Hi. In Windows, when I wanted to print just a portion of a webpage, I would highlight the passage, click File, Print and choose 'Selection'. And only that highlighted part would print. With Mac OS, I don't have that choice, on either of my printers. It prints the entire page no matter what...

Thanks Onslaught. I'll try that. Dean M

IT WAS A TYPEO. I know 10.4.9 insn't released yet. Apparently (according to Fyke) there aren't any .wav files at all. Wonder if I can get some from my installed Microsoft Office for Mac..........

Thanks. Can I convert the .aiff sounds to .wav ? And it was a typo. I know 10.4.9 isn't out yet.

Thanks ORA. I'll put that site in my Favorites. But it doesn't direct me to any .wav files in Mac OS X.

Hi. Where does Mac OS 10.4.9 keep the .wav files? I want to change my Thunderbird incoming mail notificaion sound. I didn't find any reference in Mac Help or Search in this forum...... Thanks. Dean M

Thanks Simbalala.......That looks more comprehensive than the Apple Script I found here: http://scriptbuilders.net/files/rebuildlaunchservicesdatabase1.0.html Although this worked very well, I'll backup my arsenal with ONYX. Thanks again.

Hi. I'm answering my own question. The reason you get multiple apps. in 'Open With' context menu is a corrupted 'launch services' database. After several hours of searching I found a downlodable Apple Script written by Cuneyt Ocaklilar here...

I have two and sometimes three of the same apps. listed when I select the 'Open With' option in a context menu. I would like to delete those duplicates..... In an earlier Thread, bobw suggested a utility named Zingg. That's an interesting choice, but doesn't address my problem.. Anyone...

Hello bobw. I looked at Zingg's website, but it doesn't look like what I need. I have several duplicates when I select the 'Open With' option in a context menu. I would like to delete those duplicates......Thanks. Dean M

Hi. Anyone out there know how I can get Safari to allow me to download images to folders other than the default options: 'Save to iPhoto' or 'Save to desktop'. Every other browser I've ever used lets you choose a destination. Thanks, Dean M

Hi. Is there a way to delete some of the 'open with' items in a context menu ? When I click on an image that I want to edit somewhere other than Preview, I get several duplicates of each choice like iPhoto, iMovie, HP Photo Edit, etc. I looked in the User/Context Menu items, but those are...

Thanks for the info BW......'ppreciate it.......Dean M

Hi. How do I strip multiple quote marks >>>from Emails that I want to forward. I was told to choose 'forward inline' and the original header and marks would be removed automatically. That doesn't seem to work with my Mac OS X Mail.app. or Thunderbird. I still need to delete the marks...

Thanks folks ! Seems so simple once you know what to do........Dean M

Hi. Is there a utility, app. or script that can eliminate the forward > marks in an Email? In Windows there was a free download utility called Yankee Clipper that copied the Email to the clipboard and when you copied it back to Email, the hatch marks were gone. Thanks folks. Dean M.

Thank for the input Sinclair. I'll look into the ioGear.....Dean M

Hi. I see in the discussion groups that there are a lot of problems with Bluetooth adapter modules for the G4, such as the D-Link one that Apple recommends. Mainly, and I know this happened with my G4, the Mighty Mouse doesn't wake up after you put the G4 to sleep. (I borrowed a Hawking HBTC...

Thanks guys. I can delete the printers using Bonjour. Dean M.
