stumped the Apple Genius Bar.

Posted by llurpsienoodle on July 19, 2008, at 8:15:37

I had to get my h's iPhone (3G) replaced (faulty microphone hardware) and my iCal software serviced.

the problem started when I upgraded my OSX to 10.5.3

I would try to edit an event in my iCal, and this cute little black box would pop up.

I spent 45 mins on the phone with them, and then 60 minutes in the store. It was amusing to see them scratch their heads. Eventually they had to reinstall iCal using a non-corrupted hard-drive, and all is well again.

One of the 'geniuses' reminded me of my pdoc. It was eerie. I expected him to ask me whether I was still going to therapy and whether I needed any refills of my clonazepam. um, no, but my computer does.

My cell phone is so old it's ancient so I have no idea about these new gadgets. Boy does that make me sound old. Never a gadget person. Love Phillipa

If it makes you feel any younger, I do not have a cell phone. I don't want to be *that* accessible!

So I'm not the only one who kind of gets annoyed when driving seems about each car the person in on a cell phone. Now with the ear pieces people walk about and appear to be talking to themselves. Well that's interesting. Phillipa ps good for you guys without fancy things.
