The modified dates on the word documents (about six hundred of them) got corrupted when I backed up the dying old hard drive. After installing the new hard drive and transfering the old files to the new drive, I noticed that the dates modified and dates created went off by 2 years 4 months and...

I heard that there is a hotfix for Virex 7.0 to work with Jaguar. Does anyone know where I can download it from?

I have read an article here a while back but cannot get back to it. The problem I have is that the display of my powerbook g3 becomes dark and I have to press brightness to get it back right when I am logging into the system. How do i change that?

If you still have warranty, call apple and tell them that you have bad pixels. They may exchange it for you

I use OS 9 to backup too. But as a secondary backup only. I burn my data on a cd before doing this stuff. :-) I know I do not need do it. Anyway thanks for your help. My Powerbook does not boot to OS9 when I have OS9 on a different partition. When I drag the system folder from OS9...

It was dirty.Works now. Thank u

Yes. :-) It worked when I changed it to "Ignore ownership on this volume". Thank you.

No. I have not moved any OSX folders to OS 9. But the ownership information on OS9 tells me that I am the owner. I am sorry. I did "Ignore Ownership". I forgot to mention that. Thanks a lot. Anyway, what is the use of "system" in ownership?

My problem is I have two partitions. OS X on one and OS 9 on the other. I have applications on OS 9 that need to be used by all the users. I changed the ownership of the entire partition to "system" instead of "Me" and it seems to be working. Am i doing it right?;)

I have been having the same problem. I started up in OS9 (which required me to move my OS9 system folder onto the same partition as X - just wouldn't use it from the other partition!) and ran disk first aid which said that all seemed fine, then started back in X and the problem had gone

I would like the other users of my system who are not administrators have access to the applications on my system. If I want to give access to them, what do I select from Get-Info -> Ownership&Permissions. I have selected system. Is that fine?

My PowerBook G3 has no firewire. It is 267 MHz. The BootRom Info shows that it is 2.0.1 version. Is that the latest one? Do I need to install another version firmware?thanlks

I have X.2 and 9.2 on two different partitions. After booting to OS X, I change the startup disk to 9.2. But when I restart the computer, I see the happy mac and then a blank screen and then OS X startsup. What is up with my system? Thank you

what is a daughter card?

My Powerbook G4 has os X.2 on it. The space bar suddenly stopped working as of today. What might be the problem? Thanks
