Why was our thread on the 7.2 upgrade deleted? Just curious

I saw about the first 40 posts, came back later tonight and now its gone. everything i saw was legit, just wondering what happened.

Several topics critical of Apple/Logic were deleted today, including one of mine from earlier this morning (which was a commentary on the LA LUG meeting).

How do I Change the Name of My MacBook and Why was it Changed after the Upgrade to Yosemite?

Hi everyone,
I upgraded my MacBook Air (2012) to Yosemite a few months back and it changed the name of my Mac from "Alan's MacBook" to "Alan MacBook Air (2)." I simply want to know how to change it back to the original name. Also, why was it changed in the first place after my upgrade to Yosemite?
Thank you so much!!!
Alan

This was a common bug in Yosemite. Follow dwb's instructions but also restart your router. Make sure you're running OS X 10.10.2 since it was supposed to have been addressed with that update.
I have heard allegations regarding simultaneous use of both Wi-Fi and Ethernet (or equivalent adapter, considering it's a MBA) but can find no justification for them, and I never personally observed any correlation to it. It's perfectly acceptable to use both.

Why was my user downloaded artwork removed after upgrade?

Just upgraded to itunes 10.4. I have a huge library and I have alot of artwork that I myself added to many albums. Now I have to do it all over again. I still have the artwork, but I have to associate it all over again. Why does itunes erase the info? Alot of time wasted to add it all over again.

Anyone? My asumption is that iTunes doesn't like when you add album artwork, because I didn't buy it from the iTunes store. Truth is alot of my library are over 500 cd's that I bought throughout my life. I download the artwork that iTunes doesn't find.
So, Can nobody answer me why was it removed after the upgrade?

I am having a really wierd issue as well that is probally related. I dont see 95% of the album artwork associated with my music. Also, it seems as if this has gotten worse since I started using that match feature

I tried partitioning my HD to install linux, the installion was not successful and now I can't boot my mac, I tried internet recovery, it was not helpfull as the disk utility cannot delete the partition I created.

I tried partitioning my HD to install linux, the installion was not successful and now I can't boot my mac, I tried internet recovery, it was not helpfull as the disk utility cannot delete the partition I created. It was only showing me an error message "EFI files are missing", I realized that it is trying to boot from the new partition I created for the installation of the linux I intended to do.

It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

Why do assets shift to the left when I delete something? For example if I have a whole series of text inserts in my movie and I delete one... assets to the left of the deleted text will shift. And the snap is NOT checked. It would be helpful if assets would stay in place and not shift to the left ... groan.
And thanks for the help previously given on another issue. I can't seem to find the origional post but did want to thank Steve for his help. Most appreciated.

Why Was This Thread Censored?

Hi,
I was just wondering if someone could tell me why this innocuous thread was censored.
As you can see, the question concerned a malfunctioning Help Viewer that, based on the description of the problem, I thought needed to be reset. I directed the user to the X Lab's page on troubleshooting the Help Viewer, and I also excerpted from that page the steps necessary to reset the Help Viewer (a small subset of a very lengthy page).
The portion that was excised was the excerpt.
The excerpt wasn't particularly long, only seven itemized steps plus some additional explanatory language. I included it, rather than just referring the OP to the linked Web page, because the OP seemed to me to be a new user -- he/she had registered only yesterday and had a total of two posts so far -- and the X Lab Web page on troubleshooting the Help Viewer is quite extensive, much lengthier than other such troubleshooting pages, and I was concerned that the OP might easily get lost if given only the link.
If I violated any Discussions rule by including the excerpt, I'm unaware of it and would like to know so that I don't unintentionally violate it again.
Thanks for your time.

Hi Donald, ~JB~, JDee and all,
"Or is that allowed on the boards as long as you declare you are quoting an apple document?"
We do that all the time, no problem. Just clearly indicate that the excerpt is from KB article #xxxxx, you use it to help pointing the info you're giving in your reply.
Anyway that's what you naturally do, to strenghten your point, don't you?
This is just a matter of using other's knowledge in a proper, civil way, giving credits to the author.
Come on, it's worked perfectly until now, between normal, honest, sensible people,
are you sure this too has to become an issue and a political debate???
--> EXAMPLE: (about the eMac PSU)
How do you write "configured for 100-120V AC or 200-240V AC depending on country of use" without quoting, please?
By adding spaces between letters?
Oh God I'm so fed up with those disclaimers (especially those that are used as advertisements but not obviously enough so they still comply with the TOU), please, Apple Discussions are just nice, friendly, technical discussions forums!!
No lawyer needed (yet?) to post a reply, and no KGB either!
Thanks!!

To my knowledge i find nothing offensive in my reply, so what could be the reason?

P.S.: Even a Wrong answer is still there, how come only my reply is rejected

Your Abuse Reports are definately appreciated. No doubt about that.
In this case 3 posts came into the reports, one of them self-reported by you.
They all tilted a bit too far into the grumpie (even horrify, or aggressive) zone, so were rejected. The system then automatically sends a nasty mail...
Perhaps we should tone down the choice of wording a bit?
Moving the What is BC - ABAP thread into the Coffee Corner didnt seem an option either because we have enough of those here by now as well ...
We cannot move every interview question into the Coffee Corner. The thread is now locked.
Hope that is okay for you now,

Why doesn't the kernel have a maintainer (just curious)?

