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).

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 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,

ISync 2.2 and Mac OS X 10.4.6 Update released: READ THIS before installing

Apple has released iSync 2.2 as part of the Mac OS X 10.4.6 Update package, and it has serious ramifications for current or first-time users of iSync. READ this information below before you perform the installation. This information is extracted from Technical Information Library article 303419, found here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303419
iSync 2.2: Read before updating to Mac OS X 10.4.6 or later, or before first sync
iSync 2.2, included with the Mac OS X 10.4.6 Update, works with many phones. However, if you have an existing phone that you sync with iSync in Mac OS X 10.4 through 10.4.5, there are some important steps you should follow before you update to Mac OS X 10.4.6 or later, as well as after you update.
Before you update to Mac OS X 10.4.6 or later
1. Make sure that all of the contact and calendar data that you want to sync is on your computer.
2. Perform a sync with your devices before upgrading to Mac OS X 10.4.6 to make sure the information on your computer is up to date, and to resolve any conflicts between your devices and computer.
3. If you have modified iSync or installed third-party software to support your specific model of phone, or if if iSync 2.2 specifically adds support for your specific model of phone, you should consider removing your phone from iSync, undoing these changes and uninstalling that software before upgrading. Your phone will not work with iSync after applying the Mac OS X 10.4.6 Software Update and your third party software will need to be updated.
Note: Reudo's Sync for Mac is not affected and does not need to be uninstalled prior to updating.
If you skip these steps, you will see this message after upgrading: "Plug-in for this phone model is missing. Install that phone's plug-in if you want iSync to support it."
4. Make sure that your phone is configured to use its memory to store contacts instead of a SIM card. The steps on how to do this vary from phone to phone—consult your device's documentation for how to check its configuration, and if necessary how to change your phone to store contacts in its memory.
5. Make sure your phone has the correct date and time set.
6. Make sure that you have a current backup of your Address Book and iCal data.
Refer to the article for additional instructions and an illustrated example of the steps to perform before installing the update.

as the jump to intel progresses, so too will incompatibilities between PPC and intel mac. this will force us all to buy more apple.

DO THIS! Before you update!

