Not a good combination. I finally got around to installing my Canon LiDE 30 scanner — I know it’s cheap junk, but that’s all I need — on my iMac. Much to my surprise the driver installer didn’t see Photoshop as a place to install a plugin. So I manually installed it And then Continue reading Canon LiDE 30 Scanner with Photoshop CS3 on Intel Mac November 2nd, 2007
My 5th generation iPod turns up its nose at my new iMac; later they become friends. If you’ve been following this blog, you might remember that I recently replaced my Dual G5 Power Mac — currently available on eBay! — with a 24″ iMac. This was a big splurge for me, but one that Continue reading New iPod Woes Solved August 28th, 2007
A rough cut, for serious beta testers. WordPress 2.3 Beta I is now available for testing. From the announcement post: Some of the features of 2.3 include plugin and core update notification, built-in tags support, faster javascript, and SEO-friendly URL redirection….However all of the new functionality is still very rough, so only test the Continue reading WordPress 2.3 Beta I Now Available August 14th, 2007
“This startup disk is not supported.” I just learned that Boot Camp cannot be installed on a Mac with a partitioned hard disk. The error message I got was: I wasted close to an hour trying to troubleshoot this problem before I found the answer hidden away in the documentation. (Duh-uh.) From the Continue reading Boot Camp and Partitioned Disks July 18th, 2007
And other tricks for getting grime off your computer equipment. I just listened to an NPR Podcast called “Are Computer Keyboards Dishwasher Safe?” In it, the reporter tells of her research and hands on experience with cleaning a dirty computer keyboard in the dishwasher. She found that although keyboard manufacturers warned against cleaning a Continue reading Putting Your Keyboard in the Dishwasher May 16th, 2007
I track down an iSight problem to Firewire. When I got into a regular back up routine, backing up my hard disk to an external hard drive, I immediately began having problems with my WebCam. My WebCam uses a standalone (i.e., not built-in) iSight camera and EvoCam software. The problem usually manifest itself Continue reading iSight, G5, Firewire Problem Solved — Well, Sort of February 19th, 2007
Why I don’t Genius Bar hop and other comments regarding my recent hard disk problem. One of my jobs as a blogger is to produce at least one blog entry a week.

Another technical note from Apple Support. Over the past 18 years I’ve been using a Mac — is it that long already? — I’ve had more than one experience when my Mac just wouldn’t start. On two occasions, it was due to a hard disk gone bad — every computer user’s nightmare (are you Continue reading How to Resolve Startup Issues and Perform Disk Maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck January 2nd, 2007
A problem resolved becomes a new problem to resolve. A while back, I complained that the ping and trackback features on my site wouldn’t work. I could get trackbacks and pingbacks, but I couldn’t send them. I even wrote a TrackBack Troubleshooting post about it which has become one of the most widely read Continue reading Stop Pinging Your Own WordPress Blog! September 14th, 2006
An unexpected bonus for moving WordPress to GoDaddy.com. As I reported in several entries of my blog (“Trackback Test,” “Trackback Tutorial,” “Trackback Troubleshooting,” and “Another Trackback Test“) I was never able to get WordPress’s TrackBack and Pingback features to work correctly on my server-installed blog. I know I was using the feature correctly because Continue reading Trackback & Pingback Works! July 14th, 2006
I need to check the appearance of a site with as many browsers as possible. As I’ve mentioned here and elsewhere, I’ve been working hard to rebuild my Flying M Air Web site with WordPress. The design I ended up with closely matched my new brochures (which I just got yesterday; they look great!). Continue reading Can You Help Me? Oops! Nevermind! April 21st, 2006
My gravatar image finally appears on Gravatar-enabled sites — including this one.

This morning, I got an e-mail message saying that my gravatar had been rated and approved. Continue reading Gravatar Approved! April 20th, 2006
A plugin goes bad and causes weird side effects. I was checking e-mail and moderating comments on this blog early this morning. (I’m a morning person.) I’d just entered a comment on my blog when I got a weird error message that I didn’t really pay attention to. When I moved on to another Continue reading Troubleshooting at 6 AM |
