Yet another victim of the software upgrade

My shuffle was working perfectly until I upgraded the software. Now, my computer doesn't recognize the shuffle and obviously, neither does iTunes. Have tried the Apple suggestions and found them to be quite useless. Has anyone figured out how to make Apple's products work for them? I would love any help that you can throw my way. Thanks!!!

Yet another victim of the Verizon blacklisting

I, too, am unable to connect to pop.verizon.net or smtp.verizon.net from my current location. This is not a problem with my account as I can read email through the web interface.
It really appears that Verizon is blacklisting many portions of the internet and refusing to service email requests from there. That they are doing this indicates that there is some sort of emergency. However, it would be very useful to have some information about what is going on so that we don't spend so much time trying to fix the situation.

From the long thread at http://forums.verizon.com/t5/Verizon-net-Email/No-response-from-pop-verizon-net-or-smtp-verizon-net/... and other complaints, it strongly appears that Verizon cut off POP and SMTP access from a large portion of the internet, maybe including all foreign ISPa, on or about 17 September 2014.
The problem occurs when you have Verizon email but don't use always Verizon as your ISP. Without changing any settings on your computer, you can no longer access the Verizon POP or SMTP servers. The web interface to your Verizon email is unaffected. If your internet connection hasn't changed, then this would have happened on or about 17 September 2014. If you changed your internet connection, for examples between work and home or due to travel, then your inability to access Verizon email could have happened at the time of the switch.
There may have been good reasons for Verizon to make this restrict access in this way. For example, Verizon's email servers may have been successfully attacked, and Verizon then restricted access so as to stem the attack.
Verizon does not appear to be saying anything about either just the simple fact of the cutoff, the reasons for it, the hopefully temporary workaround, or when a resolution can be expected. It is the silence of Verizon that is the most severe problem, causing considerable expense on the part of its customers. Verizon may believe that its silence is helping to solve the problem, but past experience has shown that being forthright is the much better policy.
I currenntly use Verizon FIOS for cable, phone, and internet, but I am seriously considering changing because of this poor behaviour of Verizon.
Yes they were attacked. Many customers were getting their ID's locke by these attacks. Yes they may have to whitelist your ISP or IP address. They initially blocked all overseas, but will whitelist as they are contacted by customers. They are currently suggesting you try the MYFIOS app (if you have it) to see if you can access your mail.
If you use the Yahoo interface YOU MUST now add @verizon..net to your userid.
If you cannot access try contacting them directly or if you cannot, PM one of the Admins on the boards. NOTE, NOT THE CL"S, we are not Verizon employess but just peers like yourselves.

ITunes can't download the software upgrade for my Ipod

I have a new Ipod Nano 8GB. When I connected to Itunes it tells me that there is a new software update available for it (I think it was version 1.1). ITunes then tries to download it.
The trouble is that I don't have broadband, and have no plans at present. My dial-up connection took over 3 hours to download ITunes when I first got the Ipod. I would be quite happy to let it take as long as that to download the software upgrade for the nano but I tried several times and the line kept dropping.
Is it available anywhere as a stand-alone download? (I can download using another machine I have access to which cannot have itunes installed on it)
Thanks,
Stewart

If y are getting an error that yu can't contact the update server then:
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
Otherwise why can't our download the update?

Is the software upgrade img 1.9 coming to motorola boxes

Is the software upgrade img 1.9 coming to motorola boxes or just cisco boxes, and when is it coming to SE Pa?

All boxes (Moto and Cisco) will be upgraded to 1.9a. When is another story. SE PA (VHO8 was supposed to get it last week, but something stopped the push. Any dates would be a guess.

Phone not working after the software upgrade

I performed the software upgrade as indicated by the phone in the notifications.
One the phone rebooted, I proceeded to enter my email accounts and it froze on a white screen with a spinning wheel.
I rebooted and it continued to freeze.
I took the battery out, rebooted, still can't add email accounts. It freezes in the setting section. I actually can't change any settings.
If I reply to a text, the screen freezes black.
If I try to reply to an email, the screen says, "Could not display this message"
I have wiped it three times, powered off a billion times and still keeps freezing. The update has been nothing but grief.
Any advice??

Since the software upgrade connecting to hotspot from my iphone with my ipad is not working.

Since the software upgrade , I cannot connect my ipad2 to my iphone 4s via the phones hotspot. Regular wifi is ok. Is anyone else having this problem? I tried resetting the network settings on the ipad, but it didn't help. The ipad sees the hotspot, but doesn't connect. My phone service is with Verizon.

I think I solved the problem. I did a network reset on both the ipad and iphone. So far so good.

