i ended up using windoex xp proff in the mac pro, and after a bit of
surprises i was free to go. My eyes could see a heck of text flying
over the screen but, that was all really.
But after end installation and changed key bindings it all runs as i
would expect.
thanks for all the help so far

Hi,
no. For the 6 years I’ve been using a Mac, although new features are added,
things are taken away and changed, the overall feel of the operating systems
are the same. For me, the most significant feature added in Mountain Lion is
the ability to access third party icons in the status menu.
I agree.
Cheers,
Donna

Have you tried saving the file as a Microsoft Word document while on the mac
and then opening it in windows? I know I've created documents using Pages and
converted them before sending them to people as attachments and I've never been
told the file didn't turn out correctly.

I have not, I really like Safari for the most part and don't even have Firefox
set up. I might have Chrome, I'm not sure, and I'll give that a try. Downloads
usually go well, but when an unstable connection is involved, Safari seems to
have more trouble than Firefox on Windows does.

Hi,
I'd agree, a failed download. I'm wondering, though, if this is a Safari issue
or something else. Did you try downloading with Chrome or Firefox to see if
it's a browser or web-site issue?
You have a great day as well.

I just tried that, and the same thing happened. I saw the progress, followed by
"the network connection was lost", and a reload button, which I activated. It
now shows the file, which is nearly 60mb, as having successfully downloaded
even though it is only 15k in size, clearly a failed download.
Hi,
Try quitting Safari then restarting it. Then go into the Downloads window with
cmd-option-l and see if Safari has automatically reconnected or if it will
allow you to start the process again manually. Normally, safari handles what
you were mentioning just fine but I'm not sure why it beha
