  • Hey Saud, That seems like a different issue. You may wish to start another thread with an appropriate subject heading. Also, if possible, you should provide as many details as you can about the problem. Although it does seem as if there's not …

    in US iPhone-in-UK Power Adaptor Comment by nius November 2007

    in Spotlight Default Return Press Comment by nius February 2007
  • Thank you very much. I appreciate that. Incredibly speedy. Both solutions worked. The interesting thing is that I did not need to change the defaults with my two year old iBook. And I needed to reboot after changing the keyboard settings. …

    in Animated GIFs as Desktop Background Comment by nius September 2005
  • Oh wow! Thanks. That's very neat. Who would have thought, eh? Another quick question - and now I know I am just being lazy - but is it possible to close the iBook without it turning off or going into sleep mode? Essentially, I would like the i…
