Saturday 20th December

NOTE: If your battery has more than 300 “Cycle count” then Apple consider it to be worn out and if it dies then sorry but batteries don’t last forever. However if the cycle count is less than 300 Apple will replace a faulty battery EVEN IF IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY! - I took back my daughter’s Macbooks yesterday and they replaced one of the dead batteries even though it was 15 months old as it had a cycle count of 213. The other had 333 so they couldn't swap it.

Checking the cycle count

APPLE >> About This Mac >> More Info… >> Power

Then look under "Battery Information"

Health Information > Cycle count and condition

Hi Darren

Just to say thanks for all your tips - which I look through now and then just out of interest.

I found your tip 37 which interested me. A few months ago my MacBook Pro's (3.1) battery was only lasting about 5-10 mins even though it was showing 90% charged. I lived with it for a while but recently the screen died on me so this forced me to return it to John Lewis where I purchased it about 18 months ago as thankfully they offered a 2 year guarantee. They replaced the logic board but the battery they say in there t&c is not covered.

I popped in to the local Apple store to see what they could do but the "Genius Bar Kid" said he could not give me a new one. I ended up spending £97 on a new one which I could ill afford to do.

I see from above that you say if a battery has less than a 300 cycle count they will replace the battery even out of guarantee. I didn't throw the old battery away, so after reading your tip, I put the old battery back in and discovered that it has a cycle count of 59. Can you offer any advice as to what I should do please? Your advice would be most welcome.

Geoff

Go into the store and complain. Explain how little time it lasted. If they do not replace it then contact Apple directly. The 300 count is a well documented number.

 

[geoffd70]

Thanks Darren, I will.

Tip 356 - MacOS[169] - Show path side bar.

It is often useful to see where in the file hierarchy you are whilst using Finder and this is easy to accomplish by switching on the option within Finder.

With Finder selected click VIEW and then "Show path side bar".

Now you will see the path bar at the bottom of your Finder window.

 

[cowasaki]

Thursday 5th November
Tip 357 - MacOS[170] - Mail Signature.

With Mail running go to Mail :: Preferences…

and select the tab SIGNATURES

Now click on EITHER "All Signatures" or one specific account in the left hand pane. If you select a particular account then the new signature will be used for that account only.

Now click on the [+] below the middle box and this will create a new signature which you can rename. In this case I will call the signature "Demo".

Mail will default to creating a signature with your full name followed by your email address.

There are a few options at the bottom of the screen such as the ability to place this signature above your quoted text and if you have multiple signatures the ability to switch between them in order or randomly.

To use the signature select a new outgoing message and over at the right above the message text will be a drop down menu where you can select which signature you want. Remember the "All signatures" or specific accounts but from above!

 

[cowasaki]

Friday 6th November
Tip 358 - MacOS[171] - Moving Mail Signatures to other computers.

If you use several computers and also if you want to backup your signatures you can open the folder:

[user] :: Library :: Mail :: Signatures

Inside this directory should be a file called SignaturesByAccount.plist which is a data file containing all the information about your signatures. Also there should be a file for each signature with a long name something like:

F4995905-19AB-4A43-B902-38933B4A4827.webarchive

This is the actual signature.

Now to transfer your signatures you can simply copy all the files to your new computer.

To copy individual ones you will need to work out which signature file is which. One way is to go into mail and change the signature by adding a space then look at the date modified column in finder then removing the space again. To transfer this signature you must create a signature in Mail on the new computer then copy over your original signature, delete the new signature after writing down its EXACT filename then rename the original signature with the new signature's name.

 

[cowasaki]

Saturday 7th November
Tip 359 - MacOS[172] - HTML Mail Signatures.

Refer to the previous tips on how to create a mail signature and their locations (TIP 357 & TIP 358).

Before you start this tip you must have created one signature in MAIL (or identified the one you want to change). Then CLOSE Mail

First we need to identify which of the weblog files is the signature we actually want to edit (see TIP 358)

Now create your signature file in your favourite html editor or text editor.

ADDED: If you are not familiar with HTML don't worry as Word will "Save As" a html file so you can basically design your signature using WORD and then save it ready to follow the rest of the tip.

As an example, using HTML, we will create this (all it is is my name with a picture underneath which when clicked goes to my website):


<p>Cowasaki</p>
<p><a href="http://www.upgradeyourmac.co.uk"><img src="http://www.upgradeyourmac.co.uk/toptips/LB_Demo.jpg" width="80" height="80">


Now we need to turn this file into the type of file used by MAIL which is called a webarchive file.

