    Mail.app - messages disappear after download

    Before I finally go to iCloud, I have started using Apple's Mail.app for my mail. I have set up Mail for all my e-mail accounts (POP & IMAP) and I'm running it alongside Eudora. All the POP accounts download to both Eudora and Mail, and stay there. But my me.com accounts on IMAP appear in...

    iCloud Panic!

    One other thing. I have some web pages to transfer. I have a free option at the moment, but I would like one that allows others to see the pages without a lot of adverts appearing.

    iCloud Panic!

    Ah! Thanks! Something to read. :) I missed this post somehow. I usually go in through "New posts" and this got lost. Confused. I'll let you know how I get on.

    iCloud Panic!

    As usual, I have left it to the last minute to do anything about the end of Mobile Me, and a move to iCloud. Anyone got a quick link to a guide? I looked at the Apple one, but it's hardly impartial! My main worry is losing Eudora and a move to Mail. But I'm also thinking of going for...

    Can I read a small 80mm CD in a Mac?

    Thanks for the suggestions. I'm looking at this Dynamode one, but the local PC World were out of stock last night. So ordered online. We'll see. I'm expecting it to be a Windows program. Maybe the manual is text, but there's a bit of software too I believe. I would run this on the laptop...

    Can I read a small 80mm CD in a Mac?

    I only have two Macs. A fairly new 27 inch iMac and a 2007 2.2GHz MacBook. Both have slot load disc drives. However, I have been sent a new bit of electronics which has the instruction manual on a small 80 mm (8 cm) CD. Is there any way I can read this on either of my Macs? If not is...

    need to resize pic

    Use Preview. Open picture in Preview. In the Tools Menu, you will find "Adjust Size...". I use this all the time. You can also save it in a different format if you need to.

    Backup iTunes for iPhone

    There's an app called DiskAid that I use to save files on my iPhone. The later versions also save SMS messages. http://www.digidna.net/products/diskaid You can see the files on the phone and you should be able to save the existing messages, upgrade and then paste them back to the phone if you...

    iWeb - Copying sites to a different user?

    For a few years now my wife and I have shared the iWeb application. The main edit page is cluttered - the side bar showing the sites is crowded. I have set myself up another account as a new user. When I open iWeb as the new user it is empty, which is what I want to see. But now I want...

    excell formula problem

    Not sure how it would affect DIV/0 but I recently had a major problem importing an Excel file. My problem lay with the base date for counting the days that calculate dates. Some versions use 1904 as "Day zero" and others use 1900. So all my dates were 4 years out after transfer. But I got no...

    Irritating charging problem.

    The iPhone reset is what I was doing. I cures the problem until the next time. It's odd. because the charging indicator shows the charge and %age correctly if I put it on charge when there is a good bit of charge in it. The problem only happens once the battery either discharges completely or...

    Irritating charging problem.

    At the moment it's an irritating problem. Is this a symptom of something more serious? If the charge on my iPhone 3GS with fully updated software gets down to a very low level and I put it on charge, the display shows it's charging. But if I come back to it after a while - say a couple of...

    add remove programs how?

    Drag the icon in the Applications folder to the trash. That'a all you really need to do. There may be some preference files left, but you can usually ignore them. If you have a complex application, did the installer come with an Uninstaller? Is so, use that.
