Tiger and Facebook

I have a 5-year old intel MacBook that I use strictly for browsing. In the last week or so, Facebook pages have taken forever to load. I have a 10mpbs internet connection (DSL) and all other pages load just tine on this computer. I have another Macbook with Snow Leopard (about 2 years old) and Facebook loads on it just fine. I've tried Safari and Firefox and I get the same results. Is anyone else having this problem?

Hello,
See in each Browser which version of Flash it thinks it has...
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
Then... Try putting these numbers in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers, for the Interface you connect with...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Then Apply. For 10.5/10.6 Network, highlight Interface>Advanced button>DNS tab>little + icon.
DNS Servers are a bit like Phone books where you look up a name and it gives you the phone number, in our case, you put in apple.com and it comes back with 17.149.160.49 behind the scenes.
These Servers have been patched to guard against DNS poisoning, and are faster/more reliable than most ISP's DNS Servers.
Open Activity Monitor, Show:>All Processes, sort on CPU%, see if anything using too much CPU% when this happens, click on Memory tab, do you have many Pageouts? Click on the Disk Usage tab, how much free space?
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.

Emails and facebook notifications ...

Hi,
I've had my blackberry bold 9700 since the 11th June. Since then i've had troubles reciving emails and facebook notifications. Sometimes they come though but not for a good 15 mins - 1 hour and sometimes they don't even come through at all! does anyone know what i need to do? i tried a new hanset still didnt do it, rang o2 they dont know as all settings are right their end.. anyone? thanks

So you're not getting any data transfer to device, except when Google Maps is running?

My email account and facebook accounts have been compromised, how can I know if I have malware of a keylogger?

About 2 weeks ago my Yahoo email account and AIM email account had been compromised and the passwords changed. From what I was told/researched at the time, changing my passwords to more secure passwords was the best option.
I changed my passwords for the two accounts that had been compromised, and I even when as far to change my passwords for everything that I used frequently, and accounts that were tied to the email accounts, facebook, twitter, etc.
This morning at 12:28am (EST) my facebook was accessed by somebody other than me and my password changed. When I noticed this my first thought was to check to see if my email that I log in with was compromised. It had also underwent a password change.
Obviously the next thing I did was to try and change my passwords.
I had my AIM email send a change password form to my Yahoo email (which hasn't been tampered with this time) I followed the form and input a new password. After that, it brought me to a page where I was to enter the new password and sign in. When I input the new password it yet again said, "incorrect password or username". After I tried the new password a few more times it finally brought me to a screen saying basically that my account was locked due to suspicious activity and I still haven't been able to try and log in again.
I also can't access my Facebook account at all. I obviously can't send a new password to my email because I can't access it. Whenever I tried to send my info to an alternate email it wants me to answer a security question, and for some reason the answer I enter, which should be the correct answer, is said to be false.
Facebook offers another option of recovering your account by getting 3 friends to be sent security codes, I tried this method but it would never let me complete it because I locked my account. I locked my account after figuring out it was being tampered with. Whenever I try to get the security codes sent to 3 friends it ultimately leads me to a screen saying my account is locked and I need to sign in to unlock it, which is some major bull considering if I could log in I wouldn't need to be going through the process to begin with!
One friend has told me somebody maybe using some file to track my moves, a keytracker?
Is there anyway I can confirm that?
How can I get rid of it, how can I protect myself?
I've been using the internet almost daily since I was 8 years old, I'm now 20, this is the first of these kinds of problems I've ever had.
Protip: I run Mac OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.

Whatever is going on, it's extremely unlikely to be malware of any kind. See my Mac Malware Guide.
As to what is going on, it's hard to say, but if someone is targeting you specifically, it's not that hard for an experienced person to do. It may not even require actual hacking... see the story of Matt Honan's hacking:
http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2012/08/apple-amazon-mat-honan-hacking/
In short, his attacker managed to get access to Mr. Honan's Amazon account, which gave him access to the last 4 digits of Mr. Honan's credit card that was on file. That credit card was also on file with Apple, and those 4 digits were used to give him access to Mr. Honan's Apple ID. And from there all went to h***. No hacking required, just talking to folks on the phone and convincing them to do what the hacker wanted.
In addition, note that some kinds of accounts provide you with a way to give access to another person. For example, GMail provides a way to add someone else's account, giving them access to your e-mail. Hackers have been known to use such features to leave themselves hidden back doors, so they can keep getting in after you have changed the password. I don't know whether AIM or Yahoo have such features, but it's possible.
Finally, note that there are always possible issues with weaknesses in the servers. For example, right now, someone's selling an exploit kit for Yahoo mail. I don't know whether the vulnerability it relies on has been patched or not, but if it hasn't been, your attacker may be using that method to get access.
In any case, you need to address these issues with AIM, Yahoo and Facebook.

