Re: iCal entries keep disappearing
Hi Steven, I don't know if you are aware of it, but MobileMe will cease to operate on 30 June, 2012. If you want to continue synchronizing your Mac and iPhone calendar after that date, you will need to find an alternative.

Re: iCal entries keep disappearing
Yes to all of those, Ronni. I did a little more exploring of iCal / Lion / MobielMe sync issues and it seems there's a plague of problems. Seems to me a move to iCloud is going to be the only long term solution. Which will mean an iPhone hardware upgrade. Might not be such a bad thing to be forced to do ... my iPhone 3G has slowed to a crawl these days. Hopefully the iPhone 5 will be out before MobileMe disappears. An option is that I access Calendar via www.me.com/calendar - at initial glance that seems to be more reliable.

Re: iCal entries keep disappearing
That rings a bell Carlo, but thanks for refreshing me on this anyway. It basically puts a timeline around an iPhone upgrade ... and hopefully by then Apple starts making some forward steps with Lion.

Re: Videobox and Lion
Hi John, If the Video is working can be downloaded in Videobox in one Lion installation it has nothing to do with Tasty Apps. The problem is on your Mac, something missing or a setting on your Mac! What is the video format? Is it Flash, do you have Flash Player, Flip4Mac installed? Open a new user account on your computer and see if it will also not load in that user. If it does load just fine then its an issue with the one of the system files in your user related to safari or flash that is causing the problem. You can start by pulling the com.apple.safari.plist from MacintoshHD/Users/your username/Library/Preferences. In Lion you get to your user library by holding Option when clicking on the Go menu in the Menu Bar when Finder is the active application (next to the Apple). You can also look at the Internet Plug Ins folder in the User library, as well as clearing the cache files out of the Caches folder if the issue only happens in your user. If it also does not load in a new user then the issue is system wide with the application itself and might need a proper uninstall re-install. Also test sites where flash is used like CNN.com videos http://edition.cnn.com/video/# to verify its the plugin.

Launchpad and System Preferences
With Snow Leopard I had ALL the applications that I ever used as icons in the dock, a long line up but very easy and convenient. All my regulars were set as startup items and hidden. With Lion I am trying to go with the flow/modernise/get with it/update or whatever and use Launchpad. To this end only running applications whether hidden or not show on the dock. System Preferences is an anomaly. Though set as a startup item it starts and then vanishes whether set as hidden or not. Has anyone any comment on this?

Re: Launchpad and System Preferences
Hi Severin, not the perfect solution, but you can Command/ click and arrange the icons in Launchpad how you want them arranged, ie the ones you use a lot can be on the first page of Launchpad, or, alternatively just drag drop them into the Dock Bill ( just learning about Lion !! ) On 26/11/2011, at 1:27 PM, Severin Crisp wrote: With Snow Leopard I had ALL the applications that I ever used as icons in the dock, a long line up but very easy and convenient.

To this end only running applications whether hidden or not show on the dock. System Preferences is an anomaly. Though set as a startup item it starts and then vanishes whether set as hidden or not. Has anyone any comment on this? I am not convinced that Launchpad has any advantages over my earlier setup Severin Crisp Assoc Professor R Severin Crisp, FIP, CPhys, FAIP 15 Thomas St, Mount Clarence, Albany, 6330, Western Australia.
