Thanks for the info. I can live with it for now. :) 10.4 sounds promising, though I'm sure something will be missing. :)

I have a few PHP-based sites in my Sites folder that I use for testing my websites before uploading them. I would like the contents of the folder to be inaccessible to other user accounts on the computer (to hide the contents of the PHP code) but obviously I need Apache to be able to access the...

Don't know why everyone keeps saying to use fsck over and over, I'm not a Unix expert, but doesn't that just check for disk errors? Once is usually enough. There's a default entry that can be changed that dumps you to a shell instead of the GUI at boot, I don't remember where it is, but...

Try using Activity Monitor and look at "all processes". See if there's anything taking up a lot of memory or CPU. If so, it should be easy to hunt down. Spyware on a Mac is very doubtful and even if it did exist, it couldn't access anything critical and trash your system like on Windows...

I agree... I feel more like learning Java now that there's code completion. I didn't like the Java-based IDEs so this is a great addition to Xcode. I also agree that collapsable regions would be nice. I didn't know about the commenting shortcut, thanks for the tip.

I forgot to set how to unpack my pixels... working now.

If you have a keyboard, mouse and monitor attached, you should be able to close it. According to the manual anyway, I don't have a keyboard yet.

Do a search... there's a thread on how to figure out your battery capacity. You didn't say what size your PowerBook is... but the 15" max capacity is 4600. My new battery reads at 4417, which is fine for me. Also, my new good battery lasts over 3 hours easily with all the extras on...

http://www.apple.com/server/documentation/ Try looking at User Management. I think you'd have to keep user home folders on the server though, but that might still be the best way to go (and easiest for the user to understand how to use). Especially if you have several eMacs that people can...

:D

I just noticed that when I opened a powerpoint file. I thought it was Microsoft being stupid, here it turns out it's Apple.

Have you tried other FTP sites to rule out that FTP server?

How new is it? Is returning it an option? It may be a hardware problem.

I have a 1.25Ghz 15". Had the first screen replaced for the white spot problems, the new screen has dark corners and dead pixels. I fought with Apple Store employees three times before they would replace my battery that only lasted 2 hours (on a good day), and then was interrogated again after...

I put together a tiny test program to try out some OpenGL functions. I'm having trouble with glDrawPixels(). The image displays but it's basically just like looking at static. You cannot distinguish the real image at all. I don't know much about OpenGL, but I can make a cube rotate in 3D. :D...

I use Mail with three accounts. It works great. I like setting it up in my startup item so that the icon notifies me of email in the background. Entourage didn't fit my tastes in some areas, but the calendar and ToDo lists are nice. I've never liked Eudora personally. There's also...

I've messed around with Blogger a bit. It's a pretty nice setup, though if you want to have multiple pages their template system and they way they upload files can be a pain to design around. For a simple log I would imagine it would work well. They have some nice templates. That iBlog...

The code completion for Java sure is a nice addition. And it looks like they fixed the broken SetFile tool. Yeah, a torrent file would be great for any new big downloads.

I've noticed a lot of redraw issues with Apple's classes lately. Try doing an explicit [indicatorName drawRect:[indicatorName frame]]; and see if it refreshes it.
