Happy New Year To You All!

As the end of the year ticks down on ehMacland, members are busy celebrating the upcoming year in their own special ways. Those in Newfoundland and Labrador in just over an hours time and our westerly neighbours in BC with about six hours to go.

I never was a fan of the noise and parties that seem to be the norm for so many people. I have memories of attending more of them that I would rather forget. Oh, sure there were a couple of memorable ones, but mostly there were ones that I wished I was home with my feet up, a nice glass of brandy in my hand and the company of the very special lady that has made my life complete over these past 50 years of marriage.

I wish you all a healthy and prosperous new year, (although that will be a very hard row to hoe in Alberta next year and the two following given our new socialist overlords.) ;)

I hope you all have a safe and happy celebration, whatever way you choose to ring in the new year. A special wish for those here who have become fast friends over the 15 years I have had the privilege of knowing you, both those online and in person.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

Updating Old iMac - Splitting Hairs?

My mom has a 2007, 20" iMac with 2Ghz processor and 1GB of RAM. I have the chance to get a 2008, 24" with a 2.8Ghz processor and 4GB of RAM.

If I just upgrade the RAM on the 2007 to 4GB will that suffice for a web-browsing mother? I'll be able to update it to El Capitan if it has 4GB of ram, no? Would she get that much more power for just browsing the web and using FB with a 2008 machine? That would save her some $$$ if we can just upgrade the RAM on the 2007.

Any insight would be great.

Happy new year!

FireFox Update Fail

A few days ago I noticed that FireFox had an update (v43.x) available. Held off until I had done my year end clean-up and system back-up.

Completed all that yesterday then noted that the update had been withdrawn and my old version 42 was once again up to date. A bit of an internet search revealed a ton of issues with this one, so when it does reappear I will be in no hurry to install it.

One of two reasons I always go with manual updates!

IPad mini repair (updated) - I HATE ALL THIS WHITE

Recently i took my iPad mini to a repair shop after cracking the screen, and a month of back and forth for a crappy repair job (the left side of the screen stopped working), they finally "fixed" it.But soon after the 90 day warranty expired, the left side of the screen stopped working again.

Anyhow, to make a long story short, i ended up, thru them, getting a reburbished repalcement iPad. Nice, but its running the latest non-jailbreakable iOS, 9.2. My biggest regret was losing my 9.0.2 jailbreak that allowed me to install Nightmode and Eclipse, two UI modifications that tone down this glaring white interface. And ADS. OH. MY. GOD. I had no idea adblocker stopped this many ads. YIKES!

I miss my jailbreak for these reasons alone, but mostly, i wish Apple would give us the option of switching from middle-of-the-night-retina-scorching white to a more suble gray or black. Am I alone with this?

iPhone 3s "Notes" : Recovery Apps for "Notes" Disappeared: Any Recommendations?

iPhone 3s "Notes" : Recovery Apps for "Notes" Disappeared: Any Recommendations?

Hi,

I was in the midst of typing a "Note" on my iphone 3s, iOS6.1.6,
when the "Note" suddenly disappeared!

Is there a way to recover this "Note"?

This would not have been backed up, as I was in the midst of typing it, on my iPhone 3s.


I am wondering if anyone here at ehMac, can recommend from experience of using any particular software that is trouble free and effective.

Thank you.

getting files from time machine after clean install

I did a clean install of a work iMac. It has a fresh new install of El Capitan. I normally transfer the mail settings over manually, copying the com.apple.mail.plist.lockfile and .comapple.mail.plist

I made a mistake and copied com.apple.MAPS.plist, so it obviously does nothing for getting mail setup.

Now I have a time machine backup plugged into an airport basestation. The problem is when I plug in the hard drive it directly onto the mac, it only shows me a Sparse Disk Image Bundle file. On my iMac with my TimeMachine backup plugged in (not via airport) it shows folders and I could manually go to find what i want if I wanted to.

I was planning on doing that and just pulling the correct preference file and be on my way.

