Select "Software update" under the Apple menu.

Very necessary. You are being punished for using Vista.

Thanks Eric. My Mom is in New York and we have spent many hours talking

Are you up to date with your patches? TimeMachine is new and acting like
your typical version 1 product. X.5.2 did a lot to tame it and then there
was a subsequent TimeMachine patch. I'm testing TimeMachine on 5 syst

That I have not seen on either Mac or PC. Websites like VersionTracker
try to keep up on all such changes and you can upload a list of your
software, but that is not something I would rely on. It is hard enou
There are a whole bunch of logs, any clues as to which one to check?

By the way, I just found an add for that cell phone I mentioned in
another thread. It is in a Shell time share magazine. It's called the
Jitterbug. The cheapest price listed in the add is $10/mo. But it also
says call for their lowest price. 1-866-540-0297. I have no
affiliation with them.
In a move that's sure to get the attention of Apple's lawyers, one
company has started advertising a new $400 hackintosh dubbed the
"OpenMac."

Tom and Mike, yes, I was looking for something that does for Macs what
Secunia does for PCs (as well as looking to see if there were other
products/services for PCs to compare to Secunia). Here's the
