I had this problem and called apple and they told me to do a full software restore. They acted like they had never heard of the problem. Well like many who have spoken up on the net, there is a real problem. After doing the software restore it did seem to improve, but then I installed my software and then the BSOD came back. I then did some more searching on the internet. I read many stories of just frustration of Apple tech support not acknowledging this iPhone 4 black screen and locking of the slider. I kept digging and came across one post that mentioned that some new protective cases that cover part of the front could be to blame. Well mine did. So I changed to another protector that did not cover any part of the front screen. I have had no Black Screen of Death problems with it so far. I will update this post if it comes back. But if you are having BSOD problems with your iPhone 4 then check it without your screen protector or case on to see if it goes away.

I have been trying for over 5 hours to order a new iphone 4. The apple website times out. The At&t website generates an error. And the 1800myapple phone number will not accept any calls. If it does then you hit the menu for a phone and then tells you that they are too busy to accept any calls.

I can understand the phones being busy but the apple website not working!?! Does Apple not have one of the most sophisticated websites available?!? Its very frustrating. I called AT&T support and they also have some computer issues. They can not however pre sell the new iPhone 4. Apple what is wrong with you?!? Can you not hire some extra phone order takers today? Can you not add a few more computers to handle the web traffic?

When you need to split your page or post into multiple pages then all you have to do is type.

<!--nextpage-->

into the HTML editor where you would like your page splits to appear.

The Joomla! 1.5 installer fails to install any large module or plugin with the error message “There was an error uploading this file to the server.”

The most common reason for this problem is that the File you have uploaded is too big. The File Size Upload Limit on your Server is set too low to allow larger files to be uploaded. By default PHP allows files up to 2 MB, but this limit needs to be set to 4 MB in order to upload the Component Install File.

If you have access to the php.ini, then change or add the directive upload_max_filesize to “6M” and reload the server configuration.

After trying several thing I finally found the one that worked for me.  You need to edit the .htaccess file. For Search Engine Friendly (SEF) URLs to work in Joomla, you will need to change the htaccess.txt file to .htaccess if you have not already then turn on the RewriteBase option. Note if you are on a mac edit the file before you change it to .htaccess as the (.) will make it invisible on your system. In the file itself, you will find a line that reads #RewriteBase /  you need to change to RewriteBase /  remove the pound (#) sign. This is un-commenting the line thus making it active. Good luck.

Hope this helps someone

After dealing with a lot of .htaccess files in connection with several websites. If you uncompress a .zip or transfer the file from a web server to your desktop via FTP, the file never shows up. Thus making very difficult to edit.

A file that starts with a period is one of the files that OS X hides by default so that you don’t accidentally delete and or alter it thus messing up your file system. However, there could be times that you want access to those hidden mac files. Strangely Apple has not made easy as toggling a menu item in the Finder.

Here is a simple and free solution for you to follow the following few steps. After writing a line or two of code you’ll be able to use Apple’s Automator software to create a plugin that you can use to toggle the view of hidden files from within Finder.

After opening Automator, select Automator from within the Applications Library on the left-hand side. You’ll now see a number of different built-in actions that are available to the Automator application.

Select Run Shell Script from the list of available actions, and drag it into your workflow.

Type (or paste in) the following code into the Run Shell Script text box:

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE

killall Finder

Did you install Kunena in Joomla and the admin buttons don’t show up? In the many cases, the cause was traced to a defective/incomplete installation of Kunena. In particular, one file, somehow or other, failed to properly install.

The one file that was missing was toolbar.kunena.php. For reference for anyone else finding this, the file toolbar.kunena.php is found in the root folder of the archive (tar) and needs to go into administrator/components/com_kunena.

If this does not solve your problem then uninstall Kunena forum then download and install the .zip version and not the tar version.

Is your mac connecting to the wireless router but giving itself a self assigned IP address and not connecting to the internet. Is it a 169.x.x.x address? Let me save you a ton of time.

The fix is:
A. Go to System Preferences -> Security
B. In the Firewall tab, choose either “Allow all incoming connections”

This should solve your problem.
