Bell Sympatico DSL Provider Position on Safari Use on their Website.

Q. I'm a Mac user and want to be able to use all the features on bell.ca. Why am I having problems?
A. Unfortunately, bell.ca does not officially support the Mac browser and operating system combination. Currently, the overwhelming majority of bell.ca customers and visitors use Internet Explorer 7.0, Internet Explorer 6.0, Firefox 2.0 and Firefox 1.5 on a Windows XP operating system.
Despite the lack of official Mac browser/OS support, bell.ca has been coded using W3C standards. That means the majority of pages will work as intended on the Mac platform. The My Bell section of the site, however, may pose a challenge for Mac users. We suggest using Firefox version 2.0 for the Mac to take advantage of the logged-in portion (My Bell) of the site.
If you're unable to log in through the homepage, go to www.bell.ca/login and enter your bell.ca username and password.
We do evaluate site performance using a Mac OS/Safari combination, but we do not do extensive testing.

K --
What "Network Optimizer" did you try?
Please look over this list, and go through them all, OK?
Then tell us how you're doing . . .
1. Empty your cache & History settings via the Safari menu
Any improvement?
2. Quit Safati.Trash your Icons Folder:
HD>Users>Home>YourName>Library>Safari -->Icons
Restart Safari and a new folder will be automatically regenerated.
(This folder saves favicons of all the sites you visit. Needs cleaning periodically -- or you can change that file's preferences to "Read Only"
rather than "Read & Write." This will keep it from growing in size.)
Restart Safari. Is it better?
3. Launch Font Book and check all fonts for duplicates. A duplicated font will have a bullet beside the font family and you can resolve duplicates by selecting the font and at the menu bar, go to Edit > Resolve Duplicates.
Do this for each font with a bullet next to it. Restart Safari & Test.
If you're still having problems:
4. Shut down your computer . . . unplug the computer, modem, and router, if you have one. Let everything sit for 2-3 minutes. Plug everything back in, start up your modem & router. After the lights settle in, then restart your computer.
5. Do you have internet apps SpeedDownload, iGetter, PithHelmet, Acid Search, Safari Enhancer ? Or Norton or Virex? Sometimes non-apple internet apps need updating or uninstalling. If you do, let us know which ones and which version, please.
6. Check your Syster Preferences>Network>Automatic>Built-in Ethernet Settings. Have you chosen "Using DHCP?" And under the Tab "Proxies" is anything checked off? If so, uncheck all.
Hope this helps

Can't Send messages using mail on Bell South DSL

My parents are using Bell South DSL and a Net Gear Wireless Router. I have a Linksys Wireless Router living in GA and everything works fine. Any ideas what is going on here?
I receive all my email, I just can't send messages.

Ernie,
Greetings! I found this thread after trying in vain to set up my mom's email, which also stopped working with Bellsouth after the upgrade to 10.5 (now on 10.5.1). Email conversion was fine, and she, like others here, could receive mail but not send it.
I have followed the directions here to the letter. Still no such luck. To clarify, mail.bellsouth.net, port 25, no authentication is the only entry in her outgoing mail server list (and it's selected). Moreover, when she checks Connection Doctor, it passes with flying colors - even connecting for outgoing email.
Still pondering this one. I'm about "this close" to getting her a Gmail account (which I tested using my account - and it works fine, even IMAP). Of course if she can keep her existing account I think she'd prefer that, but I say go with whatever works ... !
Other troubleshooting thoughts welcome!

