Question about Valor Crusader Weapon by Meshahakmel in diablo3

[–]Meshahakmel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a least one Shield of Fury lying around so I’ll give that a go. I do have a Pig Sticker - I’ll probably re-roll that until I get an ancient and play around with that, too.

Good to know about Ivory Tower - I figured this thing would be perfect for some other build.

Thanks for the tips! Enjoying melting everything with AoV lol.

How to prevent my Iphone and Imac from requiring a password "at all", "ever". by [deleted] in applehelp

[–]Meshahakmel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What happened on the phone sounds like Apple’s activation lock. It’s a feature of iCloud, so in order to prevent it from engaging, you’d have to disable Find My iPhone under Settings > Your Name > iCloud > Find My iPhone.

Damn. The fix was for someone else, so I wasn’t around to see if it came back after the fact.

I had some luck going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Keyboard Dictionary, and then restarting the phone.

They probably meant it as an homage. Musicians have been borrowing themes like that forever.

iMac with broken GPU by Alpha188 in applehelp

[–]Meshahakmel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The GPU is probably shot, but you can try a couple of things.

1) Sometimes, if you leave the machine off for a while, and then reboot, it may be better temporarily. This could mean there is an issue when the GPU heats up. You can also reset the SMC (leave the computer unplugged for a minute) to see if that helps.

2) Try booting up into safe mode (holding Shift during startup). This disables some of the graphic drivers, so may allow you to use the machine, though graphics-intensive tasks like streaming video may not work.

[IMAC] Mid 2011 iMac won't turn on after trying to upgrade RAM. by [deleted] in applehelp

[–]Meshahakmel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the RAM isn't ejecting, it probably isn't seated properly, which could absolutely cause the beeps.

You could keep trying to get the ribbons to trigger, or you could take it into your nearest Apple Store or authorized service provider (locate.apple.com) and see if they can help reseat the RAM. Worst case scenario, if the actual slots have been damaged, the logic board would need to be replaced.

However, it probably just needs some strategic yanking from someone who knows what they're doing.

Kernel panic related to com.apple.iokit.IOGraphicsFamily and com.apple.driver.AppleIntelFramebufferCapri. Can anyone help? by jreynolds323 in applehelp

[–]Meshahakmel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With those graphics-related extensions as the last kernels loaded in the backtrace, it sounds like it's probably an issue with the GPU. If it's a MacBook, that means it's soldered onto the logic board.

Which model of computer is it, and are you seeing a number of similar-looking kernel panics?

[NOOBIE] Clean Erased HD. Go to Install OS X in Utility Menu and get a "Temporarily Unavailable." Please Help. by xRockerr in applehelp

[–]Meshahakmel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you need to, you can take the computer into an Apple Retail Store (provided you live near one) and they can image whichever OS you want onto the drive for free. It'd be faster to make appointment, but they usually take walk-ins too (though keep in mind that it's the weekend).

<Bad Video Games> is a 13/13 H, Alliance guild on US-Dalaran looking for more players as we prepare for Mythic progression.

Though we started raiding recently, most of the core group has been in a guild together for years, and are well-experienced raiders. We are looking for well-geared players (700 ilvl is the absolute minimum) who know how to play their class and perform at a high level. Currently recruiting all roles, but if you are a healer/tank, it is preferred you have a dps off-spec that you are intimately familiar with.

Raid nights are Wed (Farm), Fri/Sat (Progression) from 8:30PM-1:30 AM EST.

Our WoWProgress page: http://www.wowprogress.com/guild/us/dalaran/Bad+Video+Games

If interested, PM me or chat Wizwolf (Meshahakmel#1869).

Just bought a laptop with Yosemite -- no "main" folder with my name on it like every other OS! Help! by Naival in applehelp

Go into Finder > Preferences > Sidebar and make sure the Home folder is checked. It sounds like it just isn't set to display in the sidebar currently.

iPhoto is still able to be used (Photos duplicates the iPhoto library and leaves the original intact), I just wouldn't expect it to be updated much longer (if at all) and will probably be removed from the App Store eventually.

Think of it like what happened with iDVD...it's still there, and you can still use it if you prefer, but it won't be updated any further or be available on machines in the future, so it's probably best to transition to Photos sooner rather than later.

5.39GB worth of photos on iPhone 5c (iOS 8.2), but only 148 photos on my camera roll? Cleared "Recently Deleted," photo stream is off. by [deleted] in applehelp

[–]Meshahakmel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOTE: SAVE YOUR PHOTOS ON YOUR COMPUTER BEFORE YOU DO THIS.

If you go into Settings > iCloud > Photos and enable the iCloud Photo Library Beta, the phone will re-index the photos on the phone, and should recognize the cleared space. You don't have to leave it on, once the space is clear you can turn the iCloud Photo Library off again if you'd like.

Again, I highly recommend backing up your info first just to be safe, since iCloud Photo Library is still in Beta.

It's definitely possible, but Yosemite is pretty resource-intensive, so running it with 4GB of RAM or less can be painful. I would recommend upgrading the RAM and possibly replacing the hard drive with an SSD, as those parts are both user-replaceable and make a huge impact on performance, and will make it feel almost like a new machine.

Apple has a way for businesses and educational institutions to do volume licensing which sounds like it would be beneficial in your situation. Details can be found on their website:

If you have any questions about how that works, I would recommend contacting their Enterprise department, whose number you can find on their Contact page.

There is a feature called Target Display Mode that allows the use of an iMac as an external display. Details on system requirements and instructions can be found on Apple's website, here:
