Please read this before you load SECURITY UPDATE 2010-006

I've just spent 72 hours with frozen cursors and frozen screens - so far all directly related to security update 2010-006. After successfully using SuperDuper! to erase my Internal HD and load a 2+ week old system without security update 2010-006 I seem to be fine again.
OK I have so much share-free ware on my MBP-13" (May 2010) running 10.6.4 that maybe I'm the only one on the planet to see this - but there is a 214 PAGE post for MBP-15 and MPB-17's freezing -- prior to Security Update 2010-006 ------ related or not, don't know.
I believe I will actually get a duplicate MacBook Pro (or at least a MINI with the same chip/speed) so that I can keep one clean and experiment (i.e. download stuff) on the other. Then if a problem, my life doesn't stop. I realize that from banking to photos to news to work to reports to my balance sheet to SKYPE to eMail to....... wow, and in 1983 I just had my HP calculators!! These Macs just have to work!
Best of success and comments welcome here.

Thanks for the feedback! I think my system is now "OK" (hours of checks, with Apple as well etc. etc.) but likely there was a conflict - and since I don't know what - and since I can't remove everything right now - if this keeps working I just won't install the security update 2010-006.
BUT will this sneak up on me in security update 2010-007 or ??? I kinda have to get to the bottom of this - am actually thinking of buying a second, almost identical Mac (or at least a somewhat cheaper MINI 2.4 gHz) to have some backup beyond my external drives (which saved me!)
Thanks again and any/all comments truly appreciated.
Best regards,
Steve Schulte

You might try resetting your connection settings using the steps listed in this message:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10695921&start=1
They're not guaranteed to solve the problem, but they'll only take a minute or so to try.
If those don't help, I'm not sure I have any other advice.

Read This BEFORE you update to iWeb '08

iWeb '08 introduces a lot of features that we've all been waiting for but, before you jump right in there, you should realize a lot of people are losing their original websites.
When you first launch iWeb '08 and upload an existing website it converts your domain.sites file to domain.sites2 file. Due to bugs in this software release, these converted files seem to be corrupted in various ways.
Once your domain.sites file has been converted there is no way back.
You MUST back them up.
If you want to continue working on your old sites you will have to retain your copy of iWeb '06. When you update to iWeb '08 your original application is replaced so, if you have not run the update, move your old iWeb application out of the "Applications" folder.
If you have already uploaded the new version and still have your iLife '06 disk then you are OK as long as you have made a "safe" backup of your original domain.sites file(s).
For more information on this subject go to

iWeb '08 Calamity: Lost site content, crashes, significantly increased resource usage, more
Backup your Domain files Make a copy of this file -- located in ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain -- before attempting to update to or use iWeb '08. The program is causing serious issues for a number of readers (as discussed below), and may delete or make inoperable parts of your stored Web site(s). Saving this file can mean the difference between losing or maintaining your current site data.
Missing site elements including photo galleries The most dire issue users are experiencing after updating to iWeb '08 is the sudden disappearance of various site elements, particularly photo galleries. Many users have reported that entire swaths of their sites are completely missing after launching the update and attempting to work with their pre-existing site(s) file.
Crashes A surprisingly high number of users are reporting repeated crashes after updating to iWeb '08.
Ironically, it appears that many of the crashes can be resolved by removing the file ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain. In essence, it looks like iWeb '08 is choking on the sites file created by older versions of iWeb. So move this file to a separate location, and try launching iWeb '08 again.
Increased resource usage/slowness Users are reporting that the new version of iWeb uses significantly more memory and processor time than its predecessor.

Please read this before posting?

