  The surprise news for the week was Apple’s quiet discontinuation

  restores calendar functionality, and Jeff Carlson reveals 15 secrets
  of iMovie ’11. Lex Friedman explains how to fix a “file not
  found” error when syncing an iPad, Adam looks at the release of
  the Simon server monitoring tool, and we’re pleased to release
  Sharon Zardetto’s new ebook, “Take Control of Safari 5.” We
  also have a DealBITS discount on PDFpen and PDFpenPro from Smile,
  and a new DealBITS drawing for Simon. Notable software releases this
  week include TweetDeck 0.36.1, Mac Pro EFI Firmware Update 1.5, Data
  Rescue 3.1, Adobe InDesign CS5 7.0.3, Logic Express 9.1.3, PopChar X
