There are so many fixes for Safari. Try removing any thiird-party tweaks. Try trashing all related com.apple.safar preference. Be sure an empty your cache and history. Last resortsw: reset Safari ... and download a fresh. copy Also check for weird plugins and remove for the time being...

Um, a bit of a warning on ServiceScrubber and Mail passwords ... long thread on Apple Discussions, my personal upshot on a new MacBook Pro is, I'll be damned, SS does cause some or all Mail accounts passwords to never, ever stick. Solution has been Pacifist and a fresh copy of Mail off the...

One, before you do and erase and install, there are a number of other, intermediate steps. The first is probably to create another account and see if it has the same problems ... and/or start up with your install disk and run Disk Utility from there, which is the only way your working volume can...

Be sure and empty the Safari cache. And be sure to delete all cookies that you do not recognize as logins you want to keep. This is not something Safari can do on it's own - I suspect it's a cookie. You can review them in Safari preferences under Security, where you can also check, Accept...

I'm not quite sure what you mean by No Choice ... but you can set which media types you want the Quicktime plugin to handle in browsers, in System Preferences/Quicktime/ Advanced. Check mp3 and iTunes should not open. Firefox has an extension for choosing players ... but the simplest thing...

My answer was incomplete. In Mail, under Accounts, Advanced, you have a setting to permanently download mail from server or not. Though of course Gmail archives everything, if you set it to. "Mail Unread Menu" is working fine for me in Leopard, on Intel.

Have you checked out Apple Discussions? Not to turn you away, I just know it is not solved in Leopard--there are conditions under which it will work. Also see SuperDuper's page for more info on this.

Makes sense to me in that Office doesn't do a lot of things it says it does. One just has to kinda go with the flow. You're talking Excel (workbook?) or Word? You could try trashing the preferences file(s) of whatever app is giving you problems, preferences do go corrupt.

I'd say offhand, it didn't get installed. Try again.

~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook.

Yes. Trash your dock preferences. ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.db, dock.plist and dockfixup.plist. If that doesn't quite do it, trash the Finder plist too.

There are several ways to start troubleshooting. The most basic is to throw out Safari preferences - and empty the cache, of course. Did you repair permissions after the update? Better late than never. Second step might be to download a fresh copy of Safari. Without knowing your maintenance...

I think you're confusing a PMU reset, which is a last resort, best done at the suggestion of an Apple tech, with clearing your PRAM. To do this, hold down all four keys at start up, and run thru the startup chime three times: Command-Option-P-R . Have you set up a RAM disk? Probably not- but...

There are any number of mail checkers for Mail, depending on what functions you want. Growl has Mail notifications... try searching http://www.macupdate.com ... But it also sounds as though you want IMAP mail instead of POP....

How about Gimp-Print - now known as Gutenprint. See http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3 .

Try another site checker.

Thank you Alex!

I believe this is a Launch Services problem, fixed either with a Leopard-trusted utility -- TinkerTool System and Mac Pilot come to mind -- or by moving com.apple.LaunchServices.plist from your user Preferences folder to the desktop & it will rebuild itself. Okay, I'd delete, but I try to give...

just found list of files Printer Setup Repair deletes -- in Tiger: com.apple.print.PrintCenter.plist com.apple.print.PrintingPrefs.plist com.apple.print.custompresets.plist com.apple.print.custompapers.plist com.apple.print.Cache.plist com.apple.print.favorites.plist...
