Hi All, I'm confused. I just updated my iPod to work with iTunes new PodCasts features. After it was complete, a dialog box appeared (and quickly disappeared) saying something about how I should now use the power brick to charge and reset the flash memory or some such thing. The iPod...

Hi All, I've been working on a few projects that require non-technical users to create, update, delete records in a MySQL database through an online interface. I've been writing something in PHP, but it occurred to me that I'm most likely reinventing the wheel. I use phpMyAdmin, and I know...

Aha! My version of MySQL is 4.0.21, so I will upgrade. Many thanks to you both for helping me get to the bottom of this!

Hi All, I have a table called "articles." Each article has a date field called "pubdate" -- the article's date of publication. Many articles share the same publication date. I need to perform the following sql query: "Show me ONLY the articles with the most recent pubdate." So the...

That did the trick! Thanks ksv!

Hi All, I'm trying to use .htaccess to force a file (named, for example, "foo" intentionally with no suffix) to be parsed as PHP. This: <Files foo> ForceType application/x-httpd-php </Files> usually does the trick but doesn't seem to work on OS X apache (Tiger). The php...

Thank you both for those links. :-) I'll look into these more deeply, but at first glance: The ones adambyte posted seem to do very specific unix-based things, rather than being full-fledged terminal apps. As for BobW's link to neuromancer -- in reading about it, it seems slightly less...

Anyone know of anyone planning to develop a terminal widget for dashboard? I'm sure there'd be a lot of people who'd find that useful. Here's another thread about it: http://www.mcelhearn.com/article.php?story=20050414174201726

My point was that I used to be able to do just that, but in Tiger it doesn't work.

Yes, trashing the stickies db did the trick. Thanks.

Killing the Virex process worked like a charm for me. Finally some peace and quiet! ;-)

Bug I've found in Tiger Mail: In older versions of mail, I could compose a letter with hyperlinks, then test the hyperlinks before sending by saving as draft and looking at the message in the drafts folder. Now, hyperlinks don't show up "live" until I actually send the message, and it appears in...

I had the same problem, but uncommenting the PHP-related lines in httpd.conf then restarting Apache did the trick.

I've been having a problem where the RETURN key won't create a new line in the Stickies widget. Anyone have this problem?

Fryke -- That's an interesting concern. What if I put a disk image onto an external firewire drive or iPod, then attach that to the desktop machine and install like that?

Ah. That sounds like the ticket! Thank you ElD!

Hi All, I want to install (legitimately) Tiger on my desktop Mac G4 that doesn't have a DVD drive (without having to pay the $10 nor wait for CDs). I have a PowerBook with a superdrive (that I'm leaving 10.3 on) that I could network to the G4. Can I install Tiger to the desktop G4 in this...

Hi All, I've set up an array ($links) representing a list of links, and would like to loop over the list, create the links, and when I hit the current page ($page) find out what the prev() and next() items are in the array so I can create previous and next links. Problem: When I'm on the...

Never mind. Seek and you shall find. F2 on boot gives the BIOS and all its glorious options. Hope this helps someone else.

Hi All, Of course I should probably post this to a Windows board somewhere, but I don't fraternize with that ilk, so I'm hoping someone here has an answer. How do you boot from the Windows XP install CD (on a Wintel machine of course! ;) I tried starting with the CD installed, but no...
