Would like to schedule an appointment

I'm having problems downloading OS X Yosemite.  I would like to schedule a genius bar appointment at the Fashion Place Mall store, in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Thank you.

Then you should probably either call the store and schedule an appointment, or try to schedule one on-line.
You're not talking to Apple. This is a user forum.

  • HT1766 I would like to schedule a phone or in store appt for tech help on my iPhone.  ICloud isn't backing up, I've followed steps and Wifi won't turn on as well.

    I would like to schedule a "help" appointment to get my phone to back up to ICloud.  I've had this problem for 11 weeks, have followed the online instructions as well as what the apple in store rep emailed me.  The wifi also will not turn on to do the backup.
    Please advise if I can schedule for phone or in-store appt.
    Thank you,

    You can schedule a Genius Bar appointment, but not in this user-to-user technical support forum. Instead visit http://apple.com/retail and click on Genius Bar.

  • I would like to make an appointment

    I need make an appointment to see a tech expert. there is a dvd stuck in my mac

    If you have an Apple store nearby make an appointment there, otherwise use an Apple Authorised repair shop.

  • I would like to create an appointment from the contact list. I now have to come out of contact to calendar.

    Will this be something that wil be added or is there a way that people are having success?

    Many thanks, Phil. I purchased the app you recomended, and following a bit of messing about, achieved both of my desired outcomes.
    For your information yes there was a quit option, but this only worked as long as i was logged in. Whenever i logged out and back in again it returned.
    thanks again,

  • In GATP would like to push schedule delivery date+1 day

    Hi Experts:-
    We have below requirement  in GATP:-
    Can we maintain a condition record for pick /pack time  = 1 day against Shipping Point in particular Location.? In other word we would like to push schedule delivery date+1 day.
    In APO we can see control data :- Plan (LEAD), load (LOAD), pick/pack (PICK), transport (TRAN), unload (UNLD)
    In APO We have maintained  value = 24:00 for location XXXX ( as per below steps)
    1.     In the SAP Easy Access screen choose Master Data ® Master Data for Transportation and Shipment Scheduling ® Create Scheduling Step.
    2.     Select a condition type.
    3.     Enter concrete values for the key combination.
    4.     Enter a duration (external display: hhhhhhh:mm).
    While checking order, When the process branches into APO ATP, can see time 24:00 This seems to indicate that Pick/Pack record has now been found, but the scheduled delivery date is not being pushed out by one extra day.
    Looking at the condition log in APO shows the following;;
    Lead Plan:304 Access for Access sequence LEAD missing(Usage U)
    Pick Pick : 208 Condition record has been found
    Load Load: 304 Access for Access sequence LOAD missing(Usage U)
    TRAN Transport: 009 Condition record is missing
    UNLD Unload :  002 Access not made ( Initialized field)
    Can you suggest.

    Hi DB,
    Thanks, Very helpful links.
    I did some testing on various sets of data change in APO for PICK and TRAN :-
    Parameters :-     
    Order creation date     2-Nov
    Route YR0004= 4 days     
    Calendar :-Sat and Sun holidays  & 11th Nov bank holiday     
    Test 1 with 0 Day pick time, No TRAN maintained :-
    Delivery date     8-Nov
    Gi Date     7-Nov
    Loading date     7-Nov
    MAD     7-Nov
    Transportation planning date     7-Nov
    Test 2 with 1 day pick time, No TRAN maintained :-
    Delivery date     8-Nov
    Gi Date     7-Nov
    Loading date     7-Nov
    MAD     4-Nov
    Transportation planning date     7-Nov
    Test 3 with 3 day pick time, No TRAN maintained :-

    Delivery date     9-Nov
    Gi Date     9-Nov
    Loading date     9-Nov
    MAD     2-Nov
    Transportation planning date     9-Nov
    Now next scenario only TRAN without PICK

    Delivery date     8-Nov
    Gi Date     4-Nov
    Loading date     4-Nov
    MAD     4-Nov
    Transportation planning date     4-Nov
    *with 2 day and 3 day result is same as test1
    Test2 with 4 day TRAN time
    Delivery date     8-Nov
    Gi Date     3-Nov
    Loading date     3-Nov
    MAD     3-Nov
    Trasnportation planning date     3-Nov
    Test3 with 7 day TRAN time
    Can see Delivery Date moving ahead one day.
    Delivery date     9-Nov
    Gi Date     2-Nov
    Loading date     2-Nov
    MAD     2-Nov
    Trasnportation planning date     2-Nov
    Now next scenario  is to maintain data in both PICK and TRAN
    Test 1 with 1 days pick time+ 1 day Tran

    Then something is wrong with your backups.  Changing the interval will only deal with they symptoms, not the actual problem, and you won't be as well protected as with hourly backups.
    If the backups are much larger than they ought to be,  see #D4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
    If the sizes are reasonable, but it seems to take too long, see #D2 there.

