I did some searching in the thread for this issue, but since it is such a small sample group with this issue I haven't found much here or in the Apple Support Discussion. The issue deals with iChat 6.0.1 (on 10.7.2) being able to video chat with PC AIM users (~version 7 - 7.5). iChat to iChat works AIM PC to AIM PC works But trying to do iChat to AIM PC or AIM PC to iChat the video call on the iChat side just says the person has declined the invite and on the AIM PC side it just says the invite timed out. This was on a client's site but has been reproduced on other systems in my office. I have: - Turned SSL off on the Mac - Opened the firewall on both machines - Turned off "Allow AOL to relay video chats" Nothing I have done changes this. Same exact results. Has anyone else run into this?

fleshweasel posted:Honest to gently caress, I'd love to understand what it is about ECC RAM and Xeons that makes people stick to their 5-years-discontinued Mac Pros. I completely fail to understand why you wouldn't get whatever cash for it you can right now and use it toward a new iMac. Most of the time those people have very specific needs and a certain version of a program that may not or cannot update based on some reason or hardware. Once you have the super expensive cards and software and it Just loving Works (tm) you don't really want to do anything to change that unless you shell out for the specific program update and needs OSX 10.X Snow Gopher. And reselling a Mac Pro is not like reselling an MBP. Very small market and most will just buy new when they have the cash.

fleshweasel posted:which pretty well contradicts concerns about support for new OSes. Not unless an update to the program with a new wizbang thing is only supported by the latest and greatest OS which happens pretty frequently, unless you are talking Adobe. And you don't want to invest in a brand new machine by that time, which could be years later.

A FUCKTON OF WEED posted:Holy poo poo VISE X still exists? Well at least is still used. I remember some printer drivers which would work in 10.7 if you took the extracted file and used that as the driver. But the installer was still PPC code so it wouldn't open. WTF Samsung.

Binary Badger posted:From the who the eff cares department: I just love that a 5 year old program is their crowning achievement. And minus essentials, it is their only foray into the greater Mac omniverse. Although now they also own Mint, so they got them at both ends. Edit: Binary Badger, where did your avatar go?

Venkmanologist posted:I'm wanting to install an 80GB SSD in my 2011 mac mini. Instead of starting from scratch with a new OS install, I'd like to clone the existing system drive to the SSD. The original system drive is 500GB. Every time I have done that the drive ends up being really slow / boot slow because of how the drives handle blocks I think. Then I would do it from scratch and it would be awesome. Those have been my experiences with Intel and Crucial SSDs.

Which version of 10.7 are you running? I ran into that but it was fixed by 10.7.3

flavor posted:Ever heard of priorities? I would think that probably 2% of Mac users, if that, use two or more displays on a regular basis. And when they do, chances are that at least one of the two or more displays is not 1280x800 or something similar where full screen versus maximized really makes a major difference. The problem doesn't exist if you just run maximized. Seriously, just install the tool that enables the windows 7 snap to full screen and you're done.

Blackdawgg posted:I just purchased a late 2008 Macbook for a pretty good price. It has a C2D 2.4, 2GB and the 9400M. Right now it's running 10.5.8 boooo which means I can't really install anything since I have no app store. I ordered Snow Leopard from Apple. Wish I could just download and stick it on a thumb drive. Nope, especially since July you can get Mountain Lion for $20 coming from SL. If you realllly need it then yes, but otherwise heck no.

I have found a similar question asked over a year ago on the Apple StackExchage site but it is slightly different. Gray file in finder. Also found this before the stack exchange question from the Penn State MacAdmins. While they did find out what was occurring:Problem Sum Up posted:Some files on an SMB share that is using DFS will have it's creation date changed to something very old (1940's) and because of the creation date, Finder will gray the files out and will not allow the files to be opened. This is not an issue on Windows machines as they don't care about the file creation date in the same way. I am trying to figure out the why, as I have a 2 Server 2008 R2 setup using DFS and on one server (we will name server 1), but not the other, we have a user finding certain files and folders that he works on having the same issues of grayed out items with the creation date in the 1940's. When he connects to Server 2 none of these issues crop up, but on Server 1 the issue reoccurs with some regularity. If I change the creation date using a tool to something more current, the file is immediately un-grayed and accessible. Server 1 is in the same building as the user. A small number (2-3) of mac users connect to server 1 Server 2 is over a MPLS VPN connection, hence the reason for DFS. A large (10-15) connect to server 2 I cannot find any DFS logs that note the files being updated: This is because DFS doesn't update a file based on date metadata The user is using 10.6.8 Snow Leopard. Other users are a mix of 10.6.8 and 10.7.4 Let me know if I need to take this to the windows guys. Thanks.

Frozen-Solid posted:I finally got around to installing OS X Lion on my Mac Mini. Unfortunately it's got a pretty deal breaking problems: I can no longer VNC into it. I've tried both Remote Management and Screen Sharing, and neither will work. I've tried several VNC clients for Windows and nothing works. Pretty much. If you use Screen Sharing it works fine. I have found that when we try to connect with our VNC implementation the same issue occurs.

So after updating my rMBP and installing the update to the SMC, this thing is singing. Sleep resume is amazing. Airplay was working great streaming from the network to my Apple TV. Doing well I would say.

necrobobsledder posted:I'm trying to figure out wtf I need to give Apple for them to give me my stupid code for my rMBP I ordered online. First time I took a picture of the label on the box (horizontally flipped given I took it with the webcam) and they responded with: "Receipt was not provided" What country are you in? I'm in USA and all I had to do for my rMBP was give the purchase date (June 11) and the serial number.

scottus posted:I was pretty excited for Airplay Mirroring to the Apple TV in the living room, but my Apple TV isn't showing up as a detected device. Do I have to have a certain minimum generation of ATV? If you have the black puck ATV check for an update, mine needed one before it started to show up in AirPlay Mirroring.

unruly posted:Yeah, I know sync is hard. It's hard regardless of what you're doing. I have a little experience with DFS, but I'm not sure if I need to be domain joined to access that information, or if it's published like any other SMB service. Sorry if I was crpytic. It mounts like any other SMB share no problem. I meant to finish that statement as "And Microsoft hosed it up", but that is a whole other discussion completely different from this one. You should just need your domain credentials to be an authenticated user and go to down. However, you may need to use the IP and not the UNC path (\DFS_SERVER\files) because if they did or didn't do a .local for the domain, hostname look up gets weird with a non-domained join mac. ptier fucked around with this message at 14:10 on Aug 19, 2012 |
