Finally found answer
I have been playing with my Apple TV for a week and finally got it to work. I reconfigured my WiFi network from a WEP Password to a WPA Personal password and a week of endless frustrastion was over. In the end it was simple and I had seen that in a few comments but changing passwords involves a lot of people reconfiguring their devices (about 10 devices in our case) so it's not surprising many people don't try it. If you don't have an Airport (I have a Netgear), you have to find the IP address to go in from your browser and change the settings. The Netgear website actually explains it well. I hope this help someone out there and let's them enjoy their Xmas music through their Apple TV.
I don't understand the logic of the RGB space affecting the display though. Logic would say that no matter what RGB colorspace is set, in a CMYK document, Adobe would adjust the space to match CMYK automatically so the panels display correctly. Interestingly enough, Colormatch RGB which is supposed to be very close in gamut to CMYK, also dulls the color display to a small degree. I now have a CMYK setting using sRGB and an RGB setting using Prophoto to avoid the issue
Hoping that this post helps others out with something that is an undocumented gotcha.

Finally Found Answer To My Color Mismatch Issues
For those that might come across this I thought I'd post my findings.
It turns out that I had my colorspace set to Prophoto RGB since I standardized on that for my images in Photoshop and had it set that way in Bridge's color settings. I didn't think an RGB setting would affect color panels (e.g. Color Guide) if I was using North American SWOP v2 profile for my CMYK documents but it does. When I changed the RGB profile setting to sRGB, the panel colors looked fine again in my CMYK document. If I create an RGB document, then Prophoto RGB works again as expected.
My best guess for this would be that since we use RGB monitors, Illustrator accesses the RGB profile for display and if it's wider than the document profile, Illustrator loses it's color cookies.I don't understand the logic of the RGB space affecting the display though.

Thought I'd finally found a good media phone with ...
Have been looking for a phone / media device for quite a while now that ...
1. Would sync with my PIM of choice - Lotus Organizer
2. Would allow me to keep my diary with me (on my phone)
Thought I'd finally found it in the guise of the N95 8Gb. Brilliant little phone BUT discovered a fly in
the ointment... the appointment entries are limited to only 160 chars !!!
Why. That's pathetic in this day & age. A phone that has 8Gb of storage & they limit the phone
memory with restrictions like this. Looked at a Blackberry & guess what - doesn't seem to be any
limitation on the size of a calendar entry - BUT it doesn't sync with Lotus Organize.
Tried a Windows Mobile device but I absolutely hate Pocket Outlook the worse designed PIM (for
displaying weekview & events) ever ! Needless to say MS Outlook is the same. Plus the fact I'm
not impressed with Windows Mobile at all - just not finger frendly.
Anyway I'm digressing. What I wanted to ask is... is there a Nokia phone out there that will ...
1. sync with Lotus Organizer
2. allow me to store long diary entries (min of 256 chars) but really these days that restriction
should have been lifted. 512 or 1024 chars would be acceptable.
3. will display the full text of my diary entry (and in the order I have entered them - not
alphabetisied as P.Outlook does) N95 did this - well mostly - it displays 4 lines at least
4. has a reasonable camera / flash (3 - 4 MP ok for me)
5. has a decent amout of storage for music / video (8Gb was good Also loved the ext. speakers
on the N95).
6. is 3G capable for web browsing
7. has GPS
Thanks for any help here.Hi StewM
I've managed to sort it now took about 5 try's very confusing web site, but eventually got there. Thanks -
Finally found a printer driver for Okidata C5400 under Lion
Okidata USA support told me there was no driver available at this time to use my C5400 with my Mac that is using Lion.
After diligent searching,I finally found, loaded, and have used a driver that seems to be working fine.
The driver was found at Okidata, Bulgaria at the following URL:

I had a problem with the Apple Sync Notifer.exe showing up every time I signed in. I finally found a location and
deleted it and it went into my recycle bin. I was going to clean out the recycle bin and it asked if I really wanted to
delete the Apple Sync Notifer. I am wondering if it is safe to clear it or did I make an error and should keep it??Windows 7 can't run on Powerbooks. The name of the computer is under the display on the frame. Are you running some software in Boot Camp, or another virtualization engine?

I finally found the answer! (Using calender and contacts)
I had my ipod for 9 months and the contacts etc. always baffled me. I read the help but as ignorant as i am i did not understand. (However i have qualifications in IT!) Anyway i thought i'd write a post to help those in a seemingly esay way to understand. For windows.
1. Connect Pod.
2. Open my computer and go to Pod drive.
3. There are 3 folders, contacts, calenders and notes - im sure you know.
4. Open Microsoft Outlook. Make a contact but when you save as: - save it as a Vcard (option below name in list)save it outside the 3 folders. Then drag it into the contact folder with mouse.
5. For calender save as icalender.
6. For Notes save as txt and create in Notepad.
I know i'm probably repeating things already said but i think it would have helped me. Maybe it'll be useful.Lou, THANK YOU!
Thanks For Letting "ME" know that I could Do My Contacts With Microsoft Outlook.. I never Knew..

