A mac bluetooth keyboard is not capable of pressing ctrl+alt+del. I know mac del is more like backspace, but ctrl+alt+fn+del doesn't work either. The computer has win7. Win 8 wouldn't be a problem. Until today the client was using a literal second keyboard for logon only. The "fix" is to press ctrl+alt on mac keyboard and click del on the onscreen accessibility keyboard.

If he has more than 10gb of data its worth paying for the backups. Also for just pictures, onedrive, and drop box both give you extra free space

Linode is another competitor or you could go with a bigger dedicated box from someone like kimsufi for 5-10 euros a month

KOTEX GOD OF BLOOD posted:can someone help me fix my boss's outlook outlook 2011 doesn't handle more than 10k items in the inbox well. go on owa and move most of the mail to a new folder tree that is not under inbox. also clear out sent items and deleted items. after that is done quit outlook, cmd click it and delete the old identity. create a new identity. it should download the most recent ~1000 messages, then start downloading the oldest messages ~100 at a time. If you are on a slow connection set message headers to download first and it will finish a lot faster. 15gb is not that much if you are on exchange 2010/2013. just keep your inbox, and sent items folders smaller, and mind the send and receive groups.

BangersInMyKnickers posted:Exchange Search The ability to quickly search messages becomes even more critical with archive mailboxes. For Exchange Search, there's no difference between the primary and archive mailbox. Content in both mailboxes is indexed. Because the archive mailbox isn't cached on a user's computer (even when using Outlook in Cached Exchange Mode), search results for the archive are always provided by Exchange Search. When searching the entire mailbox in Outlook 2010, search results include the users' primary and archive mailbox. if you are on windows you have to have proplus/enterprise to use in place archive. on mac you have to have the office 365 version which is a huge gently caress you from microsoft. just buy a more expensive copy of the software you already bought or use owa for searching old email like a poor.

Luigi Thirty posted:do Seagate external hard drives still fall apart? Amazon has a 5tb external Seagate on sale for $129 and a 4tb WD for $131. I know their reputation is not for reliability and the last Seagate I had died within 6 months taking my vast collection of Linux ISOs with it, but I also know WD puts lovely drives in their external boxes too. If you are using it is a drive to back things up they are fine. If you take it out of the enclosure your warranty is likely void and the drives are not going to last as long as a standard internal drive. Also the 5tb ones are SMR so random reads are going to be slower. Still great for media storage and backups.

Just lower your mtu to 1476. You can test this by doing a ping. And then do ping dash l 1500 to see if the mtu is the problem

Get two outdoor rated units with higher power, good for 3miles. http://www.amazon.com/Ubiquiti-NanoStation-locoM2-2-4GHz-Outdoor/dp/B004EGI3CI $50 each. Or get a cheap usb one with a removable antenna like http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-Archer-T2UH-Wireless-Supports/dp/B00UZRVY12/ and then either get a bigger or directional antenna if the normal one isn't good enough. Depending on what is in the walls you might get a better signal just moving the router and the usb stick up higher.

echinopsis posted:im not against cloudy poo poo I guess if its something I can doi easily with a excel I might just do that i was just curious whats things are about I guess if your company is at a level where everyone just remembers everything and its on sticky notes and if no one remembers that order/sale it just didn't happen then a spreadsheet is a good improvement. it really depends on what you can get people to do and whether or not the people in charge support it. if you are at a level where you have an acess/filemaker/excel file to track stuff and its become slow and confusing and all the people who know how it works are dead then a crm like salesforce can be a huge productivity boost. like fire half of your sales staff and hire two consultants and make more money than before. also for this to work the people in charge have to be willing to fire people who do not support the changes or you will be worse off than before what are you trying to do? what does your company do to make money?
