At the end of my rope with recent upgrade

I just bought the recent upgrade it's 2.0.1. Anyways before I bought it and updated my ipod everything worked perfect. My favorite thing to do was sit outside on the ipod surfing the net. Well now that I updated it I can not get online. I can connect to my wifi which works no problem as I am on a computer right now using wifi but I can not access the net, youtube, itunes anything at all. If I am lucky I can load apple.com or gmail.com but that is it. If I click on a link it will not load another page. I have googled like no tomorrow to fix this and nothing has worked. Here is what I have tried.
- Reset by holding down home and power
- Taking off all applications I had downloaded and doing a complete restore putting the ipod back to factory settings and then syncing minus the apps as the apps and the 2.0.1 is the only things new on my ipod.
- I have tried messing with the settings under the connection on the ipod as suggested in some sites I found.
- I have tried changing my secruity settings on the modem, unplugged modem and reset modem even though modem has nothing to do with it since I still get online on my computer.
- I have tried forgetting network and refinding it, I have also tried renewing it.
I am so fed up. I want whatever was on it before 2.0.1 back since I could get on the internet then. I bought the ipod back in december so support will do nothing for me if I called them.
Please Help!! I am ready to throw the thing out the window.

I understand that you are trying to help. I came to realize that it must be a sig or something that automatically attaches at the end as it is no longer in more of the thread it is always at the bottom of the thread. I am so fed up with this stupid thing. I have tried everything it seems and everything mentioned in this thread. I got the IPod beside me to try each new suggestion. I can't go to an apple store as we do not have one here. I am ready to call apple and force them to deal with this in the morning. I got enough on plate I don't need this added stress even as minor as it is in the big picture.

  • Please help find driver, at the end of my rope with this ca

    I purchased a used soundcard from a computer repair shop near here a few months back. The sound card did not come with an installation CD. So i was pretty much left on my own to find drivers for it. Ive got a good many years experience building pcs so i figured this wouldnt be a problem. How WRONG i was lol. After being unable to find drivers for it originally I finally gave up and put the card in a static protection bag i had laying around and havent thought about it much since then just counted it as a loss. Now im back at it trying again to find drivers to get this card to work.
    The following is every bit of information i feel applicable to this sittuation, however if anymore infos needed please let me know and ill try to provide it.
    My operating system= windows XP with SP2
    The following is off the card itself. (which says its a creative sound blaster Li've!)
    Theres an inkstamp on the uppper left hand corner of the non chipset side that reads
    32AMN08B 853
    94v-0 k
    (backwards RJ looking symbol)e9697 3999
    Serial number= m48309402990
    Model number= CT4830
    Steps i've taken so far are i originally went to the creative search function and looked for the drivers on their site it gave me a link to two files which i downloaded.
    This is the link where i downloaded the following files
    http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/download.asp?MainCategory=&nRegionFK=&nCountryFK=& nLanguageFK=&sOSName=Windows+XP&region=&Product_Na me=Li've%2&Product_ID=4857&modelnumber=&driverlang =033&OS=0&drivertype=0&x=26&y=
    And this of course is the two files i got.
    . Li'veDrvPack_Patch.exe
    2. Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe
    File number one has a warning as follows:
    (This is an update patch, it is not a complete driver installation. You must have the previous Li'veDrvPack.exe (SBLW-XPWEB-W3-US), posted July 7,2002. in your system if you wish to use this patch.)
    Ive searched the site i cant find this file (SBLW-XPWEB-W3-US) after searching through the forums a bit i found this thread http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/board/message?board.id=soundblaster&message.id=25677&vie w=by_date_ascending&page=
    Which had lists of ISOs for all the different installation CDs. I downloaded everything i seen on filefront (http://hosted.filefront.com/BadBoyforum) badboy had posted that had LIVE in the name. These include the following ISOs.
    . SB Audigy & Li've!.iso
    2. SB Li've! 5. (SB0228).iso
    3. SB Li've! 5. (SB0229).iso
    4. SB Li've! 24bit.iso
    I mounted each image in daemon tools and attempted to install and recieved the following error
    ERROR= Setup could not detect any sound blaster audio card on your system. Please ensure that your sound blaster hardware is properly installed before running this setup program. Setup will now exit.
    Im kindve at a loss as how to proceed. Ive tryed looking through driverguide.com and a few other generic driver sites without much luck. If anybody at all has any suggestions on this id be very appreciati've. Like i said its a used card so it could be an OEM but it appears to be an ODM but who knows im by no means an expert on all this. I may have missed one of the LIVE isos off that filefront site but i dont think so. The only one i see thats left is the external one and its an internal card so i dont see how that could be right.