  • HT2513 I am using iCal 5.0.1.  I want the time displayed in 24hr format. I would also like to schedule events in 24hr format.  Any suggestions on how to do this?

    I am using iCal 5.0.1.  I would like to have my time displayed in a 24hr format instead of 12hr format.  I have already set my computer to display time in a 24hr format.  How do I do that?

    Hello all,
    I'm still having this issue and would really like any suggestions if anyone knows of any. Basically, I need to view my calendar that doesn't have any events so I can change the password and get any new events for it.
    Because the calendar app does not show the calendar in the calendar listing if it doesn't have any events (not smart btw), I don't have a way to change its information. And attempting to re-subscribe gives me the error that the calendar already exists.
    Is there a way that I can view "all" calendars even if they are hidden or don't have any events scheduled for them so that I can change the login credentials? This issue is on the calendar app version 6.0 build 1645 on my mac os x laptop.
    I know there has to be a way to do this but I just can't seem to find it and googling is not turning up any results. Even searching my my keychain for the login information and the systems preferences has not shown me anything.
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks

  • I think my hard drive's dead; would like to know more about support

    This is a couple questions, but namely, what's the most effective way to get your iMac turned in for repair? Should I just schedule a time to go to a Genius bar and bring it in, or do I need to go through the whole process of making a support phone call?
    My iMac had a problem yesterday with a blinking question mark folder. I tried doing a disk repair, but it failed a couple times on me. I then formatted the drive (I have Time Machine, so I'm hoping I have that backed up at least), reinstalled OS X, but then it wouldn't boot afterwards.
    After looking at the forums, I've seen a couple tips on getting some more verbose output from the monitor when booting (like holding Command + V for verbose output, Command + Option + P + R for resetting the PRAM (or VRAM?)), and after getting a more verbose output, I'm pretty sure this error clinched it for me:
    /etc/rc: line 258: 27 Segmentation fault launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons /System/Library/LaunchDaemons /etc/mach_init.d
    SystemStarter[29]: ipconfig waitall: Segmentation fault
    So now I'm packing up my computer to take to support. I believe a seg. fault is about as bad as a hard drive can get when it dies, but I was wondering if anyone knows how good support is with these kinds of repairs, what kind of response I could expect from the Genius Bar, turnaround for a new hard drive (or will they just switch my whole computer out with another that works?), etc., etc.
    I purchased the AppleCare, so I have coverage until 2010, so I should be covered.
    Thanks in advance,
    Nick
    P.S. Is there any way to change my alias on these forums? I'm kind of past putting a handle down for my name, when I'm pretty sure a first name would be more useful for everybody.
    null

    Hello Nick:
    You could schedule an appointment and then take the Mac in for repair. Alternatively, you could call Applecare and schedule a home repair. I know of a couple of people who have done this and were satisfied. If the drive does need to be repaired/replaced) be sure you get good instructions on retrieving your data (there are knowledge base articles that address that process (looks straightforward, but I have not done it myself).
    As far as the name change, I think it would make sense just to set up an entirely new profile (as you only have six posts on this one). One of the things I did when I first signed on many moons ago is to decide that my name (not an alias) would be most useful. That has proved to be the case.

  • Why can't Siri schedule an appointment?

    I am unable to schedule an appointment with Siri in my iPhone 4S, the command sequence is as follows:
    Siri: What can I help you with?
    Me: I want to schedule an appointment for February first at seven PM.
    Siri: OK, Scheduling appointment for February first at seven PM, would you like to confirm?
    I select confirm of the two options available, the other option is cancel...
    Siri: One moment please
    I wait like five seconds...
    Siri: Sorry, I'm afraid I can't do that.
    Me: Why not?
    Siri: I don't know.
    Me: You better, or I'll send you to get recycled! You'll be a soda can by this time next week!
    Siri: No comment
    I like this phone but I really wanted this Siri feature to schedule appointment. Please help before this phone winds up at my grocery store shelf!

    Check your iCloud settings. I was having the same problem until I looked at this and realized that I was not signed in. This fixed my problem instantly. I would've gotten rid of this phone too If I couldn't fix it that was the main feature I was looking forward to. I really hope this helps let me know. Good luck Apple users.

