  • Well, I hope Apple didn't made a whole update of their OS just to give us the App Store crap. What are the other changes in Snow Leopard ? This page is blank (from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1343) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4459 Br…
  • Where can we find a complete list of changes in 10.6.6, appart the App Store application ? I tried the App Store app, and really it's lame in its current state ! MacUpdate and VersionTracker are MUCH better, when you want to browse apps. I don'…

  • I don't agree with the opinions expressed here. I, too, was concerned with the "right time" or "wrong time" to buy a new laptop, some times ago. After a long and painfull hesitation period that lasted **several** months, I finally ended with a n…
  • Spark is a freeware keyboard utility (shortcut manager) which I found extremely usefull : http://www.shadowlab.org/Software/so....php?sign=Sprk Despite the fact it's an old beta version only (3.0beta9, 2008), it's totally stable on my system (…
  • Well, it's a bit hard to explain (my native language is French). I don't see anything related to attachements, in the Mail preferences.
  • No, I'm just using the standard Mail of OS X. Single account. Like I've said, quiting Mail solves the problem. But it's a pain in the a** to do this each time I'm sending an email with some attachement and that I want to trash the original file…

  • It's happening with simple emails. I try to empty the trashcan, but the Finder tells me the trashcan can't be emptied because there's a file in use in it. Well, the culprit file is there, but isn't (or shouldn't be) in use anymore, since the email…
  • I fully agree with you, Marvin. I always though that Apple's way to keyboard shortcuts is ackward, unatural and ineffective. I don't understand how and why they totally scraped it, since we already got some good shareware systems to do simple and …
  • I tried to add a service, but it doesn't work at all (the service do nothing, while the script itself appears to be okay). I don't understand what is going on. Geez, why is it so complicated just to open a folder using a keyboard shortcut ? The…
  • Well, I now have a problem and I don't know how to solve it : The script is very simple and just bring the Finder to front and open a folder : Quote: tell application "Finder" \tactivate \topen POSIX file "/Users/userName/Applications/aFold…
  • Okay, I'm beginning to understand now. My first script-app is working exactly as I wanted to.
  • Thanks for the reply. As for the path, I'm not sure yet. Also, the script should bring the folder or the file to front. EDIT : Currently, I don't understand how Automator is working. All I want to do is to create a small app that open a spe…
  • Okay, the "issue" is solved. After a battery "recalibration", the charge is now back to 100% Apparently, we're supposed to recalibrate the battery about once a month, to optimize its charge capacity. I'm learning ....

  • Thanks guys. I must add that I'm new to the portable world . I used several large desktop Macs before (Mac IIci, dual G4, eMac, dual G5, Mac mini...), and never bothered about the internal temperature in their case. But then, the portables are …

  • Thanks Marvin. To me, security of data on the SSD is the most important thing. Access speed (read) is also very important. I don't mind much if the writes are a bit slow. What is the current price range for high quality 256 GB SSD ? EDIT …
