Copy both lines to a text editor (TextEdit works fine), put your cursor at the beginning of the second line and press the Delete key. This will cause the URL to appear all together on the same line (make sure there are no spaces anywhere), but be careful: only the part which is underlined is active. If you click anywhere in the underlined area of the URL you will still get the error. Instead, double click in the part of the line which is NOT underlined, so that the whole line becomes selected, then drag the selected text onto an open Browser window.

Re: [ADMIN] - WAMUG Survey
the survey is wrongly setup, most of the questions are for financial members, but have to be filled in/answered by anyone, which is not possible, thus the survey cannot be completed returned you may have to change a number of question or accept partially filled in surveys James SAD Technic U3 6 Chalkley Pl Bayswater WA Australia +618 9370 5307 mob 0414 421132 (international +614 14421132) sad...@iinet.net.au http://www.members.iinet.net.au/~saddas/ Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.

Re: [ADMIN] - WAMUG Survey
Sorry James, but I would tend to disagree. Out of the 10 questions, I see 2 that are related to financial members. Question 2 (are you a financial member) and 3 (what benefits do you think should differ). The survey is there for a guide to help the committee work on a) expanding the group and b) to get feedback for meetings and other things to do with meetings. So far we've had 32 responses which I think is great and will be very beneficial to the committee to help strengthen WAMUG overall. But the survey does allow partially completed anyway.

Returning to Service are: Peter Botman Peter Hinchliffe Daniel Kerr Carlo Margio Pete Smith Resigning is: Weitse van der Kooi New members are: Jane Griffiths Maureen Smith Graeme Winters (great to see you back Graeme!) Following some vigorous discussion at last night's meeting, we are looking forward to some new and exciting directions for WAMUG in 2012. The survey that Daniel has published will be very helpful in defining some of these new ideas. For those who have missed it, the survey can be found at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/PWT63NV. If you haven't done so yet, please take a look and answer whatever questions you can. The more feedback, the better.

Re: Back up not working
Graeme, You say 'I have in place a 2 Tb WD drive as my Time Machine'. What do you mean by 'in place'? Is this drive an internal drive, or is it an external drive? As you have an iMac, I assume it is an external drive unless you replaced the optical drive. In the case of an external drive, what type of connection is there between that drive and your Mac (Firewire, USB)? You say 'Attached to this is a 1 TB WD drive'. I therefore assume you have a firewire connection as such a connection allow one to connect one drive to another. This additional info is useful to allow me to work out what may be going wrong.

Can anyone assist with a solution?? Maybe Deja Vu uses Perl and there is some problem with the Perl interpreter. Often individual errors generate multiple lines in the error log and the first of these lines has the clue to the real problem, so the last 20 lines or so of the log might provide more information. Could you post these for us to look at? You can test if the Perl interpreter is working but it involves using Terminal and a couple of simple Unix commands. Do you feel confident doing that sort of thing?
