OS/X itself might not crash, but applications running under it surely will. Since I switched in November '04 I've must have "Submitted A Report" to Apple at least 100 to 200 times. XP tends to crash more often than OS/X, however, OS/X applications tend to crash way more often than XP apps.

All the IBM ThinkPads have Intel processors in them, how ironic.

Hi, I have a DW6000 internet connection and trying to A/V in iChat. To no avail, after scouring the web, I still can't seem to get it to connect to other users. Running DW600 on Mac OS/X 10.3.9 with all service packs up to date. If anyone could help I would really appreciate it! Thank...

From my point, you will need to know Objective-C as "a programming language" then you need to know the in's and out's of Interface builder and how they interact together to form a single application. Really, I would rather use C++, Objective-C syntax just seems to me to complicate things...

ok, I created the action called converter, but not the outlet...teachs me to not skim across the instructions. :)

Hi, just going through Apples tutorial to build the Currency converter. I have a question about the code in the tutorial. When adding the code to the implementation of the convert: method the sample is as follows : here is the link ...

Thanks for both replies. I went through Apple's Cocoa tutorial online...more of a step by step that really doesn't explain the details in depth. Anyways, ordered Programming in Objective-C and "Cocoa(R) Programming for Mac(R) OS X (2nd Edition)" I was kind of looking for a good all around...

Hi, --- :eek: I've come from about 18 years or so off the pc. I've done assembly, c/c++, pascal, basic, turbo basic, and even old cobol. Over the past 6 years I've focused on web development using Perl and that last 5 years PHP with heavy OOP (I run a web dev business). Ok, history...

Great review. I'm glad I didn't purchase Tiger, my money was better spent on buying a new 250G drive. Of course, Tiger is going to have some initial problem, however, unlike working with XP where these "little nit-picks" never get fixed...well, unless you patiently wait for 25MB+ service packs...

Yeah, but I have to buy a firewire / iSight to be able to use ichat unless I purchase iChatUSB. I might just have to go with iVisit, I just found the product info. I'll have to pay an annual subscription, but, it would pay itself off the first time I don't have to drive 20 miles to make a 5...

"Or, did I just burn a pile of money on DIMMS I can't use even though they are PC3200? Any ideas how to tell what they are before walking out of the shop with them? " Yeah, you have to really watch it when buying DIMMS for the G5. The DIMMS for my G5 1.8 duel are different than those for...

If it's a "tick tick tick" or tapping sound it's probably a bad sector on the drive, probably someone powered down the machine (without shutting it down) and the head pinged the drive platter. I would really consider tossing the bad drive --

If you decide to replace the LCD, it is fairly easy. Be sure to do some google searches for companies that have spare parts...and make sure to read the warranty / return / shipping and restocking policies before you buy. Also, check the Apple Store refurbs, I belive you can still get an...

Hi, I just can't find a straight answer anywhere. I'm looking at possibly purchasing a logitech zoom silver that supports OS/X. Logitech mentions you can add video, but doesn't clearly state video with audio (full A/V conferencing). Simple question, will the logitech zoom silver allow...

You might need to log in as root and do a locate. Also, it sounds simple, but remember to stop then restart personal web sharing after you make any changes to the .conf files.

Just a tip for those of you doing a clean install. Consider making sure (this time around) all of your data is stored in a single folder and that your apps like mail, etc, store their data in that folder. Next time you need to do a clean install, all you have to do is drag and burn that single...

Php is in /usr/lib/php and /usr/bin/php drop to a bash shell and do a $ locate php apache config file should be in /etc/httpd/ Sounds like the problem is in the httpd.conf file you might need to enable php in there. By default, your document root is set to /Sites/ --- I always...

Hmm, hear those drug intervention programs may causes stress resulting in delusional behaviour and/or comments. :D

I agree. Someone was asking me about where to get the CD-ROM version of Tiger. I did manage to find the info in about 10 minutes scouring around the Apple site (recalled accidently sumbling across the info a couple days back). I think the information should have been more easily...

Thanks 123/X ;) I'll check the post over the next couple of days. I'd rather be stable, when running a business, than spend more time dealing with problems --- that is why I left MS after 18 years -- but, I do still set up, repair and ntwrk ix86 systems. Hey, I love helping my clients who...
