Re: Movies on iTunes
Apple lie! :-) http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2666?locale=en_AU Even their own support document for Australia and New Zealand says 48 hours. Might be worth a few of us sending Apple a feedback sheet highlighting that rentals here should be 48 hours. Seeya Rod!

Re: Boot up sequence: firewire
Jude and Bob Thank you for comments on this issue. Comments from users who have had trouble with firewire point to the port on the computer being the weakness. I have not used a HD powered from the mains but I suspect the olden days approach would be even more relevant in that situation. For myself, I'll err on the side of caution. Thank you both. Merv Personally for my own protection i AVOID connecting and disconnecting the firewire cable to a powered up external firewire enclosure . Ah yes, sorry, I assumed when someone plugs something into a computer that they turn it on after plugging it in. What I was saying was that the computer doesn't have to be turned on only after the device is attached. In the olden days one would turn on external HDs and printers before booting up the computer. With USB that seems to have gone by the wayside. However, in a recent topic on WAMUG dealing with external HDs and firewire a remark/question was made or put regarding having connected and started up the external firewire HD before booting the computer. Is this the recommended approach? I use a portable firewire connected HD for my backups (powered by the computer). I just plug in and update. Could I be courting disaster?

Re: Recurring 'to do' in Apple Mail ?
Sounds like a cracker of an idea Eugene. Will run with that I think. Good thinking! Cheers, Steven On 14/8/08 7:26 AM, Eugene [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Steve, I think you have a different interpretation of the TO DO function. This is simply a list of items of things you need to do. They aren't date specific. If you want to have something that periodically reminds you to do things without appearing on your calendar I suggest you do the following. Create a new calendar (LHS column) and call it TO DO if you wish. If you need this reminder every Tuesday put the first item in Tuesday and ask it to repeat weekly. Set an alarm to this event, wither a sound, sound with message or e- mail which reminds you of the event Hide the calendar so that it isn't visible on your screen This will remind you of the TO DO event every week. Regards, Eugene On 14/08/2008, at 5:35 AM, Steven Knowles wrote: Bob, Erin, Eugene - thanks for the tips. But none of them seem to do the trick. I understand how I can use a repeat option with regards to a Calendar event. That's no problem. However, I'm referring to the To Do Items which appear in a vertical pane to the right of my calendar. Immediately below the Spotlight search field. If I click on one of those items and Get Info, a box comes up with options to change due date etc, but there is no repeat option. If I add a new 'To Do' option, same deal - no repeat option. How do you go about a creating a repetitive To Do Item? Example, let's say I want to check the letter box every day, and I want to remind myself to do that. I don't want it in my Calendar, because I don't want to have to do it at the same time each day - I just want it in my To Do list. But I don't want to have to add the entry every day. I just want to have a To Do item which pops up each day. (BTW, just an example - I don't really want to do that!). Same as the Task function in Entourage allows you to do.

So for instance, if there something I needed to each and every Thursday, Entourage could accommodate that. With iCal and the To Do functionality, there doesn't seem to be a recurring option.
