Re: Checkbook Pro Inexplicably Crashing

Hi Sarai,
I must say, you condensed the instructions down to the bear is sensual minimum 
compared to the instructions on the Splasm webpage! Excellent job!!

By the way, are you aware of any possibility that Splasm may develop a check 
printing feature?

– Bill and leader dog Holland
P.S.
I intend to contact them with the above suggestion, would you be likewise 
interested?

Hi everyone:
I cannot figure out how to see the orders under Amazon your orders section. I 
can see order date, prices, and ship to address. I cannot click on the orders

Re: Using VMware on Macbook, any Advices?

2016-02-19 Thread Phil Halton
Remy, search the Applevis.com website for "sharpkeys".
There is a podcast on using sharp keys, and also a guide for using fusion 
settings to map an insert key to the ~key. The second method of using fusion 
keys remap is another option that doesn't require Sharkeys. You may want to try 
that as it is probably the simplest way to go. At any rate go through the Apple 
this website and read the tutorials podcast and other stuff that comes up 
relating to this issue

RE: Any comments on Apple's position against unreasonable search

2016-02-19 Thread Simon Fogarty
Surely the back door to the ios app to allow the FBI in after the act has been 
committed isn't the thing they should be focusing on.

 Why don’t they start doing something to stop the actions not only against the 
USA but the rest of the world.

I'd say lock down the middle east and everyone but the people that  should be 
there get the heck out.

 Like in the late 70s early 80s when people stopped flying in there
Then when the locals start running out of food and resources start working a 
deal with them.

Mind you then there are people like Richard branson I guess who start doing the 
opposite

 When you lock your iPhone the key too encrypt it all is on your

 iPhone, not even if they wanted, if you use a lock code on say 4 
 digits, there is 1 different combinations, and it gets worse 
 seen form Fbis point of view, because after i believe it is 10 
 times wrong passcode, the phone erases it self.
 I personally like this feature, not that i have anything 
 interesting on my phone, but i like the fact that my data is 
 actually secure, problem is if they find a way to force apple into 
 making something that works, even if it is just for one iPhone, 
 guess  what the next time the shit hits the fan there will be 
 precedence for having apple roll their magic again.
 And that might be the dangerous part. It seems that google is with 
 apple on this one at least they sites with them, but have anyone 
 heard any Ms comments?

First then, make sure that all your contacts' information is up to date.  You 
need not delete the entire contact card but only need to update the information 
in it.  Next, it almost sounds to me like what you're after is deleting the 
previous recipients' from Apple mail.

Re: Cleaning adressbook in mac mail.

2016-02-19 Thread Ray Foret Jr
Wait.  Do you want to get rid of those people's contact cards, or do you really 
want to get rid of those people as previous recipients of e-mails?  It makes 
every difference in how you do it.  IF what you want to do is get rid of 
previous recipients but keep them in your contacts, then you need to open the 
previous recipients table off the window menu.  From there, just go to the ones 
you want to get rid of and press delete on them.

Same thing with contacts only with Contacts, you open the contacts app first.

Re: Syncing Apps between itunes and iPhone

2016-02-19 Thread Anne Robertson
Hello Paul,

I always download apps to my Mac, but I sync using the USB cable. However, it 
should work the same way.
When you connect your iPhone to your Mac, look through your settings for apps. 
You should find a table where you can select Apps, then interact with the 
scroll area to the left of that table and you’ll find another table containing 
all your apps. Beside each app is its status: whether it is installed, to be 
installed, or not installed.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Any comments on Apple's position against unreasonable search

2016-02-19 Thread Eric Oyen
Apple can still provide the level of security needed, and with the proper 
methodology, still allow the FBI, et al to have access to the information that 
is needed (and all without having to install a backdoor). It is a  pretty 
simple arrangement, but a little hard to implement.

GarageBand and processing audio.

