Replying to somebody off-list in Snow Leopard?

Hey all, in the headers of an email, when I interact with them , there is no longer a menu button that I can click on, to get options like replying to the sender of a message, and what I got in Leopard. Any idea how to do this same task in SL? --~--~-~--~~~-

Yes, this happens for me as well, since I installed snow leopard. The other thing is, when setting events to speak, the last 20 events or so all say the same thing, not sure why yet. On Aug 30, 2009, at 8:07 PM, Justin Harford wrote: > > Hi all > > Something strange, in adium, before each con

Hi, in order to getyour f11 and f12 to work, go in to keyboard preferences on the mac side, and choose the keyboard short cuts tab. Go down to the expose and dashboard area, and disable the features that use f11 and f12, that should allow these keys to work in fusion. On Aug 31, 2009, at 2:4

The easiest way to do this is to check the box that will set the time zone based on your location. The mac will then set the time zone based on the registration info you entered. On Aug 31, 2009, at 6:26 PM, Rich Ring wrote: > Hell friends: > I cannot seem to set my time zone correctly on my