Firefox has been randomly crashing for two days. I always have google and facebook running. Firefox seems to crash at random times - no specific web page loading. My Firefox is up to date.

There can be multiple reasons for crashing. Seeing this article would be helpful as it lists out the solution for this-

Why yahoo/gmail retrieval and facebook app so so slow when in WIFI. But using the internet to check for emails and facebook is fast using the same WIFI connection??

Why yahoo/gmail retrieval and facebook app so so slow when in WIFI. But using the internet to check for emails and facebook is fast using the same WIFI connection??

Hi SandyS_VZW,
Yes tried resetting the wifi connection and problem still persist.
Here it is...to make it clear. Connected thru the same wifi at home...
-> emails (yahoo/gmail) and facebook WEBSITES are working fine and fast when using/accessing thru a browser (chrome/samsung browser) - no problem with this.
-> emails (yahoo/gmail) and facebook APP is soooooo sloooww (thru the App). Slow I mean comparing it to using their browser/websites... news feeds/emails refreshing so quickly but not when using the APP installed in Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Slow like - It will take around 5-10minutes just to get your emails and news feed refreshed.
THIS HAPPENS ONLY WHEN CONNECTED THRU A WIFI which has a speed of 10-20mb. It is not happening when connected to the network data/plan.
My wife has the same Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (coming from different provider at&t) - same setup (emails, fb app), same wifi connection, but she's not experiencing anything like it.
Not sure why, I dont want to believe that while connected to a WIFI, Verizon is restricting anything and ******* me off to make me switch to my data plan connection everytime - which is Unfair!
Was there a known issue similar about this case?
thanks,

Blackberry 8520 keeps repeatedly downloading the same email messages and facebook notifications

My Blackberry 8520 has all of a sudden started downloading the same email addresses and facebook notifications, that I have already read, I tried deleting them totally and also deleted from my computer inbox, but it just downloaded the next lot in my inbox repeatedly instead. Sometimes it says I have 50 unread messages, which is the same 7 or 8 messages over and over again, showing as unread.
I have rebooted device several times and don't know what else to do now, can anyone help please?
Thanks very much

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Have you changed the settings for messages on your account on the providers website?
(Gmail, Yahoo, etc.)
If that's not it try the following:
Go to options advanced options, Host Routing Tables, click to enter. DO NOT click on any listing.
Press menu key, and select register now.
You will get a verification message. Then go to email settings and send service books.
I would suggest logging into the carriers BIS site via PC if you can.
You will get an email per account. Repeat the battery pull and see if the problem is
resolved.
Let us know how it goes!
Thanks,

No Twitter and Facebook Notifications

There's still no sign of Twitter and Facebook push notifications appearing following the introduction of Notifications in ios5.
All the settings in Notifications for these apps are set correctly and I have the latest versions of the apps. I'm getting other
notifications - Mail, Calendar etc - but no Facebook or Twitter.
One other question on this. Assuming this does get to work, exactly what notifications should be received? For example, is it just Direct Messages
on Twitter rather than posts by people you follow? Same question with Facebook.

Here is my experience with this issue.
First of all, I have an iPhone 4S (my first iPhone), and when I first got my iPhone in the mail and installed Facebook (fb) I was getting my fb notifications without any issues. Then after installing others apps and receiving updates, all the sudden I stopped receiving my fb notifications via fb app. The only way that I would get fb notifications was by e-mail, but I soon realized this was going to be so annoying. Thereafter, I decided to search online and see if there other customers with iPhones were having the same issues I had encountered. Surprisingly enough, I found this thread. After reading all of your comments herein, the first thing I did was to delete my fb app from my iPhone. Secondly, I deleted my fb app from my previous smartphone (bb), and thereafter, I downloaded fb onto my Mac through iTunes, and from there to my iPhone. I can now say, that thus far this has resolved my issue, and I'm now getting fb notifications on my iPone via the fb app.

