Can anyone tell me if the majority of the wifi issues are due to 10.4.8?

i.e., have many tested reverting back to .6 or .5 to see if the issue is/was resident then? Is that a possible temporary fix to the issues noted all over this board?
In case anyone wonders, my issues are similar to most others...BOTH my wifes 2.16 Core Duo and my new 2.33 C2Duo are experiencing the same issues. While at school, she cannot see any of the numerous nearby networks. I JUST got her to switch to a mac, and now this. Her old HP laptop saw about 6 or more wifi's nearby before, and most importantly her schools wifi connection. But now that she is on the mac, nothing. SOMETIMES, and I do mean only rarely a few networks will surface, but then disappear again. I decided to take my 2.33 C2Duo down there and see if the situation was the same with me...it was/is. Every now and then I might see a network or two, but not the shcools.
This in addition to dropping off my own home wifi over and over again also. I will get a connection and surf away, and then I notice that the airport icon has lost connection. I click the icon and there is my network, avail as ever, so I select it and surf again...same issue with her laptop and my step-fathers 17 inch Core Duo. We all experience the same dropped airport connection. And I can tell you it has nothing to do with idle time or sleeping. I can be surfing along and sometimes if I pause for less than a minute, the connection is lost. Btw, I also just got my step-father to switch, and while in general he is VERY happy, this is a knock-out blow to the saying "It just works." Uhm, nope it doesn't.
I have tried nearly every "trick" and tech troubleshooting idea I have come across here on the boards...I used to be a Mac tech in CA for about 5 years, working for ABC and Disney, so I think I can count myself amongst the more knowledgable Mac users out there.
So, to sum up again, can anyone tell me if they are having these issues with a version previous to 10.4.8?
p.s. BTW, I just saw the release of some EFI updates for the Mac line-up...I will update my wifes machine and let you know if anything gets better, but my 2.33 says that this update is not for this machine/isn't needed...so this EFI update doesn't resolve anything for me.
Thanks...!
MacBook Pro • 2.33 • 120GB/5400RPM • 2GB Ram Mac OS X (10.4.8) Duo Mac Mini w/2GB Ram, 5g 60gb iPod...

I had issues in 10.4.7 as well as 10.4.8.
My problems occurred at the beginning of 10.4.8, then many users brought light to me using WEP, which was not working that great. I changed my connections to WPA2 and my problem has disappeared. If my problem didn't resolve the way it did, I would have mentioned it the next time I visited an apple store.
The bottom line is that assumptions, complaining, and self diagnostics don't get many people very far and bringing the problem to apple helps them know the incidence of this problem, and helps them develop a reliable solution.
Though some users have reported the "cold shoulder" when reporting Airport problems to apple... I hope you weren't one of them.

Go to Solution.

Hi and welcome.
Enter your telephone (landline) number into the Infinity avaliability checker... scroll down a little on this site.-
http://www.productsandservices.bt.com/consumerProducts/displayTopic.do?topicId=29017&s_cid=con_FURL_...
If you receive an available result you can either have a look at the Infinity options and order on line.-
http://www.productsandservices.bt.com/consumerProducts/displayTopic.do?topicId=25633
Or ring BT on 150 from a BT Landline (Contact us 0800 800 150 for non BT landlines).
I ordered by telephone and changed from BT Total Broadband to BT Infinity option 1 with the 2MB upload cap and 40GB Usage...
I added an uplift for Anytime UK landilne calls as I had that with my old BT broadband but the new Infinity only offered weekend.
(They now include evening).
There is the other Unlimited Infinity option to consider as well.... all info on that website above.
Example of Infinity available now picture.-

Can anyone tell me where to find/download the talking tom cat message notification for iPhone4?

Can anyone tell me where to find/download the talking tom cat message notification for iPhone4?

I can't find any sort of "Talking Tom Cat" that provides message notifications, and without jailbreaking I can't see how it would be possible. The only Talking Tom Cat app I can find it a self-contained novelty app. If that's what you're referring to, just search the iTunes Store for "talking tom cat" and if the app is available in your country, you should find it. Be aware that while the app is free, the "gold coins" for all the accessories are definitely not free.
The forum in which you first posted is, by the way, for questions about the Communities themselves. Usually you'll get the quickest and most accurate results in you post in the forum dedicated for the product or service about which you have a question.

Can anyone tell me what is wrong with the simple sql?

Hi,
I have a simple SQL (see attached). It returns records when it does not include the Order By sorting clause. However, if it includes the Order By clause, Oracle says no data found. Anyone can give me some ideas what could cause the problem?
Thanks in advance.
SELECT ih.item_key, e.episode_key, e.episode_date, wp.work_package_key, p.patient_name, c.codes_key
FROM work_package wp, episodes e, item_header ih, patients p, codes c, station_element se, station_data sd
WHERE wp.work_item_key = e.episode_key
and e.episode_key = ih.item_key
and ih.logical_parent_key = p.patient_key
and e.episode_type = c.code_value
and wp.asgn_station_key = se.item_key
and se.station_name like 'DICT FIX%'
and sd.station_key = wp.asgn_station_key
and (sd.facility = '0' or sd.facility = 1)
and wp.on_hold <> 'Y' and c.code_type = 'CEPT'
and c.setup_group = 1
ORDER BY e.episode_date, e.medrec_no;

Hmmm...can you post a SQL Plus session that demonstrates this?

