Google problems (only when tethering 3G, 2G works ...

Greetings,
I have been successfully 3G tethering (by USB cable) my Nokia 2730 Classic to my Linux laptop for ages.
Then yesterday I updated my Nokia 2730 firmware to v10.45.
Now, using 3G, it connects ok as before, and most pages load fine. I can download files ok using wget.
Mysteriously however, Google pages malfunction:
iGoogle doesn't load my Google Bookmarks gadget entries (the gadget frame and title are visible however)
When I try to open Gmail, the page is blank, the modem light monitor applet on my desktop flashes as if there's some chatting going on, but then the browser status bar shows 'Done' but the page remains blank.
If I do a Google search, the search results page shows ok, but when I click on one of the search results links, I am never presented with the destination page.
Even mysteriouslier, if I switch network mode from UMTS to GSM (Settings -> Phone -> Network Mode), the problems above go away and I can browse Google pages no problem.
My equipment
Nokia 2730 Classic
Tethering (via USB cable)
Mobile service provider: 2degrees New Zealand
SIM card STK Version: 3.5.0
Linux powerpc laptop running Debian Squeeze
Iceweasel 3.5.16 / Epiphany browser 2.30.6
Firewall: Shorewall
IPv4
Gnome-PPP
Modem initialisation string: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
What I've tried so far:
Replicated the problem by tethering to another Debian computer which also used to tether 3G fine using the same phone
Restore Phone Factory Settings (Restore all)
Removing the battery from my phone for 30 seconds
Played with Gnome-PPP settings (e.g. uncheck 'Check carrier line', uncheck 'check default route', check 'stupid mode'
Tried connecting using wvdial
Tried loading the Google pages in both Iceweasel and Epiphany browsers.
Reading up about posible modem string initialisation changes, although it was working ok with the default one in Gnome-PPP before the firmware update.
Other possible factors?
Laptop software/configuration/updates: As far as I can recall, I didn't install any software or updates or make any significant configuration changes for some time before updating the Nokia 2730 firmware.
Mobile service provider 2degrees problem? I have been able to connect ok to my Google pages using the same provider, 2degrees, using a friend's computer and account with a Huawei USB modem stick.
The Google Bookmarks gadget on my iGoogle page is a frame which renders in "Quirks mode" according to the info I get when right-clicking the frame and choosing frame info. Could this be relevant?
Is it possible that the new firmware is incompatible with my SIM card version (3.5.0)?
Thank you in advance for any assistance you are able to provide in how to figure this out.
If there's any further info that would be helpful in deciphering the problem I'll be happy to provide it.
Cheers,
Toby

I guess your 2730 is switching from 3G to 2G during connection. Set from dual mode to UMTS only. Because you're using TCP/IP ( not WAP), it shouldn't matter what kind of data you're down or uploading.

IE 10 blank new tab and missing favourites problem only when requiring a proxy for first page visit

We are having a very strange situation with one (only) of our 64bit 2008r2 remote desktop session host servers. The problem we are having is that when any new tab or window is opened it must first open a page that is in the
internet options -> connections ->LAN settings -> Advanced -> Exception. Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning with
Area. OR ELSE....
The entire contents of the favourites menu below "Organize favourites" is missing, though the favourites explorer bar, and tool bar display the links, but they cannot be opened in the current tab and will not create a new tab when you click open
in new tab. HOWEVER, this problem is instantly resolved if you manually type into the address bar and visit a site that is in the proxy exception list. Then that tab starts to function normally, the favourites menu is populated and works, and so
does the favourites explorer bar, and toolbar, and other websites can be visited.
This is extremely problematic. Looking at the proxy server logs, when the problem is happening no attempt is made at contacting the proxy server.
Ways we've encountered this problem
If the user has the option set that a new tab opens the 'new tab page' then any new tab experiences the problem.
If the browser is set to open the user's home page(s) then any of the home pages that are not in the exception list may or may not open successfully. But again any of them that opened a page that was not in the proxy exception list will experience
the problem
when a user tries to click on a website link from an email or document that is not in the proxy exception list, as this opens a new window or tab and it is just blank.
when a website not in the exception list tries to open a new window/tab
This problem is happening for all users on that RD session host server, including domain admins, except for THE domain/enterprise administrator. Our other 2008r2 64bit RD session host servers and windows 7 machines with the same version of IE
installed on it does not have this problem.
We have tried deleting all IE data, resetting IE, re-registering the ieproxy.dll with the regserv32 command and the problem continues.
Our proxy settings for each user is coming from the group policy setting of 'computer config -> policies -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Internet Explorer -> Make proxy settings per-machine = enabled'
and THE domain administrator choosing to enable the proxy server and disable automatic proxy detection.

Hi,
Since you have tried many methods like deleting all IE data, resetting IE, and it works well on other Windows 7 machines, the problem might be some clients didn’t respond to the group policy.
Try to update the group policy with this command at the clients ”gpupdate /force”.
And check whether the client is infected with virus, some virus might cause this issue too.