Finally Found a Solution to the Missing Palettes/No Screen update problem!
Ever since CS3 came out, Photoshop and Illustrator in particular (the worst offenders) wouldn't run properl
y on my system unless I did a full reboot before running either. Photoshop would load, but all palettes would be empty. Illustrator would forget t
o update the client area of the screen. Neither application was useable in that state. I have complained about it before, to no avail.
Now I have found the fix: Increasing the User Handle and GDI handle limits in Windows.
Here's an article on how to do this:
Increasing User Handle and GDI Handle Limits
Have you ever been working with a good number of applications at once? Are you a naturally born multi tasker? Alright, answer me this - who has had Windows buckle under the weight of all of these applications and display error messages stating that the system is out of memory or out of resources, buttons and menus do not work correctly, or you get an error sound but no message on the screen? I’ve hit this numerous times, to the point that I’ve lost work because of it…
(By the way, Adobe, can you please implement that little feature that Microsoft Office has had for years known as “auto save”? I don’t know how many times I’ve managed to completely max out Windows designing a web site and have had Photoshop fall over dead and disappear off my screen, only to find out that when I open Photoshop up again that the entire thing saved jack-all, all of those layers and documents gone poof into the void of darkness… if Microsoft can do it, why can’t you?)
Sometimes this happens even when you have a lot of system memory (RAM) still available. For instance, open up Internet Explorer and hold Ctrl+N to open up as many Internet Explorer windows as you can before menus, icons, and menus start displaying incorrectly, disappear, buttons aren’t clickable, etc. Close a few out and check your Windows Task Manager in the “Performance” tab, I bet you will find that a lot of your Physical Memory is still available.
This publication applies to:
* Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional
* Microsoft Windows 2000 Server
* Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server
* Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
* Microsoft Windows XP Professional
* Microsoft Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
* Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition
* Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition
DISCLAIMER: mikedopp.com and mikedopp hold no responsibility or liability whatsoever should something go wrong, or if you incorrectly modify the Windows Registry. Please take extreme caution while following this publication and follow the steps correctly.
“Okie-dokie, if I have all of this memory still available, why is Windows saying I’m out of memory and out of system resources!?”
Simple. You have hit the “user handle” or “GDI handle” limit in Windows. This limit is there for two reasons:
* Leaky applications or faulty code & malware can’t easily crash the system by attempting to overflow the system with GDI handles, making everything un-usable until a reboot is performed.
* To prevent a user from opening up more applications than the system can handle.
If you have 1 gigabyte (or 1024MB) of RAM or higher, the default User Handle and GDI Handle limits can be pretty restrictive when running a large working set of applications that demand the most from your system and tax it heavily.
“Do you feel my pain?”
Yes, of course. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be writing this article that is more than likely a good 2 or 3 pages in length.
I’m a designer and coder, I use Adobe Photoshop with a lot of documents opened up - on top of that, I usually listen to music while working as it helps me work better, so Windows Media Player 10 is usually open on my machine. Also opened are Windows Messenger, Microsoft Office Outlook 2003, SmartFTP (one of the best FTP clients I’ve ever used, highly recommended), Microsoft Word, a few dozen Internet Explorer windows, some Mozilla Firefox windows with a few tabs opened in each one, and EditPlus 2 for coding.
That’s a pretty heavy working set of applications, and I demand the most out of my computer when it comes to multitasking (I have a Pentium 4 2.66GHz, with 1.5GB of RAM just for those who are wondering).
I too have nailed these handle limits - more than once. After much searching and pondering I have finally come up with a working solution around this issue (hurray!)
“Yeah yeah, stop rambling and cut to the chase!”
First and foremost, I must warn you that modifying these settings incorrectly can render your Windows installation near useless. Also, depending on your computer configuration and the amount of RAM in your system, you may wish to play around with the numbers until you find a setting that is perfect for your computer.
To back up everything, open the Registry Editor (click on Start, Run, and then type “regedit.exe” (without the quotes).
To backup a registry key:
* In the Registry Editor on the left hand side, you will see the navigation pane. Using your mouse or keyboard, navigate to the following subkeys:
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\SubSystems
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
* Right click on each of the subkeys above in the left hand pane and from the context menu that appears, choose the “Export” option. Save the exported registry data file where ever you wish, but make sure that it will be accessible should we need to restore the files.
“OK, I’ve backed everything up! Now what!?”
Don’t quit the Registry Editor just yet - we still need to make some modifications in order to increase the handle limits in Windows.
With the Registry Editor opened, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\SubSystems. You will notice a set of “REG_MULTI_SZ” and “REG_EXPAND_SZ” keys in the right hand pane. The one that we are interested in modifying is called “Windows”.
To modify the key, double click on it. It should look something like this:
%SystemRoot%\system32\csrss.exe ObjectDirectory=\Windows SharedSection=1024,3072,512 Windows=On SubSystemType=Windows ServerDll=basesrv,1 ServerDll=winsrv:UserServerDllInitialization,3 ServerDll=winsrv:ConServerDllInitialization,2 ProfileControl=Off MaxRequestThreads=16
The section of this string we are interested in modifting is “SharedSection”.
In the SharedSection part of the string you will notice 3 numbers. What we are interested in is the middle value, “3072?. Modify this value so that the middle number is “8192?.
It should look something like this after modifying the value:
%SystemRoot%\system32\csrss.exe ObjectDirectory=\Windows SharedSection=1024,8192,512 Windows=On SubSystemType=Windows ServerDll=basesrv,1 ServerDll=winsrv:UserServerDllInitialization,3 ServerDll=winsrv:ConServerDllInitialization,2 ProfileControl=Off MaxRequestThreads=16
Now that we’ve changed this, lets continue, shall we?
In the left hand pane of the Registry Editor, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows. In the right hand side, you will see two REG_DWORD values, named “GDIProcessHandleQuota” and “USERProcessHandleQuota”. We will need to modify both of these.
The first key we will want to modify is “GDIProcessHandleQuota”. This keys value can be set between 256 and 16,384 (maximum), and the default value is 10,000. I’d recommend using 15,000 as a value for this key, however if you are doing a lot of multitasking, shoot for the stars and go with 16,384.
This key can not be set past 16,384 as it is the maximum acceptable value.
Now, lets modify “USERProcessHandleQuota”. This keys value can be set between 200 and 18,000 (maximum), with a default value of 10,000. I’d recommend increasing this value to the same number used with “GDIProcessHandleQuota”, however as previously mentioned if you are working with a hefty application workload, shoot for the stars and go wth the maximum value of 18,000.
This key can not be set past 18,000 as it is the maximum acceptable value.
Do NOT attempt to increase these values past the maximum - Windows will become very unstable and may even stop working correctly. If Windows starts acting up after changing these values, lower them until the issues are resolved, or restore the backups of these keys’ values that we created before making modifications.
Now that you’ve changed these values, restart your computer and tax the system using the Internet Explorer trick mentioned previously - open Internet Explorer and hold down Ctrl+N on your keyboard to open up new Internet Explorer windows. Continue this until menus, buttons, and user interface elements stop working correctly. Also, open any applications you run day-to-day while you are performing this, so that you can get more of an idea if you have everything configured correctly.
You may also want to monitor your memory usage and handles information in Task Manager to see whether or not the above registry values need any more modifications.
I hope this helps with any multi-tasking issues you may have run into while running Microsoft Windows, now get back to work!You work like I do. It's very cool that you published this fix for XP people, but yow, what a lot of detailed things to check/set! Seems like it might just be simpler just to move up to Windows 7...

