Yet another dead mic with Win7 64-bit upgrd - Portege M700

Title says it all.  Mics used to work fine on this machine under Windows XP. Under Win7, except as I note below, the mic has inaudibly low volume with any Control Panel Sound settings. I've spent huge amounts of time trying to solve this. After seeing all the similar posts (with no solutions, it seems) from users of many different Toshiba laptops, I'm about to start spreading the meme across the Internet that Toshiba laptops can't use mics.
I started by upgrading to Win7 then adding just the 64-bit drivers I need from Toshiba's support site. No joy.  Then I started from a clean Win7 upgrade (64-bit Home) using Toshiba's upgrade script.  Nope.  Installed latest generic drivers from Realtek.  Hmm .. some progress, maybe: now with some Sound settings I can get slightly more volume but the mic input is drowned out by white noise-ish hissing.  All right, disable any other sound sources I can adjust: disable Chicony webcam driver from Device Manager. Hmm, now mike volume can get fairly high but the hissing still drowns it out.
Toshiba: At some level, this is a problem between Microsoft and Realtek, I know. But you can help us.  MS changed the audio model significantly since Win XP, including (god knows why!) giving up the little audio mixer app that used to let you adjust levels for different sound sources.  And Realtek's generic driver doesn't provide one either.  So just give us a way to adjust levels for different audio inputs!  Maybe I haven't Googled sufficiently and some hacker out there has one, but I kinda doubt it ... if it requires driver-level access as I suspect, Microsoft's new DRM-motivated hammerlock limiting us to signed drivers prevents us from fixing this ourselves.  (It also means we can't access our ext3 partitions without extreme measures, but that's another rant.)  So CAN SOME TOSHIBA ENGINEER PLEASE LET MANAGEMENT KNOW THEY'RE ABOUT TO DESTROY THEIR LAPTOP FRANCHISE OVER AUDIO ISSUES?  Just cut, paste, and forward a couple dozen of these threads.  Sure, it's a career risk but (wo)man up to it!  Audio really matters to laptop buyers nowadays ... without Skype, I'll have do carry Yet Another Device when I'm traveling.  Heck, I've personally bought at least 6 Toshiba laptops over the years and I'm starting to shop for a replacement.  Anything but Toshiba, I'm sorry to say :-(
Oh, in case somebody has an idea of something else I can try, the specific model is PPM70U-1KC01DB

  • Yet another MacBook Pro with display issues (NVdia chip)

    Exactly one year and 1 week after purchase, my video controller started freaking out. So just 1 week out of warranty, my display started flickering, blinking, showing garbled clumps of pixels and got progressively worse over the last week until, now, it locks up and/or reboots after about 15 minutes of uptime.
    I have:
    - installed all updates, including firmware
    - reset PRAM
    - re-seated RAM
    - replaced RAM
    - used SMC FanControl to try and keep the GPU cool
    - parked the MacBook in front of the fan/air conditioner in an attempt to keep the GPU cool
    - ran the Hardware Test, which returned a faulty video controller
    None of the above have had any positive effect whatsover.
    I've dug through these forums and hunted around the rest of the net for more info. Every symptom points to the NVidia GeForce issue. It seemed to be heat related. Maybe it was at first (even though max temps were never over 180 F), but after just one more day it doesn't seem to matter anymore. The machine is just FUBAR.
    Tomorrow, I'm taking it in to the Apple store for service. Everything I've read here tells me it'll be at $1,000 logic board replacement since I'm a week out of warranty. Needless to say, if I come home tomorrow with a $1,000 receipt AND no laptop I'm going to be pretty upset.
    What really concerns me is that, if I have to get the logic board replaced, they'll just put in yet another faulty board with another NVdia chip that will do the same thing all over again. There has to be another option, short of just getting a new iMac or tower with an ATI card instead. What else can I do?

    http://noizesurge.com/downloads/gpu2.jpg - incidentally my computer had completely frozen at this point.
    I'm pretty sure from observing these types of glitches that this is a hardware fault. I shall ring Apple on Monday and hopefully they can pick it up and sort it all out! Does anyone know roughly how long a turnaround is in the UK?
    Yes, your video controller is toast. That's exactly how mine looked.
    Just to make certain, run the Hardware Test:
    - Put in DVD 1 that came with your MacBook Pro.
    - Shut down
    - Restart, holding the D key
    - You'll be put into test mode, run the default test (no need to run the robust test at this stage)
    I'm betting it will return a message that looks like: "4VDC/1/40000003: videocontroller"
    If so, your logic board will have to be replaced.
    The Apple Store I went to (Michigan Ave, Chicago) told me it would take 5-7 days. I'm not sure what UK times would be like, but I'd expect a little longer.

