With the certification of Leopard, this "Big Three" UNIX gang is now the "Big Four" (HP, Sun, IBM, and Apple) To put it in perspective, no version of Linux is UNIX 03 certified. Also not the certification is for 10.5 on Intel - so 10.5 on PPC is not certified (most likely Apple didn't want to bother going through the process of certification for older systems... new Enterprise customers aren't going to be buying G5s) So nicely done Apple. :) http://www.opengroup.org/openbrand/register/brand3555.htm -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Apple Recycling .... at a special event on Tuesday Aug 7, 2007 at 10AM ... along side all of the recycling departments at the CRC. We are honored to be included ... since we are the new kids on the block. We thank the many Apple user group volunteers who have spent their time at the CRC to make all this happen for the Apple computers that filter through the CRC ... into our hands and then back out into the hands of appreciative families. As we shake hands with the Mayor and other dignitaries at this high profile event on Tuesday August 7 at 10AM .... Marty Swartz and Dave Sevick ( Bob Donaldson and Peter Carras could not get off work ) will make sure all your Apple volunteer efforts are noticed. Thanks again everyone for your efforts .... as we ramp up for what will be a tremendous fall 2007 season. In the upcoming weeks we will be outfitted with new equipment and an updated warehouse working environment ( new fans and new chairs ) that will support 30-40 supervised volunteers at a time in the CRC .... in the form of visiting groups from schools and churches and other organizations. We are taking our success we've had with other visiting schools , like St. Alphonsus of Wexford, and building on that system of one-day-group working sessions. We have been blessed with some private donations to allow this all take place. So look for Bob and Marty and Peter and me to be announcing many improvements ...... soon ......

I've not seen this problem before, but here's some common fixes for Word goofyness: 1) Delete the "normal" template - do a spotlight search for anything called "Normal" and delete it. This is the template Word uses when opening a document, and when it gets corrupt all sorts of strange things happen. If it's deleted, Word will create a new, fresh, copy. 2) Delete preferences - anything that says "Word" in ~/Library/ Preferences - com.microsoft.word.plist and the stuff in the Office folder. Same reason as above, and they'll recreate 3) Update Office to the latest version - use the AutoUpdater or visit MS's site. 4) Reinstall Office.

To turn off full-screen mode and switch to the previous view, click Close Full Screen on the Full Screen toolbar, or press APPLEKEY+PERIOD. Those commands are for documents opened in Word but I am hoping it might work on the help screen. My only other suggestion is for him to go to his "Force Quit" Menu and see if Word Help is running separately from Word and choose to close it from there. Hope that helps!

A group of us worked from 8A-Noon today moving and sorting Apple-Mac stuff. It was very exciting. I learned how to move wooden pallets with a non pallet pallet mover. They are such fun to steer. You walk them like a dog, you don't push or you'll not go where you want to. Our dedicated Mac recycling guys are just fantastic. I won't mention names, you get emails from them. They really could use the help whenever those volunteer days are. You just got an email on that too. It's all for a good cause to get computers in to the hands of people who normally wouldn't have them AND to get the worn out tired old chemically filled Macs out of landfills and put those chemicals into responsible hands. You don't have to know much to help out. If you use a computer, you know enough. It's easy to get to and from the Lawrenceville site even with all of the details as some of us can attest to. See you there! Barb A moral compass can only point you in the right direction, but can't make you go there. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You will never need to worry about lost information. It's ultra-easy to backup your files. And because it is stored offsite, you can backup or retrieve your files anywhere, anytime. If 10 Gb is not enough, you may buy extra space. Apple did it right. http://www.apple.com/dotmac/ And speaking of right, a 30-day trial version of iWorks '08 is available. Really beautiful software.

Today was another milestone in our efforts to rehabilitate donated Macs. We did 13 Macs today, bringing our total to an even 850 Macintoshes. Please mark your calendars for Friday, Sept. 7, and Saturday, Sept. 8. Goodwill will be having another computer warehouse sale at the Lawrenceville warehouse. We will be able to have a work day that Saturday, Sept. 8, so all of you who haven't been able to drop by on our Friday workdays now have a chance to make it on a Saturday. We hope this will become a regular monthly event for us. We need people with all kinds of talents during the sale days. If you're not into rehabilitating a Mac, you can help answer Mac questions for customers on the sales floor, or help out sorting and testing RAM, or our all-time favorite, testing and cleaning keyboards. You'll be mesmerized by the dancing fingers of John Hamill and Diane Greenberg as they can really turn out those keyboards... If you're into romance, we have recently rehabilitated tower Macs that need to be married to monitors and keyboards. Just say "I do" and we'll make you Mac clergy... And if, by chance, you don't want to do Mac-related stuff, Goodwill could use a hand with other tasks at the warehouse. We will have something for everyone that Saturday. And use of the sauna is free for everyone :-) Robert A.

Message-ID: <73EE4A5A-4A6D-4AD1-B4FB-9637DEACAB07@mac.com> COWMUG goes on the road in September! For our September meeting we will try something different - a visit to the Goodwill Computer Recycling Center in Pittsburgh's Lawrenceville neighborhood. That's the new home of the project started by Dave Sevick and Bob Donaldson in which volunteers refurbish used Macs for resale or "hand-up" to community groups. Nicknamed The Apple Orchard, it is in one corner of a big warehouse where Goodwill employees disassemble old computers for re-use or recycling. The building also has training rooms, and that's where our meeting will start. In the second hour we'll tour the recycling facility. You haven't lived until you've seen row after row after row of brightly colored iMacs, or run your hands through a four-foot wide bin of RAM chips! Plan on leaving home or work early so that you can join us in Pittsburgh this month. If you would like a ride, car-pools will assemble at the Monroeville Public Library and depart from there by 6:30. How to get there: The Computer Recycling Center is just west of Butler Street, at 55 55th Street in Pittsburgh. You can take the Parkway East to Churchill, then follow Beulah Road-Coal Hollow Road-Sandy Creek Road to Allegheny River Boulevard. Turn left on Allegheny River Boulevard. About two miles past the Highland Park Bridge turn right onto 55th Street. Alternatively, you can tale the Parkway East into Pittsburgh. Take exit 2B to the Boulevard of the Allies, then I-579 (Crosstown Boulevard) to Bigelow Boulevard. Turn left onto Herron Avenue and follow it downhill. Cross Liberty Avenue and Penn Avenue, turn right onto Butler Street, and about two miles later turn left on 55th Street. The parking lot for the Goodwill Computer Recycling Center is on the right, just across the railroad track. -- Peter L.
