So some note to self (and for archive) from doing the tech support Christmas presents…
Outlook -> Apple Mail/Address Book:
- Install Eudora 6.x/7.x on XP, import files from Outlook (mailboxes, contacts & settings)
- Find eudora files (generally c:\documents and settings\user\Application Data\Qualcomm\Eudora)
- Beware issue about attachments and parts
- Drop Eudora folder onto Eudora Mailbox Cleaner
- In Mail.app repair all the mailboxes
- Done.
For the Harmony Remote, set up the DishNetwork box to never turn off from the remote.
Technicians who come anywhere within 10 feet of a network or broadband drop to a house should recognize if their device requires a crossover cable to attach to a home router. Said tech should recognize that a cable is or is not a crossover when they test it with a network cable tester, or read the cable jacket which clearly says: 568A/568B which indicates a crossover.
