    aps icon no longer on Doc

    First off, applications have application icons. Documents have document icons. The specific document icon for each filetype is determined by the application associated with the filetype. What happened in your case is that your .doc files lost their association. The association is easily...

    tweaking OS X?

    You don't give the size of your partitions, but I would bet that your partitions are at the heart of your performance issues. You are not running CP/M on your Mac. By today's standards, a 160 GB HDD is tiny. This means that the partitions of a 160 HDD are microscopic. With a full Installation of...

    PowerPC apps for Leopard?

    What do you mean by this? On its face, your statement is demonstrably not true.

    Mac OS X "Mountain Lion"

    There are 36 unique species of non-domestic cats. These do not include redundant names for the same species such as puma, cougar, panther, mountain lion, etc. Apple is nowhere near to exhausting the names of cat species. At most, it is off to a good start.

    eMac Upgrade questions

    Just because you say that the PRAM (what's PVRAM?) battery is good does not make it so. It sounds like your PRAM battery needs to be replaced. I was able to reach the Roxio Titanium 10 update in about two mouse clicks. I am downloading it now.

    iMac G3

    Burned and inserted a MacOS 9.2.2 disc? Exactly how did you do that? BTW, it is a violation of the rules of this forum to discuss pirated software or to help other pirate software.

    MacKeeper Deleted My Music

    MacKeeper is not supposed to keep your Mac running better. It is a scam. It is supposed to take your money and provide no benefit. What part of scam don't you understand?

    Any excuse .... The CPU information--the information that you need--in MacTracker comes from the apple-history.com website.

    iMac G3

    Oh, for Pete's sake. You don't have to "also read" anything. Download the free MacTracker application. It includes complete rundown on every Mac model ever made along just about every software title and peripheral Apple ever sold. The MacTracker application is immeasurably faster than the...

    MacKeeper Deleted My Music

    Sorry buddy, but MacKeeper is a scam. Even if it were not a scam, then its advertised functionality would be unnecessary on your Mac. If it were not a scam, then it would be only a waste of money. Unfortunately, your experience indicates that MacKeeper is a destructive piece of crap. If any good...

    USB and FireWire converters?

    Here is the deal. iMovie ships with the computer, not with the OS. It shipped with computers that had Tiger preinstalled. It did not ship with the retail version of Tiger. If you want or need to upgrade iLife from the version that shipped with your computer, then you must hand over some duckets.

    problem with boot and install os

    Perhaps I should be clearer. If your DVD drive is broken, then it needs to be replaced. There is nothing that anyone on a Mac fan site can do to change this basic fact. Let us not forget that your computer is six years old. That is two computer lifetimes. I have only one Mac that is newer...

    G4/10.6 blue screen: which prefs to delete?

    MacOS X 10.6 Snow Leopard is Intel-only. It cannot be installed on a PowerBook G4 or any other PPC-based Mac. MacOS X 10.5 is the most recent OS that will install your computer.

    eMac Upgrade questions

    If you need IE for your website, then clearly you don't need others to visit your website. At its best, IE is the least standards-compliant browser available. IE 5.2.3, the last Mac version of Microsoft's browser, is so unstable that it will crash if you breathe on your monitor. IE 6, the latest...