    Incidentally, people are saying that they've have logic boards and what not replaced only for the problem to reoccur. Does this mean nVidia haven't properly fixed the issue?
    Correct. Nvidia hasn't done a thing about this (that I'm aware of), and Apple seems to be putting the same logic boards with the faulty Nvidia chips back in.
    Until we see a new/refreshed line of MacBook Pro's, I think we're stuck.

  • Is DAMO has issues with win7 64 bit

    Hello, 
    we are impelmenting DAMO for our users, it works fine with Win XP/7  32 bit, but got some issue with win7 64 bit, its not creating MAPI profile, at the end of installation it shows
    error, "Failed to create a new MAPI profile. ", After that  it displays "Setup encountered an error
    and failed to create a new MAPI profile. You will need to reinstall IBM Lotus Domino Access for Microsoft Outlook." 
    please pass solution if you have any...
    Thanks!
    vipul 

    Do you have a virus scanner, can you exclude .nsf files from scanning.
    When installing the damo client software do not put in the normal Program files area as I believe windows 7 will not allow permissions to be changed without asking every time, so tis could be causing issues with temp files etc at setup.
    When setting up user profile it will ask where to save the user files, change from default profile area to some other created area of the disk you know you have access to, suggest making a path c:\damo\username\
    Also install lotus notes normal client and make sure your ID is ok using basic client.
    Thanks.

  • Z22 sync with Win7 64 bit via IR: error that port is in use by another application.

    I've read the solution for syncing a Z22 with Win7/Vista 64-bit. I have a USB-to-IrDA adapter that is working. I've set Hotsync on both the Z22 and PC to Infrared. When I start to sync, I get a message on the Z22: "Unable to initiate HotSync operation because the port is in use by another application". I can beam files from the Z22 to the PC with no problem.  I'm not aware of any other app using the port. (When I put the Z22 in range of the IR adapter, the "send files" window comes up on the PC. I've tried syncing with this window open and closed, and the error's the same either way.) Any suggestions?
    Post relates to: Palm Z22
    Message Edited by jpendle on 12-01-2009 01:27 PM

    We followed a suggestion from another post.  And I wanted to add it here since it helped us after a lot of struggling.  We connected/synced a Z22 to windows 7 64 bit PC via a IR adapter Startech USB2IRX. Using a driver downloaded directly from their website, not the CD that comes with the adapter, driver installation was smooth. The installation application installed it without problems. (I also tried an adapter from cables unlimited IrDA wireless bridge. Then I had to install the drivers for windows vista 64bit manually onto my win 7 64 bit machine.)  After driver installation, we were getting an error indicating that the port is in use by another application.  And we were stuck until I read a post which suggests a soft-reset on the palm.  After that it was smooth sailing.
    Palm really is going the way of the dinosaur-otherwise they would have had a usb driver for windows 7 64 at this point. But it you need to as I did you should be able to sync your device.

  • Yet another export issue with Aperture 3

    Judging by a search of topics, there seem to be a myriad of problems associated with getting files out of Aperture, some of which represent occult setting issues, others which seem to be actual bugs.  I've run into an issue which seems to defy categorization, and I'm not sure if it's me doing something wrong, or if it is actually yet another bug with this software.  I've been an Aperture user since 1.0 and I have to say the current version I'm running (3.4.3) is by far the worst yet.  Anyway, enough whining.  Here are the issues:
    I'm running Aperture on a 6 core Mac Pro with Lion 10.7.5.  There are two thing happening. 
    1.  Exporting JPEGs is INCREDIBLY slow - perhaps as long as 4 or 5 minutes for a 3MB file. 
    2.  This is the one driving me batty right now.  Tried exporting a batch of images as JPEGs at the 50% original size setting.  The master files are large 16 bit TIFF images from Nikon D800 RAW files, post-processed in Nik HDR Efex Pro 2.  They are 80-100MB in size.  When I export the images to a file on my Desktop, it consistently exports 6- 10 KB thumbnails.  I've checked and rechecked my export settings and can find nothing amiss there.  Has anyone else had a similar experience?  Could the view I'm working in have anything to do with this?  I work 95% of the time in split view.
    Thanks,
    Russ

