Remove the associated entries from your keychain.
Clear cookies.
Visit the site.
Type in your username and password.
When the dialog asks you if you want to store the info, say never.

If that doesn't do it, then also clear the auto fill items (Safari's prefs).

What is adequate DSL speed/cost for 450MHz G4

2010-05-02 Thread Jonas Lopez
What is adequate DSL speed/cost for 450MHz G4

A barrage of unnecessary speed and cost options for DSL that I am not smart 
enough to address, so I seek your application. Practically, I see only the 
display of content that includes a webcam or movie as being close to the 
dreaded bandwidth hog demand that we have to be concerned about. I do not see 
the loading of a page as being a meaningful consideration and anyway its the 
media that will take the lead and bring the page load time with it.

I am using a G4 running 10.4 or 10.5 at 450 MHz and as I view a movie, looking 
carefully at the download bar as it meets the just in time JIT needs of the 
display, the JIT bar is just being chased by the display bar, but does manage 
to just barely stay ahead, so I question the needed expense of faster and 
faster DSL. I was using 768kbps at $15./mo and the JIT bar was never ahead of 
the display bar, so I have just now moved to 1500kbps at $20./mo. If I had a 
faster G4 or G5 - would a 2GHz use any more - I need a faster DSL to meet the 
JIT criteria? Is any faster just costing more with no real benefit? Am I 
getting poorer movies and failed to notice it?

No, a faster computer will not require a faster internet connection for 
what you are doing. A 1.5mbps (1500kbps) DSL line is fine for any 
internet video besides HD, which would never play on your G4 anyway.'

Uncompressed video is huge.  A DVD is going to hold minutes of video. 
You could try importing it into iMovie then burn the DVD from those files.

True, but if it's already on a normal (video) DVD, it'll already be  
compressed, right? I don't think we're talking raw camera footage  
here. So, aren't DVD's MPEG-2? So I'd go for finding some way to rip  
from the source DVD it as MPEG-2, then it should be able to be burned  
straight back to another DVD without needing any re-encoding or  
compression.

Of course, this is all theory and I could be very, very wrong

 And in thinking some more about it I realized that I'd neglected to

Once those are enabled you have a Virtual Box menu item Auto-Resize

When you do get riun the Guest Additions script in Windows, you will

Yes, thanks for this too, I will get around to this, it is probably

Dear Grandchild,

It is very easy for you to make a video using your webcam. 

Just ask grandpa to help you find a video program that will let you record. 

He will Google it and all you have to do is make a face and smile for all to 
see. 

Sometimes the driver program that you have for your camera has a feature to 
record, check it out.

Have fun.

G'day John

If you can, install Photo Booth from Apple. It should allow you to select your 
camera, and takes movies as well as stills. Lots of fun for kids.

Nor sure what OS is required tho.

John, in the later versions of Photo booth there is a line of three icons on 
the bottom left. The rightmost one takes movies.

I've just realized, you might be in playback mode where the left icons show 
mail and iphoto. If so, click on the centre camera icon so it goes red, then 
the above icons should appear. the rightmost looks like a film strip.

As long as the mail server is telling your mail client that there's 
an authorization failure, the mail client is going to dump that 
password - every time.  The only fix is to wait until they fix the 
mail server, or switch to a different provider.

John, if you do change your password, don't forget to change it on your modem 
as well as your mail app. A change of password can take from immediate to quite 
some minutes depending on your isp.

In your OP you mention that you want to do this from a DVD rip. 
Ok, that's a MPEG-2 arranged in a Video_TS folder.  You can use a

Re: Mail password

2010-05-02 Thread ah...clem
your mail server is asking for a password every two minutes because
you've set the preferences in your mail client (Apple Mail) to
automatically check the server for mail every two minutes.  just
change your preferences in Apple Mail to never check automatically,
then it will only ask for your password when you manually check the
server for mail.  and if AOL isn't a giant crapola clusterF***
(contrary to educated opinion), then you should be able to tell the
AOL server to remember your password.
