Myke why are you DOUBLE clicking everything? No need at all my friend... All you need to do is... move to the dock click the mouse button once and hold the button down. the menu pops up move the mouse to your selection let the mouse button go... 1 click simple did that make...

hehe um simmer down simX you seem to be getting a little hot under the collar LOL. anyway to answer where I keep my dock folders... in a folder in my home directory called Dock Menus ~/Dock Menus inside is sub folders that I have on my dock "Launcher" has sub folders of app...

I don't use the mail.app but I am sure it would work the same... delete the mac.com account and create a new pop3 account, don't specify it as a mac.com account. do it like it was any other normal email account you add to mail.app the settings are pop3 server : mail.mac.com smtp...

I still don't understand why it takes you TWO clicks? I have a folder of aliases of all my apps these are in sub folders just to keep things organized. example: launcher folder | |---graphic apps |---html apps |---games |---utilities even with...

Actually they are either depending on how you set up your email client it can be imap or pop3 I use it as pop3 imap just makes no sense... I want my mail on my machine. Just thought you might like to know. Cheers

Ah you're right ... I do right click the menus that would have them pop faster... Sorry about that... I use a 3 button mouse and right click them so they open instantly. left clicking there is a slight pause. Cheers

my menus pop right open... then again I keep everything sub catagorized... no need to have a huge long messy menu. Even when I had the apple menu I always sub catagorized it, the stock way apple gave it to us was a mess. As for my icons, most I got from http://xicons.macnn.com direct link to...

honestly I thought the thing about the apple menu was over already... come on people move beyond OS 9. it's old news now and X has proven it's usability and worth. I did exactly what the last person wrote and have had it that way for nearly a year now. who needs an apple menu it works...

AKG headphones are great! many pro recording studios swear by them. I use them here. this page lists all their headphones from the very very best to the least exspensive. I know Tice's location and I know there is a Guitar Center nearby and I think a Sam Ash as well... both on rt 17 in the...

Can the finder dock icon be made to open a different application? maybe through some plist edit? cheers PS no arguments over this please, just a simple yes or no and if yes how to would be great - I'm so tired of arguments over why would you bother, it can't be done because, etc.

For all those that have cried and cried and said it couldn't happen, some I had rather lengthy arguments with they will remain nameless... Here it is it has been done you can now have your windowshade back or as I wanted when you click minimize it hides instead :-) have fun...

Correct me if I am wrong. Couldn't you just use Finder Buddy to set the invisible flag? I have tried it myself here and the drive no longer shows in the finder for OS X or 9 Invisible means it is still there and in X the system certainly can use invisible items. You could also use a...

As I said use the method I describe in my post. use the fstab method. it's the conventional way to do it.

long story but to keep it simple running mount from /etc/rc is not the correct way to do it. although it will work. It's just a more standard practice to mount from fstab. not going to go into all the details but just trust me do it the way I described. Cheers
