I have been running my Wi-Fi network with a FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN for about a year, which has worked perfectly under Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Since I recently switched to a new iMac with OS X Lion, the Wi-Fi has become extremely unstable. The iMac with the new Apple operating system lost the wireless network at irregular intervals and could no longer access the Internet. The Wi-Fi interruption was not noticeable from the outside - the Wi-Fi icon in the menu bar remained at full deflection, but access to the Internet was no longer possible. A short-term remedy was to deactivate Wi-Fi and then reactivate it - until the next time the Wi-Fi connection was lost. Strangely enough, this phenomenon even extended to my iPad, which also lost the Wi-Fi connection at irregular intervals. How this problem can be solved permanently in conjunction with a FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN is described below.

SEO: Why a blog is always an asset.
I am often asked by entrepreneurs: "Do we need a blog?". People also often ask me: "Do I need a blog?". My answer is almost always: "Of course!" - I am happy to explain why I think so at this point. But first there is the banal question: What is a blog anyway and what functions does it perform? To a large extent, this question already contains the answer to the first question. This is because a blog usually performs several functions and is much more than just a platform on which articles can be written. From the perspective of an SEO (search engine optimizer), a blog is a valuable tool for making content available and bundling it from several channels. So what does a blog have to do with search engine optimization? I would like to explain this in more detail in this article.

Manager seminar with 30 gentlemen from middle management. Meeting at the conference hotel on the last day. The seminar leader speaks:
"Gentlemen, let's finish with a bit of general education. Let's see what you've got. So - I'll give you a classic quote and you tell me who said it, where and when".
Steve, thank you for everything. Rest in peace.

Sky Pay-TV gets bogged down - or: This would not have happened with FileMaker...
A long-time friend calls me and gives me a voucher for 12 months of Sky World and all HD channels for free until the end of the year. Even though I only get a few hours of TV a week myself - four new children's channels, after all, and thanks to the HD channels I can even watch the first half of the Bundesliga. The connection fee and delivery costs were also included, and the required digital receiver and smartcard were delivered free of charge. Hey, I liked being able to get a taste of the Sky world in this way and completely free of charge, so I was very pleased and gratefully redeemed the voucher.
"I was manly, bold, I was free and I had long hair."
My wife got to know me, not the other way around. She literally stalked me. No matter where I went, she was already there. It was twelve years ago now. Back then, I was a die-hard motorcyclist, I only wore black sweatshirts, frayed jeans and biker boots, and I had long hair. Of course, I also had an outfit for special occasions. Then I wore a black sweatshirt, frayed jeans and white sneakers. Housework was an evil that I avoided whenever possible. But I liked myself and my life. So that's how she got to know me. "You're my dream man. You're so masculine, so daring and so free."
FMM Award at the FileMaker Conference 2011: THANK YOU!
At the end of 2010, I had the idea of setting up an information portal for FileMaker, as there was not yet a really wide selection in this area. It quickly became clear that the portal should be called goFileMaker - a name that implies a friendly and direct invitation to take a look at the extensive but easy-to-use database system. No sooner said than done ... Read more
Exhibition "35 years of Apple computers" at the Oldenburg Computer Museum
The fact that the computer museum, which is unique in this form in Germany, is located in Oldenburg of all places is of course a very fortunate coincidence. Even better is the current special exhibition "35 Years of Apple Computers", which the OCM (Oldenburg Computer Museum) is presenting from May 12 to June 30, 2011. On display are many original Apple computers from the Apple I clone to the Apple Lisa, Macintosh Portable, Newton Message Pad and the current Apple iPad. All of the exhibited devices are fully functional and can be used by visitors and thus experienced at first hand. The Oldenburg Computer Museum has a total of over 700 exhibits in its collection and usually displays around 50 exhibits and around 20 operational systems. From the ZX81 to the Atari ST to current systems, the Oldenburg Computer Museum has something for every visitor - at no cost... 🙂
