Need help with LaCie d2 and back-ups

I have a new MacBook running 10.4.9 and a Flat Panel iMac running 10.3.9 and 9.2.2 (for a couple of old games). Today I updated my LaCie firmware with the hopes of backing up my MacBook. The 120 GB LaCie has 4 partitions, 1 empty, 2 with 10.3.9 backups and one with a 9.2.2 backup. My plan was to erase the LaCie and repartition so that I would have 3 partitions: one for 10.4.9, one for 10.3.9 and one for 9.2.2. My flatpanel recognizes the LaCie volumes as bootable (they show up when I start while holding down the option key and I can see them in System Preferenes as start-up disks). My MacBook mounts the LaCie volumes, I can see them in disk utitility but they do not show up when I hold down the option key nor can I see them in System Preferences as start up disks. Is this normal? Will my 3 partition plan work? In order to backup my MacBook would I just need to start up from the Tiger CD and then use disk utility to clone a copy? I have read about SuperDuper and have it on my MacBook but I wouldn't be able to use that if booted from the CD, right?
As you can tell, I am a very BASIC Mac user, so please talk down to me. I am NERVOUS about wiping my LaCie--like working without a net! I also want to repartition my flat panel to 2 partitions rather than 3, if I ever get this figured out.
TIA for your patience and help.

Just a couple of things. A bootable OS needs to be installed on a volume/partition before it appears in Startup Disk. Additinally, you'll need to partition the LaCie with the MacBook, since Panther's Disk Utility doesn't know anything about the required GUID partition map scheme. Finally, note that Panther and OS 9 can't use the GUID scheme. The See my post at http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4511447 for details.

Need help with Airport Express and so on.

Ok so my main problem before getting into what I need help with here is that our MacBooks and now my iPhone 6 plus isn't staying online. Keep getting booted off and then I either have to select the network again or it will eventually go back on. If anyone has a solution or so please feel free to answer that as well. I'm running on Roadrunner with a Netgear 600 wireless router and a motorola modem. Both of which I'll leave the link to below for a better look.
My Main Question: So I'm looking at a new wireless router mainly and possibly a new modem. I know Apple products are trustworthy but how good is the Airport Express and other Airport products. Also what is the Maximum speed and Maximum data speed for the cheapest express station and if anyone knows the speeds of the other devices it would be greatly appreciated.

DSL Router to Netgear 5-port Switch and I used the switch to connect to Airport Extreme, TV, Blue-Ray DVD player and DirecTV Receiver.
The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) is a router so it will do what you need.
You need to reconfigure your setup. Connect the WAN port of the AEBS to the DSL router. Then connect the Netgear switch to one of the LAN ports on the AEBS. The AEBS will properly share the connection.

Need help with Page Layout and Background Scaling

hello, everyone.
I am in the process of designing a new website for myself,
and while I was researching nicely designed pages to use as
inspiration, I stumbled upon this site:
http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/
obviously, the design is very impressive, but it also
incorporates a lot of web mechanics that I have been trying to
figure out, so I will use this page as an example.
one thing I need help with is backgrounds. as you can see in
the posted website, the creator used a seamlessly tiled paper
texture to display the bulk of his content on. also make not of the
pattern that is located to the left of the paper texture. how do I
create seamless backgrounds like this that will scale to fit any
amount of content or any resolution? I can't imagine that the guy
that made that site created a new size background every time he
made an update, so there has to be an easier way.
the second thing that I am having trouble with is general
site layout. I have read that most sites used series of invisible
tables to organize there content, but when I open the source of
this page in dreamweaver, he was using something different. div
tags? should I be using these? who do I use them? are there any
general layout tips that someone could pass on to me? perhaps a
link to a good tutorial?
please help me. i am very confused.
thanks so much.

