    Time synchronization Windows-OSX

    That was an interesting idea - my PC knowledge being close to zero! I stopped the clock services as indicated and tried the virtual machine again. Between unsetting clock synchronization in VMware tools and stopping clock synchronization in windows I get a situation where the time...

    Time synchronization Windows-OSX

    Hello, I use VMware 1.1 on OSX 10.5 and use windows NT SP2 virtual machines. I am trying to stop the synchronization of the time between OSX and Virtual machine. I have unset the VMware tools setting to "synchronize clocks" but when the virtual machine is opened I can obeserve the PC...

    dotMac becoming MobileMe

    Point taken, and maybe I am not a specialist. Is it possible to dissociate web site hosting from email hosting - for the same domain name?

    dotMac becoming MobileMe

    Satcomer I followed your links and am not sure they relate to what I mentionned in my thread. Maybe I was not clear... What I would like is to have the .MAC (or whatever account) accept and manage my emails as name@<mydomain>.com in place of <name>@mac.com. If I set up the .MAC web site to...

    I can type the password...

    This is a strange one: Every time I need to enter an administrator user/password (like for example to install software), the Keyboard viewer automatically appears when the login window is presented. This has started since about a week, it is a real nuissance and I would like not to have...

    I want to save all my files and reinstall OS X.

    If you plan to upgrade to 10.5 (Leopard) you may extend Virgiltracy advice and buy the Time Capsule. This way you can temporarily use it as a HD whilst doing the OS upgrade. Then use time capsule with time machine and get the backups done automatically.

Then drag/drop the pages from one document to the other. Don't forget to save when you are finished. However, if formatting seems to be a problemyou are...

    VM Fusion 2 better than Parallels 3?

    One unfortunate aspect of VMware is that the virtual machine file cannot be archived using tie machine.

    iMac cracked screen!!!

    I think you will find out that changing the screen is not that easy and is not a plug-an-play, some adjusting required. Anyone know of/have done a screen change. Any links to DIY on the web?

    TimeMachine does not backup everything!

    Hello VirgilTracy, It helps and confirms other input by Mikuro. Seems the only way today is to setup a script that forcibly removes what VMware imposes. Although the script is easy to write, it is quite impractical because a user should run it every time he closes a virtual machine and before...

    TimeMachine does not backup everything!

    Point taken Fryke but wouldn't you say that when someone activates TimeMachine it is for an obvious reason : To get backups done - whatever the archive disk capacity maybe. By de-activating TimeMachine backups, VMware is actually tampering with my system setup WITHOUT any form of warning...

    Finally found the world's biggest idiot! (PC'ing his G5...)

    I think this young man has a serious frustration of not being able to tell parents what he really likes and dislikes. I am saddened for parents who actually made a marvelous gift to their child and child did not appreciate it for what it was.

    iPod Touch is too cool for traveling.

    Yes... Arrived in Amsterdam at the train station late at night and could not find a cab or someone to direct me to my hotel. In comes iPod Touch, gave me a map and I walked. Took me to the front door no problem. By the way, Amsterdam is a nice town at night.

    installing iwork '08 problem

    Based on what you say, seems that you are not installing iWork but trying to run it directly in the "read-only" drive it is stored on. Try installing or copying the application to the hard disk then double click to run it. This is a tentative answer based on what you indicate, could be totally...

    TimeMachine does not backup everything!

    Ok here is a status. I have installed version 1.1.2 (which claims to solve this issue). UNFORTUNATELY it does not solve the issue. TimeMachine will not backup VM virtual machine files because the file attribute (com.apple.metadata:com_apple_backup_excludeItem) is still set after a clean...

    TimeMachine does not backup everything!

    I will check. However, this does not preclude the absolute unconsideration of VMware to wantingly activate file attributes that block TimeMachine at statup and forgetting to reset them at virtual machine shutdown. This is just incomplete, and outright low quality programming, furthermore as a...