Save your html file as a normal html file with whatever name you like. I will save mine as signature.html on my desktop.

Now open this file with SAFARI (i.e. double click it unless you have another browser as default in which case run safari and open the file)

You should now see your new signature open in SAFARI.

Click FILE :: SAVE AS and save your signature back to the desktop using the format "Web Archive". So you should now have two files on your desktop one called signature.html and one called signature.webarchive

Right now open up the folder where your signatures are saved (as described in the previous tip).

You should see two files one called SignaturesByAccount.plist and the other with a name like:

F4995905-19AB-4A43-B902-38933B4A4827.webarchive

THIS is the file that you need to replace, click the file in the folder. Pause. Click it again. Now the name of the file should be highlighted (not the ".webarchive" part) copy this by holding down the [CMD] button and pressing [C].

Now we have the name of the file on the clipboard delete the file.

Now drag and drop the file Signature.webarchive into this folder and click on it then pause and click again so that the name is highlighter again. Now hold down [CMD] and press [V] which should copy the really long name over the name signature.

Click elsewhere.

Right now we should have two files again, this time the file with the long name should be OUR signature.

You can now open Mail (If you forgot to close it then close it now and re-open it or it will not work).

This is my signature for my forums email address:

This is straight HTML you can copy it into a text document and edit it for your own needs

Amazing, you're at 359 ... only 6 more to complete the 365!

Do you, by any chance have any knowledge on syncing a BlackBerry with a Mac?

Helen has a blackberry. What is the problem with it? I finished writing tip 365 last night I posted the 3 mail tips ahead of schedule because someone was asking about doing just that in another thread.

 

[cowasaki]

I have made a slight change to the last tip adding a mini tip inside it. Word will save as an HTML file so you do not need to understand anything to do with HTML to make your own signatures.

Hi Darren...

First of all may I, on behalf of anyone who has found this thread as useful as me during the course of the last year or so... ... very much for putting so much time and effort into keeping this thread going and providing endless Tips for us mere Mac users... ... I, for one have found the tips extremely useful and enlightening and have discovered things I never knew many times over...

Now I hope you don't mind a question or two directly in your Tadfay thread... :shrug:

MAIL

1. I have created a number of Signatures in Mail across a number of Mail accounts and they are saved and, mostly, work fine for most of the time. I subscribe to MobileMe and the same signatures are synchronised across three, home networked, computers and again, mostly, this works fine.

However, sometimes a set of signatures, for a single Mail account, will disappear from one or other of the computers without any rhyme nor reason ! The other Mail account Signatures will still be there and useable and all sets will still be there and useable on the other computers - any idea why this should happen :shrug:

2. Occasionally, and it is happening frequently now, Mail will pop up the Password box and ask for the sign in details for all Mail accounts ! Even if I tick the save to Keychain box it will happen repeatedly throughout the day - again any idea why this should happen...

Any ideas/suggestions will be gratefully received...

Ven...

Thanks,

Glad to be of service

I may well now just pick a tutorial to do as and when I have an idea and add that so for example all the mail signature tips would be connected together and done as a super tip type thing.....

Problem 1 - Hmmm, not sure about that one because it is intermittent and I've not seen it happen before.

Problem 2 - This happens with POP accounts regularly because only one device can login to a POP account. So if your phone is accessing the account (or another computer) then the computer you are on will fail to authenticate the password and come up with the error that the password is wrong. The best solution is to switch ALL your accounts to using the IMAP protocol. If this is not possible then just cancel the password box when it appears and it will connect next time or some time later.

Thanks for the quick response Darren...

Just to clarify the first issue - the Signatures do not disappear from the Signature tab in Mail > Preferences... they just disappear from the Mail account and don't show up in the Signature dialogue box above the text entry area... :shrug: ... this is permanent once it happens until I go in and drag the signatures back into the Account under Preferences... ... if that all makes sense...

... The second point you make does make sense actually because my MobileMe e-mail is never affected... ...so now I will have to go research whether I can switch the affected Mail accounts to IMAP protocol... :nuts:

Thanks again...

Tip 360 - MacOS[173] - Re-use Mac drive on PC or ext case.

