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

Finally Found a Solution to the Missing Palettes/No Screen update problem!
Ever since CS3 came out, Photoshop and Illustrator in particular (the worst offenders) wouldn't run properl
y on my system unless I did a full reboot before running either. Photoshop would load, but all palettes would be empty. Illustrator would forget t
o update the client area of the screen. Neither application was useable in that state. I have complained about it before, to no avail.
Now I have found the fix: Increasing the User Handle and GDI handle limits in Windows.
Here's an article on how to do this:
Increasing User Handle and GDI Handle Limits
Have you ever been working with a good number of applications at once? Are you a naturally born multi tasker? Alright, answer me this - who has had Windows buckle under the weight of all of these applications and display error messages stating that the system is out of memory or out of resources, buttons and menus do not work correctly, or you get an error sound but no message on the screen? I’ve hit this numerous times, to the point that I’ve lost work because of it…
(By the way, Adobe, can you please implement that little feature that Microsoft Office has had for years known as “auto save”? I don’t know how many times I’ve managed to completely max out Windows designing a web site and have had Photoshop fall over dead and disappear off my screen, only to find out that when I open Photoshop up again that the entire thing saved jack-all, all of those layers and documents gone poof into the void of darkness… if Microsoft can do it, why can’t you?)
Sometimes this happens even when you have a lot of system memory (RAM) still available. For instance, open up Internet Explorer and hold Ctrl+N to open up as many Internet Explorer windows as you can before menus, icons, and menus start displaying incorrectly, disappear, buttons aren’t clickable, etc. Close a few out and check your Windows Task Manager in the “Performance” tab, I bet you will find that a lot of your Physical Memory is still available.

