Confused about XPostFacto and the 8GB Limit - Please help
Hi all,
I've been running XPostFacto 4.0 on my Apple G3 Desktop (Rev C, 640MB Ram, 533 Mhz G4 OWC CPU upgrade) for sometime and is running great.
But I have a question about the 8GB rule.
This computer only runs off of a Seritek SATA card. There is a 35 GB Raptor drive on it, the first 7.81 GB is the 10.3.9 drive, and rest is for applications and files.
I added a 160 GB Hitachi drive to the SATA card that I moved from my G4 MDD computer. It already has 3 partitions: 30 GB for 10.3.9, 10GB for OS9, and 115 GB for audio production files.
If I wanted to boot off the Hitachi drive, would I have to re-format and create a 8 GB partition?
As is, if I try to boot off the drive I just added, XPostFacto tries to synchronize the files, then it invariably crashes.
I tried reading the manual again, but I get confused about the Mac OS X Installer and the 8GB rule, and so on.
Thanks!
i wound up erasing the partition on the transferred drive and carboncopycloning the beige's OS X drive to it...and now the transferred drive is booting ok!
now, i'm thinking of copying the whole raptor drive over and re-partitioning the raptor drive (strangely, the raptor appears with about 9 partitions on Disk Utility, though the only two that i created are clickable...wonder if the OS sees this drive as something like scsi).
this is a little asides the point, but on my MDD, the 7200 hitachi seemed to test as "faster" than the 10000rpm raptor in most categories. would the 7200 drive infact be better for OS style-tasks?

Hello I have a customer Close iPhone 5S any cloud symbol purchased the device from one of my colleagues and the activation message please help me
<Personal Information Edited by Host>It's a bad idea to post your IMEI number and I've asked the Hosts to remove it.
If the previous owner of the phone has set the Activation Lock in iCloud, only he can unlock it either by giving you the ID and password, or by removing it from his list of devices - details here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515
Without his unlocking it for you, you cannot use the phone. -

- Try a reset.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then connect to your computer and try to restore.

BlackBerry Curve 8900 and the Exchange Server (((((PLEASE help me)))))
Dears, I am new to the BlackBerry world, and I just got my BB Curve 8900 last night, well I’m very familiar with other iPhone, Nokia& Windows Mobile.. I managed to push my gmail to my device, WOW it’s very nice, but trying to do so for my work mail!!! BAD LUCK They use Exchange Server, we do have web access but through SSL, so even so can’t push it to my device, some forums were talking about the desktop redirector, I install it on my PC (I can’t touch our server of course, even our IT will never listen to my request); having the latest Desktop Manager and the latest Desktop redirector, working with Outlook 2007& Vista OS.
I keep all of them running while trying everything, but always getting an Status: NO PIN in the Desktop Redirector window? I have the following Q’s please..
1- Is there is any S/W that I should install on our server? If so, it means it’s OVER for me and it’s BAD LUCK.
2- Why I can’t get my work email although of following the same procedures described in the installation guide?
Please advice, your input is really appreciated.
Regards,Thank you very much for your input, but: our company is using https://............
I mean we are getting OWA through secure server, and I tried the same installation process but also NO LUCK??
Kindly suggest another workaround or so? as I need to access my email remotely.. again I appreciate your input, meanwhile I'm encouraging others to H E L P...

The font for sign into my yahoo mail is so small that I am unable to make out my ID and password and when I do get into my mailbox, the fonts are far too big and the words overlap. Tried going into tools /options to make changes but not successful, please help.thanks
Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems, make sure that the window is not maximized:
*<b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages
If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause such issues.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

hello .. i am using mavericks OS and it is showing it needs updates about 800 meg. and every time i download that it dosent do anything and again it is beginig to download again and again that.. please help me. the update is 10.9.2
To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step. -
I seem to have lost carrier settings on my iPad1,I've tried a restore and update but get a message about the original sim card,which I still have but is inactive,really inconvenient as I can only use in wifi spots and off line mode,please help,sibear.
You might want to download something called an undelete utility. These can find files and recover them even after they appear to have been lost. There are some undelete utility programs that are free. Look at tucows.com
Also, it appears that you have POSSIBLY overwritten the actual files, which you moved manually, with I don't know what, which you moved in PSE's folder location view.
Next, in the future ... NEVER (that's: don't even think about it) move your photos in Windows. NEVER. NEVER. Not ever. Not once. This always (that's ALWAYS, as in 100% of the time) causes problems and usually makes things difficult to fix.
Lastly ... make regular backups! I must say this in the forums about seventy bazillion times a month. Make regular backups! Regular depends on how often you take photographs and edit them. Since my photographic activity usually happens on the weekends, I make backups every Sunday night. You may need a different schedule, depending on your activity level. MAKE REGULAR BACKUPS! -

I have updated my phone to 4.3.3 and I was told there would be more bells and whistles. I haven't found more texting sounds. Have I updated my phone wrong or just not completed it all the way? Please help me. Still trying to figure this iphone 3G out.
You have the iPhone 3GS, not the 3G. The last update to support the iPhone 3G is 4.2.1.
iOS 4.3.3 includes bug fixes etc. There is nothing really special about this update that wasn't introduced in iOS 4.3. iOS 5 is the one to wait for - it will be released in the Autumn/Fall and includes over '200' new features/improvements.
The additional text tines and ringtones were an iPhone 4-only feature. -
In the Itunes Wishlist there is no price button that you can push to buy the items. So I cant buy my whole wishlist without doing it all seperatly and I dont know the total price of all the items. Please help!
Both the button and the total cost appear to have been removed in the current version of iTunes - I don't have them either and other people have posted about it as well. You can try leaving feedback for Apple and maybe they'll be added back in a future update : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
