If you bought the full version, it should have also installed some sort of "virtual hard drive" with some sort of PC OS... when you buy VPC, it will say on the box which OS it comes with (eg, win98, win2000, red hat linux, etc). So the message youre getting is that it can't find the virtual...

are all these forums really even necessary though? this is macosx.com... for discussion of mac os x, at least thats what i would assume. there's waaaaaay too many forums in my opinion. its just overwhelming, especially for new people i think...

I have an imac and a PC. I love my mac (running x.1), but I also have to say that I love my PC which runs win2k. There are good and bad things about both platforms... I think people who deny this are letting their bias get the better of them. at work, its the same scenario. I have a mac (g4...

i would consider myself intermediate-advanced when it comes to php and mysql. :D the project i was working on for the last 5 months got put on hold about a month ago because of lack of funding. i was the lead developer... but we needed ca$h money, so we all went and got jobs. now i work at a...

overall i'm very pleased with osx, especially after 10.1 came out. there's only 3 things that I think OSX could really use: 1. virtual desktops. I cannot elaborate enough on how useful these are. Not to everyone, obviously, but "pro" users, and the "UNIX crowd" that OSX kind of appeals to...

zerologic: those are some great photos man... im going to have to grab a bunch :D

Yah. the best part about icab is how stable it is. Often I can go for nearly 7 seconds before it crashes. It represents what a true OSX application should be.

I had this problem all the time in the public beta, but havent seen it once in 10.0 or 10.1. I never tried it or anyhting, but maybe trashing your IE prefs could help?

I've read countless topics at various places about how IE on OSX is extremely unstable, and hence, unusable. However I've never had a problem on my imac. IE rarely crashes on it, maybe once or twice a week. At work we finally got enough licenses that I finally got to install OSX on my...

That thing rocked. One of my favorite CP's from OS9 too :) The dock does everything that it is supposed to do, but that does not mean it doesnt have room for improvement of more features. As it is now, it's really just an application launcher, and a place where your minimized windows go...

That would be really really nice, but I've never heard of a way to do that. :cool:

Does your edited MOTD work for non-anonymous ftp? I've never set up anon ftp on my machine and never plan on doing so, but I know that when I edited my MOTD, it showed up in ftp sessions and ssh sessions when i was testing it out.

Amen to that! I hate how you cant change it so it adds the track number in the file name... on anything besides iTunes, it plays the tracks in alphabetical order rather than album order. This is one of my few gripes about iTunes. Overall it's a great app IMNO, but a few little things such as...

faster resizing would be nice, but really, whats the big deal? unless you sit there all day and do nothing but resize windows, it shouldnt be bothersome. when i first got 10.1, i checked out window resizing, wasnt that impressed, didnt care and moved on. once i got all my windows to be a...

check out mint audio: http://versiontracker.com/moreinfo.fcgi?id=10681&db=mac takes a bit to get used to the interface, but once you do its a pretty cool player, and generally takes less than 10% of my cpu. i havent used it for a while, and its been updated a few times since then. it used...
