I don't have Chrome installed and won't install it.

Either ‘Shift-Command-F’ or ‘Ctrl-Command-F’ should solve it if it was just 
that.  It is NOT that.  It's some sort of bug.

 Upon opening Safari nothing works; the same with the App store.
 If re-starting Safari will work, then if closed and re-opened will stop

DVD burn gives blank disc

2014-10-24 Thread David Noel
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?

Sorry not an answer for Rosemary, but allied problem. I use both
Safari and Chrome (also sometimes Firefox), but since about 2 weeks
ago, Safari has the heading This version of Safari is no longer
supported. Please upgrade to a supported browser..

I'm still on 10.6.8, which is probably why the message appears. Do I
just carry on using the unsupported Safari until it collapses, or is
there any way of updating it while still on 10.6.8?

Re: DVD burn gives blank disc

2014-10-24 Thread Daniel Kerr
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,…..)

Kind regards
Daniel

Hi David,

The highest Safari level for 10.6.8 is the 5.1.10 that you are on.   
What it means is amongst other things they cannot be sure of the security 
aspect.
As apple are no longer supporting Snow Leopard.

Yosemite

2014-10-24 Thread Severin Crisp
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

2014-10-24 Thread Ronni Brown
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.

 Sorry for taking over the network!
 My husband's Macbook has a problem with Safari and the App store.
 Upon opening Safari nothing works; the same with the App store.
 If re-starting Safari will work, then if closed and re-opened will stop 
 working.
 
 Anybody come upon this and solved this?
 
 Cheers

Re: Yosemite with chrome downloads

2014-10-24 Thread Marlene Oostryck
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

 Sorry not an answer for Rosemary, but allied problem. I use both
 Safari and Chrome (also sometimes Firefox), but since about 2 weeks
 ago, Safari has the heading This version of Safari is no longer
 supported. Please upgrade to a supported browser..
 
 I'm still on 10.6.8, which is probably why the message appears. Do I
 just carry on using the unsupported Safari until it collapses, or is
 there any way of updating it while still on 10.6.8?

 Any reason Why you are using Chrome instead of Safari?
 Safari in Yosemite is faster than Chrome and Firefox

 I don't have Chrome installed and won't install it.
 
 Either ‘Shift-Command-F’ or ‘Ctrl-Command-F’ should solve it if it was just
 that.  It is NOT that.  It's some sort of bug.

 Anyone have any problems with Chrome downloads or inserting files?
 When I try to download a file or attach one the window is too large. I can't
 do anything but press enter and hope. There is no way to close or cancel.
 I can't re-size the window upwards to see the button.
 The dock is in the way.
 Anyone got any ideas?
 
 Cheers

 I have put in a formal query to Wacom.  
 Has anyone any comments to offer?

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.
