Gmail Calendar Sync Problem
Wednesday, 17 March 2010 22:07

 I just wanted to post something strange that was happening to me the other day. I have used calendar sync for awhile now and absolutely love it. I recently got a droid and needed calendar sync to do a bit more work. I need it to sync calendar dates between my work exchange computer, my laptop, my home computer, and droid will then sync with Google calendar. I was having a problem with certain events not being synced. It was mostly repeating events and certain events on my work computer. I have a Gmail account but i didn't start using it until i got a droid. My Gmail login used my regular email. I was using my consultsteimel.com email to log into the calendar sync accounts. I changed to logins to my actual Gmail account and the problem went away.

Delete a saved form entry from firefox
Tuesday, 15 December 2009 10:16
Another cool tip i found today.  In Firefox you can set it so it save all of your entered data.  I'm not talking about a saved password thats a different section.  Tools -> options -> security -> saved Passwords.  I'm talking when you enter something into any form, whether its a login or an address or anything.  When you mistype an entry its listed there forever.  How do you delete one entry without deleting all of your saved data?

Go to the form where the mistake is. Put your cursor in the text entry and hit down until the incorrect entry is highlighted. Now press shift + del.  Glorious day!

windows 2003 Server
When tyring to rejoin a computer to the domain recieved an error
"There are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper"

Make sure that ports 1094,1029,6004,1025 are open both ways also port 136.
Try joining the domain with a different name, it will join the domain and then tell you the name is wrong and change it to the previous name.

When i opened outlook this morning i got an error that says "Cannot start Microsoft Office Outlook.Cannot open the Outloook window.  I don't really know why this happened but i have found the resolution.  It appears to be something wrong with the naviagtion pane.

Simply goto start->run then type Outlook.exe /resetnavpane

and guess what ... it opens fine. 

Quick easy fix to a real show stopper.

Having trouble sleeping or hibernation?
Sunday, 09 December 2007 13:01

The standby and hibernate modes in Microsoft's Windows XP and the sleep mode in Vista are meant to be great time-savers. But too often a sleeping PC wakes up on its own--or doesn't awaken when you want it to.
