i believe what you are showing in that pic is Spotlight... Mikuro i was just commenting on lurks mention of using 'Find in Finder' the old way - i am not actually using 10.4 yet, but others have commented that the old way of finding files is not available, only Spotlight is available for...

i saw somewhere that you could unstuff files without Expander in 10.4, but can not remember where...it may have been on the Apple Support discussions... anyone know what to use to do that? addendum: i found this at Apple Support: no problems with .zip files: you simply double click...

it has been mentioned in other threads that the old way of Find from the Finder is not available in Tiger?? it works for you? :eek:

so Launchbar works well in Tiger? that has always been my favorite way to launch apps! :cool:

send a feedback to Apple! that is one way they will know people still want to search by 'find file' method as well as Spotlight... also, i thought Spotlight automatically indexed all drives connected to your computer? where is this 'other system'?

hey Fryke have you seen this: Normally, you just type the phrase that you are looking for in Spotlight and it will find various different kinds of information including emails, contacts, documents, images, movies, music, PDFs, images, presentations and more. This gives you a great view of...

Thanks Satcomer! that is what i was afraid of.... is Appleworks able to open Word docs? i thought that i heard that a while back....

has anyone received their new iMac [Rev B] yet? and if so, is Classic installed with Tiger or do you need to install it when you get the iMac?

has anyone had any luck using Office X rather than Office 2004? i happen to have Office X myself and was hoping it would work when i get my new iMac w/ 10.4 :cool:

they do colorization here: http://www.colorwarepc.com/content.aspx?id=34 looks really nice!! but $500+ for color when ordering an iMac is way too steep for me! but they do only charge $399 for the skin and sell stuff for PB's and other mac stuff! :confused...

i do not know about you, but the Rev B iMac had all the upgrades i had hoped for as well as a few surprises like the Airport express and Bluetooth included... with the 2.0ghz processor, Radeon 9600 XT video card w/ 128mb ram, 8x superdrive and larger standard hard drive as well as the 667mb...

i have been using Jaguar, not Panther so i have not seen that... can you open the finder window and do a find that way in Tiger? sounds like you need to organize a feedback campaign to Apple to get some new options added in the next update to 10.4 :D

maybe Apple could add a contextual menu to Spotlight with a selection of: 1] list filenames first 2] list applications first 3] list by extension first that might help... i currently use LaunchBar to load most apps as i do not like to clutter up the dock so showing apps first would...

hey, well at you have the cutting edge of technology OS to work with :D

hey drunkmac are you running 10.4 on your G3? how does it do on that machine?

ah, i understand now Fryke! i did not realize that what you were saying about the search by filename being gone with Tiger....that would be nice to have for searches like that without all the extraneous stuff you get in the Spotlight search... maybe enough feedback to Apple will bring that...

well, my thought is if you search for .pl and do a 'show all results', it may at least show the .pl files grouped together by location which would make it a little easier to find what you need....maybe... :confused:

i am not sure what you mean by not being able to find script.pl files with Spotlight? i did a search for .jpg with Spotlight over at the apple store [i do not have my new computer w/ tiger yet] and it found over 1800 files [which i assume was all of them] it shows a few, or you can click...

i think it is easier to download at versiontracker.com :D

anyone using a CRT w a G5 tower w/ the Radeon 9600 XT and a vga hookup? if so, is it w/ the dvi-vga adaptor and how does it work? i am thinking about getting a tower but like CRT's myself so would be using that set up and was concerned after seeing a lot of new mini owners having CRT...
