Bogus email: ANZ
Hi This afternoon I received an email purporting to be from the ANZ bank saying that I had two unread emails. It also said 100 emails only would by held for me, the recent 100. To read the emails I had to click on a link, which I did. The link asked for my username and password, so I stopped and went no further. I phoned the ANZ and read the letter to them. They confirmed my suspicions that it was bogus. There suggestion was to delete the email and run a virus scan and then get back to them. In the mean time they would put a hold on access to my account. Did that, found nothing. Phoned and got new access details. Thought I should alert ANZ users in WAMUG of this scam.

Final Cut
Afternoon all, Am I correct in assuming that the current version of what was Final Cut Pro is now Final Cut Express 4.0?

Re: Final Cut
Evening, Not exactly, separate ideologies of same software. FCP has been part of Final Cut Studio for a while now even though it holds it's own version number currently FCP 7.?. Very much a Professional product with industry standards built in, etc.. FCE is basically an upgrade to iMovie with some editing benefits of FCP mainly to do with input devices and exportable files via a compressor style product although reduced somewhat in offerings. LiveType is included I think not sure, but yes good value if all the bells and whistles of FCS are not needed. It will edit and transpose to many formats and output devices, how well compared to FCP not sure, but would be very close Higher quality formats like Red, 2k, and 4k would not be supported?

Re: Problems with deleting/trashing messages
This used to be a fix sometimes for either Mail (or another email client). If you have another message you don't mind getting rid of, then highlight the good message, then highlight the bad message(s). Then once they are highlighted, delete them the normal way and fingers crossed they should go, and you should be able to delete them as per normal. I had to do that a couple of times for clients, but can't remember if it was Mail or Entourage. :o) Hope that works.

Mac laptops and firewire

Restoring lost Address Book Contacts data from Time Machine
Hello, I am running 10.5.8 on an iMac G5 All my AddressBook contacts have gone. I realised things were going wrong when I was syncing my iPhone and found no data in Address Book on my iMac. Now it's wiped all the Contacts from the iPhone too. They were there this morning on the iPhone. I made a change one contact on the iPhone so I know that was fine at that time. The iMac and the iPhone sync with MobileMe - gone from there too. :-( I have Time Machine. :-) I have gone to /Users/yourusername/Library/Application Support/Address Book and restored the Address Book folder from mid yesterday afternoon when I know Address Book was working as I was sending emails from Mail and Address Book was putting in names. Still no data showing up :-( Any tips? Fortunately I DO have Entourage that I was using until a month or so ago, so can resurrect my data from there if all else fails, but it's out of date so is my least preferred option. Things are getting desperate when I rely on Entourage!!

Re: Restoring lost Address Book Contacts data from Time Machine
Thanks Alex, That's very clever. Unfortunately the only data that is showing is from end December 2009. My Entourage data is more recent, so I'll use that, but why would the Address Book data not be current? That seems odd to me.

Permissions Problem

Re: Permissions Problem
Hi Joe, Preferences error can not load PTHPasteboard This sounds like a PTH problem. It's likely that other customers are affected. I suggest you contact PTH directly about their product, or see if it is covered by their online help. While you are usually welcome to move your PTH preferences to the trash to resolve the problem, you would of course loose any personalisation of your product! I note that PTH provides the following online help: 9. PTHPasteboard PRO launches and then quits a few seconds later, how do I fix this? There's a file in Library/Application Support/PTHPasteboard of your Home directory called Main.Buffer. Delete that and relaunch.

Thank you James. My problem was I had downloaded a 10.5 up grade. I used appzaper to remove the app and down loaded the proper 10.4.11 app. and all is well.

Hi all Sorry if this has been covered before - can't seem to hit the right search words in the archive. My wife needs to buy Quarkxpress for her - voluntary - design work for a society. She thought of buying via friends in the US rather than squandering nearly double the amount here in Australia. The trouble is, I have a feeling that when you 'activate' the programme it tells Quark where you are in the world and won't let you do so. And there are no refunds!
