.ashx problems? Here are tips!
I have been having trouble opening .ashx files downloaded in Safari or Firefox. The titles said they were PDF or Word files, but the link had a .ashx extension. They wouldn't open in Preview, Pages or anything else in my Dock. A Google search on ".ashx mac" sent me on wild goose chases. I notified the site's webmaster. Here's the response:
"Thanks for your feedback regarding the use of .ashx files on [our] website.
"The reason we use these files is that [our] website is building for the future. Our goal is to make sure we have the ability to be a mobile phone ready site.... This requires that the new format for documents be .ashx because .ashx files search each device for the appropriate program to open the file with. .ashx files can be opened by any number of programs depending on the one the device has available, while files such as .pdf can only be opened with Adobe reader.
"When you open the document, you will be able to save it as a PDF without compromising the integrity of the file. We upload our documents to the site as PDFs – it’s simply the way in which the documents “talk” to your computer (i.e. .ashx) that’s the difference.
"If you’re having problems opening the .ashx files, this is something we are aware of. At this time, MAC users running Firefox seem to be the only customers experiencing this problem. Using Safari instead of Firefox should resolve the problem. The issue is actually not with our website but with Firefox. We've logged the issue with them directly."
There are a couple of other solutions:
* .ashx files open in Adobe Reader
* change the extension from .ashx to .pdf, and the file will open in Preview or Reader.
Funny, that's an MS asp.net file, and I understand it's a dangerous executable!
Do you have a link to a site with one that I can see what is going on with it?
One other option might be an online file conversion...

Have you tried right click or control+click on them and trying to choose an APP to open them?

This is to sum up the problem. Here are facts :
This is to sum up the problem. Here are facts :
1. Java process size grows to ~ 3G and eventually exhaust native memory. Only
data segment of the process grows in size.
2. Java heap size remains stable, way under the max size. Perm generation
size is stable, way under the max size.
Here is a table showing evolution of Java process Virtual Memory

Plase note that Exe, Stack and Libs are the same at the beginning and the endof the period. Data segment increased for about 0.4G. The memory leak takes place in the native code.

Exception in thread "CompilerThread1" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: requested 612052 bytes for Chunk::new. Out of swap space?100M doesn't seem too extreme ... I ran a test program that created 100 sleeping threads, and ps -l reported the process size as 77M. I don't know Linux well enough to know the threading model (I suspect it's LWP-per-thread, which means that ps -m will give correct output).
However, given what you've shown (heap doesn't grow, process map does, failure occurs in code that starts a new thread), it really seems that your problem has something to do with too many threads.
My first thought, since I've seen it before is that there may be fragmentation of the memory map, such that there's no available segment when the JVM tries to allocate the stack for a new thread. When I saw this problem, the JVM (1.3 Solaris) was using a pretty naive approach to mapping those blocks, such that a few long-lived threads would cause it to run out of space. This information is available in the /proc/maps directory (man proc for more info).
There could also be some limit to the number of threads you can create. I know that Solaris returns ENOMEM when it's unable to create a thread; not sure what Linux returns.
Finally, I'm going to suggest again that you put logging messages in the thread factory that you're giving to the pool. Since you control that code, it's an excellent way to watch what's really happening at the time you run out of memory. -

Here are interesting and baffling problems
Hi All:
Could any one, please, help us with the following problems we are facing while running an applet:
We are using JDK 1.1.8.
Our goal is to keep the display up and running even if the user navigates to different pages
The applet loads up as a button and when clicked a pop-up frame window is displayed with the contents.
We took care of the applet data to persist between page switches.
* In IE when one switches to different page it kills the applet and we can't access the applet context to call "showDocument()". We tried all different ways to store it and access it later without any success. Could any one please throw some light on it.
* In NS when one tries to minimize the frame window and tries to maximize it shows up as maximized with only the enclosing frame. But the embedded panels(contents) will retain the size they had before mimimizing. I printed the size of the frame window in "windowDeiconified()" and to my surprise it is still the size before miminizing. Could any one help us to solve this browser specific problem. From "windowDeiconified()" ,we tried to set a different size, called repaint()/update() but without any success.
Please help us to solve these TWO problems
We're running short of time.
Thanks
-ShivaYou might want to try Java Web Start, which allows you to run a Java application from a browser. It sounds like you want an application instead of an applet.

have 2 imac computers and here are my questions: first, how to I transfer the information from my contact directory from my old imac into my new imac? Once the information is transfered how can I print it? Second: I have a large music collection in my old Imac computer how do I transfer this information to my new computer? Also how can I share this information with other computers at home?

