WoW Cataclysm: Please Post Here!

This thread is dedicated to getting people ready for the new WoW. This way all these threads can be condensed down a bit. First off is system requirements:
Minimum specs:
Windows XP 32bit (SP3), Windows XP 64bit (SP2), Windows Vista 32bit (SP1), Windows Vista 64bit (SP1):
Intel Pentium 4 1.3 GHz or AMD Athlon XP 1500
1GB or more of RAM
NVIDIA® GeForce® FX or ATI Radeon™ 9500 video card or better
DirectX-compatible sound card or motherboard sound capability
25 GB free hard drive space
You must have an active broadband Internet connection to play
Recommended specs:
Windows XP 32bit (SP3), Windows XP 64bit (SP2), Windows Vista 32bit (SP1), Windows Vista 64bit (SP1) Windows 7:
Dual-core processor, such as the Intel Pentium D or AMD Athlon 64 X2
2 GB RAM (2 GB for Vista users)
3D graphics processor with Vertex and Pixel Shader capability with 256 MB NVIDIA® GeForce® 8600 or ATI Radeon™
2600 or better DirectX-compatible sound card or motherboard sound capability
Broadband Internet connection
Multi-button mouse with scroll wheel recommended
I seriously considered not puting in minimum specs because the game will run very poorly for you. I will do my best to translate to you what you want for the game to play smoothly (this is not the end of all lists, just some guidelines to follow):
2 GB of RAM, 4 GB preferrably
A graphics card that is from any of the following series: Nvidia: 8600 (512MB or higher) and up, 9600 and up, GT240 and up, GT340 and up, any G400 or G500 series card. ATI/AMD: ATI 3400 and up, ATI 4400 and up, ATI 5000 series, ATI 6000 series*
Dual Core CPU with 2Ghz or better speed
*A better power supply may be needed on some models of graphics cards, integrated graphics may be used but resolutions and graphics settings will have to be turned way down.

Please post here the solution to update 10.4.6

I also have had troubles with this update. It would not install so I shut down and tried to this morning. It continued to stay on the gray screen with the loading wheel. I left it there loading when I left the house because it didn't finish. I am thinking of running Disk Utility when I get back home.
The reason for this post is I have been looking on the forums to many posts about this and I am getting lost on the exact way about going about getting this installer to work and everything to run smooth. If you have gotten it to work correctly or know a way to run it correctly please post here what you did. It would be the greatest help and would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your help!
-Kyle

This really isn't going to be much help for you, Kyle, because all I did was Click Software Update and hit install. That's pretty much all I ever do. I do have a cloned backup so restoration is trivial perhaps explaining the casual approach but that said, never had to restore either.

If you receive the HTC Droid Incredible Froyo update, please post here.

It is August 18th and we all know the rumors said we would get Froyo today on our Incredibles. If you receive the HTC Droid Incredible Froyo update, please post here so those of us waiting will know that the update is starting to download. It should be downloading by batches of phones. Once we know it has started, at least we'll all know it's then just going to be a short time until we are in an update batch.

My wife had the update waiting when she checked her phone at 9am this morning, I'm still waiting.
She's got a 917 area code and I'm 646. Her phone's paid by a corporate account while mine is tied to a different larger corporate account, but it is my personal phone that I pay for.
I've got my phone about a month before her and have been a longer VZW customer, so no idea what the distribution order is.

The Successful Video To Ipod Forum, Please Post Here

Everyone Is having Problems and Are vert frustrated. So when someone has sucessfully transfered their videos onto the ipod. please post here & explain how you did it, what you used and details if possible. We all need to work together to get this right. Since apple Isnt going to help it's up to us.
I Am going to pick up my ipod video tomorrow, i already have my videos loaded into itunes and they work fine, i am going to see if they transfer to my ipod video then. I Will post if successful.
I Am also going to talk to a mac genius tomorrow at the apple store when i purchase my ipod video. We will overcome this i promise!!!