    okay well i tryed the patching method on all of the isos i had after extracting them.
    I patched it and it said it was successful. when i ran each successi've setup it still didnt detect any soundblaster hardware.
    I also went to compaq and tryed a driver i found there without any luck. Im thinking at this point it is an OEM
    Although i still dont understand how you got compaq from the model number, im going to continue looking around their site.
    Maybe ill luck out but so far im about to the point im ready to throw this @#$%@%#@$@##@$#@$% thing away lol.
    Im looking on driver guide now again. :Sighs This is so aggrivating Normally i wouldnt have bought a card without the drivers but
    my wifes the one that got it and she didnt know. Oh well......
    You can get the model information from here.
    You can also try by installing kX drivers -> if kX package don't get installed, your card may have some problems.

  • At the end of my rope with phone support.

    I'm not sure what anyone here can do, but I need somplace to share this with. Its extremely frusturating.
    Less than a month ago, I purchased my first iMac. It was a slightly older model- a 20" Aluminum 2.0ghz machine. It was purchased from a re-seller and had obviously been sitting on the shelf for a while. I know that the warranty date starts from the purchase date of the re-seller; there is a form to fill out if it needs to be changed to your actual purchase date. In a situation like mine, where the computer had been in the store for around a year, this was essential if I wanted any kind of phone support.
    I filled out these forms, faxed a copy of the receipt to the number I was supposed to, and assumed everything would be fine. Within 24 hours, Boot Camp managed to screw up the OS X partition of my hard drive. I needed to make several calls to customer support, where I had to argue with all of them due to the purchase date update taking up to 72 hours to go through. After several phone calls, where I had to explain my situation 15 times and wait on hold for 45 minutes while they found out that it takes 72 hours for the change to go through, and after literally 5 hours of driving to my nearest Apple stores until someone was willing to help me with the problem even though I was "out of warranty" (Reminder- I had purchased this computer 2 days prior. New, off the shelf in the store. It absolutely should've been under warranty.) I was finally able to get the computer fixed.
    Today, I figured I'd check on the status of my purchase date switch, so the next time something goes wrong with my computer I don't have to battle with tech support to get them to listen to my problem. I entered the serial number in the warranty info page, and it tells me:
    *Our records indicate that your product is covered under a custom contract. For more information about your coverage, please contact us.*
    *Your product is not eligible for complimentary phone support.*
    When I click "contact us," the only thing that would be able to potentially help me out is the Apple Customer Service phone number. I don't feel like calling and having someone with a medium-thick accent repeat back to me what they understood my issue to be 5 times until they finally get it right. I would love to write it out so someone can just re-read it if they don't wrap their mind around it the first time.
    I don't see why I should have to argue my case. I went to an Apple Authorized Reseller, swiped my credit card, and walked out with a new iMac. No, it's not the newest model, but its still new. That's money that just went in Apple's pocket, because of my purchase. There is absolutely no reason why it should be this big of a struggle just to get the warranty that I deserve. I don't feel like I'm being unreasonable or out of line in any way.
    Does anyone know who I can EMAIL about this, or am I going to have to put up with the non-help I get on the phone? They're going to tell me that they can't help me out, because I'm supposedly not covered for phone support anymore. Ugh. Please help.

