DVD burn gives blank disc
I am wondering if anyone can give me a suggestion as to why burning a DVD with Toast sometime gives me a blank disc. I'm using both Toast 8 and Toast 10, and burning a disc image created previously by Toast. The burn appears to go normally, and Toast 10 even says Disc XXX burned successfully, but on inserting the disc into a reader (OS X 10.6.8, 2 GHz Intel Core Duo iMac), the system says You have inserted a blank disc. I actually have 2 disc burners, the internal one (now not always reliable), and an external Samsung one which I use routinely. I have wondered if the system gets confused which drive it is writing to, though I do check the Recorder Settings carefully. The problem happens quite a lot, but not always, sometimes the burn goes straightforwardly. Any ideas?

Re: DVD burn gives blank disc
I've had the same happen with a client's machine. It won't read burnt disks on 10.6.8 on either an internet burner and an external burner). Yet they worked ok in other computers with a different OS. A full erase of the system and a clean install with manually moving the data back. And the disks worked ok and read fine. (This was after trying multiple other things to try solve the issue as well. Worked through lots of different things, nothing solved it. So appeared to be something corrupted over time,….). And it's still working ok to this day. So though I can't offer an exact why or what,…just thought I'd mention that. May not be the same issue as yours, but thought I'd mention it anyway. Something to try though, could be just check for updates. Then re-install Toast. I also had a feeling there was a Toast plug in that could be removed, but don't have that in front of me at the moment. (There also used to be a toast burner add-on that helped sometimes as well. (if I can find my notes on it from a long time ago,…..)

Yosemite
I have had an easy transition to Yosemite with just one “error”. The controller for my Wacom Intuos2 XD tablet was shown as not compatible. Internet correspondence on this suggests Wacom may not issue a support preference pane though there seems some doubt about this. It is an old one and very useful but maybe a replacement is the best option. I have put in a formal query to Wacom. Has anyone any comments to offer?

Re: Yosemite and system software
What are the details of your husband's MacBook? Are you sure that the MacBook is supported for Yosemite? After installing Yosemite did he respond to all the- Immediate Questions - Password Prompts - Optimization (which includes Spotlight re-indexing your disk)? Has he been able to sign in with his Apple ID? Safari - Might be a cookies, cache, or extensions, issue. From the Safari menu bar click Safari Preferences then select the Privacy tab. Click: Remove All Website Data Then delete the cache. Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go Go to Folder Type or copy paste the following ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash. Quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that doesn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions. From the Safari menu bar click Safari Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

Re: Yosemite with chrome downloads
Hello David, I too had a problem this week with bank transfers to a nominated account (RABO/Macquarie Bank) which I have been doing for many years. I am using Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.10. The transfers would not go through using Safari. I only use Safari - but tried using Firefox and the transfers went through easily. So, as I prefer using Safari, I will be spending this weekend carefully going through the WAMUG posts to be dragged kicking and screaming to upgrade from my comfortable SL to Mavericks. Yosemite is a step too far! Hope it all goes well for me. Regards Marlene Oostryck On 24/10/2014, at 2:28 PM, David Noel wrote: Sorry not an answer for Rosemary, but allied problem.

Re: Yosemite
Hi Severin, Have you updated the drivers for your Wacom? http://us.wacom.com/en/support/drivers/ MacOSX - Driver 6.3.9w3 (10.7x - 10.10x) 9/10/2014 Cheers, Ronni Sent from Ronni's iPad4 On 24 Oct 2014, at 3:38 pm, Severin Crisp sevcr...@westnet.com.au wrote: I have had an easy transition to Yosemite with just one “error”. The controller for my Wacom Intuos2 XD tablet was shown as not compatible. Internet correspondence on this suggests Wacom may not issue a support preference pane though there seems some doubt about this. It is an old one and very useful but maybe a replacement is the best option. I have put in a formal query to Wacom. Has anyone any comments to offer?

Re: Yosemite
Hi again Severin, I just noticed your Wacom is a legacy - doesn't look like they have updated the drivers since 2012 Wacom Intuos2 (XD) http://us.wacom.com/en/support/legacy-drivers/ Driver 6.2.0-w4 for Mac OS X v. 10.7, 10.6 10.5 (Intel) 25 Jan2012 Ronni Sent from Ronni's iPad4 On 24 Oct 2014, at 9:40 pm, Ronda Brown ro...@mac.com wrote: Hi Severin, Have you updated the drivers for your Wacom? http://us.wacom.com/en/support/drivers/ MacOSX - Driver 6.3.9w3 (10.7x - 10.10x) 9/10/2014 Cheers, Ronni Sent from Ronni's iPad4 On 24 Oct 2014, at 3:38 pm, Severin Crisp sevcr...@westnet.com.au wrote: I have had an easy transition to Yosemite with just one “error”.

Re: Yosemite
This legacy version was fine for Mavericks but now sadly go. The same is true of the later drivers. Quite a correspondence on the internet on all this.
