Had to read this headline twice.
I fail to understand how this happens, how filthy are these peoples grills?????
Supposedly they brush the grill off, a bristle sticks to the grill, meat is placed on the grill, and the bristle lodges in the meat..........
Ummm.
that has to be some solid buildup for the bristle to first STICK to the grill and then to be held in place as meat is toss on top.
CLEAN THE DAMN THING, I mean really get in there and brush! another reason I think per brushing is best; my dad has always brushed the grates after, but I do it before. The grease protects teh grates and it jsut burns off the next time you preheat.
Preheat
Brush
Don't be an idiot about it
Don't nearly die from stupidity.........
*Bevies laugh* Swallowing....
The title on the right made me giggle.

'we had difficulty reading this feed. host parameter is null' I am getting no where here, help!?
I've had an RSS feed created for an online video podcast but keep getting the message: 'we had difficulty reading this feed. host parameter is null' i've looked at the forums but none of them make any sense. My IT team say the RSS feed is valid and it should work and that is more like down to an itunes error, any help?
This will be our first podcast so do not currently have a page. Below is the feed.
Thank you Roger.

"We had difficulty reading this feed. null" Atom feeds no longer work?
Hi - our Audioboo feeds used to work fine when submitting as a podcast (eg http://audioboo.fm/users/4705/boos.atom). It seems like they stopped working recently - maybe in the past couple of days - and just report "We had difficulty reading this feed. null" when you try to submit them.
I'm beginning to suspect that the use of atom rather than rss is the cause. Can anyone confirm?
-JonathanThis feed can be subscribed to manually in iTunes (from the 'Advanced' menu) - actually I'm rather surprised it works because it isn't a valid podcast feed (though it is a valid Atom feed).
It has the iTunes 'declaration' and some itunes tags, although the former is contained in a 'feed' tag whereas it should be a 'rss' tag: there is no 'channel' tag enclosing the podcast data, no 'item' tags enclosing each episode, and no 'enclosure' tags within each episode containing the media URL. I'm not surprised you can't submit it as a podcast, and as I say it's a but surprising that the iTunes application recognizes it.
In order to get it accepted in the iTunes Store you need to create a feed in the correct format: this page contains a sample basic feed so you can see how it should look:
http://www.wilmut.org.uk/pc
If the feed contains the valid iTunes format it can also contain atom tags, which iTunes will ignore. -
Error when submitting podcast: We had difficulty reading this feed. host parameter is null
I'm attempting to submit a podcast through iTunes and keep getting this error. I've tried on two computers, one being a Mac and one PC. My RSS feed is here: http://www.whitewolfdental.com/wp-content/media/rss.xml
If I go to File -> Subscribe to Podcast... in iTunes and type in the feed URL it allows me to subscribe just fine and the items do play. The feed also validated according to feedvalidator.org.
Any ideas?iTunes really likes to see the GUID tag.
If you manaually can edit your feed go into each epsiode and add in a unique GUID tag.
http://www.podcast411.com/howto_1.html
Here is a tutorial that goes over editing your RSS feed.
Good luck.

We had difficulty reading this feed. host parameter is null
Hi,
I'm fairly new to creating podcasts and have come across the 'host parameter is null' error when submitting my podcast to itunes.
The RSS feed validates )bar the <itunes:link> tag to which I understand Feed Validator doesn't yet support due to previous errors. (correct me if i'm wrong)
I've tried linking copying the source code and uploading a XML file to the server and linking to that, but still get the same error in itunes.
Any help is welcome

I suddenly can not open pdf files. I have had Adobe Reader Xl and just ran into this problem
I have had adobe reader xl for some time and suddenly can not open a pdf file. I received an email yesterday with a pdf attachment which I can not open. What could be my problem?
Hi Pat, My operating system is Windows 7, Home Premium Service Pack 1. My email client (email Provider is Cox Communications - Cox.net).
Can not in my post means I tried to open a pdf attachment to a email. I received nothing happens. I do not get a blank screen or any messages. Nothing Nothing happens at all. I can click several times and get no response.
I did discover that by clicking on the Adobe Icon on my deskt topi get an Adobe box containing "Do you want to allow changes to your computer. I click Yes and get to my computer where I can find the above mentoned attachment which I think I had previously saved. I then get the attachment whick I can print. This may be printing from my hard drive - I am not sure. I think I could go through this procedure every time I want to open a atachment but it seems a long way around.
Any help you can give me would be appreciated. I have thought about removing Adobe and reinstalling. Maybe there is a corruption to my Adobe file.

Hi, i downloaded ios 5 to ipad 2 and when I rebooted, all 2000 emails that i had recieved, read and trashed are downloading again. They are coming through 25 at a time eaach time I check mail. How do I stop this happening?
Use your PC to sign-on to your mail service using the browser interface they provide. Delete all the e-mails you don't want on the server. That will prevent the iPad from downloading them.

Trouble shooting guide! Read this first!!!! rev 13-1-2004
(Revision 13-1-2004)
Hi there,
Follow everything on the list, even if it doesn't look like it would solve your problem, most problems are created somewhere else!
To give some examples:
CPU won't run FSB133....mostly powersupply or CPU-cooler.
Videocard won't load drivers....mostly powersupply.
Sound won't work.....mostly metal-standoff's.
Windows won't install, file read error.....mostly CPU-cooler, Bad-ram or powersupply.
That is why you need to go over the entire list and check all!
Before you start doing anything, remove the power and make sure that you have touched the metal case of your system. If you don't you could damage your system due to static discharge!
Thanks to Arioch and Dragon60 for comments on this.
There are several reasons why this happens.....to name the most commen:
CPU speeds
You have a Duron, that CPU is 100FSB!
You have a Athlon(XP) and it's showing the wrong speed, set the CPU-FSB to 133....
Or 166 when it's a FSB333 CPU....or 200 when it's a FSB400 CPU....
Some boards have a jumper to set it, other do it in the BIOS.
Check your manual for this.
Speeds must be:
Duron upto 1300MHz = 100MHz (=200DDR)
Duron from 1400MHz = 133MHz (=266DDR)
Athlon B type = 100MHz (=200DDR)
Athlon C type = 133MHz (=266DDR)
Athlon XP - C type = 133MHz (=266DDR)
Athlon XP - D type = 166MHz (=333DDR)
Athlon XP - E type = 200MHz (=400DDR)
Use this link to see if your motherboard actually supports your CPU.
The TBred CPU's (0.13) start from XP-1700 and up, but not all boards support this CPU and they either show on the D-LED all red or don't start at all!!
