Why cant i make calls when out of state?

when I go out of state, and try to make a call I get a voice message. Is there a setting for this?

    msindypendent,
Yikes! Let's make sure you are able to make phone calls when you leave home. I would suggest on what Tidbits provided. Also, what kind of device are you using? What voice message are you getting when you try to call out? Please provide me with some details.

    why cant i make a FaceTime call from iMessage on the iPad

    Because you make a FaceTime call from FaceTime on the iPad.
    On a Mac, you can start and iChat conversation from the Messages app and maybe that is what you are talking about. iChat can still be used in Mountain Lion in order to have a face to face conversation with other Mac users that are not running ML and therefore do not have FaceTime.

  • How do I use my iPhone 4 to make calls when it is in the Dock?

    Hi,
    This might sound silly but how does one use the phone to make calls when it is in the dock?  Is there such a thing as an on-screen dialler or some such device to help dial the number.  I just have the headphone and mic jack - that is fine.  Just need a dialler. Thanks.

    If you're using a G3, you can't.
    If you're using a G4 or G5, check sites such as Amazon or eBay for a Mac OS X 10.5 DVD.
    If you're using an Intel Mac, skip 10.5 and buy 10.6 from the online Apple Store.

  • Black Update - Can't Make Calls when transferring ...

    Since the Black Update was installed on my Nokia Lumia 521 in early April 2014, I cannot make calls when traveling from one cell coverage area to another on T-mobile's network without shutting the phone off and restarting.  
    I've replaced 3 phones, a SIM card, done multiple soft and hard resets and done a system recovery through a USB direct connection to the computer, all to no avail.  I suspect that this Black Update also caused my battery to prematurely malfunction and fail.
    I have been in contact with T-mobile advanced support multiple times.  I've contacted Nokia Technical Support, who did not acknowledge the problem, but directed me to do the Software Recovery Tool and USB installation, which I have done several times.
    I found another user who had this same issue in the www.wpcentral.com forum.
    This appears to be a Black Update software issue and not a phone hardware or T-mobile network issue.  I had no problems whatsoever with the Amber Update.  I have had the phone since August 2013.
    I have no problems in multiple coverage areas with a Google Nexus 4 or a BlackBerry 8900.
    Please advise how to fix the problem.

    Here, we are an end-user-to-end-user discussion board, all we can provide it solve usual pitfalls and create workarounds. For a network issue like yours, I recommend to keep-up with T-Mobile USA because they are the only one how are able to diagnose this and they have channels to report this to Nokia. Every other support channel won’t be as good as them. If they refuse to help, you have to find another Nokia Lumia 521 with Lumia Black, and test your subscription with his device.

  • Why doesn't U-verse have out of state local channels?

    Dish Network has out of state local channels. Why doesn't U-verse have out of state local channels?

    That Don Guy wrote:
    I can think of a couple of reasons.
    First, if U-Verse had to carry every channel everywhere - even if it was just limited to its service areas (so, for example, there would be no local channels from Seattle available) - imagine how many channels that would require.
    Second, and probably the real reason, is something called "broadcast exclusivity."  The short version is, each network affiliate has an area over which it is supposed to be the only station that shows a network's programs - for example, viewers in Los Angeles should be able to get ABC shows only on KABC.  This makes sure that people in that area will watch that station - and, more importantly for the station, its local commercials.  I am under the impression that there is a similar rule involving syndicated programming - for example, two different stations in the same area can't show Wheel of Fortune or repeats of Modern Family.  (For some reason, I have seen this implemented differently on different systems; for example, when I lived near Travis Air Force Base, about halfway between San Francisco and Sacramento, I got both cities' stations for all four major networks on Xfinity.)  This would be almost impossible to enforce if every household got every channel, as it has to be handled on a city-by-city basis.
    There's also the problem of time zones - I don't think network affiliates in the Pacific time zone would like it if people could watch the network's Eastern or Central time zone affiliates and see the shows three hours earlier.
    And I haven't even mentioned sports exclusivity yet.  Remember, the NFL has a rule where the city hosting a Sunday afternoon game cannot show any other game on TV at the same time (there used to be exceptions when the game was blacked out, but the NFL has gotten rid of its blackout rule for the 2015 season).  I seriously doubt the NFL would allow U-Verse to get around this by letting every U-Verse subscriber watch their choice of evert CBS and Fox station.
    That reminds me of a particular situation from 2001-2002 that I was in:
    My local FOX affilliate used to show Simpsons repeats at 5 and 5:30. There is a channel out of Cleveland that was available on Time Warner Columbus (later Mid-Ohio) that would also show Simpsons repeats at 6 and 6:30. Well, about 3-4 counties east of Columbus, it was the same TW lineup as in Columbus (with an exception to have two NBC affiliates, Columbus and a nearby city), but they had the full two hours of Simpsons. Travel to Columbus and you only got the first hour.
    The odd thing? That second hour started more like 5:58 PM and the blackout infomercials didn't come on until 6...just enough time for me to tell what episode it was.
    And since the episodes were all basically picked by the local station, sometimes there was a case of "We just saw that episode a few days ago!"
    The Cleveland station would sometimes dig a little "deeper" into the archives which was nice.

