Hi, Haven't been here in a while. I am trying to find software which converts photos into caricatures. I've found it for PC. I'd prefer not to go that route and stay with pure Mac if possible. I have the latest OS software and an early 2009 model iMac. TIA.

I read the blog and wondered if that is the route I would go to fix my problem. Do I need to use the startup disk to remedy my problem? I found instructions for that too. I'm still confused which way to proceed. These are the instructions: Mac OS X 10.5: Administrator user changes to...

---- single user mode reset password:leopard mount -uw / ls /users passwd (user's name) (enter the password cannot be seen) reboot ---- Would I use this if my Admin account changes to standard? This what happened and now I can't add software, change file names, etc. It happened after...

My LaCie 320GB External HD Firewire/USB had some vague problems prior to this melt down. Now Disk Utility says it has an I/O Error. I got this when I tried to zero out the drive. I can't initialize through Disk Utility. However, I can initialize it through Drive Genius, but it still won't...

Also repair permissions regularly with OnyX. I do this every time I install software, add files, etc. Great piece of software. It also optimizing the HD better than Apple's Repair Disk utility.

This is the oddest problem. My previously functioning HP 1300 connected to my AirPort Extreme was printing flawlessly. Out of no where it decided to not print - the Ready and Warning Lights and Go Button & Light all came on. I got them turned off and now the Ready Light is on and nothing else...