First of all we need your stats so we can determine if or not their is an issue:
Please use this link http://192.168.1.254 to go to your hubs homepage:
(Heres the direct link! http://192.168.1.254/index.cgi?active_page=9116 )
Then click on Settings:
Then go to Advanced Settings:
then go to Broadband:
then go to Connection:
and then please copy and paste your adsl stats making sure you expand to show all details:
We need to determine whether you have a throughput or speed or IP profile issue, there is only one official speed tester that BT will accept for speed test and you need to go to http://www.speedtester.bt.com and then type click on the ADSL/FTTC option:
and then type in your phone number, wait for the results to be displayed:
and once the results have been displayed with your IP Profile please copy and paste the results to your post.
Also searching your exchange on http://www.samknows.com/broadband/exchange_search , this is not neccessary but can sometimes help.
Always make sure you try changing the filters this can be a common problem. If you have a mastersocket with a split front then unscrew the bottom bit and behind there should be a hidden test socket, you usually should try to test your broadband in there to make sure your internal wiring ins't causing interference this can be one of the highest common factors of slow broadband. Usually your broadband will be dependant on your line length from the exchange which will be based on your attenuation, so if your far from the exchange your not likely to get a great speed on ADSL.
Also dialling 17070 and pressing Option 2 to do a quiet line test will show if you have any noise on your line. If there's any noise on your line, try changing your filter's first and then call (0800 800) 151 and report a line fault don't mention broadband and go from there.
Happy posting!

Please Read This Before Wasting Your Life With BT

Hi,
I eagerly awaited my 17Mb promised Internet access from BT. On February 7th 2012 it was active, set up and was delighted, close to 17Mb access. Unfortunately over a period of 5 days it went down in steps to just 2Mb speed. Called the people in India and was taken through a whole lot of ill informed 'tests' of my system to try and determine what was wrong. I was even told to change the wireless channel even though I had advised I was connected via cable. The trick is to get it escalate and as soon as possible.
Once escalated you will probably be contacted by someone who knows what they are talking about from Ireland. I do actually know what I am talking about and so was able to convince the man at the other end of the phone that there was a problem at the exchange. A few days later an engineer turned up, checked everything in my house before confirming there was a problem at the exchange. Quick phone call to get the man at the exchange to put 'interleaving' onto the line and problem solved, stable at 17Mb. Happy, well nearly.
Set up my BT Home Hub 3 with four Edimax Repeaters to give good wireless coverage all around the house, worked perfectly........For about two hours. Believing it was my network set up I stripped it all apart reconfiguring everything. I tried WDS Bridge, all the repeating options I had, a different ASDSL+ modem, a Netgear router connected to the Home Hub to better control DCHP. All gave exactly the same results, perfect operation for around two hours then the whole nextwork collapsed.
Onto advanced networking set ups, different SSID, channel separation, blocking certain IP addresses nothing made any difference. I then spent a few days searching the Internet, there is not a lot of published information but there was an underlying trend pointing to BT and DNS issues. OK so I have to get a dynamic DNS account, why? Because BT's is useless and is the cause of the continued failure of my network and probably the cause of the regular interruption of your service.
I set up an account with NoIP, set the BT Home Hub 3 to to Dynamic DNS, type in the few details required and it connects immediately. Did I see any change, yes my network is now completely stable and I enjoy very fast Internet access.
Am I happy, no not really. Thge network set up I have today is the same as I had on 7th February and it is perfectly stable. No where on any of the forum do BT acknowledge that their network DNS is rubbish, completely rubbish. If you are having a problem get up a free NoIP Dynamic DNS account, if you are not having problems then get a free NoIP Dynamic DNS account because it is only a matter of time before you are plagued by the curse of the BT DNS.

This has worked perfectly for me. I can't believe the difference.

