Belkin has no Leopard support for its UPS

For those who are contemplating a Belkin UPS as protection for their iMacs, I purchased the F6C900-UNV after being told by the Belkin support personnel that it supports all MAC operating systems. After the purchase, and seemingly strange behavior by the unit, I spoke to several representatives of Belkin only to find out that NO, it does not support Leopard OS. Looking at their website, they support only earlier versions of the MAC OS. They have said that they will have the support sometime in the future, but could not give any answer as to an estimated date.

Thanks for everyones help. I just spent about an hour with the AppleCare tech going through many scenarios with this.
1) I deleted all of the software and just plugged in the UPS. The UPS tab did not show up in the Energy Saver. But more important, opening the Apple menu/About This Mac/More info.... and clicking on the Power option, it showed: "UPS Installed: No".
2) The same thing as above occurred when I installed the UPS software. With the software installed, I could activate the "Agent" portion of the software program and the Monitor showed that the UPS was installed with the appropriate Load and everything looked as though it should when there is a connection between the Mac and the UPS.
The Apple tech felt that the UPS with the Belkin software installed showed that the UPS was connected to the UPS. He said that the Mac may not be recognizing this particular UPS model since the upgrade for Leopard OS is not available yet from Belkin. This may be the reason that they feel the need to upgrade to another version. He did not feel that there was anything intrinsically wrong with the UPS hardware. Based on my recent contacts with Belkin, they would probably not accept a return based on the fact that it will still protect the Mac, but without the Automatic Power Software Management until their upgrade for Leopard is available.
I was wondering if there is any other suggestion that anyone might have as to any type of configuration or any overlooked condition that I might try on the Mac to bring back the ability to see the UPS in the Energy Saver?
I would feel more comfortable if the UPS was recognized by the MAC so that any configuration would assure me of correct output information.

  • Where is the Sony XZ1S C6916 support page?!?! Has Sony stopped support for this device?

    Hello community,
    Im new to sony community so please take it easy on me. I was able to access support information from sonys own xperia z1s support page. But as of last night, that page is no longer existent and any searches for C6916 redirect me to the Z1 support page with no information on Z1S. Has sony stopped supporting this device?

    I wouldn't like to say as the Z1s is a T-mobile specific locked phone and may have security features in place to only allow network signals via their firmware

  • IWork-Snow Leopard support for Greek spell checking?

  • When resuming from standby in OSX, firefox has no gesture support for scrolling, tapping to click or three finger flick back and forth in Snow Leopard

    This occurs in 10.6.8 Snow Leopard when resuming usage after the computer was in standby (closing the lid).
    I never experienced this with firefox 6. The problem arose with 7 and continues with 8.

    I'd like to chime in and add that there is currently no acceptable Font Management solution for OSX.
    Sorry, but it's true.
    Me, and every professional designer / ad agency / design firm I know struggles with this every day. In fact, most of them have resorted to the 'ol "temporarily drag said fonts into ~users/library/fonts, and then out again when you're done".
    That's no way to work.
    I've tried them all. And I know people who've tried them all. Font Book, Suitcase2, Font Explorer X, FontAgentPro, etc, etc. And they ALL have major problems. Especially when you have more than a few hundred fonts. Which most designers easily do.
    We need a robust, stable, AUTO-ACTIVATING solution ala ATM in os9... I'm not a programmer, but I gotta ask: why is this so hard?
    I've used Font Dr to check and re-check ALL my fonts. Most of which are bought-and-paid-for professional versions. I keep a bare minimum of fonts activated at startup. I've read all the "How Fonts Work in OSX" articles, and I know what the heck I'm doing! But my font life on Panther, Tiger, Leopard and now Snow Leopard has been a living ****.
    YES the Helvetica disaster is a huge problem. But I think the issue is much, much larger.
    I spend literally HOURS of billable time each week dealing with this nightmare. When it comes time to design something, and find "the perfect font" for a headline, or a logo –which is something that used to fill me with glee– I'm consumed by dread. Having to yet again wade through this depressing morass of stupidity.
    Sorry for the rant. But this issue is literally EVERYWHERE on forums and message boards, but NOWHERE in MacWorld, ArsTechnica, CNET, etc, etc. AKA the kinds of pubs that could actually hold Apple's and the other companies feet to the fire on this issue.
    Something MUST be done.
    Darnit!

