(My suspicion is that the tiny antenna inside the
Mini is not as robust in dealing with marginal signal
conditions as the larger antennas in all the other
Mac products
There is, in fact, a reasonable consistency of reports indicating exactly that with the Mac mini. The supposition has commonly been that the nature of the mini's casing has an impact on signal, which seems reasonably possible and would account for lowered sensitivity, less reliable operation in marginal signal conditions, and higher susceptibility to interference.
Though it has to be said that Becca's situation should not, either by range or apparent signal strength, be marginal - particularly not when previous tests have been conducted with the mini in close proximity to the base station.
-- although I'm still open to the
possibility that current airport software in Macs is
less tolerant of some non-Apple routers.
The minis (and other wireless devices) I have in service in the network are variously connected via an Airport Extreme base station, an Airport Express and Belkin and Lexmark WAPs. Range varies between 15 and 55 feet and I've moved various wireless devices around to experiment. In the course of doing this I've noted marginally better signal stability at the 55 foot range between a mini and the Airport Extreme base station, but no real difference in signal quality between any of them.

I have a 2nd gen ipad. Since the latest ios update my ipad will not charge when hooked up to my computer running windows 7 and even though it shows that it syncs in Itunes, it will not download any apps. It just seems to skip that part.

I went to the apple store and they hooked up my ipad to a mac and it showed that it was charging and that apps would download. My ipones, touches, and ipods are not having any problems, just this ipad. It seems to be since I updated to the new ios. You can't even do a restore on it because it doesn't recognize it. It shows up top that it's doing that but nothing happens on the ipad. The computer seems to recognize the ipad, itunes recognizes it. It acts like it is communicating with it but it doesn't download anything and won't charge when it's hooked up to the USB port. THe Apple store says there is nothing wrong with this ipad which is about 6 mths old. So what now?

Most USB port do not supply enough current to charge the iPad.

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Since installing the latest update, whenever I try to play purchased videos, they open in the separate video window and immediately causes iTunes to crash and close.

Ever since installing the latest iTunes 10.4 update, I've been having trouble playing purchsased videos. When I try to play them, they open in an unseen new window and after a couple of seconds of audio, iTunes crashes and has to close. There isn't something wrong with the videos as they play fine on my iPod and I have played most of them before, but they just won't play in iTunes suddenly.
Can anyone help?

In Firefox 3.6, when I clicked on a bookmark it would open in a new tab. In 4.0, the bookmark open in an already open tab. How can I make 4.0 work the way 3.6 did when opening bookmarks?

I have already made sure the 'Open new windows in a new tab instead' option is checked. It doesn't make any difference (at least not with bookmarks).

Google search and other websites have a user preference that can be set to open a search result in a new tab or a new window, for users who are logged in to their website.
Otherwise, when you don't have a 3-button mouse or a scroll pad with "middle-click" functionality, you can use '''{Ctrl + Click}''' to open a hyperlink in a new Tab.

Everytime I press a bookmark, it opens in same tab. I would like each bookmark to open in a new tab.

When opening bookmarks,,they open in same tab.
How can I get each bookmark or link to open in new tab.
I have tried different settings in options/tabs and nothing chances.

You can middle-click a bookmarks to open the bookmark in a new tab just like you can with other links.

How do you set up the phone to save more "recent" phone calls than just for one week? I am only able to see recent phone calls under "all" tab for just one week. Is there a way to do it for a month?

You cannot do that on your iPhone -- however, you can go to your cellular carrier's site and see your recent calls. They go back to the beginning of your current billing period. For calls older than that, you can also look on your carrier's website and access your previous billing statements.

White flash from spry menu tab

Hi, I have an annoying problem with the spry menu tab on the
site
www.ISUCKAT_GOLF.net (without the dash) As you scroll down
the spry menu tab when you reach a tab that expands off to the
right you get an annoying but brief white flash. If you went to
"fun stuff' on the tab for instance then scrolled down to "That
really tees me...", when you scroll over it it expands but also
flashes white below for a millisecond. All the tabs that expand do
this. Any settings that can be changed to prevent this?
Thanks very much!

Adjust inline styles to suit your needs.

Bookmarks are missing from both my list and bookmark tab and I don't know if this was caused by plugin or due to lack of space in my internal HD. Please help?

