    funny windows jokes

    To be fair, they're both 'funny' - just not in the same way :D

    Classic in Tiger

    If you're talking about the 'original' OS 9 CD, then no - the installer won't run in OS X - 'cos the installer needs OS 9 - and you haven't got that loaded yet ;-). You should be able to boot from the OS 9 CD and clean install a System (assuming that the drives have OS 9 drivers installed when...

    installation woes, please help

    Afterthought - worth checking that RAM involved is 'proper' RAM - it's been noted before that this may cause problems. If needs be strip Mac to what it came with and add again afterwards.

    installation woes, please help

    I only got as far as 10.3.8 on a mates' G3 - apart from a torrid time - we discovered it was a little slow... I wasn't aware of the 'SCSI' situation... I thought the lowest spec was now builtin Firewire... Perhaps there's a firmware update? Check out...

    can't install suitcaseX1 on Tiger?

    IS this a brand new install of Tiger? You seem fairly au fait but might I suggest a repairing of permissions? It an old favourite... Office 2004 installed and updated OK here on G5 iMac. A little more info would be good? ATB

    Psyching myself up for Tiger

    brucedath - I don't want to make you feel that I'm (or any one else in these kind forums) is holier than thou - but a server is a major piece of kit - very often a mulitude of technologies lovingly nailed together by a geek somewhere - but give yourself (and your comapny) a chance - learn the...

    Psyching myself up for Tiger

    No, seriously... if you're in that much 'trouble', would it not be a good corporate decision to hire a 'trained gun' to do it for you under your direction? Just a thought.

    Is there anyway to remove 10.4.1?

    Good call! (I'm used to the method ;) )

    "Open With" Issues..

    Nice one - ta. I also note that if you wanted to make (say) Acrobat the default for .pdf from (say) Preview, OS X also counts the creator type in it's MIME lookup - consequently, changing the default app for a file that is already showing an Acrobat icon will NOT change the file association...

    Is there anyway to remove 10.4.1?

    Hello. Sorry to hear you're having problems (both of you - tdurst1 - you could be accused of hijacking a thread - but I'm not that sort of guy...) I'd like to say that I have no problems here (admittedly I don't use Indesign, but I do use MS Office). There is no known rollback procedure - but I...

    Dashboard Problems

    Blessed things pop up in both folders - seemingly dependent on install... down to the developers I guess. Good heads up though - thanks.

    SMB shares and Tiger

    Hello. I have in the past, automatically installed the MS UAM for OS X - this gives some options on the fly without having to edit .conf files. I couldn't (bizarrely) find on the MS site, but it full title is 'Install MSUAM for X.pkg'. A google may help, alternatively, (since it's freeware)...

    what wrong with Mac OS X and Apple ...

    <Rant> I sympathize with your comments. Apple claim that margins are so small that it's 'difficult' to spread the profits around... a good friend of mine ran a very sucessful Apple Centre in the UK for 10 odd years in the late '80s - he gave because he was fed up chasing £50... The guy I use...

    Font Management OS X - Please help...

    Another little thing came up yesterday which I thought I'd share with you all... A colleague opened up a quark v6 file (he still has Suitcase) and it said it was corrupt... I opened it on mine and it was fine (I have FR v1.7.3)... Make of that what you will. On another note, it would seem...

    How many Mac's have you had in your lifetime? (Home only + parent's machines)

    Ok, I was wrong - you win! I hope Mr Jobs is grateful ;)

    Font Management OS X - Please help...

    For my two-pennys-worth, IMO Font Reserve is the way forward - v1.7.3 solves many of the issues that I had with it and am now testing it to roll out... I had Suitcase for a while - but toooo many user probs (including a wierdo one in Quark, which whilst rare caused me to remove the .xnt). You...