The K7T266pro2 is an exception, it can be made to support the TBred CPU's, on this link you find all the info on how to make it work.
Many reports have told us that FSB333 CPU's work on KT3-Ultra boards work just fine, but it's unsupported by MSI, we don't know why....
As for mulipliers with AMD CPU's, just set them Automatic, as they are hardcoded on the CPU themselves and will allway's be correctly, even if if you think the BIOS doesn't know it.
How to recognise the CPU:
If you look on the dice, there are letters after the speed.
The last letter will tell you the FSB of the CPU.
B=100MHz (=200DDR)
C=133MHz (=266DDR)
D=166MHz (=333DDR)
E=200MHz (=400DDR)
To recognise a CPU quickly, checkout this link.
Thanks Mellops.
The MHz setting must match your setting in the BIOS for FSB value, as it translates to the correct FSB setting for the CPU.
The best way to identify a processor is by using the OPN (Ordering Part Number) which can be found on the processor (E.g. AXDA 2700 D K V 3 D).
Detailed information on the code can be found in this AMD document. (Thanks Hans)
CPU Cooling
CPU cooler not made for your CPU, check if it can handle your CPU....
CPU cooler mounted wrong!, take it off and check it as it will fit 2 way's, but only 1 is the right one, examine very carefull!
The cooler has a lower part that needs to go over the bump (higher part) of the socket, if it's not over there it won't cool the entire dice and WILL give you trouble.
Also check if it's making contact with the entire dice of the CPU...
Make sure you regrease it again, the same grease/paste can't be used twice!
YOU MAY NEVER USE A THERMALPAD OR GREASE AGAIN! APPLY NEW EVERY TIME YOU TAKE THE COOLER OFF!!
top 2 show how not to do it
Used too much silver-grease! It will shorten the bridges on the CPU, clean it and use white-paste.
(Silver-paste is not recommended in any case!)
The latest AMD XP CPU's (XP-2200 and above) require a copperbased heatsink because the dice is smaller and generates far more heat per square cm then the "old" CPU's do.
How to check the cooler before taking it off.
There is a simple way to check the cooler without taking it off.
You do this by first checking your idle temp with PCAlert, it should be below 50-55C.
Then you download a client from www.distributed.net, let this client run for about 10 minutes while monitoring the temps, after about 1 minute or so it should stabilize and your temp should have gone up about 10-15C (max).
If it still goes up or the system crashes, there is a big chance you mounted the CPU-cooler wrong.
When you can't run this check, try with FSB100, if the system does run the check then, it could be well that the cooler is mounted wrong or your powersupply doesn't have enough power.
***** YOU CAN'T CHECK THE CPU COOLER ON TEMPS OR FAN RUNNING, IT MUST BE TAKEN OFF THE CPU!!! *****
Cleaning the CPU and Cooler - thanks to Dragon60 for his addition.
An additional comments about this is what you clean the CPU with in this situation. The best thing to use is isopropyl alcohol. If this is not available then metholated spirits would do.
Make sure you allow the CPU to dry properly before you put it back in. This also means DO NOT try and clean it whilst it is still in the socket as some of the cleaning fluid, grease and dirt may get underneath and short some pins.
Last but not least. DO NOT use acetone to clean anything inside your PC. (or outside for that matter) It MAY not do any damage BUT it may disolve some parts.
Thanks Dragon60.
If you don't understand what we are talking about on this cooler matter, then read this link: AMD CPU & Cooling guide
Powersupplies
Powersupply too little, most commen cheap 300W CPU's can't handle an XP-1700 or above, try a better one to be sure.
Make sure your powersupply has about 185W combined on the 3.3+5V and that the 3.3V has 20A or above.
That should be enough for most systems.
On the latest boards the 12V has become very important too, expecialy with TBred CPU's.
Make sure yours can give 18A or more on the 12V line too.
I have found that a lot of cheap 350W will fail with modern boards and TBred CPU's.
Allway's make sure you have a decend PSU, it never fails to spent a bit more on that part!
Borrow a bigger one from a friend if you are not sure....
More info about powersupplies: Click here.
And the second you must read: Click here.
Powersupplies with these type of numbers on them or higher should be fine:
3.3V - 28A or better
5V - 30A or better
12V - 18A or better
Watch out!! Cheap PSU's like Q-Tec come nowhere near these figures!!
Do NOT trust the 300W or 400W rating on them!!!
Q-Tec is about the worst of them all!!
Metalclips
Stand-off's left between the board and the case, take the board out and check for too many of those metal-clips, they can shorten circuits and cause al sorts of problems (most of the time audio problems)
RAM
Ram problems, don't try to run with PC100 (SDram boards) when you have a 133FSB CPU, get PC133 ram of decend quality.
In any case, don't use cheap quality ram (Crucial seems decend, but give's a lot of problems, I consider these cheap quality too :P ), replace the ram with another brand to see if it fixes it....
DDR ram speeds:
Duron upto 1300/Athlon-B =100FSB=PC-1600=DDR200
Duron from 1400 =133FSB=PC-2100=DDR266
Athlon-C/XP upto 2600 =133FSB=PC-2100=DDR266
Athlon XP D-type and above =166FSB=PC-2700=DDR333
Athlon XP E-type and above =200FSB=PC-3200=DDR400
Higher DDR speeds are only a must if you try to overclock, they have no speed gain if run at the correct speed. You may use faster ram on a slower system, the speeds given are what is needed minimum.
Perform RAM test tools, ie http://www.memtest.org if you suspect RAM is faulty, such as BSOD or data corruption. [added by Maesus]
Try your system allway's with 1 stick of ram, adding more sticks can give all the trouble too.
Some sticks just won't work in pair and a lot fail when you put 3 or more in the system.
When you want to use 3 sticks, make very sure you use the MSI tested ones, they are your best chance that they work without problems.
If still nothing, try to seat the ram in another slot, sometimes they work better in another slot.
Thanks boost
Or rise the Ram voltage a little, be carefull doing this!
Sometimes this works when you have a lot of ram in there.
BIOS
BIOS settings not right, clear the CMos and start with the default settings, if it works, try setting ONLY the FSB to 133 if needed, nothing more.....
And go further from there......
Clearing CMos
When you clear the CMos, make sure that all power is cut from the system.
This is done by takeing the wall-plug out or use the switch on the powersupply to turn it off.
On most boards, as far as I know all MSI boards, you must set the JBat1 to position 2-3 (clear position) for about 10 seconds, then set it back to 1-2 (keep data position)
After this your CMos should be cleared and you can turn the system back on.
In some rare cases it's needed to take the battery out too for a minute or so.
