Infractions are semi-automated reminders, which the moderators usually use instead of individually written private message to save time, ensure consistency, and to maintain our records. Some forum sites use infractions with associated "points" to ban users when they reach a certain threshold, but we don't. Common sense tells us that warnings and reminders are usually all that's needed when users stray outside the rules (anything from minor issues to major violations).
If a user consistently breaks a rule and ignores warnings then the moderators look at the seriousness of the rule and the violations, the individual circumstances, the user's overall history, and any communications from the user to decide if they think the user can be convinced to observe the rules using further discipline, typically a temporary forum suspension. If the bad habits still don't change then a permanent ban is eventually called for. This path of escalation is necessarily faster for serious problems but is intended to give users a chance to comply as well as to understand what's expected of them under the rules.
Whats the point of banning if they can just make a new user?

Those settings should certainly stick. Is this running the latest 10.6 release? (10.6.5)
Maybe reboot and see if anything gets fixed.

I wish I could get a free iMac! Even the first generations still pop up on craigslist and sell for $50 here. Haha, also makes me feel old... I remember in Elementary School when they introduced those machines and we got a lab of them to replace PowerMac 5200s... ahh how time changes.

Arse to that.
There will be plenty of stock to go round, so no idiot e-Bay price inflation.
Actually I'm hearing the black one will be extremely limited. The normal white one in quantity to quickly follow.

I find often times the store makes the bundles. Pisses me off to no end. I do not mind if MS throws the game in for free but like you I hate bundles.
I know with the Wii it was the stores making the bundles making you buy all the extra games for it. After that I have noticed that they tend to do it more and more often so people will just settle and buy the bundles.

I found this interesting:
Notebook Owners
Your one-year warranty includes replacement coverage for a defective battery. You can extend your replacement coverage for a defective battery to three years from the date of your notebook purchase with the AppleCare Protection Plan. However, the AppleCare Protection Plan for notebook computers does not cover batteries that have failed or are exhibiting diminished capacity except when the failure or diminished capacity is the result of a manufacturing defect. Apple offers a battery replacement service for MacBook Air and all MacBook Pro notebooks with built-in batteries. You can purchase replacement batteries for late models of Apple notebooks directly from the Apple Store.
So what constitutes defective. Is there are criteria for measuring this that is disclosed or it it up to the repair tech?
The way I view this is that it essentially means 99.99% of the time the battery is not covered.

Open the Console.app in the Utilities folder. Bring up the context menu on each log listed on the left hand side and hit Reveal in Finder. It is perfectly safe to delete them all. Yes those logs will get MASSIVE. Afterward you should empty the Trash.
Okay !!
But do you think after 5 years of use it be more 15 GB the logs?

Hello everyone,
I am new to Objectvice C and just started learning it.
The situation that I cannot resolve is pretty trivial, I am sure there is something simple I am missing. I created Fraction.m class in my test project in XCode using Source -> Add -> New File ->Objectvie C Class. I filled the .h file with the members and implemented all of them in the *m file. Afterwards I am trying to instantiate this Fraction class in my Program.h class in the main function.
I tried to include the .h file through #import <Fraction.h> directive but I get compiler error "No such file ore directory". Also whenever I am trying to use Fraction class, I get compiler error that Fraction is not defined. Though intellisense in the XCode code editor is seeing both "Fraction.h" and Fraction class. I am sure that there are no compilation errors in the Fraction.h and Fraction.m.
Thanks.

About a week ago I got a new MBP 17". I wanted to upgrade the RAM, but let the sales guy talk me out of it. Well, my last day to return is this saturday. Would I be able to get the "upgrade" price if I took it in or would they try to make me pay full price?
I think I should be able to get the upgrade price as I could still return it and buy a new one with the memory I want.
Anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks.