P5800 Problem [only front speakers & sub r working]

Hi, i'm portuguese so i hope i can explain my problem in order for u to help me. (sorry for my bad english btw..)
I bought a P5800 speakers system and installed them perfectly with the help of the manual, everything was double-checked and everything is installed fine.
So, i opened WMP10 and selected a mp3 file to listen.. but to my surprise only the front speakers and the sub were working. I thought it could be the cables that were switched, but no, everything is ok. I went to the sound options in the control panel and set the system to 5.1, but nothing happen. My soundcard is an Audigy SE.
What can i do to play music with all the speakers working?
Can someone please help me resolving my problem ? plz...
Thanks in advance.

I have an Audigy SE and when i try to enable EAX in Creative's software MediaSource Player, a message appears saying "this feature is not available because no supported audio device is detected". Why does this message appear?.... I know my soundcard totally supports EAX.
Any help? thanks.

MSI K8t NEO + Audigy Boot Problem only when power is unplugged on the PSU

I ran into a really weird problem today.
I switched the ps off by reaching back and pressing the button. I repress the button to power on the ps, then I click on the button in the fron of the case to power up the machine. System keeps rebooting itself every 1 sec. Bracket shows 4 red lights. In the manual, it says it means bad cpu. I remove the audigy and it boots fine. I install the audigy, 4 red lights.
So, This time instead of turning the puter off by using the button on ps. I used the button on the case by holding it down for 5 seconds. I reboot and puter boots normally.
So the problem is, if i turn the puter off by using the button on the PS and with audigy in the syste. Nothing on screen, and puter keeps rebooting itself every one second. Solution is to turn the puter off by using the button on the case.
Has anyone ran into this problem? I have never had this kind of problem. It is really weird. Any feedback is apreciated.
Oh and it is only with audigy. I tested this with original live, and also other PCI cards like nic, and another cheap sound card. Non of these cards showed this problem.

Cavemankr!
I never knew you could shut down the computer by holding down the start button for 5 seconds.... well I've never really had the need to...until I got this K8T Neo job. I wondered why it wouldn't turn off when I just pushed it. I've been using the PSU switch with these problems.
Yep! She booted right up. Audigy back in action. I also realized I had my PC hooked straight in the wall (while checking to see if my surge protector was working this weekend), so turning off the surge protector wasn't cutting power to the cheapo PSU.
So put me in your camp!
I'll just plug the PC straight into the UPS and keep power fed to the Enermax. I hope that was the cause of my keyboard/mouse cold boot problem also.
I'll assume the cheapo PSU will behave similarly. I don't really want to go through the swap again.
I wonder why that happens!

Canon MG6220 wierd zooming/cropping printing problem, only when printing with Windows XP?

The printer in question is a Canon Pixma MG6220, connected to a WindowsXP printer. I've printed this same document on a Brother laser printer, that is connected to the same computer, and it prints correctly. I've printed this same document on a Epson inkjet printer, and it prints correctly. I've printed this same document at Staples, on one of their big laser printers, and it prints correctly. So, this printing problem is only occurring with this Canon printer. One other thing that may help you with this, is that last night I moved this Canon printer to another computer, except this one had Windows 7 on it, and it printed flawlessly! So, it seems that it may have something to do with Windows XP printer driver.
I'm printing a one page document from Word 2002 which consists of about 10 pictures, no text. All the pictures on the page are the same height but a different width. When I print the document, some of the pictures print correctly and some of them do not.
Essentially, what is happening is that some pictures are zoomed in about 50%, yet still print in the same area that is set in the document. So, the image looks like it has been rudely cropped.
The oddest thing is that this only happens to some of the pictures. There is nothing special about these pictures. The pictures that print correctly are from the same source as the ones that don't print correctly. I’ve done other Word documents like this, with the same format but different pictures, and they printed wrong too, some pictures correct and some zoomed/cropped.
Here is a summary of the pictures from the files I attached, and which ones printed correctly, and which did not: The first one is a screen capture of the Word document, and the other is a scan of the printed document.
Row 1
    Pic 1 – error (zoomed/cropped), Pic 2 – error, Pic 3 – correct, Pic 4 – error
Row 2
    Pic 1 – correct, Pic 2 – correct, Pic 3 – correct
Row 3
    Pic 1 – error, Pic 2 – error, Pic 3 – correct, Pic 4 – error
Row 4
    Pic 1 – error, Pic 2 – error, Pic 3 – correct
One observation of the incorrectly printed pictures, is that the upper left corners appear unaffected. It is the lower right corners that get the weird zooming/cropping effect.

Urgently restore a backup of the registry.
Urgently do not use the word 'urgently' in a forum of volunteers.
Also it can not be urgent, as Forms 4.5 dates from the Flintstone age, and probably isn't even certified on XP.
However, the error message is very clear: Apparently Forms 4.5 uses the registry to store printer info: you need to get that entry back. That kind of info is usually documented. Documentation is likely still online.

Selection-screen problem only when in SE80

Hi Folks,
I am getting the following information message when the the element SCREENS is double clicked in the SE80's container.
Element %_R1_%_APP_%-TEXT touches or overlaps
other element
The program is running fine without any error.I want to know why such an info message is getting popped up and how to avoid that.
Thanks,
K.Kiran.

