Why was it made possible that our Android phones can and will erase everything including our personal SD memory card data when the unlock screen thinks that 10 attempts were tried to unlock it?
>> Duplicate post removed to comply with the Verizon Wireless Terms of Service See Re: Help My S5 recently reset while my screen was locked and i had a ton of pictures on the phone's storage. I would love to retrieve that and find out how it is possible to reset a phone while the screen is locked. <<

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

Does anyone have advice about how to move my photos from my android phone to my Macbook Air? The phone is no longer in service (I traded to an iphone) and I can't locate my cable--which may not have helped, anyway. I tried inserting my micro memory card into a USB reader, and the computer will not acknowledge any photos from the card. Thoughts?
I think you will find the cable to be very necessary.
For some phones - samsung for example, you may need to down load their manager program (I think samsung's is called Kies or keis) A bit like how one uses itunes to connect to a iphone.
Once you have the cable and are connected, you should see a file system and look for the DCIM directory. -
I am running windows xp and tried to download the latest version of iTunes 11.1.4 for windows xp. Unfortunately it did not install correctly. There was a error message: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library, Runtime Error!, Program:C\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe, R6034, An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the application's support team for more information. Then,when I close that box, another box appears that states: iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (windows error 1114). When I attempt to reinstall iTunes though the Apple iTunes website, nothing happens ( no reinstall) presumably because it detects that it is already installed. How do I work around this problem to reinstall iTunes?

Can you tell me the exact time when the unlocked iphone 4s begin to sell?
The apple web site tells me that the unlocked iphone 4s will come in November. However, can you tell the exact date when the unlocked iphone 4s start to sell?
No, sorry but it has not taken anything away from your headset.
Have you tried deleting the pairing then pairing the devices again?
Have you tried a reset or restart of the iPhone?
Are you certain that the issue is not with the headset itself? -
Please help - I am beginning to hate google, my android and gmail. I have just wasted about 5 hours in a futile attempt to try and get my current Mac contacts list on my computer updated to my phone. I'm not that computer literate but I have looked up about google phone accounts, vCards, backing up contact lists, what SD on phones are, and God know what else. I have searched the internet and tried all sorts of things and I still have a mac with a now correct contact list (after the iPad contacts scrambled it and I spent ages manually correcting them all) and a phone with an outdated contact list. If you try and sync them the phone wants to overwrite the computer one just like the iPad did (would it be so **** hard to give you a choice on the phone as to which overwrites which!). After all the advice on the internet failed, I got the bright idea to completely delete all the ones on the phone and if it was empty of contacts the computer one could be exported to it. Not as simple as it sounds. First I backed up (I think) my computer contacts list. Numerous futile attempts to go through the phone options to globally delete all contacts did not work - they gave a warning message and you got to choose whether to continue or not, I did, and it looked like it might be working as it changed to zero data on the phone, but then they all popped back up again from God knows where from, but without their little added bits like pictures of the people. So, I tried un- syncing the darn phone from google and then deleting them globally. That didn't work either. I tried deleting them all again and again and google would crash and not let me do it. It is absolutely ridiculous that this is so damned difficult to do (especially if you are not computer savvy) and that you cannot choose which device overwrites which when syncing. I gave up and ticked sync with Google again (not that it appears to do anything to the phone contact list at all). So after 5 hours I am back to where I started from, with a phone showing all the same incorrect contacts (but the pictures are back), which wants to overwrite the computer if I try any sort of sync, and no way to fix them except go into each one manually and try and do it - and how long would that take (and I've already wasted hours and hours fixing scrambled contact lists!). I think I will do a print out of the computer contact list and just carry it around with me like an address book - so much bloody simpler. So now I have a headache, am fighting an overwhelming urge to hurl the phone at the wall, hoping for a heat wave to evaporate icloud things and am wishing I had bought an iPhone instead of the stupid HTC Android. Can any one offer me any suggestions on how to get rid of the contacts on my phone and replace them with the ones in my mac address list - hopefully after that they can sync to their hearts content and not stuff everything up again (which was why I unsynced google a while back - because the phone's list kept making stuff ups and scrambling and duplicating my computer contacts list). Am I the only one on the planet having this problem or is there someone else out there who has had it and solved it.
Without "pretending" to be yourself on the other phone (change settings) there's nothing else you can do.
iOS devices are meant to be single user and can't view iCloud.com the same way a Mac or PC can do.
You need to find a desktop or laptop machine (Mac or PC) to log in at iCloud. -
Hello! The question is this. In London, took the Iphone 5 as sim free, flew to Moscow put Simcoe, and he writes me that is locked to the operator O2. Can anyone encountered this problem? What to do? How to remove the Unlock?
<Edited by Host>Look at your receipt. Does it say unlocked? It is possible to purchase both locked "sim free" and unlocked iPhones from Apple.
ONLY the carrier an iPhone is locked to can legitimately unlock it.
IF your receipt says that it was supposed to be unlocked, and it is not, call AppleCare. They should be able to straighten it out. -
My computer was acting up so i had to restore it and i lost everything. how do i get the songs back that i already paid for?
The easiest way to get back missing items? Restore your whole hard drive with all your irreplaceable things like photos in about 20 minutes from the backup clone you make on a regular basis.
Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability by Country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases. -

