    Snow Leopard Internet Sharing Problems

    Hi all, I've been having this problem for months, and it's driving me crazy! Snow Leopard is having tons of trouble sharing its internet connection (Ethernet to WiFi). I've tried creating new locations, restarting computers, but nothing seems to work. Sometimes it doesn't work at all and...

    Airport Extreme Bridging question

    Hi all, haven't posted here in a while. I have a Mac Mini that is terrestrial wired to ethernet, and I have the Mac Mini broadcasting the internet over WiFi via the built in Airport. My question is, if I get an Airport Extreme base station, can I bridge the Mac Mini's wireless internet...

    how to disable alert panel

    Well, I assume you're using Cocoa, in which there is nothing wrong with that. Personally, I have no idea what you're doing, but I would just set up a NSTimer that checks every now and then to see if a disk was inserted. I.e.: if (no disk) { [thisObject doNothing]; } else //disk inserted {...

    how to disable alert panel

    Which API are you using? It might be that the API won't work unless a disk is inserted. But that may not be the case. More information would definitely help.

    Snow Leopard

    Yeah I agree with Captain Code and Viro. Viro is probably right that localizations take up so much space. I just checked this on TextEdit, and each localization of the interface takes up around 1.2 MB. That can easily add up to 22 MB for TextEdit, especially with 20 localizations or whatever...

    Sticky: How to Enable PHP in Leopard

    I'm sure this question gets asked a lot so I thought I'd help. This is pretty simple to do too. 1. Go to the Finder, in the Go menu, go to "Go to Folder..." 2. Type in "/etc/apache2/" (without the quotes of course) 3. There should be a file named "httpd.conf" 4. Go ahead and copy this...

    Macbook won't book up

    Have you tried to insert the OS DVD and choose to boot off from that when your computer starts up? Sounds like a hard drive problem to me. When you boot off the Tiger/Leopard DVD you have access to some utilities such as Disk Utility where you can check your hard drive for problems. Hope that...

    best option for running Windows only game on Mac

    Definitely Boot Camp. VMWare Fusion doesn't offer accelerated graphics with the Mac Mini's puny 64 MB Integrated graphics. If you had an iMac or MacBook Pro, the game would run fine under VMWare Fusion (as these have graphics cards, Mac Minis don't). I have the same kind of computer as you do...

    Bootcamp: Installing Windows over a previous Windows installation?

    Hi all, Just wanted to let you know I got it working. It was really simple. Here's how: 1) Open Bootcamp Assistant and start Windows Installation 2) Partition the original Windows Partition as FAT (full not quick, and make sure it's the right partition, choosing the wrong partition...

    Install Leopard from external HDD

    This requires a lot of time and patience, but try this tutorial. You're going to have to erase and partition your USB hard drive. Although I'm not sure it will work with USB hard drives. Best to look around here first. Good luck. Edit: It appears the MacBook Air can boot from its USB hard...

    Multiple instances of an application

    You can run multiple instances of the same application, although it's a little unorthodox. I wouldn't recommend doing it for Carbon or big apps such as Office or Adobe's apps. You can just copy the application (Alt/Option + Drag the Application to where you want it, or just hit Apple/Command +...

    Bootcamp: Installing Windows over a previous Windows installation?

    Hi all, I have Windows Vista installed on a Bootcamp partition. I was wondering if I install Windows XP on the same partition, will there be any issues? I've tried partitioning the drive once and it really screwed up the hard drive, to the point where the only option I had was to reinstall...

    CompUSA shutting down?

    @Natobasso Hey thanks for being a sarcastic arrogant jerk again. I really do appreciate it. Do I have any other sources than employees in a store? Well in this country, the people that work in a store usually know what their store is up to. Did you ever go to a CompUSA to see if what I...

    CompUSA shutting down?

    I don't care if there's a bad review of CompUSA or if you're skeptical of them shutting down. I'm going to miss the opportunity for Apple to be in another store. The fact is, I was just in CompUSA today, and their shutting ALL their stores down by February. In fact, almost all items...

    CompUSA shutting down?

    I've been hearing rumors of CompUSA shutting down. This would really suck. CompUSA is one of the few third party major retailers that sells macs. What would happen to people considering a mac? I mean most people, if they want a computer they will just go to any old store and buy one...

    Leopard: Bizarre Safari Behavior

    Okay, so in Safari 3.x, the image background image is blue now, instead of purple. I didn't even quit Safari since I first posted it this thread. I swear nobody touched it either. :mad:

    Leopard: Bizarre Safari Behavior

    Hey, thanks for the super-fast response. I did save the background image with the profile embedded, but it hasn't showed up weird on Safari until now. When I saved it, the profile embedded was straight up blue. Now, purple. Didn't Safari 2.x display embedded profiles too? But yeah...
