Successfully replaced my AirPods Pro for manufacturing defect

Successfully replaced my AirPods Pro
After coming to conclusion that my AirPods Pro has manufacturing defect and may be eligible for FREE replacement, I have scheduled my visit to Apple Service Center. Before visiting Apple service center, I was little bit anxious about whether my AirPods Pro would be rejected due to increased scratches and few dents. However, to my surprise the AirPods Pro was accepted with just mention of usable scratches and they would call me for further updates. Following is the list of updates throughout the replacement process
  • Day 1 - No update: After accepting my AirPods Pro to validate whether the product is eligible for FREE replacement, I was notified that they would call me about the status of the repair and would be notified if the claim were rejected. Post this communication, I was little bit nervous and was anxiously waiting for the updates. However, there was no update from the service center and after follow-up call late in the evening, I was notified that the update would be communicated in the day.
  • Day 2 & 3 – Product sent to Apple for Validation: Again, on the second day, there was no communication or update from the service center and I anxiously skipped the entire day hoping for a call from the service center. Post no update from the service center on the second day, I called up directly to service center to check on the update and was notified that the product has been sent to Apple technical center for validation and would take 5-6 days for acknowledgment.
  • Day 5 – Status update in 2 days and Apple has registered shipment: I was anxiously waiting for past 5 days to get a status update for my AirPods Pro replacement and there was not a single communication from service center. I was not able to wait for another couple more days and I called up service center directly to check on the update. The response from service center was that Apple has made shipment regarding my service case and they would know only after it reaches the service center in next few days, and I would be notified about it at the earliest.
  • Day 6 – Product replaced and can be collected: After knowing that there was a shipment from Apple, I was even more anxious to know more about the status of my service case and called up service center for the update. To my surprise I was notified that my both AirPods Pro headphones are replaced for FREE, and I can collect the product at my convenience.

I was completely out of the world after knowing that my AirPods Pro was replaced for FREE, even after using it for past 18 months (about 1 and a half years) and completely new headphones would extend the life of the product by 3 more years. To read more such articles please visit “G R Team Sites”

What was the reason behind the price hike of M2 MacBook Air in India?

price hike of M2 MacBook Air in India?
With the recent announcement of M2 MacBook Air and Pro models, Apple has also made a shocking revelation for users in India with drastic increase in prices for both the models. While most users may have felt that the price increase is due to the tax implications, then they are wrong about the predictions and there are several factors which Apple might have considered for this price change. Following is some of my predictions about why Apple might have increased their pricing for users in India
  • Rising inflation and future tax rate hikes: Now that inflations are sky high in US and there are high fears of recessions returning to the market in short time, these fears have also forced FED to raise their interest rates and these in-turn might also force Indian counterparts to increase the interest rates. If the inflation and interest rates continue to haunt the market, there are high chances of increase in price for the components across the product lifecycle. So, it is always safe bet for Apple to increase their price now and have cushion in their maximum retail price while the actual product price increases.
  • Prediction on Rupee performance against dollar: In recent years, there have been considerable traction in Rupees performance against the dollar and the experts are predicting that the rupee might fall further against dollar due to global economic conditions such as war, inflation, and recession fears. With such prediction of rupee’s fall against the dollar, it is always safe bet for Apple to increase their product prices and have safe bet on their margins and helps in increasing their profits.

While the above reasons might be few reasons for increase in prices, the price increase have also ensured that there might not be any further price change for the next months or years and might also depends on some external economic factors.

iCloud and OneDrive folders & files integration

iCloud and OneDrive folders
With evolution of cloud storage solutions across devices, it has now become easier to store your important and regular files over cloud. However, the integration of OneDrive in MacBook or MAC operating system is much lower compared to the native windows operating system. I use MAC as my primary device and have OneDrive subscription for my files back-up. However, there are few restrictions while integrating OneDrive into my MAC system and wanted to detail the following features to be included in the upcoming updates. 
  • Folder backups integration between OneDrive & iCloud: In addition to OneDrive as my primary cloud storage option, I also use iCloud basic tier subscription plan as my secondary back-up storage option and store my important files in iCloud. However, the folders stored in iCloud cannot be directly synchronized with OneDrive and the specific OneDrive folders cannot be synchronized directly into iCloud.
  • iPhone backup to OneDrive Folder: In MAC operating system there is no option to enable all backups to be directly stored in OneDrive and there are few alternative options to enable back-ups to OneDrive. However, all those options are not reliable and there are no system preferences to change the backup location to Cloud by default. 
Apple should allow its users to enable them to back-up their critical and preferred files to other trusted cloud storage service providers like OneDrive. Read more such articles from “G R Team Sites”

