@jsnell Don't want to dump TM, but if I can't get it to work I may not have a choice. I would think Lion versioning would *lessen* the need.
@jsnell Might have been a good opportunity to add support for paid upgrades…
Seriously thinking about dropping Time Machine in favor of CrashPlan and increased SuperDupering.
Now Time Machine is giving me the -50 error using a different drive, freshly erased, in a different enclosure.
Got the dreaded Time Machine "Error: (-50) Creating directory Backups.backupdb", even after just erasing the whole drive.
@jtamboli Yeah, I was trying to avoid doing that because I've built up so many good corrections over the years…
@irons Well, good to know that that would supposedly work. I feel like I've made the same corrections way more than 5 times…
@nriley I wish there were a way to go in and edit the dictionary. I made some mistakes, and now it keeps auto-completing to incorrect words.
@ianbeck How did they do it? I thought eInk was eInk, and Amazon indicated recently that it was going to be stagnant for a while.
Mac App Store weirdness: one app update ready for sale but completely invisible in the store; the other's reviews only show in Safari.
@leebennett That's a long time. Did you design your own certificate? :-)
@stevenf Maybe I should give that a try. iTunes is not very good at picking up changes to projects/albums in Aperture.
@leebennett How do you edit the photos non-destructively? Does Lightroom work with that system?
@matthewdrayton Think of it like cp.
Good to see that Shine will be fixing the star icon for settings and the horrible handling of location names: http://appthat.com/blog/
@jablair @leebennett You can still just copy a link.
@leebennett And it wasn't linked using a guest pass?
@leebennett I haven't heard of that, but there's this: http://bit.ly/kCXE7O
@adamengst I thought there was something wrong with my Mac when dragging out of the sidebar wasn't working.
dropdmg DropDMG 3.0.7 is now available: http://c-command.com/blo...
@mhenders Keeping track of files archived to external hard drives and DVDs, and also the contents of clone backups.
Updating CDFinder. Probably my second-longest-used app after BBEdit. (Photoshop is no longer installed.)
First kernel panic in a long time: installing the Snow Leopard Font Update.
@nriley The surprising thing is that it's much faster to transfer files up to Dropbox and back down than just locally over WiFi/WebDAV.
Recently discovered that GoodReader supports Dropbox folder syncing. No more fiddly Bonjour WebDAV that only works right after rebooting.
@marcoarment Yes.
@petermaurer Yeah, I've never thought of using Acorn for photos, either. Got Aperture for that. Acorn's for screenshots and drawings.
@ccgus Acorn's Tools palette is great—maybe my favorite feature. Not sure how he concludes that Photoshop Elements is "more streamlined."
@AaronHillegass Probably rare. For me, I think that error has always been in situations with adjacent string literals.
@AaronHillegass For strings, not using #define can prevent accidental compile-time concatenation.
Read about Find Any File in Macworld and giving it a try. Nostalgic Copland-style results window. Doesn't show any results until done.
@uliwitness Yep, you can always make a garbage string with MacRoman. :-)
@pilky I've been doing days+launches for a long time; seems to work well. Problem with data trials: I want to see it handle all my data!
Changing the SMTP port to the one that Mail actually uses fixed the iPhoto sending problem. Thanks, everyone.
@_karsten_ I'm pretty sure the AppleScripts aren't used with the new theme layouts.
@mikebradshaw Hmm. Mail is set to use ports 25, 465, and 587; iPhoto uses 587. I bet 465 is the right one…
@CraicDesign I'll give that a try, thanks. Too bad that won't work with the templates, though.
Mom's iPhoto '11 can't send mail, even though it has the same settings as Apple Mail. Oh well, can always drag to Mail's Dock icon.
@Chealion @pilky @wilshipley I don't know—it's not the speed, but external drive systems seem to introduce an element of unreliability.
@wilshipley Drive bays!
@jsnell Yeah, video in is what I meant. So maybe with the right cable?
@jsnell Would be great if you could figure out why they dropped support for older MacBook Pros. Thought Thunderbolt was backwards compatible
@grantosborne A great body of work!
@retrophisch Comcast has been doing that for a while now for me.
@gittower Any keyboard shortcuts for picking repositories *within* the Dashboard?
