Back in love with my Wallstreet

Well, after a year packed away in the wardrobe, I've dug out my Wallstreet II to bring it back to life for my 3 year old daughter. Wow, after tweaking here and there to get 10.4.x running on it via Xpostfacto (I know it's not supported, I'm just informing some owners that it is possible), and purchasing a new battery for UK£35 it's running just great Oh, I must mention that a few years ago I did add a PowerLogix G4 500Mhz upgrade, a 30GB HD and USB, FireWire and Wireless cards - seemed such a shame to let it RIP after spending all that money on it over the past 9 years.
Oh, and I just missed a 1.5Ghz G4 15" PowerBook on eBay this morning that went for £200 - that makes all of this work simply futile
Oh well.

Hi cornelius
We have 3 Macs in the house - a 2.1 Ghz G5 iMac, a 1Ghz G4 iMac and that upgraded Powerbook, and I'm with you - the difference is marginal for most uses (saying that, I wouldn't choose to use the PowerBook for work . But I'd like to see a HUGE difference in speed before I purchase a new one
Cheers
Paul

IPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers?

iPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers? I downloaded old version of Numbers 2.0.1 from DVD but with both versions the 2.0.1 will not open. So both versions are present but only the new version functions. I tried to drag the new version to the trash but the old version still runs error message and will not open. I did not try to restart with the new version in the trash.

Maybe. See:

Long back-and-forth with Lenovo... any suggestions?

