Well, Mat, truth to tell, I too have noticed this. You and I appear to have taken almost exactly the same measures. There are others on this list who have, unless memory deserts me, also indicated this issue. They indicated that even a fresh installation does not seem to solve this. My guess is this. IF you report this to Apple, you will most likely get a canned message advising you that they cannot tell when new features will be implemented. OF course, you and I and others here know perfectly well that we're not talking about a new feature here. Should you decide to report this, and receive back an answer, let us know?
