Hi all, A quick note about Time Machine and Skim notes (I haven't seen anything on this list about this yet). Following a hard-drive meltdown and the purchase of a new drive, I attempted a restore through Time Machine. All worked well, but I was horrified to see all of my Skim notes stripped away. I had (wrongly) assumed that Time Machine could handle extended attributes properly. Following a couple of hours of moping about the loss of close to a year of notes, I tried to simply drag my Papers folder from my backup drive back onto my Mac, and there the Skim notes were.
Lesson learned: Time Machine restore strips Skim notes, but they are backed up. Hope that this may alleviate some stress for somebody else.
