How to maintain the health of my mac?

Are there things to maintain effective and preventive should I do to keep my mac running smoothly? If so, what are the resources, or the steps I take and how many times it is desirable to keep my computer running optimally. I have an iMac, 201, processor 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3 memory 4 GB 1333 Mhz DDR3.

Thank you

Dan

Everything is built in the mac and it does it automatically.

Do NOT use any 'cleansing' of applications such as CleanMyMac. They affect only, they do not contribute

  • How to maintain the life of your printer

    It seems more common that everyone feared how to maintain the service life of the cartridges from the printer itself.  As many variations of parameters and environment may play a role in how long your ink will actually last. A more official document can be found here about the science behind the ink, how to use it and how to make it last longer.  I will get into issues that affect the overall performance and life cycle of the printer.  I recommend to use the Startup ink supplied with the printer until he is gone because it contains chemicals of this condition and prolong the life of the print head for future use.

    I urge users to keep the printer connected directly to a wall outlet (namely for troubleshooting purposes). As with all electronics that are showing signs of failure, you can start with the power source if one really wants to follow the flow of a schema logic.  By eliminating the devices that can not to themselves, you removed a piece more equipment from the equation.  A more specific reason would be due to electromagnetic interference.  Wireless devices are vulnerable to interference with symptoms like error messages of false, lines in digital images, strange noises and frequent jams.

    Surge protectors must regulate the power distributed to each connected device.  It is possible that the printer is not the right amount of power and may fail as the printer power problems in hibernation mode with more features like duplex printing, it is impossible to recover , cable USB not detected and the light on the module displaying a yellow instead of green.  If the module and the surge protector are fighting for the control, it can cause a variety of problems that could easily be repaired by plugging the printer directly into a wall outlet.

    The next major issue many users face is the print head.  It is as well as the maintenance of ink as well.  It is important to clean the print head and the best way to do that is to use it and keep the good ink in the printer.  Over time, the chemicals can not even begin to change or develop air bubbles in the cartridge.  Not to mention, ink (well pigmented) still contains fluids that can evaporate if the printer is not rooted and off properly when not in service.  Of course, some of the processes of preparation printer used when the power of the printer can use very valuable ink, but, on the other hand, it's good for the life of the printhead to leave these processes to perform according to its specifications.

    The print head is composed of tiny nozzles and parts fragile this is why it is also one of the most expensive areas of the printer.  Most printers contain many self-cleaning utilities which is recommended to regularly (I suggest at least once a month) to help keep the printhead clogging and causing stains on the sheet itself. There are a number of unconventional methods to try once the printhead has dried up in fact, but when you try these steps you may totally break the part.

    Dust and smoke particles can also cause problems with the print head, but the printer entirely.  It is often the main killer of electronics as well as hairs and animal dander, dirt from moisture and humidity, paper for printer cheap and sand.  The air is full of impurities and really can not be prevented.  Preventive measures can be taken with dehumidifiers and a uniform cleaning, but over time, there is no real way to prevent it from happening.  Dust and air blowers have been known to cause not only solders to separate but may deposit particles of dust in places that could actually damage the printer entirely.  Instead, a favorite device is known as an empty computer.  It helps to remove the fine dust in the sense just that pushing forward into the printer.

    Paper jams also cause many more problems if is not removed correctly. HP recommends pulling the paper in the direction of the gears.  When removing a paper jam, you won't hear a grinding because it leads finally to the teeth are stripped like a screw, but simply once fully detach one of these devices. It is virtually impossible to fix a paper roll or similar because all parts are connected to each other and not sold in parts stores.

    At the back of most HP printers, you can remove the rear access door or duplexer (double-sided printing device) and easily join the paper in this way.  If you see the paper jam is located next to the Board, and then remove the piece from the back and take the paper with both hands to apply a gentle tug of same, and you should have no problem in removing the paper in this way.

    Paper quality can play a large role in the life of your printer.  Cheap paper can free of paper dust up into the gears and small machinery within the printer and are very difficult to clean.  Print incorrect parameters and issues related to food can cause the paper to stay in places that are not as easy to do.  In this case, remove the paper as long as slowly and patiently as possible to avoid them ripping out pages in places like between the wheels under the printhead and also causing error messages that will not disappear.  When troubleshooting printers, patience and troubleshooting documents will also help you keep your printer running longer.

    The printer doesn't like to not be put off by anything other than the power button.  I have always recommended the printer off when not in use (at least for long periods of time) to help keep the ink dry and high printing quality.  The reason why it is not recommended is because people will be unplugging the printer, while he is doing something and the negative effects that this might have some alignment problems serious, burn the computer chips and components similar to that in computers, fake error messages and possibly bricking of the printer if done at the wrong time.  Resets hard are great troubleshooting steps, but the abuse of this feature can result in irreparable damage.

    Fanning the paper before put you in the status bar is a good practice. About 25 sheets are perfect, because an overload of the status bar may also cause paper jams.  The paper guides of setting and selecting the appropriate paper type will put the science behind these settings wisely. Don't put paper in the tray while the printer is printing, crumpled, dirty, or coexist paper types and paper clips are all things to avoid.

