URL disappeared

Hello

Could you help me? I somehow dragged the address field or URL space in safari off. Is it possible to regain this so that I can cut and paste urls?

Thanks
Frances


Hi Frances

Try this:

1. Safari > Menu bar > View > Customize toolbar
2. Drag the URL field or default set back onto the toolbar

MS Outlook says "Disk Full"

Hi

I tried clearing quite a lot of emails yesterday, but after downloading about 5 new emails from MS Exchange it came up with same rejection - disc full.

I am wondering if there is any way that I could export the majority of emails into an archive file, which could be reactivated purely for search purposes in the future - it us just because there is such a lot of data which retains use for me as reference.

Actual hard disc space from the 'file - get info' looks as though I have masses of reserve space on the hard disc:

CAPACITY: 38.15 GB
AVAILABLE: 28.23 GB
USED: 9.92 GB

Is there any way of tweaking the database to increase the capacity?

All suggestions welcome.
Rod


Hi Rod

From memory, Outlook has it's own database-fix tool.

Try starting Outlook with the option key down. This should give you a dialogue box asking if you want to COMPACT the database. Click on YES.

See if that has improved the situation, else start Outlook again with the option key down. Say no to compacting the database but YES to COMPLEX REBUILD.

Hope that helps

Epson Stylus photo EX printer

hello

I wonder if there is a print driver for the Epson Stylus photoEX for my mac OS X

I also need to find a printer cable that will convert into a USB

The apple cable recommended is a Peripheral-8 cable part no M0197 . but this was back in 1998?

thank-you in anticipation
Adrian Thomas


Hi Adrian

Firstly I must warn you may be throwing away good money if you try to get your Epson Stylus Photo Ex printer to work. We had an Epson Stylus Pro XL Plus and didn't have a great rate of success as our Macs got upgraded. Support for old equipment gets less and less. It may be cheaper to upgrade the printer and assign the old one to the recycle heap.

However you can check out these websites:

• Printer Drivers - http://www.versiontracker.com/php/qs.php?mode=basic&action=search&str=printer&srchArea=macos%7Cclassic%7Cdrivers
• Mac Serial to USB - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Keyspan-Usb-Twin-Serial-Adapter/dp/B000FX61MS/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1246226552&sr=1-2

Good luck...

Hard Drive Problems

Hi,

Wondered if you could help with an in sight... I've got the first generation 13" White Macbook's but the hard drive keeps going on it, i have to replace it i'd say once every 3months... What would be the underlying issue too cause this so frequently?

Many Thanks
Zach


Hi Zacharia

One HD dying is acceptable, but three?

I presume you've exhausted all the disk tests and recovery routines as outlined by the Apple website support pages; as well as third party software tools like Drive Genius?

I reckon the logic board connection to the drive is shorting the drive controller. If you are on Applecare, insist on a logic board replacement. Else it's a DIY repair, try www.bookyard.com for spares.
