New 10.4.8 Updates

I don't know if its just 'me' or if the performance has actually been enhanced, but since I've installed the latest updates (10.4.8 included) my iMac 20 seems much faster both in overall performance and Internet access.
Anyone else noticing the same?

Hello,
I think you are correct. I don't use ComCast. But, I have found that the pages are loading about 3 or 4 times faster in Safari since updating to 10.4.8. Especially on this Apple Discussions site. It is considerably faster now.
And, yes, they did specifically work on compatibility with ComCast services. So, if you use ComCast, then you will likely see a great improvement there.
I hope this helps.
Let us know if you have other questions.

    "If you've forgotten the Apple ID password how did you log in to make the last post?"
    Exactly! The password I used to log on here and write my post I figured was the same Apple ID password I would use to reset my computer login password. But my computer isn't recognizing it as the correct password so it wont let me update my login password. I have 2 user accounts on my computer.
    As far as the link you provided, I already looked to that for help earlier. It states:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Users & Groups, click the lock to unlock it, then provide an administrator name and password. Select a user, then click Reset Password.
    I did these steps, but I don't remember my admin password. The question is: How do I reset my admin password so I can reset my log in password.
    Is my admin password the same password I use to log onto this website to post questions? If so, like I said previously, I already reset that password and my computer isnt recognizing it.

  • Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window

    Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started 2 days ago. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window?
    There is no plus sign and going into optins and changing settings has not worked. I have uninstall FF and reinstall-keeping my personalization-and that was no help.
    Right clicking on FF Icon to open a new tab, or going up to FF drop down tab and clicking on new tab both do not work.
    Help everything opens a new window not a new tab. there seems to be no way to reset this or to chose a different optin. I just downloaded new tabs at end addon and it didn't do a thing.

    as a first troubleshooting step - does it work like normally when you open & run firefox in [[Safe Mode|safemode]] by pressing the shift key while you open firefox (all other instances have to be closed before)...

  • The new ACR 5.5 update will not install in Elements 7.0

    Hello All:
    This situation is now becoming ridiculous (well, for me that is).  I just tried to install the new ACR 5.5 update and it is "unable to install" into Elements 7.0.  I downloaded the update several times, unzipped the install file, but when trying to install, it just gives me a message that it is unable to install and to hit the "quit" button.
    I have a Vista 64 Bit system with 12 Gigs of RAM.  I've installed Elements 7.0 and Lightroom 2.5 on my system - all with no problems.  For some reason, I could never get Photoshop CS-4 to install at all and I've been through the mill trying to install Photoshop - but nothing worked and had to eventually give up.  Trying to get Adobe support for CS installation on my 64 Bit system has been ridiculous in this regard as each and every time I called, I was connected with some techrep located in India who all they did was "parrot" back what I told them - how frustrating.  But as I mentioned, Elements 7.0 and Lightroom installed just fine.
    The previous ACR 5.4 installed just fine into Elements, but now...ACR 5.5 will not install.  It tells me that I do NOT have CS-4 installed so it cannot install.  What's up with that? Has Adobe stopped supporting the latest ACR upgrades for Elements?  What gives?
    Does anybody just have just the newest ACR 5.5 plug-in by itself that they can send me so I can just put it in my plug-ins folder (or a place where I can download it)?  Adobe used to just have the plug-in that you could unzip and copy and paste and put it into your plug-in folders - but not anymore.  Now they make it an 82 Meg install program and thus some of my problems.
    Can anybody help here?  Why does the install program look for CS-4, yet overlook Elements 7.0 completely.  Helpppppppppp.

    Hi Benherrmann,
    Sorry to listen that you havent been able to install the Camera Raw 5.5 plugin.
    But as far as my knowledge goes for PSE, PSE never lists Camera Raw plugin for updates in the Updater Preferences dialog i.e., if you will launch Help->Check for updates, a updater window will open. If you will check the preferences of that updater dialog, it will tell you that it never checks for updates for Camera Raw plugin unlike what happens in Mac. In Mac Camera Raw updates does get installs just by installing PSE(v6 of course as there is no PSE7 for Mac. Hopefully there will be a v8 for Mac by the end of october as seen in the last release).
    Dont know exact reason why Adobe had configured it in that way? why there is some difference between Win and Mac.
    So it prompts me that somehow you need to install Ps CS4 on the machine to get the patch installation through updater. Although this is not Ps forum, would you mind telling what error/issues are you facing while installing Ps CS4?
    Regards,
    Ankush

    I recently changed my lap top. My problem is the new lap top won't accept my apple I D it asked me to sing up for a new one which I did.
    I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
    Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
    I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

  • I have a new email address and updated it with my apple id/icloud and updated on my iPhone, but i'm getting a pop up to enter my password with my old email address listed for iCloud/Apple id.

