Last one on Mountain Lion for awhile. Promise. Ten exciting system changes in Mountain Lion: Sharing, sharing, everywhere (meh) Many computers, one account (Does that mean I can sync Keychains again?) iCloud-y documents (meh) Screen sharing: Now with draggable files (Good. I'll use that.) Multi-disk backup (Can't hurt. I should get another disk.) One-stop software […]

From MacWorld: Inline Find - Great Notifications in rules and selective notifications - Awesome VIPs - Woohoo! No more RSS - Took 'em long enough! Love all the changes. P.S. Get Cyndicate for your RSS reading.

Rivet is dead, so what is the recommended software now for streaming movies (mostly movies, maybe some music) from your Mac to your PS3 and XBox 360?

Love it! If this were somehow an Easter Egg in iOS, I'd enable it right away. Wait, remember Easter Eggs? Six hours of Googling all the classics later… Ah, Easter Eggs. Good times. Good times.

Perhaps when I'm done reading Steve Jobs I'll read the new Apple Book by Ken Segall. It looks good.

Yeah, that's not a drop-down menu, but it behaves like one. Where's the triangle? It looks like a regular old button. C'mon, Apple. These little things matter, and you know that better than anyone. Or at least you used to.

While troubleshooting an issue for a customer, I launched Console and noticed a message being repeated every two seconds: 1/15/12 8:17:54.000 am kernel: USBF: 768663.812 AppleUSBEHCI[0x137c6000]::Found a transaction past the completion deadline on bus 0xfd, timing out!

I persevered and finally got iTunes Match to work. After it uploaded a ton of songs, I created a playlist as suggested here and, over the next day or so, deleted and downloaded higher quality versions of my iTunes songs. I'll eventually go through and weed out the duplicates. I've seen a few. Will I […]

I signed up for iTunes Match earlier today. Since then, I've downloaded (replaced) exactly one song, and I've spent an hour or so searching the Web for "iTunes Match error 4001" and "iTunes Match error 4010" and so on. I've tried some of the tricks, I've set up a smart playlist, and I'm still just […]

This screenshot appears in Cyndicate from time to time. It also appears in Safari now and then. That would be fine, but there's absolutely no way I can see in the "Settings…" to turn the damn thing off.

Wha?

My Mac Pro is getting older. It's a 2 x 3 GHz Dual-Core Xeon with 13 GB of RAM. I've got four 1 TB SATA disks inside. It's hooked up to an older 23" Cinema Display and is on its second video card. The top SuperDrive (I have two) sticks sometimes when you eject the […]

This is interesting: you can scan your signature in Preview using your iSight camera. I'm not sure I'll ever use this feature but it's nifty anyway. 😉 From Finer Things in Mac.

Under Lion, what's the best/easiest way to automatically switch your Location (in the Network settings) based on where you are? AirPortLocation is no longer being updated and while it worked "okay" it over-reached a bit and changed all sorts of stuff. I may just make an AppleScript to do the two things I need (change […]
