I got an email today from two of my friends who had sent an email to everyone notifying that their email had changed. Not willing to do this work every time someone changes something I thought, I can just grab this via Facebook. A while back I used Address Book Sync (http://danauclair.com/addressbooksync/) and that was great, but one day it stopped working. I checked it out again, and although the new version 1.4 locks up while syncing, it actually does some work while appearing locked, and after a while it had chewed through my friends list and was ready to update my friends. It categorized them in matched and unmatched, so I started by syncing everyone who was matched. That seemed fine, but it synced photos more than phone numbers and email addresses, which is what I'm after. A couple ...

Frustrated about not hearing about it being a priority in Lightroom at all? And still addicted to Lightroom? Yupp, me too. But this night, for reasons not related to this post, I thought, hey, perhaps Picasa can help out? What I found is too good to be true, so it's probably going to have all kinds of weird side-effects. But for now it seems to be great! You see, Picasa doesn't move the files out of place, and it works with XMP (which Aperture does not, even though it claims to). And of course, I save all changes in an XMP sidecar. This great article simply states that all face detection will be written back as ...
I've had a problem forever that when iTunes closes, it forgets the password to the iTunes store, and it forgets the password to my Audible account. I've Googled it once or twice but couldn't find the answer, and since I hardly ever close iTunes except for boots, and since Quicksilver is so fast to open 1Password to retrieve my passwords, it's only been a minor annoyance.

The last one worked for me, I moved the /Library/Preferences/com.audible.data.plist out of place, relaunched iTunes, entered the password, closed and reopened iTunes again, and it still works. Super! 
The new and old files differ not in size, ...
