Hello everybody It is traditional when new members join the Mac Access Dot Net email forum that Tracy, Gordon and I try to welcome the new member(s) personally. In keeping with that tradition, we are delighted to welcome: Robert Carter to our number. We are gratified by the fact that Mac Access is growing globally. We hope that you will find [email protected] a pleasant, friendly and worthwhile place to be.
In here you will find a wealth of knowledge, and people with a variety of skill levels ranging from the total novice, to the application developers with advanced skills. Then there are those who don't yet own a Mac, but have a keen interest; and those who use iOS devices only. We hope you will feel free to post your questions and constructive comment, whatever your skill levels may be. Be assured, there will be none of the ridiculing and flaming which we know takes place in other groups. That kind of behaviour is not tolerated in Mac-Access. Anything Mac OS and iOS is on topic for this group. In the case of virtualisation applications such as Fusion and Parallels Desktop, the configuration of the applications themselves, plus the configuration of the virtual machines is on topic. However, the configuration of Windows or any other operating systems within that virtual machine is off topic. The exception to that is if you're using another instance of OSX within the virtual machine. This has always been a bit of a grey area; but we hope this clarifies the position. We regret that we cannot permit the discussion of Apple's Windows-based implementations of iTunes and iCloud. Although we understand that this is contentious, experience has shown that such threads always seem to digress and, before you know it, the topic has changed to totally unrelated Windows discussion. This group is specifically Mac OS and iOS. If you have any list-related queries, please do not hesitate to contact either Gordon and myself, (the list owners), at <[email protected]>, or one of our very capable assistant list controllers; Anne Robertson, <[email protected]> or Donal Fitzpatrick, <[email protected]>. Finally, I would like to add that currently, we are offering all Mac-Access. members the opportunity to purchase the Take Control Of Your Mac publications, published by Tidbits.com, at an 80% discount. These books include Apple operating systems, (Mac OS X and iOS), plus a number of third-party applications. If you want to know more, please contact the above support address.
