Hi,
Many (most) Jabber servers including GoogleTalk and Facebook use SSL to login to the servers.
In Messages > Preferences > Accounts > Jabber account > Server settings
The default port for SSL logins is port 5223 (it changes automatically when you click SSL).
You cannot change this Pane unless logged out of the server.
Most servers will not accept a login on the non SSL (port 5222) although it would appear you are at least being asked.
If the Account Info tab says the Account is Enabled then untick this to Log out.
Then go back to the Server Setting tab and turn on SSL

Even when I charge my Mac Pro to the full bar, the battery seems to be drained even when I am not using it. Example, after charging it full, i switched it on the next day and its 79% battery left. Is there something wrong? help please

Assuming you are disconnecting from line power, when you say switched on, do you mean it was shutdown or in sleep mode? If sleep mode the battery will still drain because sleep still keeps some things active and the battery does drain a little. However, to go from 100% to 79% charge overnight is a bit excessive in sleep mode. Unless you have some processes set to activate over night by the cron file and do things like backup the system.
What are the statistics on the battery, the apple in the upper left corner, About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware, Power...things like battery Condition, Capacity, remaining charge, voltage, current.

Something is using up all my data even when I'm not using apps. Help please!

Something is using up my data even when I'm not using any apps. Please help!

I turned off my mobile data and made no phonecalls or sent no text messages but 30 minutes later my phone credit was a euro less even though I had just topped up. I have had problems with my mobile data using up all of my network provider allowance and then the remaining balance on my phone. And this is even though I had not been using it much.

I am getting electric current type shocks whilst using my track pad on my macbook pro. This happens when it is both plugged in to charge and also unplugged. I am left with a constant type pain of prickly pins and needles even when I am not using it.

I have recently bought a Macbook pro and have noticed that I am getting an electric current running up my fingers when using the track pad. This happens when it is charging but most worryingly it happens when it is not plugged in. It leaves me with pins and needles type feeling in my hand and arm even when I am not using it. Also when I sit it on my lap I get the same electrical current in my legs and down to my feet.
Surely this cannot be what I should expect with an apple product?, has anyone else experienced this?.
Yesterday I couldn't bare to use it the current was so strong. I went out for the rest of the day and suffered with pins and prickly needles all day.

Two possible courses of action suggest themselves:
(1) Return your computer immediately to point of purchase and/or authorized service provider.
or
(2) Consult with your doctor about your neurological symptoms.

My iphone 5, with iOS 7.0.2, is heating and consuming the battery very fast when 3G is on, even when I'm not using it. Any solution?

My iphone 5, with iOS 7.0.2, is heating and consuming the battery very fast when 3G is on, even when I'm not using it. Any solution?

iOS 7 has many multiple tasks. You can save battery life to some extent by few steps. First go to location services and bettr 'Off' them which are not needed. (Ex. Notes.. Reminders.. Etc). Also you can off few apps in 'get notifications' centre. Also usage of 3g by any mobile consumes much battery life. Better to connect any Wi-fi

I keep getting "Reminders" that some web page cannot be opened, even when I'm not online or on the Internet, and I'd like to stop it.

For days now, a "Reminder" box pops up on my screen every few minutes. It's followed by whatever the date is. It always says that a Web page cannot be opened and to try various things, even though I'm not online or trying to open any page. I can get rid of it by opening the task manager (control, alt, delete), but it comes back in a few minutes. I tried "System Restore" but that's not working, for an unrelated reason. I'd like to stop this annoying reminder. Thanks.

Might be spyware or adware. You could try scanning for that and remove spyware if you find any.

Noobie - script trying to open classic when it's not needed

I need some help. I have written a short, simple script that I hope will work to open an index.htm file in a users default browser when it is run from a cd. I have a disk that basically contains a website with links on the disc and links to the web. Of course in windows I am using autorun to start the index file, but for Mac I am opening a finder window with an icon for this script so that the user has a clean interface and does not have to search for the index file.
The problem is that after compiling and testing my script it works fine, but when I save it as an app it tries to open Classic everytime. I don't want it to do this. This is for OS X only and it should be opening the file in Safari or Firefox so there is no need for classic.
In the Save As dialog box there is no check box to require classic it just automatically saves it that way. When I click on the saved app and choose "get info" is gives the filetype as "Application (classic)"
I am using Script Editor 2.1.1.
Here's the script:
try
tell application "Finder"
open file "BIB_5113:index.htm"
end tell
on error
beep
display dialog "Oops: " & "Please Insert your course CD and try again. " buttons {"OK"} default button 1
end try
Can someone please help, I have searched here, googled and posted at the MacScripter forums with no luck.
Thanks for your help.
K

OK, update - By saving as "Application Bundle" I now have the script working, somewhat. Now I need to know if and how I can get the script to see an invisable file. I am using Toast 7 to burn a Mac/PC disc and I have all of the files hidden. The script runs but it does not find the index.htm file.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Seahorse keeps asking about password, even when ssh-key is used

Hi,
I want easy access to my repos on bitbucket.
I have set my id_rsa.pub in bitbucket preferences, but when I try take any action on repo I have to type password .
First there is graphical popup menu to type password, when I cancel it I can type password in terminal.
error: unable to read askpass response from '/usr/lib/seahorse/seahorse-ssh-askpass'
Password for 'https://[email protected]':
I have tried set ssh-key for bitbucket on my raspberry pi, and it works properly (no password is needed).