  • SAP Support for ITS version iViews on ESS

    Hi All,
    I heard that SAP will not be supporting all the transactions on Poratl used in ITS version from 2009 onwards. Is that true ?
    Pls let me know ...!
    Any support doc for this statement ?
    Reagards
    Vijay

    Vijay,
    What version of ITS are you referring to ? Standalone 6.20 or Integrated ITS?
    Some transactions will probably not be supported as the integrated ITS has some limitations due to weblogic.

  • Has Adobe ended support for Photoshop CS5

    I use Secunia PSI to monitor my software for updates. Right around the time CS6 shipped, PSI started reporting all of my CS5 applications as "end of life" meaning no more patches will be released.
    Is it correct that CS5 is no longer supported with patches?
    CS5 to CS6 seems like an upgrade of just one version, but maybe Adobe considered CS5.5 to be a full version upgrade?

    Generally speaking, Adobe always stops releasing point revisions of their software the minute a new major version is released.
    Version 12.anything is considered CS5, and the 12.0.4 patch for Photoshop CS5 brought it up to be functionaly equivalent of Photoshop CS5.5 (save for cloud licensing).
    That said, there's a 12.0.5 that's "half released" to address some concerns over a vulnerability when opening TIFF files that was brought to light around the time of the Ps CS6 release.  It's not clear whether 12.0.5 is ever going to be released through the mainstream software update process.
    Out of curiosity, why do you use a 3rd party update monitoring package?  Adobe has one of its own.

  • GUIxt support for ITS

    Hi all,
    We have modified some of our SAP screens using GUIxt. If I access these transactions using ITS will the changes made to screen using GUIxt be visible through ITS also?
    I am using ITS version 6.20 with patch level 21. do i need to install anything on ITS to get this functionality?
    Your help will be rewarded.
    thanks,

    Siddharth,
    ITS 6.20 patch 21 on Windows does support GUIXT.  You need to enable the GUIXT functionality in the ITS Server, and put the GUIXT templates on the server as well.  Visit the synactive web site for more information...

  • Has Pacman3 dropped support for the NoUpgrade Lines in pacman.conf?

    I just upgraded to Pacman 3.  When I upgraded I quickly saw some output on my sceen saying it was doing a one time "reset" and I believe it said I could delete the NoUpgrade lines in pacman.conf.
    I noticed that pacman.conf.pacnew does not have any NoUpgrade lines.
    Should I delete all the NoUpgrade lines from my pacman.conf file?
    Is the NoUpgrade line no longer supported in pacman3? 
    If so, how can I protect some of my config files from being overwritten during upgrades?
    Rob

    They're still supported, there just aren't any by default anymore. They were redundant.
    You can/should remove any that are listed in the "backup" list for the packages they come from (pacman -Qii package). Those are all handled as if they were in NoUpgrade anyway.

  • My pavilion dv6 3031sa has the wrong GPU for its model

    So I bought a new system board for my laptop online without knowing which model it came from, so I checked the Bios for the product number which is XB531EA#ABU. Then I checked HP drivers website and entered the product number which said the model number is Dv6-3031sa. When I researched the specifications for that model, it says the GPU in this board should be Radeon HD 5470m. However driver updates detected Radeon 5650m, hardware Ids in device manager confirms it is a 5650m
    PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_68C1&SUBSYS_1440103C&REV_00
    PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_68C1&SUBSYS_1440103C
    PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_68C1&CC_030000
    PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_68C1&CC_0300
     It is a better GPU so I'm not complaining, just windering why the model and GPU's down match. Thanks

  • [SOLVED] WINE has no more support for xinput?