My ipod just came yesterday, it originally said delivery 10-21 but that changed to 10-18 and I missed fedex, so I had to go and pick it up. As a result I couldn't play with conversion so much. But here is what I found and what I plan to try. maybe we can try to keep a dialog going of what people are testing and what works. As the new ipods become more available more of the bigger players will come out with converters. Right now the best bet is to use encoders designed for the psp, which is hit or miss.
PSP movie creator seems to work for mpeg4, haven't gotten h.264 to work but didn't spend that much time.
320x240, will try 400x192 tonight. make sure you go from mpeg to mp4.
I could not get videorama to work, at least not with the defaualt options. I will try again today.
IPSP does not seem to want to work.
PSPvideo 9 did not seem to work, but I spent only a few minutes with it.
Heres what I plan to try today.
Videorama - again
nero rencode 2 for h.264
vegas video
Has any one tried the elecard converter.
I have a website were I will be posting my results.

HP LaserJet 1022 Printing Problems - Please Post Here

Sorry, I hate to create a new thread, but tracking so many different threads on this one issue is becoming problematic for me. So with that being said, if you are still having a problem with printing to a LaserJet 1022 after the full uninstall I detailed in the FAQ thread followed by installing version 2.2 of the HP driver package, then let me know here. And specifically I want to know is which device you have, how your device is connected, the print driver version, and what apps are giving you problems. In my own personal testing, here is what I have found:
USB direct connect - OK, I have yet to run into a problem here.
USB connected to an Airport Extreme N - OK, I have yet to run into a problem here.
USB connected to an Airport Express G - Paused problem. I got print job/page out and then the printer paused and would not resume. I don't have a functioning work around here yet, but I'm trying.
So if I were going to fill out my own form, it would look like this:
Printer: LaserJet 1022n
Connection: USB connected to an Airport Express G (Firmware version 6.3)
Driver Version: 1.1.0.182
Apps: All
Problem Description: Printer queue goes into a Paused mode and won't resume
And to get you started, I have left a blank template at the end of this post.
Also please make sure to include whether you have the 1022, 1022n, or 1022nw AND how it is connected to your Mac. If users of the 1020, what to chime in on this thread that is OK. Anyone else, please post in the FAQ thread or a different device specific thread. As the 1022 seems to be the most problematic at the moment, I'd like to track this down as quickly as possible.
Just trying to help.

Where is your source of the phone being a problem? Just curious, I hear the opposite.
When mine updated yesterday, mine ran a bit 'clunky'. I simply pulled the battery, replaced powered up and never a problem sense. And I was on it ALOT last night as many people wanted to see it compared to an iPhone another had sitting next to me.
Hardly scientific, but aside for the iPhone owner, all liked the Incredible better.

GSkill 1600Mhz Ram on NF980-G65 Please post stable settings here for 1600Mhz

G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL on NF980-G65 Mobo.
Please post here about what settings you are using to run this ram stable on NF980-G65 Mobo.
Exactly what are you setting in the bios? Voltage= ? Anything else?
Our knowledge of knowing what works & how, can be greater then what we get told by some Reps.
Please, let us help each other to help ourselves. We know better, we really use these Mobos.

Believe Mike's statement was "not going to gain anything significant" rather than "won't gain anything". In my experience, a stable 1333 is far better than a problematic 1600. With some tweaks, 1333 can rival basic 1600 performance anyway. Should as little of a gain as 1 or 2 FPS at 1600 speed be considered significant? IMHO, CPU & VGA have a bigger influence on performance than RAM. This isn't helping answer your thread's original topic question however, so I hope Vorg or others can come back with some specifics that worked for them. Many times, even with similar systems & components, the results can't be duplicated unfortunately.

No Audio on Main Menu - Please post if you are having this issue....