I Finally Found A Solution To Removing MobileMe Off MacBook
I had posted a question in trying to find some way to disable or remove MobileMe off of the MacBook because I kept getting that MobileMe pop up dialog box telling me to sign in, even though I originally signed up for the 60 day trial of .mac. The account settings from .mac carried over to MobileMe, but I never used the account and forgot about it until I started designing a test website design using iWeb. Every time I tried to publish or visit to test the site, MobileMe box kept popping up and I just wanted to disable it, but couldn't get rid of it. I could not sign in with my original @mac.com name and passwords were not working to deactivate or cancel the account.
My advice here is only for Mac users who are not using MobileMe or don't intend to sign up for the service in the future. If you are using it for your website, then please disregard the procedure.
First, you will need to download a free utility app, Find File. When you run the app, just open it and a dialog box will pop up and the alert will post as: Find items whose name contains: type MobileMe. You will then get a list with many files and their links which are mostly located in the System Library, but there are others and some are invisible unless you use Find File app. Keep trashing the files until you get a "0" list and you will also notice that the MobileMe icon has been removed for the System Preferences. You will also probably have to type in yur Admin password to remove the files.
After all the MobileMe files have been dumped, Repair Permissions, restart and test your various Mac apps and 3rd party software.
I can make no guarantee that my procedure will work in your particular system, so please do this at your own risk. I worried about kernel panics or startup issues, but so far things seem to be OK.
There is also a chance that using iWeb will still try to access MobileMe, so if that happens, we will have to investigate this issue further. I also did the same procedure to dump that annoying iGlasses plug-in 7 day trial that popped up every time I opened iChat and FireFox for over a year! ind File found the iGlasses files and dumped them and finally, hopefully, that plug-in is dead.
Please report back here if you found success in removing MobileMe, only of course if you are sure you don't need it.
SteveOne more thing I failed to mention. As you find the MobileMe files and their links, you may want to back those up or drop them in a master folder on the desktop and make a list of where in the System/Library they are located. I did this myself just in case I had to reinstall them.
Thanks

