New g4 MDD user fan question

hey ya'll, i just picked up a dual 1.25, airport, bluetooth, superdrive, 17inch studio display, and pair of 120 gig harddrives MDD g4, for a ridiculously low price.
how loud are these fans supposed to be? i'm hearing sort of a clunking sound, havn't got a chance to clean it out yet. any ideas? i'm not too worried, gonna use this thing till it breaks. can you buy replacement fans that will fit from third parties? if it works all week i plan on upgrading to 2 gigs of ram and installing leopard.

No.. it doesn't. At least in my eyes, my computer screams, but then again mine is expanded to the full 2GB memory. I would not advise to replace the power supply fans unless you have good soldering skills - Uncle steve made it so difficult for us to change the fans in the power supply - plus, you might wind up electricuting yourself at the same time!
Better to change the Pabst fan or case fan as its called with a better fan such as the Silent-x fan. I don't think the quieter powersupply and fan kit are available from Apple anymore, but you can try.
I have some noise, but not much and its not really that bad.
Dust? Where did you find all that dust at? Let me know, so that I can see if I have any "dust" build-up. When I got this MDD 3 months ago, the owner took care of it in a dust-free enviornment, but looking in my machine from top to bottom, I don't see any dust! I also rubbed my fingers against the small fans in the power supply and NO DUST at all.

New Blackberry Z10 User (Multiple Questions)

1. I used to be able to input all my email accounts online. For example sprint.blackberry.com. I tried att.blackberry.com; however, it indicates my operating system is no longer supported with my new device. Does anyone know when this capability will be available for the BB Z10?
2. Since I no longer have access to number 1, does anyone know if I can automatically have messages I send from my phone to be forwarded or blind copied back to me? I need to keep a record of all emails sent. I found the email signature option - just not the blind bcc option. This was previously avaialble with the online functionality.
3. When using the new Blackberry Link software... does anyone know if I can view all the changes that will be applied to my device? For example, I used to be able to select get details for confirm calendar edits prior to accepting the synchronization. This is extremely helpful for me since I bill based on what is in the calendar. Having the system just place information on my calendar will not allow me to easily find what needs has been added, deleted or changed for billing, etc. I REALLY NEED THIS FEATURE! Is there any other way to obtain it? I tried view the information in the log files; however, it doesn't present the changes in an easy to read format as it used to.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

What you are referring to is a function of BIS, which was required for legacy devices. BIS is not used on BB10 devices...hence, nothing associated with BIS applies to BB10 devices. To specifically answer your question...I believe the answer is never.

Again, that auto-BCC function was provided by BIS, which is not used in BB10. Hence, you must find another method. Typically, the solution is provided by your email server...you would have to talk to that admin to find out if such is available to you.

The LINK software is very different from the legacy BB Desktop Software. What you see is what is available.
Good luck!

New Macbook Pro User with questions

Hello,
Since 2003 i have been posting questions pertaining to my beloved G5. the motherboard went on me so I go a macbook pro. So far its very nice and I will prolly be posting questions for years to come. Thankfully I backed up everything on Time Machine two days before the computer bit it. There are certain things I want on this computer and certain things I don't. Can I pick and choose which things I want? Also, how do I get my Safari bookmarks and my iChat settings (the names I have given all my buddies) on my new laptop? Thanks for your help!

I assume your backup is on an external drive that you can connect to your MBP. I would then use Migration Assistant as one option. It will allow you to restore from a TM backup on another computer or connected backup drive.
Be sure you are careful about what you move as your old computer was a PPC computer and not everything on it is compatible with Intel Macs. I would only transfer your personal files as well as your mail, address book, etc. You will also need the preference files for Mail, AB, iCal, etc. and they are located in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. AB, iCal, and iChat also have folders in /Home/Library/Applications Support/ that will need to be transferred. Avoid transferring any system files or applications that are PPC only. PPC-only apps should be reinstalled or upgraded to universal binaries.

New Mega Pc User has questions!

Hey Guys, I'm new to this forum. I just bought a Mega PC, running a 2.6 celeron, 1 gig of samsung ram and an 80 gig maxtor HD. I've read through the many threads in this forum but couldn't find what i'm looking for
1) has anyone been able to mod the mega pc so that the LCD can be functional in PC mode? its such a nice display! such a waste to just show the time in pc mode
2) i've read through the forums here and some people say that they can use the remote in PC mode specifically when using windows media player to play music. Did you have to update anything to allow this?
I'm new to this board so any info regarding moding the mega pc in terms of LCD and remote functionality would be great!
finally i place where i can find other mega pc users!

