I've got a G4 933 (Quicksilver) with the original 60 GB drive and an additional 80 GB. Currently the OS and my applications live on the 60 GB, and the 80 GB is split up with partitions for mp3s, digital pix, work stuff (design), video files, etc - I have about 5 partitions going. Well, now I'm...

Seems to not be Default Folder - I turned it off and still the problem. A little more (and corrected) info. It seems that if I visit a folder in the finder and see that the new file(s) are there, after that they will show up in the open/save dialogs. A lot of times I'll pop over to the...

Should be no password set unless you set it. By default mysql is un-passworded. If I'm not mistaken. - Bob

Frequently, when I save a file out of one app and then go to open it in another app, it won't show up as being in that folder. Even if I go to the Finder and see the file is there, when I go back to the application and try to Open or otherwise access the file, it doesn't show up. Eventually...

Viro - the battery capacity is 3540, amperage 1230 (when about 54% charged and running on battery). Also it says "Curren$", whatever that means. How do those numbers stack up? - Bob PS - It seems to be behaving somewhat better lately, for whatever reason.

Battery reserve message appears normally, so meter seems ok. Battery life seems possibly shorter than it used to. Will the terminal script show the capacity of the battery as designed, or as it currently is (i.e. if the capacity has dropped will I be able to tell from the script)?

My wife's Powerbook is draining its battery when it's asleep (and awake, but that's normal). The other day she put it to sleep with 95% power available, and when she returned about 4 hours later it was down to 5% - while asleep! What's going on? How do we fix it? She did recently update...

I disabled PatchBurn (well, removed its drivers) and ran for quite a while before getting another freeze. Maybe it's better - I hope so. It's not "all better", just - better. Grr.... - Bob

Finally got around to trying this (haven't been doing much in iTunes lately). Created a new account and the problem happens there as well. It seems most common when dragging the position slider in a song, or switching songs while one is playing. It must be the Pioneer DVR-107 - that or the...

Yeee-haw! Got it! Found the Axis manual online and dug into the part on setting up Unix LPD/LPR queues. Turns out the queue name is "lpt1". So the settings are: IP Printing LPD/LPR 192.168.0.49 lpt1 and of course the right Gimp-Print driver for the 1270 Man - been working on this for...

OK - solved one big problem. The Axis was set to use a different router address than my wifi router. Got the Epson all set now and it's returning pings. But I still can't get my Gimp-Print settings worked out. First field: IP Printing Second field: do I select "Internet Printing Protocol" or...

I'm having trouble getting Gimp-Print (or anything) to work with my Epson 1270/Axis 1440 combo. I printed the test page listing the ethernet address of the printer, and TCP/IP is enabled, but for one, I'm unable to ping the printer. Should I be able to, or will a printer not respond to a ping...

No - I was able to access my home directory. When I turned on Windows Sharing, the address shown at the bottom was \\192.168.0.2\bob - which is my address on the LAN. I guess that would make sense if it was making available only the Public folder, but it's making the entire home directory...

I just set up an XP PC and turned on Windows Sharing on my Panther G4. When I set up a "Network Place" on the PC using the address shown in the Mac's System Prefs, imagine my surprise when I was able to connect to my own account WITHOUT entering a password!?! Now, it's just possible that...

Yup - that's it. I wasn't specifying the hostname in my grants.I should have granted to "dbadmin@localhost", not just "dbadmin". All fixed - thanks! - Bob

Since upgrading to Panther (clean install) I'm only able to connect to my databases as "root". I've granted access permissions to all my tables, using the (presumed correct) syntax: PHP: grant*select,*insert,*update,*delete*on*mydb.table*to*dbadmin*identified*by*'adminpassword'...

Updated to iTunes 4.6 and I'm still getting freezes. They happened: - when dragging the playback position slider at the top of the window - after importing a cd (to mp 3 format) - other miscellaneous times - usually when mousing around, switching tracks, etc. The only odd factor might be...

Now I find two of my rebates were rejected, with the excuse given as "no receipt", even though I sent in a copy of my order confirmation. Apparently they're picky and there's something different about a receipt (which I didn't get in my buy.com order). This isn't too surprising. Many rebate...

I've got two Airport (ok, Netgear) base stations at home at opposite ends/different floors of the house. I'd love it if there were some little utility that'd automatically switch to whichever one has the stronger signal. Not that it's any big deal to pull down a menu, but it'd just be nice if it...

Howdy, I recently updated my G4/933 to 10.3.4, and also got iTunes 4.5. Started checking out the iTunes music store, and found iTunes would freeze up periodically (standard mouse pointer cursor, but it wouldn't move), requiring me to reboot. So far the problems seem to have occurred when...
