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

Nobody has any suggestions for my SMB problems? I can't even get it to force me to reauthenticate. Even when I use the menu and Go to the server, it just spins and nothing ever happens.

Hey. New board.

I dunno, ita. That's weird. You're using the smb:// opener, right?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

When I try to sync my iPhone with iTunes I get a pop-up saying that this computer isn't authorized and that I'll lose 7 apps if I sync without authorization. When I click to authorize, I get a pop-up saying the computer is already authorized. It just keeps going in that loop until I cancel the sync. Any ideas on how to fix this?

can you deauthorize that computer and then reauth?

I was Gris. I rebooted, and the connection failed, as it should, with the credentials deleted. And I put them back in and I'm golden. I just hate rebooting. I had a ton of documents I wanted to save to the shared drive, dammit.

I gave that a shot. Didn't work.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

aurelia, have you transferred your purchases from your iPhone to your computer?

(for the record, I hate the way syncing is set up. Why do they assume that I want my computer and iPad to have exactly the same stuff?)

No, I never purchase via the phone. It's a new computer and the Apple store did a mac-to-mac transfer when I bought it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

When I try to sync my iPhone with iTunes I get a pop-up saying that this computer isn't authorized and that I'll lose 7 apps if I sync without authorization. When I click to authorize, I get a pop-up saying the computer is already authorized. It just keeps going in that loop until I cancel the sync. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I had this problem, and apparently it's because I had bought stuff with two different IDs (although I'm not sure how), and I could never fix it, although I didn't go so far as to contact Apple about it. I think megan walker had a similar issue.

Yup, just happened to me again yesterday. It's just a few songs so I didn't worry about it. But next time I should probably write them down and see if they are loading anyway.
