New to the World Mac and I need help with the internet?
Hi All,
I've purchased a second hand eMac from a local College last summer and I've finally got around to connecting it to the internet (after 20 + years of working and using PCs). All is great or I thought???
There is a few problems that I still encountered and hopefully someone can help?
The spec of the Mac is 1 GHz PowerPC G4 (768 MB SDRAM) running Mac OS X Vers. 10.3.9.
For the internet I connect via Safari 1.3.2 (v312.6). However, I cannot access Hotmail, selected sites outside of the UK and also when I go into Facebook the interface (layout) is a mess and I can't access various options available. I tried to download Safari 4.0.4. for SnowLeopard, but it won't allow it as I don't have the Billings of Materials?
Does anyone know how I can resolve the above or point me in the correct direction.
Many thanks in advance, JJ
Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Version 1.x of Safari is old in Internet years, and many sites using advanced coding (or non-standard coding) won't render properly. Later browser versions have more support for the non-standard HTML that for instance MS webpage programs generate as well as support for more recent authoring tools. Which is a long-winded way of saying you're on the right track, you need to update your browser.
The later versions of Safari require OS X 10.4 or later. Your eMac can be upgraded to 10.4 or 10.5, but it'll be easier to first try a free third-party browser such as Firefox or Camino or Opera (Version Tracker and MacUpdate are good links to start from when looking for software and updates).
Note: moving among different browsers on different platforms, I can confirm that it's all too common for sites to render differently, with layouts off from a little to a lot.
As for being blocked from non-UK sites and Hotmail, if that still crops up with Firefox, check to see if the school that sold you the computer had proxy servers set yp that might be blocking some sites. You can also go to Apple menu, System Preferences, show built-in Ethernet or Airport depending on which one you use, click on the Proxies tab, and see if anything is checked/active there.

I'm new to mac book pro need help with the dock
'm new to mac book pro and I accidentally delete from the dock the Utilities and Documents Icon. How do I put it back?
I already tried moving fromEric's right, but an additional tip;
Make sure the folders and other non-app shortcuts you'd like on the dock go on the right hand side of the little median (looks like a road median), and place them directly between two other items. They will only shortcut onto the dock if you see the Dock make space for it. -
I have done my back up using time machine, now I have a new mac and I need to access the files that I had saved from my old mac. How can I do that?
Use Migration Assistant on your new Mac:
Click Continue:
On the next screen, choose your Time Machine backup disk.
Don't bother to migrate Applications unless you know they will work on your new Mac. For example, PowerPC applications won't work. Just migrate your user account which will copy all your photos, music, movies, and other documents.
Note: you will not be able to migrate the information to same account in which you are already logged in. Migration Assistant will tell you that and recommend what to do. It can migrate the information to a new account, but you will have to give it a name you might want to change later. One way around this is to create a temporary account, log in to it, and run Migration Assistant which will replace your normal account. Then, log out of the temporary account, log in to your usual one, verify everyting works as you expect, and delete the temporary one.
All this can be avoided when you set up a brand new Mac by running Setup Assistant which essentially does the same thing to create your new account, but most people are too excited to do that and elect to migrate later. -

You must first buy Snow Leopard from Apple: 800-MY-APPLE (in the US)
Make sure your system meets Snow Leopard's requirements:
Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" System Requirements
To install Snow Leopard for the first time, you must have a Mac with:
An Intel processor
An internal or external DVD drive, or DVD or CD Sharing
At least 1 GB of RAM (additional RAM is recommended)
A built-in display or a display connected to an Apple-supplied video card supported by your computer
At least 5 GB of disk space available, or 7 GB of disk space if you install the developer tools -
I need help with the photo stream. Everytime I try to open it on my PC it says photo stream is unable and I have tried everuthing to enable it but it doesn't work. Any help, please?
Freezing, or crashing?
ID on the Mac can produce reports that may (or may not) prove helpful in diagnosing the problem. I suspect this is something not directly related to InDesign, and maybe not to any of the Adobe apps directly since you seem to be having a problem in more than one. That often inidcates a problem at the system level.
Nevertheless, it won't hurt to try to gather the reports. You'll find driections for how to generate them, and to post them on Pastebin.com (then put a link to them here) so we can see what's going on at Adobe Forums: InDesign CS5.5 Not Responding

REG: 4 different folders from the source side and we need to have the BPM t
Hi All,
We are using a BPM for file-idoc scenario. Previously we use to have one source folder which sends file and the bpm worked fine. Now we have a requirement where the files come from 4 different folders from the source side and we need to have the BPM to run independently for each folder.
What are the changes to be made in IR and id for this..
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran.File adapter has a option advance selection of source file setting which can be used for picking files from different folder.