A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
The Knowledgebase article Intel-based Mac: Some migrated applications may need to be updated refers to methods of dealing with migrating from PowerPC chips to Intel with the Migration Assistant safely. The authors of this tip have not had a chance to verify this works in all instances, or that it avoids the 10.6.1 and earlier Guest Account bug that caused account information to get deleted upon use of the Migration/Setup Assistant. However, a well backed up source that includes at least two backups of all the data that are not connected to your machine will help you avoid potential issues, should they arise. In event it does not work, follow the steps below.
If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
Screensavers written for the PowerPC System Preference add-ons
All Unsanity Haxies Browser and other plug-ins
Contextual Menu Items
Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5 Kernel extensions
Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior, TechTool Pro , SuperDuper , and Drive Genius work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries. Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.

Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs. The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode. It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions:
1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
2. Backup your data. This is vitally important in case you make a mistake or there's some other problem.
3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
4. Startup your old Mac in Transferring files between two computers using FireWire.
5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)
1. Set up a local home network: Creating a small Ethernet Network.
2. If you have a MacBook Air or Late 2008 MacBook see the following:
MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) and MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008)- What to do if migration is unsuccessful;
MacBook Air- Migration Tips and Tricks;
MacBook Air- Remote Disc, Migration, or Remote Install Mac OS X and wireless 802.11n networks.
Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
In your /Home/Library/ folder:
/Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
/Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
If you want cookies:
/Home/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist /Home/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist
For Entourage users:
Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft.
Credit goes to Macjack for this information.
If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the Discussions where specific applications store their data.
5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.

***I'm honestly not super familiar with most kernal extensions but I do see you have MacKeeper running which can slow the computer down
****** This next section talks about Launch agents and Launch Daemons.
****Something to keep in mind is that when you first get the computer that all of these folders are empty and the files in them are all third party.
****If you want to see if the system runs better without them Shut the computer down and turn it on while holding the shift key
****This will put the computer into safemode which turns off third party files and extensions and does not let any launch agent/daemons files run.

0 B Page-outsThings You Can Do To Resolve Slow Downs
If your computer seems to be running slower here are some things you can do:
Start with visits to: OS X Maintenance - MacAttorney;
The X Lab: The X-FAQs;
The Safe Mac » Mac Performance Guide;
The Safe Mac » The myth of the dirty Mac;
Mac maintenance Quick Assist.
Boot into Safe Mode then repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions Pre-Lion
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
Repair the Hard Drive - Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilites Menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD disk icon and click on the arrow button below.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
Restart your computer normally and see if this has helped any. Next do some maintenance:
For situations Disk Utility cannot handle the best third-party utility is Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible.
Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will startup Macs running Snow Leopard or earlier. It cannot start Macs that came with Lion or later pre-installed, however, DW will work on those models.
Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger. These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later and should not be installed.
OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive.
Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
See these Apple articles:
Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
About file quarantine in OS X
If you require anti-virus protection I recommend using VirusBarrier Express 1.1.6 or Dr.Web Light both from the App Store. They're both free, and since they're from the App Store, they won't destabilize the system. (Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.)
Troubleshooting Applications
I recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaner, or Cocktail that you can use for removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc. Corrupted cache, log, or temporary files can cause application or OS X crashes as well as kernel panics.
If you have Snow Leopard or Leopard, then for similar repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later.
Basic Backup
For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
drive being backed up.
Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate.
Additional Hints
Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
Add more RAM. If your computer has less than 2 GBs of RAM and you are using OS X Leopard or later, then you can do with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion work much better with 4 GBs of RAM than their system minimums. The more concurrent applications you tend to use the more RAM you should have.
Always maintain at least 15 GBs or 10% of your hard drive's capacity as free space, whichever is greater. OS X is frequently accessing your hard drive, so providing adequate free space will keep things from slowing down.
Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:
Pre-Mavericks
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Mavericks and later
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the View menu. Click on the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
Often this problem occurs because of a corrupted cache or preferences file or an attempt to write to a corrupted log file. -