CMSS can cause for weird results. Please read this if you have surround issues

I'm a musician who frequently uses the Audio creation mode because this is the environment most optimal for creating music. For some time now, I've facing a certain problem where today, I finally found the solution about.
my problem
The problem I was having, is that some applications (they're optimised for stereo) played sound on my center speaker differently than those who use the windows 7 drivers. What happened in a nutshell, is that when I play sound in flash, the center speaker volume is about 3 times as loud as all the other speakers. Although this gives a nice and clear sound for presentations, this can be a pain when you want to listen to music.
my setup
For me, this is a bit awkward, because I have a big room where my speakers are positioned for my TV. My computer is next to my tv, but my center speaker is not in front of my pc monitor, but rather in front of my tv. Due to this, the right ear gets way more sound than my left one. Strangely enough, it weren't all the applications that had trouble with this. My music player plays everything equally throughout my speakers.
the mixer
The creative mixer (startup console) has several ways of tweaking this. Like assigning what channels to play if sound gets played through L/R, and their individual volume bars. You can guess it maybe. Changing these settings affected both applications differently. I could use the sliders to fix one, and then mess up the other. So when I went through all my settings I couldn't find what causes this.
CMSS is the fault here
I went reading this forum, and came to this post: http://forums.creative.com/t5/Sound-Blaster/How-to-enable-sound-for-my-center-rear-and-side-speakers-using/td-p/52 What gives, this option is not available when you are in Audiocreation mode. So it shouldn't affect my sound right? WRONG!
the problem
Even though you can't tweak the settings during audio creation mode, the settings are still in affect. So you have to switch to entertainment mode to access the CMSS-3D. I went there, and I had stereo enhancing surround enabled. When I changed that, it solved my problem. Since during audio creation, I mainly use stereo applications, I do not need surround enhancement.
my setup now
I turned it off, and as suspected, windows only parses sound to the left and right, not the other channels, even in audio creation mode. In the mixer, I have enabled output to all 7 channels I have for L/R output, and now the sound gets balanced to all my speakers. True, I get stereo sound over all the speakers, but when I want to use surround, I switch to the entertainment mode anyway.
Could a mod sticky this? I think its worth to have this stickied.

So my touchpad wasn't working and I have an HP dv6-6135dx. It started being messed up shortly after I took my PC apart to upgrade the screen. Sometimes it worked perfectly, sometimes it was completely unresponsive, sometimes the ring around the touchpad was lit, other times it wasn't etc.... It got worse and worse to the point where the touch pad almost never worked.
I followed this guide, and it didn't fix the problem; however, this got me thinking, and I pulled the keyboard out and reseated the touchpad cable where it connects right under there. BAM works perfectly. THANK YOU so much for this post, for some reason I didn't think to reseat the cable... I must have not plugged it back in completely when I took my laptop apart. You can find the service manual for the dv6t here Its in the first post

Please Read This if You Need Help Setting Up Email...

Hi Everyone!
If you are hoping to use your Nokia phone for send and receiving emails you will need to set this up prior to use.
You may find that your phone has already been setup to send and receive emails by your network. This will be for the email address that has been provided to you by your network. If you would like to set up your phone for another email account, like your private or work email account, this will need to be set up by you.
The easiest way to do this is to order the settings from our site. You can do this from this link: Nokia Settings Page Here you can order all the settings you might need, to get your email settings click on Order Advance Settings and choose email when prompted.
Dont worry if you can't see your email provider in that list, if you have Nokia PC Suite installed you can connect your phone to your PC and configure your email account with some software.
If you have a 9500, 9300 or 9300i communicator you can go here: Nokia Configuartion Tool
If you have 3220, 6230i, 8800, 6810, 6820 or 6822 you can go here: Nokia Email Configuration Tool
If you have a series 60 phone like a 6680 or 7610 etc you can install the Settings Wizard from here: Nokia Settings Wizard. This application will attempt to configure your email settings for you. You will need a working installation of PC Suite to install this from your PC. If you are able to get the installation file on to your phone you will be able to install from there.
If your phone has not been listed in any of the above points, then unfortunately you will need to configure the phone manually. If you need to do this you will have to find out some basic information first:
Your incoming server address
Your outgoing server address
Do you require a secure incoming/outgoing connection?
Do you need SSL?
Your email provider will be able to provide all this information, if you get stuck during the setup on what you should be entering for a setting, your email provider will be able to help you out.
Hope this is enough to help some of you out, any comments are welcome - just send me a PM.
Cheers
Karim

Road Runner is a pain at times to get to work on both Wi-Fi and EDGE. It seems as if their outgoing mail server doesn't like to roam. CWMX is ONLY for use on the cellular network, and if you plan on using Wi-Fi to send e-mails periodically, CWMX will NOT work.
My solution: Sign up for a GMAIL account, and forward your e-mails to the GMAIL account (provided POP access is enabled). Just log-in to this GMAIL account with your iPhone, and you'll get all your e-mails! If you need any help, let me know, I'll be glad to get you some directions.