“Okie-dokie, if I have all of this memory still available, why is Windows saying I’m out of memory and out of system resources!?”
Simple. You have hit the “user handle” or “GDI handle” limit in Windows. This limit is there for two reasons:
* Leaky applications or faulty code & malware can’t easily crash the system by attempting to overflow the system with GDI handles, making everything un-usable until a reboot is performed.
* To prevent a user from opening up more applications than the system can handle.
If you have 1 gigabyte (or 1024MB) of RAM or higher, the default User Handle and GDI Handle limits can be pretty restrictive when running a large working set of applications that demand the most from your system and tax it heavily.
“Do you feel my pain?”
Yes, of course. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be writing this article that is more than likely a good 2 or 3 pages in length.
I’m a designer and coder, I use Adobe Photoshop with a lot of documents opened up - on top of that, I usually listen to music while working as it helps me work better, so Windows Media Player 10 is usually open on my machine. Also opened are Windows Messenger, Microsoft Office Outlook 2003, SmartFTP (one of the best FTP clients I’ve ever used, highly recommended), Microsoft Word, a few dozen Internet Explorer windows, some Mozilla Firefox windows with a few tabs opened in each one, and EditPlus 2 for coding.
That’s a pretty heavy working set of applications, and I demand the most out of my computer when it comes to multitasking (I have a Pentium 4 2.66GHz, with 1.5GB of RAM just for those who are wondering).
I too have nailed these handle limits - more than once. After much searching and pondering I have finally come up with a working solution around this issue (hurray!)
“Yeah yeah, stop rambling and cut to the chase!”
First and foremost, I must warn you that modifying these settings incorrectly can render your Windows installation near useless. Also, depending on your computer configuration and the amount of RAM in your system, you may wish to play around with the numbers until you find a setting that is perfect for your computer.
To back up everything, open the Registry Editor (click on Start, Run, and then type “regedit.exe” (without the quotes).
To backup a registry key:
* In the Registry Editor on the left hand side, you will see the navigation pane. Using your mouse or keyboard, navigate to the following subkeys:
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\SubSystems
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
* Right click on each of the subkeys above in the left hand pane and from the context menu that appears, choose the “Export” option. Save the exported registry data file where ever you wish, but make sure that it will be accessible should we need to restore the files.
“OK, I’ve backed everything up! Now what!?”
Don’t quit the Registry Editor just yet - we still need to make some modifications in order to increase the handle limits in Windows.
With the Registry Editor opened, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\SubSystems. You will notice a set of “REG_MULTI_SZ” and “REG_EXPAND_SZ” keys in the right hand pane. The one that we are interested in modifying is called “Windows”.
To modify the key, double click on it. It should look something like this:
%SystemRoot%\system32\csrss.exe ObjectDirectory=\Windows SharedSection=1024,3072,512 Windows=On SubSystemType=Windows ServerDll=basesrv,1 ServerDll=winsrv:UserServerDllInitialization,3 ServerDll=winsrv:ConServerDllInitialization,2 ProfileControl=Off MaxRequestThreads=16
The section of this string we are interested in modifting is “SharedSection”.
In the SharedSection part of the string you will notice 3 numbers. What we are interested in is the middle value, “3072?. Modify this value so that the middle number is “8192?.
It should look something like this after modifying the value:
%SystemRoot%\system32\csrss.exe ObjectDirectory=\Windows SharedSection=1024,8192,512 Windows=On SubSystemType=Windows ServerDll=basesrv,1 ServerDll=winsrv:UserServerDllInitialization,3 ServerDll=winsrv:ConServerDllInitialization,2 ProfileControl=Off MaxRequestThreads=16
Now that we’ve changed this, lets continue, shall we?
In the left hand pane of the Registry Editor, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows. In the right hand side, you will see two REG_DWORD values, named “GDIProcessHandleQuota” and “USERProcessHandleQuota”. We will need to modify both of these.
The first key we will want to modify is “GDIProcessHandleQuota”. This keys value can be set between 256 and 16,384 (maximum), and the default value is 10,000. I’d recommend using 15,000 as a value for this key, however if you are doing a lot of multitasking, shoot for the stars and go with 16,384.
This key can not be set past 16,384 as it is the maximum acceptable value.
Now, lets modify “USERProcessHandleQuota”. This keys value can be set between 200 and 18,000 (maximum), with a default value of 10,000. I’d recommend increasing this value to the same number used with “GDIProcessHandleQuota”, however as previously mentioned if you are working with a hefty application workload, shoot for the stars and go wth the maximum value of 18,000.
This key can not be set past 18,000 as it is the maximum acceptable value.
Do NOT attempt to increase these values past the maximum - Windows will become very unstable and may even stop working correctly. If Windows starts acting up after changing these values, lower them until the issues are resolved, or restore the backups of these keys’ values that we created before making modifications.
Now that you’ve changed these values, restart your computer and tax the system using the Internet Explorer trick mentioned previously - open Internet Explorer and hold down Ctrl+N on your keyboard to open up new Internet Explorer windows. Continue this until menus, buttons, and user interface elements stop working correctly. Also, open any applications you run day-to-day while you are performing this, so that you can get more of an idea if you have everything configured correctly.
You may also want to monitor your memory usage and handles information in Task Manager to see whether or not the above registry values need any more modifications.
I hope this helps with any multi-tasking issues you may have run into while running Microsoft Windows, now get back to work!You work like I do. It's very cool that you published this fix for XP people, but yow, what a lot of detailed things to check/set! Seems like it might just be simpler just to move up to Windows 7...

