Hey, I'd be really grateful, too. It drives me nuts sometimes! ;-)
Especially so when I'm looking down at my keyboard typing (!) away,
then
look up at the screen and discover my text is not in the message but,
instead, in the drop-down 'enter password' box! Grrr!
Thanks for bringing this up, Rufus
What's even worse is when it happens during a download and SM freezes,
you have to Force Quit, and loose the whole session...grrrrrrr-squared!
Hi Rufus
Are you saying that when you are in the process of downloading
/anything/ from the Internet when the password box drops down (or pops
up, whichever!<s>) that SM disrupts everything?
Yes. Total lockup - I can't even cancel or acknowledge the Password
request...I have to Force Quit SM from the Finder and loose the session.
Thanks for the information! I expect it will get fixed eventually.
It's been going on since about SM 1.1.12, so I'm not holding my breath...
I far too often get a 'spinning beach ball' (computer working hard)- do
you think that SM could be the cause? I'd not tied the two events
together!
I don't get that, unless there are a huge number of posts for Mail to
download from a Newsgroup. That's to be expected. When the above happens
the rest of my machine doesn't lock up or stall though. Just SM.
Again, thanks!
Out of interest, what kind of Apple machine do you have?
David
I have several - an Intel iMac (my main machine), a G5 iMac, an Intel
Macbook Pro, and a new Mini with an SSD hooked into my living room TV.
Wow! Do you use any anti-virus programmes on any of them?
Yes - I prefer Norton AV (and *not* the full Internet Security Suite).
I've been using it since OS 7 and never had an issue with using it. I
have it on all of my Macs. Most of the people (Mac and PC) that I meet
that have issues with NAV are running the full Suite - I always advise
people to just buy/run the anti-virus only.
I was reading here earlier today:

Yes - I installed Apple's Java update on my machines a couple days ago.
It showed up in Software Update on my Macs running 10.6.8, but I had
to manually install it on my Mini, which is running Lion.
I'm looking for info on how I can spot it by inspection...otherwise I'll
be running scans on all of my machines over the next few days.
One good thing I spotted is that CCleaner is now available from the App
store! (Free)
I'll have to check that out - thanks for the pointer!
Are there any specific Mac Usenet groups you are aware of/use?
David
I monitor alt.macintosh, but it's pretty slow. I get most of my Mac
news and info from Macintouch -
http://www.macintouch.com/
Very informative site - I read it daily, throughout the day.
