    Airport express...what am I doing wrong?

    This is driving me nuts. I've set up my new Airport Express unit to stream music from iTunes to my HiFI. Thing is the option to select the Airport Express unit (named Lounge) only appears in iTunes when I select 'Lounge' from the main Airport menu. In doing this I lose my internet connection...

    Hidden Volumes?

    Thanks for that. It's odd though that Toast found this area to create an image file.

    Hidden Volumes?

    I recently created a disc image using Toast but could not find the Disc Image when it had completed. Upon investigation I realised the Disc Image had been saved somewhere called 'Volumes'. Thing is I can't find Volumes anywhere even though I can select in Toast when asked where to save the Disc...

    AVI to DVD question

    I tried Toast to burn an .AVI file to a DVD disc and had some success, but a few files I have containing a variety of audio formats failed to include the audio. I also tried iMovie and exporting to iDVD but I'd prefer one app to handle everything. So my question is...is there a better program...

    Stupid question - How do I "cut" files?

    The reason behind not being able to 'cut' files is one might 'cut' a file, forget to paste it and 'cut' another file...subsquently the first file 'cut' would be over written by the first and lost forever.

    In Entourage you can hold down alt when clicking the app to open. This brings up an option to rebuild the database...it's possible Outlook has a similar option...worth trying.

    Is it possible to install OSX on an early non-firewire iMac

    I have an old blue iMac, I think it's a 233 or maybe a 333Mhz, and want to run it as an iTunes jukebox connected to my HiFi. I've heard it may be possible to install OSX even though it has no Firewire ports is this true?

    Need HELP....Does anybody know a good.....

    I presume you are looking for a cheap utillity so this is probably way out of your price range but I thought it worth mentioning. After Effects does a damn good job of converting movies to animated gifs. Obviously one would only want to convert a small animation or such, as anything bigger would...

    WiFi iMac...

    Ignore all previous posts...I presume there is an existing network available so all you need is a WiFi to Ethernet Bridge. Plug it into the Ethernet port of any Mac/PC/Printer/Device and you're connected. This one is £60 but there are similar for around £40...

    Clicking Sound from Powerbook

    Sounds very much like the HD is about to fail, a regular clicking sound about 6 second intervals are definitely a sign. I would back up everything onto an external drive using Carbon Copy Cloner asap. (Free from http://www.bombich.com/software/ccc.html ). I cant recommend a particular drive...

    I opened my G4 433Mhz the other day to remove a HD and when I rebooted my WiFi network failed to connect. I checked System Profiler and it states no Airport card found even though the card is connected and securely inserted. I've since borrowed a friends card and still nothing shows up. Prior to...

    How Do I Change Short Name in My Account????

    I'd like to know if it is at all possible as I have to install Tiger on 7 identical G4's and would much rather install it once on a firewire drive, clone it to all 7 G4's, and change the user names to suit. But recently I returned an iBook to Apple for repairs, when I recieved it back complete...
