Apple Portables: Battery may not show a full charge in Mac OS X – StumbleUpon. I have never had anyone ask this, but still its good to know. I wonder why the Intel platforms have a lower discharge threshold?

Software Update will not recognize an…: Apple Support Communities. Thanks Joey! I wonder why HP just doesn’t say that?

This problem can be solved by removing the following directory and then installing the update via Software Update

HD/Library/Printers/hp/Frameworks/HPSmartX.framework

Mail Send Failed – “Milter rejected…: Apple Support Communities. Interesting. The work arounds seem to be two things:

  1. Turn off SSL
  2. Change from smtp.mac.com on part: 587 to port 25.
  3. Get another email provider

Thanks cathy fasano. Nicely done!

Go to System Preferences (under the apple) and Software Update is about the middle of the “Systems” line. On the bottom of the Pref panel for SW Update there are check boxes for checking automatically and downloading automatically. If you spend any significant amount of time attached via an expensive or slow connection, turn them both off.

I would turn off “download automatically” under any circumstances — when you are trying to do something and it runs really slowly, it’s pretty frustrating to realize that it’s because your computer was downloading 500MB of printer driver updates for a printer that broke and you threw in the trash two years ago!
