Is there a way to get out of using RSS in mail.app and go back to Safari?

Hello,
I am a big RSS user and have a pretty huge and unwieldy subscription list. When Leopard shipped, I started using mail.app to read my RSS. I went so far as to delete all of my subscriptions from Safari and rely entirely on mail.app.
As some of you may have noticed from other threads in this forum, RSS in mail.app seems to be not ready for primetime. Specifically, if I leave mail.app open for more than about an hour, the RSS feeds stop updating entirely or update sporadically. It is at this time when I will also invariably find a Database.sqlite3 file in my trash can (which prevents the trash can from being emptied, too).
If I restart mail.app, the feeds start updating again BUT INCLUDE HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF OLD ITEMS. This happens every time I restart mail.app now. I have read all of the other threads that suggest that perhaps dot mac bookmark synching is to blame. This cannot be in my case since I have it all turned off and am not a dot mac member. I have no plugins installed in mail.app or safari.
I have come to the conclusion that RSS in mail.app is too buggy and unreliable to be used and I would like to go back to Safari. The trouble is that when Leopard shipped, the idea of RSS in mail.app made perfect sense to me and I got so enthusiastic and "there's no going back" that I deleted my enormous amount of RSS subscriptions in Safari. Is there anyway to export my RSS subscriptions from mail.app so that I can import them into Safari? I REALLY don't want to try and add them again one by one.

here is a link to macosxhints.com that tells you how to output all of your feed URLs to a terminal window. from there you can cut and paste them into your new feed reader of choice...

and if you are in the marked for a new reader may i suggest David Watanabe's excellent NewsFire. he had just recently made it totally free as a gift to the macintosh community.
best of luck.

  • I don't want to do the recovery thing to my iPhone4, but my iPhone is at the stage in the update where it says to plug it into iTunes, is there some way to get out of this or save all of my data somehow?

    i don't want to do the recovery thing to my iPhone4, but my iPhone is at the stage in the update where it says to plug it into iTunes, is there some way to get out of this or save all of my data somehow?

    What do you mean the "update" says plug it into iTunes? If you have the iTunes logo/USB cord on the screen, it's in recovery mode or needs to be activated. Anything that was on the phone is already gone. You have no choice but to plug it into the computer. Hopefully, you backed it up before you started the update.
    If that's not what you mean, then please explain.
    Apple may or may not be able to fix the lock button for you without replacing the phone entirely. You'll have to take it in and ask.

  • So Wat to do? Is there any way to get out as a single swf file from captivate.

    Dear friends,
    I am beginner in Adobe Captivate. We have a E-learning
    project. We are using Dockers as our LMS. Previously we were using
    Flash for all. Now we are trying Captivate for better and faster
    results. I have few swf files and i inserted al files in Captivate
    and i published. So instead of getting single output, am getting
    all the swfs, skin swf and html file. Html file is accessing all
    swfs and works. But it is not working in Dockers. Single swf will
    only work in Dockers. So Wat to do? Is there any way to get out as
    a single swf file from captivate. please Help mee.
    Thanks
    Flashlover

    If 'Dockers' cannot handle a .zip file as the content and
    instead
    requires a single, uncompressed content file, then it is not
    SCORM-compliant. The SCORM specification requires the LMS to
    handle a
    'pif' file (most common is .zip) which contains the lesson
    and the
    required manifest file. If Dockers doesn't support that then
    you can't
    do SCORM-compliant content.

  • Is there a way to get a second free trial of an app on my iPad with a different iTunes acct

    Is there a way to get a second free trial of an app on my Ipad with a different Itunes acct and password?

    You will be logging out of your current ID to do this, so you will lose all of your apps and things for your other Apple ID, until you switch back.
    This seems like hard work to save a couple of dollars.

  • Is there a way to get an iPad to play one audio track and stop.

    Is there a way to get an iPad to play one audio track and stop.
    I work in education and particularly music. Teachers are looking to create a playlist of selected track but only want the selected track to play then stop.
    This allows them to talk to the class during presentation and not worry about having to stop playback mid discussion.
    I've been successful doing this from appleTVs homeshared to a library by unchecking songs in the playlist. But It would be useful to instructors who have there own media on their device.

    The only way to stop after a song is to create a playlist consisting of only that song.

    Yes, if you have iCloud set up on your phone and computer, then reminders will be synced through iCal.

  • Is there any way to get the query used in discoverer from backend??