If you have the No Audio Device Issue, I finally found a solution...
MacPro, XP
I tried all the easy solutions with making sure the Windows Audio was working, the Device Manager, etc.
The solution that worked for me was
First, uninstall SP3 on the Windows side (you do this through the control panel, add/remove programs)
Install Boot Camp 2.1 on the windows side.
(FYI, this version of boot camp would not run for me unless you have Leopard on the Mac side. I had OSX 4.11 or something and had to upgrade to Leopard)
If you have the Leopard installation disc, simply input into the drive on the Windows side.
Next reinstall SP3
Worked for me - hope it works for you.I had same problem not with XP but with Windows 7 beta. I posted online and a lot of people said Realtek this and Realtek that, it didn't work for me. I finally tried installing Bootcamp 2.1 and voila it worked. While it was installing drivers, I noticed bootcamp saying "Removing Realtek audio ... " then "Installing SigmaTel audio ... " few seconds later i started hearing all the bells and whistles of Windows 7. Woohoo!
I guess Realtek works for some people with various configurations but for me it was Siggy. -
Finally found a solution for sync
over here they offered me the following solution:
iPhone creates a separate folder, so when opening outlook take iPhones original folder and use this as your default calendar. this works for the moment but it is tricky because if I forget to remember to open the other folder: lost entrys and if a shared entry applies it has to be copied. Facit: better than not beeing able to sync but no final solution at all dear apple!Thank you and whoever you copied this from so so much. Having already sent back one new iPod shuffle because after randomly autofilling from my entire music collection depsite following all the troubleshooting tips it just wouldn't let me do anything else, so I conclude it was broken! I then went out and got another new one from a different source only to find I had exactly the same problem. Ok that's too spooky for it to be a hardware problem, but having wasted two evenings of my life trying to sort it out I thankfully came across this post which works!:-) You are my saviour! Come on Apple put a fix out there for this or at least acknowledge there is a problem - otherwise I'm sure you'll end up loosing sales!

Finally found a solution to photos appearing correctly in Contacts!
I'm just posting this to hopefully help others who may be struggling to get photos to appear in the contacts section of their iPod. I've got a 5th gen iPod, and I had no problem importing contact information to it from Address Book, including the photos, up until updating to OS X v10.4.6 and/or updating to the latest iPod update (v 1.1.1). Then, for some reason, I was able to get all the information except the photos to transfer from Address Book to the iPod.
I tried several things, but what finally worked was making sure to add the photos in Address Book using the "Use Custom Image" command under the "Card" menu. I had been pasting photos into the picture area in Address Book from the clipboard, which looks fine there, but doesn't seem to want to transfer to the iPod. If I ONLY add photos to Address Book using the Use Custom Image command, all works well.
I hope that helps anyone looking for an answer to this question.I guess this question is answered (for me, anyway). I just wanted to post something helpful to someone else.

Has anyone found a solution to the issue of default email account on iPhone continually changing?
I am seeing an irritating problem with the default mail account, calendar and contacts list on my iPhone 4.
Every so often (I think it happens randomly after syncing or even just connecting the iPhone to my iMac without syncing) I notice that some or all of my default email account, calendar and contacts list have changed away from my desired default (which is my Exchange account).
The iPhone is running iOS 4.3.5 (8L1) and I'm using iTunes 10.4.1 on my iMac.
I found this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1639451 dating back 2 years to the days of iOS 2.1 without any solution. Googling hasn't helped me find any answers yet.
I have 5 accounts set up on the iPhone - a MobileMe "Find my phone" account that's only used for that purpose, not email, a GMail account, a couple of vanilla IMAP accounts and my main, Exchange 2010-based account that I use for mail, contacts and calendar.
Most frequently after a change I find that the default email has switched to the GMail account, the calendar and contacts lists have switched to my iPhone and most of my Exchange account mail folders are empty and have to re-sync when I tap on them.
I know from Googling that other people have been seeing similar issues.
Has anyone found a workaround or solution?Has no one found any solutions to this?
Or at least what causes it (so that it might be avoided)?
I find it difficult to believe this issue has existed so long in iOS without being addressed! -
Every time I try to access my emails on microsoft outlook I get a message from windows that mobileme services have stopped working. windows then tries to find a solution and says mobileme is not installed correctly. When I try to repair or uninstall via the control panel my pc cannot find the route????? I do have an iphone and ipad. What can I do?
The CrashIDs are what is needed. Do not attempt to attach or paste the reports.

