In the past couple of days I cannot open any windows in Safari. When I start the program up, I get the toolbar only. Nothing I do lets me open up a window. I even have to force quit the application sometimes to get it to close. I have reinstalled the program, removed the preferences, run Disk...

What is the best way to connect 2 monitors to a 2GHZ 2005 G5 - either DVI or VGA. What hardware is necessary? Any help would be appreciated.

I just bought a new Mac Mini and am trying to install Windows XP (OEM Version) on it via Bootcamp and VMWare Fusion. Both programs tell me that they cannot find an install disc. I borrowed a copy of Win XP from a buddy of mine and the same thing happened. These are not original discs but copies...

After being advised by the Apple tech at CompUSA that my HDD in my Dual 2.0GHZ PowerMac was failing, I replaced the stock 160GB HDD with a Seagate 300GB HDD. I got the machine to boot up, but in the process of transferring my files from an external FW HDD with my old system, I seem to have...

It seems as if my original internal drive is going (as suggested by an Apple Tech). For a little over 2 weeks, I have been having problems booting up, and after an erase and repartition, the problem seems to be appearing again. I boot and run from an external drive without any problems, it being...

I have a lot of old mp3 files and am having a problem burning mp3 cd's contining these song files. In quite a few cases, while attempting to play the mp3 cd's in my vehicle, some of these songs will not play - message No File Name appears on the players display - while some will play. The songs...

I visit a lot of sites from which I download jpeg pictures and save to different folders. I can do this in Mozilla, I used to be able to do it in Camino but no longer can, and cannot do this on Safari. Is there any way that I can select a specific folder to save specific images as I can in...

I have 2 Epson R200 printers which are not functioning and having the same symptoms. When I power on the printer, the paper and ink lights start flashing alternately and the printer will not work. I have been to the Epson site and have tried all the fixes suggested to no avail. I cannot get...

My sister went to work yesterday and left her Quicksilver 733 G4 on. Apparently there was a power outage in the area during the day. She came home and found the Mac off and has not been able to boot it since then. When she presses the power button, it lights up but the Mac will not boot. Is this...

I have just acquired a dual 2.0Ghz G5 from Apple and tried to run Disk Warrior after a lot of software installations. The DW cd, however, will not start up the G5. Has anyone had this problem before? :)

A couple of weeks ago I tried to upgrade my Quicksilver G4 with a dual 1GHZ processor. I had some problems so I returned the processor to the vendor and bought a refurbished 2.0GHZ G5 from the Apple Store. Suffice it to say that I am quite pleased with the new machine. However, I have some PCI...

I just bought a 2.0GHZ G5 from Apple and would like to use Setup Assistant to transfer my files from the old computer to the new. My question is, do I have to have both machines hooked up to separate monitors or can I use the old machine as a headless computer or vice versa? I have searched the...

I just backed up my hd (OS10.3.6) to an external drive with CCCloner, ran Disk Warrior on the HD and attempted to restart. Twice now I have a Kernel Panic. I have run Disk Warrior twice and am still getting a Kernel Panic when I try to boot off the internal HD. I am now thinking of reinstalling...

After Hurricane Frances, my Quicksilver G4 will not start up. I have it plugged into a UPS and shut it down the day before the hurricane hit my area in Florida. I forgot, however, to switch off the UPS at the same time. I switched it off the night of September 3rd. I think the battery has been...

I inadvertently switched off an external FW drive (before ejecting/dismounting it) which holds my iTunes library yesterday. Now the PCI card, although recognized by the System profiler, will not mount any FW device plugged into it. Seems as if it is hosed. The FW drive will also not mount. It is...

Help. After setting up my machine in Cocktail for "Single User", My machine will not boot to the OSX interface. It has taken me to the root directory and I cannot log in from there. Instead, it is asking me to run "/sbin/fsck -y" and then "/sbin/mount -uw". Since the disk is journaled, fsck will...

I am having some problems with my Linksys BEFSR41 4 port router. It appears to have died this morning. I have been able to connect my DSL line directly to my Mac and it is working fine. When connected through the Linksys, I cannot connect connect to the web. It worked fine up until last night...

This may not be the correct forum, but does anyone know of any site(s) that give values for Macs? I have a QS 867 mhz with 896 megs ram that I intend to sell in order to purchase a G5. I need some idea as to how much I can get for it. Any pointers would be appreciated.;)

I just had a serious problem where my computer, after booting, would not go into OS X. I booted from the OSX Install disk and erased, then partitioned the drive, but for the life of me, when I reached the page "select HD on which to install OSX", no disk showed up for me to select. I then...

Has anyone had success with using a +RW drive on a Mac? I have a Ricoh MP5125A (in Ikebana FW case) which has only burned audio files successfully. When I try to copy a +RW/+R disc recorded on a Philips DVDR-985 DVD Recorder using Toast Titanium 5.2 the burn fails with the message being that the...
