When did Bluetooth become a standard option on Powerbook G4s?

I am trying to determine if I have a problem or if I'm just being stupid. I have the second to last revision of the Powerbook G4, purchased 11 months ago. When I purchased it I believed a Bluetooth module was included as a standard option. I remember turning it off since at the time I didn't have a phone that could use it. Today, I went to turn it back on and it has disappeared. I know that some people are reporting similar issues, but I want to confirm that I in fact have a BT module in my laptop before I start trying to have the problem fixed. Does anyone know when BT became a standard option?

Bluetooth is included with all of the aluminum PowerBooks except for the first 12-inch and 17-inch models.

When did Bridge become such a piece of crap?

why does bridge seem to crash every single time i use it? i know other people have experienced the same issues because I read about them in the forums. What happened?
I just tried a simple task - sort by dimension. Bridge crashed EIGHT times before I finally gave up and sort with finder. IS that what I have to do now when I want menial tasks that bridge used to be GREAT at?
Very confused and would love to know if someone has some sort of solution that fixes bridge and does not involve any destruction of eqt.
Using CS6 on a macbook pro
thanks

It is rare to get an Adobe employee on this site. We are just users like you.
The error for requesting empty the cache is not all that uncommon on a mac. The are numerous posts on this. Here is an excerpt from one Omke posted some time ago.
If your cache has got real corrupted then the quickest and best way to solve this is manual dump the cache and start again, maybe also with fresh settings.
Here is what I would do.
Quit Bridge,
Find the user library (the library in your user account, not on root level)
User(your name)/ library/ caches/ Adobe/ Bridge CS6. Inhere are a plug in and a folder called cache. Grab both items and drag them outside the user library, preferably in the trash
In same user library go to the folder preferences and inhere find and delete the Bridge plist file (com.adobe.bridge5.plist).
All removed files will refresh itself with new and empty ones after you have restarted Bridge.
Again hold down option key to restart Bridge and choose reset preferences.
Now you have a fresh almost out of the box Bridge with factory default settings and empty cache. You need to set your custom wishes in prefs again and also custom UI colors. Your custom work spaces are also still there but might to be reset.
Now you need to recache the lot to rebuild the thumbs and previews, you can do so overnight and if you want all your images cached just pick the main folder and in menu view use 'show items from subfolders' and let it run for a while.
Search works well, but the files have to be indexed for the search to work. You also have to be on the same drive, and the search starts where you indicate and moves down from there.

When did Adobe become such a sleazy company?

I made the mistake of trying a free trial month of Adobe Pro XI. Whenever I would try to open any kind of PDF document with my Adobe X reader, an ad kept coming up saying that my free trial had ended and would I like to buy a year's subscription for 19.99 per month? I could not open any documents, this malwarish ad would crop up. Finally, I caved in and bought a trial subscription and then, when I figured out I didn't need Pro XI to open my documents, it was like hell trying to cancel the subscription. Very poor customer service and sleazy sales tactics Adobe!

You are getting the warning message since the Acrobat pro XI is still installed on your computer and it is still the default application to open PDF files. You can simply try to uninstall Acrobat pro XI from your computer or set Adobe reader as default application to open PDF files.

Some one asked the question "When did Apple become Microsoft or Adobe?

I think when Microsoft and Adobe were young they were very aware of what customers needed. As they matured as companies their goals and philosophies changed the more money they made. Money became the goal and the philosophy is how to maximize the money. Adobe, Microsoft, and now Apple are all at the same developmental stage. The kinds of behaviors you have seen from the other large companies can be expected from Apple. I have been with Apple since the early 80's and own 5 machines including A 12 core Mac Pro and a MacBook Pro so I am Apple to the core.
My question: Has Apple turned the corner on a customer focus? Is Final Cut X the first of many decisions Apple will make that negatively effect their customers? This is the path Adobe and Microsoft took when they thought they were too large to be affected by negative consumer input.
Apple bigger things to come:

Thing is, this isn't the first. It's being going on for ages.
But remember, when Apple first started, they were all about making computers "for the people". Mac Plus for example... and all those old commercials from the Performa era slating the "business world" of PCs.
They have always followed the populist approach, developing products for the every day person... just now on a much bigger scale with the ipod and iphone generation.
The whole things about Apple being top dog for the media industries started ages ago too with the Design and Print industry, but I reckon with Final Cut and Shake, the video industry was one of their biggest successors in that area - but it came later, and now it is going earlier I think.
When they got rid of Shake, that said it all really... it was only a matter of time.
It seems like they are turning their back on the pro video industry - and there is probably a very valid financial reason for this... it's one of those things they do.
But ****, is it ******* **** that they are!! ;-)
I haven't written this post very well, apologies. To much time on here has and a bottle of wine has made my brain go numb (and yes, I have been editing this week on FCP7 at the same time :-D )

When did FCP become 'inclusive out'?

