  • How to upgrade firmware on 7921g wireless phone from 1.0.2 to 1.0.4 via USB

    how to upgrade firmware on 7921g wireless phone from 1.0.2 to 1.0.4 via USB?
    The 7921g is connected via USB to a PC. I am using a browser to access the phone. Documentation says "Click the Phone Upgrade hyperlink under SYSTEM options. " but that option is not present or not visible.

    You can use the Phone Upgrade area on the web page to upgrade firmware files on the phones by using the USB connection or by using the WLAN. To upgrade the phone software, enter the phone software TAR (firmware file name) or use the Browse button to locate the firmware file on the network.
    To display the Phone Upgrade area, access the web page for the phone as described in the Accessing the Configuration Web Page for a Phone section available at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cuipph/7921g/5_0_1/english/administration/guide/21adm50.pdf

  • Photoshop CS6 can't save to server after upgrading to Mac OS Yosemite Server from Mac Lion Server

    We recently upgraded our server from a Mac Pro 2008 with OS X Lion Server to a Mac Mini 2014 with LaCie 20TB 5Big Thunderbolt 2 RAID drive. Everything is working fine with the exception of Photoshop. It does it intermittently but once it happens it will continue to do so. We get message like "Can't save to disk because of disk error" and "Can't save file because of program error" . Sometime we are able to do a "save as" and save over it. Most of the time we have to "save as" with a different file name and then rename and recopy the file. We have check permission on all the file as well as the server HD has ignore ownership checked. Again only three things changed. 1) Sever hardware change from Mac Pro to Mac Mini. 2) Server software upgraded from 10.7 Lion to 10.10 Yosemite(both have the latest update). 3) Drive when from internal on Mac Pro to External Thunderbolt 2 LaCie drive. We have no problem with Illustrator or Indesign. Only Photoshop. Anyone with any suggestion is greatly appreciated.

    Unfortunately you seem to be using Photoshop in a way that Adobe discourages, so you may not be getting a lot of helpful advice.

  • How do I show in Facebook message "sent from mac"? Is it possible?

    I was wondering if there's any option as such which would show "sent from mac" in facebook. Please, free to leave your ideas. I'd love to hear them.

    When I want to copy it to a thumbdrive ... click/drag is the standard, but it's never worked with iPhoto ... & it seems, it STILL doesn't work with the iOS-looking "photo."  sigh.
    FWIW, you can drag a photo, video, or a selection of several items from the Photos main window into a folder (including the desktop), but you get a recompressed version at a (non-adjustable) fixed pixel resolution that is typically lower than the original, & it will be the edited version if you have edited the photo in Photos. Because of the recompression & resolution changes, it can take from a fraction of a second to many minutes for the dropped copies to appear in the folder, particularly if you are dropping multiple items and/or large video files.
    However, if you hold down the option key during the drag & drop, you get an unaltered version of the original(s) & the process takes no longer than a normal file copy.
    This may be useful for copying to thumb drives.

  • Wont boot after Deleting Mac OS 9 files from Mac Pro

    I noticed some Mac OS 9 files on my main HD. Incorrectly, I guess, I figured I could just delete them.  Well.... It allowed me to trash some, and not others. When I tried to move those out of trash back to their folders, it wouldn't let me. SO, I rebooted only to find out my Mac Pro wont boot up now!. All I get is a grey screen with Apple symbol and the indicator going round and round and round.
    Rebooted holding option and selecting a Tech Tool sectioned of drive. When to my back up and copy the Mac OS 9 files from it back to the main HD. Didn't work. Then tried to use Time Machine.. still no go.
    I'm thing I need to reinstall my MAc OSX 10.6.8 that I have as an dmg file on another drive.
    Any suggestions? 
    Thanks,
    Ray

  • What about the Mac OS 9.2 from Mac OS X

    Do you think I can install Mac OS 9.2 directly from the second Mac OSX CD on a PowerBook 3400c with 2gb HD and 80MB of RAM?
    I'm asking because my friend got rid of his Mac and gave me his Mac OS X CD's and since, I know I can't install X on my machine, maybe the 9.2 would do...
    Or would that require Mac OS 9 helper?

    Hi, Prosis. I suspect the CDs given to you will be of no value at all with your PB 3400. No retail (universal) OS X installer disc set includes an installer for OS 9. The only Mac OS X installer CD sets that include installers for OS 9.x are model-specific installers, and none of them is specific to a PB 3400. I think it very unlikely that you will be able to start your computer up from any CD in such a set. Even if you're able to do so, I doubt very much that an OS 9 installer designed for some other Mac model will install a functional OS 9.0.x or 9.1 — let alone OS 9.2.2, which is unsupported on your computer.
    OS 9 Helper is only useful for applying the OS 9.2.1 and 9.2.2 downloadable updaters to an already-installed OS 9.1. It does not make possible any other method of installing any version of OS 9 from any source disc.
    There is no way to install a bootable OS 9.2.2 directly from any CD on any Mac, except from an installer CD that is specific to that Mac model and was originally shipped with it.

  • Do I need an Antivirus if I have windows on my Mac and frequently go from Mac OS to Windows (7)?

