Apple style:
1997 - no more beige!
2011 - Grey IS a colour scheme.
Great work Apple. Good products... but, ugly.
And yes, I have changed the image on my login screen from crappy grey
linen to a nice photo from my recent trip to Kakadu.
A little while ago I posted regarding a printer not being recognised when
plugged in to a USB port on my iMac but then recognised when plugged in to a
hub. I have replaced the cable with a high quality USB 2 certified etc one and
all is now fine. I believe a combination of quality and length
All,
After a couple of weeks of using Lion with my Mac Mini and 27 monitor, I have
not had any problems with it. It appears stable for my use.
I've not got around to using some of the features such as Mission Control and
Launch Pad. I do like the way the apps are displayed in Mission
Hi Douglas,
Ok, I won’t tell you what my other suggestion was going to be. Only that it was
to do with the “ iPhotoLock.data “ file, that is in iPhoto Library.
Trying to give email support in a situation like this is extremely difficult
especially when I can’t see what is on the computer.
Hi Ronni,
Yes, I totally understand that it's so difficult doing remote navigation.
I really appreciate your assistance in this and it has certainly turned out to
be a strange set of convoluted circumstances.
It is also crazy to think that Nextbyte sold me iLife'11, having mentioned that

Sorry Tim, I don't have Lion, but I do have Aperture in Snow Leopard, with
shades of grey... grey buttons on a grey background. I thought that was
idiosyncratic of Aperture, not a new progressively backward Apple step.
Please tell me I'm mistaken. Is there a way to change stupid greyscale

Hi Severin,
Why the same poor quality cable plugged into the hub none the less worked is
not clear though.
Presumably the hub has it¹s own power supply it could just be down to the
limitations of the power output from the iMac port coupled with high cable
losses from the long cheap cable and

I bought (leased first) a 165c, my first laptop, and it was a wonderful
computer. Packaged with a StyleWriter printer it cost me $3000!
Many wonderful memories.

Yes it is a powered hub, but so is the printer so that is more or less
irrelevant I would have thought.

I'll be following development of the site with great interest.

Hey Daniel,
I have found that as it stands, NO App distributed via the App Store can use an
update mechanism other than the Store’s own.
But that would not explain why you are unable to update iPhoto, iMovie, iTunes
etc from the updates that you have on your Network or Portable Drive.
Unless
Ah the happy times when we were just glad to be able to do basic
graphic stuff on a mac. The Lisa, The Mac Plus, The Mac SE. Oh how
grand I thought I was when I got the extension card for my Mac SE so I
could hook up a 20 Greyscale monitor and do my programming on a big
screen! Of
Hi Ronnie,
Popped in to Nextbyte in Nedlands this morning and after some time spent by the
'concierge' the following files were trashed
to allow iPhoto 9.1.5 to rebuild the library database successfully.
All working 'A' OK now.
These files were trashed :
com.apple.iPhoto.plist
iPhoto.ipspot
when i were a lad……
our first mac at home was a black Performa system, forgotten the specs, but it
was a costly $4000+ for education special price
This was upgraded to an iMac DV SE (the first mac with a dvd drive)
followed by a Core 2 Duo 17 iMac (2006)

Hi Ronni,
I have concerns about the App store both from a user aspect and from a
reseller aspect. Putting aside my reseller concerns, as a user the App
store has both attraction and concerns. It's great to be able to
search and download apps, have free or lite versions and have an easy
Hi Guys
Personally I find I quite like the app store BUT professionally I don't!! We
have quite a few Macs at Wanews and we sometimes have a need to buy software
for just one Mac. So how do I do this ? set up an Apple account for each user?
Use our corparate account but how would that work?
Hi Douglas,
Thanks for getting back. I’m pleased that what Nextbyte have done was what my
last suggestion was to be.
This is what I had prepared for my next reply to you:
Make sure iPhoto is Quit:
1. Open the folder where your iPhoto library resides. Home Pictures - iPhoto
Library
2.
Thanks very much Ronni.
all the very best

Hi Stuart,
Yes, I agree with your comments. Also App Developers are ’not happy’ with the
amount of time Apple takes to ‘approve’ updates the developers make to their
Third-Party Apps, especially 'security updates’. Therefore users of Apple Mac
Store, may be putting their computer's security at
I think its a very dangerous path that Apple are heading down. What has
worked well on iOS does not necessarily translate to the desktop. Security
updates are much more critical in the desktop environment, as Apple by large
has much less control over what you can install or visit (via web