Not sure what to do with this space disk image bundle file, I am transferring it over right now as it works faster then off of the drive. Do I just double click and open it?? Is there anyway I can search this to find the file I need? I tried connecting to holding down "option" as I clicked the Time Machine icon to view other backups, but it did not work.

Migration assistant via ethernet failure

I've been trying to run migration assistant on two Mac Minis. Computer 1 is running El Capitan and Computer 2 is running Snow Leopard.

I've attached an Ethernet Cable between them and disconnected Wi-Fi on both.

I have used Network Preference to manually edit the IP addresses: Computer 1 is 192.168.1.10 and Computer 2 is 192.168.1.11.

I have set Computer 2 to share files.

However, under Migration Assistant (activated on both Minis) Computer 1 and Computer 2 do not see each other.

Have I made an obvious error?

Tried installing a driver the other day and had to update my OS. When I click on "Get" on El Capitain in the app store, nothing happens. Simply no results. Please tell me there's an easy answer to this and I'm just a dumb dumb.

Kernel panic: does this warrant some worrying?

Hi all,

A few days ago (right before my holiday celebrations, of all days), my mid-2014 retina MacBook Pro had its first kernel panic. Everything restarted and the machine seems to be working okay, but I'm still worried about it, and I was hoping someone on here with more experience reading KPs could tell me about the root cause of it.

I've quoted the KP below. Also worth mentioning that, after working on something for a while all day and night, and I did a terrible thing and kept my computer asleep for a few weeks on end without shutting down or restarting. Is that enough to cause a KP?

Thanks in advance!
Erica

How to get old iOS app versions

Download Old Versions of iOS Apps with a Clever Workaround

Ever get an update to an iOS app that just completely destroyed the app and made it terrible? There’s a way to roll back to older versions if you’re willing to jump through some hoops.

The process for downgrading apps differs slightly between OS X and Windows. On a Mac, you’ll need an app called Charles, while on Windows you’ll need Fiddler.

Phone upgrades and hand-me down-ing

Games that work with iOS 4.2.1 ???

So I gave my son a hand me down an 8gb iPod Touch (Probably a second gen because it's running 4.2.1). so far after searching the app store for the past two days I haven't found one compatible game! Any Suggestions? Surely when this thing was new there were games that worked for it! Did Apple just delete them? Would be nice to be able to search the app store based on what's compatible. Thanks for any suggestions!

Cheers!

Fido Upgrades at an Apple Store

Can I upgrade my Fido phone at an Apple Store or do I have to go through Fido?

Btw, anyone who is in Fido with Fido dollars, you might want to find a way to cash them in, the local Fido store associate mentioned that she believes they will be doing away with the program sometime in 2016.

Ditched iPhone 4S

So it was time to upgrade my phone iPhone 4S, which as worked well for me from the day it first came out.
I decided NOT to go with apple again. I got (hasn't come in yet) the new NEXUS 6P.
The price was right $0. After reading all specs it and what I do with it I found that it was worth going this way instead of getting the 6. The 6s wasn't an option...can't justify the price for the upgrade.
I was looking at all the apps I use on my 4S and they're all available on the 6P.
I am an apple guy, so this switch has surprised a lot of my friends, even my kid asked why....LOL.

Java Troubles

I tried to remove Java from my machine (10.11.2). I thought I got everything, I found some instructions to help remove Java by using the Terminal. I entered the command and thought everything was good.

Now I get these annoying popups "To use the "java" command-line tool you need to install a JDK."

I've tried re installing Java and then uninstalling to no avail. Any suggestions to getting rid of it once and for all?

DVD burning problems in Yosemite

OK, I understand many ehMac members do not use their Superdrive, but I do - a lot!

I’m transitioning to Yosemite 10.10.5 & until now most problems were not fatal. However, after installing the latest Security update I’m unable to burn DVDs with Toast Titanium. (Writing starts, but fails shortly before completion )

I initially thought my Superdrive had failed, but in researching the problem I found a few references to disc burning failing under Yosemite.

I switched back to 10.6.8 and succeeded in burning the same file/video to DVD.

I’m now trying to determine where the fault lies.

