Macbook doesn't seem to want to clear cache

So I have a client who has a Macbook and while we reset a font on our webpage for her it is stuck showing up as the old font. She cleared her cache, tried both Safari and Firefox to no luck. The same model macbook in our office shows the new font perfectly as does a MacBookPro and a windows machine. We assume it has to be something with her computer. We do not, however, have access to her actual machine. I want to give her more suggestions but am not sure what else to try...

Have you just cleared the browser cache... or have you cleared the font cache as well.
The free application Maintenance can quickly do this for you:

FontNuke will also work:

I tried to manually clear my Time Machine back up drive (a La Cie). But now the Trash is filled with files (over 130,000) and it doesn't seem to want to trash them - how do I get rid of them now in a quicker way?

10.1 doesn't seem to want to create proxy media

Now 10.1 doesn't seem to want to create proxying media.
Is this new?.
Will it ever create proxy media.?
Or is that only for like 4K cameras?
I used to create proxy media for everything I shot which is 1080.

My two Canon Vixias shoot AVCHD and my Canon DSLR shoots in .mov format.
I usually import all that I'm going to edit and then choose create proxy media.
10.1 did not create proxy media nor does it seem to when I ask it too.
Maybe with improvements, it doesn't feel a need, but before working in proxy improved the editing process and I'd just switch back to optimized media for output.

Downloading should be fairly easy and the installer opens but nothing seems to happen after that.
Help please!

What link, website? Firefox should not do that. Did you get FF from '''Mozilla.org?'''
It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or even add / mal-ware.
Look thru your add-ons list and make sure you know what each one is
there for. Also, check the programs that are on your computer
'''Windows > Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs.'''
'''(Mac: Open the "Applications" folder)'''
Go thru the list and use a web search to check any that you don't
know what they are.

A little lost here, view doesn't seem to want to show up

Hi,
First of all, let me say that i am not a iPhone or Mac developper although i'm a super good programmer that knows lots of languages (c/c++, java, c#, php, vb, vb.net, etc)
I was tasked to add a screen to an iphone app that asks for user acceptance of terms and then store the acceptance into the phone. I'm not even at the storage part yet, i'm all lost in that objective C thing... What kind of programming language is that... lol
Anyway, i tried my best and am able to open a view that was already existant in the system as the application starts. The same view, i duplicated it and renamed all its files, identifiers in the .h and .m file to a new name. I scoured the source code of the app to add the different variables or properties just as the previous view had been added to the app.
Compile, works, view never shows up... maybe i messed up something, try the older view i tried at first, still works... strange.
Here is a bit of code:
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {
[window addSubView:agreementView.view];
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
This portion of code doesn't work, but if i change "agreementView" for "hmView" it works fine and shows the view called HmView. The app compiles completly and works in all cases, its just the agreementView that never shows up.
Can you help me with this at all? Do i need to post anything else. Please keep in mind that i thought it would be super simple to do this and finaly, it's taken me 3h already to simply create a view and recompile the code.

