    TimeCapsule - what is it up to?

    TimeCapsule is a little upsetting. Some time ago I posted a thread stating that the files backup drive was somehow locked only in read-only mode. So, I actually had to delete all the backups and start again. The logic of deleting backups on a backup system makes me question the logic of the...

    is it me or mobileME

    I'm trying to enter my domain on mobile me and my domain is refused. The domain exists, and I have actually copy/pasted it just in case. The only thing I can say is that either mobile me does not accept national domains (.IT, .CH, .FR) or does not accept hyphens "-". Has anyone encountered...

    printscreen in iTouch

    I don't know if this is common knowledge but it is for me. There is a printscreen feature in v2 of iTouch software. Just press the on/off switch and simultaneously double click the home button. The screen flashes white and the printscreen file is placed in the iPhoto local pictures. I...

    Why do everything the same day

    We have all read the reports of apple systems failing just the very day that iPhone 3G appears and also V2 of iPod/iPhone OS, and maybe mobile me.... My comment is, why do everything the same day. I mean, where would the harm be to have delivered v2 of OS about a week ago, iPhone 3G today and...

    TimeMachine "read-only"

    I am starting this thread because I have seen many people with similar issues on other sites and no real good solution proposed. The problem relates to timemachine suddenly being unable to acces the backup disk (in my case timecapsule 1Gb) because the disk is apparently in read-only access...

    Someone tell mail that internet is not always there...

    I am writing because I am a little dismayed at Apple Mail. This application that does multiple things, including RSS integration, etc. does not seem to be able to manage more simple things such as sending mail from a portable on a not so good internet connection (typically via wifi). I say...

    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...

    TimeMachine does not backup everything!

    I have just noticed that Time Machine does not seem to want to backup certain big files I have (such as VMware virtual machines 5gb files). I have checked the options setup in TimeMachine and there is no setting here that could imply that these files would not be backed-up. I have made a...

    Printer setup

    I am writing because I believe the present approach to printing is just not user friendly. Most often than not any image printing results in multiple prints because something goes wrong. And honestly the "preiunter setup" and then "print" options should be only one (this is the case in...

    dotMAC mail question

    I've noticed that it is now possible to use a private domain name in iWEB. I was wondering if this feature also extends to the email addresses? Has anyone tried this? I ask this because the "trial" dotMAC account does is not a full featured version. :-(

    Compress PDF

    I am writing here about the dis-appearance of "Compress PDF" option from the print-preview. This feature was available in Tiger and dropped in Leopard. Actually there is a compress PDF feature (either via an applescript that can be downloaded) or using Quartz filter "reduce filesize"...

    MAIL program does multiple drafts

    I use leopards mail program and note that the mail generates multiple copies of the mails I am writing as "drafts". This is a real nuissance as it generates a ridiculous network traffic that is of no use. Is there anyway of preventing mail from saving mails being written as drafts?

    Mail making multiple copies of mail being written

    I have noticed that the Mail application will continuously store a copy of any mail I am writing and store them in drafts. This is a nuissance because it fills up my mailbox with rediculous duplicates. Has anyone seen this also and found a way of telling Mail application to keep only the...