Am I crazy or in some recent iteration, has FCP changed to become 'inclusive out'? i.e. you get the marked frame, instead of dropping out before the marked frame?

Mark,
My impression from reading other posts of yours is that you've been in the business long enough to have experienced linear editing. On most systems, linear editing would make cuts between F1 (Field 1) and F2 (Field 2) in a frame (between the first field and the second field). So, if you made a one frame edit, you were going from the end of F1 between, say, 01:00:00:00 and 01:00:00:01 and the end of F1 between 01:00:00:01 and 01:00:00:02.
That also allowed the system to do a zero frame edit, which was useful for doing dissolves while maintaining video sync through the edit.
In non-linear editing, however, you are making the cuts at the end of F2 of one frame and the beginning of F1 of the next frame. So, a one frame edit includes an entire frame with both fields.
Note that Field Dominance and Field Order are two different things. Field Order in the order in which the two fields are recorded / displayed. So, if the order of the fields displayed is the opposite of the order those fields were recorded, then the playback, as it proceeds from frame to frame, will be going back in time for a field, then jumping forward two fields, then going back in time one field, etc. That results in stuttered playback, which is most noticeable during motion on screen.

When did AppleCare become AppleCare+ ?

I bought an iPhone 4 in early October, just before the new iPhone 4S came out. I bought it from AT&T, and got a good deal on it. I put off buying AppleCare until later, knowing that under the old rules I had any time during the first year. I now find that AppleCare was dropped on October 25 and it's now "AppleCare+" and has to be purchased within the first 30 days of your iPhone purchase.
Was this publicized? Was anyone else aware of this?

when they launched 4s, is when it changed.

Firefox crashed while automatically downloadingthe latest version, and when I reopened it, it did not give me the option of restoring my lost tabs. Is there any way to recover them now?

I don't know what more details to offer. The browser crashed, all my open tabs were lost, and when I restarted Firefox, it did not give me the option of restoring the tabs. I really want them back. Is there any way to roll back and recover them?

That gripes me to no end, as well. You might think Mozilla could think this one through, at least to the point of realizing there should be a manual means to recover open tabs NOT restored automatically after a routine FireFox crash.
And if Mozilla cannot stabilize FireFox, it will keep losing users back to IE.
The epidemic of crashes seemed to begin when FireFox "improved" itself with the idea of running 3rd party plugins in a "container", which is still far from reliable. I must run SysInternals Process Explorer at least once per Windows session to keep FireFox from destroying itself.
Aside from FireFox being so unstable, Mozilla should show some concern for users and make the manual restore option very plain from the UI-- such as "RESTORE OPEN TABS LOST SINCE THE LAST (*&&!!! FIREFOX CRASH"
Presumably-- and that may presume too much-- Mozilla leaves the open tabs "log" in place during each update. If that record of open tabs remains untouched from update to update, then why does FireFox screw up, update after update, and routinely fail to recover all tabs?
You might think someone at Mozilla would realize something is wrong. I have let Mozilla "phone home" after each crash, and yet the problem continues.