    I'm not sure what anyone here can do
    Nothing. These are user to user forums, of which Apple employees do not take part in.
    Does anyone know who I can EMAIL about this,
    Nobody...Apple does not offer email support/correspondence. Call support and ask immediately to speak to customer relations.

  • I'm at the end of my rope with this thing!!

    Just a quick overview,
    I've had my 30G iPod for about 2 weeks now. At first I couldn't get iTunes to read the iPod and had all these other problems. Eventually, after trying all sorts of things, I would have to pull the cord out of the USB port because iTunes said there was no iPod connected, but the iPod read 'do not disconnect'. Grr..I've only done this about three times and I know it can damage it whatever, but I had no choice! Now, after I turn it off I always put it on hold, and when I'd later turn it back on again, usually it would automatically turn back on again, now it doesn't, I press any button like the booklet says to do to turn it on, but the apple icon always appears indicating its reset, it happens quite a lot, and when I turn it off, put it on hold, then take it off hold after its been reset, it turns on automatically like it should! However, I haven't had problems with iTunes lately, its all going smoothly, and so had my iPod, but only lately its been doing this freaky stuff!
    Hopefully you guys can help me! I'm thinking about taking it back to the store.

    Even though you eject the IPOD from ITUnes it is still connected to windows. You have your IPOD set to run in disk mode and it has to be dismounted from the Windows Operating System correctly or you will lock it up eventually. Read this first:
    Do Not Disconnect - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61135
    It may be an option to restore your IPOD to factory settings and reload all your stuff on to a clean IPOD drive. Read this:

  • 6.0.5.20, at the end of my rope

    I installed 6.0.5.20 and it has not allowed my 5G or Nano to connect to iTunes. All I get is the message: "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not istalled correctly. Please reistall iTunes to install the iPod's software."
    I've tried reinstalling it. I've tried removing and reinstalling it, I've tried the McAfee firewall (it has full access to iTunes), I've tried the Quicktime standalone install, I've tried the MSCONFIG setting, I've tried removing iPod updater 2006-28-06, I've tried sending an e-mail to Apple. I can't restore my iPod, because now I get an "iPod service error" when I try to run any updater, new or old. Absolutely nothing has worked.
    Does anyone have any ideas? I'm at the end of my rope with this.

    Ok, I solved my problem. Here's what I did: I went through all the steps in the article linked above and nothing seemed to work. Part of those steps has you remove iPod stuff from your computer. I would follow the steps for "Removing iTunes." From what I could figure out, it was the iPodService.exe that was causing my problem because it would never show up under the "Processes" menu in the Task Manager. I downloaded version 6.0.4 from oldapps.com. Then I reloaded my iPod software from the CD that came in the box, my Nano had iPod update 3-26-06 on it. When I opened iTunes, everything worked fine. My God it took forever to get that done. I've been working on this for a week.

  • Do you have any ideas why Motion 5 would run slow on a computer? I have an Imac with 8Gigs of ram, and plenty of hard drive space, but it still gives me the beach ball when I add a few lights and effects. I'm at the end of my rope.

    You probably don't really need 1080 at 60 for your finished projects but since you're just starting out with Motion, you need to lower your expectations. A long way. 1080 is about 2 million pixels per frame, DV is only about 400,000. That's not just five times as many pixels for the Mac to track; everything in video is exponential.
    Explore the training tutorials available by Mark Spencer. You will get an idea of how his super powerful machine reacts with the software.
    Adding a light roughly doubles the processing time over flat scenes. Two lights increases processing again. Reflections require processing the lights and then calculating the reflections so add another quarter of the time required for flat scenes. Add camera movement, motion blur, and depth of field and you need exponentially more processing time for every frame. The preload of renders into RAM is one of the cooler features of Motion, as comapred to After Effects, but that takes tons of time, to.
    Try working in ye olde DV resolution for a few days. Get to know the software's limitations and what gets imposed by your Macintosh. Step up to 720p/30 and see how things slow down.

