I have had the same problem with AVI files and being able to play them in OS X. On MacOS 9, I have the Intel Indeo Video 3 and Indeo Video 5 codecs which enable me to play most AVI files, but I have not been able to find MacOS X versions of these codecs. I'll have to look around again, but the...

I am assuming you meant Meloni and not Meroni since I found no books by Julie Meroni. So after doing a search on Amazon for books by Julie Meloni, I found the below books. Would these be the books you found useful? - Sams Teach Yourself MySQL in 24 Hours by Julie C. Meloni - Php Fast &...

I would just go pick up a couple of good PHP books at your local bookstore. Do your research first on Amazon or something to find what works for you. I suggest checking out the Sams Teach Yourself PHP4 in 24 Hours, by Matt Zandstra. It's been a great starting text to learn PHP, I found it...

I'm not sure if this helps or not, but I can share a directory on my Win2K machine and connect to it via my MacOS X machine. I simply share the folder on my Win2K machine, then on the MacOS X machine I type one of two things. smb://computername/SharedFolder smb://192.168.0.100/SharedFolder...

From what I remember you have to get an addon for PCMIA cards. The iPAQ allows you to put one of the regular 802.11b cards in this slot, which I already have. To bad there isn't something like this for the Palm. The addon is like somewhere in the neighborhood of $50 to $100 someone told me...

More errors.. /usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -ldb make: *** [master] Error 1 make: *** [update] Error 1 When using 'make' during the postifix install. The 'ld' file does appear to be there when I do a directory listing of 'usr/bin' but it doesn't find it I guess. I'm not sure what...

I'd like to go ahead try the Postfix install but the tutorial is about a year old. I can no longer find the PCRE patch mentioned in the tutorial as being the stepwise site. I can also not get Postfix to install according to the directions given. When trying to create the makefile it gives...

Sweet, I'll definitely have to check this out. I'd really love to create database tables to store information gathered from user input on web forms, instead of flat comma delimited text files. I think a database structure would be so much more powerful.

I'd still like to get a hold of one of the Rhapsody DR1/DR2 CDs that contained the installer for Rhapsody on Intel machines. You got a copy and want to sell it, or make me a copy, let me know.. :-)

When I first started doing web development programming about a year ago, I started with Perl CGI scripting. Perl was alright to learn but I have never become completely comfortable with it. My programming background is primarily in object oriented langauges like C/C++ and Java. So learning...

I've actually been considering an iPAQ myself, but I don't think it interfaces with a Mac either. I currently have a Palm m505, but I'm thinking about selling it. It was cool for a while, but a big hassle for the little that it does for me. I mean, if it could get on the net like the iPaq, I...

I was wondering if anyone knows how to setup a Mail Server in MacOS X. I know it's possible because I have heard of others doing it. I'd like to setup my mac as a Mail Server where I could get my mail either via IMAP or POP3. Also, others would be able to send me mail at...

That's great to hear since this was exactly was I was planning to do. Either Windows 2000 or RedHat or Mandrake Linux. Don't happen to remember how much you paid for the basic version. I thought it was only like $59 at one time for the basic DOS version. Someone told me it was more expensive...

How well and fast does Virtual PC work in MacOS X? I have been thinking about getting it, but I haven't been sure whether it would be worth the money or not. I already have a copy of the OS I would want to use under VPC, so I probably would want to buy a version that comes with an OS other...

Yeah, this sort of thing can be very simple in Excel. You just have to make sure of a couple things. The e-mail addresses are exactly the same in both files. What I am going to suggest is that you use the look up function in Excel. I'll first list an example function and then explain what...

I heard that the NetBoot feature from OS 9, but gone in OS X was supposed to reappear in Jaguar. Does anyone know if this true or not? If so, how well does it work? And what's using NetBoot with OS X generally like?

I agree with macko on this one. I have been looking for something like this for a long time as well. I don't want something that is industrially foolproof or something that would be cleared for military use to hide all of the nations secrets. I just want a nice little system addition where...

I am kind of curious, everyone is talking about getting this RDesktop thing to work. What exactly is RDesktop and what does it do or help you do. I've also been hearing a lot of people talk about XFree86, but I'm not quite sure what this is either. I'd appreciate someone explaining exactly...

I have a Umax scanner as well that doesn't work, or hasn't, not bothered trying lately. My SCSI Zip does thankfully work. My Plextor CD-RW used to give OS X kernal panics. Thankfully this was fixed in one of the updates and now I can use my Plextor CD-RW for read access, but no burning...