I purhased a broadband package with BT which included BT sport and a £40 gift voucher for Sainsbury's. I was advised my expected install date was 13th August 2013. on Sunday 11th August 2013 I received an email to advise me that a phone line engineer will be with me on the 12th between 1-6pm, i then received a seperate text message to advise a phone line engineer will be with me 13th August between 8am-1pm.
As this was conflicting information i thought it would be best to call the helpdesk, the lady i spoke to told me this must have been an error and the correct appointment is for the 13th August.
WELL GUESS WHAT??
A phone line engineer turned up at my property at around 11am on the 12th. He called me and spoke to me about what needed to be done and luckily as a phone line was already installed he was able to do the work from the exchange. As a courtesy he asked could i call and cancel the engineer that was due to show at the property the following day, I obliged and called BT to cancel the phone line engineer (WHAT A MISTAKE THAT WAS!!).
The call lasted for over an hour and the centre agent i spoke to did not understand a word i said to him and i didnt understand him either!! (When did British Telecoms become Bangladeshi Telecoms), Because of this rather than the engineer being cancelled my actual order has subsequently been cancelled instead.
After seeing this i was extremely irate as you could imagine! I decided to call again to double check this and was advised this was incorrect and it hadnt been cancelled.
Eveytime I try to call to speak to someone about this I clearly get someone on the other end of the line who is reaing form a script and hasnt got the best grasp of English, to this i ask "do BT have any call centres in Britain except sales?"
To the morning of the 13th August and I receive a phone call (again not from England) to ask about the service and if it was working?
ARE YOU BEING SERIOUS??? DO BRITISH TELECOMS EVEN KNOW WHATS GOING ON AT THAT COMPANY THEY ARE RUNNING?
Anyway.... i answered this ridiculous question with a no!
As the conversation went on i was told that as the order has been cancelled it will take another 5 working days for the order to be re-processed!!
YOU HAVE GOT TO BE JOKING ME!!
After the 5th time of asking to speak to a manger i was eventually put through to one. i asked for an email address of someone i can make a complaint to, he advise that they are not able to give these out???
MASSIVELY INCORRECT! As i work for work for the Compliance Department for a very large Debt Collection Agency
I am very aware of how complaints procedures should be dealt with and what information should be accessible to customers, an email address is absoultely one of those.
BT are very clever with their complaints procedure, we are all advised everything is accessible from the online webpage, when selecting complaints you are given the option to write or call. Again incorrect, the forms of making a complaint should be telephone, fax, email & letter.
So i have made a compaint using these and i will also be following this up with the Ombudsman.
What really bothered me was that (as a test) i called the sales team a number of times to pretend i was interested in a package, average wait time no more than 30 seconds.
What this says to me is BT are happy to take the money of new customers as they know they are under contract so payments will be made, any existing BT customer just gets palmed away by a call centre that is based over 8000 miles away.
As i made all of these calls whilst at work a number of collegues were eager to assist, one finding me the email address for the CEO, Ian Livingston who will be receiving an email, as well as the twitter page which can also expect a post from me.
BT WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm also having problems with BT and empathise with you. I will lose all my emails from 16th September as cannot sort everything I do on-line within a month.
I do hope you can get some resolution. The fact they can still use the word "British" in their title needs to be reviewed as it suggests "all things good and quality". The 49 minute call I had tonight has left me feeling so ill and upset that I can't believe it was BT. Good Luck.

How do I change the script for a voice iChat Alerts for when a friend becomes unavailable?

How do I change the script for a voice iChat Alert for when a friend becomes unavailable?
Before I upgraded my system from Mac OS 10.4.11 to Mac OS 10.6.8 - I a had personalized the script for a voice iChat Alert when my husband logged off from work. I had the ichat voice warn me "OH, Crap! he's coming home now! Hurry clean house!" This personalized voice alert did not survive the upgrade. Now, I need step by step instructions to walk me through the process. Please help! I mis my machine shouting funny profane alerts.

Hi,
In iChat 3 (OS 10.4.x) there was Line at the Bottom of iChat > Preferences > Alerts that you could enter text to and it would speak that Text.
(you could set something against Individual Buddies as well).
This Setting is not there in iChat 4 or 5 (I presume iChat 6 as well).
Now it is possible to write AppleScripts that can Speak.
It is alos possible in iChat 4 upwards to link an AppleScript to an Action/Alert
At this point my lack of AppleScript knowledge lets me down on what to tell you to do next.
An Alternative would be to Record a sound with said alert.
Place this sound in your Home Folder/Library/Sounds
Then in the Alert opton for youe husband select the Log off option and link that Sound

Decktop 6.2, HotSync not see Bluetooth as Connections option, Vista 64-bit

I got a new Dell Studio XPS with Vista Home Premium 64-bit and discovered that I could not perform a USB sync with my Treo 755p (Verizon). Since bluetooth sync was recommended, I purchased an IOGear Bluetooth 2.0 USB Micro Adapter (GBU421) and allowed Windows to discover the device. When prompted by Windows to insert the disk to install the driver, I went to the IOGear website and downloaded the most recent software (WIDCOMM bluetooth software version 5.5.0.4400 released 03/11/09 for Windows XP & Vista, 32 & 64-bit). Prior to installing this software, I had done a "clean" uninstall of all Palm files as directed in these forums and did a restart of the computer. I installed the bluetooth software & configured it to be "discoverable" and did another restart. Finally, I downloaded Palm Desktop 6.2, installed it and restarted the computer again. However, HotSync Manager does not see Bluetooth as one of the Connection options. My Treo 755p does "see" the computer when configuring bluetooth. Is there any hope that I may be able to sync this computer with my 755p or am I forced to look for a different smartphone? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Post relates to: Treo 755p (Verizon)
This question was solved.
View Solution.