It can happen that the system will prompt you to set the BIOS again, go into the BIOS and set everything you need, then save the settings.
Thanks fguevara.
Harddisks
Harddisk is giving problems, most of the time with WD drive's, they are jumpered somewhat strange compared to others:
No jumper = Stand-Alone no other drive attached to the cable.
Jumper master = if you have a slave drive attached
Jumper slave = when it's slave to another drive
Harddisk is doing weird things:
Make sure you have connected the blue connector to the board, and don't let the other end of the cable unused, make sure there is a device connected to it.
The middle connector can be left into the air without problems if not needed.
IBM harddisks seem to fail a lot, try Drive-Fitness-Test on it, see if it has problems.
Click here for DFT
Other brand drives can have problems too, make sure they are ok, as harddisk failure can cause all sorts of problems.
Allway's be sure your harddisk is in tip-top shape, if not, replace it and try another to verify.
For more information read this: Click here.
To know what harddisks your motherboard support, use this link.
To enable harddisk over 137GB in Win2000 edit this registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Atapi\Parameters]
"EnableBigLba"=dword:00000001
The KT4 raid boards only support 1 harddisk on IDE3, the rest must be SATA drive's!!
Harddisk/power led not functioning - thanks to Tweetyoost
If your HD led or power led not work try to switch(wrong + or - side) the connectors on the motherboard.
leds will work only when + or - is correct
Thanks Tweetyoost.
Floppy drive's
If your floppy drive doesn't work or the led stay's on all the time.
Make sure the floppy is set correctly in the BIOS, as the BIOS doesn't autodetect a floppy drive.
Check the cable, make sure the twist in the cable is at the floppy-drive side.
If the light stay's on, flip the connector at the floppy-drive arround.
Sometimes it happens that even after all this, they still don't work, try with another drive from another brand.
Not able to enter the BIOS or lockup
When you try to enter the BIOS it won't go in there or
lockup, but your system is running fine.
This symtom can happen when your CPU-Cooler is giving spikes on the coolerwire.
Try with another brand of cooler to test if it solves it.
Keyboard and optical mouse lights stay on after power off[/U]
Some motherboards have a jumper called JKBV1, this jumper is located (mostly) near the keyboard connector, put it in the other position.
If your board doesn't have the jumper, try to find the following BIOS settings and turn them off:
resume on KBC
resume on PS/2
resume by alarm
USB ports not working[/U]
Check in the BIOS if the ports are enabled.
USB2.0 ports are supported in Win2000+SP3 and XP+SP1, just let the OS reinstall the ports and they should work.
Thanks Stygge
Replacing parts and the system won't boot after
It's never a good idea to replace stuff like CPU and ram without taking the board out of the case.
But if you still like to do so, please support the board, because if you don't you might bent the board a little and cause other components to make bad contact.
Allways support the board when you replace stuff, no matter what!
Also make sure your system can take the replacement, it could happen for example that your powersupply can't handle your changed videocard from GF2MX to GF4Ti4600.
Test all the parts in another system
Make sure that the new part is in good working order in the first place (in particular: videocard, CPU, memory): try it in another system, or have it demonstrated by the one you bought it from if possible.
Testing might also give you a clue on what is actually wrong in your own system.
Thanks HansH.
Checking the powersupply
Don't do this if you don't know what you are doing!
Disconnect the powersupply.
Orientate the 20pin Powerconnector with the clip up.
Locate pin 4 and pin 8 top row, mostly green and black wire.
Use a wire to short them (or better a 12V test lamp).
Now connect the power and the fan inside the powersupply should start spinning.
If it doesn't your powersupply maybe dead.
Thanks HansH.
KT4 users
Please read the Un-Official KT4 guide if you have CRC errors or strange crashes.
These can be BIOS problems.
In any case !!!Only flash if the system is stable!!!
Set default-settings and FSB100 to make it stable first!!!
Motherboards making a Siren-sound
If your board is making the sound of a firetruck, BEEP-BOOP-BEEP-BOOP...
Check the folowing:
1. CPU too hot
2. chassis intrusion was enabled in the BIOS
3. PSU is below min/max allowable value
Stutter in audio
Remove your antivirus software.
We have heard a few cases where the stuttering was created by badly behaving antivirus software.
Disable cpu halt command if it's in the BIOS (Thanks Pascal16)
Windows
Windows2000/XP won't run stable, try to disable APIC and install again....
Not all drivers/devices like the APIC.
Windows2000/XP won't install USB2.0, install the latest servicepak (SP3 Win2000 or SP1 WinXP).
Let Windows rediscover the USB ports, they should work now.
If you have driver or other problems and don't know what to do anymore but Windows does function without crashing, read this: Click here.

This thread is only for the experts to guide you into a solution :]Dude thank-you for your wonder detailed knowldge, I have descovered that lets say xp 1700 in a ultra 2 can only handle at the most 143fsb mult at 12.
Given the settings" irq's are a major",part of directing traffic and power? example:
Sound blaster Live , uses two irq's most common at"Auto" is, irq 10, or 5, and Sound blaster 16 emulation usually takes irq 5,. I have found that the sound card in slot3 works great , but to do this I had to change the Bio's and assign slot 3 irq 7 . and make sure printer port has share irq enabled
Problems that accure with bad traffic are like this. Start a dedicated server. minimize than start your game?":censored: no sound what could be wrong"? Shoot another problem Connection problem?. The computer nerd is getting trouble over the ordeal. ANSWER! IRQ can fix the problem, Study the irq and make changes as you go. "what would it be like with no stop signs,,,that is the same as a irq. with the same knowldge this topic brings IRQ need to be clearly understood.
I can honestly say my system is error free and running like a dream.
xp 2500 barton 333
creative sound 5.1gamers.
512 mb kingston ram 400 mhz
boadband either onboard.
MSI 5700 128 mb ddr
Setting are:
163 fsb
mult of 11
ddr 333
video memory clock down to 450mhz
3d clock to 390mhz
The delta is a smooth running board also I want to mention to the person with crackling sounds, change the irq like I did, that fix the problem and the power is totaly too good to be true. -
Help: Just finished shooting a wedding and Aperture crashes constantly during editing. All pic's in RAW and even after making sure I have the latest Aperture update, I have had to rebuild my library twice and "repair" does not seem to fix the issue. Help?
Well!