I just noticed the new kernel upgrade in testing and also noticed that it has no maintainer. I am just purely curious why. I feel I must be missing something about how Arch works. Isn't this the most important package of all?

No, it means that we are too efficient (lazy...) to adopt packages when we upload them to [testing]. This is because they are only in [testing] temporarily on their way to [core]/[extra].

Where is Rescue and Recovery 4.50 for Windows 7 and why was it removed from the support site?

When Rescue and Recovery 4.51 was released a few weeks ago, all references to the previous version were replaced. Unfortunately, the new release is not supported on the R series machines nor on the earlier T series machines, so for those machines, the only version of Rescue and Recovery for Windows 7 that is available is version 4.30.0027 which was released in September 2009.
This makes no sense.
Please re-instate the documentation and download links for Rescue and Recovery 4.50 for all machines which were supported on that release but are not on version 4.51.
ThinkPad R61 8932-CTO T8300 2.40 Ghz 3GB RAM Win XP
ThinkPad R500 2714-CTO P8600 2.40 Ghz 3GB RAM Win XP; Two ThinkPad R500's 2714-CTO T9600 2.80 Ghz 4GB RAM Win 7
ThinkPad T500 2241-DB9 T9600 2.80 Ghz 4GB RAM Win 7
ThinkCenter A63 5237-CTO 3GB Ram Win XP; A21m and a pair of 380XD's

Thank you for your response.
The R61 and the R500 that I own, that are currently running Windows XP are staying there until Microsoft stops supporting Windows XP, at which point I will decide what to do with them, so trying 4.51 on them is not currently an option.
As an IT professional, I tend to be the support guy for all the Lenovo computers in my family. My son also has an R500, which was purchased used, and it came with Windows 7. When I set it up for him, I installed Rescue and Recovery 4.5 over 4.3 before taking the original full system image backups. He would loose the capability to use those backups if I were to try to downgrade that machine to Rescue and recovery 4.3. My own R500 came with Rescue and Recovery 4.30.0025, (for which there is no documentation nor download links available, to my knowledge), and I have never upgraded it, because I am concerned that all my backups would become unreadable if I did. I don’t think it is worth the effort to make all the external bootable backups that upgrading the software would require. I would upgrade if I was assured that version 4.30.0027 could read the backups taken by version 4.30.0025.
There were 2 more versions of Rescue and Recovery. There was version 4.31.007 released on 2010/09/28 and version 4.31.011 released on 2011/03/04. The document ID’s for release 4.51 are the same as those for the 4.31 releases, so I should assume that Lenovo considers the 4.31 releases a major advance over the 4.30 release, and thus not a valid fallback option but why not?

Why was my thread (Android forums) deleted?

Please explain to me how my post violated TOS or my ULA? My post contained valid complaints expressed in a non-threatening manner, with no profanity. Was the reason because I linked to an outside URL? The link was to the Motorola site, for a rebate regarding Verizon phones. The post which was deleted was my first, so it should be easy to find. I must say that this is not a good way to keep a customer. The reason why customers are treated so poorly is because we, contractually, cannot collectively sue you in class action. We have no power, so you will continue to treat us without respect.

Like I said, we cannot sue carriers in class action, because they all have similar restrictions in their contracts regarding arbitration, class action, and so on. Therefore we will continue to be treated unfairly as they hold all the cards. My phone will not work without (deleted content as per VZW ToS), yet they keep on putting out new RARZ MAXX XTRME ULTRA HD M phones every other week, instead of fixing the broken phones which are already out there. If they spent a fraction of the money on fixing the Bionic as they did marketing it, this problem would have already been resolved. Apparently there's no way to have a real discussion in this "community" about any salient issues. Thank you for the help, Ann154.

I was trying to download a free app from the iTunes Store,and was asked to update my method of payment. I did ,and was denied. Why was I denied if the app is free?

I Was downloading a free app from the iTunes Store ,and could not it said because no money in my method of payment .if it is free why do I need to have a method of payment?

If you didn't setp your iTunes account, from the beginning, without a credit card, you'll have to either add a credit card to your account or redeem an iTunes gift card, regardless of whether the app is free or not.

Why was my thread deleted?

I posted about poor results about my range expander and someone deleted my post. Why???????????????

I got mine deleted, and got banned even for a few days for mentioning another brand, in passing comment on a post. It's a big no no here.
They'll ignore your problems/issues out the door but once you mention another brand, your post is gone like the wind.
Usually they'll send you a PM on why, if they feel like it so check your messages.

Why was I charged over the fee it said I would pay

Hello...So I was trying to download itunes today and the option for a connection came up so I chose Firefox (remembering that my old roommate had it). The fee for itunes was only $12.00 and that's all I thought was going to be charged, I looked at my back account and there was a $70.00 fee to my account. I wasn't expecting to be charged this much and would appreciate it if the charge/program was removed. If my card number, etc. would be helpful I would be happy to send it again.

Sorry, but you got scammed. Firefox is free - always has been, and always will be free, when you get it from directly Mozilla.
Contact your credit card company and file a dispute over that charge. Then try to get that charge reversed thru iTunes.