Facebook and Facebook Messenger message push notifications not working?

I have a 4th generation iPod touch running iOS 6.1.5 and an iPhone 5 running iOS 7.0.4. On my iPod touch, Facebook and Facebook Messenger give me notifications for everything. On my iPhone, the Facebook app gives me every notification except for messages. Facebook Messenger, on the other hand, doesn't give me any kind of notification aside from the in-app notifications. I've been missing important messages on my iPhone because of this. I've set all notifications settings on my iPhone to "on." I turned on all the notifications settings in the notification center, the apps themselves, and even the Facebook integrated settings under Settings > Facebook. I also tried everything from uninstalling and reinstalling, to hard booting, to logging in and out of the applications, and I even turned off Facebook platform on the computer. I was wondering if this has something to do with being online on both my iPod touch and my iPhone, but my mom has an iPad 3 (I think?) and an iPhone 5s and she never has notification problems. I've already tried Googling my problem up, but none of the solutions worked. I really hope you guys can help me. Thanks a ton in advance!

I've already tried reinstalling and restarting both devices. I now get comment notifications on my ipad but no chat and still nothing on my phone. I don't understand what happened. It was working 2 hours ago.

Click to Tweet and Facebook Posts from Notification Center Stopped Working????!

Ok right now I am REALLY confused. About a week ago, I went to post something on twitter. Naturally, instead of having to go to twitter.com and signing in, I used the Notification center "Click to Tweet" button to make my post. It worked just as you would expect. The little screen popped up, I typed my post and tweeted it.
Just a few days ago, both the Tweet and Facebook Post buttons stopped working. I can click on them all I want, but the little index card-like screen never shows up. I don't know what the issue is, since I had both buttons working a few days ago. To try solving the issue I:
1. Went into the settings for notifications and "Hid" the buttons from Notification center (that didn't work)
2. Removed both my accounts from my laptop and re-added them (that didn't work)
3. Checked to see that the password was correctly typed in... it was (and that still didn't work)
The only thing I have left to do is try shutting down my laptop and restarting it. However I recently had some iPhoto software updates that required the laptop to be restarted. Even though this was after the problem started, it still didn't fix it.
One more thing to note is that in Safari where the "Share" button is... that still works fine. I shared a website I was on to Facebook and it posted successfully. The only problem is the functions in Notification Center.
If anybody has a solution to this issue where the Tweet and Facebook Post buttons stop functioning for Notification center, I would really appreciate it. Thanks
- Dan (ThunderBow98)
NOTE- One other thing. Notifications from Facebook and Twitter still work, however. For instance, I just got a friend request approved on Facebook and that appeared as it should with the little banner notification as well as it appearing in my list of notifications. Somebody re-tweated my tweet and that appeared there too. The only thing that isn't working is the posting features.

Same thing with me but the Safari thing also doesn't work. I recently changed my twitter username so I thought that might be the problem, but no it isn't. Unfortunately, I can only complain with you, not help you, I apologize, Dan!

How do i get my imac to remember my login details on my email and Facebook without remembering my passwords?? iAt the moment i have to type each time i visit my sites??

How do i get my imac to remember my login details on my email and Facebook without remembering my passwords?? iAt the moment i have to type each time i visit my sites??

Open Applications and the the Utility folder and then Keychain Access app. In there you will find all the usernames and password that have been saved. For some reason it is not saving those passwords and or not using the ones that have been saved.
This is fairly common with Mac OS X as it happens for no apparent reason just all of a sudden.

Is it possible to have bookmarks that will auto-login to two different gmail and facebook accounts?

Right now I have separate user accounts for my wife and I, merely for the reason of keeping our bookmarks separate. Its forced us to come up with the usual workarounds for sharing iTunes, iPhoto, etc, and multi-users for us is only useful for keeping separate safari bookmarks.
Certainly, I could just have my wife use firefox instead, but then bookmarks don't sync with the iPhone and iPad. I wish that safari supported profiles like firefox, but it doesn't.
As another option, we can separate stuff into different folders and what not, but what I can't figure out is how to make it so that we could each have bookmarks for gmail and facebook that would log us in automatically. Its kinda stupid, i know, but being able to just click facebook and have it go straight to our account is really nice, and having to manually login each time is a nuisance.
anyone know of an easy fix for this?

