    Start up issues

    Best thing to do first is to get all your files. Start up your computer in Target Disk mode (get a firewire cable) and connect your comp to another PC - in Target Disk mode it becomes a hard drive, essentially, and doesn't need to boot up to see the hard drive contents...

    Adjust Contrast/Brightness in Multi-Page PDFs?

    Make sure the files you are creating with the Hp software aren't edit-locked. If you create a file, you should be able to edit it in preview.

    Mac Keeps Crashing/Stalling

    Read my entire post. You'll also notice in the quote that it's not just UNIX but it: "incorporates a subsystem based on a UNIX-style operating system that uses permissions in the file system". Permissions, over time, can get corrupted. They just do. It doesn't have much to do with Windows or...

    From Apple (I quote this in my blog post): "Permissions Defined Mac OS X incorporates a subsystem based on a UNIX-style operating system that uses permissions in the file system. Every file and folder on your hard disk has an associated set of permissions that determines who can read, write...

    Mac Keeps Crashing/Stalling

    Even Apple recommends doing this regularly. I link to a support article in my blog post. Permissions get corrupted - it's a fact of life. :)

    Help with web design- Safari

    Quickest and easiest fix is to shorten your nav titles (one word if you can swing it). Safari is forcing all your ul elements in the nav to be on one line, looks like Firefox is more flexibile with this. Your site code has many issues (why have inline styles for your links?) which you should...

    Duplicate Title Tags

    Each page should have something unique in the title. Possibly repeat the h1 tag at the top of each page at the end of the title? That way google can tell the pages apart.

    lost Dock

    You have to click the finder icon to restart it in that case. Tinker tool also gives you control over your dock, and you can restart it as well.

    how to scrollwheel click for paste on mac

    You probably need to open up your mouse preferences on your mac (I assume your mouse has its own software?) If not, try keyboard/mouse in system preferences. You can then set up your buttons to do different things. Otherwise, try simply selecting the text and right clicking and see if "copy"...

    Also do the key combo for "Show/Hide Dock", I think it's command + shift + D.

    Adjust Contrast/Brightness in Multi-Page PDFs?

    I just did a test on a pdf I downloaded from the internet, and the Adjust color settings were grayed out. When I grabbed a preview from the right column and dragged it to the desktop (becomes a clipping) I can then edit the color on that file. I don't think you want to do this for all the rest...

    First Illus, Quark, Pshop versions for OS X?

    For best compatibility with Adobe Creative Suite you should at least get CS (the first one) If you share files at all with other users this will be important. As for Quark I'm pretty sure you should use Quark 7 or 8 since 10.5.8 is pretty advanced for the relic that is Quark 6. Since you're...
