    Login screen Screensaver?

    Does the screensaver run when on the login screen? And if it does, how do I choose it? I have moved all my Screensavers into my Home's "Library/Screensavers" folder for convenience, so if it requires I have them in the main Library, forget it. Just curious as I got the SereneScreen...

    A script. A script for fun I say. Help me write it.

    I would like to write a script. Either AppleScript or a Shell Script. Whichever is more convenient. That will be run at login. What it will do is randomly pick a file from a specified folder, copy it to a certain directory and rename it to a certain name. To clarify, it will pick a JPG...

    Classic History

    I just moved my "Classic.prefspane" from my System/Library's PreferencePanes folder to a Disabled folder and now it won't show up in Preferences. Can I safely remove the file "Classic Startup" from /System/Library/CoreServices too? I haven't used Classic in ages and would really like to...

    Remove the Folders ~/Movies, ~/Music etc

    It's just gonna keep doing it I guess. At one point I had deleted my Public folder and it never came back. Ever. I don't know what to say, you can't make the OS stop doing it. They should put the option in, but for now, it's just gonna keep happening. Someone will probably tell you how...

    Unable to move items on the desktop & dock

    Great. Not THIS bug again. There are some cache files to delete. It happened to me, and about a million other people who see it for the first time and post a thread about it. I hate this bug. I hope I never see it again.

    Scale effect in the finder!

    I just found that out unfortunately. I don't know of a way to turn the scaling one off. I seem to remember hearing it is possible. But don't know where. Try www.macosxhints.com

    System UI Server

    Still, I recommend updating. Maybe the leak was something fixed by the update.

    Safari and Hotmail not working?

    I bought the MacOSX.com address. No problems here. I also got one with Comcast, so I have two now.

    Safari and Hotmail not working?

    Hotmail is a Spammer's hotel. Frankly, I wish it would die.

    all icons are gone!!

    One thing to realize is Jaguar Finder = VERY BUGGY. I get icons disappearing all thje time. Some lose associated icons. Very annoying. Quit Finder, relaunch. It works. Oh, I have LimeWire installed. It doesn't make a difference. It's a fluke. Coincidence. If Panther's Finder is this...

    Maximize Windows

    In some apps if you hold a certain key while clicking the Zoom button, it'll do the full size. I dunno which apps, but some do. Frankly, I don't know how I ever got along with that feature in Windows. I like the zooming. Unfortunately, one day the biggest PC Zealot came over and showed me...

    iChat Emotion Shortcut Keys...?

    You can even type them without "noses" (Hyphens) Some have alternate versions. I saw the list in a .plist file hitten in the InstantMessage.Framework Package. I wonder if there's also a way to make new ones? (Albeit they only get shown on computers who have the same ones installed. But that's...

    .mov to CD

    Wait a minute. Is there a way to use the Finder to burn the CD in a format compatable with PC's? I burned my first CD the other day (In fact, I just burned one fikle to it. A 500+ MB .Mov file) but it's in Mac HFS+ Format. I didn't see any option to burn a DOS compatable version. At least not...