    I agree that there re a lot of posts about exporting, but a very large number of them refer to the same thing, and it's not a bug, but rather a misunderstanding.
    For instance:
    Tried exporting a batch of images as JPEGs at the 50% original size setting.
    Okay.
    The master files are large 16 bit TIFF images from Nikon D800 RAW files, post-processed in Nik HDR Efex Pro 2
    Not relevant.
    They are 80-100MB in size. 
    Not relevant either.
    Why?
    Because size refers to the dimensions of the image. So a 1,000 x 1,000 pixel image exported at 50% will turn out as 500 x 500 pixels.
    Were you expecting a jpeg between 40 and 50 MB? That's Jpeg quality or the amount of compression applied to the image. And as you're compressing a lossless format (tiff) to a lossy one, and one with an aggressive compression algorithm, he resulting Jpeg, even at high quality, will be much, much smaller, more likely in the 6 - 8 MB range.
    That's the nature - and indeed the point - of Jpegs.
    So, if you're getting 6 - 10 kb images, you're exporting at a very low Jepg Quality.
    This may also explain why it's taking so long to export. Getting rid on 99.99% of the data and compressing into 10kb is always going to take time.

  • Memory Leak Issue With Win7 64 bit and Youtube.

    I have a Win7 64 bit using IE9 with version 11.4.402.265 installed. 4 MB installed.
    Whenever I go to Youtube or Liveleak, and watch videos, over time it uses up to 4gigs of my memory! Even if I close the window, it does not free up the memory until I Ctrl/Alt/Delete and shut down the window(s).
    I normally only keep open 1-2 windows. Google toolbar is about the only thing installed. I can open 5 and more tabs, but as long as the site does not use flash, I don't have issues and each window usually uses under 200k memory watching them in task manager.
    When I go to open and watch a youtube video, it slowly climbs to 200k and within an hour, I can be at 2 gigs or more memory and up to 4 gigs within 2 hours (or sometimes much sooner). Closing the window does not release the memory until I end task on it and then after a minute or so, the memory seems to clear and everything is back to normal.
    I searched the forums and seems lots of users, report memory leaks, some using yahoo toolbar installed, which is not my case. I do use yahoo as my e-mail address, no idea if that is related or not. I had the same issue when I had the prior Flash version installed, this has been going on for months. Right now having only this window open, using 129, 192 memory. If I open one more window (using the 64 or 32 bit browser) and start youtube, the memory in that window keeps climbing about 50-100kb a second, so it adds up quickly. I have kaspersky running in the background and that is about it other then my nvida driver setup.
    Really frustrating that so many people here and across the internet have reported this. I did have IE8 a few weeks ago and still had the same issue, upgraded to IE9 to see if that helped.
    Interesting side note, if I pause a video, it slows way down on the memory leak, but still rises at a slower pace. I don't know if this is an IE thing or Flash. I have had this setup since 2009 and don't recall having issues with IE7. I use Youtube so much as a teaching instrument as a music teacher, so constantly have lessons going on it.
    Thanks and hope someone has come up with something. I also build computers and have done some programming, so I could modify a file if needed with clear instructions.

    This could be similar to bug https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3334814

  • Yet another major gripe with APE - restricting connection to home network

    Yet another serious issue I have with APE is the fact that since very often, the computer just can't see the base station (even when it is located 30 inches from it...) it will just automatically connect to the next available open wifi network, which happens to be my neighbor's... that way I often finding myself surfing someone's else's unsecured network and it's ******* me off.
    I tried to delete all wireless networks from system preferences/network/Airport but this does not makes a difference. Any idea on how to restrict my computer to the APE or at least have Mac OS warn me every time before it connects to an unsecured wireless network?
    Thanks.

