    Setting up machine for my OLDER PARENTS

    1) In addition to what texanpenguin said, yes, TinkerTool can edit the size and type of font used on the system level 3) You'll have to run your Dad through a process of exporting though, if he wants to save his stuff as .doc-document. But he might as well use the standard format of Pages...

    iTunes Update Not Showing on Software Update

    You can download iTunes 5 from versiontracker.com, and presumably from Apple.com as well. It's nice btw, a bit to get used to, but the new folder function is really nifty :)

    What do you use Smart Folders for?

    Is a burn-folder a Smart Folder as well? Guess not.... So, I'm not really using 'em currently. Just as used as Spotlight is for me. Rarely to never :)

    WoW running real slow.

    Well, I would say the culprit is the RAM. Being 256 MB under the minimum specs can spell a HUGE difference in performance. If you would get more RAM for your machine, it should run quite a notch better, as all else seems well withing the bounderies.

    Missing Files/folder

    I wonder if the guy is reffering to the FireWire port on the later iMacs (Rev C and on, if I'm not mistakin) Which does not change the fact all iMacs including the first ones in 1998 have at least 2 USB ports

    How make Acrobat the default .pdf viewer?

    First of all, no, Preview is not a part of Safari, it's a stand alone application/utility, that can process PDF files and image files. :) To generally set the file type association, mark a pdf file, and press Command-I. A window will pop up, where you find under "Open file with..." a...

    Tiger And Adsl

    Hm, I checked the manual for the thing online. As configuring the Mac is not specifically mentioned there, I'll not the steps for the same configuration they mention in their manual for Windows XP: open the System Preferences (normally resides next to the Finder in the Dock) go to the...

    Tiger And Adsl

    A couple of questions to tackle the problem: Do you connect via PPPoE from the Windows PC as well? If so, the user-data collides at the ISP, and he blocks it (not to allow abuse, no log-in from two places at once) Have you tried to connect only with the Mac, without the PC connected to the...

    Really Xtremely Confused

    Of course the folks here use the games in native Mac versions. What else should we use? :confused: Virtual PC is far too slow to handel games well enough so that they are fun to play

    8x AGP graphics cards not backwards compatible?

    Ah, so if I get this right: For example the ATI Radeon X850 is labeled G5 only, as my mainboard in the G4 MDD is not cabable of delivering the right voltage to the card?

    8x AGP graphics cards not backwards compatible?

    I wondered... all the new cards from ATI state as requirement "Power Mac G5" (the X800 for exmple), but I wondered why? Isn't AGP basically backwards compatible so that an AGP 8x card can work in an AGP 4x slot?

    Sims 2 For Mac

    As it is published by Aspyr, you could use their GemaAgent application to verify. The application compares your specs to the minimum/recommended specs of the Aspyr games and tells you wether they run good, mediocre or not at all. Here's the link to it...

    iTunes 4.9 makes me want to break things

    I use QuickTime 7 and iTunes 4.8 without any problems. Have you both any means of getting an installer for the older iTunes? I don't know if it would help, but I would provide my iTunes 4.8 app if you can not find anything. Maybe I can also find an installer somewhere, let me have a look...

    How to combine two PDF files to one PDF with Automator?

    Don't mention it :) (Though I feel like a dumbass, as it was asked specifically for Automator. DUH!)

    Mighty Mouse - hate it so far

    I don't own the thingy, but an spontanious idea that I got: Have you tried disconnecting the mighty one and set the button mapping in the system prefs with your regular mouse? If that does not work as well, maybe try a fresh user account, to verify if it is a problem with account settings etc
