Re: Yosemite with chrome downloads
Hello Peter, Thanks for this info. I am currently cleaning up my computer in readiness for an upgrade - and it looks like it will have to be Yosemite.

I am using Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.10. The transfers would not go through using Safari. I only use Safari - but tried using Firefox and the transfers went through easily. So, as I prefer using Safari, I will be spending this weekend carefully going through the WAMUG posts to be dragged kicking and screaming to upgrade from my comfortable SL to Mavericks. Yosemite is a step too far! Hope it all goes well for me. Regards Marlene Oostryck Actually Marlene, if you intend going to Mavericks you might as weil go the extra step and install Yosemite, for the following reasons: 1. Apple have dropped Mavericks from the App Store, so if you haven't already downloaded a copy prior to the release of Yosemite you're going to find it a challenge finding a copy. 2. Apart from a handful of key improvements, the differences between Mavericks and Yosemite are largely cosmetic. Coming from Snow Leopard, your learning curve will be the same either way. 3. As nice as Mavericks was, it still had a few little rough edges that Yosemite has finally polished off. There will be no advantage to you trying to upgrade to Mavericks instead of Yosemite. You will have to make the move at some time. Now is the perfect time.

Re: Yosemite bug report
I see the same thing. If you delete the first message from the window the list moves up and the message that was second (and you could see details of) now becomes blank (except for time and date). robin On 27 Oct 2014, at 4:54 pm, Pat clamsh...@iinet.net.au wrote: Hi, Ronni, Please take a look at this screenshot: http://www.rarefruitclub.org.au/Xtra/First_Line_missing.png There are 2 messages there, but details are only shown on one.

Hi Pat, I'll send you a screenshot Offlist of my 'Messages of Server' window. Drag your 'window' frame wider - then drag the columns wider (place your cursor near the dividers in the Headings drag) In your Date Received you should also see the Date you are only seeing the time - the Date shows to the left of the time (as you will see in my screenshot.

Re: Yosemite bug report
Hi Robin, I do see the problem being discussed here. But this is the normal behaviour with ‘Messages on the Server’ POP Account. When the next New Message arrives on the Server - The New message replaces the blank message at the top of the ‘Account Info’ window The message that was blank before - now has 'all details showing' as it moves to second place down the list.

So when I see recommendations to go another change/upgrade I am ever more reluctant. I won’t go into details but Mail has a some random behaviours, I still get the occasional (random) warning about an improper removal of an external disk. In the latter, no disk has been removed and nothing touches the USB in the side of the laptop. Permissions repair takes sometimes an hour etc etc. So Yosemite? Bill Hi Blll, IN general my responses to the list are from an entirely personal point of view, with, as much as possible, little reference to outside sources (I just don't have the time for the research!) and make recommendations accordingly. I'm sorry you've had these issues with some aspects of Mavericks, but all I can say is that they are outside my experience. My main niggles with Mavericks have been related to certain small bits of software which were not sufficiently developed to deal with Retina displays, such as the Colour Picker. Most if not all of these have been addressed in Yosemite, so I for one am a happy chappie. Yosemite for me has been a further step forward.

Re: Creating Installation windows

I need to do this so the CD can be used on a Mac or PC any suggestions of a suitable program that will launch a web based book from a CD for Windows or Mac? I was going to print the book but it is 300 pages long and my printer packed up so I now have a new Epson printer but have 3 sets of HP Printer print cartridges (HP02, HP94 and HP95) surplus to requirements. I am not sure what you mean by in word and excel in a web page, but no one else has answered so I wonder if you have considered saving your book as a PDF. This would make it generally available on Macs and PCs. Alternatively, just provide instructions to open the initial file in a web browser. It used to be possible to get this to happen automatically on a PC when the Cd was inserted, with an AUTORUN.INF file (plus a couple of other small files) but I do not know whether this still works with more recent versions of Windows. I do not think that this was ever possible on a Mac, because Apple took the security implications more seriously.
