Re: Cloning Account Settings Across Macs
Hi Kevin, Other than cloning the drive, I'm not familiar with any utility that would do what you're asking. There might be a way that it could be done if you had a firewire cable and you were to start up the second computer in Target Disk mode. You could then copy the user folder from one Mac to the other. In theory it sounds plausible but I'm not 100% sure it would actually work properly. It would need to be done from the Root user and it would also be dependent on whether the user on the second computer had already been created. There would be a lot of variables and if you're not careful, there's a ton of damage that can be done when logged in as Root. For as much time as it would take to test this, I'd just make a new user on the other computer and set things up manually. Later...

Re: False notification of disc ejection
Your first assumption is completely invalid. Ben and I both did not unplug the drive at all. Furthermore, this happened not just on his drive but also on a few different CGate drives I have, which, to reidderate, means process of elimination says, the drive wouldn't be defected as for one thing, this is not just happening with one drive, 2, the drives have all been repartitioned with Disk Utility, as well as through Windows, and even through Linux a few times, so there is no way. If it was because of data corruption, that data would have been rewritten with 1's and 0's, thus making the corrupted sectors or what not become validly reusable. Furthermore, on both of our drives, Disk Utility reports that they both were verified and were in good shape, and were functioning correctly. Performing an SMC reset as well as a P M ram reset on both our macbooks didn't fix the issue either. You have to understand: Ben didn't unplug the drive at all, nor was he trying to eject/unmount either of the volumes, so thus, the fact that the soft symbolic links to /Volumes/DrivePartitionNames got broken, is very strange. No drives ever were ejected, no volumes ever were ejected either via the eject key, command+E, nor through improper removing. It just clearly did this out of the blue. Yes, Ben and I have sufficient trustees to read/write to the drives, as both of our accounts are the primary administrator accounts, so believe me, it's not a disk permission issue that chmod, nor disk utility could fix. So... yeah...

Re: False notification of disc ejection
Hi Chris, Ben, Ashley, and Others, I was going to respond that the most likely problem was either with your cables and/or connector ports (which is what I think Ashley means when she refers to the "rubbish drive enclosures"). You get this kind of false notification message of disc ejection when the contact through your USB or Firewire connection ports at either end of your connection is not solid, and it could be due to the quality of the port connections or of the cables. If you are going through some kind of hub, it could be the quality of the ports on the hub, too. However, I'm not certain that even the Western Digital drives Ashley recommends are immune to this. About a year and a half ago, in a discussion on the mac-access list, the list owner stated that his recent Western Digital drives had been coming in with underrated power supplies, and that he'd ended up having to buy replacement generic power supplies to get better performance due to failures. (This was in stark contrast to his Western Digital drives of a few years earlier, which he was entirely happy with. The comment was that there had been a marked drop in the quality of the power supplies and also, after he disassembled a drive that failed, in the connectors they were using.) Quite independently, just before this report, I'd bought a portable Western Digital Passport drive, and then returned it without using for refund based on reading the unusually high problem reports that were coming in. (Again, the earlier models of these drives did not have these problems). And when I spoke to an Apple store worker about a month later, it turned out that he had bought one of these drives and had already sent it in twice for problems. This is not to pick on Western Digital, which certainly has a reputation for better than average hard drives (or did), but I think you might want to closely follow current internet reports before buying hard drives. Also, sometimes you can sort things by putting the drives into a different enclosures. I've had good experiences with the Macally enclosures, but I haven't done this recently. Again, I'd head off and read the reviews from buyers at newegg.com and other sites before evaluating current enclosure quality. HTH.

Re: stanza and kindle books
Hi, based on my own way of doing things: sure I just open a .mobi (Kindle) book in Stanza just as I would an Epub book on Mac. this is the default behaviour of Stanza to open these Kindle or other mobile PDA formats. as for download, I just download them from one of the free directories like Gutenberg. as for putting the books into an iPod Stanza, I would explain how I do it on an iPhone but I trust this could also apply on iPod. I just tab to the file sharing Area under Apps in iTunes. i highlight Stanza and then click on the Add button to browse to the directory where my Kindle books are kept. then Sync. That is how I do it over here.

False notification of disc ejection
I just got a Seagate drive from BestBuy. I wasn't doing a darn thing with the drive, yet a notification arose saying that it's not wise to unplug a drive without safely ejecting it. Apparently Chris Gilland has also had this problem with specifically his Seagate drives. Has anybody had this problem? I am almost certain that it's not a defective drive being that someone else has also encountered it.

Ipod classic hard drive.
Hi list. I have been using an Ipod classic for some time now, and lately my hard drive appears to perform slower than before.

Re: strange result when running a repair disk permissions, anyone no what it means?
Hi Kari, I'm not one hundred percent positive about what this message means, so am open to correction. I believe there's nothing to worry about, however. The message concerns a system file which you never modified yourself, which Apple probably modified in a software update. An SUID file is a concept from Unix, which is a bit difficult to explain. The permission "error" on it is nothing to be worried about. If I'm wrong, someone will surely let us know. Best, Zack.