WOuld it be possible for someone to be kind enough to post a link to the greeting program for the LCD display? so many of us would like it!
Also Could you tell me if the light on your card readers is always on?
Also when running MSI live update it always says i need the drivers again after i downloaded! and the version for the mega pc on the web page only does the radio!
i didnt get a CD with the PC so i have the web drivers. am i missing alot?
Did the MSI media center come on the CD?
any one in the UK want to sell me a CDR copy?
if so please email [email protected] can send you a couple of quid on paypal or somthing
yes if you download the latest version of msi radio from the support page, you will be able to use the remote when the computer is on for media player. For example. if the computer is on, and you press "hi fi" on your remote, media player will automcatically open and the lcd lights up and says "cd", has the play arrow and the circle rotates. i wish the equalizer came on! :P
yes my card reader light is always on, don't worry i don't think this really matters
Actually if you run live update 3 (the website based version) it tells you the version you have, and the version on the web. I think its up to you to compare each version and download if necessary.
If you didn't get the cD don't worry you are not missing anyhting i think. IT just had agp, video, network, modem, and audio drivers, all of which are on the website with latest versions. Some utilities are on the cd as well, but all and MORE are found on the website.
AND YES IF ANYONE HAS THE "GREETING" PROGRAM PLEASE POST!!

New ipod touch user. Question!!

Ok, so i'm about to buy an ipod touch soon, and i have some free apps on my itunes already down. (i also have movies and music too). What i'm wondering, is when i sync my ipod touch to my itunes library, will the apps copy over? and if they do, next time i sync my ipod, will itunes reset all my apps to default?? (high scores, saved stuff, passwords, pictures etc) and if i buy apps from my touch, will they be erased ifi sync my ipod to the computer?? thank you to whoever answers this question! i'm excited to get my ipod! thx.

- If the iPod is signed into the same itunes account that purchased the apps and other stuff they can be synced to the new iPod.
- App data such as save games and status is included in the backup of what ever device the apps were installed, They are not included with the apps i our iTunes library. What you have to do is to backup the device that has the app data you want and then restore the new iPod using the backup of that device. You did not state what device has the apps now and thus the app data but most devices can be restored from the backup of other devices.
- If you purchase apps on the new iPod they will be/can be transfered to your computer if the computer is authorized for the account used to purchase the apps.

I don't have a question so much as a comment for APPLE. I am a new iPhone 5s user and it has many things I like but It is too small and I can only talk on the phone and use the internet if i am in a position to use a wifi connection and that is not good

I am a new iPhone 5s user. I like many of the features it offers. I don't like that I cannot talk and use the internet (if I am away from WI-FI) and this phone is too small. I am actually thinking of returning it and going back to an Android. After all the hassle it took to get all my stuff working on this phone , it may be worth the switch. This phone needs to be able to multitask freely in this day and age. Also Safari is not the best search engine but I could work with it if I could talk and use it at the same time. I use my phone for business and this is a feature that is needed in my line of work.

The iPhone is working, as designed and advertised. In this case, the user failed to educate themselves properly, either by proper research or asking the right questions, before purchasing the device.
I understand that the OP failed to do research. But then, I wasn't replying to the OP. I was replying to Chris. I have Verizon. I can talk and use data at the same time with my Droid Maxx. Therefore, the problem is not just with the network. It would be technically possible for an iPhone to do that on Verizon/Sprint if Apple had chosen to use a different chip, such as the kind other phone manufacturers have elected to use.
Of course, this is probably all irrelevant to the OP's issue. It was merely a point of clarification, especially for those people who are used to being able to use both voice and data at the same time on Verizon. When they switch to an iPhone, they are often surprized at the limitation.
Best of luck.

User Interface Questions

I have already programmed some dialogs in JavaScript. I'm not using Script UI, although I've played around with Script UI a little bit. Now I'm getting a bit more advanced with some user interfaces and dialogs and have a few questions:
1. Is it possible to create a "live updating" dialog similar to InDesign's Files > New > Document, where based on a menu selection of a preset, the dialog's editboxes change their values to reflect that menu selection?
2. Can you program something like the Presets button in InDesign's New Document dialog where the user clicks "Save Preset", names it, and then the main dialog updates with the new preset the user just created.
3. Script UI does not have measurement friendly boxes, does it? By that I mean that when you enter inches, mm or picas, the box will translate it into the current measurement type.
4. I love the nudge option on the measurement editboxes. Can that be done via Script UI?
Ideally my coding needs to work in both CS2 and CS3 and I code in JavaScript because that's what I know, but if the "live updating" stuff is possible in AppleScript or VBScript I'd still like to be aware that it can be done.
While code examples of any of this are welcome, I mostly need to know what's possible, and any starting point you can offer will help (like the name of the control). That way I can start looking things up and figuring them out.
Thanks in advance,
Dan

