Talking of all things MAC.  Woke up this morning to Mail crashing with a "Mail quit unexpectedly" message.  Apple support wanted to charged me USD55 per hour to help.  Am currently downloading Snow Lion (for USD20) because then I will be in warranty and they'll help me out for nothing…..

About one in twenty crashes, I manage to down load mails before it crashes.  Then if I turn WiFi off I can restart and work on those mails.

Reconnect to WiFi and it manages to send the mails before if crashes again..

FECK FECK FECK

Oh, must mean a new iPhone is coming. Happens every time.

Part of the "magical" Apple experience, huh?

[Giles]

What is magical is that, thus far I have not punched a feckin hole in the feckin screen…..

10.8 is definitely a better OS than 10.7 - hopefully upgrading solves your problem.

Can I assume that you shut your computer down every night?

Have you tried trashing the preferences? That often fixes bugs.

[Giles]

I hardly ever shut it down….

[zwer]

That is definitely part of the problem. Shut it down every night and see if that doesn't make it run better.

[Giles]

OK, thx

[Giles]

& updating to Snow Lion has fixed me….....

[zwer]

Good to hear. I work in an office with 100 Macs. They can be temperamental.

Who's getting an iPhone 5?

[Mild7]

Yeah me.  Available here on the 21st Sept.

I'm in for one, even though the changes aren't as groundbreaking as some would like. It's all in the details to me anyway.

[bagley920]

I wish but no upgrade for me and def not paying full price.

@urbanwoodsman:

Me. But then again I've owned every iteration regardless of new features

[urbanwoodsman]

Yeah, even though the upgrades are nothing groundbreaking, it will be nice to have 4G and a faster processor. I've got an upgrade so I'm good. Also, my iphone4 power button has been fidgety for the last few months and hardly works, so it will be nice to get a new phone. Probably jump up to a 64gb from my current 32gb as well.

Wonder when they'll announce this iPad mini thing. Not that I need it.

Looking forward to my upgrade. Worked out a deal with my dad he goes to the Apple store 2am on the 21st and I buy him an iPhone 5 for waiting in line for me. My iPhone 4 home button has been broken for months.
