    Airport now working as it should

    Thanks, will try that this weekend. Yes, my Laptop was originally Tiger and I upgraded to Leopard from an install disk, and have then updated with Software Update to get to 10.5.6 where it is now. It only seems to be a fairly recent problem though.

    newbie needs help, please!!

    Considering Apple pride themselves on making their computers easy to use, you'd think they would be better at writing simple, easy to understand manuals. Jeez. Anyway, mini rant over. My problem is this: I have installed Mac OS Server (Tiger 10.4) onto a G5 tower (with 160GB hard drive and a...
