The MacMost Question and Answer Forum is a place where you can ask how-to questions about your Mac, iPhone, iPad and other Apple products. MacMost specializes in tutorials, tips and techniques of the “how-to” variety, as opposed to “fix-it” questions that are more about something not working as expected.12/31/09

I listened to the podcast that discussed the printable list of Mac keyboard shortcuts, but when I enter the /j-keyshorts I am taken to other podcasts and not a web page where I can download this sheet.

Gary, I know that OSX has routines that run overnight and weekly or monthly if you leave it running. Does that work while my macbook pro (2009) is closed and asleep? Or do I need to periodically run those tasks manually?

Somehow my IPhoto library got corrupted. All the thumbnails were there as well as the original photos, but I couldn’t edit or play slide shows. I went to an Apple Genius Bar, where they created another new library and imported my photos into it. I still see my original ... (3 Comments)