this application is already multiview. I'm just trying to add a view in the code that shows an agreement ppl have to accept.
Ok, understood. It's sounding more and more like a modal view would be the best solution.
If i use the variable name of another view that was working, it loads up fine as the application starts.
Although you mentioned creating another view, it seems likely you didn't actually do so, or that the variable you assigned to the new view doesn't actually point to that view. You haven't mentioned Interface Builder yet. IB is the resource editor for Xcode, and is usually where Cocoa developers start when creating a new view (though new views can certainly be created in code without using IB).
Since you've been focusing on the root view so far (i.e., the view which is added directly to the window in applicationDidFinishLaunching), can we assume that you want the "agreement view" to be reached directly from the root view? Or, do you want agreementView to replace the current root view at start up? For example, do you want agreementView to be the gateway to the app, like a login screen, so that none of the app's functionality can be accessed until the agreement is accepted?
Once we know exactly how the agreement fits into the view hierarchy, it might be easy to walk you through the steps needed to create it, display it, and dismiss it. Another question that might help clarify your requirements: Could you use an "alert view" instead of a new, full-screen view for your purpose? An instance of the UIAlertView class is used just like a Windows "MessageBox" to display a message and wait for the user to respond. So an alert view would be good for obtaining a "yes" or "no" answer from the user. Of course, if the agreement screen needs to present the text of an agreement, much like the contract presented during an app installation, I guess you'd need a new full-screen view.
... if i use the new view i have created (from a copy of the one that works) and i adapt all the identifiers in the different copied files, then the app still compiles, but the reference to the view variable doesn't seem to work.
Here's an example of how to bring up a modal view that covers the root view at startup:
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application {
// add the root view to the window
[window addSubview:viewController.view];
// make a new view controller
// (this also makes a default view for the new controller)
UIViewController *myController = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
myController.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor];
// set the modal transition style of the new controller
myController.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCoverVertical;
// add a text view object to the new view
UITextView *myTextView = [[UITextView alloc]
initWithFrame:CGRectMake(36, 50, 248, 228)];
myTextView.editable = NO;
myTextView.showsVerticalScrollIndicator = YES;
[myController.view addSubview:myTextView];
[myTextView release];
// add something legal to the text view
NSString *legalText = [NSString string];
for (int i = 0; i < 40; i++)
legalText = [legalText
stringByAppendingString:@"Whereas, henceforth and notwithstanding.
myTextView.text = legalText;
// add a button to the new view
UIButton *myButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
myButton.frame = CGRectMake(124, 320, 72, 37);
[myButton setTitle:@"Agree" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[myController.view addSubview:myButton];
// connect the action of the button to a method in this file
[myButton addTarget:self action:@selector(dismissAgreement)
forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
// bring up the modal view as a child of the root view
[viewController presentModalViewController:myController animated:NO];
[myController release];
[window makeKeyAndVisible];
- (IBAction)dismissAgreement {
[viewController dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
To see how the example works, remove the current version of applicationDidFinishLaunching from the app delegate .m file, replace it with the two methods above, save the file and click Build and Go. The example is working, tested code which doesn't require any work in Interface Builder. Be sure to cut and paste directly from the forum to the source file. At this point you don't need to lose a day or two tracking down a syntax error.

New MacBook doesn't seem to like my Airport Express

Hi,
I just replaced my old PowerBook G4 (Aluminum) with a MacBook and it doesn't seem to play nicely with my Airport Express when it comes to AirTunes. I live in an apartment building and with my old machine I could see 4 or 5 networks but the new machine sees about 18 different networks (newer hardware, better antennas I guess) and AirTunes keeps dropping out. I also get rather random drops of the signal where my AirPort status in the OS goes to zero and I have to reconnect. It's frustrating!
I've tried adjusting the channel multiple times and I've used iStumbler to try and figure out what channel other networks are using and although I've found an unoccupied one (2 right now, other people seem to love 1, 6, and 12), AirTunes still drops out frequently (maybe 3-5 times every five minutes, usually in clusters). Interference Robustness is enabled.
Does anyone have ideas on how to improve the situation? I hate to throw hardware at the problem, but I'm even thinking about getting an Airport Extreme because maybe 802.11n will help the cause? (But will my AirTunes with Airport Extreme problem still exist?)
Any help is appreciated!
Airport Express Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Some times doing the support over the phone can be a little difficult. So just maybe visualizing the steps may help. Give it a try and see if it helps and its free, I have read your other post. here are the links:

Mac doesn't seem to want to be turned off

Processor 2 x 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon
Memory 3 GB 667 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM
Mac OS X 10.5.5
I've had my Mac Pro for 1,5 years now and I never really had any issues with it. But the last few days it's behaving strangly.
- When I try to turn off the computer, it doesn't respond.
- When I try to turn it off with the power button it goes to sleep in stead of turning off.
- When, this morning, I finally could turn it off with the power button, when I turned it on again, I got the message in the little black/transparant window: Please turn off your computer using the power button (or something similar).
- Also, (and this is happening for a few weeks now) when I try to turn it off, it looks like it's switched off, but it's just the screen getting black, and nothing responds anymore.
Anyone know what could be the cause?

I have had my computer for 1,5 years now, I know it will only shut down when I hold the button for a long time
And yes, the problem was that it didn't shut down from the apple menu shut down option. I'm sorry if I wasn't clear about that.