2016-02-19 Thread Kjsc Radio
Hello all. I am doing a project in garageband   and it has  about 20 tracks in 
it. I have 8 gigs of ram and A 2.7 GHz I core 5. I can't go in to about 10 to 
20 seconds without it stopping in the middle of my project and it popping a 
message saying garage and was unable to process the audio." The only thing I 
have running is GarageBand, and I don't get why this is happening to me. Does 
anyone know of a solution of which I can get around this? Thank you

Syncing Apps between itunes and iPhone

2016-02-19 Thread Paul Hopewell
Hello, 
I am running the latest iTunes on the latest El Capitan on my iMac and am 
running the latest IOS on my iPhone 5S. 

In the past I used to download new Apps from iTunes on my iMac and then sync 
with my iPhone to get these new Apps onto the iPhone. There used to be an 
iTunes option to sync all new and updated Apps via wifi. 

I can no longer find this iTunes option and so cannot figure out how to move 
Apps from my iMac to my iPhone. I want to do this rather than directly install 
Apps on the iPhone as I can then sync with my backup iPhone without having to 
download the App again. This is worth doing for say the Tom Tom App with is 1.8 
GB download! 

I would appreciate any tips on  how to do this using VoiceOver. 

Many thanks. 

Paul Hopewell

The thing that amazes me is how the Media in the US is totally mistaking what 
Apple has been asked to do.  Apple is not being asked to hack in to the 
specific phone, they probably can’t.  They are being asked to create a tool 
that the government can use with out limitation to circumvent any security on 
the iPhone.  That’s BS which for the easily offended is short form for horse 
hockey.

This is just another attempt like clipper was in the mid 90s to make an end run 
right around the 4th amendment.  And you also correctly state once in place 
there’s no getting rid of it.  Remember, the patriot act and father land 
security I mean home land security were also supposed to be temporary.  Good 
luck!

Checkbook Pro Inexplicably Crashing

2016-02-19 Thread Bill Gallik
I’m not at all sure what could possibly have happened to Checkbook Pro on my 
Mac mini, but the last time I used it all seemed well and I did shut down 
appropriately.  But when I tried opening it earlier this morning I got a crash 
report.  I rebooted the Mac but that did not help.  Can anybody offer any 
thought on what in heck happened?

No at best I think it means they are in contempt of court.  Tim Cook might also 
be somewhat personally involved as their chief but again this will be the clash 
of the titans.  A wet dream for law school professors and lawyers for decades

Very interesting.

 When you lock your iPhone the key too encrypt it all is on your

 iPhone, not even if they wanted, if you use a lock code on say 4 
 digits, there is 1 different combinations, and it gets worse

 wrong passcode, the phone erases it self.
 I personally like this feature, not that i have anything interesting 
 on my phone, but i like the fact that my data is actually secure, 
 problem is if they find a way to force apple into making something 
 that works, even if it is just for one iPhone, guess  what the next 
 time the shit hits the fan there will be precedence for having apple 
 roll their magic again.
 And that might be the dangerous part. It seems that google is with

I remember that Blackberry had to hand over keys or some how lessen the 
security of their devices to be sold in Saudi Arabia.  But then we gave the 
kingdom a Naris Systems 6400 and I thought the security problem was solved.:)  
(that device is what the NSA uses for mass data collection, at least it was)

Our friends in germany should be especially sensitive to this considering how 
much phone tapping the US does internal to their country including your chief 
executive.  That would be the equivalent of Germany bugging Obama’s cellphone. 

Anyway, Glad to see such a large company and an industry stand up on the right 
side for once.

Re: Any comments on Apple's position against unreasonable search

2016-02-19 Thread Scott Granados
Funny how that sums up most arguments whether it’s cryptography, guns or 
wrenches.

Well said.  The only problem is it’s an almost fair fight.  It’s a more fair 
fight than usual which gives me hope but Apple doesn’t get to have guns meaning 
they don’t get to grab bank accounts of their adversary and they don’t get to 
claim national security and executive action and all that.  But, you’re right 
on a financial level.  Actually, one could make a real case that Apple is more 
credit worthy although I’d counter that by factoring in all the physical 
holdings and so forth, anyway outside the scope of this list but I like the 
comparison.  Maybe the rights of the citizens will stand a chance.  Facebook 
and Twitter are behind apple as well, that’s additional war chests.  That’s a 
lot of political influence.  Ah well I think I’ll just campaign for Trump and 
then move to New Zealand when he wins.