ITunes7.0.1 jerky playback conflict finally found -- whew!
I finally got it! The jerky playback in iTunes7 is caused by a conflict with the 3ivx D4 4.5.1 component found in the Library/Quicktime/ folder (if you installed it, like I did). Since this is the latest version, the only solution for now is to remove it from the folder and wait for an update.
Now, if only someone could tell me how to keep the album art in coverflow from reloading every single time I open a playlist (everytime I have to scroll slowly through the list to get the covers into a cache, but the cache is gone even if I just switch to another playlist and come back!) Oh well, nothing's perfect...Francis,
Can you do me a favour by going to the second link included in the one below, read the second part carefully and respond with the requested information, Speedfan, ProcExp, DXDIAG and the like. I find it strange that the 4.1 update would cause this.
Some suggestions -
I am a group exercise instructor and rely heavily on my playlists. My old phone is an iphone 4s and I just bought an Iphone 6. I also have a macbook where I keep my itunes account, but I create all my playlists on my phone. I need to transfer those playlists from my old iphone into itunes in my computer so that I can then add them to my new iphone 6. However, none of the playlists on my iphone appear when I connect to my macbook. I have read other threads where the suggestion was to attach the old phone to itunes, find the phone in itunes and click the little arrow to the left to show the playlists. Then right click on the playlist and export it, saving it to the desktop, to then import it into itunes. However, in my case, the playlists do not show up when the phone is connected to itunes. I have clicked on the little arrow and all I get is "music", "purchased", etc., but none of my playlists. I'm sure some years back I probably deleted something in my itunes library and now none of my playlists show. Please help me. I would hate to have to recreate all of my playlists. Thank you!
I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question. Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing. I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
My playlists "ARE" in my iphone 4s. They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer.
When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes. I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes: Music, Movies, TV shows, books. That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS" but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone. Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this. I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer -
Made big mistake of downloading Mavericks today.
Been struggling with all the FUBARd messes it caused, ALL DAY.
Google basic buttons don't work--can't log out or other basic functions.
Website use is impaired.
It took almost 3 hours to do a basic online order on one of them--at this rate, I'll be out of business soon, and it's seriously impairing Christmas preparations!
Google Voice/Video are screwed up, had to RE-download their voice/video plugin all over again--again.
Voice/video quality is REALLY poor.
Lag times in so many things are bad.
Thought this would download WITH the better writing/bookkeeping programs--NOT!
Mac Maps is piddle compaired with GoogleMaps.
The Email program on the desktop is REALLY hard to use, has few useful functions. It's MAYbe good if one only has ONE email; using it with severeal various email accounts is a serious liability in many ways--like filing, sorting, marking, etc.; no clear way to move email files to an external drive to save, to unload the HD.
HOW can Safari and Mavericks be fixed?
IF not, HOW can I REMOVE Mavericks and get back to Mountain Lion--which was not too great, but certainly more functional than Mavericks!
I NEED my web-based emails to work--NOW...NOT when Mac finally gets around to fixing things sometime later.
I NEED online ordering to work--NOW--not later when Mac finally gets around to fixing things.
PLEASE someone--any help out there? I couldn't even find but a rare hint that Safari 7.0 even exists--much less that anyone admits it's got problems, nor fixes for it.
What to do? Throw the whole unit out? Wipe and reboot? Dumb it back to OS 10? HOW? WHAT?
[freaking out here...]Zak Adelman, LexSchellings,
It's a shiney new computer. Came loaded with Mountain Lion.
Too busy learning to use the blessed thing, to download anything....except...
The only pluggin that had to be loaded, was Google Voice-Video pluggin, while Lion was still it's OS. [AND been using the Safari that came already in it.] Had to do that a couple times--nothing new there--that plug-in had to be re-loaded when using a PC, too--THAT happened even before Google slammed everyone into coerced use of it's Google+.
[I understood from others, that Firefox won't work in Mac units--or I woulda put that in it to see if that solved anything]
This unit seemed a bit sluggish from the git-go, out-of-the-box.
I figured that was probly the local DSL here---rural DSL is...um...our DSL's not something to brag about, but it's the best we can do...
The difference between speed of loading pages, etc. on the new Mac, was --not-- toooo terribly different--though yes, slower on Mac....and chalked it up to my inexperience with Mac.
Been trying to get things up and running for a bit over a month now.
NOT doing very well at it--just barely getting by; rapidly falling behind what needs done [work].
Google worked just --OK-- when OS was Lion, as did the Google voice/video--slower, and voice-video was kinda scratchy or glitchy, but worked enough to --get by--.
Loading Mavericks, ruined that.
VOIP calls via Google talk have bad echio, static, cut-outs; video calling was pixilated or not working; WAS cued to re-load it's Voice-Video plug-in....which seemed to help a bit, though not very well; it only helped the Voice-Video some, not all--figured that was probably Google issues, less than Mac's, since Google has been increasingly dysfunctional as they have twisted it to be a social media-dominant thing.
[[now seeking an email venue that does what Gmail was good at, including the Voice-video calling, that has no intention of turning itself inside out to be "social"]]
Can't sign out of Gmail or Google+, nor use buttons in upper right corner with the drop-down menu.
NO buttons in upper right corner cluster on Gmail work, except the name+ button to toggle over to Google+---which I don't need! [yeah--THAT's a Google problem!]
Can only switch to HTML version by catching that button as the account signs in--if one fails to be fast enough with their fingers, it goes to Google+; can't get to email unless type in mail.google.com.
Managed to catch that button today, and clicked to use HTML "permanently" until these issues get solved.
ALSO:
Have fairly new [about 1 year?] HP bluetooth printer-scanner.
BUT, after Mavericks loaded: it HAS the unit listed, HAS drivers for it, HP unit IS listed as default printer, everything --seems-- "go",
.....except Mac keeps posting it's out of ink, and/or, not hooked up, and/or not turned on--even when it is on.
It's SUPPOSED to be blue-toothing that printer/scanner.
It did it for Lion, before loading Mavericks, even though it was troublesome to get it to work, it at least HAD printed one document when Lion was the OS.
Thank you...Downloaded EtreCheck:
BTW: Trying to copy/paste data from that check list, to this post, was achaic:
had to use Edit, select all, then use edit again to get it pasted--the mouse buttons weren't allowed to copy-paste using right-click functions [is this a relic limited-function "thing" with Mac?, or is it because I wanted to keep using this new wirless, non-Mac mouse?].
Advice?