IMO not a good site to emulate. To wit:
Top background image:
http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/images/bg-top.jpg;
745px
x 350px 137K
Main background image:
http://www.jeffsarmiento.com/images/bg-tile.jpg;
745px x 950px 130K
Total page size: 454K (Check here:
www.websiteoptimization.com)
Website usability experts routinely recommend a maximum page
size of ~80K
Check out the We We Scale @ www.FutureNowInc.com/wewe/ where
they suggest,
"You speak about yourself approximately 0,003 times as often
as you speak
about your customers. Might that have an impact on your
effectiveness?"
That is 100% consistent with the #1 Web Design mistake:
"Believing people
care about you and your web site." or to phrase more
expansively, "Our site
tries to tell you how wonderful we are as a company, but not
how we're going
to solve your problems."
www.sitepoint.com has some excellent books on making a
website actually
attractive and usable at the same time.

Need help with show/hide and layers moving

I'm more of a designer, so I don't know code or CSS well at
all. I'm doing an online portfolio for a class and need help with
layers not staying in place in different browsers. The portfolio is
created with a table, but I wanted to use the show/hide function
for thumbnails of work. Are layers the only way you can use this
function? I read layers don't work well with tables, so how else
can I make it so when you mouse over a thumbnail, the larger image
appears in another cell?

> I don't know code or CSS well at all.
That's unfortunate.
> layers not staying in place in different browsers.
Layers don't move. But the rest of your page does.
Before you get too wrapped up in layers, though, please read
this -
http://www.great-web-sights.com/g_layerlaws.asp
They are not good when be used as a primary layout method.
> I read layers don't work well with tables
They work fine with tables - but you have to understand both
tables and
layers to use them.
Why not show us your page, so we can see what you are
struggling with?

Need help with Apps misbehaving and upgrading the MacOS: The all-in-one post. ;)

Hi there,
So, I've been browsing the SL and Mavericks forums for the last days but although I have fetched some useful tips and answers, still need some help. Let me put it diary-style so I can be more concise ;)
Here's my current system profile:
iMac 27" (aluminium back- if I'm no wrong, from around late 2009-mid 2010)
MacOS 10.6.1 Never updated.
3.06 Ghz Intel Core2 Duo
4Gb RAM
LaCie Big Disk via FireWire 800
Internet access via Ethernet port (cable)
And here's The Issues Log:
– Day one: First ever Kernel Panic. Restart. Nothing (apparently) wrong.
– 3 weeks elapsed: Second Kernel Panic. Same. iMac restarts fine. Apps fine. No missing files. No misbehaviour experiences.
– After a month or so: One morning, Skype decides on its own to stop launching. The night before, I chatted with one of my clients, fine as always, but at the next day, nothing. Computer is usually shut off for the night. And so it was that night. Updated Skype and also did all the guest account trick / repaired permissions / repair ACLs. Nothing worked. Overwrote the Skype app with a former functioning version I have in an MacOS 10.5 system. Didn't work. Now I have to chat on the MacOS 10.5 computer. No good.
– 15 days ago or so: After realising that I no longer have my HP1515n printer (it ran out of inks and thrashed it. It costs more to refill than to buy a new one), I deleted the printer from the printers list in the System Prefs Pane.
– Last week: Acrobat (CS4) won't launch a PDF file and freezes. Spinning beach ball. Force quit and try opening the PDF file again. Freezes again. And again. And again. With that file and every other PDF.
Photoshop CS5 fails to open or crashes when attempting to open any jpg or tiff file. InDesign and Illustrator CS5 are frozen and had to force quit both. MacOS 10.5
Restart the iMac thinking it is just a "common" bad day and hoping everything will be alright after the restart, but nope.
Not only the CS5 stops working; MSOffice stops working too. Spinning beach ball. Begin to suspect of the deletion of the printer, however, I also deleted the same printer in the above mentioned 10.5 system and I'm not experiencing anything strange. Reinstalled the HP drivers but nothing remarkable happens.
Then, try to uninstall CS5, CS4, Office, etc. Try to reinstall Acrobat CS4 and the CS5 apps. Reinstall Office. Nothing. Just Outlook works.
Since I had to desperately meet deadlines, convinced a colleague to come over to the studio and -I know, I know- allowed me to install a copy of CS6. It seems to work fine, except for Acrobat, which randomly freezes/hangs/works and Photoshop, which works fine unless you want to open a layered file containing text layers or if you want to type text on a normal file, because it freezes as soon as the Text Tool is pressed in the toolbar, of course, spinning beach ball again.
Well, Illustrator CS6 sometimes shows a strange black thin frame overlaid on the interface but goes away by switching to another workspace and then back to the current. InDesign CS6 seems to be fine and making PDFs as expected. However, as I said before, it is pure luck if Acrobat accepts to open the file or even if it launches. Spinning beach ball when freezing/hanging.
As a method for eliminating possible culprits, did a clean up of the Suitcase Fusion database, removed duplicate and a few (less than 10) corrupted fonts.
Removed completely MSOffice reinstalled and updated. Nothing. Now I neither have MSoffice running.
I am no rookie but I can't even imagine what can cause such amount of misbehaviour, (kernel panics have something to do? malware? lack of system updates? MacHD is damaged?) so I'm thinking of a few scenarios:
Backing up my projects and user folder –anything else to backup? (In fact I've already done that)– and:
1. Do a clean install. Not sure if it will be best to completely erase the whole drive or if a standard reinstallation will be enough.
2. Take the machine to a Genius Bar to see if there's anything that can be done without major OS messes.
3. Erase the drive and go through the Mavericks upgrading (SL to Ln to MLn to Mavcks), although not sure if this upgrade is worth yet.
4. Replace HD for a brand new one and either step 1 or 3.
5. As a complement, I'm thinking of adding more RAM.
Well. It is really the first time I don't know what to do. I have work to do and would not want to face a week away from my main computer and since most of the files are CS5-6 and hence, can't move to my wife's iMac...
Apologies if this post feels too long, but I will truly appreciate any kind of input and advice on one of more of the issues mentioned in this post.
And if it fits best in any other forum, please also let me know.
Cheers and thanks in advantage.

