Is it possible to use a News Reader

I would like to be able to read these forums via a Thunder bird or a news reader? Is this possible and if so what is the site address?
Thanks

I completely agree. Granted some of this lost functionality may be my own lack of understanding on how to completely configure this. With a news group I put in the link to the news groups, See the entire list of forums and check the ones I want to join, then I can select to download the entire history of each of the groups, bam I'm done. They are neatly organized and threaded easy to search and they are separate from my daily email. I keep thunder bird up all day long and all I have to do is click on a forum and in 5 seconds it updates all activity in that forum.
With the RSS feeds I have to go to each forum and select the RSS button to join it. This then sends every message to my email account which I don't want (I use a web client to check my email and thunderbird for news groups) and it also shows up in thunderbird under a Blogs & News Feeds. None of these messages are threaded, although this may be a Thunderbird issue. RSS seems fine if you have an issue and you want to immediately be notified if someone has replied to your issue.
I wish News readers were the defacto standard it would be wonderful to just open up thunderbird and have all of my forums in one place rather than having every vendor have a different web interface you need to learn and having to remember seperate user names and password and my favorite is when I have to type in S$88AX12FP etc. just to reply to some thread. Or you have to give people points or you have to select if the question has been answered.

  • Is it possible to use a new iMAC 2011 (with thunderbolt port) as a passive screen with a Macbook (MacBook5,1 - End 2008) ?

    s it possible to use a new iMAC 2011 (with thunderbolt port) as a passive screen with a Macbook (MacBook5,1 - End 2008) ?

    No, you would need to upgrade the MacBook to a 2011 MacBook Pro that also has Thunderbolt.

  • I bought an iPhone 5 so i could have the possibility to use the new 4G network here in Belgium, now my provider tells me that they can't give me 4G on my iPhone 5 (any other one yes),they say because Apple blocks the use of 4G on the iPhone's here

    After buying a iPhone 5 and iPad mini, and now thinking of buying the 5S and the mini retina, I just changed to an other provider who had a much better deal for a subscription, also one of the first who offers here 4G, now just starting with my new provider and curious how the 4G connection will be, whatever I did I could not get it to work on 4G, now my provider tells me that Apple is blocking all the iPhones here to be able to work with 4G, and they let them work with 4G on only one provider here ( that's very expensive ). I was wondering if this is true or if anyone has the same experience.

    The Belgium 4G networks supported by the iPhone 5 are Mobistar and Telenet.  The other carriers's networks have yet to be approved by Apple.    Perhaps their networks are not up to Apple's standards and again, perhaps, the approval will come in the future.
    In the meantime, you can only receive 4G services from either Mobistar or Telenet.

  • Is it possible to use a new battery for a MBP 15" in a MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2008) ?

    i have an old  MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2008) and my battery is as close to dead as it can be. I was wondering if I could replace it for a new battery that works for the latest models.

    No, that's a 60 watt. You need an 85 watt.

  • Possibility to use new Mac mini with an USB-DAC?

    Anybody knowing anything about the possibility to use the new Mac mini with an USB-DAC. My reason for the question is that I've heard that USB3 doesn't handle sound. I'm thinking about to buy a mac mini and use it as an HTPC and signalsource together with NAIM DAC-V1.
    // Rode orm

    What I have heard that there are a few USB2 audio devices that
    have had some issues with USB3, but USB3 itself is supposedly
    backward compatible to USB2.
    I would check with the makers of the DAC to see if there are any
    USB3 issues.

  • Is it possible to use LiveCycle ES3/ES4 with JBoss 6/7?

    Currently we are using a JBoss 4.0.3 to create PDF forms with LiveCycle ES. We would like to evaluate if we can upgrade the whole environment. Therefore I would like to know if it is possible to use the new versions ES3/4 with a current JBoss 6/7?
    I also would like to know if it is possibile to use a Java version like 6 or 7. Currently we are using Java 5.
    I don't found any of these information on adobe's website.
    EDIT:
    Is there nobody who can answer this question? Which versions LifeCycle/JBoss/Java you are using?

    ES3/4 with Java 6.  Our TAM said No for Java7.
    here is the supported platforms for ES3 SP2.
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/10.0/supported_platforms.html
    We just upgraded from ES (8.2) to ES3 SP2 (10.0.4) recently.  We also went from jboss 4.2. to 5.1 and java 1.5 to 1.6.