    Software and communication issues deserve a section all to themselves.  The measures to prevent problems of this kind could not covered in a post, let alone a chapter.  The best thing to do to increase the performance and connectivity is to set a static IP address in the URL embedded in the printer if the printer is set up on a network (steps to do this are different from the printer to the printer).  USB cables must not be more than 3 meters long and kept in good condition as well as the power supply cord.  Keep your valuables out of reach of children and buy an extended service plan for many reasons.  You can enjoy all the services offered with a service plan in the case of a defective printer or simple product questions.  Keep the firmware up-to-date and to read reviews before you buy any electronic device.

    After reading this, I'm sure you're aware, that's all common sense, but at the time where you do not consider one of these suggestions you think back and wonder "if I had taken 10 seconds longer to avoid that I wouldn't spend 2 hours more set.»  Mistakes are made when frustrations and lack of care.  These are not delicate machines that deserving the highest shelf in the bathroom, but an understanding must be met, that once it's broken this avoidable?

    Troubleshooting of many documents can be found at www.hp.com/support.  They must be followed in order to avoid the repetition of the steps, steps unnecessary and causing more frustration.

  • How to open the flash drive on mac?

    How to open the flash drive on mac? NOT IN THE BROWSER. On the desktop as windows. When I double click on windows icon, it opens a window where I can open my swf file by 'open'-> 'Browse' then choose my file and click on 'OK '. ON MAC, there is no freaking icon. I've been looking hours wasted because of bullshit like this. I tried the alternatives, but they open the games. They only open the videos. SO HOW TO OPEN THIS WINDOW ON MAC?

    I FINALLY FOUND IT. When you google flash drive brings you always in the wrong place. If you search for "adobe flash player" or "adobe flash projector" leads to a page that installs it as a plugin for your browser. If you want real flash drive as on pc you can do 'open'--> 'Browse' then choose my file and click on 'OK' download Adobe flashplayer - Debug downloads.

    Get off at mac and download 'To download the Flash Player projector'

    I hope this helps for the future people, man it was a fight

  • How to maintain the Central Position during resizing

    How can I maintain the central position of the image in a re-size?  It would be useful to know both in photoshop and illustrator, but looking online, I couldn't find much information.

    You're talking about using the free transform on a layer or an object?   With Image > resize the central position is irrelevant.

    If you talk about free transform, hold down the ALT (Opt) to get expansion around the handle of the Center (of which yoo can move) and also the SHIFT key if you want to keep the proportions.

  • How to maintain the Illustrator pen tool race settings (size, brush, etc.) for any new route?

    I'm a newbie, so it's probably obvious, but I can't find it in the tutorials or documents.  In Illustrator, I want to keep the race settings when creating multiple paths with the pen tool.  However, whenever I start a new path, the time settings back to what should be a default value.  For example, I put 16pt + Variable + Basic and STROKE width profile path.  When I start a new path, return to 1 point + uniform + Basic settings, and I have to back to my original. Other art programs I've used maintain the settings of the tool used lately until they are manually changed.  How can I get the settings to stay through multiple uses of the pen tool?  Thank you.

    Hi Bion_s,

    In the framework of play in Illustrator for a solution, I found that if you open your appearance Panel (window > appearance), select the menu drop down and deselect New Art has basic appearance.


    I found that when this option is disabled, you can select your profile and the width of the line and shoot several times without him returning to the default line!

    Please let me know if it works for you. I don't know how it might affect your workflow on other projects, but it has led to the behavior that you seemed to want.

    See you soon,.

  • How to judge the health index

    Hello
    I just want to know how to judge the index is in good health
    I know I should look
    BLEVEL, LEAF_BLOCKS, DISTINCT_KEYS, CLUSTERING_FACTOR
    in dba_indexes

    But how to calculate that value the health of an index

    I know that BLEVEL must be 3 or less, the other rules?

    Thank you very much

    So, how can I reduce my grouping factor if it is very high?

    You would have to physically rearrange the rows in the table to match the index. (that is to say, re-create the table with an ORDER BY according to the index key columns).
    This can improve the collection for only 1 index. It can and will degrade clustering for another index on the same table. So if you have several indexes, all queries to support just as important, it's not a course, you should take.

    You should also review your index definitions. If you have the right and columns, in a concatenated index, the order of the columns.

  • How to protect the health of your battery on the t420

    Hey,.

    What is the best way to protect the health of your battery? When my laptop recharges and 100%, will again be the discharg and charg battery upward or the laptop gets its power directly from the power supply?

    THX in advance

    My recommendation is to install ThinkVantage Power Manager. Then the battery tab, and then click maintenance of batteries. This allows you to set the Mode of Charge to something like min 40%/max 80% in order to avoid charging the battery to 100%. Keep the battery at 100%, while the ThinkPad is on AC for long periods will hasten its deterioration.

    I have tested a model and extend the model to the whole of the site soon. However, I realize every time I change my template and update the web pages concerned, any security web pages are lost and replaced by the default in the model.

    Is it possible that I can apply the changes to the model while maintaining the individual title of each web page? Currently, the default title of the template is my company name. Then I add what is the web page according to the name of the company. Ex: 'Society - Contact information '.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    This wouldn't happen with a model of appropriate construction.
