Yup I think it works! :) Your iTunes playlists etc. are saved in Music/iTunes btw.

By the way, if you are having trouble with printing, such as not being able to add a printer (getting the dreaded "server-error-service-unavailable" error), it may be that cupsd (the printing daemon) isn't starting. I have made a small shell script that you can simply double click on to restart it. It will ask you if you are sure you want to run it, then ask for your password (since this action requires Administrator privileges). If anyone has run into this problem and wants the script, I can post it. Here is the code if you want to compile it yourself:

do shell script "sudo /System/Library/StartupItems/PrintingServices/PrintingServices start" with administrator privileges

I hope this helps someone :) This error can be a royal pain in the butt.

edit: by the way, you can get it to automatically enter your password by adding

password "yourpassword"

before "with administrator privileges". I didn't do this in my compiles script though, for security reasons.

I'm surprised how ****ed you guys are over a damn extra security measure. That's really sad that you won't take the extra half-a-second to click "Download". I know it can get annoying, but switching to a slower browser or even reinstalling an inferior OS just to get rid of it? That's really, really weird.

    • "No. The "New Outlook for Windows" does not support non-cloud mailboxes (such as on-premises Exchange servers). Furthermore, because the New Outlook effectively functions as a web-based client, it requires all connected accounts—even standard IMAP or POP accounts—to route and cache data through Microsoft's cloud servers. You can verify the accepted account setups using the Microsoft Supported Account Types Guide." Built to fail "New" Outlook is basically just webmail in a window wrapper and it's usefulness reflects that.
