Not sure if this question have been asked here.
I have a somewhat "big" problem. My OSX doesn't "refresh" by itself. E.g I download a zip file to my Desktop. When the download is complete, it doesn't show in my Desktop. Even when i unzip the file thru the Firefox download box, the contain still doesn't show in my Desktop.
I got myself a temporary fix, a "refresh" AppleScript. But then i don't wish to manually refresh all the time. Before this i sort of quit the finder and relaunch it.. zzz both are troublesome method.
Any idea why my OSX doesn't auto refresh?

Well, i do have Bootcamp and Windoze....

When i just started BC + Windoze, i dont actually face this problem.. until like.. erm.... 2 months after that

QUOTE(Cyclone87 @ Oct 3 2007, 09:16 PM) I just bought a mac book last weeks and so far i just touch it twice for less then half an hour. i found out that all my game cant be run and alot program imcompatible with mac. Feel like installing window on my macbook . Haha Is this suppose to be a joke? U don't use Windows version of Game and try to run in on OSX. Guess that you ain't used to your Epal thus not using it eh..... try to spare some time and look for Mac version of software that you wish to use. Picking up the "skills" to use a MacBook is kinda easy... 2 finger on the touchpad = scroll etc etc... hmm.. how convenient it can get

QUOTE(masicecre @ Jan 3 2008, 01:24 PM) Just rephrasing Raven_lee's question. Will office programs like word, excel and powerpoint run properly on macbook pro? Also, how easy is it to switch from windows to mac? Is the mac really as hassle free as advertised? Am not a power user, just need a machine with a beautiful screen that runs fast. There are MAC version of Microsoft Office. Though i believe most of us here is using OpenOffice or other opensource, which might have some formatting/layout issue with MS Office. Hassle free, erm.. well yeah. Everything is quite simple with MAC OSX. You just need some time to get used to it.
