If your Address Book is running as a 64bit application there may be a slight chance that launching it as a 32bit application (there should be a checkbox for that in the Finder’s Information window for the Address Book application) could help.

Can’t believe this software is almost 10 years old now!

Great that you are finding UnicodeChecker useful!

I just checked the URL-escape command in the Utilities window and agree that the solidus should be escaped when the »Escape all codepoints« option is turned on. So I guess this is a bug of some sort and will check with Steffen when he is back from his holidays.

If you don’t mind using AppleScript, you can still invoke this feature through UnicodeChecker’s AppleScript support in the current version using a script like

tell application "UnicodeChecker" to escape "ä/b" to URL without preserving default set

This returns “%C3%A4%2F%62” which I suppose to be the result you expected.

But a question regarding its URL escaping feature. What does «escape all code points» really mean? Could you explain by an example? The reason I ask you to provide an example is that I suspect that it has a bug. You see, I would have expected that when it is enabled, then even characters like the «/» (solidus) would be escaped. However, it does nothing when I serve it a solidus — it just leaves it unescaped.

Is this a bug or have not understood what hte «escape all code points» feature is supposed to do?

Thanks for your reply! Yes, the address is working (if { “Status”: { “code”: 610, “request”: “geocode” } }

is the result it should show…)

Ouups. I blocked www-google-analytics.l.google.com in my firewall for all programs - removing that rule helped, now its working! (-: Thank you for your help! Oliver

Sounds exactly like the program I was looking for - unfortunately, its not working (any more): when I try to look up the addresses, the connection to the server cannot be established… )-: Cheers Oliver

Yes, TimeMachine does not follow symlinks (which is probably the right thing to do by design).

What should solve your problem is going to the Options sheet in Time Machine System Preferences. There, your external volume is probably set to be excluded from backups. Time Machine seems to do that by default for external volumes. Try removing it from the list.

Time Machine backup appears to only save the link file and not the content out at the USB drive. If I click within time machine on the links you can see the reference from the tim machine backup folder revert back to the USB drive.

Is there any way to make time machine follow those three links out to the external USB drive and back up that content too?

Thanks

Kodak made a number of these folding Retina cameras - The Retina Ib (small b) you mention was the direct predecessor to your camera, essentially the same camera (same lens and shutter) but with a much smaller viewfinder.

The IIIC (big C) looked very similar to the IB you have but had a range-finder and came with a ‘better’ f2 xenon lens (there is some debate about whether it is actually sharper than the f2.8 xenar on the IB).

The IIIC also allowed lens swapping for 35mm and 80mm lens; these weren’t compatible with the rear set on the ib/IB.

You can download the latest Unicode Data files and place them in a Library/Application Support/UnicodeChecker/Unicode Data Folder and UnicodeChecker will use those files as described in the Unicode Data Files section of the Help.

Please note that Apple decided to make the Library folder in your home folder invisible in MacOS X.7. So you’ll have to use the ‘Go to Folder’ (Command-Shift-F) command in your home folder and type in ‘Library’ to get there.

It’s a great application. Thanks at first.

My question is how to use latest data, for example the Unicode 6.1.0 and latest UniHan data etc. Please give some hint.