Thanks, tst. I wasn't holding my breath on this one.
Hmm... I hadn't thought of XControls! I'd rather not go that route, though, in the interest of keeping the error handler code as light as possible. (In the daemon itself I don't mind more complexity) If I did that, the cure might be more expensive than the problem it solves.
tst wrote:
Load and unload it explicitly at the start and end of the app. Great if you have a structured app, but not so much if you want something more free form.
Unload it as soon as it's done doing its work (or after a timeout from the last action it took).
Sadly, this app is rather "free form". It has a lot of multi-threaded, asynchronous operations since I'm performing parallel TCP communication to several hosts. Each dynamically called VI calls the error handler.
Option 2 might be a decent idea, though. If I went with that, I'd just have to tweak the architecture accordingly. It may well be the most feasible solution.
Thanks for the quick reply!

Can I run Tiger and Leopard on the same computer

Hi folks.
I've been meaning to install Leopard for ages but have never got round to it (I bought the retail box when it first came out). I have upgraded my RAM to 2GB and my hard drive to 320GB with no problems.
My upgraded hard drive has been partitioned into 2 equal parts of 160GB. These appear on desktop as Mackintosh HD1 and HD2. HD1 is the disk with all my files, music, OS etc and HD2 is empty
I have 2 bootable clones of my present system - one is on a 160GB external and the other is the original 80GB HD that I replaced.
My question is this - can I install Leopard on to my 160GB external HD, then clone it on to the empty HD2. If I do this would I be able to run both Tiger and Leopard on the same Macbook?
Is there any problems with this plan? Would I be able to transfer between the 2 OS and how do I install Leopard on the external drive. Is it just a case of inserting the Leopard DVD and choose the external drive as the target?
As usual thanks in advance

# Original Tiger in the internal HD, New Leopard in the external HD.
# New Leopard in the internal, Legacy cloned Tiger in the external.
# Split internal, one partition with Tiger, another with Leopard.
Leopard is backwardly compatible with older Macs, just make sure yours fulfills the minimum system requirements, both use the same filesystem format, so each can see the other. You can't run both at the same time, unless you purchase the server version of Leopard and run it virtualized. 99.9% of Firewire external HD's are bootable, some USB's are bootable but have to test first. You can choose which system to boot from by pressing the Option key at boot time, before the chime. Just make sure the external HDD is plugged in and turned on if that's where you want to boot from.
When I migrated my PBG4 from Panther to Tiger, got an external FW HDD, cloned Panther onto it, upgraded using Archive and Install, cleaned up, customized and tested it. When I was satisfied all was ok, cloned the original Panther onto another partition of the external HDD, wiped and tested for failure the internal HDD, then cloned the known good and tested Tiger into it. Only thing that died along the way was my old and ancient Photoshop v2.x, that refused to run on Tiger.

I installed Tiger and now my printer/scanner won't work

Hi. I installed Tiger and now my multi function printer/scanner/fax is not recognized by my computer. I have the Brother MFC 420 CN. I downloaded some drivers and such which I thought would resolve the issue, but still it does not work. What can I do? Thank you.

According to this page:
http://www.brother.com/E-ftp/macosxstate.htm
The MFC-420 CN is not listed. Sounds like you have a printer whose driver never was updated. Contact Brother technical support and ask them to fix that issue.

i am not getting notification on most of my apps, e.g twitter and facebook...except i go to the app and refreshed manually. its an iphone 4 and running on ios5...i have gone through everything and its still the same..help please........
I seem to be having the same problem on my brand new iPhone 4S. Everything was working fine on the phone until I updated to iOS 5.1.1, but now I no longer receive push notifications for the native Mail app, Instagram, or the Facebook app. I still seem to be receiving SMS texts and iMessages via push, but the aforementioned apps need to be opened before I can receive missed notifications (having them open in the background seems to make no difference).
Thanks for any help that you may provide!

did you try notifications under settings? You can customize it as per your requirement, for each application.
