Re: iMac person
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýJeff, The only way I can think of would be the TimeMachine backups, you can see from below that there are several backups for each day¡ Inside the Documents portion all her items would be listed, as you see on mine. Then clicking on the Mac HD you can see what¡¯s on the Desktop. (Second screenshot). ? So, if the document in question was inside a folder in Documents on 3/5/20 but one of the backups on 3/6/20 showed it on the desktop, she knows when it was moved. I hope this helps, and hopefully she used TimeMachine. John

Re: iMac person
Sorry, Jeff, but I have no idea how to do that. ::-(

Do you pay for the dropbox 2TB or do you just use their free 2gb option?I used to pay for the extra DropBox space, but dropped it after iCloud became more reliable.

I keep current projects on DropBox periodically backed up to iCloud with a Keyboard Maestro script. This way the current working version of a project and a backup are both accessible from anywhere I happen to be. Also, DropBox works from Linux and iCloud doesn¡¯t. With my ongoing projects I have backups on iCloud and on my NAS at home because I don¡¯t really trust any of the online places. L^2 PS/ My daughter uses DropBox and pays for lots of storage.

iMac person
A friend of mine with an iMac lost her husband.? She has reason to believe that someone tampered with important financial documents on her computer after his passing.
Is there a way to look at the history to see when a page from the document was dragged to the desktop?? She doesn't need "legal" proof but does need to have enough info to confront the person who might have done this.? She was also the most recent person to open the document so having that info isn't enough. If you can help her, I'd like to put the 2 of you in touch with 1 another.
Thanks much,

Re: Dropbox vs. iCloud
Did you mean 200 terabytes (tb)? Or gigabytes?

Re: Wunderlist
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHarry, I¡¯ve never used Wanderlust, I¡¯m clueless about it¡¯s features.To organize my mess I use all Apple products, (I imagine that surprises you). All of them sync between every devise, updates are provided by Apple and not a third party to add features and plug holes are completed on the entire stable of products all at once. Calendar, Notes, and Reminders are all I need to keep myself upright. ?On the last screenshot you can see that Reminders allows you to attach items to the reminder. You are right, this Wanderlust is now in the stable of Microsoft, and like you I would now not have anything to do with it. John

Wunderlist
For the last 6 years I have used a great application - Wanderlust.
It is a todo list that syncs on my two macs and my iPhone and my iPad. Today I received a message from the Wunderlist team. They are ceasing support for Wanderlust and have created a new product called Microsoft ToDo. I use Wunderlist daily and hate to lose it and I am not sure I want to migrate to a product with Microsoft in its name. Do any of you use a todo list on your computer - one that syncs across platforms? What do you recommend? Thanks. Harry |

I¡¯ve used iCloud as my primary web backup for years, it¡¯s always worked perfectly. I use just enough on on Dropbox for important data files that it¡¯s free. John On Mar 3, 2020, at 7:47 PM, Harry Jacobson-Beyer <hejb44@...> wrote: |
Dropbox vs. iCloud
DropBox is upgrading my plan (not my choice) and giving me 200tb of space and charging me $130 a year (up from $100 a year). that is my only option.
I only have about 105gb of data on dropbox and less than 50gb of data on iCloud so I am going to up my iCloud storage to 200GB for $3.00 a month and move my data from Dropbox to iCloud. Does anyone know of any reason why I shouldn¡¯t do this? Thanks. Harry |

Re: Passwords: Longer is better than complicated
Haha, Lee! Two great lines! Literary masterpieces and cultural touchstones, both.
But aren¡¯t you concerned that they might be part of an already assembled list of literary biggies to try? Checking for length would get them a shorter list of quotes, titles or cultural references to try. Do you combine your phrase with some other element to throw it off?
