I had to re-install ColdFusion 9 on my MacOS today and having installed CF approx. a million times before, I thought it would only take few minutes. Here is what I did :- 1) Went to /Applications/ -> Moved existing “ColdFusion 9” folder to Trash. 2) Ran the CF Installer and everything went well. But […]
So, last night, I thought of installing RoR on my Mac. Luckily, on Leopard, Ruby and Rails are pre-installed along with some other RubyGems. Out of the box, you get Ruby version 1.8.6 and Rails version 1.2.6, the latest stable releases at the time Leopard shipped. Ruby releases are few and far between (it’s still […]
Elad Elrom has compiled a pretty useful list of Flex Builder shortcuts for Mac users. You can grab the PDF version here. To me, this is something I could use on a daily basis. Thanks Elad.

As the title says, I was trying to setup my Mac with a Subversion client. Althought I have been using Mac for a few months now, I always jump into my Windows VM to do certain things and this was one of them (purely because I like TortoiseSVN). However, today, I decided to setup Mac […]
I was trying to transfer all my emails (keeping the folder structure intact) from Outlook (on Windows) to Mac. I decided to go with Thunderbird as my email client on Mac (the 3 contestants were Mail, Entourage and Thunderbird). To my surprise, it was not the most straight forward thing to transfer emails over (as […]
As stated in my earlier post, I have got myself a Mac recently. There was no real reason for me to do so, but I just wanted to go ahead and try it and I had also heard some good things about it from a few people, so I thought lets get one then! Before […]
I cant wait to get my macbook pro. Apparently, it has been shipped and should be with me before the weekend. This will be my first ever non-windows expereince and I am getting ready for the adventure. I realize the migration from Windows to Mac is not an easy one and there will be some […]
