What I like changes over time. In summers, definitely swimming (I'm not a fan of cold water). All year around running is fun (when I'm not too lazy). As is being owned by cats. I'm rarely seen without a book - analog books usually. Digital ones don't cut it for me. Analog ones are easier to...

I think it's good they have both iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S as options, and not just 5. I'm more than happy with my iPhone 4S hand-me-down model. And even my sister just got herself a new iPhone - 4S as 5 was out of stock, and it still does more than everything she needs for quite a while. :) and of...

Another interesting article worth linking here http://9to5mac.com/2012/11/05/use-sophos-antivirus-watch-out/ So update if you were using Sophos, and if you're not, you might want to consider some AV that reacts a bit faster to openly reported exploits.

There are a lot of internal jokes about the guy whose fruit the Apple maps was by the way...

Your computer should be fine with Mac OS X 10.6, aka Snow Leopard. Here, check from the models from 2006 to find the exact one you have, and then see what is the newest OS it can handle. http://www.apple-history.com/mb The newer the easier it will be to get. So upgrade to the newest your Mac can...

JavaScript was as default, but it's off now. I did turn all new pages and tabs open blank, and that seems to work around it. So with that, no unwanted refresh.

What format are the files in? What extension? .rm? .wav? Something else? I think your Mac is trying to open the audio files as unix files since it doesn't have anything associated with the type/extension. If you can find the extension, we'll find what app we should use for them. Any idea what...

Where Firefox stores its user data (bookmarks, passwords etc) Finding your profile without opening Firefox Open the Library folder for your Mac user account: (OS X 10.6 or previous) Click the Finder icon in the dock. Your home folder will be selected, (usually the name of your Mac user...

In Mac OS X 10.8, even the ignored ones should still be nagging for you in Updates when you go to Software Update (and it takes you to App Store). In earlier versions of Mac OS X, go to Software Update, and choose Reset Ignored Updates from the Software Update menu. Click Install to install all...

Those are sandbox errors. Looks like you're not the only one having those with Mail.app in 10.8. Some of the ideas in that link may work for you; namely try renaming com.apple.mail.plist to com.apple.mail.plist.bak and the same for com.apple.coresymbolicationd. Plus clearing the caches with...

I mean the pages that I'm not viewing now. Such as the most visited sites that you might have showing when you open a new window in Safari. It used to be possible to tell Safari to not load stuff without your consent (at least when the RSS feeds were added years ago, whichever Safari that...

Console might have something. (/Applications/Utilities) Like if something was plugged in, connected, disconnected. But not necessarily if your files would have been sent to the bad guy in webmail in private mode. If you know the date and time you suspect the issue would have happened, and it's...

Hint:

What are the specs of this Mac where it happens? Which Mac/year, OS details + amount of RAM and HD/free HD?

Have you by any chance used anything like OnyX or other utility tools? Some of them, or at least one of them (that I don't remember the name of) had that in some option. I had the same problem a long time ago in my 10.3 machine - I had run one of these utilities, and didn't notice or remember...

I did have an AppleScript somewhere for opening the same application in different languages on the same time. (Practical for exactly what I needed it at the time, to be able to compare it in different localizations) But I can't remember where the script is now, whether it's in some old hard...

Many videos in Youtube allow viewing them incorporated to some other site. So verify for each of the clips you'd like use whether they will show. If they don't (or if the clip's uploader decides to edit the setting later), there's a message about the video not being able to be viewed remotely...

The graphics while doing fast user switching could look sketchy if you don't have enough memory. If there are a lot of apps open and processing something for one user, and then the second one has e.g. 10,000 user installed fonts and 6000 files on their desktop and 20 apps launching at login...