Re: Any comments on Apple's position against unreasonable search

2016-02-19 Thread Scott Granados
Actually, I beg to disagree with you. The major media is owned by 4 
corporations for the most part.  I was the lead network engineer for 
Knight-Ridder digital which was the online portion of the publisher’s products. 
 That company no longer exists as they went the way of paper.:)  I think there 
are a lot of Journalists who feel as you do and as I hope they do and are 
impartial and let the story take them where it needs to go not them creating or 
being manipulated to create the story.  I’ve also seen the other cases where 
stories were pulled.  I’ve also seen cases where the government threatened 
station owners licenses over stories.  On the flip side though, there’s a lot 
of great citizen journalism out there and some real old school professionals 
doing creative things.the former editor of the SF Chronicle comes to mind 
with his bay area citizens project.  I was also lucky to work in a cube farm 
next to a small online team who were in your camp.  As you said you have to 
diversify your sources.  I tend to find better reporting from outside the 
country.  The national providers are way to bought and sold, fox, msnbc or 
otherwise.And since the republicans verses democrats thing came up on this 
tread, both parties are evil, both are owned by the special interests and both 
have done equal all be it different harm to our civil liberties.  I’m a very 
strict libertarian so the whole thing is nuts to me.

I think this deviates from the thread to much though, should you wish to 
continue the general journalism conversation or non apple / general technology 
/ privacy n general thread we should take it off list or else where but as this 
relates to Apple and our freedoms in general I hope this continues.  I’m happy 
to see a lively discussion it means people care.  That’s a step in the right 
direction.

2016-02-19 Thread Bill Gallik
A much wiser man than myself is quoted as saying, “A society that is willing to 
surrender privacy for the sake of security shall have neither.”

I completely support the position Tim Cook and Apple has taken in this matter.

The real question in this matter should be - why isn’t our government willing 
to take the steps to bring the individuals driving this mad terrorism to 
justice?  I’m sure western governments are quietly taking measures to make 
those persons accountable, but I believe we need a number more of Bin Laden 
like operations to “help” those folks understand the errors of their ways.  And 
more importantly, that the United States will not tolerate this insanity!

Re: Any comments on Apple's position against unreasonable search

2016-02-19 Thread Terje Strømberg
You have a valid point, but it is a double-edged sword. Apple say’s if thet let 
FBI get it, the bad guys will also get it. The backdoor in the software. I like 
the private IOS device, but if most terrorists starts to use iPhone, they have 
to give the information to FBI. There most likely is a FBI way i.e. not open up 
the backdoor in software for anyone, but for only FBI. 

Take care

I'm interested in hearing more about apple pay,

 I'd like to know how it works 
Is there any good documentation about it?

Sarai,

It sounds to me as though you were either not close enough to the actual 
transmitter which usually sits about 3 to 4 inches above the terminal's display 
or, somehow, the case was impeding the transmission.  

I suggest that you attempt a transaction with the phone out of the case and see 
what happens.  

Also, locate the actual transmitter with your hand before beginning the 
process.  After a while, you will learn where the transmitters sit, relative to 
the display, at various vendors.  For example, all of the Macdonald terminals 
are the same, just as those at Whole Foods are the same.  If you frequent a 
particular vendor, enough, you will remember where to place the phone for each. 
 

If this sounds complicated, remember that the world is made for sighted people. 
 To a sighted patron, 1 or 2 inches in any direction is of no consequence as 
hand-eye coordination is virtually instantaneous.  However, for those of us who 
are blind or low vision, 1 or 2 inches may just as well be one or two miles, 
proverbially speaking.

Hi Mark:
I do not have my phone in a normal case. I have the Spek case that covers the 
back, and a Zagg glass screen protector. I was laying my phone on top of the 
terminal then moving up a bit.