  • Account issues - at the end of my tether with BT

    I've been a customer of BT for 16 years (that's loyalty!) but over the last 3 months I'm now at the end of my tether.
    I upgraded my broadband & phone package in October 2013. BT closed my old account and set up a new one.
    First of all the new broadband is rubbish (but that's another post!) but my main issue is with billing.
    I received a link to set up MyBT which didn't work. I kept trying to use my btinternet mail account, it's says this is already registered with an account (that'll be the one that I was told was closed)...
    I can still log in to my old account on MyBT but it says last payment was September (correct) but can't do anything else with it.
    I now keep getting phone calls to pay my bills. The old account was (again) apparently closed so the direct debits have been cancelled. The details on the old account were meant to have transferred over to the new one, but this hasn't happened.
    I have called umpteen times & used live chat, as nice as they are the issue never gets sorted.
    They won't give me my account number over the phone or chat, so I can't set up a direct debit with my bank, in the meantime it looks like I'm a poor payer.
    I am totally demented with this. How hard can it be???
    I just want details of my new account so that I can pay it & check it online. And I want the old one closed!
    Sorry if this seems like a rant but I am totally demented with it.

  • Automatic tab when reaching the end of a field with limited character number

    Hello!
    Is there a way of activating an automatic tab behaviour when the user reaches the end of a field with limited character number?
    I'd like the cursor to jump to the next field in tab order automatically.
    Possible?
    Thank you for any hints!
    Marcos

    Hi,
    What if you tried something like the following example? This works using formCalc on the change event for the field the user is currently typing into:
        var fullCount = 3
        var currentString = xfa.event.newText
        if(Len(currentString) >= fullCount)then
            xfa.host.setFocus("TextField2")
        endif
    Or, if you prefer javaScript:
        var fullCount = 3;
        var currentString = xfa.event.newText;
        if(currentString.length >= fullCount){
            xfa.host.setFocus("TextField2");
    These work very smoothly.
    Hope this helps!

  • I am trying to get a good copy of my home video on DVD using IDVD.  On editing the video all the viewing screens show the video perfectly in HD.  When I burn the video to DVD all the end results are buzzy with squiggly lines.  Any fix?  Thanks?

    Hi
    There are several layers to this Q
    A. There are no HD in DVD - DVD is as standard only SD-Video what ever tools used to produce it !
    iDVD or DVD-Studio Pro or Roxio Toast™ - will only make SD-Video on DVD
    B. DVD can be better or worse
    • Using "Share to iDVD" is no good way - Better is Share to Media Browser and as Large (NOT HD as result will be worse)
    • Using iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - are not tools to chose if highes quality is of importance - iMovie up to HD6 or FinalCut any version is far better as they send over all lines to iDVD and not only every second one.
    • Using Right encoder quality depending on movie and Manu duration is very important
    • Use of high quality brand of DVD - is important - I use Verbatim DVD-R
    • Type of DVD - DVD-R plays on more DVD-Players (even old ones)
    • Burn speed - I set it down to x4 - resulting in less burn errors - plays on more players
    • I secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up Mac OS hard disk as iDVD and Mac OS needs this and it can not be taked from other hard disks - has to be here.
    • What You feed iDVD does matter
    Video codecs
    Audio file formats
    Photo file formats

