Why does my new 3G say "ATT E: at the top and not 3G?

Earlier at work my new 3g said "ATT 3g" and it was zippy fast. But now i noticed here at home, only 5 miles from the office, its saying "ATT E" at the top and its very slow. Does this mean the 3G is down?Or that I don't have enough signal here? I had no idea I would default back to the old slow Edge net? Arghhhhhh!!!

  • When I open iPhoto 9.2.1 it says that my library needs to be upgraded but when I upgrade the library I am trying to open (33 GB worth of pictures from 2006) the new application says it cannot read the files and how to find them on the system to reimport?!

Why is upgrading software iPhoto such a pain. I've gotta get a presentation done and all I get for my money is roadblock!!!

    hello, it sounds like the library is damaged.
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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.

  • Why is it that Kindle fire supports flash in the USA and not UK?

    Why is it that Kindle fire supports flash in the USA and not UK? This is ridiculous and annoying

    In silk the US version gives you the opportunity to enable or disable flash, it doesn't exist in the UK one. Speaking to amazon.com they can't understand why it's not there but speaking to amazon.co.uk they say kindle doesn't support flash. As a result my daughter can't view any flash websites, specifically the homework website we were intending her to be able to use on her new kindle. Total waste of money.

  • Why does my new iMac say Migration Assistant on old iMac needs to be upgraded?

    New iMac: 2.5 GHz Quad core i5 running Lion 10.7.2
    Old iMac: Power PC G4 running Tiger 10.4.11
    Migration Assistant app is installed on the G4.
    OX software is updated.
    Connected via Ethernet cable.
    But computers are not seeing each other and the new iMac says "Migration Assistant on the source computer needs to be updated".
    Any ideas what is wrong?

    You need to use the Migration Assistant on the new computer. You have to boot the G4 into Target Disk Mode - Transferring files between two computers using FireWire. Boot the new computer normally, and you should see a Desktop drive icon for the G4. Open Migration Assistant on the new computer in the Utilities folder.

  • Why do some apps hover under the top and not able to click'

    This has been happening since I got my iphone 3gs back in January.   My photos and facebook and other apps, at least 3 times a week, Im unable to click anything becuz they "hover" under the bar at the top.   When its like this, I cant actually click anything, when its my photo albums doing it...it shows the albums but theyre all UNDER the top and cannot be clicked.   How can I fix this?   Ive talked with an apple associate in store and they said just reboot my phone when this happens...but its happening more often now and with more apps.  They STILL say reboot but I shouldnt have to reboot any cell phone daily.   HOW CAN I FIX THIS?

    PS-  I know this photo doesnt look bad, but it is bad when you cant click anything....it happens to my albums all the time

  • My new iphone says some random name in itunes and not mine. Why?

  • Why does my Firefox always put a line at the top that says, "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page."?

    This comes up nearly every time I click on a link to open another page... but the page does open; it's just that this line adds another unnecessary line at the top of my already shrinking window.
    Can I keep this from happening? I've tried everything I can think of, but nothing has stopped it from occurring.
    Thanks for your help.

    See:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
    The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

  • Why does my preordered album say it's downloaded when it's not on my list

    I purchased a track from an album which wasn't out until the end of aug then preorderd the remaining album. It now says I have downloaded the remaining tracks but they do not show on my purchased list. I have tried to purchase again but it says they already downloaded. Help?

    Get OmniDisk Sweeper and run it as root. This will allow you to see the size of any other users' home folders.
    http://www.omnigroup.com/products/omnidisksweeper/
    To run as root, copy/paste into Terminal in Utilities.
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    Then hit return. After a scary warning about using the sudo prefix, you will be prompted for your admin password. You won't see anything on the screen as you type it in. Then hit return again.
    Also, from the Finder menu, use Go>Go To Folder and enter  /volumes. With all external drives unmounted and disconnected, you should only be seeing your startup disk as an alias.
    Another possibility is your logs have become huge from repeated logging of error messages from some runaway process or app. Open Console in Utilities to check that out.

  • Why does my printer keep saying out of paper? it's not!

