Pardon any naivete about Windows 2000 and Windows in particular. I'm a mac user and windows maintainer. He put Spycrusher on here and that seems to be a horrible thing to do. Ahh, yeah. From what I've read anyway. Hard to get rid of all of it. This friend's machine …

Hello, I'm afraid to hear the possible truth to this question, but... The screen on my eMac contracts a bit in size for a fraction of a second to a second. Seems to only do it when using a browser, not just when my slide show is running or if …

Hello. Yes, I finally upgraded again to X 3.9. But if I right click an image to save to a folder or such, I have to click the Option key to get the Contextual box to change from Save to Desktop to Save As. Just wondering if there is a …

[QUOTE=mjanep]Hi, I'm new here. I have this problem in the office. We have a dual processor G4, which does not start. All you get is a no entry sign on the monitor once you start it. We tried to troubleshoot it by swapping parts like the ram, hard disk, removing …

Hello. I hope someone can help. Apple can't. Expose' intermittently just stops working sometimes. It may happen after a pop under occurs, but I can't pin it down to that. Apple (tier one) wanted to do an 'Archive & Install of course. Instead they said to switch to test user. …

I am using Panther 10.3.2 and use my pictures for my desktop slideshow. In 10.2.8 and below, there was a choice in the 'change desktop' window. I could tile, stretch and center. Tile or center would take any size pic and resize it to fit the desktop. Now there is …

Hello. I talked with Apple and Charter (my isp) about this to no avail. My father sent some .jpgs in varying sizes, averaging around 400-700 Kb. I forwarded a 632 Kb image (actually 403 Kb on my desktop) back to him and to myself. His was rejected by his isp …

I just talked to Apple about spell checking as I type, being gone from most things I do now. They have no answer. Told me to try forums to find out if there's a work around. Every web based email server I use and forums I reply or post to, …

Hello. I know this is probably trivial, but is a pain. As it has lost a lot of communication. I have, unfortunately, 4 friends and acquaintances on aol. Have problems with all when using Mac mail. Most don't know how to use their aol. One that doesn't, is the one …

[QUOTE=mdcpdx]:?: Switched to mac. 1) When buying my imac, I did not order extra memory, as the Apple store prices seemed extreme. Shopping for memory, there is a wide range of prices. If this was a PC system, I would buy the lowest price that meet the specs. Experienced mac …

I made a mistake installing this software, thinking it was a good program. The author of the software does not respond to email (per his instructions to email him with any questions or problems) and it bogs down my machine and doesn't perform at all like is purported. He says …

Yeah I had that on the eMac I just got repaired (not for that reason). I bought a newer 1ghz model and have not seen it. I haven't started my old one yet. Please refresh my memory and tell me where you're seeing .DS_store, so I can look for it. …

[QUOTE=kc0arf]Hello, Dani, our System Administrator, has created a new forum called Mac Tips and Tricks. I'd love to write about a number of things concerning the Macintosh, but being at the administrator level for so many years, I may be a bit out of touch on what new people would …

Hello. I'm having problems with Panther too. Safari plist gets corrupted often. System preferences were corrupted yesterday. I tried to revert, after testing Panther on my other machine (both emacs, current being 1ghtz combo, other 700mghz combo) with Apple's tier one support that resulted in trashing that machine. Got it …