Want a trouble free 10.4.7 update? Then do ALL of the following 7 steps. Sure, its a few extra steps, but certainly worth the trouble.
Here the list:
1. backup your data and/or clone your drive.
2. Repair permissions. (before and after update)
3. Use a utility like ONYX to clean your system caches.
4. Use a utility like Disk Warrior to verify and/or rebuild your directory.
5. Download the Combo updater (do not use Software Update)
6. Unplug all Firewire and USB drives and devices from computer
7. Run installer
I ALWAYS do all of the above before an OS update and I've never had a single problem.
Most of the time (not always,) when people are blaming Apple for problematic updates, they should be blaming themselves for not maintaining and backing up their systems properly. An OS update on top of a system with directory errors is the number one reason for erratic behavior. Disk Utility costs $100, but it takes care of directory errors. Be safe not sorry.
Powermac G4 dual 1.25, 2gb Ram, 17 + 20 inch Apple display Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Here's the long version I posted elsewhere:
Every time an update is released, ton's of people claim it broke their system.
And, I've never had a single update mess up my computer since OS 8.1.
I just today installed the 10.4.7 update on two different machines, and both are still running as good as they were before (and actually slightly improved).
There are several things that everyone should do before installing a major update like this.
First, and foremost, if there is anything even remotely wrong in your existing installation, updating is going to cause them to show up. So, even if you are not aware of an existing problem, updating will bring it out of hiding.
So, That brings us to the first point.
1) Make sure everything is definitely 100% perfect before you update. It will not help if anything is wrong before you get started (even if symptoms are not present, problems can be hiding somewhere).
So, fix any potential problems before you update
2) Repair Permissions immediately before updating. This can spare you a ton of trouble.
3) Disconnect any external accessories (FireWire & USB drives, Cameras, Graphics Tablets, etc.).
4) Check your disk hard drive for errors. Boot up from your restore CD and Check your disk for errors using Disk Utility. Use repair if any are found.
5) Reboot your system before installing any updates. Do not install updates while you have any programs open, or on a system that you have been using. Always reboot immediately before installing an update. This way you know that all your programs are 100% for sure closed.
6) Disable any anti-virus program you have installed. This will ensure that your anti-virus system does not block your update from being installed properly (if it saw the activity as a potential virus attack).
7) Never install a major update without backing up your entire hard drive to another bootable drive (such as an external FireWire hard drive). I did this twice before this update (once on each system). It only takes about a half-hour to an hour. It will save you a lot of problems later if something goes wrong.
If you have a backup, and something goes wrong, you just restore from your backup, and you're right back to where you were before the update.
Every single company will tell you to backup before you install an update. It's right there in the warning that you must click past (you just have to read it).
That brings us to the next one:
8) Actually take the time to read that license agreement and warning that comes up on the screen before you actually install the update. Yes, it may be 10 pages long, but it's going to tell you about things you should know before you install.
9) For OS updates, choose the "Combo" version when you have a choice (you'll need to go to Apple's website to download it).
The Delta version only updates files that have changed since the immediately prior release.
The software update version replaces even less than the "Delta" version. It only downloads the specific updates you need to go from your updated version of the current OS to the next one.
The "Combo" version replaces all the files that have changed since the major release (10.4.0).
So, with the Combo update, you will often have better success since your corrupted system files are most likely to be replaced.
The Combo update is basically almost like a fresh install that keeps your settings in-tact.
The Delta update is more like a band-aid that applies the changes.
So, go for the Combo update.
10) After you install the update, and the system is back up and running, reboot and start up again. This clears out anything that may be left in memory from the installer (even if you just rebooted to complete the installation, reboot again).
11) Reset the PRAM after installing a major update. This never hurts, and can clear out any small bugs stored in your settings.
12) Don't forget to repair permissions again after the update. You can never do this too frequently. Do it often, and you'll save yourself some trouble.
Hope this helps those of you who have not yet performed your upgrade (and those of you who will install future upgrades).
These basic preparations steps will save you down-time. And, an hour or so of preparation to save 2 or more days of down-time is definitely a fair trade.
Hope this helps. Good luck all.

Since the latest update I cannot send photos Actual size or large. Medium size is as large as they go. I select Large and Actual, but to no avail. I was always able to do this before the update. I photo and I am up to date on everything. Any ideas?.

