IE 6 - I really can't get rid of the 3-pixel text jog

Hello,
I'm afrait that's a bit more of the same about the 3-pixel text jog. I'm testing a website in IE6, have spent a whole day trying to figure out how to get rid of this jog, tried various solutions found in this forum and on the web, and nothing works. I don't understand why the zoom property works for most people except me!
The website is here: http://www.cerc.co.uk/CERC/v02/
I've put background colors to the main div tags to check the layout, so that's why it looks funny.
I wouldn't be that bothered with a 3-pixel extra gap between elements if it wasn't turning some page layout upside down. For these pages, the content zone (light blue background) jumps down until the side menu bottom edge (yellow background).
Examples of the problem:

http://www.cerc.co.uk/CERC/v02/support/training.html
http://www.cerc.co.uk/CERC/v02/about/contact/enquiries.html
(All other pages will show you how it's meant to be displayed.)
If someone has an idea, I'd really appreciate to hear about it!
Emilie
P.S.: I also attach a screenshot to show what I'm seeing. This is in IE 6 on Windows XP emulated on Mac OS X 10.5 via VMware, so perhaps this problem only occurs with this computer configuration (which would then solve the problem!).

If that may help anyone, I eventually managed to solve this problem! Here is the solution in "my" case. I thought it was only the 3-pixel text jog problem, but I needed two corrections and therefore I suspect I had two problems mixed—making it a total nightmare to debug for a newbie because the widely documented 3-pixel text jog fix didn't work.
Context : in this page structure, the elements in trouble in IE 6 are the divs #SideMenu (the side menu, orangish background colour in the attached screenshot) and #Content (the content area, blueish background colour). #SideMenu is floated left and has a width of 16 em. #Content is not floated and has a left-margin of 16 em (no width, it's supposed to take whatever is left on the page and the page is allowed to extend from 770 pixels to 970 pixels in width).
Problem: for some pages with this HTML structure (and just nothing fancy inside #Content), the entire #Content div drops down until the top of #Content matches the bottom of #SideMenu.
I needed two fixes, which I both coded to be for IE6 only using IE conditional comments.
Fix 1: A new CSS rule for #Content that (re)sets the left margin to 16.5 em. That gives more room to the divs and the entire #Content div isn't dropping down any longer. However, after setting this up, some other pages started to show some problems: part of the content of #Content would drop down (e.g. a table inside #Content).
Fix 2: applying the zoom: 1 property to #Content fixed this second problem.
I hope this makes sense and might help someone else.

How can I get rid of the added / preset text words included in my text messages. It always says something like "Please call back at ###-####."

JenJenTen,
I understand that having a preset text that you did not want can be a bit frustrating when sending out text. To clarify, is the preset message like a signature at the end of your text? Does this only happen in text messages or when your send emails also? Is your SMS delivery confirmation on? Messaging>Settings>SMS delivery confirmation.

Can't get rid of the # when adding text

I'm trying to edit a document in Indesign. I started by doing a Pre-Flight to correct errors and have one left I can't get rid of.
Originally the Text Error was for a font that ID could not find so I changed the font to what was already being used for other text - an included font - Charlamagne Std Regular
When trying to type text into a text box the type jumps to just above the text box where the pound sign (#) sits.
When entering type, even after positioning the curser inside the text box, it jumps the text to right before the pound sign, on top of the text box, and adds a pink box under the text.
I have attached a screen shot to show this. How to I get rid of the pound sign and pink box to be able to simply type some text in the text box (that the pink box is in)? Thanks!

@dkg62 – to make clear what's going on, select the text frame and show us another screenshot.
There are at least four cases where you can get a text like that. All cases imply, that the font you'd like to use is missing. I simulated this by formatting text with a font weight that is not available by a character style.
1. The most likely case: There is baseline shift applied; here in my case 9pt.
All other cases are academical, because the pink highlighting is aligned with the text:
2. Text frame options, baseline set to a fixed value (zero in this case)
3. Text on path and the text frame options (baseline) is just the standard default. You can see a second #-end of story sign inside the text frame.
4. Text on path and the text frame options (baseline) is set to fixed (zero in this case). The second #-sign inside the text frame is shifted above because of the fixed value of the baseline option of the text frame options. And obscured by the pink highlighting.

