If you download a PayPal statement as a PDF or other form as a PDF, you may view it in Apple's Preview, but when you print it, it prints a blank page.
Here is a work around.
Right click on the pdf in the finder, choose 'open with' and choose Chrome.
Down in the right, choose print.
It comes up blank. Tick the box that says "Fit to page" and there it is. Print and it will print correctly.
For some reason fit to page in preview does not fix the problem.
It may work with other browsers, I chose Chrome.
As far as I know, it may be related to updating to El Capitan.
Over and Out!

Tmart.com and Their 90 Day Money Back Guarantee
Simply put, Tmart.com's 90 Money Back Guarantee is not to be believed.
I had an Escam 300 that stopped working after just two weeks.
After several emails insisting on my money back they issued an RMA.
Their policy is when you send the item, you are refunded. This is not true,
they have to receive it first, then you are PARTIALLY refunded. Not a full refund.
See pic of email.
Bottom line - terrible service, can't be believed.

Fixing A Dead LiPo Battery
This involves a Zippy 3 cell 25C Series 200mAh battery and the Turnigy Compact Charger E3.
I was using my Zippy 3 Cell battery to power my string of LEDs that I use over my work bench.
I forgot to unplug it before going home. The next day I see the LEDs are very faint, but still on.
I disconnect my Zippy 3 Cell LiPo battery and check the voltage. It's 7.4 V. I think, oh well, I wasted this one. I put it in my Turnigy Compact Charger E3 2S/3S charger. I bought both from HobbyKing by the way.
The charger flashes the 3 red LEDs stating that the battery is dead and can't be recharged.
So I thought, well let's charge it up another way and see if it takes a charge.
First, I put the battery on an area that was immune to damage from fire in case the Zippy exploded or caught fire. I hooked it up to my el-cheapo HY1803D DC power supply by Mastech.
I fed about the same voltage of the battery (7.4V) into the large gauge wires (the load side, not the wires that hook up to the charger.) I slowly raised the voltage with the amperage potentiometer at minimum.
I could see amperage jumping around between 1 A and 0 A. I tried to maintain about 30 mA. It didn't take long before I slowly raised it up to about 9 V with minimal current. I then hooked it up to the Turnigy charger, and it started charging again.
Next day I came into the shop, and it was fully charged.
One LiPo saved.
Hopefully this article will save more LiPo's from going into the landfill.