Dont read this if you dont want to make money

MAKE LOTS OF MONEY QUICKLY, GUARANTEED 100%, NO SCAM!
Turn 6.00 into 42,000! This is true!!.... Read this carefully to find out how!!....
READING THIS WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!
I found this on a bulletin board and decided to try it. A little while back, I was browsing
through newsgroups, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands
of cash within weeks with only an initial investment of .00! So I thought, "Yeah right, this 
must be a scam", but like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading.
Before you get skeptical, just take a few minutes to finish reading.
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS
WITH THIS PLAN, YOU REALLY CAN MAKE TONS OF TOTALLY LEGAL, FAST AND EASY CASH MONEY!! IT WORKS!!!
BUT YOU HAVE TO FOLLOW IT CAREFULLY FOR IT TO WORK CORRECTLY AND IN YOUR FAVOR!!!! WITH ALL
THE MONEY YOU ARE GONNA MAKE, YOU WILL SOON GET EVERYTHING YOU'VE ALWAYS DREAMED OF!!!!
ALL YOU DO IS...
All you do is send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and address stated in the article. You then
place your own name and address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at
least 200 newsgroups. (There are thousands.) No catch, that was it . So after thinking it over,
and talking to a few people first, I thought about trying it. I figured, what have I got to
lose except 6 stamps and 6.00, right? Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little
worried about the legal aspects of it
all. So I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that
it is indeed legal!
AND THEN GUESS WHAT...
Then I invested the measly 6.00. Well, GUESS WHAT!!... Within 7 days, I started getting money
just kept coming in. In my first week, I made about 25. By the end of the second week I had
made a total of over 1,000! In the third week I had over 10,000 and it's still growing. This
is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over 42000, and it's still coming in
rapidly. It's certainly worth 6. and 6 stamps. By the way, I have spent more than that on the
lottery in the last month!! Let me tell
you how this works and most importantly, why it works.... also, make sure you print a copy of
this article NOW, So you can get the information off of it, as you need it.
SO LET'S GET STARTED AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS
STEP 1:
Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on eash piece of paper, "PLEASE PUT MY 
NAME ON YOUR MAILING LIST." Also, be sure to include your name and address. Now, get 6 U.S.
$1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of paper so the bill will not be seen
through the envelope, to prevent thievery. Next, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes
and seal them. You should now have 6 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating the
above phrase, your name and address email
, and a $1.00 bill. What you are doing is creating a service by this. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL!
STEP 2 :
Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses:
#1 Randall Hines 22 Stature Dr. Newark DE 19713
#2 Mike Sharrer 921 West State St. Coopersburg PA 18036
#3 Travis Montgomery 2211 Elmers Lane Norfolk NE 68701
#4 James Adair the third 22 Over Rd. Feasterville PA 19053
#5 Michael Lescault 123 Rhode Island Ave. Pawtucket, RI. 02860
#6 Michael Hendrock 106 S.academy St. Lodi, Ohio 44254
STEP 3:
Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other names up (6 becomes 5,
5 becomes 4, etc.) and add YOUR Name as number 6 on the list.
STEP 4:
Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as close to original as possible.
If you do not live in the U.S. or there is a foreign address, you must put an international
stamp on your envelopes. Now, post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups. ( I think
there are close to 24,000 groups in all.) All you need is 200, but remember, the more you post,
the more money you make!!
DIRECTIONS FOR POSTING TO NEWSGROUP BULLETINS
STEP 1: You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own posting. Simply put you
cursor at the beginning of this letter and drag your cursor to the bottom of this letter. Then
select 'copy' from the edit menu.
This will copy the entire letter into the computer's temporary memory.
STEP 2: Open a blank 'notepad' or word processor file and place your cursor at the top of the
blank page. From the 'edit' menu select 'paste'. This will paste a copy of the letter into
notepad so that you can add your name to the list.
STEP 3: Save your new notepad file as a *.txt file. If you want to do your postings in different
sittings, you'll always have this file to fo back to.
STEP 4: Use your Internet provider and search engines to find various newsgroups (on-line forums,
message boards, chat sites, discussions).
STEP 5: Visit these message boards and post this article as a new message by higlighting the
text of this letter and selecting paste from the edit menu. Fill in the Subject, and this will
be the header that everyone sees as they scroll through the list of postings in a particular
group. Then click the post message button. You're done with your first one!
Congratulations...
THAT'S IT! All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post away. After you get the
hang of it, it will only take about 30 seconds for each posting!!
** REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE!! ----BUT YOU HAVE
TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200**----- That's it!
You will begin receiving money from around the world within days! You may eventually want to
rent a P.O. Box due to the large amount of mail you will receive. If you wish to stay anonymous,
you can invent a name to use , as long as the postal service will deliver it.
JUST MAKE SURE ALL THE ADDRESSES ARE CORRECT
WITH 200 POSTINGS
Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies ( a very low example). So then I made 5.00
with my name at #6 on the letter. Now, each of the 5 persons who just sent me $1.00 make the
MINIMUM 200 postings, each with my name at #5, and only 5 persons repond to each of the original
5, that is another 25. Then those 25 each make 200 MINIMUM posts with my name at #4, and only
5 relies to each, and I will bring in an additional125! Now, those 125 persons turn around
and post the MINIMUM 200 with my
name at #3 and only receive 5 replies each, and I will make an additional 625! OK, now here
is the fun part... Each of those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with my name at #2,
and they each only receive 5 replies, that just made me 3125!!! Those 3,125 persons will all
deliver this message to 200 newsgroups with my name at #1, and if still 5 persons per 200 newsgroups
react, I will receive an amazing 15625!
With an original investment of only 6! AMAZING!
DO IT OVER AND OVER
When your name is no longer on the list, you just take the latest posting in the newsgroups,
and send out another 6 to names on the list, putting your name at #6 again. Then start posting
again. That's it! Do you realize that thousands of honest people just like you all over the
world are joining the Internet and reading these articles everday? So can you afford 6 and
see if it really works?? I think so..
People have said, "what if the plan is played out and no one sends you the money?" So what!
What are the chances of that happening when there are tons of new honest users who are joining
the Internet and newsgroups everyday? So, are you willing to give it a try? Estimates are about
20,000 to 50,000 new bulletin board users everyday, with thousands of those joining the Internet
itself. ---Remember please play FAIRLY! This ensures a huge circle of wealth that grows with
the Internet audience!!! Everyone
benefits!!! Remember To Send The Six Envelopes To The Above Addresses, In Order To Create The
Legal Service. At first I was scared to try this, but once I research it, I found that it is
totally legal. When you send the six envelopes out, you create a service, a legal service.
The Internet audience is expanding all the time. The audience is like an equity stock on the
stock market, continuously going up. If you still think this is a fraud, take a few minutes
to check it out, then.... you can start
raking in the
cash!!
THIS CAN WORK IF WE ARE ALL IN IT TOGETHER!!!!

