I don't think I ever thanked "Symphonix" for help this. Thanks! Note that I long ago abandoned Garage Band and am now using Audacity, with excellent results.

I have searched here for information on how to turn off the chord on boot, but I can't find anything. G4 running Mac OSX 10.4.11.

Perhaps you can tell me how to turn the %$#@! thing OFF!

Just out of curiosity, what's this post doing in Mac technical forums?

Sorry, I decided to do a Google search AFTER posting this query. There are indeed players available, which I will check out.

I have a Mac G4 running OSX 10.4.11. I sometimes watch DVD movies on the Mac, but unless the DVDs are perfectly clean and scratch free, they usually choke up at some point with the message that "DVD player has encountered an error from which it cannot recover". Now, this might seem to be normal...

Thanks, that's useful information. Fortunately, the three folders you name are still present and intact, so I guess I'll chalk it up to experience and not worry about it.

I accidentally renamed a folder in my iTunes folder under Music. It contains three empty folders, Cache, Download, and Local. Do you have any idea what this folder originally was?

I have used bobw's suggestion (i.e., the carlson stuff) successfully, to move files from OS 8.1 to OSX. I did have Scott's problem of the OSX server crashing on large files. Scott, I would like to know how you fixed this. Using FTP sounds like a good idea too. The only problem I have had is...

I am dealing with a similar problem (8.1). I'll let you know if I get it solved.

I acquired a PowerPC 5260 running OS 8.1 in order to transfer files from some old low-density floppies to hard disk. Now I need to transfer the files to my G4 using an ethernet cable (the PowerPC has an ethernet card). The cable connection checks out OK, but I can't get them to talk to each...

Bummer! Thanks.

I recently deleted a bunch of files, and emptied the trash. I need to see a list of the files that were deleted, but I can't find this in the system logs. Is there a log file that contains this information?

I am having some problems with GarageBand and iTunes, and would appreciate it if you could point me to some comprehensive information on the topics discussed below. I am a longtime Windows (98) user, with prior experience in Macintosh up to System 6, and have recently purchased a Mac G4 laptop...

I just bought a new 15-inch GS4, and I like it. However, it really drags its feet when reading this forum, and doing other web activities. When I want to do some web work, I go to my Pentium III, 233 Ghz. running Windows 98se, and using Firefox. It's LOTS faster (at least twice, maybe thrice)...