I do not use Bitbucket, but I think this is similar to the issue with GitHub that I have noticed. Basically, when the url scheme of the remote is https:// , I am always asked for a password, but when there is no scheme (for github this is 'remote [email protected]:XXX/XXX') (or when the scheme is ssh:// , I assume), the ssh key is used.
I suggest you see whether you can use an alternate url scheme and see if it fixes the problem.
Hope this helps!

Why is my battery life so short? Like one day, even when I'm not using it.

I've had this I phone only a little over a month and hardly used it at all. The battery is lasting a shorter and shorter time. Now it's down to about a day and a half, even when only on standby.

You say you've had the phone a little over a month, but your profile says it's an iPhone 3G. Did you mean 3Gs? The iPhone 3G came out in 2008 and hasn't been sold in over a year. If you got it used, it's entirely possible the battery is losing its ability to hold a charge. They can only take so many charge cycles.

My pic 3 has suddenly started draining the battery in only a few hours even when I am not using it. Might this mean something is running all the time? I recently downloaded Dropbox. How do I check? What do I do about it? Or is battery faulty? Tim

My ipad 3 has suddenly started draining battery in only a few hours. Even if not in use. Might this be because a programme is running in he background? I recently downloaded Dropbox. Might my photos still be downloading after a few days? How do I check? What do I do about it? Or might my battery be faulty? Thanks, Tim.

Using the battery level meter in this manner is comparable to using your car's fuel gauge to calculate miles per gallon. The only thing that matters is the total amount of operating time from full charge to auto-shutdown.
Use the wall-mount charger that came with the iPad and charge overnight. Admittedly the labeling is hard to read but, if you use a magnifier and squint your eyes, you'll see "Output 5.1V, 2.1A." The symbol between volts and amps is the symbol for DC. Do NOT use an iPhone charger. Do NOT use an iPod charger. Then, operate it normally until auto shut-down (ignore any low level alerts that may appear). An irony is that doing that test to determine the total operating time is also the exact procedure necessary to calibrate the battery level meter.
I'm not claiming that you do not have a problem. I am stating, however, that we don't yet know whether or not a battery problem exists.
According to Apple:
Use Your iPad Regularly
For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
Elsewhere, Apple elaborates and explains that two half-discharges (or four quarter-discharges, etc.) equals one full discharge.

ITunes keeps trying to close, even when I am trying to update iphone

In the past few months, before the iOS7 update, my itunes began to randomly shutdown everytime I opened it. It could last for 5sec, it could last for 30secs. Ultimately it would close down. Not crash, but make it self shutdown. I am running Maverick, but it was happening with Mountain Lion. I have an iPhone 4, and Generation 1 ipad.
When I try to update the iOS on iphone, it will continue to give me a message asking "Are you sure you want to quit?"
If I was not updating. It would just shutdown. This it hard to back up.
I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the iTunes software 4x in the past few months.
Any Help??

Can anyone help me with this problem???

Can't unistall firefox keep saying it is open even when it is not

keeps telling me its open when its not it is keeping me from completing my on line course which is do today

No, but ITunes helper does??? Not sure where this is launched/closed from.

My computer tells me that Firefox is still open even when I can not see it. It will not allow me to open it to use.

I received an error message about a "spooler" and Firefox crashed. Ever since then I can not open Firefox but when I close down my computer it says Firefox is open. I have no access to Firefox

There are a few possible causes for that error, for details see [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]].

I have the latest version. Ever since I installed it, it keeps crashing for no aparent reason, even when I'm not using the computer.

Often, when I return to the computer after a break, Firefox has gone. Other times, it fails when I'm loading something else, e.g. Skype, but not every time. This has only happened since I upgraded.

A second generation iPod touch can't be updated past 4.2.1.

Battery life seems short
Click ( www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html) for tips on how to prolong iPhone's battery life.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
Connect iPhone to iTunes and restore iPhone.
If the screen shows a low-battery image, the battery is low on power and needs to charge for up to ten minutes before you can use it.
When charging iPhone, make sure to leave it charging until it is fully charged. You'll know the battery is fully charged when the battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen looks like this .
Note: When charging using a computer, don't connect iPhone to a keyboard. Also, the computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode. If iPhone is connected to a computer that's not turned on or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPhone battery may drain.
