  1. Rino, Your PC is having problems communicating via the internet. If you are using a wireless connection, try using a "wired/Cat5" connection to your modem/router. Also read and follow any steps that apply found in this link. http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Using-Second-Life-with-a-firewall/ta-p/1304539
  2. Gabi, Submit a Support Case using the link below https://support.secondlife.com/create-case/ Land & Region / Report an offline Region and supply the full region name. LL will kick start it ASAP.
  3. Dale, Other than.. 1) It's totally against the LL TOS for them to have given you this information 2) If this is a Premium Account then their Payment Method is available to you to drain real world cash from' 3) You can impersonate them and experience all their previous Karma, good & Bad. If it was given to you as a request via a Last Will and Testament just be careful and complete the business you have been asked to do.
  4. Alexis, If Rolig's excellent suggestion does not work for your hubby, please note that most DVD sellers offer free replacement DVD players for their systems. The licensing information about what movies have been paid for is kept in their database associated under the purchasing avatar's name and UUID - and as such, any new player will be able to re-register and obtain the play list again. Also, he needs to look in his Lost & Found for a coalesced object - This icon is unmistakable - it look like a group of boxes stacked on each other and it will have a name that either makes sense or be total nonsense. The group return function when running on automatic will name that object after the last prim selected during the group select. Simply rez that object somewhere the same size of larger than the original parcel you were on. Why? All the objects will rez in their approximate positions as when they were grouped together by the return function. In the worst case, this can be anywhere in a virtual cube 64m on a side.
  5. Rolig has answered this question for you with the detailed steps. Please follow this link: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/Technical/All-buildings-amp-objects-are-pink/qaq-p/1407699/comment-id/20142 But to quote" "For a quick but temporary solution, go to Preferences >> Graphics and disable Basic Shaders." Lets assume you downloaded and reinstalled/updated the Catalyst drivers per the included instructions and are still having the same issue. It is also possible that your particular GC does not support Basic Shading very well. While the LL or 3rd party viewer interfaces simply seek a positive reply from the PC OS & GC OS to a query in regards to included functionality, you may simply just have to remember to manually disable this function each time you upgrade a viewer. ~~ PINK IS THE NEW R B G! ~~
  6. Foxxel, Billing for your account premium is based on your account creation date. Therefore you may pay monthly, quarterly or annually. Any "premium only" services are automatically credited to your land use such as the free 512 sqm mainland offer when you obtain a Linden home ~ or ~ you purchase some mainland parcels directly that size or larger.. LL will adjust your payment schedule to the next Premium membership billing period beginning date. Additional Land Billing comes in a few different categories: 1) Private Regions [Full / Homestead / ] - When you acquire a Private Region from either a private party via a transfer ~ or ~ directly from LL, the tiers for these regions is due and payable on the anniversary date of the transfer of the region into your ownership. Thus these fees are completely separate from your account Premium membership fees. Please note that your free 512 sqm allocation as a Premium Member does not count towards any tiers due when you purchase a Private Region. You pay for these by having USDs in account in your Account Balance. You will have to place USDs here by either selling Lindens earned or by funding using your on-file Payment Method. 2) Mainland Regions/Parcels - When you purchase Mainland Regions/Parcels directly from LL or buy one via a transfer from a private party, the tiers for these is also due and payable on the anniversary date of the transfer of the region or parcel into your ownership. You pay for these by ramping up your sqm allocation fees from the following link [ Land Use Fees ] on your account: https://secondlife.com/my/account/landfees.php?lang=en-US Your Mainland parcels can be reviewed from the [ My Mainland ] link: https://secondlife.com/my/account/land.php?lang=en-US 3) You may also lease whole regions or parts of regions called parcels from Private Region Owners or from other authorized 3rd parties who sub-let parcels from Private Region Owners or Mainland Region/Parcel Owners. In this case your lease payments are due to the authorized agent on your agreed upon lease payment due dates. It is up to you to deliver the lindens due to the correct parties. Please note, you are not paying tiers when you are leasing a parcel from a Private Region owner of any 3rd party sub-letting you space. This is a lease payment., Important: Always verify that a 3rd party leasing agent is in fact authorized to lease land to you on behalf of the actual Region Owner. Usually, this will be stated clearly in the Region Covenant.
