Not really a question just a funny observation with shares and Finder

I was messing around with the new feature of automatically showing computers with shares in the side bar of finder. One question I do have about this is there anyway to have finder show more about the specific computer I select information on? For example, I right clicked a Windows 2000 server that was automatically showing up and finder told me the computer was a PC however all of the other data was blank. The funniest part about it though was the picture it assigned to the preview of the Windows 2000 server. It just displays a PC with a BSOD lol. Here's a link to the picture.

What information would you like to see? If you mount a share on that server, go into Computer (Command-Shift-C) and select the share you just mounted and open an Info Window to it, you should get a bunch of info.

  • Not really a question- just fyi the 4.0 version is no longer compatible with Indexhibit (a website template program).

    I can no longer up load images into the backend of my site that I built with Indexhibit. The previous version worked. I'm able to get it done with Chrome but would like to keep everything in Firefox if possible.
    Thanks for an otherwise great browser!

    sorry, I forgot: indexhibit.org

  • Not rally a question, just wanted to share my absolute frustration with the update of iTunes...this is, without a shadow of a doubt THE WORST application i have EVER used, Mac or PC! And that's saying something with the amount of PC dross that's out there

And that's saying something with the amount of PC dross that's out there...Apple...PLEASE update and give us back the old version of iTunes...

    Pull down View > Show Sidebar. This will give you back the same functionality of iTunes 10.x.x.

  • Not really a problem just would like to know if I install firefox 4 beta...will I lose my bookmarks already in my current firefox browers and is that the same for the farmville game bar from facebook

    It should not be a problem, as long as you are careful. Note the delete settings option when uninstalling firefox will delete bookmarks etc for ALL installed versions of firefox.
    Firefox attempts to retain the profile information, that include bookmarks etc when updating. It may still be prudent to consider other backup methods not entirely dependent on firefox.
    The firefox 4 beta will install by default in a slightly different location, you are then able to run either the current or the beta version of firefox. It is recommended you set up a new profile for the new version of firefox. see

  • My ipad will not charge up. it just shows the red battery signal and then switches off

    my ipad will not charge up. it just shows the red battery signal and then switches off. The same charger succesfully charges other idas so i know it is no the charger that is faulty.Any suggestions

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

    BTW- Your profile shows you have iOS 6.1.4 installed. The max iOS for an iPad is 6.1.3. iOS 6.1.4 is for iPhones only.

  • While updating my ipad to new software through itunes it got stuck and does not work anymore - it just displays the screen with symbols of itunes and the cable to connect to it - help - what should i do?

    while updating my ipad to new software through itunes it got stuck and does not work anymore - it just displays the screen with symbols of itunes and the cable to connect to it - help - what should i do?

    Disconnect the iPad, do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!, reconnect and follow the prompts.
    If that does not work then see here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • Dm4-1060us laptop SD Card Reader 5-in-1 question. Does it work with SDHC and SDXC memory cards?

    dm4-1060us laptop SD Card Reader 5-in-1 question. Does it work with SDHC and SDXC memory cards?

    This cart reader is a kind of multi card reader and you can use different cards with it. In my opinion every multi device should be used very, but very gently. I do not know what happened exactly in your case but maybe you have damaged something inside.
    Try to restart your notebook and use other SD card to check if everything works well. Please do it very gently and if you see something is wrong stop with inserting the card.
    I use 1 GB SD card on my A200 without any problems.
    In my opinion you should check notebook by technician.
    Bye and good luck!

    Hello there stidhambr15,
    I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.

    Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

    You iPod has been jail broken.  Unfortunately you are on your own here. I can offer that you need to find out which method and software was used to JB.
    Good luck...you're gonna need it....

  • This is not really a question but just a highlight. I have been for 20 minutes on the phone through the express lane support and I have been told that iCloud DO NOT stores music or video and cannot be used to pushes any music you bought through iTunes !

    I have been amazed from the Express Lane support. I have been asking information about how to store/push my iTunes music in the iCloud. The answer has been that iCloud DO NOT stores you iTunes music at all !!!!! Is this real ?
    I am Mobileme user since the beginning and just bought OS X Lion and all necessary software to maximise the use of iCloud and now I have to discover that what has been advertised for months on the web is just ballsheets.

    Wow!  It took you 3 week to come up with that ridiculous response?
    Since I don't have access to the 11/13 web pages (my time machine is out of order), I can't provide that.  However you know full well that iTunes Match has been live for the last 3 weeks, and it isn't "ballsheets."
    As far as the "gift you may have to spend too much time on internet", it took you far longer to compose and post your whining rant that it would have if you just searched it with Google and got your own answer...

  • I just purchased an IMac with lion and I tryed to install an old math program that is for winmac running systems. When I try to boot the cd it comes up with a notepad window with a bunch of weird symbols and codes but the program will not start up.

    I just purchase my first IMac with lion and I was trying to install a math program I bought 6 years ago. When I went to boot it off the disk while following the program instructions a window popped up with a note pad format with symbols and codes but the program would not download or open. How do I get this program to work? It is a mac compatible program by the way.

    Your Mac probably does not know with which application to open the file and is opening a file with a text editor that really needs to be opened by the application itself.  Try starting the application first, then use the File > open command to open the file.
    As varjak paw comments, there isn't a "winmac" so that's not telling us anything.
    Note that it is possible that software purchased 6 years ago may no longer run on your computer.  Once we know what it is we can help more.

  • I just renewed my plan with verizon and am just not happy

    Cliff notes Been with fios for roughly five years dating back to the free 19 inch HD TV promotion After my first two year contract expired I called to renew and was given a even better price. Then the first bill comes and it's not even close to what we agreed on. Called and called because I was not going to accept being completely lied to. At this time period many, many people were here claiming the same thing happened (approx2 yrs ago). All was settled with a 40 dollar "valued customer discount" which lasted one year and dropped to a 20 dollar " valued customer discount". I was happy, didn't mind paying more and loved FIOS.Mind you it took many,many hourson the phone to resolve. Fast forward to about a month ago and being leary about calling in, being told one thing and getting charged another I went online. Was basically bullied into choosing a inferior package from extreme to prime, said I would not lose nfln and MLB network. All he kept asking me was if I had checked out yet, like he was in some hurry, over and over again which was odd. Having two young ones at home and money being tight I was trying to save a buck. Shame on me, I lost many off my favorite channels which I could probably live with however the internet speeds are painfully slow. I can hardly watch videos now it's so bad. Did the chat rep put a gun to my head? No, but being at work and him being rather pushy clouded my judgement on just waiting like I should have. So here I sit, a long time happy customer wearing FIOS underpants left holding the bag with sub par service that I really didn't want. The wife is fuming wanting to switch to xfinity as I tell her I will try and come to some common ground with the big red V. If there are any suggestions or help on what I can do it would be truly appreciated. Mike (certified Verizon kool aid drinker)
