Oh yeah, beware, Time Machine by it's nature will fill up an entire drive. It really needs it's own dedicated partition or hard drive to work.

"defaults write com.apple.systempreferences TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolume... 1"

I tried this 4 times and it failed, taking over an hour each time. I had to reinstall each time. I ended up doing a regular install. Afterwards I opened the migration assistant. This restored almost all my data with just three or four files not copying correctly. I'm pretty sure I could have recovered those files…

No, seriously, how do you do this in windows? If anyone cared, if you have another window open in finder and you want to get to that directory in the open/save dialog, just drag any file into the dialog and it'll take the tree there. I've tried this in windows and it just copies whatever file into the directory it's…

In a stroke of genius, or accident, I ended up with all my devices using mini-usb. That's the only cable I have sticking up on my desk. No this isn't useful advice, I'm just bragging.

Okayplayah, josephers, sounds like SAD. It's entirely possible your only symptom is needing more sleep, so don't panic. You may want to look up the different light treatments, they may help. Seasonal Affective Disorder.

Noooo. I had two of these sheets laying around for months and I couldn't think of what to do with them. I suggest turning the left over keys into refrigerator magnets. I had to dremel out the plastic inside the keys so they didn't stick out too far. I roughed up the front of over 100 disc magnets and just…