Have any members experienced DVD burning problems under Yosemite?

Transfer Files From Old User To New User

With what started with the latest El Capitan upgrade about ten days ago that went horribly wrong, I’m now plagued with the dreaded Finder (Application Not Responding) problem.

Safe boots, doing fsck -fy, removal of the finder plist, using disk utility (no problems), OnyX, dozens of times, which was for nought. Even tried the latest Disk Warrior and the latest TechTool Pro. They didn’t find any problems. I’ve also started up in Disk Recovery and used it’s Disk Utility. No problems found.

No problems were found on the external hard drives.

The latest EtreCheck found no problems.

I’ve done my best to turn Spotlight indexing.

I tried two new user accounts and the guest account, wasn’t impressed with the results, so I trashed the two new accounts and turned off the guest account.

I did use the sharing folder.

One problem I had with these accounts, was that I didn’t know how and what files to transfer from the old account to the new account.

What is the best way to transfer info from an existing users account to a new users account?

I’ve performed numerous searches, and have about ten answers so far.

The latest decent Time Machine backup (before the failed OS upgrade) was mistakenly botched by me.

I ended up reinstalling the latest OS by going recovery route, just after the failed upgrade. I don’t wish to do that again unless I really have to. Before going the Recovery route, I did copy the users folder to an external hard drive. It is actually more recent than the Time Machine copy was, because Time Machine had quit doing hourly backups. The latest backup was about a week old.

A footnote, Mail, Safari, and Text Edit, still work without hangups. Finder in the Dock presently shows Application Not Responding in grey, not black. But not listed as having a problem in either Force Quit Applications (showing) or Activity Monitor - All Processes (not showing).

So, I’m now ready to attempt again to add a new user, and successfully transfer the files from the old account, to the new account.

But this time I’d like to know before hand what files I should and shouldn’t transfer.

HomeKit - Failing Remote Access

Okay, so I've installed some Lutron Caseta wireless switches and then have the associated hub so I can control the switches via my iPhone and Siri. I also rigged up my best thermostat to work with Siri. It works well at home, however remote access does not work (i.e. Outside of the house on 3G/LTE)

Going by the old method of needing an AppleTV signed into iCloud, I have done that and it worked once for 10 minutes. Otherwise it doesn't work and trying to set it up and troubleshoot is frustrating.

Has anybody set up anything that supports HomeKit? And does it work outside of your network at all?

Move to new iMac and OS

HI all,

Been a while, but I should report that I got rid of my 2.4 GHZ iMac and moved up to an i5 that's running El Capitan. I've been with Snow Leopard forever and this is my first "new" Mac that has the current OS installed.

I'm impressed thus far with the machine and the new OS, but felt I had to upgrade to 12 Gig of RAM just to run the OS more smoothly. Wow, this OS is a memory hog!

Anyone noticed how SLOW the boot time is though? Any fixes?

Need some iTunes help Here!

Set-Up: Mid 2010 27” iMac, 2.93 GHz Intel Core i7, 2Tb, 12 GB Ram
Migrated from OSX10.6.8 to Yosemite 10.10.5
iTunes 12.3.1.23, iTunes media files & library is on an external G Tech 4 Tb HD
Media files 99% video = approx 1.56 Tb

Problem: Over the last 6-8 weeks, iTunes has become erratic.
Normally I open/start iTunes and it will run just fine serves Apple TV via ethernet

However iTunes has started to “break” - when I start iTunes it will frequently report “iTunes Library 2015-0x-xx” is not a valid library, and will mark it damaged and start a new empty library file - loosing the link to all my media. I’ve had enough practice, I can now re-link the media quickly, but it has become very annoying.

So now, before i re-link all the files again, I want to check all the options and make sure I have everything organized as it should be.

A) I see there is an update available for iTunes 12.3.2 - anyone with experience with this?

B) I’m wondering if I should ditch Yosemite & move on to El Capitan.
I hesitate because I have mostly older versions of various apps ie CS3
(BTW Everything ran perfectly under 10.6.8 - I still have it, maybe I should move back?)

