She should also check the email addresses that are linked with her accounts. For example, Yahoo will send an email to all your linked email addresses after the password is updated.

First, be advised that at this point the horse is out of the barn, so
even if she changes her password, nothing will be reclaimed. The hacker
will still have her address book. The best course to follow at this
point is to open a new account (With a good password this time, of
course) and then send an email to all her contacts informing them of the
breech in security to alert them not to open any attachments that seem
to be coming from her at her old address.

And, if you have a full bootable clone, you can carry on using your Mac
even then. Of course, if the clone is not up to date, you will be missing
all your recent files, but you might also have more recent Time Machine or
other backups.

I have owned a copy of it for years and it has found problems now and then which it corrected. In recent times they have gone from a CD to a DVD and to up date it to Lion, you have to go to the DVD format. This is the only time that you have to pay for an update and if you are a registered user of this program, you will get it at a discount. Through the years they have updated the program and when they do you will get notification of the update and they will guide you through the process at no extra cost.

Is it worth it? That is up to you, but I think it does help on certain occasions and I am keeping my copy updated!

I don't totally agree that Disk Utility/Repair Disk always works as I have run disk repair at times from Disk Utility and it has indicated no problems. I then turn around and run Disk Warrior and on occasions it finds errors where Disk Utility did not find and it corrects them.

Didn't you wonder how they market and sell software, especially expensive ones? Has anyone ever had a problem by NOT running DiskWarrior just for the heck of it?

If you're asking if Disk Warrior ever fixed anything, you betcha! If you ever get a node error, your drive is unreadable, and it can't be fixed with Disk Utility. Disk Warrior will fix it, however. I've fixed many a drive with it, where Disk Utility was unable to repair the disk. I had one last week with that problem.

64 hours? That makes no sense. At 4 Mbps that would be 115 GB and at 1 Mbps
it would be 28 GB. What is the actual size of the download?

The size of the download isn't so much. But it seems to be using only a fraction of the available bandwidth. If I try to use a 1 Mbps connection, the download time increases even more. Something wrong with the mirror configuration here I guess.

I think I'm gonna have to ask someone to get me thumb drives from the Apple Store when they're traveling to India, or get a few myself when I travel.

OFF-LIST

Harry,

Please keep this off-list.

Arjun is just a troll and a whiner. No matter what you or anyone tells him, you are wrong and he is right. I pretty much just gave up on him. He has accused me os racism and personal attacks on him. I'm just waiting for Randy to go off on him.

He is the source of much of his own issues. A little forethought would keep him from having these problems. He is younger than most of the regulars here, by 20 or more years, and he still thinks Windows when working on a Mac. He has started a social networking site and thinks that makes him the only one whose opinion or thinking is correct.

If I were king of the world for a day, I would take away his Macs and iPhone and give him Windows boxes and an Android phone, let him customize them to his hearts content, and watch him howl.

I'm not a Terminal user, but a quick read though that web page confused the hell out of me. I'm sure if I had to I could do it, but I would have to ask a few questions to do it. And it would still confuse me.

When you're done downloading I, for one, would be interested to learn EXACTLY what the names and sizes are of the file or files you have downloaded.

Hi Oneal,
No, I'm suggesting that your problem may be a global system problem;
for any character to be displayed it has to be encoded and transmitted
consistently and then used to display specific characters which have
to exist in the font displayed by the receiving terminal.
I know nothing about Hungarian fonts, but I can look them up and I
find that they are handled correctly by ISO-8859-16, Windows-1250 and
UTF-8. I see from your message that you are using UTF-8. So any
inconsistency at the receiving end will be down to whether the font
used at that terminal includes such characters as your long umlauts.
I do know about French and the fact that if I send you the character Å"
(that's an o & e ligature) or a ÿ (that's a y plus an umlaut) or a €
(Euro sign) that they probably won't appear correctly if there is any
legacy software in the depths of Yahoo that doesn't cope with the more
esoteric characters, even though we are both using UTF-8.
One day we'll all sing the same tune...
regards,
Ian

I recently installed Temperature Monitor app to keep an eye on the internals of my iMac. The sensor overview lists lots of different items, but for most there isn't a specified upper or lower limit shown. I have googled this but not really found an accurate guide to what the temps should be or when to get worried - for example either of the heatsinks or the hard disk.

What temperatures should we be looking for?

Thanks so much for your comments. 

I do not have the "Installer" dvd for Mac and the staff at the local Apple
"genius bar" thought much of what was in the folder was essential and not taking up substantial GB`s, that I should consider trying to delete. 

I wish I knew what all those icons meant. The prior owner seemed to have done a very good job wiping everything out,
so I am not really sure what the origin of most of this stuff is.

Opening iTunes

When I open iTunes I now only see the bar that appears on the top of the full screen (the one with Play, Stop, Volume, etc).

Have you accidentally selected Window > Switch to Mini Player

Hitting the green button will do the same thing. My guess is that the
OP hit the green button when he really meant to hit the yellow one to
minimize at one point or another. If things work well then getting
the full window and then quitting and relaunching iTunes should (and
the key word is "should") get things right again.

i pod touch, i tunes ques

Hello,
I just downloaded an album in my hubby's i tunes then connected his ipod touch to sync it, for some reason the last 3 songs were duplicated on the i pod touch but isn't on i tunes.

Ques is how do I delete the duplicated songs from I pod, don't see anywhere where I can do this.
Went to apple support but couldn't find anything there.
Tried resyncying but that didn't work.

Thinking I would delete it from I tunes all together then redownload it.
Just seems like a lot of trouble to go through though.
As usual all and any help is much appreciated.

Thanks
Barbara from Montreal

Pretty ease actually. All you have to do is plug the iPod into your computer and set it to 'manually manage music and videos'. Then, you can just highlight the entries in iTunes, on the iPod's view naturally, and delete them.

In doing this, all you have to do is drag and drop any item(s) you want on the iPod from this point on. Should you choose to go back to the automatic method, you simply uncheck the box to manually manage items.

My apologies to the list about my recent post.

I am not trying to start a flame war. It was intended to be off-list and not to pour gasoline on anything.