"Please Read This Before Posting Here" font large enough?

To whom it may concern,
Perhaps if you can't change anything else maybe changing the size of that font might help.
Really, (and clearly) something needs to be changed about the way Discussions is organized. I see nothing but excuses about topics being mistakenly posted in the wrong forums.
I hope that something "is" being done to correct this issue in Discussion forums. Personally, I feel that far too many new users are posting in the wrong forums. The quantity of how many is way beyond what should be seen in my opinion. This has to show some proof that the way the Discussions is setup is just not working properly and corrections need to be made. And not just here in the Feedback About Discussions forum but across the board.
One can understand perhaps an erroneous topic being posted in, for example, 10.3 and earlier whereas it should be posted in the 10.4 Tiger forum where no huge banner states posting procedure but when one sees the amount of off topics in this forum it is just a joke now. Obviously, these users are not posting here intentionally knowing it is the wrong forum. For what ever reason they have wound up here and don't realize that it is incorrect. I believe it "is" the responsibility of the forums to make sure these posts are posted correctly and not by just moving them but to change the way the discussions are setup/operate so that it doesn't happen to begin with.
Please do something,

J.K. ROFLing,
What do you suggest littleshoulders?
I have made suggestions, whereas others have not but have also asked for changes here in regards to posting topic probems.
A suggestion I have made was to force the user whichever way they enter discussions to fill in a form that directs the user to the most appropriate forum. This doesn't need to be a long form but I'm sure you have seen this type of form on other sites that narrow a search down.
I'm certainly not an expert (I assume Apple has enough on staff to handle the logistics) and would only venture a guess as to what might be asked on the form to narrow the search.
Most importantly, I can't believe that the form would be any more labor intensive on the user than navigating through the Discussion pages to get to an appropriate forum. And quite frankly, even if it were it would certainly direct the user to an appropriate forum saving huge amounts of wasted time trying to get their support.
"Computer: iMac G3
OS version: OS X v10.3.9
What is you computer problem or support topic: Terminal problem"
I'm sure there would have to be other menu options (pop-ups and user filled info) for this type of search process but that is an abbreviated example for this excercise.
These directing forms are used all over the internet to direct the user to the appropriate product, support or otherwise.
I contend that the way that Discussions is presented currently that it needs this type of user interface to work properly.
In closure, I have to say that I don't believe in status quo and think that any change for the better is welcome and I bet all those novice users who struggle with posting topics correctly would agree. They obviously need more help than what is currently offered with posting.
regards,
littleshoulders

Security Update 2010-005

I noticed that I updated to the new Security Update 2010-006 BEFORE updating the prior one sent
which is "2010-005" ( 005 versus 006 ), should I still go ahead and update the previous or is it
pointless to do so. I worry about causing problems or if I need to go back somehow and redo both in order. Can someone please let me know! Thanks

Strange I just noticed on the Downloads page http://support.apple.com/en_US/downloads
that it shows
*"Security Update 2010-006 (Snow Leopard)"*
*"Security Update 2010-005 is recommended for all users and improves the security of Mac OS X."*
But when you click on that link the 005 doesn't show up I guess it's an typo error but this is what
makes things confusing when trying to update as I didn't notice it before but then noticed it tonight.
I actually don't even see it in the downloads page anymore I have to actually click on the link from the Software Updater menu only. All I see is *Snow Leopard (Client) Security Update 2010-005*
the "client" has me boggled are there 3 different Snow leopards (Server, Client, Server-Client)?
This is cumbersome. I wonder if updating is even really necessary as each update takes more space, perhaps it's their way of making your computer slow so that your forced to keep buying more stuff from them etc.

Looks like Apple did the same thing with Lion that Microsoft did with Vista. Brought it on the market before it was ready.
I run a MacBook Pro and upgrading to Lion caused me two days of trouble and computer crash. Router settings removed and router blocked. Dongle not recognised, you name it.
In the end, I gave up and using my Snow Leopard installation disk and a Time Machine Backup finally got my computer up and running again. Thanks to Lion, I think I'll stay with OS X 10.6.8 at least it's reliable.
