Changes applied, hopefully I will see a difference.

Pretty sure Apple would rather not have people poking around with root access. Figure Kodak would rather not as well. Maybe that's why they felt that bit out. If you are smart enough to figure out how you should be smart enough to modify things without screwing everything up.

I'd rather have stories told than be telling stories of what I could have done.

Quote from: frailer on December 21, 2010, 02:25:22 PMThis is a 'bug' of sorts, right? Are they likely to fix this in 10.7...whatever? Must be talking about 5% max of Mac users would be up to trying this...   :undecided:

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Apple to fix it. It affects anyone using network drives. SMB and AFP.

You should notice the difference in Workshop immediately after a reboot of the Mac.

One thing I like about Snow Leopard in Prepress...

When looking at a Finder window of our FTP site...when customers upload files the file size keeps growing right in the finder window as it uploads without any kind of refresh. Just like the OS 9 days. It only took them 6 major revisions to get there. :sarcasm:

Ha Ha Ha...I actually changed the video to protect the guilty. The bastids upgraded to Quark 8 this week and their files, as you can see, are huge. Around 130 mb for 30 pages.

A not so funny story about this customer that upgraded to Quark 8.5...I had been encouraging them to upgrade to InDesign for months. They called last night and thanked me and told me I was responsible for them being able to upgrade. So according to them it was ME that got them Quark 8.5. :puke: I protested.

That's sick, man.

Why are people voluntarily upgrading quark?

Their operators wanted InDesign but their management made the decision to upgrade from Q 6.5. Cheaper I assume.

:laugh: The magic is that the company isn't bankrupt yet. I will take pleasure in their demise...though I'd prefer if they would get their sh!t together and release a product that works and is *fun* to use like InDesign is...lololol. I think it's too far gone at this point in time.
