GLIMS-Any feedback from people who have tried it?

I was reading/participating in a thread with comments from those of us who prefered having two search windows in Safari and one participant suggested GLIMS. It looks very interesting, but I'm always nervous about adding someone. I'd be very interested in comments and feedback from anyone who has tried or is currently using Glims.
Information is at this link:
http://www.machangout.com
Thanks! FYI: I'm using Lion, version 10.7.4 with Safari 6.0 on my desktop iMac.

Glims is entirely trustworthy and works a treat.
If you want to fix your Google search to a specific Google location, or a specific search engine, I recommend that you download and install the free plug-in Glims:
http://www.machangout.com/
which not only does that but much more equally useful stuff! Such as enabling Safari to run full-screen, and more.)
(It adds items to Safari Preferences).
Not only does it already list a number of search engines and regions, but you can also add any other search engine not already listed in Glims by using the method described here:
http://www.machangout.com/tutorials/addsearchengine
Just enter the name you give the search engine in the name field, and the URL for it in the Query URL field.

Is BT infinity good, feedback from people who have...

So my area just got enabled for Fiber Optic and now have a selection of ISP to choose from. At the moment I'm with Sky Boradband Unlimited and they've been perfect. They have offered me a fanstistic deal which is still cheaper than what is BT offering. My question is though is BT Infinity good, I know a lot of people who are with BT at the moment and all they've had is trouble.

I have had no problems at all with Infinity 2 and the home hub 3. I run a MAC (desktop and aptop)an iPad, an androd tablet, two phones, BTVision, Apple TV, OnLive games console all without problems.

Traded in my iPhone for a different brand of phone. I had no idea that I had to sign out of iMessage before doing this. Now, my old phone is gone and my new phone cannot receive texts from people who have iphones and had me as a contact before. They try to send an iMessage and I have no way to receive an iMessgae now. On some server somwhere my AppleID still tells people they should send me iMessages. What is the solution to this issue? Deleting my AppleID would work to solve this issue, but I cannot ever delete the ID? What can Apple do for this?

If you did not erase your apps and data before getting rid of your old phone, try using Find My Phone and erasing everything remotely. See if this works.

Lost my Iphone 4g, hooked up old 3gs, can't get messages from people who have me registered with ichat

Anyone who I had previously used iChat with, can no longer send me texts now that I have had to downgrade back to a 3Gs.
Lost my Iphone 4g, hooked up old 3gs, can't get messages from people who have me registered with ichat.
My carrier (Rogers) says they have nothing they can do about it.
Thanks in advance.

Correction - iMessage, not iChat. Too early....

Looking for feedback from those who have installed Windows

I have an Intel iMac - brilliant machine, I love it. I have not installed Windows : I just don't have the need to justify doing it, but I'm glad to know I can if I do need, or just want to.
Having a Mac is almost like being immune to viruses (almost - I'm not careless). Everytime I use a PC there are message about viruses - it must drive them crazy! And to install Windows on my iMac would render it vulnerable.
I'm just looking for feedback from those who have taken the plunge: how's it working for you? I'm not so concerned about the speed...more so about .exe files running amok.
There is no way I will install Windows without a valid need and hearing at least a couple of first hand user experiences

I HAVE SPENT 1 HOUR TODAY AT THE APPLE SHOP ASKING THE GENIUS GUY - WHY ARE APPLE COMPUTERS IMMUNE TO VIRUS AND HOW DO I PROTECT MY PERSONAL INFORMATION FROM BEING INTERROGATED AND TRANSMITTED TO THE OUTSIDE WORLD.
MY QUERY STEMS FROM EMAILS - IF THEY HAVE A PICTURE ATTACHED THE MACHINE WILL NOT OPEN THE PICTURES - THE MESSAGE SAYS TO PROTECT MY IDENTITY CLICK HERE IF YOU WISH TO DOWNLOAD. I HAVE TO MAKE A JUDGEMENT TO TRUST THE SITE WHICH SEEMS ODD AND SO WHEN I ALLOW THE DOWN - I DO WONDER WHAT IS GOING ON.
I DO RUN A SEPARATE PC AND WHEN I DOWN LOAD THE MAILS ONTO THAT COMPUTER MY NORTON ENGAGES AND WARNS OF INFORMATION OF PRIVATE NATURE BEING ATTEMPTED TO BE TRANSMITTED - AT THAT STAGE I CAN STOP THE TRANSMISSION - ON THE MAC I HAVE NO MEANS - THE GENIUS GUY SAYS DON'T WORRY.
HELP - CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT IS IT ABOUT MAC THAT WOULD SETTLE MY CONCERNS AND ALLOW ME TO DOWN LOAD IMAGES CONTAINED IN EMAIL WITHOUT WORRY OF THE COMPUTER BEING FRISKED FOR DATA AND IT BEING TRANSMITTED INTO THE OUTSIDE WORLD.