  • At the end of my patience with BT

    Two weeks ago, a rushed delivery driver rounding the tight corner in the dark outside of my house crashed into my telegraph pole (actually on the roadside). It made a very loud noise, I rushed outside but he had driven away leaving part of the vans trim behind (which I have still got). I find it hard to believe that the instant problems that I have had with my telephone and broadband since then are not connected. Initially I noticed that the telephone line was very noisy, then I noticed that the broadband (usually 6.5-ish MBps) was much reduced - I used the BT Wholesale Speedtest and discovered that it was 3.9 MBps,
    I contacted Technical help, going through the checks they identified that when we unplugged the broadband line the telephone instantly cleaned up, they ordered me a replacement Hub as they felt the original was faulty (they were not interested in the Telegraph pole story). The Hub arrived 2 days later and I fitted it - no change, I called in the problem again and spend a couple of hours going through all of the checks, including getting cut off a couple of times during transfers between Departments which necessitated calling in again, starting from scratch. It was suggested that the reduced IP profile and slow speeds was the result of the new Hub not being stabilised and so I was asked to leave it a few days, if it hadn't levelled out, call it in again.
    It didn't magically mend itself. I spend another couple of hours trying to get to someone who can help but 'the script' is unavavoidable. I was cut off at least twice being transferred to 'Level 2' which meant 'start again from scratch'. Because of the noisy line and the amount of time involved I also tried the Online Live Chat on 3 or 4 occasions but was unable to get anywhere - it is so easy to get 're-queued' when the problem outstrips the agents grade, Everyone was very kind and caring using the exact same apologetic phrases, no-one owned the problem enough to solve it. I asked to be transferred to the department who would handle my cancellation, at last, someone based in the UK!! I vented my total frustration and she was most sympathetic, I explained that the offshore call-centre and the convoluted telephone system was not working for me, she was sure that the engineer who I had been allocated for the next day would sort everything out for me, on the spot. I relented putting my total disatisfaction down to the fact that within the last 10 days I had probably devoted 12 hours to simply reporting, testing, waiting on hold for an advisor, or using the Live Chat - like everyone else - I simply don't have time for that the week before Christmas. I am a Phone, Broadband and Vision customer, Vision is useless with low speed, phones are useless when so noisy, broadband is pointless when contantly dropping out. 
    The engineer visited, he replaced the main socket to a brand-new one as the existing socket (although the newer vision style, one socket above the other) was known to have issues. The phone was quiet, broadband showed 4.5 MBps but that was because the IP Profile was 4.5MBps - he suggeated I call it in and get the Profile reset. As he left I was on the phone, I waited 12 minutes to get through to 'stage 1' and noticed that as time passed the a noise started and grew to the same level as before his visit, I then spent another 3 hours reporting the problem, getting disconnected, starting again, getting cut-off when line testing whilst I was invited to accept a call on my mobile which being in a poor reception area was always going to be a bad option, then getting cut-off again between transfers to 'Level 2' and restarting the whole thing from scratch. Ultimately a very nice Level 2 lady promised me that unlike my experience to date, she would personally ensure that my Profile was improved and call me the next morning (today) between 9 and 10am to confirm everything was ok and if not, send out an engineer. By 10pm last night I indeed had a connection speed of 6.9MBps, the phone line was quiet, my Profile was 7.1MBps. She called this morning and I thanked her for her help and we went our seperate ways.
    Twenty minutes after her call it rained, the phone line became very noisy, my connection speed dropped to 2.5MBps dropping out every 5 minutes, disaster. I called it in again, another wasted 2 hours that I will never get back, only cut off twice this time, on one occasion I got a voice mail message saying "we were cut off, call in again and someone will help you" I felt quite angry by that point. On my final try I got through to someone who listened and has arranged an engineer for Tuesday (Christmas Eve!) but that as he can see nothing wrong with the line, and as the noise cleared up during the course of our conversation, that I will possibly get charged £129 for the privilige. Throughout all of this, no-one would consider the Telegraph pole damage as a potention cause of a HR fault, especially in the presence of water from rain. I have tried to get it across but one of the Bangalore crowd just gave me Openreach's telephone number to get it sorted, I only realised that was a 'get rid of him' tactic when the chap at Openreach said that basically they only deal with poles knocked over or dangerous in some other way.
