    HELP osx.3 missing driver/won't start

    Have you tried Command-Option-Shift-Delete? That should show you available startup volumes, including the Panther disc if it's inserted. If none of these startup keys works, then you have something more problematic than a deleted file. You may have a troubled logic board, or you may have set...

    How much does it take...?

    Twenty minutes later, I happened across this Washington Post article, illustrating the exact switch -- in Kansas, no less -- that I was talking about.

    How much does it take...?

    It's a little early to give up entirely; we may see a starkly different Congress after the midterm elections, and no one yet knows how the Supreme Court will treat this legislation. Still, I imagine those of us who lobbied our representatives to vote against this bill are as scared and as...

    Mail Reply to All

    That is indeed why I have about seven email accounts listed on my address card at this point. Somehow they've been piling up.

    Mmmm. Is SA logging right now? That would be helpful.

    Mail Reply to All

    I only ask because I've been using Mail for five years or more and have never encountered this problem. I think that bobw's line of inquiry was correct, and that there is some configuration problem that's keeping Mail from understanding your address. It should not be including you on "Reply to...

    Help needed with Spam Assassin

    Have you ever received any messages marked by Spam Assassin? Are the messages you do receive marked with any SA information? Depending on how SA is configured, you should see some additional header information, e.g., X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.1.7 (2006-10-05) on...

    Mail Reply to All

    If the mail sent to you has been sent to an address that forwards to your actual address, Mail may not know to prune your forwarding address from the list of CC recipients. Do you have any addresses forwarding to other addresses?

    Powerbook G4 wont' turn on HELP!!

    Do you hear anything at all when you press the power button? Do you see a color coming from the plug when it connects to the machine? You should see orange or green. If there's no color, then you have no power. If you look at the underside of the PowerBook, you'll see a button with five...

    Best Mac (iSync) Friendly Cingular Phone?

    I feel exactly the same way about my w800i. I've never actively liked a mobile phone before this one. It was a lifesaver when I was a touring musician in Europe, too. I don't know whether yours has an FM tuner, but that became a very useful tool for me.

    Best Mac (iSync) Friendly Cingular Phone?

    I have the SE w800i, which also does well, but is not perfect, with iSync. Calendar sync works without a hitch; phone sync will occasionally lose a number for no apparent reason (or even remove an entry that was previously synced on the phone). This is for me an irritation more than a major...

    Mac OS X Mail Problems

    It's possible this problem has now been solved, and that it had nothing to do with you. The .Mac mail system occasionally has outages, which are reported on the main .Mac support page. You could also re-enter your account settings, as described here, and see if that helps.

    FreeType installation?

    I think Fink installs Freetype versions in non-standard places. Try % ls -l /sw/lib/ | grep freetype and you should see freetype219/ If this is the case, you *might* want to try --with-freetype-dir=/sw/freetype219 And see whether that gets the same complaint.

    define @INC for perl

    IO::Socket::SSL is the required package. You can install this via CPAN if it's not already. Alternatively, try turning SSL off in the config.

    X11 over SSH not working?

    My understanding is that -Y is actually less secure, because it bypasses the X11-related security settings. -Y says, "Trust the remote server to have full access to my display." Read the end of this thread for more information.

    What does Mime file mean

    MIME refers to content type; everything on the internet has a MIME type, some more specific than others. Rich media MIME types are important on the web, because they indicate which plug-in (if any) the browser needs to load to handle a particular file. Flip4Mac *should* handle this MIME type...

    current app like "spaces"

    I have used Desktop Manager for about four years now. It's completely integrated into my working style, and has worked flawlessly for me on every OS and machine I've had including this one (see footer). I make no claims for its performance on the Intel machines, though. FYI.