If you have ThunderBolt, I would go with such for an External Working Drive, spinning platter or SSD depending on your budget
This does not have to be huge just big enough to house your most current Jobs
Once the Current Job is put to rest I would move it to a larger multi bay hard drive unit, USB or FireWire nothing fancy, no RAID, set up as one single Disk
This would only be accessed when something is needed from a past Job so the connection does not have to be speedy
The Drobo would be relegated to Vaults and backups
You can set up a Vault on the Drobo to back up the External Working Library and then Reconnect it when you have moved the Library over to the other Enclosure
This has worked for me pretty smoothly for a long while, but I have found over the years that one can not assume all people work in the same manner! :-) -
TimeCapsule security information - READ THIS before copying data!!!!
I bought my TimeCapsule yesterday, spent all night (literally) copying data off some old usb/firewire drives and then was struck by the "Not everyone on my network should have access to all of this stuff!" moment.
I had been reading these posts - and realize that I was going to have to be the one to bite the bullet and experiment with security. I have it working - and it seems to work just fine. Here's what I did.
The timecapsule install program guides you through setting the device up. But ... what it does not do (BAD BAD DEVELOPERS!!!! I want to hit you with the stupid stick!!) is tell you about security. I assumed, like others that have posted here, that I would be able to set security permissions on different folders just like any other Mac drive. NOPE! Doesn't work. You have the options at the bottom of "get info" on the drive folder, but .. it doesn't do anything!!!
All is not lost though read on.
Relaunch the airport utility (Applications->Utilities->Airport Utility) select your TimeCapsule device, and this time select the "Manual Setup" button at the bottom of the window.
At the very top you will see a blue disk on the toolbar labeled "Disks". When you select that you will then have three things to choose from - Disks, FileSharing, and Accounts. Click FileSharing.
You will see a dropdown called "Secure Shared Disks". By default it will say "With disk password". Select "With accounts". You will get a very ominous message that says (paraphrasing here) that if you do this you will loose all existing data on the drive. You know what? It means it. You do. Gone. All gone. I copied data all night - and now I have to do it again. Did I mention how mad I am at the people at Apple and their extreme oversight about this? The "wizard" should have provided a LOT more information about security - or at least their documentation. But I digress.
Once you have picked "With accounts" and clicked "OK" on the scary message, select "Accounts". TimeCapsule will not automatically pick up on the accounts on your mac or anyone elses. You have to enter them here. But it's really no big deal, when users connect the first time they can save their info so they don't have to do it again. Anyway - put in all the accounts and passwords you think you might want - you can add more as needed later.
At this point the utility restarts TimeCapsule. Once it comes up connect to the drive (select it in finder and then "connect as"). You will be prompted for an account name and password - you know what to do here.
Now here is what you will find. Remember the disk folder that was visible to anyone and everyone when you first set TimeCapsule up? Well, it's still there. But empty (actually, I think the data is still on the drive but you can't see it and I have no idea how to get it back). It's now, more or less, a "public" folder for everyone to share (that's where my Itunes library will go) And there will be another folder - with your account name on it. Guess what? It's private just for you (actually for whoever is logged on with the respective account). No one else can even see it. I have been testing this with four different accounts and it works great! One account will be shared by two people (a collaboration area of the drive) while at the same each will have their own private area (virtual, not physical like a partition) on the drive.
So now I am going to start copying my data (again!!) to the appropriate account folders. Oh, there is NO admin who can see all of the accounts.
I really hope this helps someone. I was more than a little frustrated at 4AM this morning and hope I can prevent the same for someone else.
Have a great day!
XThe NAS units are Fantom Drives Mega disks. Here are some things you should know:
Pros:
Dual drive units. Can either be striped to give 1TB or RAID 1 at 500g. RAID 1 doesn't seem to slow them down.
Web interface - Obviously written by Chinese but understandable and functional.
Company support for questions has been ok. I wouldn't say great but probably better than Apple. Twice I was able to talk to a human about how to achieve something.
The iTunes server is virtually automatic. There is a public/music directory. Anything placed in there is automatically served. I decided to point my actual iTunes library to that location. Now when a song is added for any reason the server picks it up immediately.
Cons:
Power cords are bad. The unit is best left in a remote location where nothing can touch the power cord.
Some people have had failures of these units. I personally have not. They work fine and as advertised.
Because they use a different file system it is possible to have filenames on the Mac that won't work on the NAS. I've run into this. The result is the file simply will not copy over. Change the name and it works. Avoiding key unix chars in the filename helps and keeping it reasonably short.
My experience:
I have pounded these NAS devices with multiple copies from multiple machines and they just seem to work. Once connected they just continue to remain connected.
Like I said above I point my iTunes directory there. On reboot I have to reconnect to that drive before I start iTunes as I've been too lazy to setup any kind of auto-reconnect. Honestly I don't reboot that much so I haven't worried about it. But once connected iTunes just works perfect.
The accounts seem reasonable secure. I setup an account for a buddy and put some files in it and gave him FTP access. He was unable to get anywhere else but his directory. He could see the other directory names but could not move to them. Same result when he was here locally. -
Just a heads up for my fellow Mac users.
"How do I defrag my mac?"
"You don't need to, ever. It does it automatically."
"But it's running really slowly..."
"Repair permissions or something. Defragging is not necessary on a mac."
Techtool pro is now defragmenting my mac. Looks like the job's going to take about 4 hours. I thought I'd give everyone the truth about this while waiting (on a different computer obviously)
The truth is, Apple's defragmenting system ***** BALLS. It has two massive, massive flaws which I feel people urgently need to be made aware of.
#1: It only defragments files up to 20mb. If you're a movie producer, a songwriter, a photographer, or anything which involves working with many massive files, the built in defragmenting program WILL NOT HELP YOU IN THE SLIGHTEST.
#2: It only defragments FILES. Free space is ignored, which eventually causes absolutely hrrendous problems.
Let me give you an analogy here. Imagine your mac's hard drive is a bookcase with lots of books on it.
File fragmentation is when it can't find a gap in the bookcase big enough for the entire book, so it breaks the book into pieces and srotes them in different gaps.
Space fragmentation is when there are gaps all over the bookcase, instead of all the books being pushed to one side so there's a long gap elsewhere.
Apple's built in defragmenting program will only fix the first problem - and even then, it will ignore any book bigger than 20 pages long, if you have bigger books which are broken up, you're screwed.
Why is space fragmentation a problem? It's a problem because it directly LEADS TO file fragmentation. If there is a large block of free space all in one part of the disk, then an entire file can be written to it. However, if there is no single free block big enough for the file, it HAS NO CHOICE but to fragment it.
So basically you might have 5 GB free and want to save a 2GB imovie project. That's cool. But what you may not realize is, the biggest single area of free space is only say 600MB. Others are around 300 and 400. Therefore the file MUST be fragmented into all these different areas, which wouldn't be necessary if all the free space was in one area of the disk.
