      <title>Problem with Mac Outlook/Exchange account</title>

<p>At the company where I work, there are only two Macs: I have one, as does a senior executive. Yesterday, I was asked to help out the senior exec, who was having trouble with his email. He&#8217;s running Office: Mac 2011 and Outlook, just as I am. (Both of us are running Mountain Lion, and all software updates are installed on both machines.) His problem is that Outlook keeps freezing up when trying to sync to the Exchange server.</p>

<p>I added his account to my own Outlook on my Mac, and sure enough, Outlook froze up on my Mac, too, when trying to sync his account to the server. I also have a Dell running Win 7. When adding his account to Outlook on it, the Windows machine was able to sync the account. However, after adding the account I noticed the Dell was running the fan much more than ever before, to the point where I could hear it really start to whine then back down at regular intervals. Bear in mind that Outlook was the only app running on the Dell. (I deleted his account from it today, and sure enough, the fan noise is gone.)</p>

<p>So&#8230;it&#8217;s a day later and neither myself, the senior exec, or others in my IT department have been able to figure this out. We think it has something to do with his calendar, maybe a corrupted file attachment. Anyone have any ideas?</p>

        <p>I have a mac mini (Mac mini 3,1) that runs os x mountain lion server that I used to run without a display.&nbsp; I connected remotely and all was well.&nbsp; Occasionally, I would connect my old cinema display, mouse and keyboard but most of the time there was no monitor attached. I then purchased a 15&#8221; vga lcd for ease of hookup to use for those rare times when I needed a display.&nbsp; I used a vga to mini display port connector.&nbsp; When I moved, I temporarily attached a 24&#8221; led display using a dvi to display port connector.&nbsp; Here&#8217;s where it gets weird.&nbsp; If I disconnect the 24&#8221; led display, I cannot get the screen to display on the 15&#8221; display.&nbsp; Further, I get a blank screen when connecting remotely.</p>

<p>It has been a while since I tried to resolve this but I believe I reset the PRAM and didn&#8217;t have any luck.&nbsp; Is there a way to reset the display preferences so that it completely forgets about the displays that had been attached?</p>

        <p>John, Dave,</p>

<p>I recently added the new Java app to Safari, enabling it again after the recent security issues caused me to trash it. But when watching streaming video in Safari, I found my Mac Air running 10.6.8 would almost immediately start the cooling fan. This wasn&#8217;t happening watching the same type of streaming video on Chrome. So I checked the CPU usage in Activity Monitor and found that Chrome running YouTube was using a bit over 7% of CPU time and Safari running Java to show the same video was over 40% of CPU (and the roar of the fans). I like using Safari for most of my browsing, if for no other reason than the implementation of 1Password is much smoother than Chrome&#8217;s. I don&#8217;t going back and forth between two browsers, so I&#8217;m wondering if my analysis is correct, or there&#8217;s some other reason why Mac Air fans are spinning up?</p>

<p>Thanks for a great program.</p>

        <p>Hello all,</p>

<p>I have a late 2010 iMac that has become noticeably sluggish since upgrading to Mountain Lion. (Really, it started with the upgrade to Lion, but it&#8217;s gotten considerably worse since then).&nbsp; I considered selling my computer and upgrading to a brand new iMac, but my needs don&#8217;t presently require that, and I&#8217;d rather wait for the new product launches and upgrades coming late this year and in 2014.&nbsp; </p>

<p>So, I&#8217;m looking for some advice on a RAM upgrade to my current machine.&nbsp; Are there any particular brands you folks recommend? Also, any pointers to useful how-to videos for my particular model would be much appreciated.</p>

<p>Thanks,<br />