What a pile of dreck !

If you can no longer hear callers, cannot hear your voicemail, and are tearing your hair out trying to get any help from the obvious sources (your service provider, Nokia, your local store) - do not panic.
Call 121, as if you are making a vm call. While it is connecting, adjust the volume control button on the right of the phone. You will find that this volume control button operates on a 1-10 scale and is completely different from the one that is normally adjustable from the main screen, which operates on a 1-30 scale. Hopefully you will start to hear the recorded voice and all will be well.
This is not mentioned anywhere in the handbook or any of the online resources. I eventually found a clue via a different help site - but couldn't find where the 2nd volume control was. Thank goodness I eventually stumbled upon it by accident.
I know I am not the only one to have lost connection with a caller half-way through a conversation. It must be a design fault of some sort. I am just relieved that I did not follow the Nokia diagnostics advice to reset my phone to factory settings (after backing up etc etc), or pay out vast ££s for the privilege of sending off my phone for a non-existent repair.
I am not techy - but I am posting this in the hope that it will save others the frustration, expense and time I have wasted over the past 3 days trying to get any sense out of Vodafone and Nokia. (I am sorry if that breaches some form of discussion board protocol - but it is a fact.)
If anyone from Nokia is reading this will you PLEASE update your handbooks to include this information, and take account of it within your online diagnostics page, which told me to restore factory settings. (Fortunately I have no idea how to backup data on my phone, and the advice didn't tell me either.)
If anyone from Vodafone is reading this, will you PLEASE train your sales staff and helpdesk staff to understand this problem.
Feeling calmer now ... off to make a large mug of coffee.

This is normal an also the same with other phone brands and OS. Even on android and IOS the call volume is different from the general volume of the phone. If you have a non-lumia nokia phone, it is also the same.

I am having problems when i have minimized windows and try to open a new window it will open all minimized windows along with the new window. It just changed when mozzilla updated. It did not do this before the update.

I am having problems when i have minimized windows and try to open a new window it will open all minimized windows along with the new window. It just changed when mozzilla updated. It did not do this before the update. Before the update if i had minimized windows they would stay minimized when i opened a new window. Please help ,I would guess it is just a setting somewhere but i cannot figure out where the setting is. Thanks jason

Read This Before Updating To 10.1

Read this link before upgrading tp Final Cut Pro 10.1:

Feel free to add to this discussion...
Maybe this should be "pinned" to the top of this Forum? can that be done?

Answered my own question thanks Just in case anyone reads this far... rolling back to previous version was as follows:
1. Sent iTunes 8.1 to trash (emptied trash not sure if I needed to but it felt good to flush 8.1 down the pan
2. Removed icon from dock (as it now points to iTunes in trash)
3. Moved Music\iTunes\iTunes Library to Music\iTunes\Previous iTunes Libraries\ and renamed it iTunes Library (8.1)
4. Copied Music\iTunes\Previous iTunes Libraries\iTunes Library 2009-03-15 to Music\iTunes\ and renamed iTunes Library
5. Downloaded 8.02 from http://support.apple.com/downloads/iTunes8_0_2_forMac and installed
6. iTunes now loads in 5 secs (instead of 32 secs with 8.1!) thanks
...and remember Tim - never, ever, EVER (on pain of death!) update to latest of ANYTHING until it is at least version .01 or better still .02 (as I always get obscure problems that probably won't be reported in .01 update!) - you know it makes sense Rodney!! :o)

