Re: Shaded background printing Mail and Pages Documents
Hello Ronni, “Scale to fit Paper Size” is selected. Starting in Safe Mode unfortunately made no difference. So the problem remains but I really appreciate you trying to help resolve it.

Re: Shaded background printing Mail and Pages Documents
Hello Graham, If Scale to Fit Paper Size is selected - Deselect it. It seems to be a 'Page Break' issue in Mail - Not a printer problem.

Hello Ronni, The problem remains whether Scale to Fit Paper Size is selected or deselected. The default is deselected. I’ll do some more research on “Page Break” issue in Mail - good tip.

Re: Shaded background printing Mail and Pages Documents
Hello Ronni, I forgot to mention that this is a problem only with my Macbook Air (purchased 2011 using Mavericks 10.9.3). My iMac (purchased January 2013 using Mavericks 10.9.3 and a Kyocera FS-C2526 MFP printer) has neither of the problems. However, other iMacs on Mavericks also have the split line issue - see the following from an Apple discussion site: HT5361 Line cut off when printing email - page break issue ... discussions.apple.com › ... › OS X Mavericks › Discussions Mar 19, 2014 - When I print a copy of an email that I compose, sometimes the page break between page 1 and page 2 of the printed email cuts a line horizontally in half - that is, the top half of the last line ... iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2). Issues with multiple things since Mavericks update - Apple Support ... 25 Oct 2013 Swipes in Safari stop working: Apple Support Communities 22 Oct 2013 More results from discussions.apple.com Cheers, Graham On 20 May 2014, at 3:00 pm, Ronda Brown ro...@mac.com wrote: Hello Graham, If Scale to Fit Paper Size is selected - Deselect it.

Hi Jewels That was a good suggestion. I changed my Password, rebooted and found I got into my machine without my Password!!

Re: Possible security breach
Thanks Jewels. It’s not Keychain that is the bother. It is the boot access when I start the machine. It doesn’t require any kind of password to open up and get into the operating system. This worries me. I have changed by bank and credit card passwords over the phone, not using my computer. They should be OK if there was a problem. But the problem remains. How is it that I can boot in without any password?

Re: Possible security breach
Hi David, Not sure what system you are running but for me, on OSX 10.6.8, it is all under system preferences/security To require a password at boot-up (actually for any account log-in) just make sure you tick ³disable automatic login² To go further (which I do) you can require a password to get back-in after you have stepped away for a while (but are still logged in) by ticking the ³require password xx minutes after sleep or screen saver begins² you can set the time xx anywhere from immediately to 4 hours but, of course, the actual time to lock-up depends on the times you have set for sleep and/or screensaver. I have mine set for 5 minutes after sleep/screensaver which means if I am still working in the office (but not pounding the keyboard) and notice the screensaver kick-in, then I have a few minutes to ³wake-up² the computer before being locked-out I mean it¹s not a big deal anyway but it¹s what I find convenient for me ;o) HTH Neil -- Neil R.

Hi David, Using Mountain Lion or Mavericks - System Preferences Security Privacy - General You will see 'A login password has been set for this user' Then Select: -Require password 'immediately' after sleep or screen saver begins Show a message when the screen is locked Disable Automatic login Cheers, Ronni 17 MacBook Pro 2.3GHz Quad-Core i7 “Thunderbolt 2.3GHz / 8GB / 750GB @ 7200rpm HD OS X 10.9.3 Mavericks Windows 7 Ultimate (under sufferance) On 21 May 2014, at 11:49 am, Neil Houghton n...@possumology.com wrote: Hi David, Not sure what system you are running but for me, on OSX 10.6.8, it is all under system preferences/security To require a password at boot-up (actually for any account log-in) just make sure you tick “disable automatic login” To go further (which I do) you can require a password to get back-in after you have stepped away for a while (but are still logged in) by ticking the “require password xx minutes after sleep or screen saver begins” you can set the time xx anywhere from immediately to 4 hours – but, of course, the actual time to lock-up depends on the times you have set for sleep and/or screensaver.

Re: Macbook pro Airport
Thanks ronni, I did what you suggested. Telstra 1438 shows in the pull down list but airport remains ghosted out after it scans. The signal is good. I still cant turn airport off either.