Feedback from users who have hit disk full on their TM backup Volume

I'm very curious about user experiences whose TM backups have encountered a disk full condition.
For example...
How did you handle it ?
Where you informed of oldest backups being deleted before or after they were actually deleted by TM ?
Did you restart TM backups on the same Volume ?
Did you switch TM to backups to another Volume ?
Did you attempt to copy the TM backups from the full Volume to another larger Volume ?
Did TM backup behave sensibly or did it cause severe issues like hanging or just spinning and spinning or aborting without any error message displayed ?
If it failed and you saw the red "Failed" and the "i" icon that can be clicked for more information on the failure, did the extra informative information help you dealing with the disk full situation ?
If extra information was displayed for the failure did you fully understand the various options provide to you ?
Did you simply give up and stop running TM backups ?
Did you go into the TM backup folder and delete some of the backups and if so, how did you decide which ones to delete ?
Did you use the TM browser to find some files/folder to completely erase from the backups ?
Thanks....

Thank you Barry for such a detailed way to ask.
This will help a lot (once again...) for future enhancements and improvements!
_How did you handle your disk full condition ?_
No problem.
_Were you informed of oldest backups being deleted before or after they were actually deleted by TM ?_
Before. I could choose between this or switching to another volume.
_Did you restart TM backups on the same Volume ?_
Firstly tried this. It worked.
_Did you switch TM to backups to another Volume ?_
Then I chose this. It works too.
_Did you attempt to copy the TM backups from the full Volume to another larger Volume ?_
No. I wish this was feasible from within TM preferences, so waiting for a new feature, rather than tinkering with hidden files will be my choice. Until then, this drive is "not available".
_Did TM backup behave sensibly or did it cause severe issues...?_
Sensibly I guess. I just don't care whether TM is done, I just sleep my Mac when it's time and all is well so far.
_If it failed and you saw the red "Failed" and the "i" icon (...) did the extra informative information help you (...) ?_
No. I was just testing a volume that I knew already was too small. Seemed to me it just reacted the correct way, quite late/slowly though.
_If extra information was displayed for the failure did you fully understand the various options provide to you ?_
I guess not because I don't remember it, as when usually I can not learn anything useful from it.
_Did you simply give up and stop running TM backups ?_
TM works fine here. No reason to give up (but I'm waiting for future enhancements for sure).
_Did you go into the TM backup folder and delete some of the backups and if so, how did you decide which ones to delete ?_
No, I didn't. I would like this to be handled from within some feature or command in the Preference pane. I don't dare to mess with some special indexing or such smart thing TM does.
_Did you use the TM browser to find some files/folder to completely erase from the backups ?_
I don't know how to do that.

Thanks to you...

Re: Is BT infinity good, feedback from people who ...

hi All,
I have attempted to get supafst broad now for nearly 5 weeks AFTER the installation date. To say that it has been a diisaster is an understatement..
firstly noise on the phone line making it unuseable and very slow Broad band... repeated requests to get it sorted. Oh yes sir it is now working perfectly. ie no phone atall for nearly 2 weeks NOTHING
continuese stream of emails tryng to get it fixed.. the broadband is so slow is is like the old dial up fully 20% of what has been promised..
in a word NO. it drops out constantly and is no better than my awfull virging media broadband, which i have had to keep running as the BT cannot be relied upon...
Engineer coming tomorrow. Have told them if it is not fixed by the end of the week they can take it all out, Complete waste of my time.. My advice ask around who in your area who has a service that actually works...
**bleep** off of Brighton....

if you have a noisy phone line then you need to report it as a phone fault on 151 it is not a broadband issue once the noise is removed then broadband will improve

My bad Eric. The startup preference recognizes the primary as a 10.8.3 startup volume but when u select it the system does not boot. I can only boot from my external backup drive

It's just the Google homepage tribute to Pacman turning 30 today. A playable game starts up automatically, use the arrow keys to move Pacman. It's fun!
You can get Ms Pacman to appear in that game by clicking the "insert coin" button twice and using the WASD keys to move :)
You can also just change your homepage to something other than google until tomorrow.