I’m wondering if the iTunes library files should be on the boot drive?
When iTunes creates a new library database, it puts it on the external HD along with the Media files, but not always in exactly the same place, ie. it is now located - External Drive/iTunes Two/Reserved iTunes Files/iTunes Library 2015-12-18
it was located at . External Drive/iTunes Two/Previous iTunes Libraries/iTunes Library 2015-11-11.
Is there a preferred organized layout?

My fall back may be to set up my old G4 running Snow Leopard to handle iTunes, and just leave it running constantly - have to buy another new UPS
FYI - I generally shut down each night due to less than solid electrical power and sometimes erratic internat. Previously I’ve lost some equipment to power surges & lightning.

Anyway, I’d like to hear your suggestions/recommendations

Opening Multiple Images video issue

Just noticed something when selecting around 8 images ranging in size between 2-3 MB and choosing Open With in Pixelmator (not sure if this is app related or not). Half way through opening the batch, the rest will be just dark images. When starting to close some, the next one may be checkerboard but no image showing. This is on my brand new (refurbished) early 2015 MBP 13 inch. Should I be concerned with this as it might be a video card issue?

Note: Just tried opening 15 in GraphicConverter and had no such issue at all. Must be app related?

Reclaiming a partition: small issue

It what is almost a double entendre, I do have a small issue.

Amidst all the OSX update that were taking place, and seemingly overnight, I had created some small partitions (30G) to give the OS's a quick run just in case to feel them out (I do this @ work).

had a main 10.9, with another 10.9 which were my 2 main ones (one is for everyday, and the other is for tinkering w/ music)

then I had two smaller ones of 10.10 and 10.11 to test out.

I went to delete the 10.10, and reclaim it. After deleting it, I dragged the window (in disk utility) and hit apply, got that animated bar, and nothing else. The 30G remains unclaimed.

Any quick insights before I escalate this? ;)

Thanks - and cheers.

Resizing Images

Been doing some trial runs with 2 different apps in resizing images- Pixelmator and Affinity Photo.
Taking a 6 MB image, when resizing it to 99% with no resampling, the image shrinks to 3.2 MB. When doing the same thing in Affinity Photo, it increases to 7.4 MB. I would think that these 2 apps probably use different alogorythms. But, if having to choose between the 2 apps, I would tend to go with Pixelmator due to the smaller file size.

El Capitan > Disk Utility > Security Options ??

You might want to keep your USP Yosemite installer available.... It is the last version with several well used features.

There are several familiar functions no longer in the El Capitan version.

As discussed here in Apple Support Communities Disk utility in El Capitan installer does not have security option. You can no longer write zeros to perform a "nuke 'n' pave" at least in El Cap. I simply boot up it the Yosemite version to erase and write zeros. Apparently this is because there has been bad interactions betweeen the security features and certain SSD drives.

You can no longer repair permissions (IMHO it never did anything worthwhile anyway). The new SIP system renders it redundant. See Hands-on with Disk Utility in El Capitan: Tool for storage devices gets a facelift | Macworld. Once again if you save your Yosemite installer there is always the Yosemite Disk Utility with all the usual features in the usual places.

So resist the urge to overwrite your Yosemite installer with the latest El Cap......

You might just be glad you did!! :)

iPad mini 2 repair. Any suggestions? I cannot take it to Apple.

In August of this year, I dropped my iPad mini 2, which WAS in a case, but had no protective screen. Sure enough, it fell screen first and hit a rock and the screen cracked.

Since my iPad was out of warranty, I decided that I didn't want to spend almost $300 for Apple's out-of-warranty repair, so I took it to a repair shop (BuynCell) instead. What a mistake that was.

After a whole month of back and forth repairs (the screen replacement was supposed to take 2 hours, but ended up taking 3 weeks instead because somehow they screwed up the connections and only half the screen would respond), the screen was finally "fixed" with a 90 day warranty.

EXACTLY 30 days after the warranty was up, the left side stopped responding again. I talked to the owner and he claimed that he would do the repairs again at a discount, but I am hesitant to take it back there.