Below is a excruciatingly detailed record of my long struggle with Lenovo's customer support regarding my T61, for which I purchased a warranty that is good until June 26, 2010. This is the result of painstaking documentation all along the way; I have the actual case reference numbers and serial numbers, etc., if it would help anyone from Lenovo who happens across this.
On Monday, April 27, 2009, my T61 (7662-CTO) began
experiencing persistent crashes. The machine would give me a BSOD
(Blue Screen of Death) on occasion while in Windows. Despite repeated
installations of my graphic card's drivers (for the Nvidia Quadro NVS
140m), the problem continued to worsen. Eventually, the machine
refused to even boot up, throwing out a 'memory parity error' BSOD
soon after the Windows boot-up screen. Even my attempts at
reinstalling Windows (Vista Home Premium x86) did nothing to correct
the issues. It was increasingly apparent that I was facing a hardware
problem.
Since my machine remains under warranty, I called Lenovo's tech
support. After a bit of redundant troubleshooting (he asked me to
reinstall drivers that I had already installed multiple times), the
support agent agreed to send out a box and have the machine shipped
out to EasyServ in Tennessee. Reluctantly, I agreed and sent the box
off. This was Lenovo case reference number 1.
The service was amazingly quick, as I had the machine back in just
over 36 hours. That I appreciated. I was less grateful for the state
of the machine upon its return. True, the BSOD/graphics card issues
had apparently been addressed; the form letter returned with the
laptop claimed that EasyServ 'Quality Technician' A. Rios had replaced
the 'PLANAR CARD ASM EXTERNAL VIDEO' --part number 41W1489. Glad to
have my machine back for work, I once again reinstalled Windows Vista.
Yet I soon realized that the machine had another serious problem.
Putting my T61 into sleep was a risky proposition; within several
minutes, all indicator lights would blink off, and the machine would
offer no signs of life. Pushing the power button did nothing.
Replacing the battery did nothing. Whether plugged in or not, the
machine refused to respond. Repeated power button pushes would
occasionally rouse the machine to 'life,' but as soon as it dropped
into sleep mode again, it would eventually drop dead.
Increasingly unhappy, I called Lenovo support again. They apologized
for the continued faulty hardware and sent out another overnight box
for the return freight to Tennessee. I dutifully shipped the T61 out
again--this was case reference number 2. Once again, the machine
zipped through EasyServ very quickly. It came back 2 days later, with
a "Repair Action Report" form that indicated that M. Anderson had
service the machine. Checked off were boxes for "system board/planar"
(though what exact part was replaced was not indicated this time),
"updated BIOS/embedded controller," and "performed PC Doctor
diagnostics to ensure hardware functionality."
Assured that my problems were (finally!) fixed, I set to reinstalling
Windows. I did all the little software installations and tweaks that I
need to get work done on my new machine. But once everything was set
up, another problem popped up its ugly head. When I did anything that
required some processor power (say, watching video online or running a
virus scan), the machine would mysteriously and spontaneously freeze
up and drop itself into sleep mode. When roused from its stupor, the
machine would immediately give up and return to sleep. Aggravated, I
tried yet another fresh install of Windows and was astonished to find
out that Vista refused to install properly, citing an 'incompatible
hardware' error.
Needless to say, I called Lenovo support once again (case reference
number 3). The first technician I spoke to demanded
that I remove the hard drive I had placed into the machine with the
one originally shipped with the T61. I protested that this was the
Seagate Momentus 7200.2 (200 GB), and it was unlikely that it was the
source of the problem (since the original hard drive had been the
Seagate Momentus 7200.1 (60 GB). But apparently having no choice, I
gave in. We ended our call, I opened up the machine, and swapped hard
drives. I also went ahead and pulled out the extra RAM I had put into
the box--anticipating the next technicians' likely protests. When
Windows gave me the same errors as before, I called Lenovo back. I
explained the whole situation, going back to the video card
replacement that started the whole series of issues. When I explained
how I had attempted to reinstall Windows, the technician repeatedly
asked me if I had changed the boot order on the machine. "No," I
answered. "You don't actually need to. The BIOS throws up a 'Press any
key to boot from the CD/DVD drive' prompt." There was a short pause.
"Did you change the BIOS boot order?" I rolled my eyes and eventually
capitulated to the technician's request. After thus proving that I
actually did know how to boot from my DVD drive, the technician asked
about my installation disc. "You don't have the Rescue and Recovery
discs?" he asked, obviously confused. "No," I answered. "The only disc
I received with my laptop was a clean Vista install/upgrade disc."
There was a long pause, after which the technician insisted that I use
the Lenovo-issued R&R discs.
After receiving said discs through UPS (4 days later), I tried things
again. The Lenovo R&R program was able to successfully re-image my
hard drive with Vista Home Premium. But the odd spontaneous sleep