  • Lightroom features/bug fixes I would like to see in next version

    I love the Adobe Lightroom Application. It is very intiutive and out of the different RAW processing programs I've tried, it is the only one that has most of the features I need and has the least amount of complications. However, I think there are still places to improve upon:
    * Decouple raw processor from the monolithic software executable so that updates to the RAW camera component to add new cameras can be made without requiring huge downloads or reinstallation of a new software program but simply updating a few DLLs and files.
    * Improve performance of the Develop panel. It is extremely slow on my laptop running 32bit Windows 7 and 3GB of RAM with dual core processor (pre-Core duo). 8 to 10 seconds for the "loading" message to disappear per image no matter how often I have loaded or edited the image. No caching is being done at all.
    * On my higher powered Desktop (Quad Core2 processor/4GB RAM,Windows 7), Adobe Lightroom frequently will start behaving strangely after only a few hours of running. It seems like it is leaking resources or something because eventually functionality will start failing. Specifically, right clicking on images will no longer bring up menus for example. If i shutdown and restart the application, the problem goes away.
    * Photoshop-like healing brush. Many times I want to "brush" over areas of image defects but the only choice in Lightroom is the healing tool which always creates a circle and does not allow "brushing".  This only works if the defect is a spot and not an irregular area.
    * Adjustment with Arbitrary Mask tool. Bibble 5 has this nice concept where you can mask out a section of an image and then apply adjustments to it without affecting the rest of the image. You simply draw a mask and then you can apply adjustments to it. The only option in Lightroom is to select the "Mask" option but that leaves the decision of where exactly you want to mask to Lightroom which only uses edge contrast to determine masking area.
    * I'd like a way to tell Lightroom to update the metadata (write out) on all images that are out of sync. Right now the write metadata function will write out metadata to all files whether or not it is required. This means that it is inpractical to try to update your entire catalog as tens of thousands of files will be written to and not just those that are out of sync. This is very important as a way to preserve editing metadata in case of loss of the Lightroom catalog.
    * Option to write import metadata to imported files. For example, I have an import metadata for copyright and keywords and I want the imported JPG or DNG files to permanently have this metadata so that even if individual files are copied my copyright and other metadata are preserved with it.
    * Option to append text labels to automatically generated import destination folder names. So for example, I can still import into date based directories but append a description to help me remember what the folder contains when I'm later browsing it. Right now it is either/or. You can either choose the name of the import folder destination OR you can have the software generate one for you.
    * A google-type search box at the top of the library panel so that ad-hoc searches can be done without having to fool around with the filters. Everybody is used to a single search box for simple textual searches.
    * some way to filter images by whether they have been exported previously or not
    * Please support lens and shooting information for Sony DSLRs in both JPG and RAW files. Also support 3rd party lenses on Sony DSLRs without assigning the wrong Minolta lenses to them. I want to be able to see both Lens name, max aperture, focusing distance (if available) etc...
    * Some way to edit the Shooting lens information to support lenses which are not known to Lightroom, and if suggestion above won't be implemented, some way for the user to edit the lens id --> mapping table so that I can properly map my own 3rd party lenses.
    * Facial recognition/tagging option. Some way to have Lightroom apply people tags after I have tagged representative images. Handle multiple people in a scene.
    * Automatic (batch) export of images on schedule. I would like a way to configure Lightroom to automatically generate particular export configuration of all my images in a catalog (or some defined subset) such that new files or files that have been edited since last export are automatically exported on a schedule even if Lightroom is not running. Perhaps a Lightroom batch service. This is so that I can always  have up to date processed versions  of my images for use in my media center display. I would like to configure the Lightroom batch service to run weekly at say 2am every day, run a particular export function and export all new or modified images to a network share accessible by the media center. That way, I can always have access to cropped and edit images without manually doing exports all the time or having to remember which files I've edited and then export them. Also by doing this at off hours it would not slow down my computer while I'm using it.
    * Better profiles for Sony DSLRs and support for their picture styles the same way that Canon and Nikon camera are supported.
    * Teethering support for Sony DSLRs that have this feature
    * Support for parametric plugins -- Plugins that do not require the image to be exported before running.
    * Simple support for "picture frames" when exporting. Some way to apply a frame to an image as part of export with a dozen or so frames included and a way for 3rd parties to create more.
    * A better way to safely share catalogs or pictures between multiple computers/users in a networked environment.

    Did these come to you all at once, or have you been saving them up for a while?
    Anyway, Adobe *should* be able to handle long lists of FR, but another option is to break them up and submit them for voting on the new FR/Idea site that will shortly replace this one: (It was really hot for a while, but has cooled down lately...)

    They are already decoupled - you can update ACR independently for new camera support, however it's released at about the same frequency as Lightroom itself, so that doesn't help much. Perhaps this should be reworded: "Provide more timely ACR updates..."

    I've been complaining about this for a long time - ACR cache is worthless for me too - if dev image not in RAM cache, takes same amount of time to render whether in ACR disk cache or not. Some say ACR cache speeds things up for them - perhaps you need to *believe*...
    PS - After new motherboard upgrade, this went from 15 seconds to 3 seconds average.