Can't get rid of the beeping noise!(SOLVED)

Hey guys, so I can't get rid of the beeping noise of my laptop.
I have an Acer Aspire 722. Every time I plug or unplug the power, it beeps. And the really annoying one, everytime I backspace, it beeps.
I've tried going into alsa and muting beep. I put !pcspkr in modules in rc.conf.
I don't know what else to do?
Help will be extremely appreciated. Thanks.
edit: unrelated but something I want to resolve. I get these debugging messages, and found to get rid of them I have to set loglevel= 3 in grub. How do I do that? (SOLVED)
Also, I'm having an issue with x-org. Every time I try to download it, it says it is missing a file. So I figured maybe it is a mirror problem so I went to change my mirror. Pacman keeps trying to use my old mirror even when my mirrorlist does not have that mirror commented out. I also checked pacman.conf and no mirror is being loaded in there with a server=mirror syntax.
Not sure what is happening?

Please read the man page :-)
-y, --refresh
Download a fresh copy of the master package list from the
server(s) defined in pacman.conf(5). This should typically be used
each time you use --sysupgrade or -u. Passing two --refresh or -y
flags will force a refresh of all package lists even if they
appear to be up to date.

Nah, you do need a browser, sorry ;P
You should have some simple text-based (links and elinks) on the CD you used for installation, but they may be a bit intimidating to use if you're new.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

How can I get rid of the path in Type on a Path?

Greetings
Now I really feel stupid. First I couldn't find the magin tabs, now I can't get rid of the path. I have a feeling I might need to start over, but is there a way to lose the path and still have the text?

You should highlight the text that is on the path, copy it using Ctrl+C / Command+C and then
place a new text tool cursor elsewhere on the page and paste the text into that cursor. Then delete
the old occurrence of the text on path.

How can I get rid of the dark area on top one third of my iphone screen which spoils my background image?

How can I get rid of the dark area on top one third of my iphone screen which spoils my background image?
It seems this problem is caused by the software to increase the readibility of upper letters (clock battery etc.) It be nice to leave us the control of choosing background letter color too if we are using brighter images or darker images.
I'm using iphone 4s and it appeared after I updated to new patch. 7.1.1.
Thanks,

Hi,
According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.

How can I get rid of the accumulation of the backups in the Macintosh HD of my new MBA 13.3'' ?

How can I get rid of the accumulation of the backups in the Macintosh HD of my new MBA 13.3'' ?

My best advice is that you stop worrying about the backups that TimeMachine is making on your MBA. First, these local backups are only made when TimeMachine should perform a backup but your computer isn't connected to TimeMachine. Once you reconnect your computer to TimeMachine it makes a backup and the local backups are deleted. Second, TimeMachine stops making local backups when your free drive space dips below 80%. So the local backups aren't going to take over your computer.

I have a new iPad. I am using Comcast as my email provider but when I send a message, it pulls up the facebook email addresses for my contacts instead of the addresses stored in my comcast account. How can I get rid of the Facebook email addresses? The comcast addresses are stored in the comcast (xfinity) app. I do not use the "mail" or "contacts" apps ....I go straight to comcast (xfinity). I wish I could start over!!! thanks.
iPad

I could be wrong, but it sounds like Facebook imported to your contacts. I have the Xfinity app on my new ipad, too, but none of my stored contacts from the online version are showing, only what I manually entered into the iPads contacts are there. When I did add the FB app, I did not grant it permission to push and pull from my ipad (not a fan of FB knowing every detail about me), so that may be where our difference lies. You could try to open the app and change your privacy settings, or delete it and then reinstall without granting permissions to integrate.
I'm sure someone here with a lot more knowledge then me can probably diagnose your issue better, though. Good luck!

Hey,
In your case i would contact Toshiba memory support. You can give them a call or write an e-mail, have a look on Toshiba memory page:

Have you created the password using U3T software? On the same Toshiba page there is a FAQ article how to remove U3T Launchpad software.