problem remains. Determined to receive the 'incompatible hardware'
error I had received before, I tried reinstalling with the vanilla
Vista disc; this time, the installation proceeded without a hitch, and
this is the OS that's installed now on the machine. Yet the sleep mode
problem remains. After monitoring system temperature during
high-intensity computing (i.e. running virus scan, Windows Defender
scan, and HD online video all at the same time), it seems likely that
there is some sort of overheating issue. The machine (specifically, the "ACPI Thermal Zone," according to the temperature-monitors program I used) occasionally leaps to 97 degrees Celsius and higher, and this seems to correspond
to the shut-downs.
Eager to avoid another EasyServ roundabout, a new technician and I agreed that taking the T61 to a licensed Lenovo warranty service provider would probably be the best option. He offered the Duke Computer Repair shop as my first option. "Great!" I thought, "I'm a Duke student; this should be relatively painless." What the Lenovo rep. DIDN'T tell me was that Duke charged $90 to work on any machine that wasn't bought through their Computer Store. I discovered this when I drove to the Duke repair shop and talked to the people there (who were, admittedly, apologetic and very willing to offer advice). Not excited about shelling out cash to have my warranty honored, I opted to take the laptop to the next nearest authorized Lenovo warranty service provider. This was a 25-minute drive for me, but I had few other options that didn't involve a $90 service charge. Choice received the machine in on Tuesday, May 19th.
The Lenovo-approved warranty service technician here was remarkably helpful and engaged. He WAS able to reproduce the problem; the laptop aborted into sleep when the CPU was pushed, just as it did for me. Roger also ran a full diagnostic, but his diagnostic did not return any hardware failures that he could replace. He 'discharged the capacitors,' holding the power button down for a full 30 seconds (a process similar to what brought the laptop out of its dead state under case reference number 30TQLB5 above. This seemed to resolve things, he explained, and he encouraged me to take the machine home and see how things went. Unfortunately, the issue persists; pushing the CPU to 100% drops my T61 into sleep mode, often repeatedly
I called Lenovo again. The technician demanded that I install the Power Manager and power management driver from Lenovo before we proceed any further. I resisted, convinced long ago that the machine was suffering a hardware issue, NOT a driver issue) and asked to speak to the technician's supervisor. He said, "Fine," and abruptly dropped me to being on hold. Fully fifteen minutes later (I timed this), another technician picked up, entirely unaware that I had spoken to anyone else or that I was "waiting" for a supervisor. I do not know if I was actually in queue to speak to that first technician's supervisor, or whether that technician had grown tired and decided to relegate me to hold music limbo. The second technician decided to open a new case (my fourth case reference number). He, too, demanded that I install the relevant drivers. Relucantly, I hung up and installed the driver and Power Manager utility.
The problem persisted. In fact, after the installation, the machine went into sleep twice during the startup process--before I even reached the Vista desktop. I called Lenovo back. Running through his protocols, the technician asked whether I had updated the BIOS (the second EasyServ service had done this, and I had double-checked this when I got the machine back). He asked again whether I had actually installed the Power Manager and power management driver. I had. The technician then gave me the equivalent of a shrug. "We could send it back to the depot," he offered, referring again to EasyServ. When I explained (again) that the Lenovo-approved warranty service provider had run all the relevant diagnostics, found no replaceable part, and acknowledged that a problem remained. When I asked the technician on the line about a possible system replacement, he was quick to claim that his department--the system support specialists--could not do this. He shrugged me off and suggested that I call the sales department about any sort of replacement or refund. "And will they have access to my case reference information?" I asked, incredulous that he was referring me to sales--two full years after the machine's actual purchase. "I don't know," he answered. "All I know is that I can't do anything else."
It has now been three and a half weeks since my machine first began having major issues. This laptop has been to EasyServ twice and come back each time with new hardware-related issues. It has been taken to a Lenovo-approved warranty service provider, who acknowledged and reproduced the problem but was unable to repair it. I have called Lenovo's customer support number at least a dozen times and spent HOURS giving case reference numbers, explaining and REexplaining my issues, and waiting on hold. I have gotten little actual work done in these past weeks. I have reinstalled or reimaged Windows at LEAST 10 times. My school fieldwork requires me to have a working machine. I also enrolled in lynda.com's online tutorials for the month of May (through Duke University), but these extended, unresolved problems have cost me dearly. If there is anything that anyone on these forums can do, please help. Help me get my warranty honored. Please, help restore my faith in the Thinkpad legacy.
Thanks for your time.

