It can't seem to find a lot of my podcasts, such as bbd friday night comedy or
serotalk.
You can paste in an url, but I don't know how to do this.
Any kind helpers out there?
Thanks

As far as I know, you can’t change this behaviour. But what’s so difficult

Hi Sarah
Many thanks for your reply.
At the moment, I do not have any IDevices although I might purchase an
IPhone in the near future. I wonder which is the best way to back up my Mac
bearing this in mind? Should I use the ICloud or purchase an external drive
etc.
Kind regards

Hi Anne -
When I do CMD down arrow, I just get that ding sound that indicates the key

in the layout area. I have to hit VO shift down ar

Matthew,
This utility installs the distro you want onto the thumbdrive, and you boot
it up, like it is on a CD/DVD.
So you will be a live user, and can install it along side your OS or just
use it from the thumbdrive.

You can, however, create symbolic links that span file systems. For this to

If you just want to share a folder on one partition to a folder on