    Did you create a NEW Apple ID or did you change the email address for your OLD Apple ID? This will affect how you update apps in the future.
    Anyway, go to Settings/iTunes&App Stores, log out, then log in with the new ID.

    All content and data is forever associated with the Apple ID you used to download it. You should have reset the password for the original I'd.

    Take a look at Apple's document for authorizations -> iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization.
    You can deauthorize all computers from iTunes. All you have to do is click iTunes Store, click your account name in the upper right corner of iTunes, then deauthorize all.

    Hi mate
    As far as I know Toshiba European driver page does not provide any details what has been changed in the BIOS.
    But I found some details on Toshiba US page.
    It seems that Fn+N+1/2/3/4 debug function has been removed in BIOS 2.0 to avoid keyboard abnormal behavior.

  • Get OLD&NEW value of an UPDATED column selected dynamically in a Trigger

    Hi All,
    I am writting a trigger which take column name dynamically. And on the basis of that column it should give me old value as well as updated value of a column corresponding to a modified row.
    OOO_SCHEDULE is my table name;
    Note: This is only for test so I am writting only for update not for insert and delete.
    create or replace trigger "OOO_SCHEDULE_AUDIT"
    BEFORE
    insert or update or delete on "OOO_SCHEDULE"
    for each row
    begin
    DECLARE
    v_username varchar2(30);
    AUDIT_EMP_ID varchar2(30);
    AUDIT_EMP_ID_NEW varchar2(30);
    v_Column_name VARCHAR(30);
    v_stmt1 VARCHAR(40);
    v_stmt2 VARCHAR(40);
    CURSOR C1 is
    select COLUMN_NAME from user_tab_columns where table_name='OOO_SCHEDULE';
    BEGIN
    OPEN c1;
    LOOP
    FETCH c1 into v_Column_name;
    EXIT WHEN c1%NOTFOUND;
    v_stmt1:=('OLD.'||v_Column_name);
    v_stmt2:=('NEW.'||v_Column_name);
    AUDIT_EMP_ID:=v_stmt1;
    AUDIT_EMP_ID_NEW:=v_stmt2;
    INSERT INTO TEMPTEST VALUES(v_stmt1);
    INSERT INTO TEMPTEST VALUES(AUDIT_EMP_ID);
    END LOOP;
    CLOSE c1;
    END;
    end;
    Suppose OOO_EMP_NAME is the column name where user made the change.
    If i do like this..
    AUDIT_EMP_ID:=OLD.OOO_EMP_NAME;
    AUDIT_EMP_ID_NEW:=NEW.OOO_EMP_NAME;
    Then it is working fine because I have given column name statically. But I want the column name to be selected dynamically and I am able to do it through cursor. Also I am able to fetch all column names in v_Column_name variable one by one dyanamically for the cursor.
    But by executing these statements
    AUDIT_EMP_ID:=v_stmt1;
    AUDIT_EMP_ID_NEW:=v_stmt2;
    I am getting OLD.OOO_EMP_NAME and NEW.OOO_EMP_NAME rather then old and new values of the updated column.
    Please help me identifying the problem, where I am doing the mistake? What is the correct way to execute these statements? So that I can get old and new values of the column (updated column).
    I have tried it by passing in a procedure also but don't know how to execute this dynamic statement to get the old and new values.
    Thanks,
    Ishrat.

    In the given link, column name has been selected statically. But i want that column name should be selected daynamically throgh loop and then check the
    condition for any update corresponding to that column value. I don't want to write as many if condition as the no. of column name. I just want one if condition for all column namesDon't be lazy. Write all column names into your trigger. Or use a way to create the trigger "dynamically".
    What is the problem that you have with static column names? "I don't want to write many..." is not a problem, but an opinion.

  • New tabs are not updating the names of the sites they have loaded. When I open a new tab and load a site, the tab simply stays named "New Tab". When I open a link in a new window, it shows "Connecting..." even while its fully loaded.
