20 Nov 2009 09:00:36 PST

Written by Liam Cassidy

Podcast: Tracking Down Snow Leopard's Apple Events Bug

13 Oct 2009 13:44:38 PDT

Written by editors@tidbits.com (TidBITS Publishing)
At first I had been inclined to propose a theory that maybe some external force, such as a bad scripting addition, might be messing things up somehow. This was a reasonable guess, because the Snow Leopard transition to 64-bit has in fact caused existing 32-bit scripting additions to becom...
