  • Not intentionally: the reason I started screwing with the password was I lost my signal and couldn't find the airport base station again. I called earthlink/time warner and they determined the problem was on my end. So I reset the base station, i…
  • BTW, check out this Applenews post from August: http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=1959. There's also been a history of Apple rolling out devices at the Macworld following the one the product was expected at, as well as on-time. I've been ou…

  • BTW, what were you "rubbing in" in your original post on this topic? I assume something happened at your Applestore visit, and you'd written about it in another post.

  • Quote: Originally posted by aplnub I turn the screen down low, mute the sound and be sure that all the programs I am going to use are open before I unplug. You mean "closed"?
  • Quote: Originally posted by aplnub I was back in the Apple store on 5th Ave. in NYC today. Yes, I want to rub it in all I can. Before I get started, the keyboards on those things rocks. I wish I could replace my 12" iBook keyboard with the MB …

  • Ok, that was close! About those male, er mail problems: 1) Is there any way to select the default email account, when there are multiple accounts, when you're sending a message? Mail's instructiuons make it sound like you can't. 2) Once you…

  • It worked! Now i'm leaving AI, and not logging out. If the problem gets duplicated when I come back to post again, we'll know the source, if not the actual cause. Shit, i shouldn't announce that. Some 15 year-old will get the bright idea of attem…
