    10.2 with iMac DV SE 400?

    Well, I had an iMac 400 with 10.1.5 a few months ago. It ran great, so 10.2 should be even better.

    No more OS 9 support!

    You're being totally off-topic. I said that OS 9 can't be dropped yet because of software support, and because of the large number of Mac users that aren't using OS X yet. OS X is a great OS - it's stable, plenty fast (for me, at least), attractive, and much more powerful than OS 9 ever was...

    No more OS 9 support!

    I read in an eWEEK article that a tweak in the not-so-distant future will break OS 9 support on Apple hardware. Now, this seems like a horrible move to me. There are many applications that still only run in OS 9, and while breaking support for those applications will definitely get...

    Pro Keyboard on Slot loading iMac

    On my old machine (400 MHz iMac Slot-loading) I spilled soda on the keyboard, then replaced it with a Pro Keyboard. All the keys on the keyboard worked as they should.

    iTools password won't stick

    Hello, My iTools password won't stick. Every time I set it, it will switch right back to something else. It will change it back when I de-activate the window, log out, restart, or anything else. The password will NOT stick, and it gets really annoying having to open System Prefs and type...

    Awww....someone removed the Mozilla 1.0 thread.

    Chimera 0.3 has been released - it's faster and more stable than previous versions. But, the anti-aliasing now requires 10.1.5 :(

    I want an auto-handler for M3U files!

    Hello, I download songs off of MP3.com, and some of the artists use M3U files (resulting in a stream) instead of normal MP3 files. For every file like this, I must: 1) Download the M3U file 2) Open it in iTunes 3) Get info on the stream 4) Copy the MP3 URL to the clipboard 5) Open...

    The faster browser is…

    I think that Mozilla is the fastest. (Hey, you wanted a short answer, you got it!)

    I set the "usr" folder to unlimited access

    Well, the problem is fixed - I reinstalled OS X.

    I set the "usr" folder to unlimited access

    I did just as you said - set all the permissions for all the files you listed to what they should be. After I did all that, I closed the Terminal window and opened a new one - it just said it couldn't initialize the shell, then opened a blank window with a dam pinstripe in it. I then went to...

    I set the "usr" folder to unlimited access

    I'm still quite clueless - I don't know what I am supposed to do with what you guys posted. Chmod has this syntax: sudo chmod (some 3-digit code) (the file/folder) Those lists that you are giving me are not even similar - they don't tell me what codes to put in, so they are pretty much...

    I set the "usr" folder to unlimited access

    One little thing - I just checked the Terminal, and it seems I still see "Welcome to Darwin!" after "login: setgroups: Operation not permitted".

    I set the "usr" folder to unlimited access

    Sorry, but that's not very helpful. I have no idea of what I am supposed to do with what you wrote in your post.

    I set the "usr" folder to unlimited access

    Hello, I recently had a serious lapse of judgment, and typed this command in the Terminal: sudo chmod 777 /usr It obviously caused some serious problems. I booted into single user mode, and did this so I could use sudo again: chmod 4111 `which sudo` But, the rest of the usr...

    The REAL Floppy Disc!

    The ad specifically said that they are one-tenth the price of normal CD's.

    OmniWeb 4.1sp88! (Hint: Fixes really annoying table bug.)

    It's not OW's fault that AtAT is in bold! Just check the source code of AtAT - he forgot the end tag for some bold text (near the top). Just fix that in the source, hit "Redisplay" and you have a nice non-bold AtAT.

    There are no System Preferences coming up in the System Preferences application

    I'm not sure how to fix your problem, but here's a workaround that may work: Open the panes from the Finder. Just double-click on the .prefpane files in the Finder, and they should open up in System Preferences. Also, you may want to try deleting the .plist file for System Preferences--it...
