    How do I delete...

    In Mail, I think going to Window --> Previous Recipients will let you edit out those email addresses, although I'm not quite sure. I think of that list as being more for Mail's spam filter. Please let me know if it works.

    Is the Internet causing German to lose its Capitalization?

    I'm wondering if English-dominance on the internet is causing German to lose its capitalization of all nouns. What about the ß ("ess-zett") turning into a double s everywhere? The reason I ask is that I noticed a post in English on another forum using unusual capitalization. At first I figured...

    Firefox Theme Gnome: What the Heck Does this Mean?

    In FF for Windows, I tired moving the search field (box..? whatever) to the same toolbar as "File | Edit | ... | Help" and it is possible. That must be what the theme developer means. I suppose doing so opens up room for more icons on the navigation toolbar. Perhaps it makes even more sense in...

    Cable Modem ISP Won't Send Email

    It might be helpful to see if you can get Gmail's smtp server working. If that won't work either, perhaps the problem is something more than configuring Cox's smtp server correctly. Here are instructions: https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=13275 You might also take...

    Why did my broken cable modem only slow down?

    I'm very happy that replacing my six year-old cable modem quintupled my download speed, but what I don't understand is why the old one only slowed down. Why didn't it just stop working altogether? Can anyone give a relatively non-technical explanation? I'm just curious. It would have been nice...

    What Are Your Favorite Firefox Add-ons?

    I agree. The current conditions aren't great, but at least they're in the ballpark for me. Forecastfox is still better than going to my TV, changing the channel and waiting for the inevitable commercial to end. I thought the current conditions were better when Forecastfox used Weather.com than...

    [HOWTO] enable Safari to ask to save login password at all sites

    Thanks Rainy Day! Great info! I want to add another password to my keychain (after an update wrote over my edits to WebCore), so it's time to force Safari to submit to my will again. Your suggestions will save a lot of time.

    Safari: Can I Add a Tab Button to the Tool Bar?

    You might want to try Safari Enhancer again, with a different browser if necessary. I just downloaded both the 10.3 and 10.2 versions successfully. Perhaps they fixed the links. http://www.celestialfrontiers.com/safari_enhancer.php

    Mac OS X 10.4.6 released...

    On PPC, rebooting twice is expected (bullet point #2, near the top). http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303411 Fixed all of those silly, "We are using special permission" lines when repairing permissions. WooHoo!

    Safari or Firefox?

    The GrApple (Brushed) theme is very close to Safari. It even includes Safari-like icons for a lot of different extensions. The gear-looking icon on the far right is for Web Developer. The next icon is for the Autofill extension, but I had to edit the extension myself to use that icon. (I'm happy...

    Window UNminimizes on its own periodically

    I like to keep a window for Chicken of the VNC minimized in my dock. I've noticed that it UN-minimizes itself periodically, putting COTVNC as my top-most application. I'd like to make this behavior stop or at least investigate why it's happening. (Is there a better word for "un-minimize"?)...

    Can I switch from 'Rise of Nations' to desktop?

    Rise of Nations runs full screen. (In Windows-speak, it acts like a DOS program that takes over the entire screen, hiding Windows.) I'd like to be able to switch from RoN to my desktop without exiting RoN. Pressing cmd-tab doesn't do anything within RoN. Is there a way to get to the desktop...