I found a solution to Photoshop CS6, Windows 8.1 HiDPI, Small UI problem
I found a solution and here it is - I have been struggling to find a solution to the small UI on Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 issue since May 2014 when I purchased a Dell XPS15 with high resolution. Like many, I've spent countless hours searching for a solution and reading Adobe's weak answers and everyone's growing frustrations. Finally a found a post that solved the issue for me. The UI is now fine for both Photoshop and Illustrator.
Here is the link - it worked for me and was really very easy to do.
Hack makes Photoshop and Illustrator readable on Surface Pro — Surface Pro ArtistI have never fully understood Microsoft windows desktop scaling and usually just stay with Microsoft default settings. I have played with it some, I know if I scale fonts way up in size the may not fit in in son applications UI areas and have also observed the some application seem to honor Microsoft scaling and others do not. So I never set a custom scaling factor. I stick with the few presets Microsoft set up. Normally stick with Microsoft default setting. The seems to be for the most machines 100%. When I set up my surface Pro 3 I notices that Microsoft default for the machine 150%. Microsoft presets are 100% 2160x1440, 125% 1728x1152, the 150% default 1440x960 and 200% 1080x720. Applications like Web browsers saw the screen at the 150% size resolution 1440x960 Pixe's and display was very useable. Application like Adobe Photoshop saw the display 100% setting 2160x1440 and the UI was in the small useable you need to add a mouse. If I use CC 2014 Preference 2x UI Photoshop would use the 200% setting 1080x720 and Photoshop UI was so large it did not fit on screen. the display was not 768 pixel high. So I thought I would try the registry hack and the external Photoshop.exe.manifest file to see how 150% scale looked. 1440x960 meets Photoshop display size requirement. The result is quite nice. Here are three screen captures one with PS UI and tool bat a second wit UI, Tool bar and some Pallets and a third in full screen mode without UI, Tool Bar and Palettes. All have my touchkey UI. It is like having a display with an 144 ppi resolution. John thank you for posting what you found. Its looking good.

Iphone 2G 2.0.1 using Linksys WRT54GL- found a solution for wifi problems
My iphone was unable to see my home wifi router .
After many many hours of changing the iphone and the router parameters I found a solution.
I switched the Wireless Network Mode to G-only and put an open DNS (208.67.222.222) on the list of static DNS in my router (setup/basic setup).
Now when iphone got an IP I removed from the iphone Wifi DNS list the other DNS numbers and left only the open DNS address.
I hope this solution will help someone else
Message was edited by: HavaySome of the problems people are having with connections has to do with the fact that for some reason they're either getting an IP address that's not in their subnet or not getting an IP address assigned at all. That was happening to me as well. What happens when you connect via ethernet is that you resolve that problem.
Hopefully Apple will come up with a permanent solution soon. -
I found a solution to my "USB not recognized" Problem
Ok everybody, this is what I did to fix my problem... It sounds tupid but it worked.
First of, I turned of my computer, and unplugged all of my USB devices. When I restarted my machine, I did so in safe mode (F8 during startup for Windows XP). In safe mode, I opened my device manager and removed the USB devices. Starting simply with the regular devices, then the "Enhanced USB COntroller", followed by the "USB Host". I removed everything until there was no USB dvices anymore. The first time I tried this is did not work, until I got some info from another site. The key is, once you remove everything, shut down your computer and UNPLUG THE TOWER FROM THE WALL SOCKET. Apparently this work because it allows the remaining charge in the tower to dicipate, forcing it to start all over once it is turned back on. (Not sure how this makes sense, but it worked, so I could care less). So, I let my computer rest with no power for 30 min. Plugged it back in, truned it on and let Windows find the drivers again. Once it was done I started plugging stuff back in. Lo and behold everything was back to normal and I was able to use USB 2.0 and not have to use the much slower USB 1.1
Hope this helps someone.
Thanks to those to help it has stopped me from going crazy lol....mileCame wrote:

I found the solution to a Mavericks bug on the Mail program. How can I share it? Several of my mail boxes stopped functioning properly when I updated to Mavericks. The title of the mails stored in the mailbox appear, but the content was unavailable.
After 4 long hours at the phone with the Apple staff unable to help me, I discovered that if I change the name of the mailbox, the contents of the mails stored there become available.
Please, make this solution available to other people!You have found the the way to share it. Include your problem and its solution in a forum post in the Mavericks forums. Then mark you own post with a green solved star.

