Quick Question

2013-04-04 Thread Gary D.
Hi all,

I have just installed 10.8.3 for the first time and it takes up a lot of 
space. There is a file at private  var  vm with the name sleepimage 
that is 4 GB in size. Anyone know what that is? Can I delete it? There is 
also an Install OS X Mountain Lion.app in the appllication folder. Do I 
need that too?

Thanks in advance,

Gary

 string a cable. I've tried TV – WLAN – Router – Ethernet – Mini as well 
 as TV – WLAN – Router – built-in Airport – Mini, all to no avail. I have

 The TV is a Panasonic model TX-L37ETW5 (could be a specific German

 ... and the only issue is that the two devices don't yet communicate twith 
 each other, which is a software issue, not a networking one. 

 Without that software, neither device is offering any services on the 
 network that the other one knows about, so you cannot 'see' them.

I am happy to report that I have been successful. Bruce was right that it 
is a software problem and Kris steered me to Twonky Server which was 
exactly what I needed (says so in the manual but I was off on another 
tangent. Sometimes it pays to read the manual carefully - if only they were 
better written.)

Thanks again everyone.

Access Problem from TV to Mini

2013-01-01 Thread Gary D.
 

Pretty far OT but maybe someone can give me a tip to get me off dead center.

I have a new Panasonic TV that is WLAN capable with which I have internet 
access (YouTube, etc.) but I have not been able to access my Mac Mini 
running 10.6.8 so that I can display my pictures, video clips, etc. on the 
TV. I have turned on sharing, set sharing using both AFP and FTP, marked 
folders and volumes for sharing and turned off the firewall but I still 
can't get connected. Entering the IP address given by the mini for access 
in the TV bowser brings up an can't access error message. Any ideas about 
what I am doing wrong or haven't taken into consideration. Any tips would 
be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Mini Problem

2011-04-29 Thread Gary D.
Help! My wife's G4 Mini (A1103) is acting up and I am at the hair-
pulling stage (which I can't afford to loose). The HD has two
partitions: 10.5 and 10.4/9.2.2. Both partitions appear in the System
Profiler and the Startup Manager as well as Disk Utility but neither
in the System Preferences Startup Disk Panel. When it is switched on,
it boots the 10.5 partition and runs normally. If I try to switch to
the other partition with the startup manager, the spoked-wheel rotates
endlessly. I have tried all the usual measures (Disk Utility repair
and permissions, Disk Warrior, PRAM and NVRAM reset, 10.5.8 Combi
Update, etc.). I would reinstall the 10.5 System but when the mini
restarts to load the system, the OD grinds back and forth endlessly.
I've let it run for 3/4 hr. to no avail although Disk Warrior loaded
and ran normally from the OD. I haven't replaced the battery but it
checked OK a couple of weeks back when I upgraded the RAM.

Is there a preference panel that I need to to trash? Any other
suggestions?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Gary

Re: USB plug case sparks

 The hub works fine still, but somehow

Your might try rotating the plug of the computer OR the power supply
of the hub to bring the two sources into phase although it is probably
harmless.

 When in Digest Mode, at the end of each and every message, the Low End

 Usually, and in the other LEM Lists I receive (all in Digest Mode),
 the footer does not carry over into the message to which one is
 replying.
 The LEM Footer appears only once at the end of the Digest.

 On this particular post to which I am replying now, I have deleted the

Thanks for the clarification. I guess my post was a bit cryptic.
Having to hunt through the You received this message ... footers to

Problem with Burning Photo CD

2010-03-28 Thread Gary D.
Hi all,

This is probably OT but I am pulling what is left of my hair out and
running out of blank disks. The task seems quite simple: Photos of an
event are to be burnt to CDs and distributed to those involved. The
only complication is I wanted to include a silde show with music and
Ken Burns effect which I set up in iPhoto and exported to the Desktop.
From there, the xxx.mov slide show runs as expected. Then I fired up
Toast and, using the Data Mode, burned it together with a folder
containing the pictures to a CD. But the slide show won't run from the
disk!!! It starts up ok but then quickly mixes the pictures and the
sound stutters or it just quits. Other attemps haven't solved the
problem. I would be very grateful if someone could tell me how to do
this correctly.

Thanks in advane.

MDD hangs on Startup

2010-01-24 Thread Gary D.
Hi all,

I'm having an annoying problem with my MDD (2003) running 10.4.11 that
I haven't been able to solve. It almost always hangs during the first
attempt to start but nearly always starts on the second attempt. I've
replaced the battery and cloned the software to another drive for
startup as well as run the usual utilities but to no avail. Suspicious
is that, when it doesn't start, this is in the System Log:

Jan 23 15:53:22 localhost mDNSResponder: Couldn't read user-specified
Computer Name; using default “Macintosh-” instead

When it starts, it looks like this:

Jan 23 15:55:20 GDearths-Power-Mac-G4-MDD configd[39]: setting
hostname to GDearths-Power-Mac-G4-MDD.local

and then runs normally.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

 I am also having problems with Mail. New Mac mini, installed 10.5, ran
 Migration Assistant, mail boxes empty, would not get mail, would not
 quit, had to be forced to quit, reinstalled Mail, same situation.

 I will try deleting and reestablishing my accounts and report back.

base article which solved the problem:

Spotlight

2009-02-23 Thread Gary D.

Greeting to all,

I'm having a problem with Spotlight (sorry if OT but I will keep it
short).

I'm running 10.4.11 on a MDD. I have two HDD, normal and backup. I
backup regulary with SuperDuper. I would like to stop Spotlight from
indexing volumes on the Backup HDD so that I don't always get double
results. I open the Privacy tab and drag the volumes into the window -
nothing happens. I click on the + and select the volumes - nothing
happens. If I drag the normal volumes into the window, everything
works as advertised. Am I doing something wrong or do I have a
corruption of some kind?

TIA for any and all tips

Gary D.

This results from forgetting to put a  at the end of a link. Annoys
me also.