Introduction of Airplay feature in set-top boxes and TV's


Introduction of Airplay feature

Recent times, the OTT platforms and online sports streaming applications available in TV's have changed the way we watch entertainment. However, most applications and TVs now have in-built Chromecast support enabling Android phones to have slight edge over iPhones, as iPhone supports only Airplay feature. With technology advancements and increase in usage of iPhone users across the country, I feel puzzled at unavailability of Airplay as standard feature in set-top boxes and in-built in most TV's. Apart from Samsung, most major leading TV brands have boycotted airplay feature in their ecosystem and Apple should have enabled those brands to include Airplay feature in addition to Chromecast support. With lack of Airplay feature in most TV's and set-top boxes, Apple is losing its user base for the following reasons
  • Moving towards Android: Most mobile phone users will not be ready to switch their TVs in short-term and with those TV's having in-built Chromecast support, users will prefer mobile phones supporting Chromecast and gives Android phones an edge over iPhones. 
  • Users unaware of Airplay: Chromecast has been widely popular among all mobile phone users including iPhone users, that most users were still unaware of the Airplay feature available in iOS and are still hesitant to use these features in their phones. 
  • Application support for Airplay: Most Entertainment applications are now built-in with Chromecast support and even in iOS, the streaming and OTT apps support Chromecast support by default. Even if Airplay support is enabled within these applications for FREE by Apple, it would take another year or so, for the feature to be completely utilized by those developers. Only post successful utilization of Airplay in the entertainment apps, the users will find differentiating features and quality between Chromecast and Airplay.

My views on iCloud+ and Apple TV subscription in Apple One Bundle

With introduction of Dolby Atmos and Lossless sound quality in Apple Music catalogue, I am more inclined for subscription to Apple Music and with Apple One pricing being too close, the oscillation about the subscription was high. So, in this article I wanted to detail out the features that were included in Apple One and how will be beneficial for me. The following description on Apple One features was based on my usage statistics and preferences. 
  • iCloud Storage plan: With Apple One, the users get 50GB of cloud storage and exclusive iCloud+ features of private relay and unlimited CCTV cloud storage. However, based on my preference, I have OneDrive subscription plan and it has been my primary online cloud platform for sharing my Photos. Also, since I use Mac Catalina version of Operating System, the private relay feature will not work on the older versions and the CCTV cloud storage will be of no use due to limitations of my network provider. 
  • Apple TV subscription: Other benefits that was included as part of Apple One subscription plan was the Apple TV OTT platform and exclusive access to movies or series. However, there were only few stand-alone series like SEE and few movies like Greyhound that were exaggerated higher than the content and included only very few regional contents in India. So, Apple TV subscription will not make much difference for me, other than experiencing Spatial audio feature in the movies or series content. 
To know more about the other benefits that were included in Apple One subscription like Arcade games and apple music, please feel free to check out the articles published in G R Team sites.

Disadvantages in OneDrive Cloud storage or plan 

I have been detailing for a long time in my articles of my desire to move towards reliable and most affordable online cloud storage choice. After well thought and dragging decision for a long time, I have decided to opt for Microsoft's OneDrive as my preferred online cloud storage platform for its affordability and exclusive access to office applications. However, post migration to OneDrive, there is specific disadvantage of the platform when installed on MAC and wanted to detail the same to my readers. 
  • Lack of choice to select specific folders in MAC: I use Apple's MacBook pro as my preferred laptop for both business and personal use and have no intentions of moving back to Windows operating system in near future. Post installation of OneDrive to my MAC, the most annoying part was, it had defined folders in it and had no preferences/options available to either select or discard specified folder inside my MAC. I had to copy and paste each file(s) into OneDrive's folder for it to sync across devices and when there is change in files architecture or update in the document, the changed files or updated document to be manually moved to the OneDrive‘s online folder. Also, OneDrive does not allow users to backup system files or back up critical system files to OneDrive folder. 
The above detailed problems should be addressed by OneDrive at the earliest, so when users like me, who are first time paid subscribers and users from Mac operating system feel comfortable. For more such articles, please feel free to check out the G R Team Sites.

