Re: List Behaviour (Was: Moving to Google Groups)
Quoth Amber Robey : If the message does show up - you know you are subscribed and have also contributed something meaningful to the group at the same time. There's just one little problem, Amber. I'm receiving list mail from both the old group and the new group -- and that's quite OK, since I'm still subscribed to both. However, when I try to post from the address I'm using right now, Google groups bounces it back to me and claims I'm not subscribed -- even though they're sending me list mail. I'll give this another week and then just unsub if it's not fixed. I mean, what's the sense in being subscribed if I can't post? A.J. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: List Behaviour (Was: Moving to Google Groups)
Hello Woody, On 25-Feb-06, at 6:09 AM, woodyduncan wrote: Why am I still getting messages from maclaunch if the list has been switched to google ? You need to unsubscribe from the MacLaunch lists if you wish to leave them. To do so, all you have to do is look at the footer of this message and click on the link. It will open a new e-mail for you and from there you just hit send and presto, you'll be unsubscribed. I have four messages this morning from maclaunch, and none from google. Mostly what I get from google is test, test, test. Sorry...we have asked people not to send test messages to the list and they continue to do so. There is not much we can do about it at this point except continue to ask people not to send test messages to the group. As Dan Knight recently noted, test messages waste bandwidth and are frustrating to the list membership as a whole. Just post your comments to the group - if they don't show up, contact one of the list nannies for assistance - OFF LIST and we will respond ASAP. Also, Why all this talk about who said what that was inappropriate back when ? Unfortunately, new incidents sometimes spark old discussions and everything gets dredged up again. If it becomes abusive and/or inappropriate, or the list nannies ask for it to stop and people ignore those requests, they can expect to face a temporary suspension. I was hoping for discussion of some computer related topics. I do appreciate the time people give of themselves to help others. But, I mostly ask questions because I'm such a newbie at this tech stuff. I provide answers and advice on other lists where I have a bit of experience. I honestly appreciate the input of those members on the list who genuinely want to use it for the purpose for which it was intended - discussion of computer related topics.

Re: connecting at an iCafe
On Feb 21, 2006, at 8:36 AM, Peter Saint James wrote: What I would think would be the thing to do in such a situation, I have never seen anyone do, and I wonder why. Can't they just look up these setting on one of their machines in the Windows equivalent of System Preferences? If it's possible, where is the information? I assume it's in the Control Panel somewhere. Probably under network, right? If your computer cannot figure those things out, it cannot connect, and those numbers are not on your system anywhere. Hoo, boy, some basics: Those are the critical addresses needed for your computer to navigate the internet. IP Address. Every system connected to the internet needs one of these, and it needs to be unique. This is typically expressed as a number like: 192.168.134.72 This is KIND of like stating my street address as: Arizona.Tucson.85721.1703 East Mabel Street The farther to the left the number the wider an area it covers. Since the IP protocol was designed to facilitate a network of networks (what the Internet really is is a vast collection of mutually cooperating, smaller local networks) your computer needs to know who is 'local' and who isn't. The Subnet Mask (typically a number like 255.255.255.0 or any number of combinations like that) is a numerical construct, that when OR'ed (a computer operation) against an IP address tells the system whether it's local or not. If it's local, it can contact the system directly. If it isn't, it needs to contact the outside world. You do that through the Gateway, which is your local network's 'door' to the rest of the internet. The DNS address is actually a later innovation (the seminal paper describing TCP/IP by Cerf and Kahn was published in 1974 http:// tinyurl.com/e94ne http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP-IP, DNS not until 1983 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System) that allowed us to attach names www.google.com, to IP addresses : dbdev2:~/Desktop/wikicalc johnson$ host www.google.com www.google.com is an alias for www.l.google.com. www.l.google.com has address 66.102.7.104 www.l.google.com has address 66.102.7.147 www.l.google.com has address 66.102.7.99 That is the result of using a DNS server, the last bit you need, is the system that translates (or facilitates the translation of) that name: www.google.com to an address the computer can actually use: 66.102.7.104 There are two ways (three-ish, actually) to get these addresses to your computer: DHCP and Manual, the two choices you have in your networking control panel or preferences. A DHCP server sits on a local network and waits for computers to say, essentially, help! where am I? Who am I? Where is the rest of the world? This uses a lower level of networking than TCP/IP to accomplish, and will only work on a local network. The DHCP server then checks to see if it's allowed to talk to your computer, and if so, tells it those four vital numbers it needs. This is how home cable routers work, in fact. The other way, Manual, needs a human who knows this, and so needs a geek handy. The -ish way is Bonjour, ex-Rendezvous, aka ZeroConf http:// www.zeroconf.org/, which is an Appletalk-ish self discovery mechanism where by computers local to each other can trade this information around, without the need for a DHCP server. They can at least talk to each other, but at least ONE of them needs to know how to get out, if any of them are to do so. So when you go to an internet cafe, one of three things will happen: Your computer is set to DHCP, and the server gives you an address, and all is happy happy. Your computer is set to DHCP, but the server doesn't recognize you, and won't give you the addressess. Not happy happy. Your computer needs to be set to manual, and given an address by a geek. -- Bruce Johnson This is the sig who says 'Ni!' -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

