Unable to ground magsafe with the short UK plug

My magsafe can't properly ground/earth itself when using the direct UK plug (Figure 1), however able when using the extended UK plug cable (i.e. no electric shock) (Figure 2).
I already tried using another magsafe; same outcome.
Can anyone explain to me what's going on here? Thanks

Ah, I recall some other UK posters mentioning that the use of an extension cord on your power outlets removes the shock/grounding indicated issue you are mentioning that the short plug does not.
Oddly there was just such a mention from a UK poster on another board just a couple hours ago.
here it is:

Ive had some electrical theory, but best I can recall (if correct) the longer extension grounds or dissipates as ground in some manner.

Obviously, syncing an iOS device with iTunes over USB is still supported in Mavericks. Calendar and contact syncing with iTunes is no longer supported. That has nothing to do with your problem.

hey guys, I'm having trouble matching the colour of the image back ground (white) with the pre-set colour selection. is there a tool that can help me? thanks

Your description of the problem is not quite clear so I made certain assumptions. I hope I am rigtht. I believe you have a color patch such as this:
that you would like to place in an image area that has modeling in its white background. You do not want to lay in a flat color but rather to add a color and not lose the modeling or other background tone. The problem is, after making the selection, if you use Edit > Fill and set the Blending mode to Color, the white background remains white. The only colored background area may be an object's shadow or some similar area that is not pure white. (Image 2) It is an unsatisfactory result.
If that is an accurate description of the problem, consider this:
Image 1: The original image
Image 2: Edit > Fill with the Blending mode set to Color. White remains white
Image 3: Mode changed to Lab Color. Edit > Fill with the Blending Mode set to Color. Then return to RGB.
(I would not normally use this green as a replacement color but since it is a Tiffany clock, I chose a light version of Tiffany's trademark color.)

How do I open a raw image with the Photoshop raw plug in as opposed to the Bridge raw plug-in.

I read in a book on adobe raw that it is often useful to open an image at the same time with the adobe camera raw bridge plug in and the Photoshop camera raw plug in.
I can open a raw image in photoshop but I suspect I am not actually getting access to the camera raw plug in as none of the controls present in the bridge raw plug seem to be available from within Photoshop.
Of course I can access bridge and the bridge raw plug in by opening bridge from within Photoshop but this is not what I want to do. I would like to open the image using the photoshop raw plug in not the bridge plug in.
Clueless . . . and confused.

Thanks for the discussion. It is interesting. Let me clarify a bit regarding my issue.
I am using Mountain Lion OSX on a mac, of course, and CS6. I have been using Aperture, a piece of Apple Software similar to Light Room to organize my images, opening them from Aperture in Photoshop to edit them, as I am both familiar with Photoshop and like the way it does things better than Aperture. I recently started using CS6 and working with Adobe Camera raw 7, which I think is the version that comes with CS6. All the info I can get from the web site, including a very nice tutorial from Adobe on camera raw, simply tells me to open it from Bridge. When I do this, I get a nice set of sliders and other adjustments specifically associated with Adobe Camera Raw and the camera I am using.
I can open a file in Photoshop using the method SkillRooster suggests and, sure enough, it opens it with the camera raw plug-in (if I simply open the image by double clicking on it it opens in photoshop, no plug-in). If I then go to bridge and open it from there, I don't get a second instance of Camera raw, it simply points me at the instance opened through Photoshop.
However, when I open a raw image in Photoshop from Aperture (raw images open with no problem) I simply get the Photoshop interface, not the camera raw plug-in, the same as if I had double clicked on the image to open it from outside of Aperture. I am trying to figure out if there is some way to open an image from Aperture in Photoshop so that it opens in the camera raw plug-in. One possibility I could imagene is to open it in Photoshop and from there open it in the plug-in. The only thing I see regarding this in Photoshop is a menu item that lets me close the image and open Bridge, which doesn't help me with my Aperture issue. I could decide to switch to bridge, but with the thousands of images I now have in Aperture, this would be quite a bit of work. I may just have to work with both going forward.
The root of my original question comes from something I recently read in a book by Bruce Fraser on Camera Raw which is excellent, but it focues on CS 5.5 as he died before being able to update it. In that book he describes a trick he uses where he opens the raw image in a plug-in in Bridge and then opens it a second time using a plug-in in Photoshop. This give him a chance to compare adjustments between the two open images. As I mentioned above, when I try to do this by starting with Photoshop and then going to Bridge, it points me at the same instance. I can't open it in Bridge and then Photoshop since once it is open in Bridge, it won't let me into Photoshop without closing the image in Bridge. I was thinking there might be something in Fraser's method that would help me with my Aperture issue, but can't reproduce what he describes.
Perhaps this was possible in CS5.5 but no longer in CS6.
Another work around I can imagine is to do all my raw editing from Bridge and then save the file as a DNG file in Aperture. I suspect that after that, I am stuck with doing any more raw editing using the Aperture camera raw funcions, which are a bit lacking compared with Adobe Camera Raw.
Hope I am being clear here about my dilemma. Any help would be welcomed.

Playback with the external instrument plug-in

Hi. Sorry to bother you guys with this Q but I'm having some problems with the External Instrument Plug-in. I seem to have no problems recording in this way from an external synth but the information won't play back. Any info would be most appreciated.
Cheers

ok now i'm a bit confused when I plug in my synth via the external instrument plug-in the sounds of my synth come up in logic as would one of its internal synths. i.e. the info is recorded as midi and can therefore be quantized and the velocity altered etc. So my goal here is to be able to use my own synth patches but be able to quantize them in logic ( which of course you can't do if its recorded as an audio file ). Now I'm not a tech person so perhaps this isn't possible and I'm just totally of the mark here but I figure it should be because when i use the E.I. Plug-in my synths sounds come out and the data does get recorded on an audio instrument file, and from there I can quantize it. The only thing is when I go to play back that region I get zip. The info is there, I can see it but there's no sound.