    Somewhat easy: I'm assuming you're using Leopard, mainly because I ran through the options from leopard. Other versions of OS X may have slightly different placement or names...
    Click on the airport icon in the menu bar.
    Choose "Open Network Preferences"
    Select "Airport"
    There's a checkbox labeled "Ask to join new networks" Make sure it is enabled.
    Select "advanced..." (it's a button, lower right)
    You can change the connection order by dragging your network to the top of the list.
    You can also click on a connection you don't want, then click on the '-' button below it to remove that connection. (and at least the first time, the computer will ask you if you want to connect)
    You can go a step futher, by de-selecting the checkbox labeled "Remember any network this computer has joined" That way it won't add anything to your list of 'remembered' networks.

  • Itunes does not recognise ipad 2 with win7 64 bit but the computer recognises the ipad 2 as a camera. Works OK with win7 32 bit.

    I have tried to sync both ipod and ipad2 (new) with itunes running on win 7 64 bit. I have all latest versions installed on all machines.
    The ipod and ipad are just not recognised in itunes.
    I have an old win7 32 bit system on the same machine and everything works perfectly.
    Any ideas welcome.

    This was the answer to all my problems, once i updated the drivers all good! My iPad kept insisting I didnt have the 64bit itunes (which i did) and when I checked the files I was supposed to have as per the link instructions, I had none of them. Disappointed I had to turn to some random files off a blog rather than having apple actually provide useful help. As long as they are making money though :Z

    Hi Amit
    We also have this issue with weblogic webservices. Did you get any resolution for this issue.
    When the service is executed for lesser number of hits, all the responses are processed properly. But as load (Number of hits for the same service) increases, few responses are failed to be parsed in the web service client. We could confirm that the producer responds with proper content type (text/xml)
    Any help or pointers will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Yet another dead g5.

    Alright guys. i've had my g5 since 05. Ive run it pretty hard since, but have had no issues at all until last december/jan, when openGL just quit working, the thing got real slow, DVD drive quit alltogether, and i had no network...took it to apple, and they told me the logic board went..replaced it, and all was well
    So today i wake up, and i go to wake up my G5...and i get..nothing...yea it turns on, but no screen...fans run, hard drives spin up
    So i power down, power back up, and i get fans, no chime, and 3 blinking LEDs. ALright, fine, i know that means ram. So i spend the next 20 minutes removing ram, testing it, matching it, testing other ram, etc...
    At one point it did boot, when i ran it with 2x512, and i unplugged the DVD drive, but i couldnt get it to come back after that.
    Ive tried resetting the SMU/PMU. Dont even bother telling me try open firmware or zap pram, cause i cant get to the open firmware screen.
    Now, i am seeing a TON of these posts for G5s. Is apple going to do anything for us? or are we to expect only a few years out of our new machines til they die and we have to buy new ones?
    Also, since apple replaced my logic board, does that mean my serial number changed? as far as i know the machine is out of warranty, since they only added a 90 day one on with the new board..and that was replaced last april..
    any ideas? i hate PCs and this experience doesn't fill me with confidence in getting a new mac...that is if i could, since i'm flat broke thanks to the economy, with plenty of projects coming up that i need my mac for, but hey, doesn't look like thats going to happen.

    Well guys after a VERY long day, i got home, called apple, and that began part 2 of my long day.
    I first called their support line, politely gave them my info, and the first technician claimed my serial number was invalid. shrugs i explained the problem, and he said he had to put me on hold to talk to his supervisor...yea, well, being put on hold, is really just being told "we're going to hang up on you."
    I made 3 more calls. 1 more at tech service, 2 more at consumer relations, all the same result. On one of them, i heard someone pickup the phone while i was on hold, then they scrambled a bit, and hung up! I couldn't believe this!
    So out of desparation, i called the Apple store i bought it from. Only way you can talk to someone is if you want to inquire about directions, so i told them i needed directions to someone who wouldn't hang up on my issue. The guy laughed, but said there wasn't much they could do, other than patch me back to where i was. I figured hey, why not, atleast this way, they dont see my number on caller id, they see the apple store.
    I was connected to a very nice girl named Lisa. She took down more info than just my name and serial...I could tell she was in better spirits. So after some small talk, and being told she should be charging me per minute since my applecare was up, she decided to hear my story. She gave me a few things to try, and just to comply, i did them step by step with no luck. Firmware reset, etc..
    So she agreed, it was the logic board. She did the "let me talk to a product specialist" i jokingly asked her not to hang up, and she assured me she wouldn't. About 20 minutes passed, and she returned, with bad news, saying this specialist wouldn't budge, since the board died after apple's 90 days. I again said, "Well, i know this, but you can't tell me apple makes boards meant to last 8 or 9 months?" she said she agreed, and we'd take a shot in the dark at the Consumer Relations department. So i go back on hold for at least another solid 20 minutes....She returned, and said the guy was going to give me a break, that he stepped away, she just wanted to assure me she was still there.
    So when she finally came back, she told me that "apple has agreed to atleast pay for the part" I was amazed! I have to pay labor, which im sure i STILL cant afford, but ill take labor over 1,000$ logic board. I jokingly asked if apple could just send me the board, and i could figure out how to get it in there myself, and she laughed and said "ask em, you never know"
    So we setup an appointment at my closest apple store, and gave me the case number and exception code, so now this thursday, at 11am, i'm taking my mac back in for fixin.
    Its looking like a happy ending as of this current minute!

