OSX upgrade
Fri, 13 Nov 2009 19:35:45 +0000
Hi All,
I was talking to a local lad / neighbour just now and he asked me (!)
the best way to do an upgrade from Tiger to L / SL, on his TFT iMac.
I suggested there were two distinct trains of thought on this one ...
straight 'upgrade' and the 'wipe / fresh install'. I also mentioned
there were pros and cons ...

Imac - Core2Duo. Display problems
Fri, 13 Nov 2009 09:18:52 +0000
Had a power cut last night right in the middle of a session on my iMac. On
reboot I find I now have a line across the screen where the pixels are a
lighter colour than the background. I have tried changing backgrounds.
Any ideas out there as to what could be the problem? Is it the end of life
for my Mac?

Wi-Fi question
Fri, 13 Nov 2009 00:36:08 +0000
After ordering a iPhone, we got a text from Orange, containing a code
that consists of upper and lower case text. Unfortunately it got erased
before I could read it, fortunately a copy was made. My wife thought it
was something to do with Wi-Fi. We have no idea what it's used for, we
didn't need it to join our ...

Google Earth is always night
Thu, 12 Nov 2009 23:37:09 +0000
Using Google Earth on Tiger...
It's always night. This started a while ago; Google Earth would
start in night view, but I could get it back to the normal daylight
view by doing "Switch to Sky" and then "Switch to Earth" again.
Now, even that doesn't work.
Any workarounds?
