At the request of MacSparky, I've put together a few AppleScripts for Mac Mail users, to mark messages as read...
tell application "Mail"
set read status of every message of inbox to true
end tell
display alert "Please note!" message "This script may take a while if you have a ton of mailboxes. Do you want to continue?" buttons {"Cancel", "Yes"} cancel button "Cancel"
with timeout of 600 seconds
tell application "Mail"
set read status of every message of inbox where its read status = false to true
set read status of every message of every ¬
mailbox where its read status = false to true
set read status of every message of every mailbox ¬
of every account where its read status = false to true
end tell
end timeout
display alert "Please note!" message "This script may take a while if you have a lot of mailboxes selected. Do you want to continue?" buttons {"Cancel", "Yes"} cancel button "Cancel"
set processSubMailboxes to (button returned of (display alert "Would you like to scan all submailboxes too?" message "Again, if you have a lot of selected mailboxes and submailboxes, this may take a while." buttons {"Yes", "No"})) = "Yes"
tell application "Mail"
tell front message viewer
set theSelectedMailboxes to selected mailboxes
repeat with a from 1 to length of theSelectedMailboxes
set theCurrentMailbox to item a of theSelectedMailboxes
processMailbox(theCurrentMailbox, processSubMailboxes) of me
end repeat
end tell
end tellon processMailbox(theMailbox, processSubMailboxes)
tell application "Mail"
if processSubMailboxes = true then
set theSubMailboxes to every mailbox of theMailbox
repeat with a from 1 to length of theSubMailboxes
set theCurrentSubMailbox to item a of theSubMailboxes
processMailbox(theCurrentSubMailbox, processSubMailboxes) of me
end repeat
end if
set read status of every message of theMailbox to true
end tell
end processMailbox
You can download these scripts here.
You can quickly and easily run them from the system-wide AppleScript menu. This menu is not enabled by default. To enable it and install the scripts...
Enjoy!

Here's a handy data loss prevention tip. With a Mail message selected, do not press either of the secret undocumented keyboard shortcuts Option+Control+H or Command+Option+Control+H. That is, unless you want your selected message irretrievably deleted. Not moved to the trash. Deleted. Permanently.
Tested in Mac OS X 10.7.3. Bug report filed.
Note: If you're backing your Mac up with Time Machine, as you should be, then you may be able to restore the vaporized message.
They're open and save dialogs. You navigate to a file or folder. You select it. You enter a file name when saving. You click Open or Save. How much more efficient can you get? Well, here are 10 things most Mac users probably don't know...
Tip 1: Drag and drop a file or a folder right from the Finder into the open or save dialog to quickly select it. If you do this in a save dialog with a file, then the file's name is automatically entered as the save name.
Tip 2: With a folder or file selected in the dialog, press Command+R to bring the Finder to the front and reveal the item.
Tip 3: To manually navigate to a folder, press Command+Shift+G (or / or ~). Enter the desired path. As you type it in, you can press tab to auto-complete folder names.
Tip 4: To see hidden files and folders, press Command+Shift+Period (>).
Tip 5: To quickly navigate to:
Hint: The other navigation keyboard shortcuts in the Finder's Go menu should work here too.
Tip 6: To create a new folder, press Command+Shift+N.
Tip 7: To navigate up one level, press Command+Shift+Up Arrow Key
Tip 8: To choose an image, audio track, or movie, click Media in the sidebar.
Tip 9: To move a file or folder displayed in an open or save dialog to another folder, open the target folder in the Finder. Then, drag the item from the open or save dialog into the opened folder window in the Finder.
Tip 10: With a file or folder selected, press Command+I to bring the Finder to the front and display the Get Info window for the item.
So, there you have it. Small tips that will save you a few precious seconds here and there and make you more productive. Every second counts, right?
More and more, my iPhone is becoming my camera of choice. It takes great photos, and I always have it with me. This year, at Macworld | iWorld, I was excited to stumble upon the olloclip. It's a 3-in-1 lens that fits snuggly over your existing iPhone lens. Included lenses are fisheye, wide-angle, and macro. I have to say, I love this lens, and highly recommend it for anyone who wants to do more with iPhone photography. It'll set you back about $70, but it's such a great little accessory, to me, it's well worth the price.
For anyone considering it, here are some observations…
In short, I concur with Stephen Hackett's Three-Word Review of the olloclip… Buy it now!