Can anyone recommend a reliable and profession iDevice repair shop in the GTA? I definitely cannot take it to Apple now, so I need to find the next best thing.

external hard drive keeps ejecting

So I updated to El Capitan last week. Love the speed of the OS, and everything is working as it should with my apps and such. I am having an issue with my external hard drive. It is a 4 bay Vantec USB3 enclosure, using only 1 bay at the moment. It has a 2TB drive in there that has been in there about 2 years now. Since the update to El Capitan the drive randomly ejects, does not seem to be anything specific happening that I can pinpoint. Sometimes happens when the iMac goes into screen saver mode, or happens when using safari, or not doing anything at all.

Anyone else experience this? Not sure what I can even check here to find a solution for this other then buying a new external hard drive and plugging it in.

Dropbox Kills Mailbox, an App It Bought for $100M

AS IT REFOCUSES on business customers, Dropbox said today that it’s shutting down two of its once-marquee consumer-oriented apps: the photo gallery app Carousel and email client Mailbox.

The good news is that your Carousel photos aren’t going anywhere—they’ll still be stored in your Dropbox, where they’ve always been. Dropbox is even working to integrate some of Carousel’s functionality into the core Dropbox app interface. Mailbox users, however, will have to find a new email app by February 26, 2016, when the service that the Mailbox apps depend on will shut down.

Moving Mail folders to Gmail

I think I'm committed to moving entirely to IMAP which means I need to copy over all my Mail local Folders and Sub Folders over to Gmail. I started with a few and it seems as though I have to first create the folder (Label?) in Gmail first and then drag over all the messages. Seems like Mail is really choking up when copying over messages. I can see this is going to take some time as it seems to be slow in copying over.

why do I need to type in my passcode every 48 hours??

I have an iPhone 6 plus running latest iOS update. I do not remember seeing this in the past with my 5S, but every 48 hours I get prompted to enter my passcode, it will not accept my fingerprint. I find this to be a bit confusing when they say how secure the fingerprint ID is but for a few things like security settings a finger print will not do, you need to enter the code. Same thing goes when restarting, need to enter the passcode again before finger print will work and same with App store/iTunes store, need to type in the password.

Why is this?? It is not a big deal of course, just makes no sense to me.

Window shifts position when scrolling

On our iMac running OSX 10.9.5 Mavericks the window for our browser is set at the maximum vertical size, extending from the top to the bottom of the screen. This shows the maximum amount of a long document or article in the screen and is fine as long as the window stays in the same position. The problem is it does not.

All too often when scrolling down to view the continuation of long documents and articles we find that the browser window suddenly starts moving down. The cursor is positioned over the scroll bar slider on the right of the window, the slider darkens, we start dragging the slider down, scrolling starts and then of its own accord the scrolling stops and the window starts sliding down the screen with the cursor.

Unlike with earlier versions of OSX we do not have the option of placing the cursor on scroll arrows at the bottom of the scroll bar. The only way to scroll down on a long document or article is to place the cursor on the scroll slider and drag the slider down.

We do not want the browser window to reposition or resize unless we make a deliberate action to change it. We particularly do not want this happening when we are trying to scroll down on a long article.

How may I lock the browser window in place on the screen to eliminate these unwanted window repositions when we scroll down?

Apple 24" display problems (mini display port)

I have an Apple 24" display (the mini display port) that I use as a second screen with my 2009 iMac 27"... for about a month at times the screen would fade as though the brightness was turned way down. Unplugging it and plugging it back in would restore the picture for a day or two until it would happen again. The other day the picture finally died completely. The USB ports on the back still work and power my external usb drives; and a screen shot still shows that the iMac is recognizing that there's a second screen still attached.

My question is.... is this likely a logic board problem? Or could it be the LCD panel? I love this monitor - great quality - I don't really want to get rid of it. If I could determine the problem and buy the part used, I'd go that route. Anyone have any suggestions for what it could be or how I would determine this?

The Most Annoying Television Commercials

Some of today's TV commercials are just so annoying that they have the opposite effect on me in that I would never buy or use the product they supposedly promote. Some of them so utterly phony they defy logic.