ROKU SoundBridge users read this BEFORE installing iTunes7

The following was emailed to me today from ROKU
" With the release of iTunes 7.0 yesterday, Apple has changed some of the underlying technology that allows the SoundBridge to communicate directly with iTunes. We hope to have an iTunes 7.0- compatible release of the SoundBridge software soon; however, at this time all SoundBridges are incompatible with the music sharing feature of iTunes 7.0. We recommend that SoundBridge owners wait for a SoundBridge update before upgrading to iTunes 7.0. Users wishing to upgrade to iTunes 7.0 (or who have already upgraded) can install the free Firefly media server to share music libraries with SoundBridge. Firefly is available at http://www.rokulabs.com/firefly"
Had I have known earlier it would have saved a lot of time reloading iTunes 6

+"I can't emphasize this enough:+
+It is recommended that you backup your system prior to installing any updates.+
+He who does not backup can't say he hasn't been warned!"+
Aw come on "a brody".... where's the fun in that? Anyway, I think you are spitting into the wind. Anyone who is not aware, at this point in computer history, of the fragility of digital data is probably not going to even be reading this. I'm afraid we are in for another round of "disaster" and "catastrophe" and "10.5.1 bricked my computer" and "10.5.1 ate my files" and "my mother had a hernia and it's Apple's fault" threads.

Read this if you need a security code (Sticky)

Hi Everyone!
I have seen a few posts asking "What is my security code?". So I thought I would make this post. Basically most Nokia phones all use the same security code by default, this is 12345. All phones are set with this code from the factory and will stay using 12345 until it is changed.
If you have changed your security code from 12345 then you would normally need to take your phone into a Nokia Service Point. Here an authorised engineer would reset the code back to its default of 12345. You can find your nearest Nokia Service Point on this page:
www.nokia.com/repair
Unfortunately there is nothing that can be done other than visit an engineer if you forget the security code , they will need to reset the code to the factory default for you.
Cheers
Karim

There have been some reported cases where operators have changed security codes on some phones.
In these cases, the security code will be shown on the product information label on the box, usually close to the IMEI number. This number is not always marked as a security code.

Read this if you need a security code

Hi Everyone!
I have seen a few posts asking "What is my security code?". So I thought I would make this post. Basically most Nokia phones all use the same security code by default, this is 12345. All phones are set with this code from the factory and will stay using 12345 until it is changed.
If you have changed your security code from 12345 then you would normally need to take your phone into a Nokia Service Point. Here an authorised engineer would reset the code back to its default of 12345. You can find your nearest Nokia Service Point on this page:
www.nokia.com/repair
Unfortunately there is nothing that can be done other than visit an engineer if you forget the security code , they will need to reset the code to the factory default for you.

Come on micheals There is no need to be an engineer to do that! For Nokia 301 Press "Menu" button. Then select "Settings". Scroll until "Security" and press on it. Finally select "Access codes".
Now select "Change secur. code". Answer "Yes" and you can change your default security code (12345) with another one (mine is 54321 ...)
Hope it helps.

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.

PLEASE...Read This BEFORE Installing 10.5....

I know everyone (including myself) is excited about the new release. But, PLEASE....back up your stuff before you install the new OS. I know there are going to be a million posts saying "Leopard Broke Whatever..." It happens every time. This can be so easily avoided by making a backup of at least all critical data. Better would be to clone using CCC or SD to a spare drive. What? You can't afford a hundred bucks for an extra HD? But you can afford to loose your precious data or even your entire system? I really don't see the logic especially now when you can get a 250GB drive for so little and you can even use the cloning software for free. Most people have more than that invested just in iTunes downloads!

I don't use Backup since I don't have a .Mac account. I don't even know if it'll allow for a bootable backup that you can restore. If not, then get a bootable, external HD, and make a bootable backup/clone before upgrading/updating and ensure that works like the original. That allows you to revert to the previous good state without having to reinstall anything. Then, peruse these
