Whenever I right click for the second time in a finder window (after viewing a file or folder's properties), it crashes and restarts. I've tried running Cocktail and verifying/repairing permissions on all of my drives but it still does this. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? It's...

I recently upgraded to a Mac Pro, mostly so I could run Parallels to test websites in Windoze and Linux. My machine came with 1 GB of RAM and after running Parallels it made my machine extremely slow. I upgraded to 3 GBs of RAM and set the amount of memory that Parallels could use to 176, which...

I'm having problems with my iMac. It locked up while using Safari so I held the power button down and turned it back on 15 seconds later. When the login screen came up I could see the cursor move around when I used the mouse but I can't click on any names to log in. I've tried powering up/down 3...

I'd been using a Linksys Wireless G router for several years with my DSL, but I recently upgraded to Verizon's FiOS. They gave me a wireless router to use, but I'd like to stick with my Linksys one instead. I tried setting it up but it wouldn't work so I'm thinking it may be because the MAC...

The "Do Not Disconnect" message that constantly flashes when the iPod is docked is extremely annoying. Does anyone know of a hack or anything to keep this from happening?

I need to clear the cache when doing web development work as sometimes the code doesn't refresh. I used to do this in the past and the icons never got deleted. It's strange that it started happening now.

On all of my previous computers Safari would always save the favicon. Now on my Mac Pro it deletes them everytime I clear my cache. Does anyone have any idea how to prevent this?

Is there anyway to test using Terminal if my ISP is blocking port 25? I know there was a way to do this through an MS-DOS prompt in Winblows, but I'm not sure how to do this on OS X.

Thanks man. You saved me a TON of trouble!

Awww bummer. THe only keyboard I have is an ancient one from my old PC with a PS2 cable. I have just about every kind of adapter in the world but PS2 to USB. Is there anyway else around it? Perhaps using the mouse? Could I insert the drive into my Mac Pro and install OS X to the spare drive...

I just reformatted my hard drive, but now since I dont' have a mouse/keyboard paired with the machine I can't eject the DVD drive to install OS X. Does anyone know how to get it open??

Any idea where to get the screws they're talking about that go on the sides of the drive? I have an extra drive that needs to be installed. It looks like they are large with rounded heads.

I had to take out my hard drive in my PowerMac G5, but now when I go to put it back in it just hangs there even when the slider (that says A) is pushed over. Is there some kind of trick to keeping it from sliding up and down? I've tried putting it in both the A and B slots.

I just set up a new IMAP account on dreamhost and Mail.app is not seing the Drafts, Sent, and Trash folders. I've sent mail to myself and have moved the email to the Trash and have tried Rebuilding and Synchronizing the mail account but it never picks it up. Does anyone have any tips?

I have SanDisk 12 in 1 card reader and it works fine with CompactFlash cards and my old Secure Digital card. I got a new one and now it won't mount. It works fine in my Treo 700p and I have data saved to it, but I can't figure out how to get it to show up in OS X. Does anyone have any...

iTunes 7. I ended up getting it to work after rebooting the iPod about 5 times. :)

I have a 5th gen video iPod and it refuses to mount. I've restarted both the iPod and my PowerMac and checked the cables (it beeps when I plug it in) but it will not mount. Any ideas?

Anyone? :)

Can someone tell me how to boot my PowerMac up to my second internal hard drive?

Duoh! That worked. Thanks!