Hi,
Open the Selection scree in SE51, double click on 1000 screen in SE80 and then click on the layout button to open the screen.
Then there check out the screen element for which you are getting the error.
Then adjust its size and check if this error is still coming.
According to me this Screen element corresponds to SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT statement in the program, you might have given the length of this text there try and reduce the length there and see if this error still remains.
Generally we should not modify the Selection-Screen's in SE51 as they will always get regenerated when ever you activate the program and your changes will be over written.
So try to play around with SELECTION-SCREEN statements only in the program, what you can get from SE51 is what this SCREEN ELEMENT corresponds to in the program.
Regards,
Sesh

Help!! Sync Problem Only When Trying to Update Software on My 755p

I am trying to update the software on my 755p. I am syncing with a usb. The sync goes fine when I do a hotsync, but when I try to run the updater for the palm software, it keeps telling me that the "Device Connection Failed." It tells me to connect the cable, but it is connected and I know it works, cuz I just hotsynced! very frustrating. An hour on the phone with Verizon did not help. I reinstalled the latest Palm Desktop, still no help. Help??!!

Update!
I decided to set up a new user to see if the problem persisted.
It didn't - the mail posted without what appears to be something connected with the keyboard layout!
Still, there *must* be a reason for the error I've mentioned.
Someone will no doubt come up with the answer!

Tecra A5: touchpad issues only when AC adaptor connected

Hi,
I have a very strange pb with my tecra a5: when I plug the power supply, my touchpad behaves strangely (latency), as soon as I unplug the power touchpad is ok.
I have tried many things (including total reinstall + changing the touchpad), the pb is still there.
Any idea or similar experience?

Incredible, it solved my issue. In fact I had another AC adaptor (same model, same version), with this one the problem is no more there.
By parsing the forum I saw someone had the problem only when using his computer at home equiped with CPL, which is also my case ...
I wouldn't be surprised it's a matter of filter in the AC adaptor which are more or less sensitive to voltage spikes involved by CPL plugs.
Anyway thx for your help!

I am using a work laptop and have the same problem. When I try to change the "configure proxy", they only available option is "use this proxy server for all protocols". Could it be that my system administrator blocked me from changing it since they don't want us to use Firefox.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

Just moved my email from Entourage to Mail. Having real problems with getting my signatures to work properly despite sending email as Rich Text.
When adding in a small company logo to the signature, PC's / windows computers only receive signature and logo as attachments.
I've tried all possible fixes I can find including getting a PC user to format the logo but no joy. Has anyone experienced this and any ideas on a fix gratefully received.

Send it as html so the signature is an image source URL

I am using a Macbook Air mid 2012 and an apple application "Mail". With only one email account (Yahoo), everything works perfectly. But the problem started when I added GMAIL account. Now it keeps on asking for my password for gmail and keychain.

With only Yahoo account in my Macbook Air "Mail", everything works perfectly. Problem started when I added my Gmail account. It keeps on asking my account and keychain passwords. And all my accounts always works offline.

It sounds like you may need to go into Mail>Preferences>Accounts and Complete setting up you Gmail account. It may not be finished being setup. For instance, note the line below to be selected from the drop down list in "Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP", then "Edit SMTP Server List":
Hope this helps

My keypad keeps disappearing when using google -- but only in the horizontal position. In vertical, it works fine. I have powered off and on, checked that Safari Instant is on, and cleared Safari cache. Any help will be appreciated.

My keypad keeps disappearing when using google -- but only in the horizontal position. Vertically, it works fine. I have powered off and then back on. I have checked that Safari instant is on, and I have cleared Safari cache. Nothing has worked so far.

Okay -- it fixed itself. Without any intervention, after all else had failed, and I was willing to live evermore with vertical searches. If only everything else in my house mysteriously recovered from the broken state.
Have no idea what was/is going on with the disappearing keypad.

Hi. I use Adobe Acrobat XI pro to make a PDF ebook embedded with audio. It works really well on my computer-I can read the book and hear the auto play mp3. The problem is, when I send it to my customers, they have difficulty hearing the audio. A few of them say they have Flash player on their PC and somehow they still can't hear, some say their Google Chrome browser tells them they've already got one flash player while they try to download one. For me, I had to download two versions of Flash player to be able to access to the audio. I don't know what the problem is, is it because it's the latest version of Adobe Acrobat XI pro that people with older version of Adobe reader or flash player can't open it properly? Or is it something else? How can I make sure every customer with different system can access to my books? Hope to hear from you ASAP! Thank you very much.

And how are the customers accessing the PDFs?
What devices are they using?
What program or apps with versions are they using?
I this age of other then PDF eBooks formats and reader program and apss for computers and mobile devices for these formats I would look at creating the books in one or more of the eBook formats.
Google Chrome and FireFox both have their own version of a PDF reader plug-in and they are well known to be less capable than Adobe Reader. It is possible to configure these products to use Adobe Reader.
