    Animated startup spinner under apple

    I know where the apple startup logo is in the bootx file, however I do not know where the image data is for the thing that spins under the apple logo. If the quartz graphics drivers are loaded then it would probably be a tiff file like the trash animation however I am not sure if this is the...

    Hooking up a windows SCSI drive

    Good news, if it's a scsi drive and you can connect it, you will be able to read it if it's fat32. If it's ntfs you will get a error dialog when you start up osx saying you have inserted a drive that the OS cannot read and give you the option to ignore it or format it. I have done the switch...

    10.2.8 update brakes loginwindow program

    I've got the similar "blue screen" effect however it was because I installed quicktime 6.4 and had to kill the installer midway through x.x. I don't know how much I can help but have you tried: correcting the prebinding? (through ssh 'sudo update_prebinding -root /')...

    OS X install problems on Beige G3

    I finally found an ata 6gb drive and installed OS X on it. The install went without a problem so it must be that OS X cannot be installed on a scsi hard drive. Or at least not for me... :P

    OS X install problems on Beige G3

    Yea, actually I just tried xPostFacto and the clone utility. The clone utility gets me to boot off osx on the HD however at the apple the screen becomes static-ish and freezes. As for xPostFacto, It boots off the hard drive and even gets to the installer however after a few clicks on the...

    56K Internet sharing with 9.1

    Just as a late follow up, I did get the modem shared. All I had to do was turn on "share internet" in mac os x and set the attached 9.1 computer to a dhcp ethernet connection. Pretty simple.

    OS X install problems on Beige G3

    I tried removing even the apple scsi 2 card that the HD was attached to and used the on board scsi 1 controller with the granite adapter with no dice. I even detached everything but the cd rom and hd and still had no luck. Next things I am going to try is updating the firmware but I dont...

    Pick up phoneline?

    Hmm, you got me interested with your idea as I am in a similar situation. The only problem that I would see is actually communicating with the modem (heh, the thing you want to do) Tell me if you make any progress, I will do the same. Your idea also brought up an idea from me... voice...

    56K Internet sharing with 9.1

    Currently I have two macs. The one that is connected to the internet (through 56k) runs 10.2.X and the other one runs 9.1 and is networked to this mac directly through the use of a ethernet crossover cable. I already can share files between the two but after finding the internet sharing...

I am just going to take a wild swing in the dark and think you are talking about the legality of my mp3's which as surprising as it may seem are legal. :O Well, don't have access to any friends with 10GB free soo... As for the apple store...

    when I run the updater and click update, it unmounts my ipod and then gives me an error stating my ipod needs to be mounted. After clicking ok, the text next to the update button states I need to mount the ipod again to complete installation. Then the cycle repeats itself. I searched the apple...

    Apple iPod Software update!

    :/ I hope that wasn't a reply that attempts to match my competence..... ;) I have a 10gb imac which I filled up quite a while ago. I am actually using my ipod to store files right now so a restore is not a possibility. Pardon me if my reply seems harsh. I am of good humor and know what it is...

    Apple iPod Software update!

    It seems I cannot update to 1.2.6... I presume it is because I had installed mac os x on it. I have since then removed it and all the files (yes even the hidden ones) and it still wont update :( I don't want to try restore because I dont want to loose all my songs and etc. Has anyone found a...

    Yikes! Calculator bug?

    Perhaps apple only compiled it with project builder set to "debug" when compiling it instead of deploy (cant remember the exact settings off the top of my head). That would make sense too since it kinda buggy :P