When I install OS 10.6 will iMovie 6 still be compatible along with the 3rd party plug ins?

When I install OS 10.6 -Snow Leopard-will iMovie 6 still be compatible along with the 3rd party plug ins?
Also, Firefox says Apple no longer supports OS 10.5 as far as security goes. Now what do I do?
I like to use both Safari and firefox.

iMovie 6 works just fine, even in 10.8. The plug-ins may not work in 10.7 and 10.8 as most use PPC code.

Probably needs a new battery.

I've send from Lightroom 5 photos in Jpeg format to my desktop that arrive as Archive and I'm unable to do anything with the photos. I want to put them in a folder but can't. It seems problem is in them being in 'archive'. Any suggestions?

I've exported photos from Lightroom 5 from my laptop to my wife's desktop. The photos arrive as Archive and she's unable to do anything with them, such as catalog them in an IPhoto folder with other photos. Is there an adjustment I need to make when exporting from Lightroom 5 so we can avoid this problem? Thank you.

How to Fetch Cancelled Jobs info along with the Short Dump Text

Hi Gurus,
I need to develop a report to fetch the cancelled jobs information for the given period. I also need to display the "Error Analysis" part of the Short Dump if it exists.
I am able to fetch the Failed Jobs information and the Job log details using the FM "BP_JOBLOG_READ". But I need to show the "Error Analysis Text" on the report , if there is any Short Dump Exists for the Dump.
Please give me your ideas to fetch the Error Analysis part of the short dump for a given Batch Job Name.
Thanks in Advance.
Best Regards,
Sumalatha

The dump information is in table SNAP. You could identify which dump you want by the date & time of the failed job - let's hope you don't have more than one dump with the same time. If it is ambiguous you could also compare the program name of the failed step with the program name in the SNAP data.
The error analysis texts are in table SNAPT keyed according to which error occurred (which is data element code FC right at the start of the first record in the SNAP data). You will have to expand out the includes, and substitute the variable codes using values from the SNAP data. There is standard code to do this that you could copy - see program SAPMS380.
To find out the details of the SAP process you could run transaction ST22 via the debugger and use the same mechanism.
best wishes
Ed
PS Note these details apply to recent systems I think there may be differences if you go back to before ?2004, but I don't have such a system so can't check. You didn't say what release you have.

Can a webpage with a URL with an added extension be opened with the short URL??

I want to have my website's basic URL: http://www.mousenstein.com open in the browser with the full content; ie the manually added /mousecliks.swf movie using the basic URL only, rather than http://www.mousenstein.com/mousecliks.swf ? Is that possible? If so, how?
Thanks

Update PSA job failed with the short dump

The process chain has failed at the UPDATE PSA step showing the internal session termination dump...In the dump it is showing the messages as :
"MESSAGE_TYPE_X" " "
"CL_RSSM_PSAPROCESS============CP" or "CL_RSSM_PSAPROCESS============CM007"
"IF_RSPC_EXECUTE~EXECUTE"
Could anyone tell me what may be cause for this kind of issue?
Regards,
Indira

Hello Indira,
OK, thanks for that information
The errors you have on your system can also be caused
by having too many entries in table RSPCINSTANCE
Please take a look at SAP note 1410071 and apply the latest
version of this note (with the advanced correction therein)
to your system, which should resolve the problem
Thanks in advance

Hi. The two user tips both describe a sequence of steps that should get your library from the point where it threatens to wipe data from your device to where it is syncing normally, while recovering as much information as possible. It may still be necessary to wipe and reload the device but this should only take place once all the data that can be recovered has been recovered.
Doing step 1 of 8 and then complaining things aren't the way you want them to be yet strikes me as premature...
Since you appear to have all your media content, and we are discussing an iPod classic, not an iOS device, the main worries are already taken care of. What's left is ratings, playcounts, playlist membership and checked status. Since your device holds only part of your library at best you could only recover the missing data for the content that is on the device using third party tools.
Recreating the previous checked/unchecked status of every track in your library from where you are now may not be that easy. Syncing with selected playlists has many advantages, one of which would have been that you would have a named playlist that could have been retrieved by 3rd party software if you had used this method.
You haven't explained what caused your problem in the first place, but if you have a Previous iTunes Libraries folder holding old copies of your iTunes database (generated with each iTunes update) then it would be possible to restore the most recent of these and then update the library with any changes in your media folder.
BTW Apple doesn't offer free support for this kind of issue with iTunes.

Do I interact with the browser or Plug-in

I am interested in how Flash gets displayed in a web browser
and how much of the interaction and display is dependant on the web
browser.
If you interact with a flash application on a web browser are
you really interacting with the browser first which passes on the
message to the Flash plug-in. Or after an initial set up is all
interaction with the Flash application directly dealt by the
Plug-in where the browser has essentially no idea what is
happening?
For example when I click on a "Skip" button on a flash
animation shown on a web page, am I clicking on the browser or the
Flash plug-in that is installed on the browser?
I hope explained that clearly enough,
Thanks

I'm assuming fireflox with an L in the name is a typo?
If not, can you provide more detail about the plugin? Who is the publisher, where is it installed, what is it for, etc.?
By the way, if you see plugin-container.exe in the Task Manager, that is used to isolate Flash from firefox.exe so that crashes in Flash do not kill your entire browsing session. That's normal.
Regarding extensions, which ones did you disable that become re-enabled on their own? If you don't want an extension, you should be able to remove it. If it was installed by third party software, then usually you can remove it through the Windows Control Panel and/or options in the related software.

The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.