Dear Community, I promise I'll try to be as concise as possible. I'm really desperate for help! I've read absolutely everything about missing bookmarks, but as you will see my problem is also about cursors and Google showing differently on screen.
It all started this day I was running short on storage space in my internat HD. Suddenly my computer showed that I had 0 KB available, and I just deleted some big mov files and restarted the computer. After the reboot, I opened FF and noticed that my bookmarks were missing and so was my reading list - my reading list is stored with the help of ReadItLater plugin (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/read-it-later/). I tried to google solutions for my problem and realized that something was weird with the way results were displayed.
So, I made some screenshots because it's really hard to explain what's going on by writing, so please take a look:
1. When I first open my FF, if I click on ReadItLater, I get this error message (code 0x80570016): [[click here|http://www.flickr.com/photos/81007892@N07/7423869970/]]
2. Then if I click on any link on the page, and go back to check my ReadItLater list, I can open it without getting an error message but still NO READING LIST is shown. Image: [[click here|http://flic.kr/p/cj2gPm]]
3. Now take a look on how Google is displaying results on FF! The text appears in Black/Green when it's really supposed to be displayed in Blue/Green/Black! The cursor is also messed up: when I try to click one of the links with the arrow, it turns into a type cursor instead of the usual hand or clicking cursor! Please see the image: [[click here|http://www.flickr.com/photos/81007892@N07/7423869468/]]
4. Here's a screenshot of the same Google search but this time done on Safari. Compare it with the previous image: [[click here|http://www.flickr.com/photos/81007892@N07/7423869252/]]
Any help will be much appreciated. I've already tried to reinstall FF again, and I've also deleted it and reinstalled FF but I never deleted profile/personal info that is in the Library Folder. Also, have tried to back up and replace the profile folder but my computer didn't allow me. I got a message saying it was not possible to copy the places.sqlite-wal file. I have done a search about it and I can say I never had a profile duplicate. Please help? I'm desperate and I can't lose my reading list or my bookmarks!
Thank you, Firefox community!

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Since a recent software update-most of my applications will no launch :-(

I ran Software Update this morning and after rebooting, several of my Apple applications won't even launch.
The apps that won't launch are Mail, Safari, iTunes, iPhoto in fact pretty much most of them. I am feeling very depressed and pretty much gutted that my beloved Mac laptop is going to the heavens and everything i have on it will go.. i did do a full back back up 4 weeks ago but i am unable to boot from the carbon copy clone because the laptop wont let me... can someone PLEASE PLEASE help me... i have tried going to the apple shop in brent cross london.. they only allocate 20 mins max for any issues so that was pretty much a waste of time...
i have always really looked after my laptop-infact it is imaculate, always done software upgrades weekly and do not have anything dodgy programme wise or third party wise for it to cause any issues.. at least i dont think i do..
i am very confused as i can use firefox to browse the web, word and address book, quicktime..so it cant be my hard drive can it.. have done full verify and disk repairs ( several times) and there seems to be no errors
it will not fire carbon copy cloner so that i can at least back up remainder of my photos of my baby daughter..
i unable to drag onto another harddrive for back up purposes either
i am convinved contrary to what the apple guys said randomly that my hard drive is naffed...i noticed they seem to say this for every problem that seems to be put upon them at brent cross or is just me.
I was running beta safari before this happened.. could this be a cause
I am by far not the most computer tech around but i am prepared to give anything ago... CAN ANYONE PLEASE take time out of there busy lives to help me resolve this issue.. i an finacially in a position just to go out and buy a replacement.. infact i dont want to.. i love my little G4!
i am very limited as what i can do and i am become very confused with the whole matter now..so many diffrent reasons why.. it is my first time as a user on the forums so i prey this works.
when i shutdown the computer and it starts up again, i blue world logo keeps flashing then a folder with the apple faces appears-what does that mean?
is there anyway to know if it is my hard drive going down the pan?
The apple shop said i should reboot from my back up-which i cannot do and delete the entire contents of my hard drive on the G4 and try reinstalling everything.. i very very reluctant to do this.. i have photos of my 4 year old since he was 1 min old.. i cant go there....the thought of.. as i said i have backed up fully everything twice and then the main ones like i-photo seprately as well..
i dont have much confidence in that as my 80gig porche lacie does not seem to be visible when i plug it into the computer.. though the other 30oG lacie appears fine... i wish i could do an incremental back up with CCC but it wont launch to cover myself?
Apologies for the rant but i have to get this resolved and this is the first time i have had a positive chance to think that you guys out there maybe able to help me.. Would make my week!!
many Thanks guys and hope to hear from you soon
Any advice/insight is welcomed!

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
How much free drive space is on the PBookG4?
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 10% to 15% free disk space at all times.
Insufficient disk space could be the cause of all these problems.
Have you tried booting from your install disk and check the drive for errors?
Are you running anti virus software by chance?

Desktop flashing & laptop 'stuck' since doing iPhoto software update

Recently I was alerted to a software upgrade to iPhoto/iMovie. I set this to go but my laptop seems to have got 'stuck' since installing the software update (which took 3 days of stopping & resuming). I cannot open iPhoto or any other software (even after restarting/rebooting). The wallpaper is flashing between a 'default' wave picture and a blank grey screen. There are no dock icons - just desktop icons & the headers at top of the screen eg Finder, time, battery %, wifi network etc (sorry not sure what they're called!). I cannot use my laptop. Also my Time Machine has stopped recognizing my back up external hard drive - even though it has not been removed. Can anyone help me please? My 'local' Apple Store is 1.5 hours away so hope someone can help me online?? TIA

Ever since the latest OS X update, my apps flash from active to inactive every few seconds.

Since the last OS X update 10.10.3, my apps flash from active to inactive and back again. It happens with all of my open applications, and it keeps me from typing accurately because the app, flashes to inactive while I am trying to type.