If you are worried about such things go and read up on them before making assumptions and spreading panic. There is no difference between Google, Yahoo, the company that currently runs the LEM mailing lists or any other internet company except for Google trying to do the right thing as a company policy no matter the cost. The government can demand any information from any internet company. Google only made the news because they refused, the others handed the information over. Yahoo, AOL, Microsoft and others have attempted to add wording to their licenses to give them ownership of their users content. Every time people have objected and the wording has been changed. The very idea that a content distributor can own your content is absurd, though we have to endure this petty argument every so often. If anyone is really worried about Google doing bad things with your content or information go read the Terms of Use and Privacy documents for them and their competitors. You might be surprised at how similar they all are. You might also be surprised at how honest Google is about what information they collect and just how they use it. All websites collect information on the people that use them. It takes effort not to collect information. And in regards to all the complaints about subscribing to the Google Groups. I subscribed using an old version of Safari and my Yahoo account quite easily.

Re: accessing mpeg video files on OS X ?
The most flexible way will cost you $20 - that' s the price of Apple's QuickTime MPEG2 Playback Component. With that installed, you can use the wonder - and free - program MPEG Stream Clip to export the video to dv. Hi Luis, If I buy this MPEG2 Playback component, will I then definitely be able to convert the MPEG video to DV ? Will it convert any MPEG video file or just certain ones ? Amber I have this component installed and I can convert MPEG2 files to dv, to quicktime movies, etc., using the free MPEG Stream Clip. For using with iMovie, either export directly to DV (File-Export to DV...) or export to Quicktime and select the appropriate DV codec. I can also view these MPEG2 files (but not edit them) in QuickTime Player (which is why they call it *playback* component; even QT PRO - which I have - cannot edit MPEG2). Of course, I cannot guarantee that this will work with *any* files; but since you can already play your files, you can probably confirm in VLC if they are indeed MPEG2 and, if so, this procedure will most likely work.

Re: Website Compatibility (Stoneyfield)
I just tried the Stonyfield website: with FireFox, I get little adblock boxes all over their home graphic, and if I move the cursor around, the images sometimes pop up. Tried the same page with iCab.

Re: Website compatibility
I find that with USBank, even when I log off properly in Safari (even the latest one), I often get stuck in a loop where I just get the your session has timed out screen unless I manually search for and delete all USBank cookies. (It sure would be nice to have a search feature within the cookies list!). Some other banks or credit card sites give me a window telling me my browser is not compatible, but if I click Continue it works just fine. Regards, Harry Corsover Follow up on that: AmEx's site works fine with Safari and so does Bank of America. For that matter the state of Florida's website works fine too. We have a thing called SunPass that allows you to pass through toll plazas without having to stop and it debits via a little box. Go to the website to put more money on it and I usually use Safarinot one problem. As a matter of fact I do EVERY form of financial transaction exclusively using the web. I haven't written a check in years (about 5). Guess I've just been lucky enough to do my transactions with progressive companies...oh, my insurance company, Progressive, is totally Mac compatible.

In any case, if Quicktime Pro and the add-on will work to allow me to use this video easily in iMovie, then I have no problem forking over the money for them both.

If you can enable the debug option in Safari, you could select the Windows Microsoft Explorer user agent, which basically tells the website which browser you use. I just tried it and had no problem getting in. Initially, before I changed the user agent, I got the same message but now it appears to be fine. It's really a pity that developers are so lazy that they code for only a specific platform. The Internet was supposed to be platform and OS agnostic but the dominance of Windows and the constant push from Microsoft with their specific extensions to the HTML language has skewed the direction of the Internet and many websites only assume that you're running Windows and using Internet Exploiter...

I want to complain because of the way your web site is locking out all non-Windows, non-Internet Exploiter users by designing a web site that relies on non-standard extensions to Internet standards, namely ActiveX. Frankly, with all the problems that we have heard over the last few years about how unsecure Exploiter and Windows for that matter are, I can't understand why you keep encouraging this platform and can't demonstrate more imagination to be able to deliver your web content without relying on extensions that were lame attempts by Microsoft to try dominating the web. Haven't you read many publications, even ones dedicated to Windows, recommending their readers to stop using Explorer? I'm really disappointed by this situation and until it is resolved, I will unfortunately stop buying any of your products.

Well, then you're stuck and should email them to let them know they're losing customers. Laurent, I work with an otherwise excellent company that uses ActiveX for training web conferences. So far, I've had to use VPC in order to participate. Even with VPC 7.x on a 15 AlBook 1.25GHz with 1 GB RAM and OS 10.4.5, doing anything in Windows is painfully slow. Are there options that could be suggested to these programmers to make this process platform-independent? I'm thinking that there must be ways to do web conferences (where participants can see what the presenter is doing on her/his computer in real time) that don't depend on MS-only software...
