fix the problems with IOS 8.3??
    Message is working weird.
    I don't have internet service when I'm away from my WiFi, because my phone won't use LTE now.
    Should I wait for a IOS 8.3.1 update or reset my phone to factory and start over?
    If there's a fix coming when will we see it?
    (I'm using iPhone6 plus)
    I've tried everything else to fix the problems I'm having. Soft restart. Hard restart. Used your chat line. Called Verizon. Reset network settings.... Help!!!!!
    I've posted on the Apple Communities about all this and I've sent in a couple of bug reports.
    I live up in the mountains and MUST be able to access my Verizon LTE for information if there is a fire! I'm in California!

    I have a Verizon iPhone 6 and am having none of those problems.

    Didn't they already have you do that? If you haven't, yes, you should restore your phone as new and test.

    If you are in a situation where you may need emergency information, organizations such as the Red Cross recommend things like this:

    Hello i am having a problem in my 4s that it dosent run any USSD code it goes on calling , can any one help me i am maqsood  from Karachi Pakistan

    Ok so I've done what you said and this is what it's come back ....
    I don't know that these are the errors , but they're the things which don't look right ...
    Throughout the shut down there is a recurring line ;
    It says ;
    Com.apple.launchd 1 0x100600e70.anonymous.unmount 301 PID still valid
    Then there are 2 more which I think are related ;
    Com.apple.securityd 29 PID job has I overstayed its welcome , forcing removal.
    Then the same with fseventd 48 and diskarbitrationd 13
    Oh and on Launchd1 : System : stray anonymous job at shut down : PID 301 PPID13 PGID 13 unmount...
    Then the last process says "about to call: reboot (RB_AUTOBOOT).
    Continuing...
    And stops ...
    Hope this means something to you ... Thanks again for your help so far :-)

  • When apple no longer includes an optical drive how are you going to burn an itunes playlist

    when apple no longer includes an optical drive how are you going to burn an itunes playlist

    Well, I don't want to buy an optical drive if I buy a new Mac without one. However, iTunes will not allow "burning" a playlist to anything except a real optical drive.
    Now, I am not running Mountain Lion so I don't know if iTunes for Mountain Lion allows it or not - could someone please let me know if it is possible.
    For me, on Snow Leopard, I cannot find a way to burn, create, duplicate - whatever you want to call it - a playlist to a virtual drive, a USB drive - nothing but a physical drive.
    It just makes me wonder if iTunes provides (will provide) an alternative when there is no physical drive included.

  • Who is going to take ownership of "download this video" not working? Mozilla, Flash or Real???

    Upgraded Mozilla Firefox to 3.6.4. Updated Adobe Flash to 10,1,53,64. Updated Real Player to 1.1.4. I am able to view videos but unable to see "Download this video" button on Youtube.
    The download this video button will appear in IE but no longer in Mozilla Firefox.
    There are lots of complaints/questions about this issue. Who is going to take control of this issue to resolve it? Is it Firefox's or Flashplayer's or Real's problem??? Some issues in this forum state that they have been resolved, but they have not.

    Hmm. Mime type is correct, but if you used the new ffmpegx to
    re-encode
    Clown.flv, did you remember to upload the new file?
    I ask because Clown.flv does not have the metadata that Flash
    requires.
    I ran it through the Windows only flvmdi program from
    http://www.buraks.com/flvmdi/
    and it works now.
    I don't know Mac, but if you can run Windows programs on it
    via Wine or
    some other means, you may want to look into it. Or look for a
    different
    Flash Video encoder program altogether.
    Meanwhile, just to get you up and running for this file, I've
    placed
    Clown.flv here:
    http://mboyd.com/test/Clown.flv
    You should be able to
    download it from there and upload to your site.

  • How are you going to backup your system?

    Are you going to backup your files to an external hard drive? If so what?
    Are you doing to backup your files to your 2nd internal hard drive? How?

    RAID is not a backup
    Yes… it is. Backup is by definition is "the procedure for making extra copies of data in case the original is lost or damaged". Nothing more.
    With a RAID mirror you have two or more originals which makes it a backup. Does it provide an archive or revision history of your data… no. But that's beside the point. It is a backup. Does it protect you against all circumstances that results in data loss… no. Again, that's beside the point.
    A RAID mirror is still a backup,
    RAID is protection from hardware failure. If a drive dies, you have a full working copy of everything... that's great.
    Not always true! Under some RAID schemes a member failure will result in complete data loss. RAID is not always about "protection from hardware failure".
    Only something that archives… [snip]
    Not everyone is prepared to and sometimes not even capable of having such a rigourous scheme as you do. For the vast majority of users out there who have no contingency plan what so ever the best solution is in fact a RAID mirror as it's a no effort and cheap solution. It's a solution that protects against a very specific circumstance. For a more complete protection you are right, other means should make up the rest of the package.
    While RAID mirrors shouldn't be a standalone solution it should be considered as part of a complete scheme.

  • Who is going to ATT's iPhone release

    So who is going early today for the release. I can't get any sleep tonight so I am just going to pull an all nighter and get to ATT at around 6 30. I really hope they have on left for me.

    i'm trying to figure out how early to go! I'm in Seattle. i want to go right now, LOL. i have no idea how lines are going to look - i've never done this before. Hoping most ppl have already gotten theirs but i highly doubt it. Is it silly to at like, 3am? i'm doing an exchange of my 3GS since i got it on the 3rd. woo hoo... i just need to get it taken care of by the 3rd. I've heard that even if they sell out at ATT, you can at least have them order one for you. I am guessing if i get there at the crack of dawn i'll be fine.
    Anyone have any ideas on how many phones ATT is going to have in stock? a friend of mine works there... can't she just, like, hold one for me? LOL i WISH
    i can't sleep anyway... might as well go super early. if ONLY this darn BATTERY would last a couple hours. grrr

  • ARe you going to ever get flashplayer on the iPhone?

    Are you going to ever get flash player for the iphone

    If you are getting your hopes up because of Jobs' retirement, I wouldn't. The major problem is that Adobe is unable to get the crap they call Flash to work with iOS and his retirement isn't going to have any effect on making it better for Adboe.

  • Dear Apple: WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO UPDATE TO A NEW IOS??

    I have IOS 5.0.1 (9A406) and basically there is no difference on battery life. It drains too quickly.  I would charge it to the full, and within an hour or two, it goes down to 84% just by using it occasionally(not even youtube playing or dowloading).  I basically have to charge my phone at least twice or more a day. (trust me I'm not a heavy user at all.  i check email, playing with apps time to time, a couple call a day, that's it). 
    Of course, I turned off Siri, notification, email push, etc, to make the battery last long but doesn't seem helpful at all.
    APPLE! WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO UPDATE A NEW IOS??
    I had been an iphone 4 user, and it seems that 4S is worse.  it is slower, battery drains quickly. 
    PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT because it's already about a time to release iphone 5??
