It is most likely a security setting in your phone. I would suggest calling your service provider.

Facebook is changing. They are utilizing their ubiquitous reach to create demand so that they can use the information you give them as a draw for integrated partners like Spotify, Rhapsody, Netflix and Hulu. The way they deliver your information to developers and integrated partners is through a very concerning technology called open graph which creates a map of your preferences, friends and activities based on everything from your posts to your likes to what you might be listening to on Spotify right now.
In English that equals:
Facebook is giving all your information to any developer who asks for it and we let them because we feel like we can't live without their service. The depth of information they can access without your awareness is disturbing. Playing a game such as farmville exposes ALL your personal info to companies like Zynga, which they can then use to model game experiences in a way that will encourage you to spend money (Yes they do this).
Its worse than farmville though. Spotify, the hot new music service, now requires you to have a facebook account in order to sign up. When you sign up and use the service they have access to all your social information. I don't even have to give Radio Shack my phone number any more but this new breed of business wants to know EVERYTHING not just my phone number but who my significant other is, who my best friends are, what books I've read, movies I've seen, etc….
We participate because it makes human relationships easy. It's easy to contact people, its easy to keep the relatives up to date, it's easy to scream your opinions at the world. The question I struggle with is whether this ease of communication reduces the value of the communication, especially when it comes at the cost of our privacy. Privacy is something the modern world has valued for the last two hundred years, the US set the standard and now it's citizens are just giving it away to make their lives easy.
Do we value our privacy and intimacy in the relationships we hold close or is their more value in very one dimensional relationships with a couple hundred people and a complete loss of privacy. To me it feels as if it is a quality or quantity question.

@Squeak – You aren't missing anything. We don't have an image guide so to speak. The site resizes any image of any size to appropriate dimensions so size both physically and storage wise are not an issue to users.
As to nudity, we do not allow nudity on public photos. The age 18 requirement is representative of mixed acceptance of pole in different areas around the world. This requirement insures we do not run afoul of any laws or parents around the world.
You may post properly censored photos.

Just a quick test post.

@vamp79 – One that I have suggested to many people that they have had great luck with and that includes significantly more functionality than Windows Movie Maker is called Video Spin. It's free, and its made by a company called pinacle who has a professional level program as well. You can find it at http://www.videospin.com/Redesign/

@vamp79 – iMovie is a Macintosh only program. If you have a Mac, it came with iMovie.

Thanks for the show of appreciation!!! 🙂

The lessons work on about 75% of Android phones. In general if you can see the user videos you should be able to see the lessons.

@5 Butterflies – It doesn't seem that you are experiencing the exact same issue. If you are getting a message that says you are not authorized to access this file, your request is, most likely, being truncated on the client side.
It is important that everyone who is having video troubles contact me directly rather than posting in the forum since each person's situation is different.

Video is a very complex issue. There are multiple ways to stream it and multiple levels of redundancy that you can use, different encodings, different wrappers and the list goes on and on and on.
Many people will say "I can watch videos on youtube" but you have to realize they have a multi-billion dollar architecture and zero security. There are literally plugins that come on many computers that will let you download any Youtube video you want.
We have two edge locations in Australia delivering buffered/encoded video. If you are having difficulty accessing the videos on internet speed that is fast enough, and you are in Australia, one of two things is happening:
1) Your ISP is not properly reporting the location of your IP address and therefore you are most likely being delivered content from a continent other that Australia.
2) Many people have taken to using Google's enhanced DNS servers which can be setup in your router or computer (if you don't know what I'm talking about and you don't have a geek in your house this is not the case). These enhanced DNS servers also do not properly report your location and hence you will often be served content from much farther away than neccessary.In either case you will experience severe latency. Youtube, Vimeo and other major services don't experience these problems because they don't wrap any true security around their video streams.
Regardless please contact me with further issues.

@Senrysa – Could you check your email spam folder and then email me. I have verified that our server is connecting to and sending emails to your ISP. Please email me directly about this though as it will make it easier to trouble shoot without bothering other people.

I would suggest trying to work with your neighbors, either make personal visits to a manager at each office or invite them all to an open house. Try and establish a dialog with each location, oftentimes this is all it takes to create a good working relationship.
I would warn you to be very careful about making assumptions about their prejudice. While this is common it can setup boundaries to communication that can be difficult to overcome.

This thread has gotten a touch off topic. If it could be reigned in to a polite discussion of Canadian competitions rather than a back and forth argument it would be greatly appreciated.
I would also encourage people to be careful with one of the topics here. The law of trademark rules worldwide, there is no disputing it unless you have prior art showing that you used a name or concept first.

@emotioncatcher – You are allowed to post pretty much anything in the forum. Even youtube links to your own tutorials. What we don't allow is upload of tutorials to our video system.

So is everyone in Vegas a Vegan then? I like my critters for supper, I don't know if I can deal with that 🙂
