Show Notes
It's Sunday morning, and John and Dave are here to help you get the most out of your Mac-filled week. The show starts with some quick questions about solving identity confusion (on your Mac, anyway), hiding login items, and diagnosing an odd noise. Then it's time to start digging deeper into Network issues, auto-logout problems, and your geeks even talk about the best way to manage archives. All this plus a great bunch of tips, too. Can't beat it. Download today and enjoy!
