Hello:
I used to know how to create a message so that messages from a specific person
can go to it's own mailbox but I forgot how to do it, as I haven't used my mac
in a while. I attempted to do it lat night, it kept saying create message rules
but when I pressed enter, it went back to the mess
Actually, the command line versus cut/paste issue is as controversial as
ever. I would say that in linux, I still do 90% of my file management
at the command line.
If you open a terminal window on a Mac, you get the bash shell. This is
important in that it gives you something called file name

Please ignore my previous SOS message. There must have been something wrong

I don't know about cut. But perl is on your Mac. And you can install
additional perl modules from CPAN like you would in linux or solaris.
If you've got perl, you can do anything at the command line.

That may be so, but it doesn’t appear to offer any more than just accessing

And you can add Facebook to your favourites if you use it often enough, and get
to it by pressing CMD+a number in Safari, so it's pretty easy to get there via

Once the phone is activated you shouldn’t need to reactivate it.
The sim, someone might need to change it out, I’d assume. It sounds like it may
be defective but can’t say for sure.
I’d suggest someone test the sim that you have in another iPhone just in case,

You probably don't have to go back and forth to the Sprint store and Apple
