Ah, the problem is slightly different that what I thought. This thread seems to address a similar issue: http://macosx.com/forums/showthread.php?t=319763&goto=newpost There is some discussion about convincing the Finder you really mean to change the view options. Perhaps the new OS...

I was playing around just now, and I find that .DS_Store files aren't created automatically. Simple things like creating files and folders in Terminal or in Finder won't cause .DS_Store files to be created. To force the creation of a .DS_Store file, go to a folder in Finder, then right click...

I just upgraded from Shockwave 11.5 to 11.6, but now it runs at about 1 fps, and the option to use hardware OpenGL rendering is greyed out. Shockwave 11.5 worked fine. This is a problem both in Safari and Firefox; I've used both the Full installer and the Slim installer. I have a GeForce FX 5200...

So, maclick, why do you put your computer under the desk? Isn't it an inconvenience to have to reach under there to plug in devices or insert CD's? Looks like you have room on the top, so there must be some reason you like it that way. (Just wondering.)

In Photoshop CS3, I need to save several jpgs using "Export for Web & Devices" and embedding the ICC profile. When I save each one manually, the ICC profile is embedded, but when I created an action to do the same thing, the ICC profile isn't embedded! I can tell this because when I embed the...

I turned that off, but that didn't fix it.

I guess I should've pointed out that my computer will fall asleep when I select  > Sleep or press the power button. However, I unplugged all of my USB stuff and looked at the Console. The computer didn't fall asleep, and there weren't any messages. The monitor did fall asleep, though...

Sounds like the preferences have gotten corrupted. Drag ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist to the Desktop, and restart. (In case you don't know, "~" means your home folder.) This may sound like a good way to mess things up if you've never done this before, but OS X will automatically...

I have a Dual 1.8Ghz G5 running 1.4.11. It is set to fall asleep after an hour, but lately I've noticed it doesn't. To test this, I set the monitor to fall asleep after 1 minute and the computer to fall asleep after 2 minutes. I waited, the monitor fell asleep, but the computer never did. I...

And, of course, there's Pages (part of iWork, $79). It's made by Apple, and can handle both English and Japanese. (I just tried it.) I have been very satisfied with Pages. It's just like what you said, "a few bells and whistles, but not too much junk, either."

As I said, I reformat my cards inside my camera, and I have two readers. One reader is a normal card reader, one is the camera itself.

I've tried moving them over 10 at a time if that's what you mean.

I'm having problems transferring photos from my camera to the computer. The transfer stops and just hangs there. I can't stop the transfer, unmount the CF card, shut down, or restart. The only way to recover is to hold down the power button and restart. The system does not freeze, just the...

Hm. A while back, I had a issue with the iTunes store, and I thought they refunded my money. It looks like they actually gave me a free credit instead. All of this time and I didn't know.... The gift certificate help page also says something about this. Thanks for your help.

I just upgraded to iTunes 8, and every time I click on the iTunes store, there's a display that says "1 Song" next to my username. I can't click on it or anything. What does it mean? (I've attached a picture.)