You installed a variant of the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
This malware has many variants. Anyone else finding this comment should not expect it to be applicable.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.laser.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.laser.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.laser.helper.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/laser
/System/Library/Frameworks/v.framework
The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
B
"ZipCloud" is some sort of cloud-storage service with a doubtful reputation. The OS X client is sometimes distributed along with malware. Although ZipCloud may not be malicious itself, it should be deemed suspect by virtue of the company it keeps.
To remove ZipCloud, start by backing up all data (not with ZipCloud itself, of course.)
Quit the application, if it's running, and drag it from the Applications folder to the Trash.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.jdibackup.ZipCloud.autostart.plist
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Trash.
In the same folder, there may also be a file named
com.jdibackup.ZipCloud.notify.plist
Move that to the Trash as well.
Log out or restart the computer and empty the Trash.
C
The following Safari extensions are malicious and should be removed in the Extensions pane of the Safari preferences window:
Searchme
Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use those. Never install any extension with the words "Spigot," "Conduit," "Genieo," or "Trovi" in the description.
D
Some of your user files (not system files) have incorrect permissions or are locked. This procedure will unlock those files and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
resetp
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
▹ Restart
from the menu bar. -
Here are scripts for getting OAS302 working on RedHat 6.0
People have said this doesn't work. It works. It's just the
owsctl that doesn't work. I'm not saying that oas302 on RedHat 6
is the best solution anyone could come up with, but it does work,
and if you want to do it, here are some scripts that you can feel
free to modify and use as you wish. Various variables should be
updated with however you system is configured. Remember to start
the wrb (i.e. the second script) before you start any listeners.
Linux has a tendency to crash if you don't kill -KILL all the wrb
processes at the same time (i.e. the kernel gets an uncaught
exception and dies).

<disclaimer>
I do not guarantee these will work. I do not guarantee that
they will not destroy something important. I assume no liability
for what these scripts may or may not do. Use them at your own
risk. There is no expressed or implied waranty.

nullHi Erick,
Your scripts for running the OAS302 on 6.0 linux had been very
helpful.
In fact, I dont know what would I have done without them.
Now I am able to run the listeners and even able to create the
packages and users in the database via the OAS 3.0.2 but the
problem starts when accessing a procedure in the database using
the pl/sql agent. By the way i am using Oracle 8.0.5.1 RDBMS and
its home is different than the webserver home.
The browser just does nothing and even does not log any error
message ,I have to stop it after a while but all my other
catridges are working.
any insight will be appreciated.
thanks,
Vikram ( Ironically enough I work for Oracle).

FINALLY - Boot Camp 2.1 Installed Successfully. Here are some stats....
Well, I believe I have finally successfully installed Boot Camp 2.1 for Windows Vista 32-bit on a MacBook Pro. After trying last Friday to install it, failing miserably, and a weekend spent reinstalling operating systems, etc. I feel a bit better. Although, these problems shouldn't have to happen to begin with, in my opinion.
I have learned to backup even more religiously than I have before -- you don't know how many restore points, complete PC backups, etc. I have done over the past few days.
Anyway, here are some stats that I would like to compare with other folks to make sure that I have everything that this update was supposed to offer. I wish Apple would provide the details about the update, but they don't. Here are my statistics, many probably Windows Vista 32-bit specific.
_Miscellaneous Notes_
I have a MacBook Pro 2.2 GHz, 15", 4 GB RAM -- I bought it in June 2007 (I forget what the chipset is - Santa Rosa? - but it was a new model then)
I have Vista Ultimate 32-bit
I had Vista SP1 installed before installing the BC 2.1 update
I did not have any other language packs installed
If I right click on the Boot Camp icon in the taskbar and say "About", the version I see is Version 2.1 (Build 210A12)
Drivers
Apple Built-In Bluetooth: 4/6/2008, version 2.1.0.1
NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT: 1/24/2008, version 7.15.11.6763
Apple Keyboard: 3/10/2008, version 2.1.0.0 (I had two of these listed)
Apple Trackpad: 8/28/2007, version 2.0.1.4
Apple IR Receiver: 11/1/2007, version 2.0.1.1
Built-in iSight: 6/21/2006, version 6.0.6001.18000
Apple Trackpad Enabler: 8/28/2007, version 2.0.1.4
Atheros AR5008X Wireless Network Adapter: 4/15/2007, version 7.2.0.204 (there may be an update to this that I haven't installed yet)
Marvell Yukon 88E8058 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller: 3/23/2007, version 10.12.7.3 (there may be an update to this that I haven't installed yet)
Realtek High Definition Audio: 11/14/2007, version: 6.0.1.5512 (Note: This was disabled after the install of BC 2.1. I had to reenable it in the device manager. I think maybe my virus scanning program might have done something, but I am not sure)
Note: I had 3 monitors listed in my Device manager, but I only have two -- the laptop monitor and an external monitor connected to it. That is weird, I think.
_Windows Experience Index_
Processor: 5.1
Memory (RAM): 4.8
Graphics: 5.9 (This might have went up with the new driver, I don't remember)
Gaming Graphics: 5.4
Primary Hard Disk: 4.6
Base Score: 4.6 (because of hard drive)
_Final Words_
This wasn't a smooth update at all by any means.
I hope this helps a little. Please let me know if you have the same sort of statistics.
Thanks.