    The last Adviser suggested I left it a few days and if not resolved call it in again, it was 13.03pm, I explained that it had taken from 10am to get to that stage with him, there was no way I was going to start from scratch reporting the same problem on Monday, he promised to call me on Monday (the day before the engineer visit was arranged) so we had time to cancel it if all was well (although as nothing was being done in the meantime, no IP profile reset etc it was most unlikely to mend itself by my past experience) He thought it was probably a faulty Hub, he asked me to refit the original which I did, the inevitabilty of the eventual fail is so draining.
    I live in a Rural area, there is no fibre optic, I have spent the last few minutes prior to registering on this forum investigating Satellite Broadband. Why can BT simply not send one person, capable of broadband AND phone? Why is the Indian Call-Centre so regimented in adhering to a standard script showing almost no initiative. What ever happened to the UK Call-Centre? Most importantly, bearing in mind that my current fault is the same as it has been since the van-crash - what do you Moderators suggest that I get the engineer to specifically do if on Tuesday when he turns up he finds 'no-issue'? - ask him to wait for it to rain?
    Apologies for this long rant but the inability to talk to a UK based, free-thinking Technical Help and Customer Service Departments must be costing a fortune. Forget the savings in running the technicians abroad, they cannot possible offset the wasted time, replacement equipment thats not needed, engineer visits that are not addressing the real issues (my first engineer was telephone, not broadband) and the resulting customer disatisfaction must force customers to leave BT in droves. I used to be with Plus Net and only transferred to get Vision, Bt own Plus Net, they could learn a great deal from their Customer Service model, this is all so sad.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Engineer called on Christmas Eve and diagnosed a HR fault which he struggled to find. In the end he re-routed the line feed back to the exchange (700 metres away), found the connection in the exchange, came back to the house and the phone line was silent and the broadband experienced a solid connection. Since then I have had a 4.8/4.9MBps connection as the IP profile is set at 5MB. I received a call from the Tech in Bangalore who put forward a reset for me but being by that time 5pm on Christmas Eve It would be unreasonable to expect it to be implimented before the end of play on Friday 27th - so I am being patient. 
    Many of us, who have vast experience, feel frustrated by the call-centre 'script' system that treats us all the same ("have you tried turning it off and on again? What colours are the lights on the front of the hub?"!!!) But just how do you get the Call Centre staff to appreciate that some of us can diagnose quite complicated problems on our own, and only contact them when we know an engineer is required on-site? Personally I would PAY to have a way of contacting a UK based BT Tech Support that could listen and respond appropriately, for BT, surely that would save them time and money too. 
    So other than the IP profile issue this is now solved, it was a High Resistance fault, I told them that when I first reported it on about 12th December (at which point the Bangalore Call Centre Chap said "what is a HR fault?" - I had to explain it). Since then I have spent probably 14 very frustrating hours on the telephone to BT (in the busiest week of the year), had two engineer visits (the first was a 'phone only' subcontractor not trained in broadband, the second fixed the issue) and I have also been supplied with a new Hub (which was unnecessary, I did point that out) and I am left feeling let down by their inability to listen and consider that the customer may have been right.
    If the speed issue is not resolved I will re-post stage two of this saga, other than that I do hope that I do not need to come back to post on the forum again. Simple faults turn into extended and unbelievable drama thanks to the way BT organise their customer service nowadays, everyone has at least one story, some have many. I have 10 months of my contract left, maybe I should go back to PlusNet ? They have UK based sensible staff and when I have experienced a fault in the past I have left it to them to bludgen BT engineering into mending the infrastructure, saving me doing do the leg-work, wasting all this time and getting frustrated and stressed myself.
    For those still struggling with the BT behemoth I sympathise, I hope that you are lucky enough to get through to someone who takes you seriously and does not let go of your problem until it is solved.
    Lets all hope for a Happy, Prosperous and Fault-Free New Year!
    Regards