If you stick a previously system drive off a Mac on a Windows PC running Vista and probably other versions of the OS disk manager will not delete the EFI partition of 200Mb. In order to remove this partition….

Click START
Type CMD in the RUN box
Type DISKPART at the command prompt
Type list disk

This will now show you all the drives

TYPE select disk X

where X is the drive number of the drive you wish to remove the EFI partition.

TYPE clean

Done. You can now run Disk Manager and initialise then format the drive

Tip 361 - Hardware - Upgrade your own RAM and save money.

Apple are notorious for charging more than the market value for memory upgrades. I have spoken about memory upgrades before but not for some time and not for the current models.

iMac

All models come with 4Gb now and all models are now built with desktop components so the motherboard has 4 slots.

Apple's price to upgrade from 2 x 2Gb to 4 x 2Gb is £139 for the base model or £160 for all the other models.

If you buy this from Crucial the price is:

2x2Gb (4Gb) = £67.84 (saving you £70 or £90)

2x4Gb (8Gb) = £459 (saving you £180)

Note the price from apple of 2x4Gb is £480 but this is instead of the 2x2Gb. If you buy a 2x4Gb kit from Crucial you would have 12Gb


Mac pro

Quad core (4 slots)

Because of the minimum amount being 3x1Gb the only options to save money are buying 1x1Gb unless you are buying large amounts of ram.

Apple charge £1480 EXTRA for 4x4Gb whilst Crucial charge £834

You could also buy 2x4Gb and remove one of the original 1Gb Dimms giving you 10Gb for £417

DUAL QUAD Core (8 slots)

Because of the minimum amount being 6x1Gb the best option to save money is to buy the machine with 4x2Gb and paying Apple £80. You now have 4 free slots to which you can add.

4x2Gb (16Gb in total) for £194 saving £126

4x4Gb (24Gb in total) for £834 - This is not a normal amount but it is £2960 for 32Gb !!!

8x4b (32Gb in total) for £1668 saving £1232 and allowing you to sell the 2x2Gb if you must!


Mac Mini & Macbook

Just pay Apple the £80 extra for 4Gb it is not worth doing it yourself.


Macbook Air

You cannot upgrade the memory


Macbook pro

These require 2 SoDimms and all computers have 2 when you purchase the machine so if you upgrade you must replace the original ones.

2Gb to 4Gb - Just pay Apple the £80 extra for 4Gb it is not worth doing it yourself.

2/4Gb to 8Gb - SCAN.CO.UK 2x£110 = £220 saving £340

 

[cowasaki]

Tuesday 10th November
Tip 362 - Hardware - Upgrade your own HD and save money.

As with memory Apple are notorious for charging more than the market value for HD upgrades. With HDs though it is not just a matter of sticking the drive into a slot but it is not too difficult and with the installation disks it is not a difficult job. It is best done after checking that the machine works and before any data is added.

iMac

Ouch! This is not the easiest machine to upgrade but it does use a 3.5" drive. It will invalidate your warranty and due to the problems of installing the drive and the warranty problem I would just bite the bullet and have the drive you want installed from new.

Mac pro

This is easy and is a place where you can make MASSIVE savings…..

Buy your machine with the default drive. Apple charge £80 to upgrade the standard 640Gb drive to 1Tb. You can buy a 1Tb drive (Samsung F1) for about £55 so saving £25 and you will still have the original 640Gb drive.

For the 2nd-4th drives Apple charge £160 for 640Gb and £240 for 1Tb. Just forget it and buy them elsewhere. It is absolute simplicity to fit them and does not void any warranty.


Mac Mini

Apple charge £80 to upgrade your internal drive to 320Gb from 160Gb. You can buy a 320Gb drive for under £50 plus an external drive case for £10 so for £20 less you can have the same capacity plus a 160Gb external drive.

Apple charge £160 to upgrade your internal drive to 500Gb from 160Gb. You can buy a 500Gb drive for around £65 plus an external drive case for £10 so for £85 less you can have the same capacity plus a 160Gb external drive.


Macbook

Apple charge £40 to upgrade your internal drive to 320Gb from 160Gb. This is a no brainer, just get Apple to do it.

Apple charge £120 to upgrade your internal drive to 500Gb from 160Gb. You can buy a 500Gb drive for around £65 plus an external drive case for £10 so for £45 less you can have the same capacity plus a 160Gb external drive.


Macbook pro

You will not save much by replacing the drive yourself as the extra is +-£40
