Hmm, I didn’t know Mac’s had security flaws.

So much for Apple suing, or being malicious towards, those who expose security flaws.

HELP! Please reply in words an eight-year-old can understand. LOL!

I have OS10.4.9. I’ve had Mac for six years, and I am STILL mentally confused by all the years I’ve spent on PC. (UGH) I use my computer ONLY at home, and I have no one to advise me.

I don’t do anything that requires final cut. Is that for users who do movies?

Can I ignore the latest software update and still use my old, original copy of Quick Time? Or will it affect the usual times Quick Time (not Pro) uses?

Does this question even make sense?

The ONLY problem with Mac is that if you use it at home there is NO ONE to help you through the complicated geek talk. You people are so far ahead of us commoners.

I am eager to learn.
