brc64 posted:Tangent: How do you "click" a button in a dialog box that isn't the default button? I can tab between them, and highlight one, but pressing Enter seems to just hit the default button. In Windows, I'd use space to press the selected button, but that didn't work for me yesterday. On Snow Leopard, I seem to recall being able to hit Command+[First Letter of the Button], but that doesn't work on every dialog box.

Stare-Out posted:Is there any kind of small piece of software that automatically switches desktop wallpapers at certain times of day? I know OSX has this sort of thing in it by default, but I'd like to set the time when the wallpaper changes myself (ie. switch from a brighter wallpaper to something darker when it's 6pm and back at 6am or something). This is kind of a silly workaround, but you could set up a folder of wallpapers and set OS X to cycle through them. Since OS X has options for "Change Wallpaper Every Hour" and "Every Day", but not "Every 12 Hours", you could make 12 copies of your brighter wallpaper and 12 copies of your darker wallpaper. Then make sure the "random order" box is unselected, and the wallpapers should appear to change twice a day.

Clank posted:What's a good note taking application? Not just quick notes, but like school notes. Things I would like most are good organization and good formatting options. Personally, I used Journler for the first semester of law school, then Pages, and finally settled on Omni Outliner Pro. It depends if you like having a database of files, or a series of paragraphs, or a flexible outline. I recommend OOP because I really like thinking in outline form.

Choadmaster posted:Yeah, we tried rEFIt, along two different ways of getting the USB stick ready with the Windows install, and both just result in the message "no bootable device detected" (paraphrased, I don't remember the exact wording). Piggybacking on that smart question, I have a stupid question. I have a Boot Camp partition already installed on my HDD. If I get an SSD and an Optibay thing, is the EFI going to check both the SSD and the HDD for bootable partitions? Or am I going to run into the problem you guys are having?

marmot25 posted:I just added it to my pile of secure notes. It's not ideal, but it's still easily findable in a pinch. There's also a "Notes" field for any login. It obviously won't autofill, but it keeps your Security Questions sorted with the login they belong to. I don't know how many Security Questions you're keeping track of, but it couldn't hurt.

japtor posted:MarcoPolo is one that's been around for a while, but it looks like there's other options too these days (they showed up when I searched for MarcoPolo). No experience with any of them though. I used MarcoPolo for years until it stopped working well/at all when I upgraded to Lion. Nowadays, I'm using Control Plane. Works like a charm, has an active developer, and has a few more settings than MarcoPolo. Can't recommend it enough.

WarTribble posted:This unhelpful message has been popping up today on my desktop. Coincidentally I also installed MS Office today. I am too paranoid to click Run. Could it be an Office message or something else? (quitting Office doesn't close it). That couldn't look sketchier unless the "Location" ended in .ru.

DarkJC posted:Yeah, iCloud Photo Library is what they're calling the new feature that uploads everything, and I don't think those photos appear in your iCloud Drive. But, I haven't used the Yosemite developer preview to know for sure. We'll probably have a better idea of how it works as the betas progress. I haven't seen anything about it yet; have they even turned on the iOS 8/Yosemite version of iCloud?