  7. Tenants who lease parcel can either 1) Buy it Directly and manage it directly ~ or ~ 2) Buy for Group ~ or~ 3) Buy it Directly & deed the parcel to the group. 2) & 3) are the same - we as region owners have the ability to reclaim any parcel of course. but parcel ownership grans the tenant a bit more privacy per se.as well as control. I had a tenant once go bonkers and ban me from his parcel. That is a no no in my covenant.. He had no idea i could simply reclaim the parcel.
  8. IMGypsy, Yes it's perfectly safe to do. I encourage all my my tenants to do this exact process to make sure that they can control who visits their parcel and to allow them control of their land. Here is the information I send to each when they lease from me. 2) [CHANGE] THE PARCEL NAME AND DESCRIPTION Please give your parcel a unique name reflecting YOU and/or your Family or Business. Also, please remove the sales information in the Description and enter the Description you want to let your Friends and Family know what you are all about. Please do so now by right-mouse clicking on the Parcel anywhere / selecting About Land / and selecting the [ GENERAL ] tab and typing in your Parcel Name and Description in the... You guessed it...Name: & Description: fields. 3) [sET] SECURITY NOW Be Griefer proof by doing these few security changes NOW! Ready? a) Right-mouse clicking on the Parcel anywhere / selecting About Land / and selecting the [ OPTIONS ] tab. o If using the SL original Viewer uncheck the boxes that say Everyone on the [ Create Objects:] option line. o If using the new SL2 Viewer uncheck the boxes that say Everyone on the [ Build:] option line. This means only you or your Group members may rez objects on your parcel depending on if you bought the land using the [ Buy Land ] or the [ Buy for Group ] option. b) Please leave the Everyone option checked for the [ Object Entry: ] and the [ Run Scripts: ] - However - If your neighbor's parcel is unsecure then you should only allow these options to group members. c) Make sure the Edit Terrain option is unchecked. d) If you have your parcel owned [deeded] to a group, please make sure that the "Anyone can join" option under Group is not checked and do all the above security measures in the group Roles.
  9. Please select the Options / Edit Question option on your original post and paste in the information in your viewer's HELP / About [Your Viewer Name] section and we may be able to help you better.
  10. DJ Jenny, Hello and welcome to SL Answers. You have asked several questions so in the order you have presented them: 1) Can't Log into a simulator - Many reasons why this can happen - Rolig cites several in her post. I put the link below and the Login Failure discussion by Jeremy Linden is a good one as well.: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Graphics-cards/ta-p/700073 ~ also ~ http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Login-failure/ta-p/700109 2) why phoenix viewer seems to let me log in normally on win7? Graphics Cards control your whole user experience in SecondLife. Your PC & OS & Graphics Card together need to be up to snuff for the SL3 Viewer & Firestorm to work well for you. Recommended reading... http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Graphics-cards/ta-p/700073 The notion of logging in normally is one of perception. All the main SL & 3rd party viewers work well on Windows 7 PCs. Many times the PC needs patches applied and a current Video driver update. Yes, Phoenix uses less PC graphics resources per se but not necessarily memory. For that matter 2GB memory is a flat minimum I recommend for a PC wanting to run any SL viewer. [i use Win7 PCs as well as Vista PCs to access SL ] 3) why any other viewer of second life from 2.0 and after been crushing on vista? Once again, . All the main SL & 3rd party viewers work in Windows Vista as well. Many times the PC needs patches applied and a current Video driver update. . [i use Win7 PCs as well as Vista PCs to access SL ] 4) can get the old SL viewer 1.2.3.... No, it's no longer recommended - Use Phoenix or Imprudence if you like this style interface If you can copy and paste your PC information into this chat thread we may be able to assist you more. Use the SL Viewer HELP / About }viewer name{ option and select the appropriate copy to clipboard option

  12. Well you won't be reported by me. I was half tempted to suggest that the PC be put back in the box and returned to the store as well.
