    Windows Networking and SMB Error -5000

    Quote: what did you install to get AFP running on Win2k? I seem to vaguely recall an "Apple Services for Windows" or something similar. We have Macintosh Services running on the Win2k server. But I seem to recall that the Mac services on the Win2k is an archaic and feeble attempt to get...

    Brushed metal initiative

    When is Apple going to learn that The Function of an OS is not defined by the look. The visual aspects of the OS should all be customizable so that each user can create their own experience. Afterall, you already bought the OS, you must be a user, why now give that user choice so they can add...

    Windows Networking and SMB Error -5000

    Can someone set me straight on something? I am working on a network where we use a Win2k server as out central production server. We connect to it from Macs and PCs. Currently the majority of Mac users are on OS9, but we are testing OSX. I have been connecting to the Win2k server from OSX using...

    Windows Networking

    BinaryDigit is correct. I have been working out the same problem. It is necessary to have a user on the Mac that is the same as a user on the Windows side so that they can authenticate. Or try the method that BS describes above. I am currently experiencing a problem where no matter what I do ...

    System Crash/Cursor Disappearing

    Are your problems with OSX Native apps or Classic apps running in Classic? If they are classic apps, there are all sorts of video driver issues with classic compatability. Photoshop 6 running in classic is horrible when it comes to redraws and moving objects. Drag and drop is problematic when...

    System Crash/Cursor Disappearing

    More Info on this problem. I have reinstalled the Wacom Driver. Backdated it to the previous version which still works with the Intuos II tablets. Doesn't seem to be related. Today I was copying a file to a server when it froze. The scrolling progress bar continued to scroll, but the progress...

    Problems with X11

    Usually you can fix this by removing your .xinitrc file . Running X11 again will generate a new one and the behavior will be fixed. I had this same problem. If yours was missing entirely, I am surprised it did not create a new one. What version of X11 are you running?

    Tip: Drag and Drop text in Terminal

    I happened across a nifty shortcut today while using the terminal. If you would like to copy and past a filename from one place in the terminal into the command line, rather than selecting the text and using copy/paste, you can select the text and grab it and drag it just a little ways down in...

    Finder FTP... does it work yet?

    >I believe the FTP functionality built into the Finder is read-only, period. Right, but should it stay this way? Certainly not.

    Does anyone else wish they could close a window with expose?

    I just sent feedback to apple about this. I also suggested the ability to minimize from Expose as well. The behavior I described would be the ability to minimize or close as many windows as the user likes before selecting the desired window to bring back to the front. I hope they bite.

    Finder FTP... does it work yet?

    I am experiencing the same behavior using 10.2.6. Also, some of my folders do not even allow me to read the files in them. If I login to the same server with Transmit using the same username and pass. I get everything as it should be. Apple needs to address this. FTP via the finder is long overdue.

    System Crash/Cursor Disappearing

    I have been experiencing a random crash of sorts. My cursor simply disappears in the middle of working and I can then do nothing. The system seems to still be operational because iTunes keeps streaming in the background. I can't however perform a force-quit. It is as if the entire USB chain has...

    To go one step further, is there a simple way to metalize the compose and message windows as well? Where can I find a copy of "Metalize"? I have searched high and low.

    [HOWTO]Get rid of Safari's brushed metal look

    I am a big fan of the brushed metal look. Just did my Mail App. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that the entire look of Panther is going to be brushed metal, even for finder windows. But for us Jaguar users, does anyone know of a way to Metalize the finder windows?

    Does anyone else wish they could close a window with expose?

    I often want to close multiple windows in Photoshop and being able to get to them and close them via Expose would be great. It would defeat the whole purpose to have to activate Expose, select the window then close it and then reactivate Expose. If you could activate it once and then close more...

    OS X is not a true UNIX because of POSIX

    I don't know, but I'd put my vote on Balmer & Gates as a couple of Unix.

    Startup Delay Before Spinning Wheel Appears

    Well, it appears I solved it. After detaching all hardware, pulling some RAM and having no luck. I decided to do a clean install. After installing 10.2. It booted right up. I have added all updates and security patches and still working fine. I am very surprised that after doing disk firstaid...

    Startup Delay Before Spinning Wheel Appears

    DeltaMac, I have tried all that you describe except for removing the video card and detaching externals. I went through the Safe mode start and ran FSCK. It even takes 20 minutes when booting into Safe Mode so it is a result of something before the system begins to load. Or it is failing to...

    Startup Delay Before Spinning Wheel Appears

    I'm hoping someone can help me on this, it's driving me crazy. I have a B&W G3 with a G4 550 upgrade in it running 10.2.6. When I boot the machine, I get the chime, the screens (I have 2) come on and the apple appears. I hear the hard drive initialize with a few clicks and then nothing. I...