Adding reminders to my calendar items is no longer an option after the software upgrade. I also can't get to day and week view, only month view. What's a possible solution?

Agreed. I have a couple thousand forms in my system. No sooner did I get through many of them after ugrading to CC, Adobe upgraded again. It begins all over again. [sigh]

I'm having all kinds of problems since loading Lion and I really wish I hadn't bought it yet. Even after the software update today, 1. my modem still won't work, 2. Photoshop Elements produces muddy photo prints, etc. Anybody at Apple listening?

10.7 was horrible unstable so I waited until 10.7.1 and tried it again. Well I have to say that it is still a defective OS. I am reverting to Snow as we speak from my carbon clone copy.. This is really the worst OSX I have ever used. It gives me random Kernel panics for no reasons, unstable airport and hundreds of small issues that are just not necessary. For instance I can't use QuickTime in Lion to trim a videoclip ( the UI goes mad and the trimslider becomes inoperable and hangs the Player window ) while in Snow it is no problem. Itunes gives me crackling sound when the equalizer is turned on, Graphical glitches in Photoshop, games crashing, Preview.app not working with some pdfs, so I need Adobes reader which I never used before.. It is definately not ripe for mass usage. Might 10.7.2 or 10.7.3 fix it, but not yet.
* and just for the records : the hardware is absoltely ok. Because in Snow it works as it should. ( So many Lion fanbois are talking : "your Ram is defect", defintely NOT. - Lion is defect! ).
Shame on you Apple.

Here is a link to buy Snow Leopard, but you need to wait to use it because the Apple Store is being updated, probably because of the meeting Apple has called for today.

Anyone having problems seeing (any) content in movies since the software upgrade

After performing the software upgrade no longer pulling any content in to the movie channel and even though I can still see "top movies" on the home page when I click through the second page doesn't load. Internet connection seems fine and trailers are loading and streaming fine, is it just me?

I'm having the same problem. I called Apple and they gave me three options. One was pay a $19.95 fee for this one time fix & they could help me or go to itunes or apple's tech websites! Wow Apple isn't what it use to be. Also the lady I spoke with was rude. We're an Apple lover but not sure for how long!

Why bother with the software upgrade BT ?

I've still got the old silver BTVision box, I've had it since launch which is quite a few years I can tell you !!. At the start the software was very dodgy, even watching TV had its problems. After some very overdue software upgrades the box now runs as sweet as a nut.
My question is, with the new HD Youview box on the horizon (which I will be getting day one), why bother upsetting the applecart ??. The old boxes are running fine so why introduce a new slow, buggy UI to a platform that is on its way out ?. What is BT trying to achieve here apart from forcing an upgrade on people that apparently doesnt provide any extra features and wipes all of your recordings ?.

If it's in use by non-beta testing customers, as it appears to be, then it is not in "testing mode". Can I stick with the old look please!
And yet you want multi-room. Which one cannot have on the WinCE platform as it has no flexibility. But the new platform will, eventually.

Is the software upgrades still available in FEBRUARY??

hey,
i'm currently travelling overseas and can't install the software in the computer i use regularly.
does anyone know if we can still purchase the upgrades in FEB or maybe MARCH?
or maybe we can download the upgrades and save it to a hard disk first and then install it in our PC later????
thnx,
mint.kt

I'm sure the updates will be available indefinitely. There's no reason whatsoever that they would no longer offer the update, that would just be a loss of revenue for them. I'm sure there are people who are going to hold off for quite some time, but will eventually pay for the added apps, and apple will be glad to accept there order whenever they come around.

Why am I no longer able to use my Logitech keyboard since the software upgrade y'day?

Why am I no longer able to use my Logitech keyboard since the software update last night?

Hey atinaaw,
I would first suggest uninstalling the software that is already on your computer for the printer. I have included the document 'Uninstalling the Printer Software'. Please choose the option for Windows 8, as it will be the same steps for Windows 8.1.
After the uninstall is completed. Please download and run the Printer Install Wizard. This will make sure that you do get the most current and compatible software for your computer, and printer.
Please let me know if you are able to install, and use your printer successfully, thank you.

Why doesn't my 3-week old MacBook Air 13" shutdown in about 3 seconds anymore? It now takes about 10 seconds to do so. Last major activity I can think of is the software upgrade which I did yesterday.

My MacBook Air is barely a month and it suddenly shuts down way slower than it used to. It used to take just 3 seconds. I do not have much installed, except for an HP Printer and the MS Office suite. It shut down just as fast even after I installed them.. I noticed it shut down at least about 10 seconds sometime after I updated the software yesterday to Mac OS X version 10.7.1. Is this nornal? I would prefer the snappier shut down process.:-(
