    OS X Won't connect to server

    What os is the server? Win2k, 2003?. If it is try stopping and starting the Apple services first, go to run, type services.msc, browse down to apple services, stop them all, then restart them. then try to logon again. You could reboot the server, this has the same effect. Good luck

    Adobe CS2 Indesign Installer Hang Up on MAC Mini

    Your Mini Mac is a "intel" based chipset, from what I understand is that CS2 will not run on it. Adobe is building a CS3 to run on Intel macs. So for now, looks like you may have to stick with your old mac for CS2