Message was edited by: jmFightSpamIn my quest to figure out why my keyboard backlighting is not working, I decided to extract the BC 2.1 installer using 7-zip to see all of the individual drivers separately. Now, I don't know which driver is for the keyboard backlight, but I did try to install the TrackPad separately, and guess what, the original installation did not update the trackpad driver for some reason.
So now the the stats for the Apple Trackpad are:

Photoshop CS6 Problems- Shortcuts are Stuck! Lasso Does Not Work!
Hi there! I'm a Mac user with a Cintiq 12WX tablet, and I just upgraded to Photoshop CS6. I use it primarily for art, but I've come across some problems that have really interrupted my workflow. A lot of the time, certain functions seem to not work or get stuck. Here are my problems specifically:
1. My Undo shortcut is set to Command+Z. Some of the time it works fine, but most of the time I keep hitting the command and nothing happens! So if I want to delete a brush stroke, I usually have to tap multiple with my stylus and make more strokes in order to get Undo to work. Frustrating!
2. The lasso tool works sometimes, but a lot of the time it doesn't select anything. So I have to keep repeating the stroke until it does select.
3. Sometimes, the keyboard shortcuts just don't work! And even if a tool is selected, I can't do anything with it!
These problems are all completely random, I have no idea what triggers them. I've read of other people having similar problems, but I have yet to find a solution. Nothing like this happened in CS5. Does anybody know how to help me? I make me living with art and these problems have really slowed me down. Thank you!What OS Version are you using?
It sounds like you are on MaCOS, did you install the WhiteWindowWorkaround plugin to avoid the known MacOS bugs? -
Hi Guys,
I have a problem with Importing Pictures onto my Mac mini with Lion installed by using a Card Reader,
What is the problem here so I can get Pictures onto my Computer. ,Hi Noob Søren
There are a few things that are confusing in your question.
As far as I know, you dont have to install Time Machine on this OS as it is already installed for you. You only need to connect a hard drive to your computer via firewire or usb, click on the Time Machine icon, Open Time Machine Preference in the drop down menu and select a disk: your connected hard drive.
You can of course reformat this connected device, partition it into a few volumes to organise data if you so wish.
I find it strange that your mac's hard drive is divided into two volumes... perhaps this was created through bootcamp?
You can access the configuration of your hd through Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities.
Clicking on one of the icons on the right hand panel will bring the details of the contents of your hardDrive and volumes. From there you can decide to erase a partition, reformat etc....
If your hd contains more than one volume, and one of them is empty, you could decide to remove it. Back up all your important data before doing so.
Hope this helps

Hi, I bought a Macbook in 2007/2008 and am wondering if it is possible to update my system so I can get the new version of iTunes?
Here are my current system details: Mac OsX Version 10.5.8
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: MacBook
Model Identifier: MacBook4,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 3 MB
Memory: 2 GB
Bus Speed: 800 MHz
Boot ROM Version: MB41.00C1.B00
SMC Version (system): 1.31f1The model 4,1 can run a maximum of 10.7 Lion. The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. After you’ve installed that then download the 10.6.8 combo updater to finish it off. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
System Requirements for 10.6:
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
Some features require a compatible internet service provider: fees may apply.
You can upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6 with no problems as long as you have at least 1gb of RAM. Any program that runs under 10.5 should run under10.6. See this list for third party programs compatibility with 10.6: http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/ You might have to upgrade some drivers for printers, etc.... And you will have to install Rosetta if you have any Power PC applications
http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/snow_leopard_installing_rosetta/
Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. Or go to http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion and purchase it there. The price is $19.99.
Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications. -
OK post all your 2.0 problems here!
Here are the list of my problems:-
1) App store is good but crashes all so often.
2) Youtube app cannot connect to net when my safari app is browsing with breeze.
3) Music app does not have recently played to recently added playlists.
4) When syncing with itunes "backup" thing takes like forever.
5) At times whole itouch is very slow takes like 2mins for it to play a song.
Anyone having similar or different problems?Hi Guys
I own Nokia N85 which just a year old. Yesterday I was restoring few selected contents from backup stored in my laptop, it was very slow. The restoration bar which indicates the current status of the restoration was indicates that something is in progress but it was stuck and nothing happened. I kept my device throughout the night and next morning a messages pop up in my laptop saying connection lost (connected through USB cable). However I disconnected but I see no difference. But my mobile stopped responding. When I switch it on it restarted but it switched off itself. I tried couple of time but it didn't work. Today evening when I reconnected by device with my laptop, it is kept on switching on and off. I am not sure why it is happening. May be the link was broken during the restoration process. Can somebody please help or tell me how can I restore my mobile.
Many thanks
Cheers!
