aha! disabling "marker felt" font was the culprit re: mail notes not working
― moonship journey to baja, Monday, 17 March 2008 03:35 (sixteen years ago) link
So are you going to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageously bad fonts just to use mail notes? Or is there another way?

there must be some lifehacker bullshit on how to make that less annoying

for something that's supposed to make email easier, IMAP has a funny way of going about it

I haven't used POP since the 1990s!

is there a good imap tutorial somewhere?
― moonship journey to baja, Monday, 17 March 2008 17:58 (sixteen years ago) link
Tutorial? Why not just break down and beg for help, K?

What's this about Rush Limbaugh saying that Time Machine doesn't back up mail properly anyways?
― libcrypt, Monday, 17 March 2008 18:01 (sixteen years ago) link
Software bugs are liberals, probably.

shouldn't you be on the other thread, being schooled by the pinefox?
― moonship journey to baja, Monday, 17 March 2008 18:05 (sixteen years ago) link
Doesn't time machine have trouble with entourage (lol)?

GMail's IMAP support is buggy at best
― Elvis Telecom, Monday, 17 March 2008 18:12 (sixteen years ago) link
Yea, :/

gmail IMAP is a fucking pile of shit. i've wasted half the day waiting for leopard's mail client to open the "all mail" folder.

Safari 3.1 supports webfonts. Nifty. Too bad nobody else probably does yet.

So this new ipod software update i downloaded yesterday has apparently screwed up the fast scrolling, where it flashes up each letter of the alphabet. It now stops at all the "The... " artists so the letters go A T B T C T D T E T ...

in leopard when you have an mp3 with a photo attached it shows the icon for the file as a miniature of the sleeve (totally fucking unnecessary) similarly it shows a minaturized still for a movie file (totally fucking unnecessary) but i just want them to show up as .mp3 or .mpeg icons not as little photos so i don't get the files confused and instantly know what kind of data something is. can i make it do that?

Finder > View menu > Show View Options. If you do it on the desktop it won't stick, do it with a window open and then hit "Save as default"

cheers stet!

np! It was driving me daft as well -- why would I want all my text docs to look like black squiqqles on white, and no way to know what app will open them? Stupid.

It's all about QuickLook and jamming that spacebar!
― Nhex, Monday, 31 March 2008 03:00 (sixteen years ago) link
whoa. I fired a machine this morning. Nothing but BSOD, no matter what else I tried or how wacky the google results seemed to get. I finally hooked it up to another machine and transferred all the most essential files, and am now reinstalling Leopard. What a pain. :(
― kenan, Wednesday, 2 April 2008 15:12 (sixteen years ago) link
not fired. FRIED.
― kenan, Wednesday, 2 April 2008 15:13 (sixteen years ago) link
i installed leopard and my old powerbook g4 feels like i just added more RAM to it, it's amazing
even if that hadn't happened though it's worth it for Quick Look ALONE, it seems to work with everything!! it is a fricking godsend for people with loads of files to deal with
― Tracer Hand, Wednesday, 2 April 2008 15:16 (sixteen years ago) link
hey, this is the hate thread, bud.
― kenan, Wednesday, 2 April 2008 15:20 (sixteen years ago) link
buggy leopard is ALMOST worth it for quick look alone, which is amazing
nothing but crash city tho! I'm so inured to it, working primarily on windows at work, but it was only the other day I thought "hey, why won't a single application close without returning error report dialogues these days?" ans: leopard

maybe it's your intel architecture lol