You must all have your own pet peeves and please feel free to vent here.

I will begin with just one of mine and that is the guy who either stands in his flooded kitchen, or on a street at night with a sign fallen on his car and conveniently has a tripod with a stop watch on it to see how long it takes for his insurance company to start a claim. Seriously? They want me to believe this crap? I would never buy a policy from these people.

New MBP out-of-box

I know that a new MBP comes with the latest OSX installed, along with every printer driver out there. I'm tempted to do my own OSX 10.11 install with the flash drive I created. Or is that a waste of time and should I assume the "factory" install is good enough. Does a clean install of 10.11 still give the option of skipping printers? With a 1 TB SSD, I was also wondering if anyone ever creates more than one partition on the new SSDs.

Thunderbolt, Firewire, USB

Since purchasing a 2015 MacBook Pro 13", I'm thinking ahead of what to do with my 3 FW800/USB/Sata enclosures. I did order the Thunderbolt to FW800 adapter, but, I'm not sure how it will work out with all my enclosures. Will they still be bus-driven? What are some of the better Thunderbolt enclosures out there? Will Apple be leaving Thunderbolt or will there be an integration such as suggested here?

Time to move on from my mid-2010 MBP. I'm not interested in the 15". I like the 13". I know that there are new MBP in the near future but they'll be premium price.

Is there any Black Friday options that Apple Canada usually puts out? I want to purchase through an Apple Gift Card which, through the airmileshops, I can presently get 10X Air Miles.

Do you Like/Dislike the "back" options in Yosemite

I'm relatively new to Yosemite,(10.10.5 - up from 10.6.8), and I'm still uncovering few new "features" which I'm not that thrilled with.

When surfing around to various sites [using Safari] I'm used to clicking on the "Back" button on the upper left menus bar. - worked fine for me.

Now I've discovered that the new (almost invisible) < > is not always there/active. After some considerable time searching, I discovered the tiny (equally invisible) X in the tab above. So now, in the new improved design I have to determine whether to click < or locate the proper tab and click the X.

If Apple wants to close a tab using a hidden button, fine, but why remove the feature form the menu bar? I find it annoying, especially when the text in the table just numbers & does not clearly define which page it links to, and to top it off the text is very small, and hard for my tired old eyes to read.

Anyway, thats my rant for the day,

Anyone happy withe the change?

Advice Please

This is probably an odd request but hopefully I can get some guidance.
I am retired and on a tight budget, my iMac is a 2008 and my MacBook Pro is a 2007.
Both are getting very slow and need to be upgraded to Yosemite, as a minimum, to keep pace with changes to iOS on my iPad.
I have decided that I will stop using the iMac and make the MBP do everything, I have a 22" DVI monitor.
Can I upgrade that to Yosemite (El Capitan) safely?
What could be the down side of such an action?
Should I consider one of the newer use MBP in Classified and what should be the oldest I should consider?
I cannot justify the cost of a new one on my budget.
Any suggestions and/or advice would be great appreciate.

VW Diesel and emissions scandal

Blatant fraud choking us out. Wherever I travel I see more VW's broken down on the side of the road than any other vehicle. In North America, the Dodge Caravan gets an honourable mention though.

Very unhappy with VW for the diesel fraud, seems they also deliberately put cheat devices into high performance VW, Audi and Porsche vehicles too. Subaru makes a boxer diesel that they will not bring into North America because the performance an mileage would be terrible to meet emission standards. So VW cheated.

Long ago when I was a broke hippy dippy young dude travelling around in my VW Bus, had an electrical problem and a little hole in the exhaust. Well, in the far north could not fix it myself, and no mechanic wanted to touch it. So I sputtered into the local VW dealer asking them to patch it up so I could get home.

They refused to touch it unless I bought a brand new VW muffler for $500. They refused to bring in the aftermarket one for $200, or fix the electric problem until I had this fixed. This was big bucks back then, so I was really pissed off that they would not give me a break, and prefer to leave me stranded.