Looking for alternative option for swollen MacBook pro battery 

My MacBook Pro battery looked swollen, and I tried to resolve it by opening the back panel and checked out connections and removed some screws underneath the swollen section to further save the lifespan. However, after finding out from research that it is not advisable to continue the usage and the battery swollen was increasing by each day with normal usage. I had two options left, one is to either replace the battery or to replace the laptop with complete new one. With budgetary constraints, I had no option available other than to replace the batteries in my old MacBook Pro and ensure that the battery is compatible. Since I have been using 2012 MacBook Pro, the OEM battery option was ruled out, as Apple has stopped the manufacturing of older version of batteries and finding reliable battery available in online shopping network is one of the most complicated process.

Possibility to get a new phone and using Android Phone

With my iPhone 6 starting to be slowing down a lot and my daughter threw the phone to shatter its screen. After a few days of working, my iPhone 6 finally gave up and did not turn on after being in charge of the whole night. I got two options, one option is to get iPhone 11 at a premium price, or the other option is, use my wife’s phone for a few more months and wait till the next generation phone is launched by Apple. I chose the second option of using my wife’s phone for a few more months and receive the latest version of the iPhone, provided the price is the same as the earlier version or marginally higher. Before, I detail my decision on getting a new iPhone, the usage of android after a long time was taking a toll on me, and I was frustrated about using an android phone.

Completely roasted by the onsite team due to my manager

I was working with my manager to complete the work assigned by the irritating onsite team and out of nowhere, my manager started giving new suggestions to work on. With no options left, I started to work on the suggestions provided by my manager, and trusting my manager would join the call and defend me from any questions from the onsite team. However, a few mins before the call, my manager called and informed me that he would not be able to join the call due to some personal work. I was completely furious about my manager's decision to not join the call with some lame excuses, and I was left all alone in the call to defend all the tasks suggested by my manager. A few minutes into the call, the onsite team got angered about the slides and furious with me that there was nothing relevant in the slides, which they requested, and wanted me to completely focus only on the tasks they shared and not to work on other slides. This clear direction from the onsite team was helpful so that I do not need to work on unnecessary suggestions from my manager and to know more such updates, please feel free to check out the blog posts in "G R Team Sites"

Job insecurity due to coronavirus

I was on a long vacation and with Coronavirus unleashing its beast mode across the country, the government had announced a complete lockdown of all activities. Since I had applied for my vacation long back, I did not want it to be interrupted and I continued to be on my vacation. Within few hours of the country being in lockdown, we all received urgent mail from our company stating that we should continue to connect from home until further notice and the lockdown will not impact our jobs or salaries. I was completely relieved after reading this mail and the mail meant the most because the mail assured that our jobs are safe and there would not be any change in salary structure. Initial days were really scary and with no communication in emails from my team, I was getting nervous, and, in the meantime, I called my colleague to check in about things happening in the team and any updates from my manager due to COVID-19 situation gripping across places. To know more on what details that my colleague shared to me due to Corona pandemic, please feel free to check out the blog posts in “G R Team Sites”

No updates from on-site team even after multiple reminders

After waiting for the whole day to get an update from the on-site team, I had no other option left but to drop a note to the on-site team stating that I can support only for next few days and post that I have planned vacation coming up and the delivery team has to take ownership. In addition, I have also mentioned that with no updates for each version shared, from the on-site team, it is getting difficult for the offshore team to work on the rough drafts and make iterative changes. With these strong words, I was also getting nervous about its impact, as it would result in two different outcomes. The positive outcome would be that the on-site team would take ownership and offshore team can support where and when requested, the negative outcome would be, the on-site lead will request me to schedule daily calls to review the document and would provide unnecessary iterative changes. After sending the mail to the on-site team, I was checking the mail anxiously for any further updates or any acknowledgment from the team confirming whether we are on the right track or further modifications required to match client requirements. The next day with so much anxiety, I was opening my laptop to check mails for any further updates or acknowledgment; to my astonishment, I do not have any mails from the on-site team even after sending so many emails and reminders with clear instructions of my upcoming vacation plans.

