Re: G5 PPC Tower - Startup light flashing problem

2010-08-13 Thread Frank Salleo

Hi
I remember my G5 doing that when it went off during a power failure.
Resetting the power management (cuda switch) fixed it. The instructions are
at
 http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1939
This is a last resort and resets your hardware back to default values. If it
doesn't work it is normally a hardware fault.

Cheers

 Discount all the cables and leave for about 5mins, then just plug it back in
 and try it again.
 Sometimes, if that doesn't fix you have to repeat, but also take the battery
 out.
 I've had that happen once before and the above fixed it.
 Other times, it was a few more problems to work through.
 But that's a start ;)

 Hi Philippe,
 
 If Daniel's first suggestion doesn't fix the problem, try checking the RAM.
 When the power light flashes three times, this normally means that none of the
 RAM banks passed memory testing.

Re: G5 PPC Tower - Startup light flashing problem

2010-08-13 Thread Philippe Chaperon

Dear Wamug'ers,

Million thanks to all of you for the many suggestions - Daniel, Roger,
James, Rhonda and Frank, I do appreciate it very much.

I still do not know what has gone wrong with my very faithful G5, but
due to lack of time at the moment I have left the machine with Daniel
to look at. I will however let you know what the problem is once
found.

Shay, the memory cards have been in the machine for many years, but
maybe needs to be reseated. This machine has been so reliable that I
was literally in shock last night, but slowly overcoming the condition
by talking myself into accepting that after some 9 years or possibly a
bit longer, this computer has given me much more than one should
expect.

Last night I did go on Apple's G5 forum and lo and behold someone had
posted exactly the same problem as mine. There was no reply when I
logged off around 23:30, and have not checked the site as yet.

Again, my heartfelt gratitude for the many suggestions and ideas.

Good night all  kind regards,

Philippe Chaperon

Re: TV DVD Recording

2010-08-13 Thread Pat

I recently asked about buying a used laptop in order to set up a system to 
record TV programs.  Many thanks to those who responded.  I have decided to go 
the 'new' route and buy a Mac mini and eye TV device.  

I can set up the Mac mini with a keyboard and monitor borrowed from another 
machine, but will they be needed for entering programming information on a 
day-to-day basis?  Will the Apple Remote control device do that job?

At the moment, I don't have any clue about what an Apple Remote is good for.  
Information and advice will be much appreciated.

Pat

iPad mail problem

I have an odd problem with an email on my iPad.
When I scroll to that particular email mail freezes and I am unable to read, 
delete or escape from that email.  If I quit and reopen mail all other messages 
behave as they should but the problem remains with this particular email.  I 
can access the email in question on my iPad and can see nothing unusual with it.
Any suggestions as to how I can delete this rogue?

Hi Barry,

Depending on what Mail Account Server you are using, the details may be a 
little different.
Find the option that keeps a copy on the server. where it is will depend on 
what email program you have. 

1) Go to advanced settings for your mail account
2) uncheck trash on iPad 
3) check trash on server look near bottom

If trash on iPad is checked, trashed mail stays on the iPad which essential 
means you keep seeing it in your emails.

Ronni

Have tried restarting - no luck
The message does have an attachment which was the sender's logo, as the screen 
freezes no swipes, taps etc work,  this is the major problem with this message.
I would like to delete this account from the iPad and then reinstall, however, 
there seems to be provision to add an account in mail settings but not to 
delete one.  Any advice?  Can it be done through iTunes?

Re: iPad mail problem

2010-08-13 Thread Neil Houghton

Hi Barry,

If I understand you correctly, the problem is with one specific email
message that is downloaded onto your iPad.

You want to delete it - but the action of selecting it (in order to delete
it) causes Mail to lock up.

I do not use Mail myself, but have encountered the same problem in Entourage
- where the problem was that trying to view the email caused the problem -
so it was solved by turning off the email preview.

See these previous WAMUG posts:

http://www.mail-archive.com/wamug@wamug.org.au/msg51486.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/wamug@wamug.org.au/msg51488.html


If you are having a similar problem, then there may be an equivalent
solution in Mail.


HTH

Re: iPad mail problem

2010-08-13 Thread Barry Sexstone

Neil

Yes you have understood the problem.  I have tried setting preview to none 
but no luck.  I think I will just have to leave that message on the device, not 
a real problem but it would be nice to solve it.

Thanks for the input

 Hi Barry,
 
 If I understand you correctly, the problem is with one specific email
 message that is downloaded onto your iPad.
 
 You want to delete it - but the action of selecting it (in order to delete
 it) causes Mail to lock up.
 
 I do not use Mail myself, but have encountered the same problem in Entourage
 - where the problem was that trying to view the email caused the problem -
 so it was solved by turning off the email preview.
 
 See these previous WAMUG posts:

 http://www.mail-archive.com/wamug@wamug.org.au/msg51488.html
 
 
 If you are having a similar problem, then there may be an equivalent
 solution in Mail.

 Any suggestions as to how I can delete this rogue?

 Hi Barry,
 
 Depending on what Mail Account Server you are using, the details may be a 
 little different.
 Find the option that keeps a copy on the server. where it is will depend on 
 what email program you have. 
 
 1) Go to advanced settings for your mail account
 2) uncheck trash on iPad 
 3) check trash on server look near bottom
 
 If trash on iPad is checked, trashed mail stays on the iPad which 
 essential means you keep seeing it in your emails.
 
 Cheers,
 Ronni

So that is where it is hiding, Ronni.  As I said I did search on the  
Apple site but did not know where it find it.  Can now see the file  
path.  Useful for other future references.

Hi Barry,

1. Go to Settings  Mail, Contacts, Calendars
2. Tap the name of the account you want to delete
3. Tap Delete Account in the confirmation alert that appears, tap 'Delete 
Account' again.
The account is immediately t
Removed from the iPad

Then recreate your email account.

 Have tried restarting - no luck
 The message does have an attachment which was the sender's logo, as the 
 screen freezes no swipes, taps etc work,  this is the major problem with this 
 message.
 I would like to delete this account from the iPad and then reinstall, 
 however, there seems to be provision to add an account in mail settings but 
 not to delete one.  Any advice?  Can it be done through iTunes?

 Hi Barry,
 
 Did this particular email message have an attachment?
 
 If you swipe your finger across the message horizontally. When you do that, 
 there is a Delete button showing up to the right of the message, if you 
 click the delete button do you receive a message? If so what does it say?

Hi guys

A bit wet up here.

We have a MobileMe account and I'm interested in how to use Back To  
My Mac.


Have looked on the Apple site but no luck.

Do any of you know of any good instructions on how to use Back To  
My Mac?



The best resource I have found is the ebook Take Control of Back to  
My Mac

http://www.takecontrolbooks.com/back-to-my-mac?cp=CPN90219MUG

It normally costs US$10, but User Group members can get a 30%  
discount by using the link above (The coupon is applied to ANY  
purchase you make during that session after following that link)
