I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

OK, I need advice.

I recently rebuilt my Mac Mini's directories using DiskWarrior. It had been in a permanent kernel panic before that. Now, should I restore to a Time Machine Backup from before the kernel panic problem started, or will that reintroduce the problem? Or do I even need to restore? I'm not sure what rebuilding the directories changed.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Hey, does anyone have Zooborns on their iphone/ipad? For the past week or so, it's been telling me there aren't any images to be found, but the web site seems to be updating still, and I am wondering if it's just me or the app.

Looks like the iphone 4 could have been international.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Has anyone had problems with pyTivoX? I'm sharing two folders--one on my Mac, and one on my Linux server. I have the same file in both folders, but my TiVo only sees the one on the Linux box.

I've deleted and recreated the entry for the Mac folder, changed folders, changed share type, everything. It won't see the avis unless they're, oddly enough, on the remote server.

It used to be intermittent, but it's been a solid day and I haven't been able to pick anything up--the symptom before was that it showed I had more than a page of items on the Mac, but when I paged down, it said there were no recordings, so I could never find the file I was really looking for. I deleted everything but the right file, and now it swears it's empty. I put some of the old stuff back, and it won't register.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

ita,

I have intermittent problems with pytivox here and there. Here's is what I have done:

a) reduce the number of files in the folder

some times this works really well.

b) restart the computer

this is probably the most effective "fix"

c) quit other software programs that stream media

don't know if this fixes my problem or not

Well, there are only two files in the folder, so that's not it. It may take a restart. And I have nothing else on that's streaming.

Thanks for the suggestions.
