Re: Birthday Reminders/iCal
I didn't realise the address book held birthday information but I've been adding events labeled birthdays/all day events to iCal and having them repeat yearly forever. Ruben Hi Stuart, I find it's great, does exactly what I want. It will expire after 3 weeks unless you purchase a registration code to register Dates to iCal. You register from the 'Dates to iCal' application it takes you to Paypal it only costs £3.00 GBP = $7.07 AUD I find it well worth the price I haven't forgotten anyone's Birthday/Anniversary since having it ;-) After installing Dates to iCal2, Start Dates to iCal 2. Set the preferences you want. Click Activate from the General tab. Quit Dates to iCal. iCal can become unresponsive for a few seconds after Dates to iCal is activated or deactivated. This is due to iCal updating the changes to its database. You may prefer to stop iCal before modifying Dates to iCal's settings, especially if you have a large number of dates stored in Address Book. I found it best to QUIT iCal and then wait a while before Opening iCal, so you give it time to update the changes to the database.

iPhoto difficulty
I am running iPhoto 7.1.4 with 10.5.5 and use iPhoto Library to manage a number of libraries. In one library a small number of the photos display with a couple of white lines across the thumbnails. The full size pictures are fine, the white lines display when the photo is first expanded, then disappear. The affected few thumbnails are contiguous and the lines seem independent of the size of the thumbnail. Cause and solution, please? I am sure Ronni will have an instant answer for this one!

Severin Hi Severin, I think you need to rebuild the Thumbnails in that iPhoto Library. Have a backup of this Library just in case anything goes 'not according to plan'. 1. Quit iPhoto. 2. While holding the Command and Option keys on the keyboard, open iPhoto. 3. A dialogue box appears, select the option to Rebuild the photos' small thumbnails. OR Rebuild all the photos thumbnails (this may take awhile) Click Rebuild.

Communal email inbox ?
Could I please pick the communal brain of wamug and ask people how they would set things up if they wanted to create a communal email inbox, either on a multiple Mac / Windows wireless network, or if necessary involving the internet? I haven't been able to find a way of allowing 3rd parties to access a particular email inbox on my Apple Mail client, so I'll assume that's not possible. Since I have a Time Capsule for backups, I don't suppose there is a way of using Time Capsule as some kind of mail server is there? If necessary I could buy some additional hardware, if that was going to provide a good solution - but I'm afraid the whole concept of severs, despite having a very basic understanding of what they do, is new to me. Ideally I would like multiple users to be able to access a standalone version of Apple Mail and the relevant inbox. In previous environments, I've worked in a Windows Outlook environment, and apart from my own personal email inbox, there has been public folders as well which anyone on the network could access. Does the same kind of concept exist in an Apple Mail environment? Because that would probably work. If so, how do I go about setting it up? I'm guessing I'm trying to move things from a couple of individual Macs in a wireless network environment, to a more corporate environment, with access to public mailboxes from both local machines, but also from the other side of the world (which I presume will involve the internet, or 3rd party servers, or something). I'm obviously confused, but would welcome a few thoughts and ideas thrown at me. There are probably a million solutions, most of them quite simple, but I'm not sure I know where to start.

Hi Chris I haven't tried this but: http://timelog.en.softonic.com/mac http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/21723 Managing time spent on projects is essential, even more so if your work freelance. TimeLog is built to work with iCal, to keep track of time spent on different projects. With an interface at crossroads between iTunes and iCal, TimeLog gives you an immediate view of your different projects. TimeLog allows you to create smart lists to better organize your projects and can analyze them based on all criteria like billing, time or project type. You'll also notice that it features automatic timer and billing, so you don't have to go around worrying about these.

Re: Communal email inbox ?
Hi Steven, As a general rule, communal mailboxes are set up by your e-mail *server*. Provided you are connected to your mail server with IMAP/Exchange/anything-except-POP, and provided that shared folders have configured for your accounts in your IMAP/Exchange server, you can have access to those folders with Apple Mail. I've never initiated shared folder permissions via Apple Mail, but it's certainly something that can be done by a mail server administrator.

Re: importing applications
On 03/10/2008, at 8:31 AM, Martin Sulkowski wrote: hi everyone is there a difference wether I install an application in the harddrive or applications? If yes what is the difference? Martin It very much depends on the application. Without exception, those applications which come as part of Mac OS X (iCal, Mail, Address Book, Font Book, etc) MUST be installed in the Applications folder and must remain there, they must be located at the top level of the folder (ie, not in a subfolder), and must not be renamed. This also applies to many other Apple-supplied applications, such as the members of the iLife suite. One exception to all of this is iWork, whose applications CAN be placed inside a subfolder. The principle reason for this is that Mac OS X uses a system of document verification called Receipts. It's instructive to have a look inside /Library/Receipts on your hard drive. Receipts are package files that are saved on your hard drove every time an installer does its work, and is a repository for a list of the files and resources which were installed for that application. When an application such as Apple Mail is updated (as part of a system update, for example), the presence of a Receipt package is checked, and the information it contains is used to increase the efficiency of the update (which files need to be replaced, etc). PLEASE NOTE: If you move an Apple-supplied application out of the Applications folder, the Receipt file will not know, and future updates will not work as expected, if at all. This is very important to understand. Most other applications you will ever install into Mac OS X can be installed pretty much wherever you like, whether they have a Receipt file or not. Generally, applications fall under two broad classifications: those which require an Installer and those which do not (are installed simply by dragging to their location). In some cases an Installer will offer you the chance to specify the installation location; others will not. Some of this latter group also require the application to remain in the Applications Folder, although this is rare.

We cannot help you more if we don't know if you have tried all these suggestions, or what you have done to try to rectify this problem. Rod Blitvich suggested: I eventually wondered whether it was something to do with our router which was few years old. I finally bought a new router (from Daniel) and guess what?

Check your Network Configuration settings in System Preferences Network - that you have all the correct settings in your ISP's DNS numbers. Restart your Modem/Router. and You have checked your Network Settings and every setting, DNS numbers, no proxies, etc are as before this problem happened? You have checked that Parental Controls has not been turned on? You have restarted your Modem? You have restarted your Mac? You have repaired permissions? After doing all above, you have tried the NAB Site again and the same problem exists? You could try Starting in Safe Mode after having started up in Safe Mode, restart normally. To start up into Safe Mode, do this: 1. Be sure the computer is shut down. 2. Press the power button. 3. Immediately after you hear the startup tone, press and hold the Shift key. Tip: The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone but not before. 4. Release the Shift key when you see the grey Apple and progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear). During the startup in Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you will see Safe Boot on the login window - Robert Howells suggested: Have you cleared cookies .

AppleWorks 6 page setup
Running an intel iMac on 10.5.5 I can't remember when the problem with AppleWorks 6.2.9 started on the iMac but here it is: I opened an existing document and then selected Page Setup. Made my choice and clicked OK. The contents of the document seemed to slip to the left and leave me with a dark grey page. At the time I was using an OKIPage 8 printer that is on my wife's iBook G4 on 10.4.11 power PC. There is no driver for the OKI on intel. Assuming this was the problem I tried the same procedure for the Epson Stylus C61 which has a driver on my computer and is connected to my computer. Same result. Thinking the existing document might be corrupted in some way I tried a new document but got the same result. Suggestions appreciated.