    I have been using a Mac and am thinking of getting windows 7 installed on it.
    My question is, will I need an antivirus software?
    - I will be frequently changing from Mac OS and Windows.
    - I will only be playing games from (Steam and Origin).
    - Will not be using it to download anything except games for steam and origin. 
    - I will have things like twitter open on chrome.
    (emails I do not need to open on my computer)
    - Nothing else will be open
    Antivirus softwares are very pricy these days, therefore, if I will need one, is there a free alternative for an antivirus software? Or is it okay if I keep switching between Mac OS and Windows 7?
    Thank you.

    Thank you very much the very quick reply.
    Will download Win7 now and check out Microsoft Security Essentials!
    Again, thanks for the help.

  • How to access my video stream on icloud from mac

    I have pictures and videos on my shared stream that I took/recorded from my iPhone 5S. I don't know how to access these files from may MacBook Pro because I want to move these files to my hard drive on my MacBook Pro. Please help. Thank you!

    iCloud requires OS X 10.7.5 or higher, and iCloud photo sharing (which includes shared videos) requires OS X Mavericks v10.9 and either iPhoto '11 version 9.5 or Aperture 3.5.  Without these, you can't access the shared stream videos on your Mac.  However, at the present time you cannot save a shared video from a shared stream anyway, you can only view it.  If you want it on your Mac you’ll need to import the video to iPhoto from your camera roll using your usb cable as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.

  • How do I fix a font compatibilty issue from Mac to Windows, using Adobe Flash CS4?

    Hi,
    I need to edit a Flash movie that somebody else developed in Adobe Flash CS3 on a Mac. I'm using Adobe Flash CS4 on Windows (Vista). However, the font that shows up on my computer is much bigger than on the .SWF that he produced.
    He used a custom font, which I had to add to my system Fonts folder. Because Adobe Flash detected the right fonts on my computer, it didn't map them to substitute fonts. I verified that Flash is indeed using the same font files that he used.
    I believe the fonts are being rendered differently because I'm using Windows.
    How do I fix this?

    hi all - I have a similar problem with flash - basically the plugin crashes pretty much every time I am not looking at it directly (playing online games in tabs for example)
    I have tried disabling the "memory-safe-away-time-out thingee" in config:about - to no avail. I have also tried disabling all other plugins (not that I actually have many - Java, VLC, quicktime, some windows stuff), have set themes to default, have made sure all plugins are latest version.
    currently running the 4.0.b2 Firefox version cause of the plug in crashes in the 3.6.8 version - same problem though.
    and where it gets really strange is that a friendly help person on the adobe site suggested I upgrade my firefox to version 3.8 (while I was on the 3.6.8 version) and that would fix it. which I thought was.. interesting as 3.6.8 is the latest version as Firefox upgrade check insisted.
    by now i have invested at least 4 days trying to fix this issue and I gotta say... I am tempted to actually try other browsers, though firefox is my default browser since years.

  • How to upgrade to the coming Lion OSX from 10.5.8

    I intend to upgrade to the coming Lion OSX version from 10.5.8. Reading the Apple home page I got the impression an upgrade is only possible from version 10.6.8. So is this true?
    greetings Angelo

  • How to stop ios mail deleting icloud email from mac mail?

    This is driving me insane.
    I have an icloud email address set up on my iphone and mac mail.
    I want to leave emails on my phone 'on the server'. Read them when i'm out, delete them... come home and have them all come through on mail where i'll deal with them.
    Right now if I delete them on my phone, they're deleted on mac mail also.
    I have all my regular email addresses set up to do this. Except the one icloud address I want to move everything to!!!
    Help!!!

    Hello there David DW,
    It sounds like your iPhone does whatever your iPad does with regard to joining or forgetting a Wi-Fi network. From what you are describing it seems to me that iCloud Keychain is enabled, as this is a function of that feature. The only way to stop what you are seeing from happening is to disable iCloud keychain on one of the devices:
    Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain
    iCloud Keychain keeps your Safari website usernames and passwords, credit card information, and Wi-Fi network information up to date across all of your approved devices that are using iOS 7.0.3 or later or OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later.
    You can do this in your iCloud Settings:
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then tap to turn on or off iCloud features.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • How to keep links in a pdf converting from MAc word

    Hey.
    I need to create a pdf with a document created in MAC word - and keep the links.  This doesn't seem to be working.
    Help??

    That makes sense. So I guess it looks like I have 2 options.
    1. Put the JS short code in and have it open the link in a new window if the user opens it in adobe. If a google chrome user opens it in the default viewer, they wont be able to use the link at all.
    2. Leave the link how it is, and it will be usable in both viewers, but will not open it in a new window.
    I am sureprised that opening the link in a new window isn't just an option in Acrobat Pro. I wouldn't think you'd have to make a workaround like this.
    Is there an alternative way to have a page link on the form so that people can go to another .pdf whil keeping the main one open?

  • How to only transfer some photos to ipad from mac

    I only want to take some the photo off my mac and put them on the ipad how is that done?

    If you are on iTunes 11 on your Mac then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
    To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders/albums to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