    I  must say that I could not be more disappointed  with the new i tunes 11. I have been using if for four months and have had nothing but problems which, as I am a professional DJ who uses it everyday, is really bad news. Unlike the old itunes creating playlist is a laborious process. I just bought a load of tunes from the Itunes store for a podcast I have to do but, to create a playlist and drag from another playlist (i.e.purchased) seems impossible. Once one clicks on view sidebar the plalylist disappears so you have to search for every single tune. Can anyone help ? Is there a solution ? I have read the tutorials and have used I tunes for over a decade.To add, now I can't scroll down to the end of my playlists even to click on create or get to any playlist past those beginning with the  letter  S. I hope someone from Apple sees this as the old I tunes was a far better product. Creating a seperate window for playlist and drag and drop is far easier.  If I could find another application other than I tunes I would drop this like hot bricks.Apple have taken a huge leap backwards in my opinion.

    Open the playlist.  Click View > Show View Options, and set "Sort By" to "Manual Order."
    Then you will be able to move songs up or down your playlist by drag-n-drop.

  • "first open Acrobat and accept the End User Agreement License" with black window? Cannot open downloaded PDFs

    I have CS5 installed and operating in my MacBook Pro since 2012.
    Several months ago, I ran not an issue where by, when trying to download PDFs from any website, I get the following back screen and message"
    "Before proceeding, you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement"
    The screen gives me no options to do this and, regardless of what I do, the same window with the same message opens…….
    Does anyone know how to address this? FYI. I can use Acrobat Pro 9 to assemble and create PDFs, this is the ONLY problem that I am dealing with.
    Thanks so much!

    Hello Rave!
    Thanks for remembering me!
    No, I was never able to get this to work.
    What I found, however, is that I can view the pdfs normally if I use Firefox instead on my default, Safari…….not much of a fix BUT at least I can access the pdfs now……..I just don't understand why this seems to happen in Safari only………Safari is updated to the latest version via Software Update in Mac OS 10.7.5….
    Thanks again!

  • How do I include the End of Paragraph character with the other characters in a GREP definition?

    I have a character style that changes the line spacing.  The GREP definition that applies it is a period.  This selects everything bu t the Endo of Paragrpah character (EOP).  The result is that the entire paragraph reformats but the last line of text has the wrong spacing.
    I am new to GREP and have not yet found a way to include the EOP character in the change.  I have tried  the statement :    .*$   but that has no affect.

    Try defining a paragraph style with a smaller font and leading size then the default style and apply it to the pragraph using GREP definition of a period (all characters).
    That's exactly what I did. I started with 12/14 and changed to to a style using 8/9. Everything changed.
    There is no need to select all the text in a paragraph to assign a paragraph style since the style is aparagraph level attribute. You cannot have more than one paragraph style applied to a single paragraph, so it is IMPOSSIBLE that the end of paragraph marker has a different paragraph style applied than the rest of the paragraph. It IS possible, however, to apply a different character style or local formatting to it (and that's one reason it's better to use a triple-click instead of dragging to select an entire paragraph), so if the last line is not picking up the corrct spacing, the EOP character is either character styled or locally formatted.
    The only way you would know if this is the case is by selecting the EOP character, either as part of the entire paragraph, or by itself. If the paragraph style is then listed with a plus sign, there's local formatting applied. If not, check the character styles panel and I think you'll see a character style applied there (it would say mixed if you've selected the entire paragraph, unless of course you've applied the same character style to everything, which would be a major mistake).
    You can use GREP to remove the character style, if that's what it is, by searching for \r and in the change format set the character styel to [None]. This would work for all paragraphs regardless of waht the leading should be. If the incorrect specification is a local format, however, you would have to either select all text and remove local formatting (which might remove somethign you want, as well) or set up GREP searches to look for the \r with the correct paragraph style in the find formatting, then change the leading explicitly for that style inthe change formatting.

