MGG 396: Two Mac Geeks with Your Mac Fix(es)

It’s the first Monday in May and you know what that means: yep, just like (most!) every other Monday a new Mac Geek Gab is up for your listening pleasure! This week, John and Dave solve your questions about those pesky Firewall “incoming connection” warnings, how to choose an iPad (old versus new), Data Detectors in Mail, monitoring Time Machine a little more closely, and more. Additionally, some new tips about getting even better Apple Genius Bar support, blocking Flashback with OpenDNS, resetting your printing system and managing your Mac life with anti-virus software are included as well. Cool Stuff Found is in there, too, but you’ll have to listen to see what that is all about. What are you waiting for? It’s free! Just download and enjoy.
