Problems with Speed, Accounts and External HD in Leopard

*This is my setup:*
Two Macs: 1. Macbook 2.2ghz with N capability
2. Macbook Pro with N capability
Router: Airport Extreme (802.11n) bought two days ago. Therfore new
Software: All uppgraded & OS X Leopard
Problem:
- Could not connect to other accounts in the network after upgrading software with Leopard
- Could not connect to airport disk
Message: "Connecting..." in finder, but it never does, but both acc and hd shows up in finder doh.
Also there is an issue with speeds, i have set it too 5ghz and only N. The speed is overall 0.5mb pr second or slower when i send fils. It should be around 5-10 mb pr second i think. So this is not funny

Problems with Adobe account and Adobe support!

We bought in December 2012 "Creative Cloud for teams" (10 licenses).
I have since started our problems with support Adobe that continue today: (
1. We do not receive invoices by e-mail - every month we have to ask several times adobe support on the current invoice and then wait for it a few weeks!
2. We receive e-mail confirmation with errors - confirmation of transactions on a credit card that we receive by e-mail are wrong - no part of the information.
3. No confirmation on Adobe account - on account do not have Adobe confirmation of financial operations for the month.
4. No information about the subscription on Adobe account - There is no information about subscriptions purchased
We contact every few days with Adobe and get the standard answer "please wait 2-3 business days..." ..... and nothing.
Adobe... why you're doing jokes about the business customer?

Ehhh...
Every company in Poland who buys a service or product Adobe need VAT invoice (
required document).
I have in my Adobe account information only payments for the month of December.
For this month I print the invoice (screenshot below).
But unfortunately there is no information on payments for the next month - a technical error Adobe account!
My friend also has a company and subscription and have all the information in Adobe account (screenshot below).

Problem with .mac account and mail 2.05 (os x 10.4.4)

hi!
i am not able to add a .mac account in mail 2.05. system is os x 10.4.4.
.mac settings in system preference work fine, on my cube with os 10.3.9 i can add the .mac account without problems.
in mail under 10.4.4 i can´t even select accounts besides IMAP, POP and EXCHANGE. if i delete mails plist and even the mail file and achieving a "virginal mail" i just can select these 3 accounts (POP,IMAP,EXCHANGE). strange because if i setup .mac settings in system preferences before setting up a POP mail account (i have 3 POP accounts besides .mac), the .mac account is automatically set up in mail. but even than i can´t set up manually (another) .mac account (can´t be selected in account pulldown menue) as well as soon as i delete it it can´t be resetup.
no way with new user, same procedure. i reinstalled mail from tiger-dvd as well as reinstalling 10.4.4 combo update and repair disc permissions. no way to get .mac to work the normal way.
has anyone any idea?
thanks so long,
peter

the empty folder ~/Library/Mail/ at root level seemed to be the problem of not being able to activating the .Mac account in mail. after copying this folder onto harddisk again (i have a new "20 iMac at work with 10.4.4) the problem was solved. no idea how to get this folder again besides installing a blank 10.4.x install onto external firewire hdd or having a second system...
thanks so long.
i guess i made a mistake when migrating my old mail prefs from 10.3.x to 10.4.x blank install when moving the folders to 10.4.x maybe i have first choosen the ~/Library/Mail/ folder at root level and when recognizing that mail is not working with new user, i´m sure i might have deleted the whole mail prefs and mail folder on root level and copied the whole stuff again into USER/Library/Mail/. Therefore the folder ~/Library/Mail/ at root level became empty. i purchased .Mac just a few days ago so i recognized this failure just now...

Problem with Web Clipping and External Application

When I use Web clipping with INLINE rendering on usual sites I can move under links, not leaving a portal.
But if I try to make it via the self-made provider with External Application then links do not work.
I press them and it appear in the same place!
Authorization via External Application passes successfully, that is the page is displayed correctly.
But links do not work.
In what there can be a problem?
Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2)

In order to prevent some urls and internal websites from being cached use url bypassing. This way these urls will not be cached and the users can directly use them without being asked to log in.
To enable transparent error handling and dynamic authentication bypass, and to configure static bypass lists, use the bypass global configuration command. To disable the bypass feature, use the no form of the command.