FCP Novice needs help with video quality and FCP 5!!

Hi,
I have a real problme that I cannot seem to fix. I think its because I am doing something really wrong!
I have a Sony HC42E MiniDV Camcorder which by default records video in full widescreen. I recorded several tapes this way and have now begun trying to edit them in FCP 5.04 (Tiger 10.4.6). Whenever I log and capture my clips they appear to be fuzzzy and unclear on the Mac monitor whilst being totally crisp and sharp on the camcorder viewfinder. I tried capturing using the DV PAL 48Khz Anamorphic Preset which keeps everything the right size (the final output needs to be true widescreen and not with black bars added) but the resulting video on screen is blurry and bitty. I then tried capturing using the DV PAL 720 x 576 normal preset and the video is a little clearer on the screen (for both presets I have chosen lower field dominance) but when I play back it plays back in widescreen on the mac canvas window but at 4:3 on the camera's viewfinder.
I then assumed that maybe this is just becuase the mac screen (CRT by the way) doesn't use fields. So I exported the sequence as a QT movie using DV PAL 16:9 and used quicktime (OS9 Classic - my compressor has never worked because of the dreaded "unable to connect to baackground process" problem which I've never managed to correct) to convert it to MPEG2. When I import this as an asset into DVD Studio pro 4 and set the track size to 16:9 it comes through at the right aspect ratio. However it looks blurry on screen. Thinking that this will be fine on a TV I burned the disc - inserted it into my DVD player (a good one!) and watched it on my new 32" widescreen TV (a good one!) and the picture qualitty is poor. Its so much blurrier and bittier than the original footage looks when played through the camcorder's viewfinder!
The final footaage looks like an old VHS recording that's a year or two old!
Does anyone know how I can capture my footage in FCP with the maximum quality, edit it without quality loss and the export it for DVD again without such significant quality loss whilst all the time keeping it at proper 16:9 widescreen?
Is there some presets I should be working to?
I'm tearing my hair out! Help!

