Re: Emails show time 3hrs behind
Hi People, It seems thisTime Stamp error is only happening in Entourage, not in Apple Mail? If so check your prefs in Entourage they are possibly incorrect. Check what Time Zone is set for New Events and email. Cheers, Ronni On 17/12/2009, at 4:13 PM, Geoffrey Barbara Maidment wrote: This is an interesting discussion!

Re: Emails show time 3hrs behind
Hi Barb, Entourage is known for this time stamp problem. Could you just check this please? Open System Preferences, Date Time Preferences. First ensure that the correct time zone is selected, and then make sure that the correct date and time are entered. Then, close System Preferences, and re-launch Entourage (quit and re-launch if it was already open). Go to Entourage Preferences. Under General Preferences, click Calendar. Select the proper Default time zone for new events from the menu, and click OK. The problem has to be caused by the Time not being set correctly on one of these: 1. The Mail Server that sent the message 2. The Mail server that received the message or 3. The Time is set correctly but an incorrect Time Zone has been selected. I had this issue with Bob Howells email quite some time back, we eventually solved the Time Stamp problem ... it was his ISP's Mail Server was using an incorrect time.

The only way to delete photos in iPhoto is to delete them in iPhoto and when you do and empty the iPhoto trash the photo is totally removed from the iPhoto - the original, the thumbnail and the modified version if there is one. Is this NOT happening, the Photos are NOT actually deleting?

Re: Printers compatible with latest Mac OS
Hi Stephen, Did you try my suggestion that I sent yesterday? HP Scan Pro is no longer supported, but the new installers include HP Scan which does work in Snow Leopard. Also note that HP Device Manager is not supported under Snow Leopard and will not be returning. Most of the functionality can be found inside of HP Utility. Download new updated Drivers from HP for your C4480 All-In-One Printer. It does say OS X 10.6 compatible. This seems to solve the problem but scanning is now a self contained application and not part of the HP photosmart studio software. This is the Direct Link for your C4480: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=oj-74785-1lc=endlc=encc=uslang=enos=219product=3418705 Some people prefer to use Preview.app or Image Capture.app instead of the HP Scan.

With this Epson Scan applic I was able to confirm a connection between my computer and the scanner. Up until then I could print but not scan. Do you have such and appl? HP Scan or whatever?

Re: Qpix FS170 handheld scanners
I also purchased the Qpix FS170 on Paul's recommendation. Mine is slightly different to the one in the advert. On the OfficeWorks scanner there are 5 control buttons on the top of the scanner. The $79 one is possibly an earlier model? Kevin Sorry Gary, I now see the Film Slide Scanner F100 doesn't give you any details as to what Brand it is.