Problems with animated masks and external images

I have an instance of a movieClip on the stage and I load an external JPG into the movieClip. The movieClip is masked by a layer that begins animating on a certain frame. As soon as I reach that frame my externally loaded JPG disappears. The movieClip doesn't mind being masked, but as soon as the mask animates the external image goes away. The mask animation is shapes drawn frame by frame.
It is interesting to note that if I create a Class and load the JPG into the movieClip (or do this in a constructor) I do not experience this problem - it is when the JPGs are loaded into an instance of the movieClip that lives on the stage that I encounter this. Unfortunately that is not an option in my project (since I have to get the path for the JPG from an xml file I am loading).
Could someone please help me with this?

that's a flash bug.

Problem with speed after adding external html "template

HI
I created nice looking html "template" for my site in program Aristeer 2. Basicly it created 3 files for me- *.HTML (about 10kb) *.CSS(avout 25kb) and *.js(javascript about 7kb). I was thinking that it will work perfectly ,when i will just define new dreamweaver site and open the html file in my Dreamweaver CS3.
problem is,that everything ,what i want to do,in this site takes enormly long time...if i just click to open my html file,it takes about 2 minutes to open it,later,when am trying to delete some picture,delete some text,add some ApDiv,create table etc,it takes really a lot of time to do it...
am just wondering why,cos am still working with ,lets say,small files,so where is the problem?
can please somebody help me how to fix it? (when i open another site,that i designed all by Dreamweaver CS3,there is no problem like that....)
thanks a lot
radko

I have no idea what the problem is. I did download your page and I have no idea how you can even work with that file in DW. Every time I moved my cursor, the elements either disappeared or reappeared as I moved over the page.
Looks like every element on that page has been placed inside an absolutely positioned div which may or may not account for the 'slowness'..
I did notice a lag (slowness) with the mouse movement - but once I managed to get open a content container, I did paste some text into it but it was all very slow.
I' put it down to the way the page has been created honestly. Even though it validates and no errors were found, that really is not the best way to create a web page. (sorry). I realise YOU did not create it, it was an automated process - I'd stay well away from it in future :-)

Problems with user account on external HD

I'm on a mac mini (Early 2009) running OS 10.9.5. Quite some time ago I moved my user account to an external disk named, let's say "My Disk" and things were running fine. Recently, however, I logged into my account but could not access any of my files. I logged through another account, checked the home directory in Preferences/Users & Groups, and found it to be in the right place, "/Volumes/My Disk/my_home_folder". I then manually navigated to my home folder, and when I selected it, it showed up as "/Volumes/My Disk 1/my_home_folder" (notice the numeral 1 after the name of the disk). This fixed the problem and I can now log on to my account, but:
This is the second time within a few days that the OS renamed the external HD spontaneously by adding a numeral
This numeral does not show on the disk image on the desktop, nor in disk utilities
I can rename the external disk to a different name without a numeral and repoint my account, but if I want to change the name back to it "My Disk", the OS will attach the numeral to it, when viewed in Preferences/Users & Groups.
Is there a fix other than deleting the user account, or re-installing OS?
tm

Answering my own question, this looks like a permissions issue. After repairing permissions the external disk was identified by its proper name (no numerals) and all functions were restored.

Problems with time machine and external hard drive

Hi all
In 2009 with my imac I bought a WD external hard drive which the computer says is 148GB formatted. I recall that the hard drive contained folders with files for the running of the hard drive when I bought it - and after it had been plugged in to a mac and used as a time machine, it no longer worked on windows computers.
Now I have used 195 GB on my computer's internal hard drive and wish to stop using the external hard drive as a time machine and instead use it for swapping files between computers and the like.
How can I wipe the time machine back ups and start using it as per usual again? do i need to obtain the WD files from somewhere?
thanks in advance
Nick

Problem with volume handle and external SWF

Hello I'm having 2 problems.
The first is that when loading an external swf in my main SWF I get this in the output window:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at audio_fla::list_1/frame1()
at flash.display::Sprite/constructChildren()
at flash.display::Sprite()
at flash.display::MovieClip()
at audio_fla::MainTimeline()
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
at audio_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()
But it still works. Its an mp3 player.
The other problem is that the loaded SWF has a volume controller. When I test the external SWF by itself it works fine. When I load it on my main SWF when I start to drag the handle on my volume slider and MOUSE_UP outside the handle it still keep dragging the handle.

Problem with GL account and Chart of Account config.

