How can you search list Archives?

2013-09-15 Thread David Griffith
Just wondered if anybody has a pointer on how to search list archives? Visiting http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/mac-access/index.html I can find no edit boxes to enter search text and looking for the keyword search on the page yields no results. I am probably missing something but I am sure

Fusion and Audio

iPhone App stuck waiting

Hello, I am running the latest level of IOS on an iPhone 3GS. When I started my pedometer app today it did nothing. The iPhone home screen says that the app is waiting. It has stayed waiting for several hours. It is still waiting after turning the iPhone off and on again. It does not appear in

Hi Paul, Try double tapping it again. The only time I’ve ever seen a waiting state like that is when the app is being updated. Otherwise I’m quite puzzled I’m afraid. Best, Zack. On Sep 15, 2013, at 5:33 AM, Paul Hopewell wrote: > Hello, > I am running the latest level of IOS on an iPhone 3GS.

Re: Decimals in spreadsheets

Hello Andy, Sorry I've taken so long to reply to this message. In the Cell inspector, there's a pop up menu labeled Cell Format. If you press VO-Space on this you can choose Number. This then gives you the chance to specify the number of decimal places. I hope this helps. Cheers, Anne On 1

You might have to reinstall it. I had to reinstall audio boo after it some how got stuck and was working fine a few minutes ago. If the game is linked with game center you will not loose your scores and stuff, or at least you shouldn't. Take care. On Sep 15, 2013, at 7:24 AM, Andy Collins wrote

Thanks In the end I increased allocation of the to core processors on fusion to 4 out of the a8 available on my iMac. this has seemed to resolved matters for the moment. I did not intend to allocate so much of the Mac resources to Fusion but it should not matter provided I close Fusion after u

Hi Zack, I tried double tapping again but that did not work. However your hunch about the app updating may be correct. While it was wating I took my iPhone for a walk and on my return plugged it into the sync cable. After a few minutes the wating state went away. I thus wonder whether the app m

Sara everything you have after a - is a parameter. So I am confused by your question. I had no problem with this on my lion system. Perhaps you should verify the parameters to use with the "man say" command. Jonathan Best wishes, Jonathan On Sep 15, 2013, at 3:59 PM, Sarah k Alawami wrote:

Yeah I got it. I think I actually entered it in the wrong order. That was an odd error as it was not really specific it just said prm as the error but not what it was. I just love when it throws errors like that. lol. not. But yeah I did get ti to work after all. Tc On Sep 15, 2013, at 3:28 PM
