'Safe'
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
The DNS settings match what Comcast says they should be. No HTTP proxies. Unless that can be hidden somewhere not obvious?
I'll try on one of my older computers, if that works it'll be an acceptable workaround.
Java 7 from Oracle is what I was running, though I have uninstalled it at present. The pages I have problems with are not prompting me to get a missing applet, so, I don't know, maybe that's not it at all. I can't find anything older to try that will work with Mountain Lion.
What's the Java status on iOS?
Never going to happen.
Have you tried logging in as a different user?
I have not, I'll try it now.
Appears to be the same.
Do you use a router to share the comcast connection?
Yes, a Time Capsule.
Is there a way to customize the Google services that appear in the top bar thingy? I have less than no use for a Play link, but would very much like to see Reader up there.
Dammit. I think I might need to dive deeper into Tasker. I want to work out how to conditionally read some things aloud. Just, in general--say want the phone to say the number of the caller if it doesn't know the name. Or tell me when certain emails (or from certain senders) arrive. Read me certain SMS messages.
Before I start chasing my tail--does anyone know if there's anything in the market that does that? My phone does already announce who's calling, which is such an energy saver. Group ringtones tell me if I need to get near enough to hear, and then I get the specifics if I want.
A time capsule shouldn't do anything to interfere.
I'm afraid I'm stumped.