    My printer tries to pick up paper for a long time then tels me its out of paper...It's not.  Is my machine broken?  I just bought it like 2 months ago.  What do I do or where do I take it to get it fixed?

     Reset the product
    With the product turned on , disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
    Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
    Wait at least 15 seconds.
    Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
    Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
    If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button
    try printing again
    if this doesn't work...
    If you just purchased 2 months ago you are STILL in warranty an will get free support if you call
    1800.474.6836
    If they are unable to resolve over the phone you may be eligible for a free replacment.... but they will have to go thru trouble shooting first. expect to spend close to 1 hour on the phone.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • Why does my browser keep on opening things in mobile version and not desktop version?

    hi everyone,
    i just picked up my imac today and i'm trying to get used to it. here's one of many questions i have:
    why do certain pages like facebook and hotmail sign in always open up in the mobile version and not desk top? how can i change the settings so that things will open only in the desk top version?
    i went into develop and clicked on the latest safari but that didn't do anything.
    it's annoying changing it every time i go into those sites.
    any help would be much appreciated.
    thanks,
    mary

    Read this whole message before doing anything.
    Back up all data if you haven’t already done so. Before proceeding, you must be sure you can restore your system to the state it’s in now.
    Quit Safari if it’s running. Then select  ▹ Force Quit... from the menu bar. A small window will open with a list of running applications. Safari may appear in that list, even though you quit it. If so, select it and press return. Close the window.
    Step 1
    In the Finder, press the key combination shift-command-A to open the Applications folder. Select the Safari icon in that folder and press the key combination command-I to open the Info window. There’s a checkbox in the Info window labeled Open in 32-bit mode. Uncheck it, if checked. Close the Info window and the Applications folder.
    Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
    Caches/com.apple.Safari
    Caches/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess
    Caches/Metadata/Safari
    Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginHost.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.WebKit.PluginProcess.plist
    Saved Application State/com.apple.Safari.savedState
    Leave the Library folder open. Try Safari again. If it works now, stop here. Close the Library folder.
    Step 2
    If you still have problems, quit Safari again.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    rm -fr $TMPDIR../C/com.apple.Safari
    Quit Terminal. Launch Safari and test.
    Step 3
    If Safari still doesn’t work right, quit, go back to the Finder and move the following items from the open Library folder to the Desktop (some may not exist):
    Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.LSSharedFileList.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.Safari.RSS.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.WebFoundation.plist
    PubSub/Database
    Safari
    (Note: you are not moving the Safari application. You’re moving a folder named “Safari.”)
    Try again. This time Safari should perform normally, but your settings and bookmarks will be lost.
    If the issue is still not resolved, quit Safari again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were, overwriting the newer ones that will have been created in their place. You don’t need to replace the files you deleted in step 1. Stop here and post again.
    If Safari is now working normally (apart from the lost settings), look inside the “Safari” folder on the Desktop for a file named “Bookmarks.plist”. Select File ▹ Import Bookmarks from the Safari menu bar. Import from that file. Recreate the rest of your Safari settings. You can then delete the items you moved to the Desktop.
    Note: This step will remove your Safari Extensions, if any, and their settings. If you choose to restore them, do so one at a time, testing after each step to make sure you haven’t restored the problem.
    If you don’t like the results of step 3, you can undo it completely by quitting Safari and restoring the items you moved or deleted in that step from your backup, overwriting any that were created in their place.

  • Why does my iPod touch automatically go out of DFU mode, and not stay in it until I turn it on?

    I put my iPod touch 4g intoDFU mode, then after 10 minutes or so, it turns on with iBoot. I know that DFU mode bypasses iBoot. It automatically boots out from DFU mode. Please help me, because I want to restore it.

    Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • IOS 7 - why does my iphone 4S say I have purchased items which have not been transferred?

    I downloaded iOS 7 to iTunes (11.1) and synced my iPhone (4S), but when I try to update, I get an alert saying that I have puchased items on my iPhone which are not in my iTunes library and that I should transfer them before upgrading.   I have synced several times, but I still get this warning.  Why is this happening, and what should I do about it?
