When you close Firefox you’ll get a warning to lose all current open tabs and until recently I didn’t know there was an option available to save your current session. If you open the preferences of Firefox, you’ll see the screen as shown below. Select the option: ‘When Firefox starts: Show my windows and tabs from last time’ and you’ll be set to go. Restart Firefox and notice that your tabs still exists.
The Gmail (and calendar) notifier on the Mac are default sending your password as plain text over the internet. You can however change this in a hidden setting dialog to send all data over https by holding down the Command and Option key and pulling down the Notifier menu, then click the Preferences option and a dialog will pop-up. Now enter SecureAlways (exactly as shown) in the Key-field and put a 1 in the Value-field. Click Set and restart the Notifier. All communications with the Google servers will be secure from now on!
Since Apple released Safari for Windows Vista (and XP) I’ve been trying to get it installed, however the following error was keeping me from a successful install;
“The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate … Error Code 2738″
I found out that the fix is a simple one!
1.) Open up the start menu and type in “cmd”, wait for it to finish searching the command prompt program and run it as an Administrator (Right mouse button and select “Run as Administrator”).
2.) (Make sure you are Administrator) Once the Command Prompt is open simply type in the following command “regsvr32 vbscript.dll” and press enter.
Ignore any errors you might may encounter.
3.) You are ready to reinstall Safari 3 Beta and run it on Windows Vista!
Oracle can be a real pain to get installed on your server, however, since they’ve created a Debian (Sarge and later) repository it is a lot easier. Getting it to work with PHP (in this case version 5) will be another story which this small how-to will describe.
First, add the Debian repository to your /etc/apt/sources.list by adding the following two lines at the bottom of the file;
# Oracle XE deb http://oss.oracle.com/debian unstable main non-free
Afterwards run the following chain of commands as root;
wget http://oss.oracle.com/el4/RPM-GPG-KEY-oracle -O- | apt-key add - apt-get update apt-get install oracle-xe
Now Oracle is installed on your system and it will ask you to run /etc/init.d/oracle configure first.
Since this was the easy part let’s continue to the hard part; enabling Oracle in PHP. (continue reading…)
De Mac versie van MSN Messenger 6.0 is uitgebracht door onze vrienden van Microsoft. Dit is een Universal Binary wat inhoud dat je deze versie zowel op de Intel als de G5 processoren kunt draaien. Helaas zit er nog geen ondersteuning in voor de ingebouwde iSight.
