    Tiger bug list. hopefully could be helpful

    I've been confused by the weather widget too... it didnt' seem to want to change between towns. I've just discovered that you have to enter the town name, and then press "enter" before clicking on the "done" button. It then gives a list of similar names and asks you to choose one... It...

    Looking for Entourage alternative

    Sorry, chornbe, but no-one who has a personal fortune of $46 billion can sell a flawed product without expecting to be accused of being anything less than angelic... ;) There's simply no excuse. The only time my PB crashes is when I'm working on something in Office... "Something is...

    TopCalculettePro

    I agree with mwphoto... TopCalculette Pro is amazing... In my business I often work in multiple currencies and to be able to see them all at the same time is fantastic - such a time saver! I'm not sure, texanpenguin, what you mean by "download" - but the "update" button is very important...

    Synergy - Keyboard and Mouse Control

    Hi ipsyd Thanks for your suggestion... I agree that it would be annoying if Synergy automatically altered the files without permission, but I_would_like the option to let it do it; after all, it's downloaded it already - why not store it for me? I've got 286 albums ripped so far, and I'm...

    Mail SMTP Error....strange....

    In Dubai, in order to get on the internet, you have to set up an account with the local ISP, Etisalat... Obviously you then get a username, password and the details of the SMTP server... However, I don't want to use the username I set up because it's not my business e-mail address, but if...

    Why Skype sucks!

    anim8r - I didn't have a problem signing up for Skype, but I do have a problem buying SkypeOut! I buy credits for me, someone who works with me, and my wife. Skype only appears to let me buy credit (with the same credit card) for one account a day - how strange is that?! Good luck...