FIRST POST:
WOW, I've been distro hopping for awhile (Red Hat, Fedora, Mandrake, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, Ubuntu) Basically, I've tried A LOT! My favorite before now was Gentoo, but it takes just WAY too much time to compile....Even on my AMD64 System.
So, I wanted my life back and I decided to move on to Ubuntu. Nice distro, but still not quite ready for prime time. Enter ARCH!!!! Wow, everything worked perfect out of the box and no ridiculous compile times.. I'm not even concerned that it doesn't have a AMD64 build since there's too many small issues with AMD64 distros that it's not quite ready yet (no 64 bit Flash, Open Office, etc...)
Net, just wanted to say THANK YOU. I'm finally at piece with my distro and running nothing but the bleeding edge STABLE!

perhaps you might see something funny, if you're any good at speed reading.
Also, 'yes' is a really handy program when you're bored and you wanna see
some text scrolling on your screen.
add a sleep in there.
while true ; do fortune all ; sleep 10; done
I think the whole point was to have a screen saver... -
Finally found a solution to photos appearing correctly in Contacts!
I'm just posting this to hopefully help others who may be struggling to get photos to appear in the contacts section of their iPod. I've got a 5th gen iPod, and I had no problem importing contact information to it from Address Book, including the photos, up until updating to OS X v10.4.6 and/or updating to the latest iPod update (v 1.1.1). Then, for some reason, I was able to get all the information except the photos to transfer from Address Book to the iPod.
I tried several things, but what finally worked was making sure to add the photos in Address Book using the "Use Custom Image" command under the "Card" menu. I had been pasting photos into the picture area in Address Book from the clipboard, which looks fine there, but doesn't seem to want to transfer to the iPod. If I ONLY add photos to Address Book using the Use Custom Image command, all works well.
I hope that helps anyone looking for an answer to this question.I guess this question is answered (for me, anyway). I just wanted to post something helpful to someone else.
Maybe you are looking for