    Hi All,
    I am new to dicoverer.
    Is there any way to get the query used in discoverer from backend??
    Thanks,
    Sachin

    Hi,
    you can view the SQL from within the discoverer menu:
    in desktop: View-> SQL Inspector
    in Plus: Tools-> Show SQL
    The SQL in the DB tables is encrypted so it's a problem getting it from there.
    You can export the workbook into SQL but it is not working for every worksheet (subquery, inline pivot tables...)
    you can create a batch file to export them all using the output of this script:
    select null,null,'echo off'
    from dual
    union all
    select distinct
    qs.qs_doc_name Workbook_name,
    qs.qs_doc_details Worksheet_Name,
    'start /wait <path>\dis51usr.exe /connect '||'&p_user_name'||'/'||'&p_password'||'@'||'&p_env'||' /apps_user /apps_responsibility "&responsibility" /opendb '||
    chr(34)||qs.qs_doc_name||chr(34)||' /sheet "'||qs.qs_doc_details||'"'||' /export SQL "C:\Export Discoverer SQL\'||qs.qs_doc_name||'-'||qs.qs_doc_details||'.sql" /batch'
    from eul_us.eul5_qpp_stats qs
    where qs.qs_doc_name is not null
    --order by 1,2
    union all
    select null,null,'echo off'
    from dual
    union all
    select null,null,'exit'
    from dual

  • Keep on getting double notification  from my default mail app, and gmail app, how do i make google my primary one?

    keep on getting double notification  from my default mail app, and gmail app, how do i make google my primary one? so that i dont have to get doulbe notifications  on both apps

    This is probably not the answer to all your questions, but I am sure it answers some.
    Unlike Word and InDesign, FrameMaker's anchored frames, which hold graphics, "hang" from their insertion points, typically at the end of the paragraph. An anchored frame that follows a paragraph is set to be below the line, the line being the last line in the paragraph. If you turn on View > Text Symbols, you will see a marker that indicates the point from which the anchored frame is hanging.
    If the anchored frame is taller than the available space, it is moved to the next page ALONG with that last line. If the paragraph style/tag has a widow/orphan lines number that is more than 1, then that number of lines are also moved to the next page, because the paragraph tag says to keep that many together, EVEN if there is space at the bottom of the previous page.
    So, you can set the widow/orphan lines number smaller OR as you have done put a blank line before the anchored frame, which now holds the marker for the anchored frame, and set its font size to 2 pt (the lowest FrameMaker allows) and its line height to zero. This is the standard workaround UNLESS you use the line above the anchored frame as the title/caption of a figure, which is also a typical way of dealing with FrameMaker's ways.
    To my knowledge, one cannot change the default of the checked cropped box. Maybe others know of some way to change this.
    There is no page break in FrameMaker, hence there is no symbol for it. In the paragraph designer for the paragraph, you set to Start of the paragraph to Top of page. Top of page is FrameMaker's equivalent to a page break. To "remove" a page break, set the Start of the paragraph to Anywhere.
    Since you are new to FrameMaker, I suggest reading throught the User Manual that comes with FrameMaker. You will likely find the answers to most of your questions there.
    Hope this helps,
    Van

    If you failed to maintain a backup copy, then you would have to import the disks again.

  • Is there a way to print out my itunes purchases, credits (from giftcards) and what is being charged to my credit ca

    Is there a way to print out my itunes purchases, credit (from gift cards) and what amounts are being charged to my actual credit card?  I have two children sharing this account (each with their own gift cards) and I'm trying to keep it fair on who spends what....etc.  PLEASE help.  I'm losing my mind! 

    The ability to connect to the printer or the G5 over the Internet will depend on your company's network. In the good ol' days of modems, you could use a dial-up connection to access your network remotely. Now with cable connections the same can be done, but there are a number of openings that need to be made by your IT dept to allow you access and to restrict others. So you should discuss your desire to remotely connect with them. They could share the printer so that once you are connected to your network, you could use IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) to connect to the printer share and still use the HP driver.

  • My mac keeps freezing on highlighting only way to get out of it is to power down and restart

    my mac keeps freezing on highlighting only way to get out of it is to force a power down and restart

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    No.

  • Is there any way to get accurate framing using the iPhone 5 camera?

    The iPhone 5 has a 16:9 screen, yet the photos are still produced in a 4:3 ratio.  So what you see on the screen while framing the shot with the native camera app is not the same as the photo you end up with on your camera roll.
    Is there any way to fix this?  I want my photos to look exactly like how they appear on the screen before I hit the shutter. 

    I just realized this just now cause there is always some extra frame added when I review my pics on camera roll. This site might illustrate the problem further..
    http://blog.crushapps.com/2012/09/with-the-iphone-5s-camera-app-what-you-see-is- not-what-you-get/
    The only solution Ive found is to use an ap Like Camera Asesome or Kitcam App they do use a 4:3 framing and take pics of exactly what you see on screen..
    However, I feel this is a design flaw by apple, you should be able to take a pic exactly to what you see on screen... I dont care if there is a black bar on top or in bottom(or both) on screen, rather than having an overscan of what your actually are saving on your phone. And its completely ridicoulous cause images appear with black bars when you review them on Camera Roll where the overscan would be nice (estetically wise , and a double click would reframe to what you actually took)
    Hope this answers your question..