I bought a macbook pro from someone and want to clear all of the past persons stuff, how can I do that without a cd? specs macbook pro 8.1 with OS 10.6.6. early 2011 model. please help...

I have a macbook pro i bought from someone and I need to clear all this other persons info, i don't have a the cd by the way so thats the challenge I'm against. its a early 2011 macbook pro 8.1 and it has 10.6.6 snow leopard on it and i would like to get it to mountain lion but didn't know if downloading that would clear the memory as well? any ideas?...

1: Backup any data off the machine. Download the free MacTracker
2: Apple menu > About this Mac > More Info > Macbook Pro 3,1 or like model number, punch it into Mactracker.
3: Find out what OS X version came originally on your machine. how far you can go.
Things to consider before upgrading OS X
4: Inexpensive. $ If < 10.6.3, then order the 10.6.3 disks by calling Apple via phone.
5: More money $$. If > 10.6.2 then call Apple ia phone for the machine specific versions as the 10.6.3 retail version won't work.
6: Follow these links to wipe and install
How do I securely delete data from the machine?
How to erase and install Snow Leopard 10.6
7: Run Software update to get to 10.6.8
8: Check hardware requirements for 10.7 or 10.8 using MacTracker , install more RAM if need be. $$$$.
9: Optional, more $$$. Run AppStore and install 10.8, or call Apple for 10.7 (better stay on 10.6 if 10.7 is the best you can do)
Must follow about using the disks to wipe the machine of previous owners data squirreled all over the thing.
Only thing "free" is the advice.

Slow internet speeds on Macbook - don't want to clear cache

Hello,
Whoever can help me will go a long way with relations with my boss.
He is the only one in the office on a Macbook, and experiences slow internet spees when no-one else does. One thing to note is that he uses Sugar CRM web-based program constantly.
Clearing the cache will speed things up initially, but shortly after it slows right down again so that is not a solution that is helpful.
Looking forward to some creative responses.

HT204350 Why does the"Looking for source..." message go on FOREVER? The macbook doesn't seem to recognize my hard drive!

I'm migrating a new 15" Macbook Pro with retina display - using Time Machine.
I've started Migration Assistant on the new mac and selected to transfer info from Time Machine.
After I click continue, I get a "Looking for source..." message that goes on FOREVER.
My hard drive is connected to my new macbook with a USB cable.
(I'm migrating this way because I don't have a Thunderbolt adapter.)
What am I doing wrong? Has this happened to anyone else?

I'm having the same problem. I checked the hard drive and it shows backups done earlier today but Migration Assistant just shows the spinning gear with "Looking for source . . ."

Sallie Mae doesn't seem to want to grow with me. Anybody else have this problem?

I have had my Sallie Mae card since January. They gave me a startiing limit of $500. I have done a credit limit increase request and was offered $300. I felt insulted so I declined lol. I don't understand why they aren't offering a more reasonable increase. I am below 10% utilization on all my cards with many having a 0 balance. I have no new credit lines, no new inquiries. With the limits I have on other cards, I just don't get it. I am thinking of just closing the card rather than wasting another hard pull. If I am going to do a hard pull, I would rather it be on a new card with someone else. Any opinions or ideas?

I need to get my mind checked out or something. ^^^^ This kind of stuff seems to really bother me and I can't figure out why. I know one could rationalize it as playing the game....but I am sorry...there aint a person in this world that should have to open another account with the same dang bank, combine limits, strictly for a larger CL. That is ridiculous. This should not have to happen. I would give this crazy card one last hoorah. I would use it for almost everything, pay that sucker off multiple times per week, and do this for 2 months, maybe 3. Then if they wont raise you, then just use it strictly for the rewards and only use it for gas/groceries/amazon. Leave it in your glove box. I get that OP has a limit of 10k with amex and this seems small...that would be very frustrating to me too. I gotta say tho, I have NEVER been a fan of anything barclay until I discovered their ring. They cap their rewards WAY WAY WAY too low, the card is geared for students and maybe some more frugal spenders. I dunno I get better deals with gas gift cards and my other cards so I don't have a need for it. That ring tho, the ability to go get cash and deal with moving it around later, for a buck, that is crazy awesome! I would try to keep this card a little longer and change it to the ring once your limit is higher. But thats just me.