  • Why can I only make calls when using speakrphone?

    I can only make phone calls when using the speaker phone or headphones.  The receiver can hear me although I can not hear them.  I have only had the phone since Sat, have checked volume levels and tried adjusting during a phone call too.

    Try making a call and turning the volume up using the buttons on the side of the phone. If that doesn't work, your iPhone is faulty. Take it to the nearest apple store or back where you bought it!

  • Why does the phone spontaneously make calls when stored away and locked?

    Even when the screen is locked, the phone will make calls.  What can I do to stop this?  Thanks much!

    The basic troubleshooting steps are reset, restart, and restore.
    Are you sure the device is staying locked?  Do you have a lock code set?

  • Why does iTunes make a mess out of my TV Shows library?

    I'm not really sure where to post this, as it doesn't seem like Apple pays much attention to the official Apple Support Forums, but I'll give it a go nontheless.
    The thing is, as most Apple TV owners I have to rely on iTunes for handling my media library in order to get it working towards my Apple TV (currently an Apple TV 3rd Generation, Rev A) which is perfectly fine. I find iTunes to be very well organised and owning several OS X systems, only using iOS devices and everything my music library already consists of only ALAC (Apple Lossless) music tracks and I like to keep all my audio books in M4B (AAC) simply because it’s much better organized this way. As long as all the metadata is done right one can’t really complain about how iTunes is doing things other than the Windows version being rather slow when you start filling it up with content, the OS X version is vastly superior in terms of performance and overall stability but I guess that is to be expected.
    I have absolutely no problems with my ALAC (Apple Lossless) music library, no matter how many tracks I add they are all there, with the correct metadata and everything. Same goes for my audio book library, the only ones being somewhat troublesome are those I’ve got in MP3 format instead of M4B (AAC) as they get automatically listed as music instead of audio books, but that’s fixed within a matter of seconds just marking them as audio book in iTunes metadata. My movie library, which used to consists of loads of self-ripped Blu-Rays encoded to MKV’s with either Dolby Digital 5.1 or DTS 5.1 is now repacked into M4V / MP4 containing Dolby Digital 5.1 (AC-3) and with the help of metadata downloaded from IMDB they are all listed correctly with the correct metadata, so all is good and dandy.
    But when it comes to TV-Shows things starts to get messy. We are still talking about only M4V / MP4 files containing mostly Dolby Digital 5.1 (AC-3) audio tracks, and a few containing 2.0 AAC audio tracks. The problem is iTunes is making a complete mess out of things, no matter what I do.
    Some TV-shows are added and shown correctly in my iTunes library, others are just not working out at all! Take my six seasons of LOST for instance.
    I tried to redo the metadata on the first six episodes of season 06, but they just won’t show no matter what I do. The weirdest thing with these episodes is that when I manually play the M4V files using iTunes, iTunes recognise them as LOST Season 02 episodes and not Season 03 episodes. So LOST Season 03 - Episode 01 which is "01. A Tale of Two Cities" is shown as LOST Season 02 - Episode 10 which is "10. The 23rd Psalm". That's quite odd, which was the reason why I went ahead and rework the metadata of these episodes just to be sure.
    But still it won’t show in the iTunes library and when manually opening the M4V files with iTunes it still shown as being "10. The 23rd Psalm" instead of "01. A Tale of Two Cities". If I open the file with QuickTime Player, Windows Media Player or Media Player Classic Home Cinema they all list it as "01. A Tale of Two Cities" and not "10. The 23rd Psalm" as iTunes does. Watching the playback is making quite clear it's indeed playing back A Tale of Two Cities and not The 23rd Pslam episodes, even in iTunes.
    I have no clues why iTunes is making a mess out of the first six episodes of LOST Season 03, it really doesn't make much sense as there is nothing with the M4V files, their contains or their metadata that points towards iTunes recognising it as a LOST Season 2 episode at all.
    Just to confirm the metadata in iTunes I tried to remove the whole LOST series from my library and went ahead and added ONLY the first six episodes of Season 03 and nothing else. Then they are showing correctly, with the correct metadata for each and every episode.
    But upon adding the rest of the bunch they disappear and suddenly iTunes starts mixing the first six episodes of Season 03 as Season 02 episodes...
    As soon as I add any episode of LOST Season 02, 10-15 they seem to replace LOST Season 03, 1-6. So Season 03 is working perfectly, having all the right metadata and everything but as soon as I add LOST Season 02, Episode 10, LOST Season 03, Episode 01 starts playing as LOST Season 02, Episode 10 and then disappears from the library. Upon adding and playing back LOST Season 02, Episode 11 it replaces LOST Season 03, Episode 02 which then disappears from the library and this goes on for episode 10-15 of Season 02 which for some reason replaces episode 01-06 of Season 03.
    This isn’t isolated to only LOST, same goes for a few of my House M.D season whereas iTunes is starting make a mess of things mixing metadata of Season 3 with metadata of Season 4 for no obvious reason. This is quite frustrating as this renders my Apple TV quite useless when iTunes is not capable of handling my media library correctly.
    Several episodes are missing in quite a few of my various TV Shows as well, some requires me to manually open the M4V / MP4 while browsing my library for it to get listed as it’s not being added while adding the folder to my library.
    This has been going on ever since iTunes 10.X, and it’s behaving like this on all my system it being Windows 7, Windows 8, OS X Mountain Lion or OS X Mavericks. Surely something has to be done in order to solve this? There is nothing wrong with my M4V / MP4 files as I’ve re-ripped them, re-encoded them, re-done their metadata and everything without any luck and consider it only happens with various TV shows and not with my music, audio book nor my movie library I see nothing pointing at it being a problem with my content but rather iTunes making it all fuzzy for no apparent reason.