DSL Crashes When Attempt to Use Video & Audio

Hi Guys,
I need a little help. I just bought my iSight and it works great. My problem is when I go to use in a video or audio conference mode, my DSL crashes after about 25 seconds into the iChat connection. I never get connected. I've had no problems whatsoever with the system until now. I'm using a Linksys WRT54G connected to my DSL modem and ethernetted to my iMac. It crashes this way - and it does it with my Powerbook when I attempt to connect wirelessly. Any thoughts? Both Linksys and SBC have proven to be no help.
Thanks,
GT

thanks "EZ Jim Level 4", you're correct when you state that "easy" means different things to different people, but i don't think anyone would consider simply providing weblinks to webpages that offer little more than general troubleshooting ideas to be any kind of fix, "easy" or not. this is the typical arrogance that exists in today's tech industry. create a product and provide little meaningful support if it fails to perform even the most basic functions promised. can you imagine if the auto industry worked this way? pay for a new car and the first time you turn the key it doesn't start? yeah right. ONLY the computer industry gets away with this lunacy.
but i digress. i am virtually certain that my iSight and iChat are working properly - at least in as much as they require no other equipment or software in order for them to work "properly".
and the problem does NOT appear to reside with my router which has been, and continues, to work perfectly with my DSL modem and all other computers connected thereto provided, of course, i'm not trying to establish a video connection via my iSight/iChat.
so that pretty much leaves the modem as the culprit. there must be some sort of software or settings conflict between my DSL modem and iSight and/or iChat (or both). i know this because my web connection crashes even when i'm connected directly to the modem (bypassing the router entirely). by the way, SBC has confirmed that i do NOT have any firewalls in place via my modem (so don't bother suggesting that firewalls may be the problem).
unfortunately, SBC is completely unwilling to assist beyond making sure i that my modem provides me with an internet connection. since it does, and i only have problems when trying to use my iSight/iChat in conjunction with my internet connection, SBC will do nothing more for me - ESPECIALLY ONCE THEY LEARN THAT I'M USING A MAC.
now considering that SBC is the largest DSL provider in the country, i gotta think that SOMEONE AT APPLE should be able to fix this. either that or they ain't gonna be selling too many more iSights. and providing weblinks to general troubleshooting webpages ain't gonna do it. SO SOMEONE PLEASE HELP.
thanks.

My DSL provider says they only allow one wireless network--

My DSL provider says they only allow one wireless network. Can I do the following?
My existing wireless network consists of a single DSL/ActionTec modem connected to an Airport Extreme (configured using two additional Airport Expresses for wireless printing and air-tunes). I have great wireless coverage all through my house. My office is in a detached building about 200 feet from my house. I want to tap into my existing wireless system by running a Cat5 cable to my office and set up another Airport Express (and two more airport expresses for printing and air-tunes for my office). Would this technically be considered two separate wireless networks if I run the Cat5 cable between the two Airport Extremes (since there would only be one connection to the ActionTec DSL modem)? Would my DSL provider know I have established a secondary wireless network? Would my DSL provider have any ability to prevent these two separate networks from working properly on one DSL line?

It really doesn't make much difference. If you run it from your DSL modem, you will in effect have two separate networks, but they should still be able to talk to each other. If you run it from your Airport from the LAN prt, that will work too but the DHCP you will set up in your office will have to be different from your first Airport. For example: If your first Airport is set up to hand out IP addresses on the 10.0.1.X network, your office irrport will have as it's WAN IP 10.0.1.Y and the wirless IP Range will have to be something like 192.168.1.x. But again, it shouldn't make much of a difference either way. itunes etc, will still work.

Does anyone know how to connect to Bell South DSL under PPPoE?

I am having problems connecting to the internet.I have Bell South DSL. I was using a Dell laptop which used a USB cable to connect to the internet. Now that I have my first Apple (Macbook) I have been told to use the Ethernet cable that Bell South gave me instead of the USB. (They gave me both and they are labled) But the Ethernet cable B.S. gave me doesnt seem to fit into any ports on my Macbook. Once I get that situated, I was told to set my settings to PPPoE. Does anyone know how to do this or have any suggestions to my cable problem? And how do I get to Tiger from my Macbook? I cannot seeem to find it. Any input is appreciated.