  • [SOLVED] Yet another microphone capture with Intel HD Audio 82801H

    Hello,
    I have a macbook pro 4.1.
    I have been using Gentoo for years and after wanting to change, I decided to go for Arch Linux.
    So I reinstalled my macbook with Arch and so far, I can't make the audio work correctly.
    My problems are:
    - no microphone working
    - no switch between speakers and headphones when I plug them
    Here is the output of lspci:
    lspci | grep -i audio
    00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
    My modprobe.d/soud.conf:
    alias char-major-116 snd
    alias char-major-14 soundcore
    alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
    alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
    alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
    alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
    alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
    #alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
    #alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
    options snd-hda-intel model=mb5 enable_msi=1 power_save=0
    #options snd-hda-intel model=laptop
    alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
    alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
    alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
    As you can see, I tried several "model=" options (mb, laptop, ...). Only the "mb5" allows me to hear something from the speaker.
    I discussed about my Gentoo experience because on this same laptop, I had it working perfectly on a kernel 2.6.39.
    So I thought maybe some option in the ARCH kernel conflicts with it (I am kind of desperate).
    I therefore compiled a custom kernel and removed a lot of modules that were useless for me... still no luck!
    As a note, on Gentoo, I didn't have to specify the model.
    To be fully complete in my description, on Gentoo, I was on 64 bits and here, I'm on 32 (for different reasons).
    And I have Pulseaudio installed, not that I want to but as I like Gnome 3... But even without (unsintalling Gnome 3 and Pulseaudio), I still had the same issues, so to me, it doesn't seem to be coming from Pulseaudio, but I could be wrong.
    And to answer the obvisous: no I don't have anything muted on alsamixer except "Line" and "Beep".
    Thanks in advance for your help because it drives me a bit crazy...

    Welcome to Arch! I run both Arch and Gentoo and like them both. I have my doubts that your sound problem is an Arch specific issue (but stranger things have happened).
    If my google-fu is any good, it seems that the general consensus on getting ALSA to behave with a Macbook Pro 4.1 is:
       options snd_hda_intel model=mbp3
    Here's just one (old) example:

  • Basic host scan (CSD) won't work with Win7 (64-Bit)

    Hi all,
    We got a customer with an ASA5510, Cisco Secure Desktop (3.6.5005) and Host Scan Engine 3.0.07042 for SSL Web-VPN.
    There are some basic host scan checks, like windows process names / AV during login.
    On the endpoints with Windows 7 (32-Bit) and Windows XP, the "debug dap trace" shows, that the host scan recognize the status of the process.
    On Windows 7 (64-bit) unfortunately not. The AV check is working properly.
    Is there an issue with 64-Bit?
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Norbert

    since bootcamp allows windows to run natively, it's not an imac issue, but rather an issue with your windows, so you probably get better answers in a windows forum or the crysis forums.
    in any case, installing newer ATI drivers (ati.com) might help, but it's just a wild guess

  • Audition 1.5 with Win7 64 bit

    Hey all.
    Complete novice here.  Been using Audition for a couple of years to record and mix music.  Fantastic program!
    I recently upgraded from XP SP3 to Win7 64 Pro.   Audition loads (with the Unknown Publisher error (no biggy)), but when I go to record, I just get spikes.   I've reduced my line in to about 20.  No difference.  When using Monitor Level, everything looks normal.  The levels are following along well.   Hit record and it's just spikes.  Playback is spikes too.  It's as if only the Peaks are recording.
    I have no idea what to do.  I suppose I could upgrade to Audition 3, but I'm not sure that is the solution.   I'm using Onboard sound (Realtek ALC892).
    Thoughts, suggestions?
    THANKS!

