    Printer won't print

    I have occasionally had this same problem. I believe that it's a bug in the HP driver. When this happens, the Print Center message usually says something like "Printing page 0 of 2". Notice it says "0", not "1". When everything is working correctly it says "Printing page 1 of 2". My...

    Can't send mail after 10.2

    That's exactly my problem. I can read mail, but can't send it, unless I turn off password protection. But is that something I really want to do? This worked just fine in 10.1.5, it's only busted now in 10.2 (and 10.2.1). If this is really being caused by Rendezvous messing with the...

    Can't send mail after 10.2

    I just installed 10.2.1 today (from 10.1.5). I'm having the same problem sending mail. I've already changed my hostname to 'localhost' and rebooted, but it doesn't help. The message I get is: Then it prompts me again (and again, etc.) for the password. Any ideas? Please...

    Jaguar and Classic

    But I assume that if you have your disk partitioned (with OS 9 and 10.1.5 on different partitions) you should be able to do a clean install of 10.2 in that partition, without affecting OS 9. Right?

    Jaguar is $50 off at Amazon!

    What do you mean? What seems fishy? If you look up Mac OS 10.2 Jaguar, there's a link to the $50 rebate right there on the page.

    What is your favorite UNIX shell?

    My vote also goes to the Korn shell (ksh). I can't believe it was left off the list. I only wish it was available on OS X.

    real player....

    drgreg, First, download and install the new real player for OS X (RealOne). If IE still just saves the .ram to the desktop, go to Preferences->Helpers, find the entries for Real Audio (.ram, etc.), click the "browse" button and select your RealOne player. IE should automatically run...

    On a related note, has anyone ever looked at the Adobe educational discount program? They offer discounts (~1/2 price) to all teachers and students including K-12 students.

    What's Your Profession?

    Yeah, what he said. :D I'm also a Software Engineer, working on Unix systems. I've been at it for a long time, and I still like it. It's a good fit for the way my brain works, I guess.

    No cc or gcc on MacOS?

    I think you have to load the developer tools to get gcc.

    Yes you can. Under "Message" there's an option that says something like "Add bcc field".

    Are you a longhair?

    Ed, I agree - it's the easiest possible hair style (other than the shaved head). I just brush my hair in the morning, put it in a ponytail, and that's it. It stays out of my face without me having to put lots of crap in it, and I never have to worry about needing a haircut (once or twice a...

    The Random Quotes Thread

    Yes, I've always liked Bertrand Russell too. Here are a couple more: "The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time." "Men are born ignorant, not stupid. They are made stupid by education." and my personal favorite: "I've always thought respectable people scoundrels, and I look...

    problem playing CDs burned with iTunes

    You can set the number of seconds between tracks in the iTunes preferences, under the Burning tab. I don't think the problem is related to that.

    problem playing CDs burned with iTunes

    I've had the same problem. Here's one more data point. I've burned a bunch of CDs, only one had this problem. So, I re-ripped the original songs, and burned a new CD. It has the same problem, although I think the skips are in different places. Is this just a coincidence? or could it be...

    Pink Floyd

    About 20 years ago when I was in college (yes, I'm old - I already admitted that in the Zappa thread) I lived in a city that had an old abandoned power plant alongside the Mississippi river. One day while a friend (a PF fan) and I were "exploring" the place, we noticed that the two tall...