Hi Guys,
thanx for your replies.
here's the latest:
Brian, I followed your instructions and the DVD burned successfully. However the video quality of the dvd when viewed on my TV ('ve tried on all 3 of my tvs now) is still a lot poorer than the quicktime movie that was imported into DVDSP4. When I play the original QT Movie on my Mac CRT monitor it looks a little blurry and grainy because I guess its non interlaced however when viewed on an external Video monitor it looks great - very sharp.
When I view the burned DVD on my television the picture quality looks like the non interlaced version of the original QT Movie that appeared on my Mac CRT and not the sharp interlaced (lower field) version that appeared on my external video monitor.
Its almost like taking a sharp jpeg into Photoshop and applying a gaussian blur of about 0.3 followed by jepg compression compressing it down to 5% quality!
I'm totally mystified. Can the conversion to Mpeg2 be removing all interlacing so that you get the less sharp computer monitor look? I just want the video on my final DVDs to be as good as the original source footage! I appreciate that along the way there might be loss of some quality but surely not that much?
Does this make sense to you guys or am I still doing something very wrong?
Robert: I have tried setting all manner of drives including a fresh external firewire HD with nothing on it (clean out of the box) but it doesn't seem to help.
Brian: I tried the no network suggestion a few months back but I'm not sure if I got it right. At the moment I have broadband through an external speedtouch usb modem and am also connected (occasionally although not for the last 3 months) via a crossover cable to my PCs ethernet card. When I last tried the No Network solution I had immense trouble getting my internet to work again! Can you please help me by directing me to the best ay to do this while protecting my internet settings?
any more help guys would be greatfully appreciated.

Need help with image gallery and preloader

Here is my portfolio site currently. WWW.PALMEI.COM. When you go into the the galleries you can view the images; the images load and it's all working fine. But if I was to go back on the page before the image was to load the image loads later which is then in the way of everything and cannot be deleted or removed. What would a solution be for solving this problem. Also, my preloader is not working at all as you can tell.
Here is my code in frame 1 for the perloader:
[AS]
stop();
loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, updatePreLoader);
function updatePreLoader(evtObj:ProgressEvent):void
                    var percent:Number = Math.floor((evtObj.bytesLoaded*100)/evtObj.bytesTotal);
                    preloader_txt.text = percent+"%";
                              if (percent==100) {
                                        nextFrame ();

Need help with Boot Camp and Win 7

I have iMac 27" (iMac11,1) 2.8 GHz, quad core, 8MB of L3, 8GB of Memory, Boot ROM Version IM111.0034.B02 and SMC Version 1.54f36 and can't get this machine to run Windows 7 using Boot Camp. I have successfully loaded Win 7 but when it claims to be starting I only get a black screen after initial start up.
I have checked and rechecked my software updates and have read and reread the instructions, however, I can't update my Boot Camp to 3.1 (my machine says i'm running 3.0.4) and I need 3.1 but can't load 3.1 because it is an exe file that has to be loaded into Windows after I load Windows but can't open Windows because I can't load Boot Camp 3.1. That's my excuse anyway, so I'm missing something I just can't figure out what it is....this is where you come in!
Thanks.
Mike

Mike,
I'm not going to be much help with Boot Camp however I can direct you to the Boot Camp forum where there are more people that know how to troubleshoot it and Windoze 7. You can find it at:

Windows 8.1 need help with Windows Updates and Start menu Or fix my old Windows Xp system

My beloved windows Xp has gave up after many years of working well. It stopped working a few days ago after a lightening strike.
I got this Windows 8.1 computer a few month ago but it seems to have a problem. I stopped using it after could not get start menu to work and when back to my Windows XP system.
First problem is the start menu is not there. I tried installing something and it says it will take control or something and screen goes black. I clicked canceled quickly in order not to get a virus.
Where is the start menu?
Second problem, Windows updates does not want to update because it needs Windows 8.1 update. This computer is already Windows 8.1. There I canceled it since it was mostly a virus. Now updates are not working.
If those can not be fixed, how can i fix my Windows Xp to get it back. It does not turn on, I press button and nothing happens. Is this something easy to fix?