I have an iPhone 3GS and was trying to restore it...
Now it won't let me activate my phone and my itunes tells me I have no SIM card inserted when I do.
Any ideas on how to get it working again?This means that the phone was previously hacked to carrier unlock (unauthorized unlock), and when you restored, the hack was removed and it became re-locked to its original carrier. It will now accept a SIM card only from that carrier.
Your only option is to contact the carrier it's locked to and enquire if they will provide authorized unlocking. Not all carriers will unlock and those that do usually have requirements and qualifications - i.e. you have to be a current or former customer in good standing. -
Date when the cube was filled with data for the last time
Hi!
We are using a SAP BW System and on top of it BOBJ for reporting. Within BEx Web Application Designer, it's very simple to access the data, when the cube was filled with data for the last time. Is it possible to access this information within BOBJ, too?
Thanks for your help!

StefanHallo Ingo,
thanks for your answer. That was exactly what we were looking for.
We will have to think about a workaround now.

I was updating my iphone and i deleted everything now it say there is no sim in the phone, i have gone to the iphone shop and they say is is working The sim is in the phone . when i take it out and put it in another phone i can call and recieve calls
I did call apple care and they guided me through everything.. they said it was the hardware
I was given this phone last year as a present
i know, it was not new.. so it could have been on an other cell provider i am not sure if it was so at the moment that is all i can do -
Recently I downloaded photos from an sd card. When the download was complete all photos were loaded in a random fashion completely out of order.This is the first time it has ever happened this way. downloaded same card to iPhoto and all photos were in order. Help needed. Am working on a job that needs immediate attention and HDR images out of order are impossible to deal with.
Thanks for your help. The out of numerical order comes before the actual import begins. It happens when first uploaded to Lightroom and prior selection of of photos to imported to the catalog.

My old iphone was replaced today, due to faults. Now it will not allow me to use my credit card account for the appstore and itunes?
Please don't tell me to retry, or re check my information because it is all correct, it basically says u cannot use thi account due to it being connected to another device... which is my old fault iphone, at the apple store.I have never before heard of cards being locked to a single device... but your case has shown me that it happens.
If I am getting it right you try to log in to your account and it asks for billing information, and when you enter your card details it tells you that the card cannot be used. If that is the case then I'm sorry to say that my only suggestion would be to contact iTunes support directly; the contact form can be found in here: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us -
IPhone 4s shipping date for the unlocked version
iPhone 4s shipping date for the unlocked version seems to be stable at 1-2 weeks for at least the past two months now. Is there a shipping date in sight? Would be great to know, since I would love to give it as a present.
My experience has been that all anyone you can reach at Apple could tell you would be the same information shown in the web site. So the estimate of shipping within one to two weeks from time of order is probably as precise an estimate as you're going to get.
Regards. -