    Almost certainly a Realtek driver error - try checking for a revised one.

  • Yet another DEAD Airport base station !

    Encore une borne Airport express "morte" !
    Et bien, apparemment Apple à décidé de fermer la possibilité d'ajouter des commentaires sur ce "topic" (sujet)
    Airport express "morte" - la diode ne s'allume même plus ( http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=222954&tstart=30)
    Je voulais pourtant simplement ajouter ma borne à la liste des victimes car elle est décédée après environ 20 mois...
    Il semble qu'Apple essaye de cacher ce problème mais la colère se répand et ils seront probablement bientôt obligés de reconnaître le problème en étendant la garantie de leur produit affecté par un vice caché.
    Allons Apple, soyez honnêtes ! Ne laissez pas tomber vos clients fidèles.

    Hello to all !
    1/ Let's keep this faulty or dead APX (Airport express) posts on top of this forum so other affected users may find them more easily when looking for a diagnosis .
    2/ Important !!! Always make screen shots of your posts. If your posts are erased by Apple sent them to me ([email protected]) I may post them on my website (I fortunately have almost unlimited bandwidth and space)
    3/ Also, doing so, Apple will no longer be able to erase or lock post on this topic without getting ridiculed.
    Always post a copy of your post / reports on the Macbidouille.com / Hadmac.com forums.

    I'm sure it's a growing problem for Apple, otherwise they wouldn't have erased / locked some posts about this APX sudden death.
    Unfortunately many users with dead APX may not read Macbidouille.com / Hadmac.com and so may not be aware of the problem, they may have thought they had bad luck. This means that the already large amount of over 700 cases (counted by Macbidouille.com / Hadmac.com) probably represent only a fraction of the real amount of APX sudden death cases...
    Spread the word around you so more people become aware of this !
    I think it's really about time to contact consumer protection organizations as well as the mainstream medias and our own lawyers.
    If we all fight together, Apple will be forced to recognize the problem and apply an extended warranty to Airport express.

    Bonjour à tous !
    1/ Essayons de garder ce "topic" (sujet) en haut de la page du forum dédié à Airport express, d'autres clients lésés pourront ainsi plus facilement trouver les infos nécessaires à un bon diagnostic.
    2/ IMPORTANT !!! Prenez toujours une capture d'écran de vos posts ! Si ces derniers sont effacés par Apple envoyez les moi ([email protected]) et je les publierai sur mon site (j'ai heureusement de la bande passante et de l'espace disque presque illimité)
    3/ En procédant de cette manière Apple ne sera pas en mesure d'effacer vos posts / rapports sans se ridiculiser encore plus !
    Postez toujours une copie de vos posts sur les forums de Macbidouille.com / Hadmac.com.
    a) http://forum.macbidouille.com/index.php?showtopic=192517&st=0

    Je suis persuadé que cette affaire dérange de plus en plus Apple sinon ils n'auraient pas, malhonnêtement, tenté de la cacher.
    Malheureusement tous les clients Apple lésés ne lisent pas Macbidouille.com / Hadmac.com et beaucoup d'entre eux mettent certainement le décès prématuré de leur borne sur le compte de la malchance. Ceci prouve certainement que l'affaire est bien plus grave que les 700 cas recensés par Macbidouille.com / Hadmac.com et que le nombre de cas de mort subite des APX est largement supérieur.
    Faites connaître ce problème autour de vous, passez l'information !
    Il est vraiment temps de passer à l'action et de contacter les organisations de consommateurs, les médias et la justice.
    Si nous nous unissons et nous battons nous arriverons sans doute à forcer Apple à reconnaître le problème et à accorder une extension de garantie à tous ceux qui sont touchés.
    Salutations à tous !
