well I have a 20gb 4G iPod so I guess I don't need the newest one since it was just for the iPod photo. but i'm not sure about the bluetooth update (1.2 or something?). i don't t…

Have you connected either device yet? Maybe Tiger is finally (thankfully) doing better checks on what it needs to download, and won't check for iPod updates unless you have actual…

LOL Ok, so where are the pictures of people's widgets??

Is it possible they were updated with Tiger? Check /Applications/Utilities to see if they are in there.

Is this normal? I had an iPod updater and Bluetooth that I was looking to install after I installed Tiger, but they aren't there anymore after installing Tiger. Thanks in advance

If you do a simple upgrade, you still have stuffit. Alternately if you did an archive & install you can search for all items that contain "stuff" in your archived system and r…

Yes, that is what threw me. I understand Apple in under NO obligation to include Stuff Expander in the OS. BUT, and here is the clincher, because IT WAS included in previous iterat…

Correct. SIT/SITX expansion was _never_ part of of any iteration of the Mac OS Finder. In previous releases of Mac OS Classic and Mac OS X, Apple did however install Stuffit Expand…

It looks like OS X will now natively extract tarballs too, and I believe gzipped/bzipped files too... nice

Yeah, only the built in .zip stuff in OS X will put the resource forks back properly. Sending a file to an OS 9 or below user would still need .sit.

Drakino, that's what I would have thought, but I swear, after clean installing Tiger, double clicking on both .sit and .zip files (and there were lots since I was reinstalling eve…

whoops. thanks, Geo. I'm confused, though, now. Moose, what program are you using to unstuff zips and sits? Believe me, I'm no fan of Stuffit, would love to Dumpit, but what are y…

Tugger, that address is ever so slightly wrong. Try again, without the s! www.macupdate.com

It IS odd that it didn't come with Tiger. For what it's worth, don't try to find it on Stuffit's site, they make you go through way too many steps to get to their free download. In…