After I got the Kraut Can home, I sent a letter to the dealer and VW Canada about my displeasure. The response I got basically said screw you. I haven't owned a VW product since. the people I know that have them, all seem to be plagued with a lot of expensive repairs and break downs regardless of the model. There seem to be a few stories out there about people having bad experiences with the dealers as well.

If you care about the environment, your budget (the VW repair costs kill any advantages that the fuel economy gives you), corporate integrity, don't get a VW.

Fastest configuration for external SSD to drive old iMac?

Hello

I'm buying a fast SSD with firewire 800 enclosure to speed up my 2009 iMac. Said Mac cannot be upgraded to a fusion drive and installing an internal SSD is a pain - so a FW800 it is. May not be as fast as a SATA connection but I think it's the latency on the HD that is the problem...

The next question is what should I put on my SSD. Here are my choices:

- OSX
- General library
- Apps & utilities
- My user library
- Other user libraries

Then I can leave this on the old HD:

- My music and my photos
- Same for other users
- Local data folder, including large mail file
- Local copy of my synched Dropbox

Does this make sense? Do the libraries have to be on the same drive as the OS? Would I get better speed/reliability with a different configuration? Can I daisy chain the OS disk with my photo backup disk (also FW800)?

Finally, do I just drag/copy or start from a clean install of 10.11 on the SSD and use migration assistant?

Thanks!

PS: the original HD is 1TB, the new SSD is 0.5TB. Everything is backup up to a networked time capsule.

travelling with iPhone and no roaming package

So it seems, from my experience, that you can travel, have roaming and cellular turned off in the settings and still have roaming charges. You'd think that if roaming is turned off, (which says that connection will be restricted to wifi), you're in the clear. No roaming charges. Airplane mode ALSO has to be turned off.

Wanted To Buy Display Data Cable For 2011 iMac 21.5"

I've had to open up my imac a few times for cleaning, removing defective Superdrive and installing an SSD. In the process, the data cable that goes from the logic board (part # 593-1350 B) to the display got damaged.
I managed to re-bend the micro contact pins on the connector-end of the cable and it's working ok now but need to replace it I believe.
Anyhow, I've seen them on Amazon but shipping is ($4.02 in the US, $29.99 to Canada) more than the actual cost of the cable.
From eBay it's an unknown brand name from China, so not sure if the quality would be the same as an original OEM. Local Apple service centre says he can't sell new OEM parts to me and doesn't have a used one to spare.
Anyone have an old broken iMac with a good cable they would sell?

Anybody put a SSD in a 2009 MBP?

As I've still got the original 160GB drive in my mid 2009 MBP, I think its due for an upgrade. Is it worth putting a 250GB SSD in this thing? Know, Ive seen the youtube vids showing how fast it will start up, but I rarely reboot the machine anyway. I assume that it would be a little bit snappier, but I've also read plenty of people complaining that after an initial speedy period, their SSDs eventually slowed down. And is it worth having to worry about such things as Trim Control? The mid 2009 is only SATA 2 as well, so max speed is 3GB.

Anybody done it?

I've got a Mid 2009 Macbook Pro and the battery is finally giving up on me.

Over the years I've upgraded the RAM and installed a SSD and this machine is still going strong so have no need to replace it at this point.

There are many sellers on eBay selling batteries for approximately $50. Some even go to the trouble of saying that they are not fakes or reproductions. I'm not sure I actually believe this though.

I don't mind paying more for a battery if it is actually better, but don't want to get ripped off either.

Paris Attacks (13 Nov 2015)

At Least 18 Dead in Multiple Violent Incidents in Paris

At least 18 people were killed in an outbreak of explosions and at least one shootout in Paris Friday, according to police. It was unclear if the events were linked.

Police in Paris told NBC News that several people had been shot at a restaurant in the 10th arrondissement in Paris, and The Associated Press reported that there were fatalities at the Bataclan theater, where hostages were being held.

The AP reported that two explosions were heard outside of the Stade de France north of Paris. France's football team was playing Germany's at the Stade de France at the time of the explosion.