    Seems like I actually figured out what was going on.. When I re-do my MKV's into MP4 / M4V's applications like Subler, MKVtoMP4 and other toolkits are grabbing metadata from servers like IMDB.
    Upon retrieving metadata they also grab something called "XID" which is supposedly Apple's very own iTunes specific ID or serial if you like for each specific TV show available through the iTunes Store. This seems to be causing the problems with missing episodes and episodes starting to playback as a different episode from another season.
    I always wondered why House Season 04 - Episode 01 - "Alone" always got played back as House Season 03 - Episode 11 - "Words of Deeds". It was always the exact same mix-up each and every time. iTunes never seems to mix-up anything other than the same specific episodes each and every time, and all the missing episodes are always the same ones, from the same TV show, from the very same season. I always found that a bit strange as I would expect library mix-ups from iTunes to be somewhat random and not consistent like this.
    So I tried to simply tried something completely random, renaming House Season 04 - Episode 01 - "Alone" into "RARW Season 11 - Episode 42 - "Come at me bro"" and House Season 03 - Episode 11 - "Words of Deeds" into "TESTING Season 04 - Episode 05 - "Testing this"" and it will still do the same, now my randomly generated metadata of "RARW Season 11 - Episode 42 - "Come at me bro"" was played back as "TESTING Season 04 - Episode 05 - "Testing this"". So it clearly had nothing to do with whatever metadata I added to the video within iTunes, it would continuously mix-up the very same episode no matter what.
    So then I grab my toolkit to see what kind of information was garter from IMDB's database to see if I could spot anything weird going on? I didn't really see anything, but I noticed the XID with it's "Apple:vendor_id:2003-tt0367279" input, so even though these two episodes had different XIDs I tried to simply input my very own like "House Season 03" and "House Season 04" and then all of sudden everything worked out perfectly.
    I'm not entirely sure whos to blame here. As the XID was indeed different I see no reason why iTunes should confuse one for the other in the first place, perhaps there is something fuzzy with the iTunes database or something. I don't really care though, I see no value in having the "correct" XID as long as my iTunes library is showing and playing back everything correctly so now I have just went ahead and re-done ALL my XID's of every TV Show to have their very own for each season just to make sure nothing like this ever happens again.

  • Why is the ejbstore() called when i invoke any getter method of my bean ?

    Hi All,
    I have designed one enterprise bean with three attributes title , type and date.
    and i have implemented getter and setter method for these member variables.
    When i call any one of getter methods,
    the output at server as follows :
    getTittle();
    ejbStore();
    getType();
    ejbStore();
    I want to know why the ejbStore() is called as soon as i called any one of getter methods.
    I heard ejbLoad() and ejbStore() are invoked by container based on transaction attribute.
    I even set "Never" as transaction attribute . Still i got a same type of output.
    Could you explain me why it happens ?
    Thanks in advance,
    nvseenu

    Hi magesh ,
    Hi
    ejbStore is called if any of the three is true:
    . A tx completes and the bean participated in the Tx
    and atleast one business method was called. Note that
    getters are also business methods.
    2. A Finder method is called within the tx, which
    causes ejbStore() to be called by the container
    (before the finder executes)
    3. The method is marked using
    "flush-et-end-of-method" attribute in
    sun-ejb-jar.xml.
    I understood the concepts explained here.
    >
    I am surprised that TX_NENVER causes ejbStore(). Can
    you send us the ejb-jar.xml and sun-ejb-jar.xml?The thing which confuse me is why ejbStore() is called for Transction attribute
    "Never".
    My ejb-jar.xml file is as follows:
    <!DOCTYPE ejb-jar PUBLIC

    BarronsBean has three member variables " id , title , type " and gettter and setter methods for these variables.
    I use JBoss App Server to run EJB.
    I feel information i have given here may be enough to you to explain me why ejbStore() is called after any one of the getter / setter method is invoked.
    Thanks in advance,

    AT&T is nationwide in the US. A Sim card doesn't know what state you live in. Why don't you contact AT&T customer service (800-331-0500) and get an authoritative answer.
