Why are the hotmail reply-to addresses incorrect?

I've setup my Exchange account for hotmail correctly as far as I can tell:
Email: fully specified address with [email protected]
Server: m.live.com
Domain: blank
Username: just my email username
Password: correct one
However, on both my phone and my daughters, the iPhone will not accept the setup and resolve the account correctly unless Ireplace the username with the entire email address. At that point, I can get mail.
The problem is that the "reply-to" address for all emails from the iPhone for this account is setup as: [email protected]@hotmail.com
Obviously people cannot use reply to any of my hotmail messages and not get an error. This is frustrating since these are my non-techie colleagues and friends.
I have been through several software updates and am using the latest OS (4.3.3). No joy.
Dave...

I have been using hotmail on iphone for a while until i finally merged all into gmail.
(means I keep two accounts but gmail polls hotmail and iphone only knows about gmail).
I have never faced such issue but maybe this is because of a slight difference in settings.
when configuring iPhone email account, use the Exchange account type.
in server I have never used "m.live.com" but rather "m.hotmail.com".
and in username field, always put my complete hotmail.com address (or live.com address).
hope this could help

Why are the download options no longer categorized as in flv, WMP, MP3 etc?

Why are the download options no longer categorized as in flv, WMP, MP3 etc?
All one gets from the download drop-down menu is:
(480p), (240p) or (360p) for example and the name of the video of course.
The way it is now, I cannot identify the type of video I am downloading as I could before.
Thanks!

Ubi,
Your assumptions are incorrect. Not all Youtube videos are offered in other formats; some are only offered in FLV format. Generally, only the very HD ones are offered in MP4. The format in which videos are offered are the decision of Youtube and/or the original poster of the video.
I opted to not pay for the VDH converter. There are FREE converters that will convert FLV to other formats, but they do not interface with VDH. Even the VDH converter is a 2-step process (in both manual or automatic mode). The converter that is included free with VDH will put an ugly icon/watermark on your converted video--every frame of the video. To find a free converter, just Google "free flv converter" (with the quotation marks).

Why are the CAPTIONS displayed smack across everyone's face?

Why are the CAPTIONS displayed smack across everyone's face on the screen??? I need the captions to HEAR better but I still want to SEE the show. When the text is displayed across everyone's eyeballs it's very disruptive. And I want ONE BUTTON on my remote to turn captions on/off; from a user perspective it is unnecessary to go through the menu settings everytime. Take a stand and do something about improving CAPTIONS!!!

The CC text is on the bottom third of the screen. I don't understand the problem. *shrugs*
Actually when I first replied, I checked the CC on the channel I was on and it was in the 'face' position the OP complained about. Now checked here on recording of Sprint Cup qualifying and it's at the bottom. Looks like some are not in the bottom 1/3 of the screen.

Why are the shut down times so various

why are the shut down times so various

Then again, it could be completely abnormal.
I found that after updating to 10.8.2, from 10.8.1, that my shutdown times went from a solid 3-4 seconds, to a wide array. For the most part, it takes an average of 14-20 seconds on 10.8.2 (with an rare occasional 3-4 second shutdown).
I have performed an erasure, and restore to 10.8.1 to alleviate it (kinda bummed, because I do like some of the new features of 10.8.2).
I then cloned the 10.8.1 install to an external Thunderbolt SSD, and then updated that drive to 10.8.2. Shutdown problem is then evident on that drive (even in safe mode, with no startup items running).
After looking at the console logs, there appears to be a OS component that is hanging. Hopefully 10.8.3 will address it, as I find many others are seeing the same thing (as well as the hanging OS component in their system log).

Why are the photos I copied onto a DVD from I-Photo not viewable by a Windows PC?

Why are the photos I copied onto a DVD from iPhoto not viewable on a Windows PC?

Because you did it wrong? It's hard to know unless you tell us what you did.
What should work:
Select the photos you want to share
File -> Export and export them to a folder on the desktop. Burn that to the disk with the Finder.
This User Tip

has details of the options in the Export dialogue.

Why are the apps on my IPad scattered across the whole thing and when I open them they turn to little rectangles in the corner of the screen and I can't even use them or tap on anything. Also when I turn my iPad it doesn't flip the screen over

Hi The next thing to do is to Restore back to Factory Settings this will get rid of any bugs . After Restore use same Apple ID /Password then you should get all your Apps & data back If you still have this problem make an Appointment at Apple Store . Cheers Brian

Why are the iPhotos not listed in the finder?

why are the iPhotos not listed in the finder?

There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Why are the threads start and terminate randomly?

