I would be surprised that the accountants wanted to go Mac simply for the accounting software. The economics are not there. So swaring off Mac big time, is probably hurting them more than anyone else. The issue here is, don't expect software to run on different OS platforms in the same way...

I am surprised that the QB pro for mac is so weak in functionality. Please don't take this question negatively but are you sure that you have the latest release? This may avoid the unfortunate fight with parallels.

Ooops, Last point, if the mac you wish to sell is not so old, you may want to buy a 10.5 license and reformat the disk using 10.5. A 10.5 mac is worth more than a 10.4. So this should up the price of your mac to cover the costs of the license purchase. So in the end it is break even.

It all depends to how pervasive you want your cleanup to be. If you really have a need for protecting your personal information, reformat the disk or change HD as proposed by SATCOMER or GREP. I would opt for changing the disk and would physically destroy the disk with information...

So here is the result of my test which involves putting my timemachine disk on wifi. This disk contains backup of mac A and then using the timemachine+alt "browse other time machine disks" on mac B. Both A and B are in 10.5.2. Timemachine of mac B is stopped. Using mac B I get: 1. list of...

I had this problem also - after install of 10.5.1. Its a persmissions issue but fix permissions did not resolve the issue. The only solution I found was to create a new account from blank. However, =>> do not just delete your account, because the files are still there <<= You can...

It is a guess, but normally apple menu options are quite explicit. I'll see if I can set something up... ugh will have to do full backup of a mac before I can test... that will take a day... but maybe worth it.

Hello, Has anyone noticed this and tested what it does. I do not have the necessary setup (2 time machine backups) to try it out. 1. In preferences/time machine set the "show time machine status in the menu bar" 2. Then click the time machine icon in the menu bar and keeping the mouse...

I got told off by a convert of mine, apparently I did not convert him quickly enough !!! Upside down world!

several statements in the press point to an ever increasing percentage of college students opting for mac. So in 4 to 5 years we should expect freshly graduated students will seek jobs that are "mac-friendly". Problem is I see most blue chip company CTOs in Switzerland sneer at mac. I...

About my Air... When I ordered it I was unsure whether to but the external DVD drive and eventually opted not to spend the money. Well, I can confirm that the remote disk works perfectly. Backup through time machine, via Wifi, is however a lengthy matter. Think its related to timemachine not...

My iPod touch does not have an apple, nor a command, nor an option, nor a command, nor a function key. I don't miss any (except - yes - the apple key). My iPod touch has a world key - simplicity at its best. Thank-you apple

guess this is a mac only forum... :(

Sorry forgot to mention, I do have the tools installed.

Hi Giaguara Concerning whether I am using XP as a normal VMware virtual machine or as a Virtual PC import. I did not know this difference existed. I installed XP using the VMware quick installer and XP disks. Maybe this can help. On the ipconfig, I had already checked and the IP seems...

Hello, I'm wondering if someone can help me with this one. I use virtual PC using VMware Fusion and would like to connect MS-Explorer in the virtual PC to the internet connected to the iMac. I looked at the documentation and activated the Settings/removable devices/network as NAT. This...

Just like on the other macbooks that have a trackpad, you click...

Two things... Went to a business meeting with my document pouch, asked my prospect if he wanted a demo of my software, he looked at me intrigued - where is the computer ? - and I pulled out the macbook air. I use virtual machines to run specific legacy software. It feels just great to...

Guess this beats the wifi-gps capabilities of the iPod Touch. I may just become jealous. You may wish to hide/protect that precious gift of yours, people may out in the dark ready to make a run for it... just joking...
