Hi Neil,
Just a warning about File Vault (which your below article suggests people use),
if people are using Time Machine for backup.
File Vault Time Machine don't play well together. Time Machine will only back
up your FileVault when you log out. If you don't log out, you don't get backed
Hi all
My son is giving me an iPad (wiFi plus 3G) for my birthday this week
(it's a biggie! 8-D).
It'll be great because I'm having to spend about 90% of my time on the

Hi BarbZ

Thanks Dave ...
Yep, I know!
He's visiting from London atm.
(Not too keen on driving much here as he's been overseas for 20+ years
doesn't know his way round any more!)
I know NOTHING about Airports, so will have to look that up as well -

Hello wamug folk

Hi Barb,
You say your existing ethernet modem/router is working well and has given
you no problems and that (until the promise of a new iPad) you weren't
planing on using a wireless network.
In your situation, I wouldn't bother getting a wireless modem (which Apple
doesn't make) - I would just

Hi Ronni,
Yes, thanks for emphasising that.
I must say, FileVault never really appealed to me (even without the Time
Machine considerations) - I didn't like the fact that if it somehow messes
up (or I do by forgetting the password) then everything is essentially
unrecoverable.