Howdy...
I am having trouble getting any audio on the main menu. I can drag and drop audio files (non-DRM) to all my menus, and it shows up in the inspector, but when I preview or burn a disc, the main menu has no audio. All of the sub-menus have the audio just fine, but not the main.
I'm currently using the 'Stretch' theme...
Again, all sub menus work just fine, but the same audio will not play on the main menu.
Does anyone have a solution?
If you are also having this problem, please post here...
Thanks...
Best,
Ben

I've stumbled onto the reason for this problem. It's because you unintentionally muted your audio for this menu. To resolve it do the following:
1. Open the menu where you are having audio problems
2. Click on the drop zone icon to open the drop zones
3. Move the music (the iTunes music notes) that you've placed here out of the menu box
4. By getting the music icon out of the way, you will reveal a tiny black sound/audio icon
5. If you strain your eyes and look real close you will see that there are no sound waves coming out of the sound icon
6. Click on the icon and tiny black sound waves will appear
7. You have now "unmuted" your menu
8. Drop your music selection back into the menu drop zone
9. You now have sound!

Post Here If You've Had a T530 Ship Since Aug. 1

Doesn't seem that anyone is getting T530s to ship since around Aug. 1.
If you have had an order for a T530 ship since Aug. 1, please post here with any of the relevant details that you care to provide. (Order date, milestones, date shipped, date received, etc).
Thanks!

Dimsdale is obviously looking for truth, which Lenovo is incapable of supplying. We are getting nothing but a bunch of lies and bs. Lenovo obviously has a severe breakdown in communication internally and externally.
So, ExJamJus, are you able to tell us, the customers, what is really going on with the T530? And why Lenovo continues to sell them giving a 6 day leadtime when we all know that's not going to happen?

Intel vs G4/G5 - please post your results

I'm currently running ARD 3.0 on my G5 as I was unable to get it to run reliably with my Intel MBP.
Has anyone had luck with ARD 3 on your Intel Mac?
If so, please post here.
I've stopped trying to make this work as I figured it just needs some updating on Apple's side, but I'd love to know if other Intel users are having better luck?
Thanks.

I sure haven't.
It works fine on my internal network, but I mainly use it to remote support Windows client's that I have. I have them all loaded up with TightVNC, which, for the most part, had been working fine, until I upgrade my PowerBook to my MBP. Since then, I cannot connect to any remote client, aside from my internal network. Add thing is, I have changed no settings, Apple Remote Desktop came over intact from Migration Asst., but it will not connect to them. Funny enough, my PowerMac still connects with no problems whatsoever.
I am puzzled as to what the issue could be. The only thing I can think is, something is not working between the MacBook Pro and TightVNC, but alas, no one ever seems to suggest on here a really solid Windows VNC for use with Apple Remote Desktop and furthermore, Apple does not seem too interested in creating one themselves, which is very frustrating.

"Please Read This Before Posting Here" font large enough?

To whom it may concern,
Perhaps if you can't change anything else maybe changing the size of that font might help.
Really, (and clearly) something needs to be changed about the way Discussions is organized. I see nothing but excuses about topics being mistakenly posted in the wrong forums.
I hope that something "is" being done to correct this issue in Discussion forums. Personally, I feel that far too many new users are posting in the wrong forums. The quantity of how many is way beyond what should be seen in my opinion. This has to show some proof that the way the Discussions is setup is just not working properly and corrections need to be made. And not just here in the Feedback About Discussions forum but across the board.
One can understand perhaps an erroneous topic being posted in, for example, 10.3 and earlier whereas it should be posted in the 10.4 Tiger forum where no huge banner states posting procedure but when one sees the amount of off topics in this forum it is just a joke now. Obviously, these users are not posting here intentionally knowing it is the wrong forum. For what ever reason they have wound up here and don't realize that it is incorrect. I believe it "is" the responsibility of the forums to make sure these posts are posted correctly and not by just moving them but to change the way the discussions are setup/operate so that it doesn't happen to begin with.
Please do something,

