Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Still battling the transfer from my old mac to the newish mini. The migration assistant isn't helping much because many of the docs/spreadsheets etc. are older versions that the current os supports...or at least that is my theory.
Has anyone used Decloner, or similar software to find duplicate files on a Mac? I suspect I have many copies of the same photos and would like to clean up the inventory.
Update on the update. The quite nice local Mac experts will gladly upgrade my 2G to 8G for $149.
I really think I'm going to try to do it myself. If I'm gentle and patient, I think it will be okay. Saving that $100 would be really nice.
Is there a way in Outlook 2007 to set different hours for different days of the week? (I work 8-4 MTW and 9-5 ThF.)
Set your hours for 8-5 and then make recurring weekly appointments for the hours you aren't there?
Thank you le nubian!
dupeguru found roughly 350 duplicate files. I'm _terrible_ at keeping too many copies of things. It's nice to so easily find and eliminate the rubbish.

I was hoping for something less clunky, but that will definitely work.
eta: FEAR ME.
I feel like Tom Hanks in Castaway...SEE WHAT I HAVE WROUGHT!
Okay, it isn't exactly fire, but I was able to crack into the G5s and wipe both disks.
I feel all manner of tech ninja (or, at least someone who can google, read and follow well-written instructions.)
Now I need to figure out what to do with 2 full functioning G5 ppcs, one iMac (circa 1999...works like a champ) and one Powerbook (circa 2000...also, works like a champ).
Oh, and a Studio Display (circa 2000).
Antiques...sigh.
I, too, am feeling all-powerful this morning.
I successfully moved my Win XP PC's entire Documents and Settings folder off of my system drive. Who wants to touch me?
I said, WHO WANTS TO TOUCH ME?!
Massive Tech Ninja High Five, Jon.
I can't even describe how giddy I was accomplishing this (ultimately) simple task after two weeks of tech torture. Seriously, it felt like this was the week the machine Overlords would take over.
But, we were vic-tor-i-ous.
This may not be Sparta, but we are pretty badass.
I am sitting in a seminar teaching software. They distributed a new version. I broke it first. I hit the tracker button. Then it gave beach ball and crashed. When I announced the issue, of course, the whole class tried it. And 3/4 of the class had crashes. Mwhahaha! (at least I got the seminar for free)
So, should I upgrade to iOS 6 now? Or wait a few days?
When was the last time an iOS upgrade caused significant problems?