TPFanControl reads the temperatures reported by your ThinkPad's "embedded controller"--which controls the fan speed. You can use it just for monitoring temperatures, you don't have to control the fan with it (read the documentation for the config file).
RMClock, among other things, plots cpu frequency, voltage and temperature vs. time. This can be useful to observe when your cpu is throttling itself to avoid overheating. You can also use RMClock to undervolt your cpu to lower temperatures. But you shouldn't have to do that to prevent the problems you're having.
mprime in torture test mode will stress your cpu and memory. You can run this while monitoring your system temperatures. At the very least, running the mprime torture test should quickly tell you whether your unwanted sleep is indeed correlated with cpu activity.

How do I back up iPhone with iTunes?

I need to get back in touch with UK based technica...

Background - a few weeks ago I received help on the forum in connection with my modem re-booting, usually in the early morning. I got in touch with Bt Customer support who helped by getting the noise level back down but I still suffered from re-booting, consequent increases in snr and lower speeds. I switched from the HH3 to a Billion bipac 7700n router. This was a vast improvement. No more re-booting but occasional re-syncs instead - at least the snr and DSL speed stayed roughly at the same level. I did however want to eliminate the 4-5 re-syncs per day - a nuisance if you are trying to use the PC or streaming music when the connection drops. Customer support advised me to test the router in the BT test socket. Alas, when I looked inside my BT master socket I found that I hadn't got a test socket. Bt Customer support splendidly arranged for a BT engineer to come the next day to fit a test socket. This was just before Xmas.
With Xmas over, guests having gone and continuing to suffer from re-syncing, I connected the router directly to the new BT test socket. In the space of 9 hours there were 4 re-syncs.
I e-mailed Bt customer support an extract from the router's systems log to seek their help. Within minutes I had a call from an operator in BT India who put me through to their technical desk. Unfortunately the technical desk did not have my e-mail and did not seem very interested in the background to my issue. After an hour in the phone I spoke to a supervisor who explained that he could not take my problem further until I had tried a new HH3.
Well the HH3 turned up today. On connection my snr went up to 10db and the DSL speed down from 6656 kbps to 4344 kbps. Needless to say I have disconnected the HH3.
I should add that the BT engineer who fitted the new master socket said that in his view I needed a Broadband boost engineer and that he would put this in his report.
Advice on how to get back in contact with Uk based support would be welcome. I had been making good progress!

I just bought a new iPhone and accidentally backed it up with my old iPhone backup, I do not want this. I lost everything on my new phone and I need it back. PLEASE HELP! This includes pictures and texts, etc.

So just to be clear, when you say "just bought" how long ago was that? Is it on this new iPhone that you had pictures, texts, etc that you want? Were you backing up to iCloud or onto iTunes?
This may not help for everything but if you go to iCloud.com and log in, are you able to find your pictures there?

Can I back up computer with time machine on lion then reinstall snow leopard and restore from backup safely?

If your machine came with Snow Leopard or earlier and you have your install disks, yes, you can reinstall SL. However, you will need to erase the entire hard drive so you will lose all your files. Also note that there are some apps (such as Mail) which can't be downgraded "automatically" such as with a restore from Time Machine. Here is some info on TM:

michel p.

I usually err on the sideof caution when someone says "downloaded" and take it to mean anything fro actually downloaded, to copies, to imported, to moved (frolder to folder), but even if they were "downloaded"... if the old email was hacked, and subseuqently closed out, that leaves the downloaded files "orphaned" if you will, belonging to the old ID. So, while they may be on the HD, they're inaccessible now.

I have a mid 2010 Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard and foolishly upgraded to Yosemite. Now have numerous problems. Is it possible to go back in time with Time Machine and reinstall Snow Leopard? Then upgrade to Lion or Mavericks? Any other ideas on how I can exit Yosemite?

Once you get yourself back to Snow Leopard, if you still want to upgrade somewhat, I would suggest the following:
1. Get an external hard drive that you can use for experiments with new OS versions. You could partition it into 2 or 3 partitions. You could then clone your existing Snow Leopard system to one partition using Carbon Copy Cloner (well worth $40) or SuperDuper ($25).
2. Buy OS X Mountain Lion for $20, through the Apple online store (I don't think it's available through the App Store). Apple has decided to make it very difficult for anyone to get Mavericks unless they have already downloaded it.
You will receive two e-mails from Apple, one containing a PDF with a redemption code, and one with the password you will need to unlock the PDF. Using the code, you will download Mountain Lion from the App Store, where it will appear among your Purchased items.
After ML finishes downloading, its installer app will launch itself. When you see this launch screen, QUIT the install app immediately! Go to your applications folder, find the Install OS X Mountain Lion app, and copy it to a safe location outside of your Applications folder. Keeping one or more copies will allow you to reinstall without unnecessary aggravation if you later need or want to do that. At this point, you can re-launch the Installer in the Applications folder and let it run. You can install it on a clean partition on your external HD, or you can allow it to upgrade the Snow Leopard clone you created on your external drive, or you can do both. This should allow you to test how everything works for as long as you like.
3. If you left yourself a free partition on your test drive, try a clean install of Yosemite and set everything up from scratch (do not migrate anything). This will allow you to see whether your problems with it were related to something in your Snow Leopard system.

