Re: Anyone had any issues with OS 4.2 on your iPad ?

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Susan,

Before you update on your iPhone, this is how I updated my iPad and didn't have 
any problems (as yet).

1. Backup & Sync FIRST
2. Then download & install the update
3. Let it do another Sync

Hope you don't have any problems with the update on the iPhone.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Anyone had any issues with OS 4.2 on your iPad ?

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Carlo (sorry I misspelt your name before),

Yes, Apple are becoming greedy I feel, more like Microsoft … my god did I just 
mention Apple becoming like Microsoft … yikes!

My iPhone 3Gs has never given me a problem, everything works perfectly, but if 
Apple are going to only update the iOS software for the iPhone 4, they are 
ultimately forcing people to update their iPhones. 
Which is similar to OS X 10.6 only being able to run on Intel Macs.

Yep, Apple are becoming greedy!

Cheers,
Ronni

Only had time to do the iPad this morning. It crashed and the only way restore 
it was by using a different Mac. So, took quite a while to restore twice and 
get everything working. 

I haven't tried my iPhone 3GS yet.

Hi Ronni,

I stand corrected. I have only the original 6 tones. So there has been no 
miraculous Apple intervention for my personal iPhone. I guess Daniel Kerr is 
right when he says that this yet another excuse to upgrade to an iPhone 4. :-)

Hi Cario,

We are talking about the new 17 text tones that have been added to iphone 4's 
but not 3gs's. NOT the original 6 text tones that have always been there.
Do you have the neww 17 text tones? If you are you are the only person  that 
has ;-)

Re: Anyone had any issues with OS 4.2 on your iPad ?

Hi Rhonda,

I have an iPhone 3GS that I upgraded to OS 4.2.1 and it provides access to text 
tones (and Safari search within web page).

To set a text tone, bring up the contact in your contact list and press Edit. 
Along with ringtone, there is now a new field text tone.

Safari search within web page was a bit hard to find as well, but type a search 
term into the "Google" search field (the Google label is a bit misleading) and 
then instead of hitting the Search button, scroll to the bottom of the 
suggested search terms and press an "On this page" entry.

Cheers,
Carlo

What??? Oh no. Looks like another reason I need to upgrade then :) Lol. Like I 
need a "real" reason. But I'm watching my budget and being good. 
:)
Just got a new iPhone 4 for a client. Maybe he really bought it for me :) hehe. 
Wishful thinking.

Re: Anyone had any issues with OS 4.2 on your iPad ?

Hey Daniel,

Our iPhone 3Gs don't get the new text tones, & some other functions ... Apple 
are wanting people to upgrade to iPhone 4 :-(
Even the current page for iOS 4.2 doesn't note that the new text tones are 
iPhone 4 specific, though it does note that GameCenter, AirPrint, and VoiceOver 
have device restrictions. 

/Quote
"Messaging with text tones
Know who’s texting without looking at your screen. Choose from 17 new alerts 
and assign custom tones for people in your contact list.
iPhone only."
/End Quote

On the Apple iOS 4.2 page it clearly says the new text tones are "iPhone only". 
If it was only for the iPhone 4 Apple should have posted that. 

Ah well, back to serious work.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Firefox crashing

[John Daniels]

Thanks Ronni and Neil
I have tried your recommendations without success. Firefox will not start in 
safe mode although it does bring up the safe mode screen on which I can select 
restart etc without success.

Re: wkresources

Hi Michael,

Google is your friend ;o)

It seems that this is currently a ³feature² of Office 2011 ­ there is some
discussion of the issue here:

Re: Firefox crashing

[Neil Houghton]

I should have also added this link:

which explains safe mode better.




Hi John,

Check out this MozillaZine article on Firefox crashes:


Assuming you have already checked that you are running the latest Firefox
version that is compatible with your hardware/software, then if Firefox is
crashing as soon as you try and open it, start in Firefox Safe Mode
 , which disables all extensions, to
help determine if an extension is causing the problem.

There is more info and linked info contained in the article.


Cheers

wkresources

[Michael Hawkins]

I installed OS 10.6.5 last week, combo update.

On the same day, after updating Microsoft Office 2004, I installed Office
2011.

Before installing each of the updates, I backed up, repaired permissions,
restarted, repaired permissions again, installed the update, restarted,
repaired permissions again.

I went through that process first with the update to 10.6.5 and then when
installing Office 2011.

Office 2004 is still installed and will remain until I work out if Outlook
2011 will import the 3 different identities I had created in Entourage.

Now, each time I restart or startup the computer, trash contains an item
wkresources which is a 197kb unix executable file.

The computer seems to be running ok. Repairing permissions makes no
difference. Need I be concerned?

Thank you,

Michael Hawkins

Re: iOS 4.2 Update should be around soon

[Ronda Brown]

For MobileMe Users who were using MobileMe Calendar on your iPad prior to 
updating to iOS 4.2.

"Important: If you were using the new MobileMe Calendar on your iPad prior to 
updating to iOS 4.2, you should: 

• delete the CalDAV calendar you manually configured on your iPad
• set the calendar slider to "on" in your MobileMe account

This will prevent the appearence of a duplicate calendar. For step-by-step 
instructions, please see this article. "

Re: Firefox crashing

[Ronda Brown]

Hi John,

If you are sure you have installed the correct version for your Mac. Check any 
plugins you have added. To find the plugin that is causing the problem. Go to 
Tools > Add-On’s. From this list, it will show every plugin that is currently 
loaded.
To find the problem plugin, disable every single one. Also uninstall all of the 
ones you don’t need. The more plugin’s you have the slower Firefox is. Once you 
have disabled every single one restart Firefox, and start one at a time. Surf 
the web, if it survives enable the next one. So on and so forth.

Hi All

The iOS 4.2 update should be around in iTunes soon. Not yet there, but Apple
have said out later today.
So anytime soon,...


And allow time for the Apple servers to get absolutely hammered as everyone
downloads it! :o)

Enjoy!

Firefox crashing

Hi all
My Firefox started to crash yesterday when I entered a URL. It continued today 
so I uninstalled it and reloaded it from the Mozilla site. Now it opens and 
immediately crashes. Safari is working OK and iantivirus does not pick anything 
up.
Can anyone suggest where I go from here?

Check with your HTML editor that the link is correct - ie. of the  
form http://something. Sometimes web page generators make local  
links (ie. of the form c:/something) which work when you look at  
the web page on your computer but obviously are incorrect if the  
page is accessed remotely.

Hi Yvonne,

I'm not sure of your problem exactly. Check that you haven't placed  
the links in the top section of the page that iWeb reserves for the  
title.
 (If you view layout, you'll see the horizontal line).Your links  
must be below that line.

Re: iPhone 3G repair

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Mark,

You didn't answer my questions, so I don't know what iPhone you have, whether 
it is a jail broken iPhone.
If you have installed a 'pirated' or suspect app just before you started to 
experience this springboard crash and error, delete them.
Do you have any idea which icon is causing the problem? Did the crash happen 
when you clicked on one icon ... If so delete it!

To delete an iPhone app (application), just press and hold one of the iPhone 
app icons -- it doesn't matter which one -- on screen, until all the icons 
appear to get nervous and start wiggling around. When this behaviour starts, 
all of your third-party iPhone applications will show an "X" icon in the 
upper-left corner of their application icon.

Click on this link it will take you to instructions: How to delete/uninstall an 
iPhone app (iPhone application)


Cheers,
Ronni
