I want to synchronize the Home folders on my PowerMac (PPC) to my MacBook Pro (Intel) machines using ChronoSync & would like to know if there are any folders in both Library folders I should exlude from syncing? For example on the MacBook Pro I have some Intel Quicktime codecs in the...

Cool, thanks for the recommendation :)

I want to backup my Mac (complete Home folder) to my network hard drive regularly (possibly nightly) but there's a lot of data so don't want to do a full backup each time. So I'd like some software that will only backup new & changed files from my Mac to the network HD. I've had a look around...

OK will do. Thanks for your help :)

Thanks. I've tried it but still can't get it to work. I don't see any printers descriptions close to mine. Maybe because it's an all in one printer scanner (HP PSC 1355). Once I selected IP Printing there's also a Printer Type drop down box below it. Should I select 'Internet Printing...

Thanks, I have 1GB of RAM so I'll forget worrying about it :D

Thanks, I'll try not to worry about the memory thing :) Yes, I am quitting the apps. not just closing them. Thanks again!

Thanks a lot, this is very helpful! :) So I don't need defrag? Cool I haven't had any problems with any of my disks. I just like to maintain things. So I can run Maintain Permissions to keep everything running nicely. or just when I have problems? I have all the apps closed...

I don't mean change the icons around. I meant take the default icons (system icons) modify them & then save them as new icons (in a different location). Then change them using CandyBar :) Thanks for the help though.

Where are the system/default icons located in OS X? I want to locate them (or just download them) & play about with them (change the look of them). If they are hidden, then how do I show them & where are they located? :o

So I have to put up with the SMB Mount box? Oh well, thanks a lot for the info :) And I'll take a look at my drives to make sure they're shared properly.