The ipad screen is white. Holding buttons didn't work so I restored it on iTunes. When I press home and on switch, the screen is white, goes black then back to white with no logo at all. Can't get past the white screen. This happened after running app updates. Is there any fix besides going to Apple store? In iTunes on computer can see what is on there. 16GB OS 7.1.1

FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
3. Repeat the process if necessary.

Using LOV with Validation on the Numeric Fields results in Error

Dear JHeadstart Team,
During my work with lov I encountered another problem. I defined a lov and attached the lov to a numeric field and check the LOV for validation. Now when I use LOV using the LOV button it works fine but when I enter some numbers and then press tab the LOV was not shown correctly and resulted in the following errors and the worst thing is that you can not navigate to any other pages and all try to navigate to other pages results in errors too. When we put the same LOV on a string field (which is not desirable for us) it worked fine.
It seems to me like a bug. Am I right? Is ther any solution or workaround for this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Navid

Hi Navid,
We ran into the same bug and have the next workaround for it:
We extended the JHeadstart class 'LovItemBean' and we have overridden the method 'validateWithLov(...)' with:
public void validateWithLov(ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent)
    Object newValue = valueChangeEvent.getNewValue();
    if(newValue != null && !(newValue instanceof String))
      newValue = newValue.toString();
      ValueChangeEvent newEvent = new ValueChangeEvent(valueChangeEvent.getComponent(), valueChangeEvent.getOldValue(), newValue);
      newEvent.setPhaseId(valueChangeEvent.getPhaseId());
      super.validateWithLov(newEvent);
    else
      super.validateWithLov(valueChangeEvent);
}Next step is to use a custom template in your JHeaedstart Application Structure file for 'LOV_ITEM_BEAN'. In this custom template you should use your own class as 'managed-bean-class' instead of the default JHeadstart one.
Now you can safely generate LOV with validation of number fields.
Maybe something the JHeadstart can pcik up in the next release of JHeadstart :-)
Hope this helps.

What is wrong with this maverick OS?

The only people who can possibly assist you with this is Apple Customer Relations, call your local Apple contact number and ask for Customer Relations then explain your situation clearly and politely (be firm but don't rant).
You might want to investiage what the local laws are regarding defective goods and 'fit for use' definitions on warranties etc. Consumer Protection can be a useful tool to use or bargain with if needed ...

How to go back in Finder with touch gesture?

In Snow Leopard, I could to go back in Finder with two finger swipe. (equal with Safari's backword gesture)
Now, Safari support go back by one finger swipe, but Finder does not. How can enable this?

I think there might be a bug or two in how Finder responds to gestures.
1) Finder does not use "Natural" gestures - the above solution does enable the Forward/Backward gestures in Finder, but they work exactly opposite from Safari. Swiping left should got forward and swiping right should go backward.
2) Finder requires 3-finger swipes for forward/backward, but Safari uses 2-finger swipes. This is annoying because I have to train myself to use different gestures for the same functionality. And it is also a true limitation bug because I cannot have both the "3-finger drag" and the "2- or 3-finger forward/backward for Finder" gestures enabled at the same time.

Using LOV with bind var as custom attribute?

I have an Portal LOV which uses a bind variable.
Can I use this LOV as a custom attribute? If so, how do I specific the bind variable value?
In the display option of the attribute I tried LOV_NAME(LOV_Bind => 'value'), but the LOV is not applied.

It's been quite a while, but I think I remember trying this and not being able to achieve it. You can use a LOV with a bind variable in a report or in a form, or similar, but there is no way in an item to from specify where to get the bind variable. My suggestion if this is a requirement would be to use a portal form which submits to a stored procedure or pl/sql generated form to gather the attributes and then programmatically create the item using the APIs. Takes a bit of work, but gets you exactly what you described above.
