Has this ever occurred to any of you that after updating my MacBook Pro to 10.5.7, all of my e-mail seemed have dissapeard. Every time I click Mail icon on the dock, it gives me this "Welcome" screen where it asks you to set up new accounts. Since I'm afraid doing so may overwrite existing...

Hi, all, This questions is for programmers.... On one of the classes I'm taking, we're using ssh to the Linux (RedHat) servers. And the part of the assignments is to create apps on Linux. I was first very excited because I thought I could take a full use of Unix part of OS X, but...

Hey all, I work for an office with 7 different printer we share by about 20 macs. Most are under LaserWriter 8. But when I select it, it gives whole bunch of different printers we even don't have. Now, I know LaserWrite 8 is kind of generic, and every printers we have have their...

Hi, there! I was recently hired as an internship at local community college art department computer lab (almost all Mac!). One of the tasks I face is to keep all the software and system up-to-date. It seemed easy, but installing the same things over and over on many Mac is such a pain in a...

Hi all, It seems to me a bit funny that Apple released iBook with Combo-Drive, but only DVD or CD-RW for TiBook. Usually higher end models have more option but it's oposite. It almost sound like TiBook may come up with SuperDrive soon. Hey, its G4 is only a couple of hundred MHz away from...

You guessed it. I guessed it. I finally downloaded DiskWarrior from its web site, ran to a friend of mine's place to burn a system CD w/ this software on (I don't have a CD-R drive), so it becomes bootable, then booted up my iMac with that disk. Gawd! It says it's too severely...

Sounds like a plan, but I'm afriad of running older utility on newer system... For your question about being run under 9.2.1, the answer is no because CD-ROM is only bootable media so far. Disk Utility on OS X disk is specific and gave me that error mentioned above, but for utility on...

Yes, I already tried Disk Utility on 10.1 disk. Here are the message I get from it. = Verify = Verifying disk "Mac OS". Checking HFS Plus volume. Overlapped extent allocation (file 3d) The volume needs to be repaird. Verify completed. = Repair = Repairing disk "Mac OS"...

Good question. It wasn't Norton File Saver, but Norton Disk Doctor (demo). I thought it should test it before I buy it. File Saver ... Disk Doctor ... close enough? Did you get that recovered with NFS or you basically reinstalled everything?

Well, I guess I forgot to mention it. Yes, I did try Diagnostic CD that came with my iMac. But the problem with this one, is that it only checks everything, from RAM to graphic card, etc., but HD. :( I don't know this happens to everyone, but at least this is what happened to my case...

Thanks, macko, Here's what I discovered so far: It recognizes 9.1 CD, 10.0 CD, 10.1 CD and all the original CD which came with my iMac, but it doesn't recognize 9.2 CD. Appearently, none of them seem to recognized OS 9.x portion (note I didn't say partition as I didn't) as formatted...

Hello, I guess I just made a huge mistake on my iMac DV+ (slot loading, 450MHz). My system started acting funny, like Outlook Express locked up, etc., so I wanted to try some system utilitites before I buy any. So I downloaded the demo version of Norton Utilities and run it from OS 9.2...

Hello, My iMac DV+ is acting strange for last couple of days. After upgrading to Mac OS X (10.1), Mail.app started working fine. It keeps quitting for no reason with 10.0.4 so I was happy with that. I learned that there is a known issue with keychain, so I got about that problem by...