  13. Morena, Suas "Local PC" informações de conta para o Avatar foi comprometida. Execute uma instalação "limpa" do "Visualizador de SL" usando estas instruções: http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/How-to-uninstall-and-reinstall-Second-Life/ta-p/1375231
  14. Vianderose, [FOLLOWING ALONG WITH THE NOTION THIS IS A MISPLACED JOKE] After reviewing all your previous posts to SecondLife Answers AND the replay and your apparent continuing difficulty in learning how to use the SecondLife Viewer and seemingly having great difficulty interacting with others, I recommend the following: 1) TAKE A CLASS or TAKE THE AVAILABLE TUTORIALS in your native language! Links Below: [ http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Second-Life-Quickstart/ta-p/1087919 ] This excellent resource is available in many languages as well. also http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Managing-land/ta-p/700113#Section_.5 ~ or ~ 2) Failing to get the knowledge needed to continue productively in SecondLife [/me hanging my head in mourning if this becomes the case] - Jump to the link below and select the Cancel Account option. Problem permanently solved. https://secondlife.com/my/account/cancel.php?lang=en-US
  15. IMGyspy, Here are the details on setting up the Snipping tool Nyll mentions if it does not show up on your version of Windows Vista / Windows 7 http://www.mydigitallife.info/install-or-enable-snipping-tool-in-windows-vista/ & http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/how-to-use-the-windows-snipping-tool/ Have fun
  16. Jay & Joe, Weeeee - I love shopping! - Ohh this is a problem .... Sorry OK back to Anwsers. by all means open a support case per the instructions & link provided. Please provide as much detail as you can in regards to your PC and it's hardware & software with that support ticket. I tested the Marketplace with IE / Firefox & Chrome and it is functioning correctly in general. Adding items & Removing them is working, as well as requesting Qty changes. I tested using Microsoft Security Essentials and Avast as the AV solutions on several Vista & Windows 7 PCs both 32bit & 64bit.. Make sure that you do not have an anti-virus or anti-malware software solution that is preventing you from using cookies with your internet browsers. Also make sure that you have the most current updates and security patches applied per your PC and OS manufacturer.
  17. LisaBoo, ...and a brand new feature of the latest SL viewer release from LL - If you don't have anything that qualifies to be in the Lost & Found folder ~ or ~ you Empty it, it doesn't bother displaying it in the Inventory View anymore. Who Knew? I missed the memo about that upgrade! Of course, this could also be a bug. I'm from the old school where it you change something that people see every day as they use any software, it might be nice to let them know that you are making it disappear if it's empty. Just sain'! I haven't reported it via JIRA.
  18. Al recibir ese mensaje de error, significa que la persona tiene desactivada la opción de permitir que su / su nombre a ser detectable en la búsqueda. Conseguir que el mensaje le dice que sus nombre es válido Sin embargo, esto es todo lo que puede determinar.
  19. WHAT - We don’t get paid? and I thought with 12 Kudos you got a Baker's dozen. * giggles *
  20. Leila, As I understand it, the LL Server farms allow for many possible virtual server configurations and your regions can be reassigned to a different processor on the same server or a different server all together in the same datacenter. Back 2+ years ago when we owned 6 regions that were next to each other in the grid we discovered that they were being serviced across 2 different LL datacenters. After a prolonged cross-region troubleshooting session with the LL technical Staff, we made a request to LL to get them all operating in the same datacenter. This lowered the latency time for passing information from one region to the other. This improved the cross regions transfers for our residents significantly. Many flew aircraft and/or walked to use facilities located on all the regions. Problem solved back then. This may be a good place to start if the measured latency times are due to datacenter to datacenter communication latency.
  21. Ashlin, Your Homesteads with all your teraforming customizations are gone. The server space allocated to keep them up and running has been used for other Homesteads. It might be possible that the Lindens have an OAR backup or a LL Backup of your old Homesteads Teraforming, but it's doubtful. What you may be able to do is get a new homestead with one of your old Homestead names. After all, in a virtual world, the name is everything. You can place it next to your qualifying Full Region. Of course you'll have to teraform the island again as you had it and then populate it with any builds. Matts info on the fees is the price you'll need to pay the piper.
  22. Little Mouse, The ATI Mobiltiy Radeon™ X1400 Graphic Card is a pretty low end card. Here is the link for the latest driver from AMD: http://support.amd.com/us/Pages/AMDSupportHub.aspx Go to this page and download the detect software and let AMD do the rest of the work. The older technology Phoenix SL Client software may be your only choice at this time.
  23. Missy, Are you using the latest SL Viewer? If yes, Try logging in at a quiet location [i like "Violet"] and let the inventory rebuild complete. Because you had an inactive account, there is no guarantee that the last skin, hair , clothing you were wearing etc have been recovered. Additionally, your account information may take a few more hours to be completely restored from the backup archives.
  24. Home customization is done from the web page for your home. Touch the security panel by the door and take the URL link to see your control panel.
  25. Here are the things you should do. 1) Mute her avatar account - after this you will no longer hear her chatting nor see her. 2) If she is on your property, Ban her. Problem solved. 3) If you are in a place of business, contact the owners of the business and mention the anoying behavior. Usually, unless this is a clear violation of the SL TOS, all a business owner will do is ban the person outright.
