I finally got it to install. What seems to have worked was repairing permissions and then rebooting before re-trying the install. At first, the Install Mac OSX bundle appeared to be a folder in the finder. Double-clicking it did result in an attempt to start the installer. However, it would...

Hello, Anyone here tried installing Panther on a Lombard Powerbook? My Powerbook G3 Bronze Keyboard Lombard 333mhz seems to be unable to boot the Panther CD. I insert the CD into the powerbook while running 10.2.8 and usually the installer crashes. Once, however, it did start up and I...

Have you ever heard of putting a computer to sleep? Why would you want to turn your computer off? Putting it to sleep uses just about the same amount of power as turning it off... so sleeping is just as economical. And, OSX wakes up faster than booting.. osx or xp. I can't seem to get my...

gandi.net Good interface, good price.. 12 euros per year.. about 12.00 right now. Was better when the dollar was better. I have about 125 domains with them and for over a year now. I do hosting as well and I have set up a few sites already for .Mac refugees. So, one tip, find a host that...

No idea about how to fix them here. I have the same probelm. However, if I try unplugging, it is a guaranteed kernal panic. Only thing that fixes for me is a reboot.

Is your mail account a mac.com or other imap account? Sounds like it. Mine is a standard pop3 account on a linux server. I don't think it is sever related as Entourage retrieves all the mail with no problem. I also have a simple web-based pop3 client that retrieves the mail with no problem...

While that script could be useful in some situations, I would prefer to be able to read the mail before deleting it. The problem is that Mail.app is not READING the mail from the server. It reads most, but leaves some behind. Only the mail that is read is deleted. The rest is not read or...

Delete mail on server is already checked. The problem is not that it will not delete messages, the problem is that it will not retrieve all messages. It just leaves some messages on the server.

I have a problem where Mail.app checks the mail and leaves mail on the server without downloading all of it. Most mesages are retrieved, but every day some are left. I can recheck the mail with Entourage and it retrieves all the mail.. and deletes from the server.

How big is your cat? The iMac weighs 21 pounds.

OSX doesn't come with an FBI warning and did not have 57 security bulletins last year.

These colors are awful. Don't pick this one and go with it.