Can anyone tell me where on my macBook Pro my photos are saved?

I can not seem to find my picture files anywhere on my computer. I want to upload them to a website other than the Mac site for printing purposes. I am running iPhoto 09 and Mac OS X 10.6.8.

They are stored in the iPhoto Library in your Pictures Folder.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Can anyone tell me how to get around the -1202 error on XP?

After I downloaded the 10.6.1.7 vrsion, I can no longer make purchases from the iTunes store. Have tried reverting to the previous version, entering my security code to "update my billing info", and uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. Decided I should stop acting craxy (doing the same thing over and over epecting a different result) and just go the MP3 route to get music.

The audio tutorial will drive anyone batty, so I'll put you out of your misery.
Go to Settings/Accessibility/VoiceOver - and toggle it OFF. Also, make sure "Speak Auto-Text" is not toggled on.

Can Anyone Tell me whats going on with the emulator??

Hello I am getting an error with the emulation. I feel it its pretty pointless having it if i can not use it live. Any one out there come acroos this issue and if so how do I fix it?
Cheers..... The emulation of samsungtest has completed successfully. Your app binary is located at c:/etc etc etcyet the emulator is not running on my desktop? Strange. I do get a pre load error and it tells me go to the bulldog. My desktop emulator on the taskbar is a blank file icon and before it loads i get a pre load error?
Would appreciate some feed back on this if possible.
Thanks in advance.

it would not be install of Adobe that would cause this, however a changed printer driver may. Has the printer driver changed? Do you see any difference on the rpeort if you set the option "No Printer? (File menu, select Page setup).
When you say the report is now 21 pages, do you mean it has more data? Or has the format changed such that it is 21 pages long. The latter would again point to printer driver...

HI, I would like to use GPS with I Pad for navigation when I am trekking. I will need to download maps in order to do this. Can anyone tell me which I Pad is the one to purchase? Thanks, Dave

HI,
I would like to use an I Pad for navigating when I am trekking in the UK and in Europe. I would also like to download local maps.
Does anyone know which I Pad will support GPS Navigation?
Thanks
Dave

Wi-Fi only iPads do not have the GPS chip and rely on inaccurate methods to determine location. So a cellular iPad is a must even if you do not set up a cellular data account.
Also downloaded maps take up space on the iPad. So I would suggest that you consider an iPad with storage greater that the base model.

I hope you are looking for the following code.
Try to learn the syntax, it will help you in writting code.

          int h;
          public int[][] table(int z, int h) {

                    for (int j = 0; j < h; j++) {
                         two[z][h] = (int) (z * h);
               return two;
     }

When I switch libraries I lose the majority of the material in my main library and can only restore it by repairing the database. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can resolve the problem? Thanks

When I switch libraries I "lose" the majority of the material in my main library (or at least I can't see it) and can only restore it by repairing the database. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can resolve the problem? Thanks

I seem to have found a way around it. Rather than switching libraries by going into files/switch libraries I used Aperture Preferences to change them. I've done it a couple of times and it appears to work OK.
That is an interesting finding. It suggests, that your "Preferences" file "com.apple.Aperture.plist" may have been corrupted and you fixed it this way. Can you now switch between libraries the usual way? If not, I'd try to remove the "preferences" file from the user library to the Desktop and relaunch Aperture.
The Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805

Can anyone tell me why a picture would change color when I try to download/upload it? It is the exact same picture- chosen the same way and when it goes to any other program it changes the color (I've tried canvas on demand and mpixpro. I've also tried

Can anyone tell me why this picture changes color when I try to download/upload it? It is the exact same picture I have taken from the same location. The image on the left is via preview and the image on the right is what is shows like when I try to download it. I have emailed it to myself and it shows fine on the computer and in CS4, but when I look at the download via my phone or on another computer it shows the wonky color on the right. I have checked the color space shows RGB/8 bit. Any ideas why or how to fix it? It isn't with any one specific session.... and I've tried it on both my desktop and my laptop- saved image to an external hard drive and to drop box. I've tried sending the image to canvas on demand, my email, mpxipro, POST editing- all the same result. Please HELP!! What am I doing wrong?

Most of the time you see something like that. The image in question has a color profile other then sRGB. Some image viewers/displayers are color managed and others are not. So the image do not look the same in all of the applications you use. So colors seem to change.
Try converting it to sRGB color and see if then looks the same all around. Also I think PC and Mac displays are set to different gamma something like 1.8 and 2.2
Though I'm colorblind I even see color variations.

Can anyone tell me if the majority of the wifi issues are due to 10.4.8?
