For those of us who are Mac users, and iLiad users, there is a little, vexing problem - getting those hidden Mac finder files on the iLiad. These are .DS_Store, the icon files and so on. They appear both on the iLiad's main drive, and on memory cards you might use. :angry:

I came across a solution: Blue Harvest (http://www.zeroonetwenty.com/blueharvest/) a $10 system extension that allows you to scrub specific locations, and keep them protected from the creation of such files. :)

Worth a look! :cool:

There are also other (free) utilities out there, to get rid of those .DS_store files, although probably not that elegant as BlueHarvest

DS_Store_Cleaner (http://www.redroomdevelopment.com/products/ds_store_cleaner/)

I think veteran Mac User will be the one requestiong more from the iLid, as they have come to know the Newton OS, and of course Hypercard.