Thanks for the answers Bob. They are exactly as I thought, but wanted to make sure. It sucks that we have to recreate (via code), things that were given to us before Script UI. I know Script UI is more powerful in some ways (and hopefully sure will get more powerful with time) but loosing measurement boxes is a big bummer. They had so many nice built in features. I feel like I need to reinvent the wheel with Script UI.
1. Do you have any example dialogs that you could post? I can often figure out how to get a lot of stuff done by looking over examples other people have created. Especially things where one feature interacts with another, but even just a dialog with menus, text, etc so I can check out how to layout the dialog. I have created one dialog with Script UI, but am not sure if I am doing it very efficiently and I couldn't find any Script UI stuff in InDesign's sample scripts.
2. I suspect if I use Script UI I'll have to verify that only numbers are entered into the edit fields right? I need numerical values only for what I will be doing. Any thoughts on the best way to verify it's only a number in there? Can I do that live in the dialog before the user clicks OK? Argh, all these complications make me less than enthusiastic to go to Script UI, but I really would like to be able to have a live updating dialog.

Create New NON SA User

Hi all,
I want to create new user for following operations.
1. Send DB mail.
2. Execute ad hoc queries(eg. read/write excel sheet,csv,txt files etc.)
3. can't access other database.
4. He should owner of particular database.
5. Access other server table. (optional)
Can you please tell me how to create new non sa user with above requirement. If any one give me any example its really appreciated.
Thanks in Advanced.

Hi AK9841
It is look like your current problem is not related to the original question. As
TiborK mentioned we need more information regarding the error that you get. I dont want to start a guessing game :-(
* In any case you could open a new thread for this question :-)
** using OleDB provider you connect to external resources (ms-access file in your case). the user and password that you use in the connection has nothing to do with the SQL Server or the database that you are using but to the external resources. This is basically
the same as any connection to a remote database using OleDB provider.

I'm looking to buy a new Macbook Pro, and have questions about the Applecare extended warranty?

I'm looking to buy a new Macbook Pro, and have questions about the Applecare extended warranty? I want to know if the 3 year extended warranty covers what damage. Like water damage, accidental damage, lost or stolen macbook, manufactory defects, or any other kind of damage, maybe be even cosmetic damage. Can anyone help me?

If you are talking about features of the MBP itself, as long as you are not looking at the Retina models, then the memory you can upgrade yourself for a lot less than Apple charges, and that does not affect the warranty as Apple considers memory a user permitted upgrade. Great sources are Crucial and OWC, both are Mac specialists and have on-line videos on how to do the install.
If the 15" is what you are looking at, a good upgrade is the 7200 rpm hard drive, gives a little better performance over the standard 5400 rpm drive.
The Hi Res screen is good if you do a lot of graphics work.
Comparing the 13" amd 15" you will notice the 15" has a second, discrete graphic processor...helps when you get into heavy duty videos, games, graphics...but keep in mind that kicking in the second processor uses a lot of power and will run the battery down faster.
If you are looking at the Retina models, then keep in mind there are no post-purchase upgrade options...you have to buy with everything you want at the start.
Just some thoughts.

Adding user challenge questions.

I have been successful in reading and changing questions and answers programmatically but have not been able to add new user questions. (I have been able to add them through IDM online interface.)
Does anyone know how to add new user challenge questions?

I am curious at what point your doing this? I have a set of challenge questions and answers in an LDAP that I would like to use to populate the fields inside of iDM. This way, I could utilze the iDM screens/logic when a user forgets their password. I would also need to keep these fields updated in iDM as they could change in the LDAP. Any suggestions?

New FIos Internet user

Hoping someone can help a new FIOS internet user that's not much of a tech person. I have a new Verizon FIOS connection at home and an ActionTec wireless router connected to a box on the wall by coax cable. No problem with the wireless connection to my two family laptops, nice strong signal all through the house.
I want to connect two powered switches by ethernet cable to the ports on the router. One to connect my DirectTV box and bluray player so they have internet connections, and one in my basement to run a desktop PC that doesn't have a wireless card in it. Are there any problems with this? Does Verizon allow me to have two separate switches connected to the router which then power multiple items? Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You should have no problem connecting a switch to each of two ports on the Actiontec, and then feeding multiple devices from those switches. I'm doing that myself.
However, I don't understand why you need a switch in the circuit between the router and the desktop PC in the basement. If there's only going to be one device connected in the basement a direct run of Cat 5e or Cat 6 cable from an Actiontec port to the basement PC should do the trick.

You did install the latest iTunes (10.5) right? If the problem was that iTunes does not see the iPod try:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
or