    Short version: WINE programs no longer have pressure sensitivity. Tablet works fine in non-WINE programs like GIMP.
    I hope this falls under multimedia because my Windows graphics programs (Artrage, Photoshop) don't have pressure sensitivity any more. I've checked with GIMP and Xournal, xinput works fine there, though they are drastically less sensitive than their Windows counterparts (unfortunately). Unless there's a patch that makes GIMP understand more than 256 levels of pressure, I think I'll stick to photoshop.
    Anyway, I was wondering if anyone out there is experiencing the same thing (I'm using a Wacom Tablet, though I do have that newish 12WX cintiq). I definitely was using Photoshop and Artrage through WINE perfectly before, pressure sensitivity and even tilt was great.
    But now, I have no idea what happened. Is there something wrong with the WINE configuration, you think? Or is it my best bet just to downgrade WINE or update the linuxwacom drivers (to the beta)?
    Thanks in advance,
    feminaexlux
    PS. WINE is 1.1.5, Linuxwacom is 8.0.3

    Guess it was a wine bug. Compiled Wine 1.1.4 from source, and things are now working as they should.

  • How do I get support for Windows 7 on, and a W7 backup disk for, my new ThinkPad?

    I know these have got to be stupid questions, since I am sure that they have to have been asked before (unless they are clearly explained somewhere that everyone else has found, and I am somehow completely missed it), but I did search the forums and was surprised NOT to find any info on getting Windows 7 technical support after it was factory installed in a month-old Thinkpad. I wonder if the apparent defects in my W7, or maybe a different problem in my browser, could be affecting my ability to search to forums?
    I believe that my Windows 7 is defective, but calling Lenovo, they just talked about reinstalling Win7 from the partition, which makes no sense, if my W7 copy is defective, wouldn't the copy in the partition be defective too? My mom said she ordered a $20 W7 backup disk with the PC, but I never received it, and now Lenovo tech tells me those aren't actually available, and she must have confused it with the W7 upgrade disk, which didn't sound right, since I thought the upgrade disk was over $100, and I never received that one either anyway. If the W7 that was factory-installed is defective, I am assuming it's a copy of the same one in the partition, so that partition recovery is not feasible, is there any way to reorder a W7 re-install disk that will still register as Genuine Windows 7 on a Thinkpad? Now when I search the Lenovo site, I cannot find ANY W7 disks of any kind, neither a backup for factory-installed W7, nor for upgrade from a prior Windows version. Does anyone know how I could go about re-ordering the W7 backup disk when it appears to be missing from the online catalog? Unless this too is a defect in my browser search: can someone give me the link to page where I could select and re-purchase a W7 backup disk?
    It has been a few years since I had a new PC, but I have never even heard of one before that did not come with instruction manuals and OS and support disks, and did not provide any tech support for its own factory-installed software or Windows, at least during the first few months of ownership. Where do new Thinkpad owners turn for individual W7 software support, since Microsoft swears it is Lenovo's responsibility to support W7 under its OEM license, yet Lenovo swears they only support hardware? It almost seems that new users are expected to know everything already, or be initiated enough with the product to know exactly what your problem is and what's causing it, in order to find an online fix. Who do you call if W7 or Lenovo software (but not an ISP issue) appear to be doing something to prevent online access, but there are no discernible hardware issues? Where do you call for individualized W7, as well as Lenovo software, support, especially after no one online has ever heard of your specific issues and has no workable ideas for fixing them, or when your problem prevents you from getting online at all?
    Thanks so much

  • Abandoned Support for X40 ?

    Lenovo/Thinkvantage updates for Windows 7 have begun to exclude support for X40. Has Lenovo abandoned support for X40 ? My X40/2372 with SSD runs just fine under Windows 7. I trusted Lenovo's "cost of ownership" promise. It seems Lenovo has abandoned support for X40s running Windows 7. Is this so? If Lenovo has not abandoned support for X40s under Windows 7, which version of System Update and Access Connections supports X40 under Windows 7?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Welcome to the forum!
    As per MS's own guidelines, X40 is not deemed powerful enough to run Vista or W7, due to its outdated graphics chipset.
    All of these machines are over five years old now and expecting support for an OS that is two releases behind the newest one that they were originally shipped with is rather optimistic - I know of no laptop manufacturer that provides that kind of support.
    All of that said, trial and error is the only way to go, and find out what works and what doesn't. I do it with my older ThinkPads all the time.
    Good luck.