J.K. ROFLing,
What do you suggest littleshoulders?
I have made suggestions, whereas others have not but have also asked for changes here in regards to posting topic probems.
A suggestion I have made was to force the user whichever way they enter discussions to fill in a form that directs the user to the most appropriate forum. This doesn't need to be a long form but I'm sure you have seen this type of form on other sites that narrow a search down.
I'm certainly not an expert (I assume Apple has enough on staff to handle the logistics) and would only venture a guess as to what might be asked on the form to narrow the search.
Most importantly, I can't believe that the form would be any more labor intensive on the user than navigating through the Discussion pages to get to an appropriate forum. And quite frankly, even if it were it would certainly direct the user to an appropriate forum saving huge amounts of wasted time trying to get their support.
"Computer: iMac G3
OS version: OS X v10.3.9
What is you computer problem or support topic: Terminal problem"
I'm sure there would have to be other menu options (pop-ups and user filled info) for this type of search process but that is an abbreviated example for this excercise.
These directing forms are used all over the internet to direct the user to the appropriate product, support or otherwise.
I contend that the way that Discussions is presented currently that it needs this type of user interface to work properly.
In closure, I have to say that I don't believe in status quo and think that any change for the better is welcome and I bet all those novice users who struggle with posting topics correctly would agree. They obviously need more help than what is currently offered with posting.
regards,
littleshoulders

Please Post Macbook Pro Temperatures here.

All Macbook Pro owners, please post your macbook pro temperatures here. This would allow us owners to clearly identify what an "average" temperature is, and what would be considered over-excessive heating of our Macbook Pros.
Below are two useful applications (one is a widget) to find out the temperatures of your computers.
http://www.bresink.de/osx/TemperatureMonitorWE.html (a widget)
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19994 (a comprehensive application)
when posting your temperature, please do post some specs of your macbook pro.
This is greatly appreciated. thank you (:
for starters, my macbook pro is a 1.83 ghz intel duo core, 512 mb ram, 128mb graphics card. it supposedly comes from the batch produced on the day of 31st March, 2006. I think it is a revision D.
So far, doing normal tasks like web browsing, etc, my macbook pro has been at a temperature of 42 degrees celsius.

I have a MBP 1,83 and I did the "yes-command" with two Termial Windows, that means my two processors are running at 100%. The
Fans are running and holding a constant temperature of 75°C.
In "normal-work-mode" the temperature is rising up to 62°C, but this takes about an hour. At the moment I have a processor usage of about 6% and a temperature of 48°C.
When I am at about about 62°, I get the "mooing". I am very sure that this is caused by a fan on the left side, because I get the same noise, when I do the "yes-command" but then the fan is accelerating. When I get the mooing it is going up and after a little while down.

Please don't post here yet

We will be moving the old Tuxedo 7.1 Beta newsgroup over to here on
Monday, March 12. Please do not post anything here until then, as the
articles may be overwritten.

Hello ,
Can you please post your ADSL stats by following this direct link; http://192.168.1.254/ and go to A-Z (top right) and then ADSL Status and post everything including Line Attenuation, Noise Margin, Connection Speed, Errors etc...
Also we need a speedtest just to have a look and make sure everything's okay? Use this link http://bit.ly/uViAXN and post all the required info Throughput, IP Profile etc..). If that one doesn't work then try this work around link http://bit.ly/tIPNYA .
Run a line test to determine if or not it is an external problem: http://goo.gl/J25w8
Can you also confirm if you're connected at the master socket or an extension? And what your type your master socket is according to this picture
Lastly for now, call 17070 and Press Option 2 for the Quiet Line test and where possible use a corded phone as DECT handsets can pick up electrical interference?
Are you connected Wirelessly or through a cable?

Thanks guys for the replies. Yes, you are right, I was hoping specifically for the 865PE-NEO2-LS board, and see no responses. At this point, hopefully my 3.4 Northwood should be here today or tomorrow. On this board, I just could not get past 3.1 Ghz with my 2.8, and it seems as soon as I started creeping towards the FSB of 230, things really went wacky/unstable. No matter if I raised the voltages, loosened memory timings, etc. But having said that, CONGRATS to you guys for getting your 2.8s juiced up - I wish I had better luck!
Obviously, my next question would be is how well does the 3.4 Ghz Northwood O/C - isn't the ceiling about 4Ghz?
