According to the system requirements for Apples Thunderbolt display <http://www.apple.com/displays/specs.html> it requires 10.6.8 or later. I wonder if this will also apply to drives etc?

I find all of this very interesting because I can boot my MacBook Pro
2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8GB RAM, 60GB internal SSD + 320 GB
internal HDD(2009 model) into Leopard or Tiger even though it came
with 10.6. I can also boot my iBook G4 1.33 GHz into 10.3.5 even
though it came with 10.3.7 on it.

Does it differ on different machines? Some can't boot into older
versions of OS X because of incompatible hardware or something?

I'm not sure of this at all. I just know what I've experienced. I have
to make a trip to the Genius Bar on the 3rd of next month, or so. I'll
be sure to ask about this. I could have sworn that I confirmed this at
one point, but I'll double check.

Even if it was 'deemed to be so' by Apple, there is plenty of evidence
and testimony here that it isn't so.

Hester,
You miss the raison d'etre of news outlets, NYT included: to sell advertising.

Dowd's piece will increase hits to their web site and maybe sell a
few more papers to both those who are aghast at and those entertained
by her piece. Both will result in the ticking up of the perceived
value of NYT as an advertiser's showplace so they can be charged a
higher rate (pennies, by my guess).

News sells conflict and tragedy. The editors couldn't care less about
the topics they splash on the pages as long as it sells.

And if we were all in agreement there would be no need for most of
the "news" outlets. We'd be informed via FaceBook, et. al. .

Dowd probably received a nice check and a pat on the back from NYT
management. To them "It's just business."

iphone noob - resources?

Wed Oct 26, 2011 10:47 am (PDT)



Just joined this century and got an iPhone 4s - nice!!! shame about a 36
month contract though, but the last phone was not used much and on a
usurous "plan" with few benefits except to the provider.
Anyhoo, I tinkered with it for a couple of days, but have some tech
questions that many of you would consider basic. Just wondering if you
can recommend another yahoo group, a good book (is there an "iphone for
dummies"?) and whether this is on topic for THIS group, or if I should
save my questions for the genius bar at my local Apple store... in the
meantime I'll make a list of my questions that are inconclusively
answered by searching the web.

I have 2 iPhone 4 handsets that I'm going to bequeath to family members. ATT
tells me they can be used on my "family" plan and that they won't be on
contracts because we've not purchased new equipment.

So, if you can get an iPhone 4 in the burgeoning "used" market you probably
could take it to ATT and get no-contract service.

Here in Canada I was able to purchase Kaspersky Internet Suite 2012 for
$30 (half price) which I don't need to install until next March, when
the current installation expires.

I would suggest/recommend staying with Kaspersky since they seem to be
integrated into the Parallels program to begin with, but that is up to
you. I know they had a trial version that came with Parallels, this may
be what you have.

Jim Robertson also had a good suggestion with Microsoft's free software.
Probably your best other free solution.

If you do not do email, web browsing, or downloading using Windows apps, you don't need anti-virus at all for your Windows installation under Parallels.

First, make sure you completely uninstall any existing anti-virus app you have (like Kaspersky). Assuming AVG did not install, you don't need to uninstall. If you would feel better with anti-virus, I suggest you get "Microsoft Security Essentials" which is free for personal use. You don't need anything else. I like AVG and I don't want to cast aspersions. I use it on several machines, both free and commercial, but Microsoft Security Essentials is the simplest and most trouble free anti-virus I've used, and is good enough for most casual users.

I seriously question whether you need any Win AV if you are only running Win on a Mac using one of the virtual support apps.

Mac OSX has a great firewall that should do most of the protecting.

Please correct me if I am wrong, gurus.

Running Win as a VM does not exclude it from the same threats as a
standard Windows machine. The VM does not go through the OS X
firewall. There is nothing between the internet connection and Windows
in this instance.

Even though it is virtual, malware can still get through, and do.

No more than is electricity, or lithium-ion technology.

Speaking only from my own personal experience, when I ran Win XP on a PC without an AV it was violated within 3 minutes of booting. Clean up, reboot, violated again. I currently run Win XP under Parallels on OSX without any AV on the Win side and just do not have any issues. YMMV.

They are still in iCloud but nothing on the pc. Can anyone tell me how to get them back into Outlook. Thank you. Any help would be appreciated. Brenda

I find iCloud to be flakey with Win 7 and Office 2010. I had it
installed properly and had to reinstall Office. After the reinstall,
the iCloud control panel complained that there was no default profile in
Outlook.

I have yet to get it to work. I even uninstalled and reinstalled
Office. No luck.

Iphone doesn't perform complete Sync

I have an Iphone 3 running 4.2.1, and a new Macbook Pro running 10.7.2 Lion.
When I
plug the Iphone into the computer, it says "Syncing with Iphone" or words to
that effect,
but it doesn't even try to synch either calendar items, or address book
items. What am
I doing wrong? This phone was 'paired' to an Apple G5 before I got the
Macbook.
Do I need to do something to "unpair" it from the old machine and "pair" it
to the new one?

Thanks in advance!