But apple's built in tools don't do anything about this, at least not in Tiger. PErhaps this has been fixed in later installations but I'm almost certain the same issues exist in leopard.
Your only option is to buy a defragmenting program. I know this ***** but believe me, this IS something you NEED to do if your activity on your laptop involves disk space - intensive projects. I'm using TechTool Pro which has been recommended to me as hands down the best. It has a number of other functions as well, right now I'm only using the defragmenting tools but it has others for repairing damages disk sectors and other mantainence tools. There are other programs such as iDefrag out there as well.
Why am I telling you this? I'm telling you because I experienced mind numbing frustration trying to get answers from the Apple community. Google it or ask the question yourself and you will most likely be whacked in the face with the intro to my post here - "You don't need to, it's not necessary, macs do it themselves, blah blah blah"
Even worse, Apple's own webpage on the subject is nothing short of a disaster. It basically says "You PROBABLY don't need to defragment, unless you work with large files." That's it. You'd expect it to have an extra section saying "If you DO happen to work with large files, here's what you do" but no such section exists. It basically says "You don't need to defrag most of the time, and on the rare occasions when you do, well, too bad, you're screwed."
I urge everyone to heed this or they will be tearing their hair out at how slow their mac has become and the fact that no one will offer any meaningful advice other than the standard, generic, "Repair permissions" - the Mac equivelant of "have you tried turning it off and on again".
My disk is at 99% fragmented free space. NINTEY NINE PERCENT. In other words, although I have 25GB of free space, there was not a single contiguous block on the entire machine. I had almost 5,000 fragmented files as well, mostly imovies. Defragmenting got this down to about 300.
The defrag job is taking more than 4 hours and will probably go on to take a lot longer than that. This machine has been slowly grinding to a halt over the last 3 years and now I know why.
Please don't listen to anyone. Get yourself a defragmenting folder, and email Apple to tell them it's just not good enough to give their customers half assed answers and inadequate basic maintainence tools. Mac OS X must literally be the only operating system out there where something as basic as defragmenting is not only almost impossible to get answers on, but actually costs money to fix once you DO get answers.
As customers, we should not accept this any longer. I intend to spread the above message far and wide.
I LOVE Apple. I've always been "a mac" and I always will be. This in no way a mac bashing post or a windows endorsing one. I wouldn't switch back to windows if you gave me a million euro.
But sometimes even the best developers can royally f*ck up. This is one of them.
There is no readon people should be forced to put up with this crap. Absolutely no reason at all. I've had 3 months of crappy performance with no official explanation whatsoever.
Apple if you're reading this: I love your products. I'm a loyal customer. People are more forgiving than you think, speak up, admit you dropped the ball, and DO something about it in your next updates to Lion and whichever versions of Leopard you are still actively maintaining.
There's no shame in admitting when you're wrong. The shame is in hiding behind false promises and walls of silence.
--Loyal customer, but feeling rather betrayed by all this.The old rule of thumb was to keep 10-12 GB free. Any lower than that and you will start to have trouble. I was very close to that for a long time and never had any complaints. Now, Lion "encourages" 20% free space (on my newer 250 GB drive) so I try to keep it with more than 50 GB free.
Do you still have the original memory in that machine too? The metal plate you have to remove in the battery compartment also provides access to the RAM. Your machine will take 2 GB of RAM, possibly 3. You definitely want to max that out too.
Regardless, you definitely need a new hard drive. When Apple switched to PC components, they had to take a quality hit. These 2.5" notebook hard drives are not very reliable. I'm surprised your hard drive hasn't died by now. I usually get a new hard drive with every major OS upgrade. A $ 50 investment every couple of years is no big deal.
Unfortunately, you (and I) suffer from being an early adopter in 2006. Those 32-bit machines only accept 2 GB RAM (maybe 3) and are only 32-bit so they can't be upgraded to Lion. Because of this limitation, you won't see as dramatic an improvement as you would with a 2007 machine. If you run more than a couple of applications, your hard drive is always going to have to be doing some VM work. My 2006 machine has even lost its bluetooth. I gave it to my brother. My very similar 2007 Macbook is still running great.
So, you must get a new hard drive because your old one is likely on death's door. If you don't have at least 2 GB - get it. If you can't afford a new machine, you might want to consider an SSD. That might help mitigate your RAM limitations. You can spend from $ 100 to $ 350 and get a dramatic speed improvement. -
APPLE/DEVS Read this! Windows 7 CAN'T detect the iPhone 5s but iTunes CAN detect it! WEIRD, huh?!..
just a summary...
i have a iphone 3G which i have been using for a long time and now i got an iphone 5s.. troubleshooting this kind of stuff is not new to me from computers to smartphones.. the internet has a vast majority of information and all you need to do is type in the right "KEYWORD".. i'm that kind of guy that looks for the answer before i try to look on it on my own.. i'm a DIY kind of guy as long as there is an instruction on how to do it..
now, back to the topic..
so i was trying to copy some of my pictures on my iphone 5s to my PC for backup purposes and to see the quality of the images but the portable device doesn't show up unlike my iphone 3G which is f***ing WEIRD.. been tinkering with this over the past 5 days since i have nothing to do and testing the new features of this phone but to no avail.. searched all over the internet but still none..
so last night, i was really determined since i can't sleep and also connected my iphone 3G to my PC while the iphone 5s is connected.. so here is what shows up on my devices and printers and device manager..
i can totally see the pics on my iphone 3G but not on my iphone 5s.. totally amazing.. good job apple!
the picture under devices shows my iphone 3G and the other 2 on unspecified is my iphone 5s.. the iPhone under there is being used as my source of internet since this is tethered so i can have access and post this in here so that APPLE will know how f***ed up their SOFTWARE is is..
so i downloaded itunes a couple of times, and i can't remember how many already, i think 5 times or more and then uninstalled all apple softwares (itunes, apple application support, apple mobile device support and etc as long as there is apple in it) and then reinstalled itunes but still none..
so i went on device manager removed my iphone 3G and the only one that would show there is the Apple Mobile Device USB driver under USB controllers..
and then i uninstalled the driver, looked for the driver myself by just it doesn't show up in here where you are directed to look for the driver and oh im using 64 bit just so everyone knows and i already found out that my system is using the usbaapl64.sys file in windows>system32>drivers..
so last night i installed, reinstalled itunes and then suddenly my drive D: was gone and i received an error or a "!" on my drive and my drive is not being detected.