Assuming "BellSouth" uses the same procedure as "SBCGlobal", which are now both ATT/Yahoo, as far as I know:
Take router from box. Connect to power outlet and phone outlet.
Take Ethernet cable, plug one end into the router's jack marked LAN, plug other end into your computer's Ethernet jack.
Point your Web browser to 192.168.1.1 (enter this into your browser's address bar, actual address might vary, check your router's documentation.)
A Web form will appear. Set router to PPPoE, if necessary. Enter the user name your ISP gave you. Enter the password.
Watch all the lights on your router go green.
Or, if the router is already set up, since you used it with your Dell laptop previously:
Take Ethernet cable, plug one end into the router's jack marked LAN, plug other end into your computer's Ethernet jack. Done.
The second from the left is your Ethernet jack:

Bell Sympatico server name for CalDAV

Does anyone know the server name to connect my Bell Sympatico calender to iOS?

Setting up Sympatico in your iPhone:
Incoming Mail Server:
Host - pophm.sympatico.ca
Username - full email add
Password - password
Outgoing Mail server:
SMTP - smtp1sympatico.ca [please note there is No dot btwn smtp & sympatico]
Go to smtp settings and your:
Primary Server - smtp1sympatico.ca will be On.
Now select Primary server:
Host smtp1sympatico.ca
Username - not necessary
Password - not necessary
Use SSL - On
Authentication - password
Server Port - 25
Other SMTP Servers settings:
smtphm.sympatico.ca will be On
Rogers SMTP Server will be on [pls note they both have to be turned On, don't have to do
anything more]
Advanced settings:
Use SSl - On
Authentication - Password
Server Port 995
You will be able to Send and Receive mail from Sympatico But if you have other custom
folders under your main sympatico setup, they somehow do not show up on the iPhone. But the
important and most relieving part is that you will now be able to Send and Receive mail with
ease. Any questions, please post and any new discoveries, please share.

Sorry for asking the obvious but are you a Bell Sympatico customer? I think, but may be wrong, that this usage meter only works for Bell Sympatico customers. Nice to eliminate the obvious first before continuing with troubleshooting.

When creating a new window in safari, using command T, the marker have not activated the search field. It means you have to click there every time. Changed after upgrading to Mavericks. Anyone knows how to change this?

Yes, you can do something like that. What you would do is create a button for each image and then hide them. When I do this type of thing I place all of the buttons on a template page and then hide the template.
You can then use JavaScript to copy the icon from any of the hidden buttons to the main button that you've set up to display the image. For example, suppose you set up 10 buttons named b1, b2, b3, ...b10. The code to copy the icon from one of them to the button used to display the image (b0) would be something like this:
// Get the icon from the b3 button
var oIcon = getField("b3").buttonGetIcon();
// Get reference to the b0 button
var f = getField("b0");
// Set the icon of the b0 button to the icon retrieved from the hidden button
f.buttonSetIcon(oIcon);
// Show the b0 button
f.display = display.visible;
This code would go in the Mouse Up event of the smaller button.

How to get y axis value(in a numeric control) by providing x-axis value using wave graph

Hi,
I'm new here, Sorry if i have selected wrong Location.
I want to get Y-axis value (in a numeric Control) by providing X-axis Value using Wave graph.
i want to do calculations with the obtained value.
i have attached File and Snapshot.

Well, you are using the Dynamic Data Type, which I almost never use, but if you convert the data to a WaveForm (using From DDT on the Signal Manipulation Palette, which is a choice when you right-click on the DDT Wire), you should be able to do this. Do you know about how Waveforms are stored? They are a Cluster, with t0 being a TimeStamp for the start of the Waveform, dt being the time step, and Y being the samples. So if you want a point at 0.5 seconds and dt is 0.001, you would pull out the point at Index 499 (offset 0) from the Y array.

Sorry to hear you are having issues, but there are 2 ways you can print from that device.
The first one is to simply email photos or documents to your printers email address by attaching them to a new message.
The other option is to download the HP ePrint Home and Biz app from Google Play. The app is free and should allow you to print pictures and documents to the printer with ease. I have added a link below on how to get started with this app.

Ask Linksys. If you reset the extender it presumably lost the username and password it was supposed to service. I'd just supply the name and password and move on.
