I have three different "regular" email accounts: two at domains I own, and one at the domain of the company that handles my hosting (along with backup accounts on Gmail). For the purposes of this question I'll call them mike@mydomain1.com, mike@mydomain2.com, mike@hostdomain.com The main...

OK, got it. Both of the "test" locations for the same base station are deleted. In the meantime, after trying a couple more suggestions, everything seems to have worked out, and we're back to normal here. I went into the Preferred Networks list, and cleared out all the networks that had been...

Thanks for the tip on the OPP, but from what I can see, the drivers at the link you provided are only available for Linux and not OSX. Is there a CUPS Deskjet 3521 driver for OSX 10.4?

My wife has gotten me an HP Deskjet printer/scanner for Christmas. Hoorah! Problem is, I'm having to scrounge for drivers for OSX Tiger, 10.4.11. Would anyone here know where I can find them? I've tried HP's own Web site, but I'm trapped in a circle of Choose Operating System/Select A...

Ten minutes ago, I could access my G4 iBook from my G4 tower, and vice versa, over my LAN. Then, suddenly, I couldn't. That's about all I have on this. I've tried rebooting both machines with no luck. Using the "contact server" command under the Go menu in the Finder didn't work; it timed out...

OK, so I've just cleared the cache in Firefox. It's created a brand-new cache folder with _CACHE_MAP, _CACHE_001, _CACHE_002_, _CACHE_003_ in it. I have the cache set to 500mb. To test it out, after I set the cache to 500mb, I quit/restarted Firefox and played a short video off of YouTube. Still...

Well, hot damn. diggety. As I often like to joke, "looks like I'm living right with Jesus!" Rummaging around on discussion.apple.com, I found several threads addressing the vanishing right-side menu item issue, where lots of folks had run down the list of things to try, as I had --...

Just now ran the combo update from a downloaded disk image from Apple. No change. Looks like I'm going to have to go the downgrade/re-update route some afternoon when I've got nothing else going on. Thanks for the help, anyway, though; I guess some days you can't even buy a break. (;^>

I selected a destination drive and clicked "Options", and Installer went to the screen where you choose "Erase & Install", etc. I didn't see a warning box. I clicked "options" and it went straight to the Options panel, where "Archive & Install" was grayed out. I'm not exactly OK working...

Just fresh from attempting Archive & Install... and the "Archive & Install" option is unavailable, grayed out. So, if anyone here has any ideas -- I'm pretty much out, myself, having tried every troubleshooting step suggested -- I'd love to hear 'em. In the meantime, I still have access to...

Sorry about the disjointed thoughts, here, but... I was also thinking of launching FinalCut Pro, because FCP's got so many menus that it shoves all the right-side indicators out of the way, then replaces them when it quits. Just thinking of what I could do that might force a reset of the right...

Actually, I already tried that right after remembering how mplayer ran full-screen... and now that I think of it, that's also the way that the Mac version of Windows Media Player handles full-screen. I wonder if opening a stream in WMP, going to full-screen, then back to normal might reset the...

The one weird thing mplayer did that may have triggered this problem was when I switched to full-screen mode; instead of enlarging the movie to fill the screen like QuickTime Player or VLC, mplayer appeared to reset the screen resolution itself, similar to the way the Mac WMV player does when...

I've done pretty much everything I could think of, including booting into safe mode, logging in as a different user, running a permissions/disk verification from the 10.4 install disk (verified OK), deleting .plist files for SystemUIserver and system preferences. It's worth noting that when...

G4 iBook, 1.25ghz, OSX Tiger 10.4.11 Tried out mplayer today, decided it was a bit sketchy and decided to trash it. Quit mplayer, upper right menu bar items disappeared. No AirPort status indicator, no audio volume control, no clock, no charge status indicator. All of these things still...
