No, but you can have one smart playlist pick up from another one. So you could create a playlist that may include rock, alternative, and blues, then create another one that uses that playlist AND must include higher rating than two stars. Sure, it's an extra step, but it gets you where you...

The bars now measure throughput instead of signal strength.

That's not quite true. Yes, right now, there's no G5 processor upgrades, but I doubt that will stay true. And what's this about not being able to upgrade the graphics card? The only ones you can't upgrade are the ones in the iMacs, eMacs, and Power/iBooks since those are built in. But the...

Well, I'm not sure if it will. I'm not having this problem with Mail, but I thought it might have helped sort it out. My thinking was that if the mailbox was somehow corrupted in some way that it displayed two messages, then rebuilding the mailbox may fix that problem. Try it out and post...

Ed! It's been too long. How's it going? Um, how're you gonna show us your shiny new machine when you don't post any pics? :p

Try rebuilding the Mailbox and see if that fixes it. Mailbox menu -> Rebuild

Yep, Apple changed it because of what lurk said. Shameless plug here: You can use my app Pref Setter to play around with preferences. Works with Tiger. Think of it as Property List Editor on steroids. To note, though, it currently saves the files back in the XML plist format. An...

Hmm, I happen to like the mailboxes on the left, so I don't have a problem with that. I set up the drawer so it was open on the left in previous versions (wasn't hard to do, you just needed to move the mail window far enough to the right that it didn't have enough room to open the drawer on...

/System/Library/Components/CoreAudio.component/Contents/Resources/SystemSounds/ There are some different folders in there for various different parts of the OS.

Um, are you saying that ssh, ftp, telnet, etc don't work when you try outside the local network or on the local network? If you mean from outside the local network, then that's pretty normal. You need to go into the Airport Admin Utility, click to configure the base station, and select the...

Yep, new feature in Tiger.

Oh, I should have pointed out that you didn't need to use sudo the second time around. Since you're root in single user mode, you can use nvram directly. No problem. Glad you got it to do what you wanted. :)

Either hold down option while moving the mouse over a widget, or hit the X button near the bottom right of the screen while the widgets are up. Either way will show an X on the widget in the top right and you can click that to close the widget.

Well, here's another you can try then. Boot into OS X, then open up the terminal and type sudo nvram boot-args=-s. This will set the computer to boot into single user mode by default. Once you've done that, then restart into OS X. When you're done doing whatever it is you want to do in...

Scruffy, that's not true, you should say there's no easy way of getting back permissions. He'd have to go through every file one by one to switch the permissions back is all. By default, folders are created with the permissions 0755 (rwxr-xr-x) and files are created with the permissions 0644...

This should work. Hold down the opt key until the Mac's bootloader shows up. Then select your OS X partition to boot from. Hold down cmd+s, then hit the arrow to boot from that partition. It should start up in single user mode.

top -u will sort the processes by CPU usage on OS X.

Hmm, then just switch out taps. I mean, "it just works," right? :D

Yes. The multiple panes show that you are able to participate in multiple video/audio conferences. I'm gonna list a bunch of stuff from iChat's Help Book here: Hope that helps you out!

Windmill?? Fah, who needs something that new? A water wheel is much better for this sort of thing, I'm tellin' ya.