bonz1973: It worked! I am so relieved & happy after so many hours of frustration. I want to thank you so much for your reference to messages #353 & #354 on "Vista 64 Hotsync solution found!" I want to share some of my experience that may help someone else. My comments are in [ ] and take off of those from edwardek.
1. Installed Palm v4.2 [I found that I did not need to do this]
2. Installed Palm v6.2
3. Installed Palm Outlook 2007 [ didn't do this part either since I use Outlook 2003]
4. Installed Bluetooth apps
5. Inserted the ... dongle in the USB port #6
[edwardek claims that he needed to use USB port #6 but my computer does not have a USB port #6. Instead it divides the many USB ports into Hubs. What' more important is that some software sets up the Bluetooth to transmit on a COM port. Mine was COM3. To see how your adapter software installed your Bluetooth devise, check the Device Manager in the Control Panel. It does list "Bluetooth Devices" where you can find the Device, right click, choose Properties, and see which USB port the Bluetooth adapter is in. However Device Manager also listed my Bluetooth under "Network adapters" and "Ports (COM & LPT)" which is important because I had to configure HotSync using Serical port COM3. I think it depends on the Bluetooth software you get.]
6. In your PC tray (at the bottom of your PC display), Right Click Hotsync Manager and select "Settings" [Yes, you need to configure your computer's HotSync method.]
7. Wait a long time (2 minutes) and the Hotsynch Manager window will be displayed. In that window click "Connection" and when the window opens click "USB" (a checkmark will then appear), then click COM (a checkmark will appear), under this you'll see a pick list drop-down menu showing all the ports. Select COM6.
[I didn't have to wait at all for HotSync to display. Yes, check both USB and Serial connections and at this point a dialog box showed the Serial connection was COM3, matching what was in Device Manager. I suspect that some software actually creates a Bluetooth option that shows up in the Connections list like the instructions from PALM specify. My software didn't set up the Bluetooth device is this way and so I was totally frustrated by not finding Bluetooth on the Connections list.]
8. Next set up your Bluetooth application and make sure it is paired with your Treo (I'm assuming everyone knows how to do this but in essence you make sure the Bluetooth application sees your Treo (your name) and that your Treo sees your PC (the PC name). [Before this step you have to configure your Treo so Bluetooth is ON and VISIBLE and you can see your computer as a Device. I had a shortcut to my Bluetooth software in the PC Tray beside the HotSync icon. Once I had the Connections set for USB and Serial in step 7 and the Treo set up to be Visible, the computer saw my Treo using the name I had given the Treo.]
9. From your Treo start the HotSynch, then on your Bluetooth application (Bluesoleil) right click on the Treo device and select connect. You should then see that the 2 devices are connected and the exchange begins. [Yes, start the HotSynch from your Treo.]
It worked for me and hope this helps you sync your Treo and your Vista 64-bit. Thanks for everyone's input and help.

When is Bluetooth not Bluetooth - Does Apple, Inc. know?

Hello,
Here is a description of what Bluetooth does, according to Apple, Inc.
*What Can You Do With Bluetooth?*
+• Last Modified on: March 02, 2004+
+• Article: 51768+
+This article explains what you can do with Bluetooth.+
+With Bluetooth you can do the following:+

I used a Nokia with Bluetooth for a number of years and it worked as described above by Apple, Inc. More recently, I switched to an Ericsson K700 and the Bluetooth also worked as described above.
Here is my personal problem.
I use a TomTom GPS that offer traffic information via periodic downloading of information from the Internet via (you guest it) a Bluetooth enabled mobile telephone. My Nokia and Ericsson handled it beautifully.
To my HUGE and CONTINUING dissapointment, I discovered after having purchased my iPhone (described as supporting Bluetooth) that it does not support important components of the BLUETOOTH STANDARD. A Standard that is not standard is not a Standard.
Can support at Apple, Inc. advise me if there is a solution and if not if there is a solution coming?
Thank you

Bluetooth has many, many profiles that can be optionally implemented by device manufacturers. Each device only implements the profiles relevant to what the device needs to provide and what the manufacturer wants to provide.
Apple (and AT&T) decided that they did not want to offer network tethering on the iPhone. So Apple did not implement that profile on the iPhone.
Bluetooth is a standard, and so are the many Bluetooth profiles. In order for two devices to connect and use each other over Bluetooth, each must implement the profiles that the other expects.
If you want to request the tethering profile on the iPhone, you should post a feature request to Apple. This is a user-to-user support forum.

I don't understand the question exactly, could you restate it. Sorry mate, I might just be braindead.
But, as far as the issue, it is by design. the column is a lookup columns which essentially ties to the external data. if that data is removed, the column on your simple list becomes invalid and any edits of the simple list item will require
it to be changed.
are you wanting to make the ECT read only? that's simple enough. you can pop open SPD and edit the ECT, then remove the C/E/D operations (create/update/delete). That will not, however make it read-only in any other systems that access that
external data, as I assume its not just SP or else it wouldn't be external