Struggling with new service request and people

After a long struggle to support my colleagues for completion of the service request, finally I got the go-ahead signal from the manager to work on the new request and I got very limited time to convert the document to the right shape. As I detailed in other posts, whenever I finish my old service request’s document, I try to sneak in few minutes or hours to put some effort into the new service request and it really helped me a lot to save some effort and avoid staying late in the office for completion. But, the idiots with whom I worked had other ideas, whenever I finish and send a document for review there will be no comments and the next day, they would join calls and start providing new suggestions. The delivery person with whom I worked was so irritating that he was expecting me to work on each and every part of the document. At one point I was just waiting for the competition of service request and one more most frustrating part in this service request was that the team which was supposed to be helping me was actually questioning my work and was trying to add-on as much as work possible. Get more details about the service request in the blog posts from “G R Team Sites”

Waste of work in the weekend

After working on the deck in the weekend and putting in my thoughts about the client requirements, I have shared the updated deck to the team for their inputs and review. I was not hoping to get appreciation or recognition for my work from the team, at lease they could have just dropped note to me or called me personally to share their inputs or suggestions. However, the delivery person idiot has called my manager and has stated that lot of work to be done and whatever work I have done in the weekend would be irrelevant and doesn’t match the client requirements. Now my manager called me and was asking questions why I haven’t I included some random shit that he wants it in the deck, as if he knows expectation from on-site and he himself is stupid and doesn’t interpret information shared by on-site.

Ignoring work on my vacation for irritating opportunity

The on-site delivery lead was not in a position to hear what my manager was conveying and was commanding the entire team to share the updated final version of the deck by the end of that day. I was completely taken aback by this comment from on-site delivery lead, as we have no information available either in offshore or from account perspective and to add fuel over my frustration, I was on vacation on the day. I was completely taken aback and was completely clueless about my next action, while heated conversation was going on in the call I was in complete mute and didn’t even utter a word about the progress. After the call I was waiting for my manager to call me and would request me to work on vacation to complete the deck. However, the most unexpected turn of events happened and to know more, continue reading at “G R Team Sites”

Discussion with furious delivery lead and argument

The delivery lead was asking me about each and every state and was expecting me to update it based on my knowledge, however it should be from the offshore delivery POC from his expertise and based on his assessment done earlier. At one point, the discussion moved towards offshore delivery POC and he was blasting him as well for not having the estimates in place for today’s call. The offshore delivery POC was trying to convince the offshore delivery lead about the short turnaround time and the available information shared by the onsite team. But the offshore delivery lead was in no mood to hear out any of the excuses and wanted the updates to be done before the call. The time duration was only 30 minutes between the call and this comment, we immediately got off the call and started working on the comments shared by him. We tried to address the comments as much as possible and was hoping that the on-site team would update the latter part in the deck. Know more about what happened in the call from the G R Team sites.

No recognition or acknowledgement of support from irritating delivery POC

I have been working with this irritating delivery POC for almost 2 weeks and every time I work hard to exceed my own expectations to get some acknowledgement for the work. Lastly, at one point of time, I wanted to escape from this opportunity as early as possible and have planned vacation for one-week post this work. I was closing off most of my work and was sharing as many slides as possible, so I would not be disturbed during my vacation. Finally, the opportunity considered as closed and I was off for my vacation. After so many hardships and the deck finally presented to the client, I was not even acknowledged by this irritating delivery person for the effort, which I have put in for finalizing the deck. In the above posts and in earlier posts where I have detailed about this opportunity, I have called the delivery person as irritating delivery POC wherever possible because he is such kind of a person to work with.

Tight deadline opportunity with lot of work

Once the call got over from the opportunity, I knew there are lot of work that has to be completed within next few hours and without wasting any time, I called the delivery person and conveyed that I would start creating the structure and we can customize it based on the client requirements. So, the day was going on with the tight schedule and I had to complete lot of work within short span of time and due to proficiency in the team and in deck, I was able to complete work faster than anticipated and was able bring the deck in much better version than the earlier and shared it with the entire account team for review. The call was scheduled very late in the night and the meeting invite was shared by that delivery person and when the entire account team was on the call, I get call from that delivery person stating that she would not be able to join the call and I should drive the call. I was shell shocked to hear that response and I was able to manage only first few mins in the call and later I directed it another delivery person to drive it.

