Q: I installed QuickTime 7.2 on my Mac and my movies aren’t playing in either QuickTime or Flash. What should I do?

A: On some Intel-based Macintoshes this version of QuickTime affects the computer’s ability to play web-based videos. Unfortunately, this version can also impact other applications.

Please try another browser, such as Firefox, to see if the issue still exists. If needed, downgrade to QuickTime 7.1.6 for Mac.

First of all, the new printers came with a printer cartridge, but it isn’t a FULL printer cartridge. They’re shipped a bit more than half-full to prevent leakage during shipping. They’re shipped right inside the machine, so I guess this is a bit of a concern.

At any rate, if your printer suddenly comes up with a “Low Toner” message, gently remove the printer cartridge and then ever-so-gently tilt it from side to side - gently, please. Then put it back in the machine. What this does is redistribute the toner, which has probably merely settled to the bottom or one side of the cartridge. You should have enough toner in the cartridge for approximately 5,000 to 6,000 copies. A full cartridge should give you about ten thousand copies, depending on what you print.

Toner carridges are expensive, so you want to be frugal with your ink. Print one copy of your test and then run off the other copies you need on the Risograph machine. It costs less.

Thanks, and if you have any questions about this, please let me know. I can show you how to find the number of copies you have printed so far.

1. If you have any assignments, categories, or scores labeled with a / mark in the title (for instance an assignment named Compare/Contrast or a category Homework/Classwork) the / mark needs to be removed from the name. The program uses that mark to delete items. This needs to be corrected ASAP. In other words, don’t use the slash mark.

2. To assist PowerSchool in collecting statistical information, PowerGrade will not be available to all schools every day. The PowerGrade load will be increased incrementally as more adjustments are made to PowerSchool. The PowerSchool Administrator in each school will be notified if access is available in that school. Access will be available for all schools at a minimum of every other day.

3. When using PowerGrade, be sure to plug into the network with an ethernet cable and choose the School EN or DHCP EN location. Working using the wireless network is sort of like using your cell phone. Sometimes calls get dropped. Well, if this happens with a gradebook, grades, classes, etc. can be scrambled or lost.

4. If you experience any problems with PowerGrade, please notify me. (mdeare@scsk12.org) It is helpful if you can provide the following information:
Your Name
Your School
Time of Day
Connection (Wireless/Ethernet)
Any problem (even if the problem was resolved)
Resolution (if there was one)

Thank you for your patience as we work through these issues.
