When I tried to copy a large file to a new drive I got Error Code 1309 which shows I have the wrong format on the drive. Checking out Disk Utilities I see I can erase and format. I should choose Mac OS Extended, right, and when I click erase it reformats to my chosen option, correcto? Any...

Thank you for the info! One problem, I don't see how to uninstall if I want to. That page says it includes an uninstaller but I don't see it. Any ideas there? Thanks again.

I have yahoo and earthlink emails, does anyone know how I can get them to sound when I receive mail? Thanks!

I have an NEC MUltiSync FE991SB monitor that I used with a Power Mac G4 (OS9). Neither has been turned on awhile until today. The monitor won't come on with the picture, the light that is green is instead blinking yellow. Any ideas on what to do to make them connect properly? I used to...

Hi, When I'm looking on my mac for a document or maybe something specific in my notes and I do a search for say "all the world", it appears I get all things that have any of those words. Is there a way to search for just "all the world" where all three must be together like on the web? I...

In looking at an old project after upgrading to FCS 2 I saw differences that I wouldn't have to bother dealing with if I had a version of FCP 5.1.4 around. Is it a problem to re-install? I thought of moving FCS 2 (esp FCP & Compressor) out of applications and installing fcp 5.1.4 and...

I've been prepping for clean install by copying important files to dvd using Roxio Toast. Long story short, I also added material from other drives. Once I did, and then deleted trash, I found my MB Pro's hard drive listing 1.77 gb available. At least 40 gb less than before. I used apple+i to...

With FCS 2 causing headaches, I'm considering a clean install. But copying files to another drive I noticed the new size quite a bit larger than the original. Any reason for that? It certainly makes me wary of what's happening to my precious files! best, elmer

Having just installed FCS2, I tried to export from FCP to Compressor, but after prepping, when I hit submit I received this message: "Please restart your computer or verify your Compressor installation is correct." I tried the first, didn't work. I don't know how to do the second. Any...

Having installed everything I wanted from the previous suite, and will install the same ones this time too, and since all previous apps are to be erased, including gigs and gigs of STPro (Loops, et al), GarageBand and DVDSP, I expect the actual increase in space used won't be that much. Does...

Yes, I did, and it always returns to its previous place. Someone else suggested I didn't have admin rights, but since I'm the only guy using it, I set it up, I'm logged in as the user, I figure I have admin rights and am unsure what to try. Thanks for getting back though. best, elmer