Monday morning blues with couple of opportunities

So, after taking office call on my way back to home on a Friday weekend, I had to return back to office on Monday as I had two opportunities on my plate and had to work with nagging delivery expert. I was riding back to office from my native and was worried about the couple of opportunities I had to work and was hoping to close all opportunities soon. I logged in to my office laptop and was in for a surprise that due to lack expertise in client defined application landscape and I was back to square one with only one opportunity. And one such opportunity didn’t have much work for me and I requested the delivery expert to shared details with the accounts team directly. Now all the transactions were happening in the mail communication with me in cc, so all the work that has been done on the opportunity will be accounted as my work and can be tracked in my work tracker. However it didn’t last longer, as in the very next day I was assigned with one more opportunity. Continue reading at “G R Team Sites”

One more opportunity with new Team

After fighting hard with new delivery expert on new opportunity I was expecting at-least an acknowledgment from that delivery expert, as I have done all the work in the RFP and she didn’t even bother to assist me on framing the solution. So after the bitter experience with the new delivery expert I moved on and I have been assigned new opportunity to work on by my manager. The huge twist in this opportunity is that in initial mail the accounts team clearly detailed that they would require support even on weekends and they are on tight timelines to submit the opportunity to the client. I was taken a back a little, as I was scared about the expectation from this new account and level of support that would be required from my end. At first day I called the delivery expert and he seemed knowledgeable and supportive, as of now the initial support expectation seems to be normal and they would require additional support in coming days. I was anxious about this new opportunity and to continue reading, please visit“G R Team sites” listed in right section of this site.

Difficult task started during rains

Now with no electricity, I had found simple trick for staying connected to internet and can browse as usual. I disconnected LAN cable from the modem and connected directly to my MacBook Pro and have been browsing through social networks and been watching YouTube videos. To sweeten it further and to show my billable hours for my office, I turned my MacBook Pro into hotspot and was connecting my mobile and office laptop with it. Around lunch I felt little bit pain of not having electricity, but still enjoying it myself with YouTube videos and social media updates. Time was running and still there was no sign of rain slowing up, so ultimately, I felt that the electricity is not going to be there for few more hours. Now at around 4 PM, I planned to move away from my office laptop and thought would watch some movies in my MacBook Pro. I pinged my team lead that there was no electricity for a long time and I would not be available anytime from now, to show it off as real I closed out my office laptop while having around 30% of battery left. Only later I felt how precious that 30% of battery in my office laptop helped me. Continue reading at “G R Team Sites”

16. Calculating Salary revision

After downloading my salary revision letter, I immediately wanted to check my percentage hike and other relevant details. So, I opened the MAC shortcut and started to do some basic mathematical calculation to arrive at rough percentage hike I got for this year. I started with very low number as I don’t want to get disappointed a lot and it’s not the lowest number, I am relieved now. I went ahead with next number and continued till I got my exact numbers. Finally, I arrived at a medium percentage hike number and felt this would be my hike for this year and continued to my office. In office, everyone got their hike letters and we didn’t even spoke about it for first few hours. Later on, one of my colleagues initiated the discussion about the salary revision and was checking with me about some rough percentage hike. I gave him the number least to the median number and checked with him how much hike he had got. I was shocked to hear that his numbers were pretty much near my hike percentage and consoled myself that, he would have got better ratings than me. And again, one more colleague was mentioning that, he had better hike than any of the last 5 years and was quoting unimaginable number as his hike percentage. Continue reading at “G R Team Sites”

Continuing work with delivery expert

So, the kick-off calls for the complex opportunity started and as initial step we needed to share the questionnaire. To start off, I called this delivery expert to check his availability and convenient time to discuss to share the questions with the team. He conveyed he is little bit tied up and requested me to check with the old delivery expert, with whom I have good rapport. The old delivery expert conveyed to me that he is now moved to new project and would be difficult for him to spend ample time for this engagement and his support for this opportunity would be too sparse. I conveyed the same to this new delivery expert without knowing how complicated it would turn up for me. It started all from this call and he said he would review and provide required information. Since it was very early in the opportunity, there was not much work and I had to take some personal time off and was not available for a week. When I returned back I could see lot of panic buttons being pressed and I had to take ownership for this opportunity. In mean time other people with whom I was about to work was already pissed off by this delivery expert, as he was too rude to them and was raising unnecessary queries.

On the way to office

In office mail, I was shell shocked to know about important meeting that was scheduled that day and “Thank God” the meeting was cancelled. Had this meeting not cancelled, I would have been screwed up by my manager and all top leaders in the team? Since the meeting was all about discussion on the key opportunities and upcoming target for the whole year in the team. I was relieved to know that the meeting was cancelled and back again to my opportunity call, where they were discussing about the same random stuff not related to my work. Finally the call got over, now I had to start to my office and was rushing up, as again I was late — not that late. I reached my office and was speaking to my wife on the way, the distance to my office was very near and hardly takes few minutes. In meanwhile I had got one missed call from one of my delivery POC and I had to skip the call, since family comes to me than the work :P.  Continue at "G R Team Sites"
