    Kernal Panics ?

    I get Kernel Panics when I disconnect my stuff when the iBook is asleep. Then again, I would panic, too, if someone took my arm or leg off in my sleep:).

    Have Dock read orientation preferences

    Let me get this strait: open up Dock in the MacOS folder in Dock.app with HexEdit (what is that?:confused: ) and find the little code that says "0x418200e4" and replace it with "0x60000000" and find "0x418200b8" and replace it with "0x60000000". Does HexEdit come with the developer tools, is it...

    Beige G3 not compatible with drives over 72GB?

    Because OS X does not allow a beige G3 to have a partition bigger than 8GB, and you can only have 9 partitions, does that mean that beige G3's are incompatible with HD's bigger than 72GB while running OS X? I don't even have a BG3, I'm just wondering...

    iMac slot-loading CD no longer ejects after 10.0.4

    I have gotten that error when I try to eject a disk when dragging it to the trash. It only happens sometimes, though, and it hasn't occurred for a while now. I got it to go away by leaving the disk in, and putting the computer to sleep.

    ZIP DRIVE not recognized

    Does it go "wzzzzz-chunk" over and over, trying to read a Zip disk when you put it in? My friend had that problem on his USB Zip 100. He couldn't fix it.:(

    Have Dock read orientation preferences

    What program do you have to open it with? I used the Find command in TextEdit, but it didn't find either of those (I copied and pasted).

    10.0.4 Released

    It's a little faster, and 7 apps all launched in less than 3 or 4 second, but that's probably just the pre-binding. I actually tested to see how long the battery lasts, and it was longer. Only about 3 1/2 hours, and that's when I wasn't doing anything (when I was, it said 2 1/2). That's the time...

    Speed Up OS X!!!! (with smoking weed)

    Is this speed gain on top of the speed gain from installing the Developer Tools that came with OS X? I already have that installed, and it gave me a little speed boost... Does DT 10.0.1 help on top of DT 10.0?It's probably just the System Optimization; even if it's been optimized before...

    Stickies?

    If you show invisible files, you will see a file called something like .stickies in your home folder. I'm not sure, but it probably holds the notes.

    Where is registration info stored?

    I haven't actually used Ircle myself, but the registration is probably in /Library/Preferences. That's because it would have the same registration info no matter who you log in as.

    How to have trash in the finder???

    If there isn't a way, then I can't make a Realbasic program that can set the default column widths (without actually having it open up the file as text, which I don't know how to do anyway)! Does anybody know how to go multiple levels deep in the Terminal or is it just impossible?! P.S...

    How to have trash in the finder???

    Does anyone know the terminal command to change a preference that is in 1 or more arrays? For example, inside com.apple.finder there is an array called ComputerOptions (which has options about the Computer window) and in that there is ComputerIconViewArangeBy. Thanks!

    Build 4K78

    Run software update. If it finds something, install it. If it doesn't, delete those three packages and then run it three of four times to get the updates again. That should fix it. I want to know why it happened. Is there anything you were doing, like messing with the packages or other system...

    Build 4K78

    Did you check the update log? If it says you don't have one of the updates (or more) that would be it. That would mean somehow it isn't recognizing the packages you have. If that's the case, then remove those three packages (10.0.1, 10.0.2, 10.0.3) from the folder and restart. Try downloading...
