iMAC loses the ability to control external devices. What can I do?
I had problems with my iMAC "End of 2013", where it loses the ability to control devices (USB connected) external, either a printer or a CD/DVd burner. restart the computer will (usually) restore ability of the computer to control the external unit.
With a printer, the computer or send the print job to the printer. If correctly, the printer receives the print job, it will print. Otherwise, I restart the computer, and then the computer can send print job. But, in the case of the CD/DVD burner, the computer needs to communicate with the Cd/DVD writer throughout the registration process. I been rebooted the computer before each record (as a precaution), but today, even this does not ensure a registration succeeded, and a blank disc is ruined.
Unless one of you guys come up with a solution, maybe I have no choice but to throw this computer in the trash and buy a new iMAC. If that seems extreme, I must report that I received my most recent iMac for free. In the last months of Apple Care on my previous iMac, Apple has decided to give me a brand new iMac, because of repeated problems and overheating on the previous Mac.

-One API PI or raspberry beaglebone exists for LabVIEW?
-Power supply Wich can recommend you control with LabVIEW? (some chip solution witn 0 - 30v / 0 - 3A DC)
Thank you very much for your advice!
Best regards
Elena
Elena,
I know raspberry, so no comment on that.
For the rest:
-Do you want to create tools for developers? If so, we must look in the API of project VI and VI server. If this isn't the case, please compile your application LV as executable and call this one using a batch file.
-LV prefer specific supplies. LV is a programming language. There are several power supply providers (including OR) which provide directly the LV API for their power supplies. So, essentially, the approach is:
1. choose food that serves your needs.
2. check if the power supply has a standard interface for programming (such as Ethernet, GPIB, or if the power supply is PXI, is already providing a programming interface!)
3. check if the LV API (so-called "instrument driver") is available for the device. In the case of a PXI system, get you a device driver (for example NI DCPower).
4. check if the LV samples are available (for example in the Finder for example LV once you have installed the driver).

I've just updated El Capitan, but the font size on web pages went all teeny weeny.
I was wondering if we could increase the font size? The page can expand via "zoom in", but then lose the ability to view the web page in the blink of an eye.
Thanks in advance.
Yes. Open the Terminal app and type the following command followed by the Enter key or return:
: write com.apple.Safari com.apple.Safari.ContentPageGroupIdentifier.WebKit2MinimumFontSize - int XX
(triple click on the line to select it to copy and paste into the Terminal application).
Change the XX to the font size you want as the minimum font by default.
Or you can use a css style sheet. This site describes it and the Terminal method: specify Minimum font size in Safari 10.0, macOS Sierra

With the help of Illustrator CS4 (impossible to pass because the office that I contracted does not level) on a Mac under the Mavericks 10.9.5 (just upgraded to 10.6). CS4 crashes when I send to print (I was save as PDF and print only). In addition, the pen tool loses the ability to maintain a multi striped line attributes.
For the second, deselect new Art has basic appearance in appearance (small triangle in the upper-right) Panel dialog box. With regard to the other you tried to delete and time the printer to your list of printers? In addition, since nothing sooner than CS6 has been tested with 10.9.x, the PDF method can be your only hope.