Hi there,
I got the program below. I am wondering why are the threads start and terminate randomly? Everytime, I run the program, it produces different results.
I know that these four threads have got same normal priority (should be 5), and under windows there is something called timeslice. Then these four threads rotate using this timeslice. How do we know what exactly the timeslice is in seconds? If the timeslice is fix, then why the results are ramdom?
Thanks in advance!

public class MyThreadOne implements Runnable {
String tName;
Thread t;
MyThreadOne(String threadName) {
tName = threadName;
t = new Thread(this, tName);
t.start();
public void run() {
try {
System.out.println("Thread: " + tName);
Thread.sleep(2000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println("Exception: Thread "
+ tName + " interrupted");
System.out.println("Terminating thread: " + tName);
public static void main(String args[]) {
// Why are the threads start and terminate randomly?
new MyThreadOne("1");
new MyThreadOne("2");
new MyThreadOne("3");
new MyThreadOne("4");
try {
Thread.sleep(10000);
// Thread.sleep(2000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
System.out.println(
"Exception: Thread main interrupted.");
System.out.println(
"Terminating thread: main thread.");
1. Firstly, I set in the main function:
Thread.sleep(10000);
and I run the program it gives:
Thread: 1
Thread: 4
Thread: 2
Thread: 3
Terminating thread: 1
Terminating thread: 3
Terminating thread: 4
Terminating thread: 2
Terminating thread: main thread.
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 10 seconds)
Run it again, it gives:
Thread: 2
Thread: 4
Thread: 3
Thread: 1
Terminating thread: 2
Terminating thread: 1
Terminating thread: 3
Terminating thread: 4
Terminating thread: main thread.
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 10 seconds)
And my question was why it outputs like this? It suppose to be:
Thread: 1
Thread: 2
Thread: 3
Thread: 4
Terminating thread: 1
Terminating thread: 2
Terminating thread: 3
Terminating thread: 4
Terminating thread: main thread.
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 10 seconds)
Why these four threads start and finish randomly each time I run the program? I use Windows, suppose there is a timeslice (i.e. 1 second), these threads have the same priority. Then the threads should start and finish in turn one by one. Am I right?
2. My second question is:
When I change the codes in the 'main' function into:
Thread.sleep(10000); -> Thread.sleep(2000);
it gives me the results like:
Thread: 1
Thread: 4
Thread: 3
Thread: 2
Terminating thread: main thread.
Terminating thread: 1
Terminating thread: 4
Terminating thread: 3
Terminating thread: 2
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 2 seconds)
Run it again:
Thread: 1
Thread: 2
Thread: 3
Thread: 4
Terminating thread: 3
Terminating thread: main thread.
Terminating thread: 4
Terminating thread: 2
Terminating thread: 1
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 2 seconds)
I tried several times. The main thread always terminates before or after the first child thread finished.
My question is why it doesn't output something like:
Thread: 1
Thread: 2
Thread: 3
Thread: 4
Terminating thread: 3
Terminating thread: 4
Terminating thread: 2
Terminating thread: main thread.
Terminating thread: 1
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 2 seconds)
or
Thread: 1
Thread: 2
Thread: 3
Thread: 4
Terminating thread: 3
Terminating thread: 4
Terminating thread: 2
Terminating thread: 1
Terminating thread: main thread.
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 2 seconds)

How to explain my second quesiton then? Why the main thread always terminates before some of the child threads end? Thanks a lot.

Why are the application in the apple store are not compatible with the iPod touch 4g? Apple please realize there are some of us who still have the iPod touch 4g!

Why are the application in the apple store are not compatible with the iPod touch 4g? Apple please realize there are some of us who still have the iPod touch 4g! I just want to know.

Once I find the game i will truly screenshot that it states "not compatible for these models". I just find it RIDICULOUS that my iPod touch is in good condition and some of the applications that I want download sometimes are not compatible with my iPod touch 4g. I am not going to buy an ipod 5th generation if my 4g is still going strong since the year of 2010.

It may be in the process of making room. What version of OSX are you on? (That process can be excruciatingly slow on Leopard or Snow Leopard backups over a network; Lion has improved it greatly.)
A clue may be lurking in your logs. Use the widget in #A1 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting to display the backup messages from your logs. That should help you figure out what's going on. If in doubt, copy and post them here (but if the same ones repeat over and over, drop most of the duplicates).
If you can, connect via Ethernet; it will be 2-3 times faster.

Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5? I want to choose "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net" but Firefox won't let me.

In the previous version of Firefox one could choose to save tabs so that when Firefox opened, all the tabs from the previous sessions appeared. This was done in Settings > Options > General > Startup. In the menu for the "When Firefox Starts" one had the option for "Windows and tabs that where opened last time you accessed the net." in Firefox 5.0, this menu is gray and not clickable. Help, please?

''Why are the options for "When Firefox starts" NOT clickable in Firefox 5?"
Possibly you are not saving your "browsing history" which is what the session history is tied into.
'''Not saving History''' -- check your settings for '''Tools > options > Privacy'''', make sure you are not clearing more than just cache in "Settings for Clearing History"
* http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4928/clearcachew.png
* clearing your history at end of session, cache is the only one you would want to clear at end of session, if you don't want to lose things
There are several things that are related to private browsing and not saving History
* Private Browsing Ctrl+Shift+P
* You selected "Never remember history" in first drop-down of Tools > Options Privacy and all of the check marks disappear (See picture above)
* "Permanent private browsing mode" was check-marked under "Use custom settings for history" in the first drop-down of Tools > options > Privacy (see picture above)