  • Old ISBN used for New Titles MM to CO - Int Order - Amoratization Query

    Dear Gurus
    Kindly need some assistance on the issue, now sure if its the right forum - Regarding transferring Production order to CO Order Int Order Amoratisation Query.
    The business have unfortunately reused over 40 material when they should have created new ones.
    From an MM viewpoint it is not advised reusing materials. New material numbers should have been created. However as stock has now been receipted and sold it is not possible to use a new material number.
    These materials originally had stock transferred from other materials onto batch and valuation 01. This was fully sold but now the Business have re used the materials with a new description and a new Production Order created.
    Because stock was previously transferred onto batch 01  via - old prod order it appears the business have created the Production orders for batch 02 which has been Goods receipted against. However the business have added the costs to an Internal order batch 01 not 02.
    So essentially our batch and valuation numbers for the production order and internal order are out of sync. Would this cause a problem.
    I believe the Business want to know if the goods receipt they have done against Production order 02 viewed via MMBE - Stock Balances will trigger the amortisation of the costs on First cost order 01 Internal Order.
    Because the production has already been sold and GR, we will need to look for a solution going forward, so the business does not encounter this problem again.
    Thanks

  • Using Orchestrator to read ConfigMgr collection then move AD accounts

    Is it possible to use Orchestrator to read a ConfigMgr computer collection or maybe boundary group, then based on that read move the corresponding computer accounts in AD to a specified OU?  What I am ultimately trying to accomplish is to move AD
    computer accounts for machines on a specific subnet into a specified OU.  I know this could probably be scripted.  But, I'd like to know if it's possible through the method I described, and how it would be done?

    So, now I have another issue.  I have the workflow setup.  But it keeps moving computers that are not part of the Config Man collection.  When I put the runbook through the tester and do the step through it gets the exact number of computers
    from the collection in the "Get Computer"step.  But, when the workflow proceeds to the "Move Computer" step it starts moving computers totally unrelated.  I have the Include filter on the link between "Get Computer"
    and "Move Computer" set to "Get Computers returns success".  I tried setting up Exclude filters on the Links.  But, that does not resolve the issue.

  • I have Iphone 4s, and the phone will activate itself again. How do I get changed Apple ID on my phone so that I get using the new username and password that is verified? I would like an answer as soon as possible ... Thank you very much.

    I have Iphone 4s, and the phone will activate itself again. This I have verified, but when I shall put this onto my phone, so the phone will not approve the newusername and password. How do I get changed Apple ID on my phone so that I get using the new username and password that is verified? Silly to buy a new phone just for this .... The phone is almost three years old. How long can weexpect this to last? I would like an answer as soon as possible ... Thank you very much.

    It sounds like your device might be in Activation Lock.  Is it asking your to enter in an Apple ID & password, but only showing you the first letter of the email address and then some dots? Example: j•••••@icloud.com?
    If so, do you recognize that email?  Do you have an Apple ID that fits the same format?  If so, then go to www.cloud.com, log in with that Apple ID & password, and see if under Find My iPhone it shows this device.  If so, turn off the device, then remove the device from the list.

  • Is it possible to use the Study Cards feature in iBooks without the special new .iBooks format?

    The all new iBooks 2 has been released today, with quite a compelling array of features for students. I've watched a few videos, among those the introducory video from Apple, and one of the features that appealed to me most is the Study Cards feature, which uses notes you've created to generate study cards you can practise with.
    Now, I have a bunch of .ePub books, most of which are annotated and have notes. To my surprise (and a tiny bit of frustration) however, I wasn't able to find the button to activate Study Cards.
    I've tried to make a book myself using the also newly released iBooks Author application, and found that with the new book it indeed is possible to use the notes.
    Is there any way to make Study Cards available for .ePub books as well?

    I was thinking, perhaps there's a way to import ePub files into the iBook Author software, and thus create an iBooks format that enables the use of Study Cards.
    I haven't found an easy way to do so yet, though. Perhaps some authors with more experience could share their methods of converting their published books to this new format, so we can try to do it with our own (DRM free) ebooks?

  • Is it possible to use a USB hub on a new MacBook Pro with Maverickss?

