Re: old time machine not deleting

[Joshua Tubbs]

Same here. I get a notification every once in a while saying that my drive is 
full and it can’t create another backup. I want to delete all of my Time 
Machine backups. I know they are on this drive, but there is not a folder or 
anything that tells me where they are located.

old time machine not deleting

[Jean]

Hello All:

I noticed that my external disk is reporting that it is full. After some 
investigation, I discovered that my time machine backups which are on this disk 
go back over one year. Apparently the old backups are not deleting. How do I 
fix this?
Many thanks in advance,
Jean

Re: How do I sign into apple Music? I thought I was...

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

Check if your new Mac is authorized.  Go under the Account menu to Authorize, 
then to its sub-menu.  Try to authorize your Mac.  If it allows you to 
authorize it, then you should be OK.  There are two main errors that could come 
up here.  If you already have five computers authorized, then you'll need to 
de-authorize one or all in order to make room for this new one.  Or, if it is 
already authorized, then it will tell you so, and then there's something odd 
going on.

Later...

It is an expansion of my current business. I am now contracted to do some

something which will be coming up in a couple years around technology and

 I guess I will chime in here. I was congenitally (born) blind. My brother, 
 who is two years older, is also blind.
 
 We started school at a blindness school, and then attended a bording 
 school for the blind. My parents decided to mainstream us when I entered 
 6th grade. The schools for the blind taught me certain skills such as 
 braille, quite well. Fortunately, I was mainstreamed early enough to get a 
 healthy dose of normal (sighted) culture.
 
 I attended a private highschool (the best school in the state) which I was 
 able to enter because I scored well enough on the entrance exam. Resource 
 teachers were not allowed to work at private schools, so I was pretty much 
 on my own, in an academically challenging environment, from 9th grade. 
 Note: I was registered in the nearby public highschool, so was able to see 
 a resource teacher there for 45 minutes per day, four days per week. That 
 person did the important braille transcription for tests. At school, 
 however, everything was my responsibility.
 
 I took a basic programming course when I was a senior. I enjoyed it so 
 much that I decided to become a computer systems engineer. That lasted one 
 semester at university. I broke my wrist, so could not type for 8 weeks. I 
 then floundered at a community college for a few years, became a massage 
 therapist, became a technology salesperson, became an accessibility 
 interface evaluater and an accessibility advocate, failed a couple 
 businesses, then returned to university for a bachelors in business admin 
 management followed by a masters in counseling. After I completed 
 university, I independently immigrated to New Zealand. I currently work as 
 the mental health specialist at a small doctor's clinic.
 
 I started technology working on a PDP1170 mainframe. My first personal 
 system was a Blazie Braille 'n Speak 640 which I used to access local 
 BBSs. I then went to DOS, followed by Windows. I switched to the Mac with 
 OSX Mountain Lion. I wanted to support the only mainstream company that 
 was actively fully working toward blindness accessibility.
 
 I am now dabbling with Android as well as iOS. Because Android gives more 
 control to the end user, I suspect it will eventually supercede Apple, so 
 I am working with it. I remember Beta vs VHS. Sony owned both, Beta was 
 better, so Sony licensed out VHS. Many more people worked with VHS, so it 
 eventually surpassed

Hi, Katie,

I'm so glad you got it sorted out!  That's one thing about the VU that is both 
good and bad, a reboot or reload of a file can fix many evils. :)  It's good 
because it's an easy fix, and bad, because sometimes that's what you have to do.

[Scott Granados]

On the router, make sure that either WPA2 or WPA is set, preferably WPA2. 

Mixed mode can be problematic on some chipsets.

There’s also an IPV6 issue where I think you need it set in link local mode or 
something.  We’ll start with the easy and go from there.:)

To Devon, (was This blind Apple engineer is transforming the tech world at only 22

[Donna Goodin]

Thank you, Scott.  I've been thinking about how to respond to this message 
since last night.  You hit the nail on the head.

Devon, no, I can't imagine why on earth you would be at an adult learning 
facility.  Do you have any ideas about what kind of career you might like to 
pursue?  I would suggest a visit to a community college as a starting point.  
Meet with a career counselor there, a regular career counselor is going to be 
much more likely to help you generate a broader list of options. Then maybe 
start by taking a couple of classes there.  That would be a good way to get 
your feet wet and figure out if a four-year college is for you.  If it's not, 
it will still help you come up with some better options for yourself than what 
you currently have.
Cheers,
Donna

 Hi, Donna.
 
 Yes, I’ve been learning to use the VarioUltra since May and love it! :-) 
 its the best braille display for me so far. I think its great you can just 
 connect a device like your phone via bluetooth and it works once the 
 pairing is successfully connected. I can also text or email people with 
 just my iphone and the braille display, so that’s awesome I don’t always 
 need to constantly use dictation. Its really cool that you can just charge 
 the device with a USB cable too instead of carrying around a 12 volt 
 charger. The only problem I have sometimes is opening documents. 
 Yesterday, I tried opening a couple files with the USB stick connected to 
 the device. They were in .docx format, an every time I’d press the 
 navistick to open the file, I would get a warning that said the file could 
 not be opened. Really strange. The VU is the lightest and smallest display 
 I’ve ever seen compared to my old Braille Lite 40 and the BrailleNote 
 MPower. Those were the 2 previous notetakers I used with braille displays. 
 I’ll be getting some more training again with the VU in a couple days, so 
 hopefully I can find out why the documents were not opening from my flash

Mac Mini and wireless headphones

[Martin Brown]

I have tried to use a set of wireless headphones on my Mac Mini, but get a
constant hum in the background. I have tried them on my Windows machine and
my wife has tried them on her iMac, and in both instances they perform
flawlessly. Just wondering if anyone might suggest a possible cause, and
even better, a possible fix.
