That is pretty much the advice I gave them. If they don't do something about the power issues, they will just toast their repaired (or replaced) computers...

Ok - I am posting for a couple who are young missionaries in Guatemala. They have a pair of Apple computers - a 15" Aluminum PowerBook, and a MacBook. All I know about their problems are posted below. I have already told them that I believe that the root of the problem is related to the...

My old dualie (main home computer) was shut down properly last night (I don't turn it off very often, but had company over who slept in the same room as computer). This morning, no boot. No fans, no light, no sound of any kind. I tried pressing the PMU reset button. That made no...

I have come to the conclusion that the track pad is just worn out. It gets worse as the iBook heats up from use and/or charging. It works fine with a mouse connected (not the trackpad). Anyway - I am buying a replacement upper case (the track pad and upper case are a one-piece unit)...

Let us try this again... What computer model? There have been sever "iMac" computers... G3 (colorful CRT), G4 (lamp stand), G5 (flat panel), Intel????

In pretty much any application, if trying to use the track pad, it will just quit responding. The edges of the trackpad usually continues to function, but the vast majority of the pad becomes either completely unresponsive, or barely - (like it is stuck in something). Further, if a window is...

Entourage 2008 crashes after a long series of these error messages. Does it ever time.

Spoke too soon. After reading some nail and trying to delete the mail, it now pops that message back in an endless cycle. I click "ok" and the message pops back up. Dang it. I really didn't want to reinstall Office 2004 (and a bagillion updates). I want to smack myself for letting yhe Office...

OK, so I finally got my my nifty Office 2008 in (Teachers & Students). Install seemed to go smoothly---BUT. Entourage wanted to import my old Entourage 2004 identity. That's fine. But subsequent launches of Entourage results in a warning: Could not open that feature. An unknown...

OK - I have been battling my MDD for the last several months. It started loosing the date/time settings when shut down (once a month or so). I ordered a replacement battery - and it did not fix the problem (cheap battery). So I ordered a new one from OWC - and didn't think much about it...

I will have him check that, but he had warranty work done a while back that included the midplain issue...

A buddy just called and said that he thinks he lost his computer to lightning... It is a G5 iMac. He has all of his stuff plugged in through a Belkin 550VA UPS. Nothing else appears to be hurt... Just his iMac that won't boot. No sound, no nothing. He took the back off to see if there...

OK - so I just spent the last several hours working on two assignments. Had two similar format reports to do. I completed the first and saved it to my USB thumb drive. Great. I then used the original document as a template for the second report (similar headers and such) and simply deleted...

I too just sudenly started getting this message with Safari..... Very strange. YOu don't happen to be using DirecWay internet service, would you?

Fix worked a month ago with my MDD desktop, but didn't work for my iBook...

Sad - iMovie is pretty darned simple. If the movie you make still turns out too big (file size), there are other apps to trim them down, but I have been able to get iMovie files down pretty small. It all depends on what you are doing with them. And you have to like the price!

I tried the .plist deletion - didn't help.

It appears that the OS X 10.4.4 update has broken QuickVerse software. Anyone else having a problem?

OK - just started a little over a week ago - One of my hard drives in my MDD dual 1Ghz PowerMac has quit mounting on the desktop. I can usually get it to mount using DiskUtility. Running Disk First Aid doesn't find anything wrong 99% of the time. The one time it does, it's normally a file...