I HAVE FOUND THE SOLUTION FOR THE FIRMWARE UPDA
I'm sure most all of you have had this same problem I <strike>had:</strike> When you try to install the firmware update it says 'Plug in your player'!!? A very frusterating message mainly when your player is CLEARLY plugged in. So here's how I came about my solution!?I endlessly searched on this support forum, and I found that several people had found the solution several different ways!? Then other people have tried other's solutions, and it worked for some, but not all!?The forums have obviously pointed the problem at the computer, and not the player. They are halfly right, the problem isn't what you do on the player, but it's what they do to the player. I figured that there was something that the succesfull posters?did in the mean-time between posts that the unsuccesfull posters didn't do. It also didn't make sense, like others said was the problem, that it was Windows Media Player!? They said that you needed to roll it back, downgrade, to WMP 9 or 0. This made absolutely no sense to me because when I brought up WMP , and 0 for that matter, it recognized 'creative ZEN touch' under the 'synch' tab. After I found the solution, sorry for writing so long about how instead of just what it is: I just wanted to make it clear that this is the solution, I told my dad what it was!?He said that it made perfect sense because when my older brother tried to upgrade his firmware on his Dell MP3 Player, a message said that:It must be fully charged!?Beore you mess up your computer deleting all of these files and waste your time, try plugging your player into the wall at the same time it's plugged into the computer!? Then run your firmware update and bravo!? You are back in buisness!?Here is what to do in a little easier reading format:?. Plug your player into the wall.2. a. Plug your player into the computer.?b. (your player, at least my ZEN touch, should have the 'Docked' screen up. I'm not completely sure how this comes about, but I think that it'll appear that way while downloading the firmware update.)? If not, then try it anyways!3. Go to http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/?and search by product!4. Download the firmware update.?I hope that the moderators and admins find that this is, in fact, the solution!? Make this a sticky or something!? Your loss, not mine. :smileysurprised:
for all of you that fall in this...
sorry guys it was supposed to be a postponed April fools day joke!!
... i believe you will forgive this little silly joke of mine

"Adobe has found a solution or workaround for the recent crash in Adobe Flash CC" ...not really.
Hi guys,
My Flash CC crashes all the time, it's always been doing it since when I started using it on CS4, and I've somewhat given up on this bug being fixed, it crashes at least 20-30 times every document I create. I'm using a Wacom Bamboo Fun Pen&Touch tablet and drawing a lot, I think the problem is that it can't handle this much drawing.
Anyways, it just crashed and for the first time after reopening I found this nice message from Flash:
"Adobe has found a solution or workaround for the recent crash in Adobe Flash CC.
Please click here for further details."
Excited, I clicked on it! At last, a solution! Amazing!
...but it just points to http://www.adobe.com/
... I don't understand.
What's happening? I'm genuinely puzzled.
Also, anybody else experiencing frequent crashes?
Thanks!
Ciao!Yes, this is not good -- you're already mad when it crashes, then "We found a solution!" But, for me clicking on the link does nothing - no link even to adobe, just a tease - nothing opens.
It's bad enough crashing a couple times a day and losing work (I do save every chance I get), but then to get taunted with this bogus message, it's discouraging and exactly the best 'user experience' for a really expensive product from company that is all about helping professionals create good design/user experience ..
I like the way this is headed though! it just doesn't work right now.