    RC Importer supports this - its an import plugin that bypasses the import dialog box - not for everyone...

    Maybe the seeds of a good idea here, but may be worth some refinement/clarification - what would be searched? Would special syntax be supported? Personally, I mostly hate all 1-box search fields, because one never knows what's being searched and how, e.g. does it search the whole catalog?, is it case sensitive? On the other hand, I get the convenience factor... - I think if accompanied by help and/or the ability to pop up a dialog box for refinement or options, this might make a nice addition. Along these lines, I sometimes think a quick-smart-collection would be nice too - for when one wants to search 2 text fields, instead of just one. I keep a temporary smart collection just for this purpose, but still...
    HopeSpringsEternal2008 wrote:

    Change detecting export plugins have mostly solved this for me (and publishing for some folks), although adding export info (and metadata change info) to catalog for searching / sorting still sounds like a good idea to me...

    Yes, better export management would be welcome. Export Manager might help you (if you have multiple export destinations to update), but its not a panacea... Many of us ultimately "consume" our photos outside Lightroom, having the consumption copies kept up to date more fluidly would be good. Using change detecting export plugins (along with export-manager) and/or publishing helps..
    HopeSpringsEternal2008 wrote:

    Yep - much room for plugins to get better integrated with Lightroom proper, to participate in image enhancement, as well as other things...

    That would be nice. Although support for 3rd parties to add frames *upon export* already exists (export filter plugin + export post-process actions), as well as adding text overlays and such. But since its not built into Lightroom, one has to find them and configure them... And there is no good way to preview them in Lightroom... I think this would go nicely with the previous request - ability to feed image data to plugins for preview in Lightroom. Even if these updates were not built-into the dev module - i.e. weren't kept updated automatically whilst editing - just being able to click a 'see final' button or have it rolled into the build-previews function, so one could have post-process imaging plugins (with preview before export) - might be a nice compromise until true imaging plugins (that fit into dev pipeline) are supported.
    The end - for now...

  • Features I would like to see in Capacity IQ

    Hi all,
    I am currently implementing Capacity IQ in our virtual environment and I encounter some issue's. I know some probably will be solved by VCops however it is yet uncertain whether we will purchase that software.
    - I have 4 vCenters, so I need to log into Capacity IQ 4 times. This makes it hard to provide a Capacity Plan for over all my resources.
    - I have multiple hardware platforms in the same vCenter. Sometimes my managment would like to know what the remaining capacity is on a specific platform. I cannot select multiple clusters, so I need to provide a forecast myself.
    - Capacity IQ does not provide the intelligence for performing a what-if analysis on datacenter level.
    - Some of my clusters function as a DR test-cluster. Never running any machines only during the DR-test, which are scheduled frequently. I would like the option to exclude clusters in Capacity IQ's trend analysis. This way the DR-test does not mess up the trend analysis.
    - I cannot enter a custom account to schedule reports with(workaround logon to vCenter and schedule)
    - I need the reports to be written to a NFS/CIFS share somewhere, so I can serve them from there and anyone can go look for themselves.
    Any ideas with regards to these issue's are much appreciated!

  • I just inherited a 64GB ipad. I have passwords for the deceased person but would like to sync it with my mac osx.  Know nothing about ipads. Help please

    I just inherited a 64 GB ipad.  I have passwords for the deceased person but would like to reset everything and start new. I use a mac/0SX but know nothing about an ipad other than turning it on.  I am in the same household as the deceased person but does not seem to be recognizing the wireless setup.  Any help would be appreciated. Any recommendations as to where to start.

    That's really enough information. You can update this iPad to iOS 6.1.2. If there is a microphone icon next to the space bar on the keyboard, you have an iPad 3. But if you are saying that it hasn't been touched for over a year, it probably is not the iPad 3. The iPad 3 is one year old this week IIRC.
    If you want, you can go to Settings >General>About>Model to find the model number and it you Google that, you can find out which version of the iPad it is.
    I just wanted to see what iOS you would be able to update to. I'm not sure what else to tell you other than what we've already stated. You should set this up as new, update the iOS and then start all over again with you own iTunes content.
    The link that Eric posted would be a good place to start so that you can get an idea of what the iPad can do. If you want to restore the iPad back to factory settings, you will need to do this with iTunes on your Mac. You must be running OS X 10.6.8 at minimum and must be using iTunes 10.6.3 (I think) in order to syn with iTunes on the Mac.
    This explains how to restore to factory settings.

    if you are that uncomfortable trying to do this on your own, and if there is an Apple Store near you, make an appointment at an Apple Store Genius Bar and ask an Apple tech to help you with it. That is what they do. There is no charge for an Apple Store Genius Bar visit. The stores also offer classes for the iPad that you might find useful as well.
