… just delete/rename ~/Library/Application Support/ZigVersion/UrlList.plist

I had been experiencing continuous crashes with ZigVersion for probably a month or so, so at the end I just managed my svn stuff from the command line. It is a bit tedious sometimes so I thought it would be nice to find a fix!

The side effect of this is that you'll lose the recent servers list, but I think that's part of the problem: I had so many working copies in the list that I guess ZigVersion just confused itself (specially because I had done nasty things such as putting working copies inside folders which weren't checked in but were inside another working copy, etc).

… Are you sure you want to open it?

Yet another stupid change in Leopard. Each time I download a php/ruby/python/etc file (which is quite common) I get this dumb question being asked. Even if the file is inside a tgz/zip/tar/rar archive!!

I'm pretty sure there might be a hidden setting somewhere which needs to be modified by writing to some property file such as com.apple.stupid_questions but as I don't feel like digging into the intricacies of Leopard and I haven't found anything in the System Settings nor asking mighty Google, I wondered if any of you know a solution…

UPDATE: Henrik knows how to fix it! Thanks!!

What did you expect after this?

He is opinionated too, and what's wrong with that?

I was using the firewire hub which the Apple Cinema Display provides for connecting my ipod mini. This worked perfectly with Tiger: iTunes opened each time I connected the iPod to the cable, and it also charged it as expected. But once I upgraded to Leopard this wasn't working anymore; the iPod was charged but iTunes didn't show up for synchronizing, basically because the iPod didn't mount at all.

It did synchronize if I used the USB cable, but that is very inconvenient for me since all the USB ports are in use already and I don't like to be plugging and unplugging cables constantly.

But today I found the solution (or more exactly work-around): to connect the ipod, using the Firewire cable, directly to the computer, instead of using the Display's hub.

I don't know what is the reason for this change/bug, unless they definitely want to eradicate Firewire iPod interfaces from the market or something. Luckily I don't have any other Firewire device, or I'd be screwed!