    I have used a powered Q-Store USB2 hub on first my old trust MacBook with the 13 inch screen running System X.6.8 for years; then I switched it over to my new 13 In. MacBook Pro (non retina) with Mavericks X.9.2 and it still works great. It is powered and seems to run a full load including USB hard drives, camera when wanted, cooling pad with fan, printer/scanner/copier combo, charging a MP3 player or Galaxy S4, apple mouse and keyboard, all with no trouble and no drop outs. I let an old Firewire 400 or 800 hard disk stay with my old Macintosh for now as it mirrors it, but sometimes hook it up with no problem except it gets hot.
    I have a new USB3  WD Passport 3 hard drive and a 32 gb USB 3 memory stick. I wanted to put these on a USB3 hub and use one of the ports for the faster items. I can run either my WD My Passport 3 Gb drive that I use to mirror my internal drive as long as it is alone. I can also plug a 32 gb A Data memory stick in fine alone except things get a bit snug, and there's no more room on the USB 2 hub for the memory stick. If I do not use a hub for the one port I have to either use the Hard Drive or the memory stick, not both. I was using the memory stick to port files back and forth between my old and new computers at least for a while. The USB 3 peripherals work reliably when plugged in alone, but the moment a hub gets in the picture even if only one item is plugged into it, things drop in and out. It does not matter if it is the powered USB 3 hub or the non-powered Anker USB 3 4 port hub. The USB 2 items simply work but the USB 3 ones only work alone. I have looked at the power specifications. It seems like one hard drive uses all of the power the hub can put out.
    It looks like the USB 3 is rather limited on Macintosh computers is all I can conclude. There may be extra speed, but what good is it if you can only run one peripheral at a time? It seems like even a hub stresses it unless it is a hub and a memory stick or two. I even changed to system settings to keep my hard drives from going to sleep, but still it drops out randomly if hooked to a hub and runs perfectly when plugged in directly. I had hoped to use it for an emergency start up disk if needed, though I must say the rather incredible StoreEdge Micro SDX card works great for that purpose and seems to belong.
    That old USB 2 hub, even with a smaller one plugged in with 2 portable hard drives still works flawlessly on the other port and never drops out.
    I have not tested the Firewire 800 port long enough to decide, except it gets hot if it reads very long.. The old Firewire 800 / USB 2 hard disk has more than one port on it unlike so many today. I had to use a Firewire 800 to 400 cable for my old computer. Anyway it works in either computer and stays mounted even when asleep.
    Is it possible to use a USB 3 hub with more than one peripheral on a 2012-2013 13 inch MacBook Pro computer with Mavericks? If so which one works? It cannot be good for hard disks to randomly disconnect and reconnect without being dragged to the trash.

    no you can't - you have to upgrade it to 16GB yourself.
    you can get your RAM from newegg.com, macsales.com.
    the RAM you need is 16GB (8GBX2) DDR3 1600MHz DDR3.
    upgrading the RAM yourself will not void your warranty.
    you need a #00 Phillips Screwdriver - 10 screws at the bottom - 7 long ones and 3 short ones - just remember where they go when you put the screws back in.

  • Is it possible to use an existing imac (2009) as a monitor for a new mini

    Does anyone know if it's possible to use an existing imac as a monitor for a new mac mini?

    Unless it's a late 2009 27-inch iMac, all of the ways of doing it require an existing network connection, which requires a standalone monitor.

  • Im completely new to Mac. Im swapping my windows laptop for macbook pro and looking for network storage solution which the Time Capsule seems to do. Is it possible to use this as NAS for my desktop Windows PC - windows 7

    Im completely new to Mac. Im swapping my windows laptop for macbook pro and looking for network storage solution which the Time Capsule seems to do. Is it possible to use this as NAS for my desktop Windows PC - windows 7

    Broadly speaking I want some sort of network storage( wireless or through my existing wifi router) that I can access files for both my windows PC and Macbook and also to access files to my iPad/ iPhone. Some sort of backup and sychronisation so that I can access certain files remotely.
    Buy a real NAS.. synology or QNAP are the standard... although companies like Netgear and Western Digital and Seagate make them as well.
    There is no problem sharing between Mac and PC now.. you do not even need a NAS to do that.. you simply share the hard disk directly. Mac talk SMB.. everything talks SMB nowadays.. so it is easy.
    ipad and iphone are not designed to use NAS.. they are designed to backup only to the cloud or itunes.. but you can load an app like file browser if you want.
    http://www.stratospherix.com/products/filebrowser/
    Remote access to the Apple TC is somewhere between difficult, to impossible from a PC.. Apple use BTMM and iCloud but the service is not offered to PC.
    A real NAS will offer HTTPS or SFTP or several other methods.. that both Mac and PC can use.
    You simply plug it into the current wireless router.. it is a network device and assessable over the network. It is not necessary to buy another router.. in fact that is a waste.
