If you're not adding annotations and it's just a slideshow try these slideshow apps: JpegDeux 1.8, Slides 1.0, SlideShow for Erik 1.0,

Yes, this is nothing more than a work-around for Mail. If you want to specifically Hide the app (so that you can select "Show" from the Dock pop-up menu for example) instead of closing the window you could change the last line of the script to something like: tell application "System Events"...

Same here -- sent the bug report to Apple. Maybe if they get a bunch of them they'll be more inclined to have a look...

So there's a problem (of course) with my previous suggestion: What if the application takes longer than a second or so to open? So here's an updated version of the script which waits until the applications is in fact running: tell application "Finder" to launch application "Mail" tell...

Instead of launching Mail on login, why not launch an AppleScript application instead which does the job for you. For example: tell application "Finder" launch application "Mail" end tell delay 1 tell application "Mail" close window 1 end tellSave that as an applicaton, add it to...

Check out FreePOPS which allows you to POP from a free Hotmail account (and many others). There seems to be a problem with some Hotmail accounts over the last few days, but the project is active and fixes seem to come down the pipe pretty quickly.

Make sure the "Hide" box is checked for the apps in your "Login Items" list... that should do it. From the Mac Help files:

I used Fink to install glut and glui packages: fink install glut glut-shlibs glui glui-shlibs Then I edited monkey.cpp similar to Mikuro's suggestion : #include <OpenGL/gl.h> #include <OpenGL/glu.h> #include <GLUT/glut.h> #include <glui.h> and the Makefile to search /sw/include and...

If that doesn't work, re-routing something or other past the primary coupling thingy seems to work wonders also..... ;)

... and if you want to pursue the Linux route, I installed Fedora Core 6 on a MacBook Pro. Everything you need is explained on the Dual Booting page at Mactel-Linux.org. I used the "BootCamp + rEfit + LILO" described in th final section to let me use the ATI accelerated drivers. It also shows...

I've tried to duplicate the problem you're seeing on my MBP and it seems to work fine, either with TERM=xterm-color or TERM=vt100. In either case I use :vsp to get a vertical split, and then the following key combo to adjust the width: Ctrl-w then Shift-< or Shift-> Here's the full output of...

Have you got any proxies configured? Try unchecking them all in the Network System Preferences pane shown here (click on thumbnail for full-size pic):

When OS X on Intel was announced, IIRC, it was added that every release of OS X had been ported to Intel. Seems like an awful lot of work for an operating system that's going to get the chop. Would've been a lot easier to announce Intel Macs running Windows in the first place, doncha think...

Applications aren't executable via a shell command since they are actually directories whose contents are layed out in a specific way, and which "look like" applications to the Finder. Try using the open command to launch these applications: 30 * * * * open /Users/myhomedir/RTdesktop.app...

I don't think the storage is built-in though is it? Looks like "Airport Disk" is an option if you plug in a USB drive...

... With "Disk Utility" perhaps, but there are other options: Commercial utilities: iPartition VolumeWorks .. or if you're technically inclined and like the command-line, there's the free "parted" program (there's a nice explanation here, you can download the free ubuntu live CD and burn...

See if verbose boot is on: Boot Text thread

... such as the firefox extension "ReloadEvery"... Firefox 2.0 only. If you're interested in a home-grown approach how about an Applescript like this: repeat tell application "Safari" do JavaScript "location.reload(true)" in document 1 end tell delay 600 end repeat

There's another project underway called FFScroll which (according to the blurb on Apple's site) improves upon the iScroll2 software. It's not an Apple product, they're simply providing a link to it. "Most notably running in `absolute’ mode allows the driver: - Two-finger scrolling like the...

You can provide multiple '--exclude=' arguments: sudo rsync -az --exclude='.Cell_2004*.pdf.*' --exclude='.Nature_2003*.pdf.*' /Path/To/Source/ /Path/To/Destination/ As for effectively deleting files, I'm sure there's some utils out there but to be honest a good old "sudo rm" does the trick...