Another user discovers that Windows 8.1 is not at all of what it should be.
There is no Start Menu in Windows 8 or 8.1. However, you can restore your desktop start menu with a very good freeware application:
Classic Shell
Windows Update comes with Windows 8.1. There is nothing special you have to do.
It kind of sounds like you've been a bit too quick to download and run whatever you find on the Internet. You should always research any software you're considering downloading/installing ahead of time. Google it. See what others say
about it. Ask on forums. In order to use Windows effectively and safely you need to expand your knowledge and become a more sophisticated user.
If you think your new system has become infected, you might want to consider Refreshing or Resetting it to a clean state, or at least visiting one of the anti-malware forums and getting some advice on cleaning it up. But beware, a lot
of "blind leading the blind" happens on forums. Always try to read between the lines, and question what people say.
You could consider leaving XP behind. Its time has come and gone, and pretty much any newer version of Windows can actually give you better service than XP - once you get it tuned up.
It's possible to make Windows 8.1 more functional than XP and about as functional as Windows 7, but it takes a fair bit of effort in reconfiguration and installation of some well-known 3rd party applications that are good (which, unfortunately, most
on the internet are not).
Good luck to you.

Need help with load balancing and DNS proxy

Hi,
I need help on how to configure my router so it will work with my DNS proxy and load balancing.
I have a Linksys LRT224 router. I have two broadband connections from two separate ISPs,500Mbps each (WAN1 & WAN2). WAN1 has a static IP and WAN2 is dynamic assigned. I use Unlocator (www.unlocator.com) so I can access geographically restricted sites (Pandora, Netflix, etc.).
The problem I have is that unlocator registers only one IP address (WAN1 address) and since I am doing load balancing I have no way of knowing if the DNS request will go through the registered IP (WAN1) or through the other (WAN2). I am not an expert in routing or networking but I'm guessing I have a way of configuring the router so all the DNS requests go out through WAN1, right?
In the router's Dual WAN config page there is a section for Protocol Binding. I tried to configure but only managed to screw up the internet at home. I used:
DNS[UDP/53-53]->192.168.1.1-192.168.1.254(0.0.0.0-0.0.0.0)WAN2
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

Good solution though. That's probably the only way you could do true Load Balancing anyway.

Need help with load balancing and DNS proxy -Repost

Hi,
I need help on how to configure my router so it will work with my DNS proxy and load balancing.
I have a Linksys LRT224 router. I have two broadband connections from two separate ISPs,500Mbps each (WAN1 & WAN2). WAN1 has a static IP and WAN2 is dynamic assigned. I use Unlocator (www.unlocator.com) so I can access geographically restricted sites (Pandora, Netflix, etc.).
The problem I have is that unlocator registers only one IP address (WAN1 address) and since I am doing load balancing I have no way of knowing if the DNS request will go through the registered IP (WAN1) or through the other (WAN2). I am not an expert in routing or networking but I'm guessing I have a way of configuring the router so all the DNS requests go out through WAN1, right?
In the router's Dual WAN config page there is a section for Protocol Binding. I tried to configure but only managed to screw up the internet at home. I used:
DNS[UDP/53-53]->192.168.1.1-192.168.1.254(0.0.0.0-0.0.0.0)WAN2
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

I Need Help with Sending My Ipod Back!

I need to send my ipod back because I think the headphone connector is broken but I'm confused. When go to the page where you send it back it asks you some questions. At the start it asks you if you need to replace a part or the whole thing...whick should I chose? Also at one part it asks you what's wrong with the ipod. It has a drop down menu and i'm not sure what to put. Also after that it asks you which faulty accessory you have. What happens when you don't have a faulty accessory or you don't know what's wrong with it? What else would a headphone connector be called...sorry i'm really thick

If you have used your iPod with other headphones and it still won't work then you would need the whole iPod replaced.
So...
1) Repair whole unit
2) For select an issue, click Sound Quality
You should be able to complete the rest of the form.