iMac 7.1 (2.47 Ghz Intel Core Duo w/2GB memory) operating OSX v 10.9.5. At the core level I find two Library folders, one within the System Folder and one by itself with the other core level folders - mostly same content. Is this right or do I have a duplication problem?
The system is slow. -
I need help with the clone tool, in that when I clone (let's say grass as example), the new cloned area does NOT come out as sharp as the area selected. It comes out much softer and somewhat blurred. I have the opacity and flow both set at 100%. This is very frustrating since I can not get a true clone.
what "tip" do you have selected? where are you sampling from ( found in top option bar) ALSO make sure MODE is normal

I need Help with the dynamic link feature in CS3
Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me with an issue I am having? I have the adobe cs3 master collection. Having watched tutorials on the dynamic link feature my version seems not to have the same options as those I have viewed. I wish to send my premiere video creation to encore using dynamic link, however when I click "file" and then "adobe dynamic link" the only options available are about "adobe after effects". I can export to encore however I am only alloowed to export one premiere sequence to one new encore file, I cannot create an encore file and import several premiere sequence into the same encore project. That means currently I can only have an encore creation with one premiere sequence in it, and I have no adobe dynamic link. Any help anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much for that guys but my premiere media encoder only lets me export as: MPEG1, MPEG1-VCD, MPEG2, MPEG2 blu-ray, MPEG2-DVD, MPEG2-SVCD, H.264, H.264 blu-ray, Adobe Flash Video, Quicktime, Real Media, Windows Media. Are any of these formats DV AVI?
Am I to export my videos direct to encore or save them elsewhere (e.g desktop). It seems that I cannot export sequences from different premiere projects to the same encore project.
Sorry if any of these questions seem obvious, I am just new to premiere and keen to do things right from the off.
Many thanks again guys.

Harm is correct. For SD DVD, exporting as a DV AVI file from Pr will give you good results. Encore's Automatic Transcoding will give you maximum quality for the available disc space.

I need help with the Web Application Certificate
Greets,
The title says it all really. I need help with the Web Application Certificate.
I've followed the instructions from here:
https://www.novell.com/documentation....html#b13qz9rn
I can get as far as item 3.c
3. Getting Your Certificate Officially Signed
C. Select the self-signed certificate, then click File > Certification Request > Import CA Reply.
I can get the certificate in to the Filr appliance but from there I'm stuck.
Any help much appreciated.Originally Posted by bentinker

ok when you have you self signed certificate and you requested an official certificate with the corresponding CSR then you just need to go back to the digital certificates console. To import the official certificate, select the self signed certificate, then click File > Certification Request > Import CA Reply. Then a new windows pops out to select the certificate from your trusted authority from your local hard disk. Find the file (.cer worked for me) and click ok. As soon as you do this in the digital certificates console the self signed certificate will change the information that now it is officially signed. Look at the second column and you should see the name of your trusted authority under "issue from"
I personally had a lot of issues across all platforms. Especially Firefox and Chrome for android. Needed to pack all the root cert, intermediate cert and signed cert into one file and import as CA reply. Not even sure if this is correct now. But at least it works. -
I forgot the passcode to turn off restrictions. I have restored my iPad back to the factory settings and then synced it with the latest backup. The restrictions are still on and it is asking for the passcode. Can someone tell me how to get that off.
The only option is to wipe the device clean and restore it to factory settings. Hope you have a backup.
Follow the instructions in iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 to restore the device to factory settings.
Once you have setup the device as a new one, you can then sync it back with your iTunes account and all your music, apps, contacts and any other content sync'ed with iTunes will be loaded on the device. Any content that is stored only on the device and not sync'ed with iTunes, like app logins or data, will be lost during this process. Be forewarned that this is a long process and can take a couple of hours or more to complete. This can be painful, but it is necessarily so to prevent users from working around the security settings. After the restore is complete, you can setup a new Restrictions passcode. Make a note of the passcode to avoid this situation in future.

Need help with the Vibrance adjustment in Photoshop CC 2014.
Need help with the Vibrance adjustment in Photoshop CC 2014.
Anytime I select Vibrance to adjust the color of an image. The whole image turns Pink in the highlights when the slider is moved from "0" to - or + in value. Can the Vibrance tool be reset to prevent this from happening? When this happens I cn not make adjustments...just turns Pink.
Thanks,
GDThank you for your reply.
Yes, that does reset to “0” and the Pink does disappear.
But as soon as I move the slider +1 or -1 or higher the image turns Pink in all of the highlights again, rather than adjusting the overall color.

Need help with the session state value items.
I need help with the session state value items.
Trigger is created (on After delete, insert action) on table A.
When insert in table B at least one row, then trigger update value to 'Y'
in table A.
When delete all rows from a table B,, then trigger update value to 'N'
in table A.
In detail report changes are visible, but the trigger replacement value is not set in session value.
How can I implement this?You'll have to create a process which runs after your database update process that does a query and loads the result into your page item.
For example
SELECT YN_COLUMN
FROM My_TABLE
INTO My_Page_Item
WHERE Key_value = My_Page_Item_Holding_Key_ValueThe DML process will only return key values after updating, such as an ID primary key updated by a sequence in a trigger.
If the value is showing in a report, make sure the report refreshes on reload of the page.