  • K8N Neo3 Issues (At the end of my rope)

    The parts I have are as follows:
    1x K8N Neo3 MOBO
    1x Sapphire x1600 Radeon Video Card 512MB PCIE
    1x AMD64 Sempron +3000 (Socket 754)
    1x WD 100GB HDD
    1x WD 250GB HDD
    2x DRAM Master PC3200 DDR400 Memory Modules
    1x DWL D-Link 11.0Mbps Wireless USB Adapter
    1x LiteOn 16X DVD Dual Drive (ATAPI/E-IDE)
    Some things to note:
    All of the parts have been tested in other machines and work perfectly. I'm currently running XP Pro on a 15gig partition on the 100GB HDD. All of the drivers are installed on this partition as well as firefox. On the other partition on that drive, I have 3DMark05 and windows media player classic installed. Both partitioned were made after formatting the entire drive. On the 250GB HDD, I have some anime and various wallpapers. Hardware acceleration currently set to two notches left of full. All of the drivers are up to date, and I have flashed the BIOS.
    The problems:
    First off, my CD driver could not read CDs all too well. In the middle of installation I'd get tons of errors which was odd considering the fact that the CD (XP Pro) worked in other comps. After I flashed the BIOS however, this problem was removed, or rather, it pops up less frequently.
    Another issue I'm having is with the memory. Both memory modules work well, and were memtested with no errors, however, unless I go to Advanced Chipset Features in the BIOS and enter into DRAM Configuration and change the timing mode to manual, set the Memclock Index Value to 250MHZ and the CAS# Latency to 3, I can't boot into XP. Instead, it'll clear POST, and then pretend like it's going to take me to XP, and then reboot. On the issue with memory, it's interesting to note that with my old sempron processor (AMD 3200+), I don't have to change any BIOS settings to get the RAM to work.
    The next problem on the list is with my video card. As mentioned previously, it's a Sapphire x1600 Radeon 512MB PCIE and I can't get it to work on this system for the life of me. I tested the card in a friend's computer (uninstalled his drivers and installed mine before attempting) and it worked like a dream. In mine however, whenever I go to run a graphic intensive program such as 3DMark05, it locks up after about 10 seconds, some times sooner. Occaisonaly VPU will kick in, but usually I have to perform a reboot. Even the little car animation in catalyst control center locks up my computer. It's interesting to note however that when watching anime, that I can usually go about 2 or 3 episodes before my computer freezes up on me, or just reboots.
    It's interesting to note that my computer has not rebooted on me while surfing the net, or typing stuff up.
    Another issue is that it seems like I can't go 10 or 15 minutes without something shutting down, such as firefox, or msn messenger due to errors. I've reinstalled windows and formatted twice now, and I'm still continually getting conflicts. I'm not sure if this issue might be tied into the ones I'm having with the motherboard, or if that even makes sense, but considering the fact I wasn't having these issues till I switched to this one, I'm ready to put the blame on it.
    My theories:
    My current theory is that there is a device driver conflict somewhere. After much searching, reinstalling, and a lot of crying, I've not been able to figure out what the video card is conflicting with. While this issue might be better dealt with on some ATI fourm, ATI has not such fourm I could find, and since I'm having issues with the board overall, I figured I'd post it here.
    I have no theory as to why one processor would have me to change bios setting to get the RAM to work, and why another wouldn't.
    I have no theory as to why I can watch anime, but not play games.
    What I'm hoping for:
    I'm open to any possible solutions to the problems I'm currently experiencing, and would even be grateful for possible causes if no solution can be met. If all else fails, and I can't get anything to work, (even though all the other parts work on other boards), I'll assume the board is faulty and just RMA it considering the fact that the people I bought it from don't accept returns.

    I plan to get a 450W PSU today and see if that helps, I have my fingers crossed though. Last time I though my computer had a power issue, it turned out the problem was somthing else and I forkedout some cash for nothing.
    Yep, that happens ... that is why I always recommend to try it out with a borrowed PSU first. Still, I have the feeling that things are moving in the right direction Maybe it is time to take a closer look at the videocard - you have any idea of the temperature of the card under stress - or about the temperatures in the computer in general? CPU temp, case temp, etc?