Error: windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damage. (code 19).
i unstalled the driver in device manager and then scan hardware changes, updated the driver automatically and manually and it is saying that i have the latest hardware but i can't use my DVD drive with the error on it..
so today i searched for that e-fing error and found this http://pcsupport.about.com/od/findbyerrormessage/a/code-19-error.htm
"4. Uninstall Apple iTunes. While that may sound a little drastic, iTunes is the cause of enough Code 19 errors to make it into this troubleshooting.
If removing iTunes works, you might try installing it again from scratch, which doesn't always reintroduce the problem. See How to Properly Reinstall a Software Program for general advice."
so i then uninstalled my itunes, uninstalled my driver and then updated it and "walla!". i can see my DVD drive again. i am using iTunes64Setup v12.0.1.26 just so everyone knows and this setup can detect both my iphones and my iphone 5s is using the latest version which is iOS 8.1.2..
after reinstallation of itunes my DVD drive can be seen and just noticed how APPLE SOFTWARES are so ****** up.. CAUSING A LOT OF TROUBLE AND DAMAGES..
so going back to the topic..
i was able to find a way (AFTER HOW MANY HOURS of TROUBLESHOOTING) on how my iphone 5s was able to detect the portable device or should i say the images on my iphone 5s where the autoplay pops up and everything..
so i went on device manager, uninstalled apple mobile device USB driver, disconnected my iphone 5s, UNLOCKED my iphone 5s, connected it to my PC, clicked on TRUST this PC, on my PC the sound for a USB being connected sounded, and at the bottom right, automatically installed the drivers and then the autoplay popped up with the matching PORTABLE DEVICES on COMPUTER where i can browse the internal storage and the pictures..
so now i opened iTunes and BOOOM!
iTunes doesn't detect my iphone 5s but i can browse on the images on my phone..
so again i went to device manager, uninstalled the driver for apple iphone under portable devices, scanned for hardware changes, updated the driver manually by selecting drive C: so it would automatically find the correct drive..
so now, my iphone can be detected by itunes but not on my COMPUTER.. see how ****** UP this is?!.. JEEEEEEEEEZ!!
Now i finally found the SOLUTION on how to do this and vice versa.. UNTIL APPLE decides to FIX their SOFTWARE/DRIVER issues..
if you want to scan or browse the images on your iphone 5s on your computer all you need to do is do this:
[for those who don't know how to reach this part, here is a GUIDE on how to open this is: click on the device > click on update driver software > browse my computer for driver software > let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer]
and then you will see the screen below
click on MTP USB Device and then click on Next, after it finishes installing the drivers, your PC will automatically detect a new portable device but in order for you to access the images you need to go back on your phone, unlock it if it lock automatically and then click on "TRUST" and then you can now see the images..
BUT the problem here is that your iPhone can't be detected on iTunes...
now, if you want to go back to where your phone can be detected on itunes, just follow these steps:
click on apple mobile device USB driver, click on Next and then wait for your computer to finish the installation and then you will hear the beeping sound. check your phone, unlock it, then click on "TRUST", and then go to iTunes and you will now see your iPhone there but not on your PC where you can browse for the images..
SEE HOW THIS DRIVERS are so ****** up.. i wish i hadn't started using this ****** UP OS with all the BUGS and GLITCHES.. JEEEZ! and to think, these DEVICES are not CHEAP compared to Android devices on the market.. it's just because of how these people go with the trend that they purchase these kind of stuff and the only thing they use it for is calling or texting.. i, for once use this not for calling or texting but also for the apps that it has like the games, ebooks and etc when im bored..
i HOPE the Apple DEVS read this and find the solution on the drivers which is so ****** UP and so LAME!!
PS: i hope a lot of people who are having the same issue as what i had find this and help them with their concern even though this is not a permanent solution.. it is just a work around for folks that are looking for answers and solution.
Have a Great Day Folks and it is the start of a New Year and want to contribute something even though i don't usually posts my work around.Hi LSGZ,

There was an error processing a page. there was a problem reading this document (110)?
hi
my name is kapil and i am trying to open one (which is downloded) pdf document.which giving me an error as there was an error processing a page. there was a problem reading this document (110) for some page only. i am using acrobat reader x. is it any 3d setting or any thing else please give me an idea. i am waiting for replay as soon as possible...........
your sincerely
KAPIL TRIVEDIWhen I encountered an error "there was a problem reading this document 110" in Acrobat Pro 11 on 28.7 MB CS6 file, it indeed was very frustrating.
I solved my problem, but since I don't know which step benefitted me, I've to enumerate all the steps I took:
Read below:
1.1. I could copy the file anywhere on the drive, but couldn't 'save as' from Acrobat Pro.
1.2. No document security was applied of any sort on the file.
1.3. Still in the first tab of the document properties, all details under advance section were empty. No 'PDF Version' 'location' 'file size' etc were populated. Nothing.
1.4. I couldn't change and save anything in any of property dialogue. I could comment on the text, but as soon as I tried to save, it gave an error (some sort of 'File reading' error).
1.5. When I tried to extract a page (I tried many), it gave 'reading error'.
1.6. I didn't try 'splitting error'. Since I was 100% sure, it'll give me same reading error.
1.7. I opened the file in Firefox and tried saving it as pdf from there. But no error, but no save either.
1.8. I ran 'Remove Hidden Information' from protection panel without any errors.
1.9. I tried 'sanitize document' from the same tab, but didn't succeed.
1.10. Then (here I think the problem was resolved), from Document Processing panel, I did some commands. 1st, 'Export all images', successfully. Then 'Remove all links', it found 0.
1.11. Then in 'print production' panel, I clicked/tried to open acrobat distiller. The same opened, did some processing. But I don't know if it did something in solving the problem or not.
1.12. Although I think my problem was resolved till now, but the last step I did was 'Saved As' the file (from the file menu) as a .ps file. Though I've not yet reopened/used that ps file (to convert it into a pdf file again). But around here I wanted to close the file and it asked me whether I wanted to save the file, I said yes. And it saved the file correctly. And I checked that in properties dialogue, the missing information was populated too.