Im using an Intel 320 SSD in my MacBook Pro 15" 2010 and its amazing. The biggest difference is boot times and application startup times. I was annoyed when my MacBook Air with a C2D felt faster than my MacBook Pro with an i5, so i installed this new ssd and reinstalled the OS, now its the fastest computer i've ever used.
I chose Intel mainly because of the trustworthy brand and they seemed to be doing quite well with the X25 series. SSD's are certainly worth it, im never going to buy/build a computer without an SSD in future- its the best upgrade possible.

The malware uses social engineering to trick users into authenticating installation.
This can't be stressed too strongly. As we've said repeatedly, the malware that exists for Mac OS X can be avoided/thwarted by a user exercising common sense and having some education. The primary weakness of any computer is not the OS being used, but the user. Prudent computer users can't simply install some anti-virus app and think they're protected against any threat. Anti-virus isn't the solution. A Mac user who is aware of what kinds of malware exist and what kind of behaviors expose them to risk can operate malware-free without the need for anti-virus software.

One more question: Is the soap essential or is it just to keep the skin sliding for readjustment?
I'm not sure, but it probably plays a role in activating the adhesive. You should probably use the soap just in case.

Hello everyone
I would like to listen to your thought about the direction apple is taking. As you know the Keynote was only about iPhone.
This has to be the least hyped(and cared about) keynote since steve jobs returned to Apple. I didnt even know when it was going to be until I read on a videogame website that there was this 3d game for the new iphone.
The keynote when it had breakthrough inventions, and great "one more things", where original imac and imac flat panel was introduced, os x, and many great things...now we only hear about one of apple's gadgets and it is the iphone.
I do realize the apple is smart to increase its money and move into the future by not eating more of the PC market where it is hard and competitive but to go into new markets like they did with ipod and itunes. But I believe Apple is starting to neglect the computer market.
A whole keynote about iphone? its supposed to be for mac computers and a section for iphone. This clearly showed in leopard where a lot of people complained about it and it wasnt breakthrough like its previous brothers.
Apple computers and software is not bad, its just being neglected. I am afraid that Apple is no longer creating great computers that beat out other pc's. They are halting that, and concentrating on entertainment(movies & music) and other gadgets...iphone,ipod, apple tv, airport...etc.
I recall a day where people swear by their macs, people are happy and proud to run their mac computer. Now its just, i will get mac because its the next cool thing...but that iphone, thats GREAT!
Does apple not care about their core business, computing? its clear since they changed Apple computers to Appl INC.
The way I see it, apple is slowly neglecting the computer market, and moving toward entertainment and gadgets. I am afraid the day will come where we will see OS X on non apple hardware. Things arent like they used to be, and I do not see apple pushing more toward people switching to macs, but more on spreading iphone and ipod.

Heyyy everyone,
Just wondering if anyone has seen or owns an iPhone 4 replacement back that happens to have a kickstand?
I know there are plenty of cases out there that have kickstands, but I think a replacement back with one would be pretty cool.
And if not, can anyone recommend a nice thin clear case with kickstand? Thanks!
Cheers,
KP
EDIT: Too many Forum tabs open... Whoops! =\

No. It's not related to any dislike between Apple and Oracle. I believe it was timed purposely to keep Java applications out of the new Mac App Store.
Don't forget the IcedTea project. This is related to OpenJDK, and already has a working Mac implementation.
My take on the announcement is that Apple is ensuring that OSX will be more open to installation of such software and not requiring Apple's developers to reimplement versions of Java as they come out. I suspect Apple wants to use their development staff for Apple-specific software.
I don't think the Mac App Store has any relevance to the discussion.
Oracle's announcements at the JavaOne 2010 meeting seems to promise bringing Java as a platform back from the dead -- something Sun was having problems doing. The Oracle promise of rapid progress of the Java platform would make it difficult/expensive for Apple to keep up and still be a viable platform for Java development.
I think Jobs' announcement is a positive sign.

You can still combine/publish those in a way that would make them most accessible to small screens including Android phones. With a webapp you can still get an icon on the iPhone/iPad screen and get your content where you need it.
