 Hello all,

Hello Walter,
 
 Have just upgraded to Maverick.

It is OS X Mavericks 10.9   (has an 's')

 Can I use the same bootable HD (ML) to do the occasional SuperDuper backup ?

Yes, SuperDuper does a bootable 'Clone' of your computer.

 Is there an official Maverick user manual ?

Apple don't supply manuals for the OS (Operating System).

Use Finder  Help  Help Center. It's just like a manual! 
And it's built into the OS!

OS X Mavericks: The missing Manual  by Author David Pogue is one book I would 
recommend people purchase.

Forgot to mention that you need to Pre-Order the book.
OS X Mavericks: The missing Manual  by Author David Pogue is not released 
until 31st December. I Pre-Ordered my copy quite some time ago.

Re: Maverick

2013-12-10 Thread F.W. Hänel
Hi Ronni,

I have one D. Pogue missing manual for Leopard already and found it very good.
Its much more than just a user manual. Have to arrange for father christmas at 
Amazon to 
deliver the Mavericks version early next year.

Also tried unsuccessfully to install the same Activity Monitor dock icon (was a 
pie chart in ML)
but it’s not available in Mavericks ? The CPU activity graph on the desktop 
looks different too.

Thanks for your reply Ronni.

Cheers,
Walter

Hi Walter,

 Also tried unsuccessfully to install the same Activity Monitor dock icon (was 
 a pie chart in ML)
 but it’s not available in Mavericks ? The CPU activity graph on the desktop 
 looks different too.

View network activity in the Activity Monitor Dock

Choose View  Dock Icon  Show Network Usage.

Select the type of activity displayed in the graph

In the Activity Monitor window, you can change the type of data displayed in 
the network activity graph. 
The type of data you select is shown in the graph in the Activity Monitor 
window and in Activity Monitor’s Dock icon.

1. Click Network at the top of the Activity Monitor window.
2. Click Packets or Data above the graph.

Cheers,
Ronni

 Hi all
 
 Recently there was comment on Maverick's Mail behaviour. I find it not as 
 snappy in sending and receiving as the previous mail - but it is interesting 
 that when sending and receiving it reports on the activity - must be for the 
 day, it will report 128 of 128 - when receiving 1 , 
 and when sending: 5 of 5 - the 5 of the 5, for the day perhaps?

Hi Brian,

Mail - Menu Bar - Go to Window  Activity to open the Activity window.

If you view the activity window while sending a message you’ll see that Mail is:
1. Sending the message through your ISP
2. Copying the message to your Sent folder (usually on the sever)

Similar happens when you open mail and it shows incoming messages.
Also if you have created any Rules’… Rules run immediately as the message 
arrives in your Inbox.
If you have junk mail coming in then Mail will also show it as incoming 
messages but will move it to the Junk Mail folder immediately.

Mail is likely just synchronizing changes with the server, and is showing the 
progress of this. 

Cheers,
Ronni

Thank you Ronni for you explanation. So, it is just mail being busy in the

Re: Maverick n Mail

2013-12-05 Thread Ronni Brown
You're welcome Brian,

There is certainly nothing sinister going on in Mail :-)
I'm just rushing out to an appointment but will just add some more information 
for you to help understand what Mail is doing in the background.

Mail’s Notification Settings
To determine which incoming messages trigger Mail to send notifications:

1. Open Mail’s General preference pane.

2. From the New Message Notifications: pop-up menu, choose one of the following:

* Inbox Only: Only new, unread messages that appear in your Inbox (and not, for 
example, messages that are automatically filtered into other mailboxes) trigger 
notifications.

* VIPs: Only incoming messages from people you’ve marked as VIPs (see Work with 
VIPs) trigger notifications.

* Contacts: Messages from any address in your Contacts list trigger 
notifications.

* All Mailboxes: new, unread messages that appear in ‘All your Mailboxes’ 
including the default Smart Mailbox - (Mail provides a default Smart Mailbox 
named ‘Today’s Email”, which shows messages viewed during the current day.) 
And any  Smart mailboxes you’ve set up appear here; 
All new messages in all Mailboxes will trigger notifications.

Note: I always have * All Mailboxes selected  I have setup a few Smart 
Mailboxes.

3. Close the Preferences window.

Kind Regards,
Ronni