1.13. Sorry for so lengthy instructions, but I had no choice. -
Error message: There was an error processing a page. There was a problem reading this document (110)
I opened a pdf document in Adobe Reader X. When I attempted to scroll through the pages the following error message appeared, “There was an error processing a page. There was a problem reading the document (110). After an Internet search to try to find the reason for the error and a solution, I came across a site that suggested it was an issue regarding the fonts of the document. I then reopened the document and went into the document’s font properties (FILE – PROPERTIES – FONTS tab). There I noticed that the “Gathering font information” stopped at 2% which, of course, I took to mean that Adobe Reader X was having a difficult time in loading the font’s information. Another site suggested opening the document in the pdf reader, Foxit. So I did, and the document loaded properly with no error messages. I was still curious as to why the document did not load entirely in Adobe Reader X and if the same problem would occur using a different reader. I then downloaded the pdf reader, Nitro Reader 2. I opened the same document and initially received the following message, “The requested page number is invalid and does not exist in this document.” I closed the message and proceeded to scroll through the document. As I scrolled, the following message appeared, “This file was damaged (corrupted) and has been repaired.” I thought, “Wonderful!” I then chose <FILE – SAVE AS – PDF DOCUMENT> and saved the “repaired” document under a new name. When I opened the “repaired” document with Adobe Reader X, behold, the document opened entirely with no error message. I was curious, so I went into the document’s font properties and noticed, this time around, that the “Gathering font information” loaded to 100%. Nitro Reader 2 detected the error and fixed it. Now I’m left to wonder…why wasn’t Adobe Reader X able to do the same? I hope this post helps others who are experiencing the same issue.

HOW TO TURN $6 INTO $6,000!!!!!! READING THIS COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE!
HOW TO TURN $6 INTO $6,000!!!!!! READING THIS COULD CHANGE
YOUR LIFE!
I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. A
little while back,
I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now, and
came across an
article similar to this that said you could make thousands of
dollars within
weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00! So I thought,
Yeah right,
this must be a scam,but like most of us, I was curious, so I
kept reading.
Anyway, it said that you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names
and address
stated in the article. You then place your own name and
address in the
bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least
200 newsgroups.
(There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after
thinking it over, and
talking to a few people first, I thought about trying it. I
figured: what
have I got to lose except 6
stamps and $6.00, right? Then I invested the measly $6.00.
Well GUESS
WHAT!!...
within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was
shocked! I figured
it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my
first week, I
made about $25.00. By the end of the second week I had made a
total of over
$1,000.00! In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's
still growing.
This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just
over $42,000.00
and it's still coming in rapidly. It's certainly worth $6.00,
and 6 stamps,
I have spent more than that on the lottery!! Let me tell you
how this works
and most importantly, why it works....Also, make sure you
print a copy of
this article NOW, so you can get the information off of it as
you need it. I
promise you
that if you follow the directions exactly, that you will
start making more
money than you thought possible by doing something so easy!
Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (Print it out
or download
it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come
in! It's easy.
It's legal. And, your investment is only $6.00 (Plus postage)
IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is
not illegal; and
it is virtually no risk - it really works!!!! If all of the
following
instructions are adhered to, you will receive extraordinary
dividends.
PLEASE NOTE: Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and
$50,000 or more can
be yours in 20 to 60 days. This program remains successful
because of the
honesty and integrity of the participants. Please continue
its success by
carefully
adhering to the instructions. You will now become part of the
Mail Order
business. In this business your product is not solid and
tangible, it's a
service. You are in the business of developing Mailing Lists.
Many large
corporations are happy to pay big bucks for quality lists.
However, the
money made from the mailing lists is secondary to the income
which is made
from people like you and me asking to be included in that
list. Here are the
4 easy steps to success:
STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the
following on each piece
of paper; PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST. Now get 6 US
$1.00 bills and
place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of paper so the bill
will not be seen
through the envelope (to prevent thievery). Next, place one
paper in each of
the 6 envelopes and seal them. You should now have 6 sealed
envelopes, each
with a piece of paper stating the above phrase, your name and
address, and a
$1.00 bill. What you are doing is creating a service. THIS IS
ABSOLUTELY
LEGAL! You are requesting a legitimate service and you are
paying for it!
Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little worried
about the
legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S.
Post Office
(1-800-725-2161) and they
confirmed that it is indeed legal! Mail the 6 envelopes to
the following
addresses:
Mailing Adresses
Stephanie Hicks

Orlando, FL 32817
STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above,
move the other
names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR Name
as number 6 on
the list.
STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this
article as close
to
original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at
least 200
newsgroups. (I think there are close to 24,000 groups) All
you need is 200,
but remember, the more you post, the more money you make!
This is perfectly
legal! If you have any doubts, refer to Title 18 Sec. 1302
& 1341 of the
Postal lottery laws. Keep a copy of these steps for yourself
and, whenever
you need money, you can use it again, and again.
PLEASE REMEMBER that this program remains successful because
of the honesty
and integrity of the participants and by their carefully
adhering to the
directions. Look at it this way. If you are of integrity, the
program will
continue and the money that so many others have received will
come your way.
NOTE: You may want to retain every name and address sent to
you, either on a
computer or hard copy and keep the notes people send you.
This VERIFIES that
you are truly providing a service. (Also, it might be a good
idea to wrap
the $1 bill in dark paper to reduce the risk of mail theft.)
So, as each
post is downloaded and the directions carefully followed, six
members will
be reimbursed for their participation as a List Developer
with one dollar
each. Your name will move up the list geometrically so that
when your name
reaches the #1 position you will be receiving thousands of
dollars in
CASH!!! What an opportunity for only $6.00 ($1.00 for each of
the first six
people listed above) Send it now, add your own name to the
list and you're
in business!
---DIRECTIONS ----- FOR HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS------------
Step 1) You do
not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own
posting. Simply put
your cursor at the beginning of this letter and drag your
cursor to the
bottom of this document, and select 'copy' from the edit
menu. This will
copy the entire letter into the computer's memory.
Step 2) Open a blank 'notepad' file and place your cursor at
the top of the
blank page. From the 'edit' menu select 'paste'. This will
paste a copy of
the letter into notepad so that you can add your name to the
list.
Step 3) Save your new notepad file as a .txt file. If you
want to do your
postings in different settings, you'll always have this file
to go back to.
Step 4) Use Netscape or Internet explorer and try searching
for various
newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites,
discussions.) Step
5) Visit these message boards and post this article as a new
message by
highlighting the text of this letter and selecting paste from
the edit menu.
Fill in the Subject, this will be the header that everyone
sees as they
scroll through the list of postings in a particular group,
click the post
message button. You're done with your first one!
Congratulations...THAT'S
IT! All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and
post away, after
you get the hang of it, it will take about 30 seconds for
each newsgroup!
**REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY
YOU WILL MAKE!!
BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200**
That's it! You will begin receiving money from around the
world within days!
You may eventually want to rent a P.O.Box due to the large
amount of mail
you will receive. If you wish to stay anonymous, you can
invent a name to
use, as long as the postman will deliver it.
**JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT.** Now the WHY
part: Out of
200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a very low
example). So then I
made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of
the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200
postings, each
with my name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the
original 5,
that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each make 200
MINIMUM posts with
my name at #4 and only 5 replies each, I will bring in an
additional
$125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn around and post the
MINIMUM 200 with my
name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an
additional
$626.00! OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625
persons post a
MINIMUM 200 letters with my name at #2 and they each only
receive 5 replies,
that just made me $3,125.00!!! Those
3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups
with my name
at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200 newsgroups react I will
receive
$15,625,00!With an original investment of only $6.00!
AMAZING! When your
name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest
posting in the
newsgroups, and send out another $6.00 to names on the list,
putting your
name at number 6 again. And start posting again. The thing to
remember is:
do you realize that thousands of people all over the world
are joining the
internet and reading these articles
everyday?, JUST LIKE YOU are now!! So, can you afford $6.00
and see if it
really works?? I think so... People have said, "e;what if the
plan is played
out and no one sends you the money? So what! What are the
chances of that
happening when there are tons of new honest users and new
honest people who
are joining the internet and newsgroups everyday and are
willing to give it
a try?
Estimates are at 20,000 to 50,000 new users, every day, with
thousands of
those joining the actual internet.
Remember: play FAIRLY and HONESTLY and this will really work.HOW TO TURN $6 INTO $6,000!!!!!! READING THIS COULD CHANGE
YOUR LIFE!
I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. A
little while back,
I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now, and
came across an
article similar to this that said you could make thousands of
dollars within
weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00! So I thought,
Yeah right,
this must be a scam,but like most of us, I was curious, so I
kept reading.
Anyway, it said that you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names
and address
stated in the article. You then place your own name and
address in the
bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least
200 newsgroups.
(There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after
thinking it over, and
talking to a few people first, I thought about trying it. I
figured: what
have I got to lose except 6
stamps and $6.00, right? Then I invested the measly $6.00.
Well GUESS
WHAT!!...
within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was
shocked! I figured
it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my
first week, I
made about $25.00. By the end of the second week I had made a
total of over
$1,000.00! In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's
still growing.
This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just
over $42,000.00
and it's still coming in rapidly. It's certainly worth $6.00,
and 6 stamps,
I have spent more than that on the lottery!! Let me tell you
how this works
and most importantly, why it works....Also, make sure you
print a copy of
this article NOW, so you can get the information off of it as
you need it. I
promise you
that if you follow the directions exactly, that you will
start making more
money than you thought possible by doing something so easy!
Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (Print it out
or download
it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come
in! It's easy.
It's legal. And, your investment is only $6.00 (Plus postage)
IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is
not illegal; and
it is virtually no risk - it really works!!!! If all of the
following
instructions are adhered to, you will receive extraordinary
dividends.
PLEASE NOTE: Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and
$50,000 or more can
be yours in 20 to 60 days. This program remains successful
because of the
honesty and integrity of the participants. Please continue
its success by
carefully
adhering to the instructions. You will now become part of the
Mail Order
business. In this business your product is not solid and
tangible, it's a
service. You are in the business of developing Mailing Lists.
Many large
corporations are happy to pay big bucks for quality lists.
However, the
money made from the mailing lists is secondary to the income
which is made
from people like you and me asking to be included in that
list. Here are the
4 easy steps to success:
STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the
following on each piece
of paper; PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST. Now get 6 US
$1.00 bills and
place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of paper so the bill
will not be seen
through the envelope (to prevent thievery). Next, place one
paper in each of
the 6 envelopes and seal them. You should now have 6 sealed
envelopes, each
with a piece of paper stating the above phrase, your name and
address, and a
$1.00 bill. What you are doing is creating a service. THIS IS
ABSOLUTELY
LEGAL! You are requesting a legitimate service and you are
paying for it!
Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little worried
about the
legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S.
Post Office
(1-800-725-2161) and they
confirmed that it is indeed legal! Mail the 6 envelopes to
the following
addresses:
Mailing Adresses
Stephanie Hicks
1283 Evening Canyon
Henderson NV 89014
Ross Wilson
202 Belmont Dr.
Thibodaux, LA 70301
James Small
4690 Sierra St.
Riverside, CA 92504
Thomas G.
P.O. Box 591939
Houston, TX 77259
S. Parker
159 Main Street
Dadeville, Alabama 36853
A. Wyman
9734 Landowne ct.
Orlando, FL 32817
STEP 2: Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above,
move the other
names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR Name
as number 6 on
the list.
STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this
article as close
to
original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at
least 200
newsgroups. (I think there are close to 24,000 groups) All
you need is 200,
but remember, the more you post, the more money you make!
This is perfectly
legal! If you have any doubts, refer to Title 18 Sec. 1302
& 1341 of the
Postal lottery laws. Keep a copy of these steps for yourself
and, whenever
you need money, you can use it again, and again.
PLEASE REMEMBER that this program remains successful because
of the honesty
and integrity of the participants and by their carefully
adhering to the
directions. Look at it this way. If you are of integrity, the
program will
continue and the money that so many others have received will
come your way.
NOTE: You may want to retain every name and address sent to
you, either on a
computer or hard copy and keep the notes people send you.
This VERIFIES that
you are truly providing a service. (Also, it might be a good
idea to wrap
the $1 bill in dark paper to reduce the risk of mail theft.)
So, as each
post is downloaded and the directions carefully followed, six
members will
be reimbursed for their participation as a List Developer
with one dollar
each. Your name will move up the list geometrically so that
when your name
reaches the #1 position you will be receiving thousands of
dollars in
CASH!!! What an opportunity for only $6.00 ($1.00 for each of
the first six
people listed above) Send it now, add your own name to the
list and you're
in business!

amount of mail
you will receive. If you wish to stay anonymous, you can
invent a name to
use, as long as the postman will deliver it.
**JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT.** Now the WHY
part: Out of
200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a very low
example). So then I
made $5.00 with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of
the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the MINIMUM 200
postings, each
with my name at #5 and only 5 persons respond to each of the
original 5,
that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each make 200
MINIMUM posts with
my name at #4 and only 5 replies each, I will bring in an
additional
$125.00! Now, those 125 persons turn around and post the
MINIMUM 200 with my
name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an
additional
$626.00! OK, now here is the fun part, each of those 625
persons post a
MINIMUM 200 letters with my name at #2 and they each only
receive 5 replies,
that just made me $3,125.00!!! Those
3,125 persons will all deliver this message to 200 newsgroups
with my name
at #1 and if still 5 persons per 200 newsgroups react I will
receive
$15,625,00!With an original investment of only $6.00!
