Instead of going through Mail 2's Import menu, do the following (this applies to those of you that backed up your Library and did a fresh install rather than an Upgrade): 1.) Quit Mail 2 if it's running. 2.) Remove the Mail folder from ~\Library (if it exists) 3.) Remove the...

There's a package on the Upgrade CD that can be removed to turn it into a full CD, at least with the Panther upgrade. I purchased my PowerBook the weekend Panther came out and it came with Jaguar on it.

The plugin is probably in "/Library/Internet Plug-Ins" or "~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins". Delete it from there. The Adobe plugin is horribly slow.

My old website (on my old host) makes use of an .htaccess file with a "php_value auto_prepend_file /path/to/global/file" in order to provide each page of the site with global variables containing path information, etc. This is very useful for developing a site locally and then uploading to...

Does Tiger finally support booting OS X off of a USB hard drive?

The software for my new HP Photosmart 2710 are horrible too. I got it for Christmas primarily for my PowerBook to replace our old PC-only HP 722c (which I did get working with the Unix drivers, though it printed green instead of black...) If it wasn't for the fact that I already sent in all...

Why can't they just use what it's called everywhere else... ZeroConf. I'd think a user could understand what that means when someone says "ZeroConf networking" rather than "Bonjour". It sounds stupid to even say it in the same sentence as networking.

I'm no OpenGL expert, but I had similar problems when I was learning how to texture a cube, it looked fine untextured, but textures would flicker. I think it either had to do with not clearing a certain buffer properly or the order I specified the texture coordinates.

The current OS has the option to use the F-keys normally and use FN for the screen controls, etc. instead of the default backwards way for the portables.

There are plenty of times when Apple breaks their own guidelines though, which is a shame. Sometimes it catches me off guard when I'm used to being able to just look at the buttons instead of reading the message.

iMovie has been giving me lots of problems (probably my worse experience with anything Apple). It seems to have a mind of it's own... works one minute, than does something completely different or just crashes. It's a very poor product from what I've dealt with this week. iMovie 4 had plenty...

Some divx movies use xvid, so you might need to download that as well. I haven't had troubles with the OS X version of Divx (from divx.com) in conjunction with xvid.

I remember when I was in high school before the first line of iMacs came out. (I had sold off my PowerMac for a Gateway but I still followed Apple news once in a while.) I was thinking that the iMacs were going to be big... the first truly stylish computer. (Not really my taste, but anyway...)...

Try downloading the software for it off of HP's website and install it. Then you could try adding it again.

I was analyzing the two images at 1600% in PS and noticed that Windows and the Mac do display letters at the same height pixel-wise, however there's seems to be no spacing between the letters on the Mac and on Windows there is a definite one pixel gap between letters. Also, by looking at...

I've never noticed a problem reading HTML mail, however It's annoying that I can't forward HTML mail because Mail won't send HTML mail properly. Any chance that you can try viewing them in another email client?

I was specifying 11px Verdana for both platforms. Turns out if I use Arial the fonts are much closer in size for some reason. The same goes for Georgia... on Windows, the fonts are spread out more but if I use Times New Roman, they are a closer match.

I took a couple screenshots of my problem. I'm sizing my fonts with pixel values to avoid the problems with DPI and browser font-sizing quirks. However, in Windows (any browser) the fonts are still bigger than on the Mac, and the text ends up wrapping in places that I don't want it to...

It would probably be a database function rather than a PHP function. But I'm no expert either.

I believe you can have a CD (or disk image) auto-open its window on insert... I think it's a matter of "ejecting" the disk image in writable mode with the window open before making it read-only... it then saves the window size and position in the .DS_STORE file. Also, if you want to add an...
