I'm having the same problem of being logged out when I log in, and I am using Safari.

Try using Firefox instead. I use Seamonkey and Firefox on my Mac and they work fine.

I almost never use Safari on my Mac, unless it's one of those annoying sites that checks your browser type and kicks you out if you're neither using Safari, IE or Firefox.

My problem is slightly different. Safari is Lilly's browser of choice, and when I log in to the forum and click on the box to keep me logged in, it works for awhile, but give it a few hours and when I return, I am logged out!

I am using a more recent version of Safari....version 6, shipped with OSX Mountain Lion.

As for Greta...I do remain logged in while using Firefox.

This is why I cannot have Mountain Lion...

Hopefully they mean it when they say end of November. Last time I needed drivers, I had to wait until February!

Which is too bad, although in my case I often end up getting drivers (and sometimes workarounds) with my HP and Epson printers.

What bugs me is that why can't the drivers used in OSX 10.7 Lion work under 10.8? The Driver software is basically the same thing between the two versions aren't they?

Possibly, but not necessarily. At worst, it's like Oki being trolls and putting in some OS check into their drivers to ensure it doesn't install under Mac OS X Mountain Lion just "in case it breaks someone's Mac" (like HP is doing with their drivers for Windows XP Pro x64 machines).

Tape drives are still the in thing?

Big companies like the one I'm working for still swears by 'em when it comes to backup for some reason. Probably sold on the idea that they're not easy to read because the drives are rare and ungodly expensive, and that they're just a little more reliable when compared to portable hard disks (i.e. not prone to damage by shock). Nevermind that they only hold 1.6TB of data each (LTO-4, compressed mode).

You can probably ask Chris about it.
