  • "Jim Vance reports on an iCal bug that causes data loss, reporting that when he called AppleCare, he was told that this bug 'was actually the expected behavior.' I generally have good experiences with AppleCare, but Apple has almost 8,000 phone support employees, and there's going to be a few bad apples in the bunch. (Sorry, I couldn't resist!) In this case, I believe Mr. Vance was lied to by the AppleCare rep. Allow me to suggest that he call back and ask for them to document that in writing." MacInTouch 11:17 AM