Hi Gurus,
I am facing a problem when executing a background job - like
G/L account 9999999999 is not defined in chart of accounts TATA.
i tried the combination with FSM1 tcode - but i was unable to proceed further.
infact i had some test data based on the production box.
how should i proceed further - any suggestions / guidances - welcome in advance.
Regards

HI
before creating GL accounts first u have to define accounts Groups then u have assign accout group to company code then you can create the GL accounts
for Ex: chart of accounts : ABC
           Account group    : SHCP
           Desciption           : share capital
           From no to No range : 100000 to 100999
         we can creat the GL accounts between these nos only
PLZ Reward points if it is usefull
Regards

Problems with itunes 10 and external hard drive

Hi
I was recently forced to change the internal hard drive on my G5 Tower, and the external hard drive where I keep my music library.
The new external drive had all my music files copied to it. I reloaded my itunes library files (that I had backed up from old computer) into my music folder and I named the new external drive as the media folder in Itunes preferences. The first time I used itunes it asked me if I wanted it to locate all files to which I pressed OK. itunes quickly found the majority of files and I cleaned up / organized the small mess left behind.
Trouble is a few problems have occurred. Firstly, itunes seems slow – there’s a sluggish pause flicking between tracks – where as before it used to snap into response. Occasionally I’m asked to locate files which I thought was a task it had already done - and every now and again when I check the external hard drive music library I find files have been moved from there album locations to ‘untitled’ folders, etc. I can only assume itunes is doing this. I’ve also noticed I can’t remove the external hard drive from the desktop without closing itunes first which never happened before.
This is getting somewhat frustrating. Can anybody advise?
Much appreciated.

Problems with Boot camp and External HDD's

Hi, I recently installed windows XP using Boot Camp, and everything worked fine, until yesterday when I tried to reboot into MAC from WINDOWS. It restarts back into windows everytime, and now I can't get back to mac! (using leopard, not snow leopard) Whats wrong?
Another thing, I have a 500gb Lacie ext HDD, and I can use it fine with mac, but when I tried to access it with windows, it won't work. It will appear in My Computer but when I log in it won't access the data. What can I do?
Im using the HDD for backups with time machine, is this why windows cant access it?
Thanks in advance

FAT32 will accessible from both Windows and OS X
If you don't want to reformat your ext drive you need something like http://www.paragon-software.com/home/hfs-windows/ or http://www.mediafour.com/products/macdrive/

I used a prepaid Visa card on ITunes. The card no longer has money on it. It keeps telling me that there is a problem with my account (it's out of money).

I do not have a regular credit card. I used a prepaid credit card on my ITunes account for a little while, but now the prepaid card is out of money. Every time I try to download new FREE apps, it says there is a problem with my account and that I need to put in new card information. There is no option for selecting none. I tried deleting the old information and entering it as a blank. It will not accept it. Every time I try to download free apps, it comes back with the account information page, and then I can go no further. I cannot even download an update to my IPad from Apple. Help!!

Problems with Photoshop performance and data transfer speed on iMac

Two months ago, I started noticing slow performances using Photoshop (above all using clone stamp tool) on my 27" iMac (late 2012). I did the AHT and I found that 8GB of 32GB RAM were broken.
I removed them but the problem didn't disappered, I also noticed that data transfer speed (both copy and paste from/to internal HD and from CF card/external HD) was really slow.
I tried many solutions suggested by Apple support, none of them worked out. At the end, I tried uninstalling and re-installing Photoshop: no more problems!!!
10 days ago, I received a new 8GB RAM module and so I installed it back... suddenly, the problem came back, I tried re-installing again Photoshop but the problem, this time, still persist!
Does anyone had the same experience? All other CC programs work well (LR, AE, Premiere...)

yes, it does!
what seems to be very strange to me is how data trasnfer speed could be affected!
(just to say, I've already tried reset of SMC and PRAM, I've tried with different accounts and I've also re-installed the OS, next step would be formatting the disk and installing the OS from zero)

I have 2 macbooks each with an account for me and one for my wife. I use one Macbook logged in with my account and my wife uses the other Macbook only loged in on her account. We both make regular time-machine back-ups each on a separate external disk

I have 2 Macbooks each with an account for me and one for my wife. I use one Macbook logged in with my account and my wife uses the other Macbook only logged in on her account. We both make regular time-machine back-ups each on a separate external disk. Is it possible to update her account on my macbook using her external disk without overwriting my stuff on the same Macbook and vice versa?

Time Machine does not do individual accounts. It records the complete drive. So if you were to use her TM backup on your Mac it would make your Mac just like hers. Both yours and her account on your MAC.
Just copy the missing files over from her Mac to yours. If there are differennt programs on each then they would need to be installed on both.
