Well, as a web-developer I can and will make the following guarantee:

Any comments would be appreciated please.
Is this really an insurmountable problem?

won't, but if you would like me to quote, I'd be happy to.

Intermittent sound from TiBook 667 DVI

2005-03-01 Thread Rod

Hi All!

Just wondering if anyone else gets this problem.  I have a TiBook 667 DVI
running 10.3.8 and 9.2.2.  The sound seems pretty low, where the half way
point of the sound volume is actually silent.  Then sometimes when the
Powerbook goes to sleep or I install something that affects the system (or
even run YASU), the sound becomes loud but very distorted.  It also cuts out
after a second of distortion.  When I reboot, the chime is perfect (every
time).  In OS 9, I have only encountered the problem once, which rectified
itself after playing a dvd.

I have clean installed OS X, wiped the drive and reinstalled everything,
wiped the drive and installed just 10.3, wiped the drive and reinstalled
from the original software restore cds (10.1.4 and 9.2.2).  I have the same
problem in 10.1.4, 10.3, 10.3.7 and 10.3.8.

Is this a common problem, or do I have the beginnings of a failing logic
board?  I have also tried a Open Firmware reset, PRAM zap and a PMU reset.
The sound seems to come back if it is left asleep for a long period of time,
or I run something like Diskwarrior.

Any ideas?

Make sure you're not doing Get Info on an alias

Make sure the file is unlocked

Try turning virtual memory off before doing get info (and make sure 
to turn it back on)

One thing to make sure is that the program isn't running, so double check
that you've quit Microsoft Word.

Also sometimes I've found if you've got sharing turned on, this can affect
it as well, so turn it off.

Check that it's the original you're trying to change and not an alias.

Hopefully something there  helps.

Re: RAM Allocation in OSX

2005-03-01 Thread Mark Secker

some programs can have ram settings done within their own preferences.
Photoshop is the only example that I know of personally... and is a 
good idea (or so I've been told by a TAFE CG lecturer) to set it to 
about 75% of total memory - and can vouch for it significantly 
speeding up Photoshop and cutting back on it's scratch disk access. 
Though probably in this case Photoshop is creating something like 
it's own, hidden, RAM scratch disk rather than actually grabbing the 
memory for the application its self.

It's no longer needed as under OS X each application thinks it has a 
*lot* of RAM available to it thanks to what's known as 'virtual 
memory'.


Of course, this means that you can run out of 'swap' space on disk as 
virtual memory is 'paged out' to disk when it's not in use. When this 
happens, bad things occur.

Re: Intermittent sound from TiBook 667 DVI

2005-03-01 Thread Rod

Hi All,

For those who want to know (I never got a response from all the places I
posted!), it seems to be an issue with OS X putting the sound manager to
sleep when there is no sound output for a certain amount of time.  It seems
that this is a common problem on TiBooks.  The fix is to run a background
app that sends out a silent sound every ten minutes.  It doesn't happen in
9 because 9 uses a different system for sound and does not put it to sleep.
I figure that after a system update the sound manager may have also been
updated, thus being switched off at some point.

NeoOffice/J

2005-03-01 Thread Edward Arrowsmith
Does anyone have knowledge of NeoOffice/J? Its the OpenOffice.org baby 
with an interface.


I want to change the default text in the windows as its very difficult 
to read. It appears to me to be a caps font in light grey but I can't 
find a preference option. I also would like to change the default 
letter document font from Times to Garamond but the instructions appear 
to be written for Windows although the program is for OS X.


I thought it was going to be a less bloated writing program than Word 
but it seems to be full of stuff and seems to have a lot of 
pre-formatting. Can anyone recommend it or should I stick with Word?


thanks and Best wishes
edward

Re: Lost Dreamweaver files

2005-03-01 Thread Jon Davison
Thanks to everyone for your input with my request for info about the 
lost web page. I am gobsmacked at how quickly and accurately everyone 
responded to this. A great service!  It really is comforting to know 
that an answer is only about 30 minutes away.


I ditched a few files on my remote site and low and behold all is okay. 
Usually I get a prompt 'Quota exceeded, permission denied'. I did not 
get this prompt, hence my concern. So all is well. Simple really.


Thanks again Wamug

Cheers
Jon

You could also try AbiWord

http://www.abisource.com/

Might be a bit more user friendly.

Have fun,

Will new 8Mb iinet plans work with my netgear?

2005-03-01 Thread Christof S.
Hi all,

I've been unable to find out whether my old Netgear DG824M Wireless ADSL
Modem Gateway will support the new 8Mb iinet broadband2 plans. If it will
support the new protocol, will the modem function at 1.5Mb?

I would appreciate any light shed on this topic.


Regards,


Christof S.
