Symbiotic Hat Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 I disable the service. I believe that before you send, it tells you what it is sending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spacedog Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 I always send error reportings, everytime an app crashes (which is a very rare event, I must admit). I bought my Powerbook, I bought the Panther upgrade, so I think I don't have anything to worry about :D And I know for sure that Apple engineers read bug reports. David Hyatt, chief developer of the Safari project, has said he and his team benefits a lot from the error reportings. Oh, and yes, you can see what information is been sent, so I'm sure there's no need of being paranoid about it (was it sent to Microsoft, on the other hand, would have been a completely different matter... ;) :p ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPeedY_B Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 Yup, In the rare occurrence I'm prompted to do so, I'll send it off :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mAcOdIn Veteran Posted March 11, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 11, 2004 I send 'em. Infact I decided to try tracking one for the first time just today so I'll see if that does anything and if they actually really follow up on stuff. I don't know exactly what goes out but it does tell you before it sends it, you have to click on it though to see. Personally I could care less.

wtmcgee Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 i do it, if it's an apple app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoochieMamma Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 I send them all the time :yes: I think that if microsoft/apple put something like that in their OS they would at least look at the error reports. Because if they dont why did they put it in as a part of XP/Pather if it doesnt do anything? PS: Iam assuming you are also talking about error reporting on different OS's (apple + microsoft) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theDose Posted March 11, 2004 Author Share Posted March 11, 2004 thanks timdorr, but i guess it could apply in both cases as i own both os's... i was just curious if anyone actually clicked on that "send" button for error reporting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTallack Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 I do, but the only program that ever usually crashes on me is Camino, which I'm using a nightly build of, so it makes sense. Now the question is, does the Camino team ever get to see those error reports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the question is, does the Camino team ever get to see those error reports? Probably not. I know the Adium team had to make their own reporter because they didn't get the reports sent by Panther.
