After seeing apache now runs 56% of the internet and apple includes it in os X. I wondered what the apple site was running. Here is what I found from netcraft.com http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph?site=apple.com&submit=Examine OK it seems the site is running on the Solaris OS and is...

I've got the same problem now :) Your friends restarted and ethire held down apple-s or apple-f (what I did). Then, they probrobly didn't know what they were doing when they encountered the zsh shell and started typing english like commands I'm guessing the command reboot. I ran fsck -y...

I guess the software which I have used is iTunes and the finder in 10.1.4. I dont really want to install this software if it is possible because I am only borrowing the drive. I have also not tried toast titanium because I have heard reports that it stops iTunes from burning properly if...

I am having trouble burning anything using a borrowed iomega zip 650 CD-RW. The device and the cds work on his computer. He owns a mac and uses the burner under 9.0. I have seen other posts which say people have used the burner under 10.1.4. After plugging the device directly into my...

I have been waiting forever for Epson to come out with a program so I can scan in OS X. Today I am still waiting and wondering where this program is. According to their "Mac OS X Information (October 31, 2001)" they claim "Drivers are being developed" however it seems they aren't in much of a...

When I create web pages, I usually use a WYSISWYG program but simply for getting a rough idea of what the page is going to look like. Exa. I type and format the text, roughly size some frames. After this it's hard code all the way with BBedit. I add the meta tags, CSS, SSI, and make the code...

Well, let's see, I am currently learning the Collage Boards version of Computer Science 1. The current curriculum is C++. As such, I would recommend the Student edition of Code Warrior as this programming environment seems to be what the Collage board want and it works better than M$ visual...

I tried the fsck -y however my hard drive was spiffy to begin with. It would have been great if that was my only problem. Unfortuanately, in the end I decided to reformat my hard drive and delete M$ word as well. In the end, everything is back to normal! Except for my root password. This...

When I say I am back to where I started, I mean't the classic environment is not working as well as a few other applications. Sorry for the lack of info in my last post. I found another new problem too. It appears Stuffit Expander is having troubles writing files to the desktop. When I used...

I tried re-installing os 10.0 again and then updated for now to 10.1 I also deleted the users and created new ones In the end, I'm at where I started agian. I am also getting a new error when I use the terminal. It just pops up every now and being a inexperienced unix user, I have no idea...

I just used the chmod command and things seemed to work aok however I was not able to fix the classic startup issue. After a quick decision to reinstall mac os x to correct these permissions, I learned the installation did NOTHING! now I can't use itunes, classic applications or save files to...

Funny you should include a image of LimeWire along with the messed up folder. I heard there was a virus floating around on the Gnutella network however I believe it only messed with windows....

Almost forgot, For all of you who love ASCII images and stuff, type banner cool into the terminal, then replace cool with another word. The power of UNIX... Now to learn the other 100 commands!

Being curious, I was rumaging around through my System folder and opening up stuff using BBedit (Dont be stupid like me, I know I have something coming) and low and behold, I found a cool ASCII image courtesy of apple. I found it in the holy CoreServices folder in a file called BootX. Hmm...

Thanks testuser, that got me a little farther however now when I try to run sudo I get the message sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0664, should be 0440 and of coarse I'm stuck again. What should I do now? My dad was the person responsible for changing all the permissions. He logged on as root...

After a total system crash due to an attempted switch back to mac OS 9.2.2 to scan something (points to another member in family and notes the program can be run through classic mode) , I had to install Mac OS 10.0, then update back to 10.1 and then finally to 10.1.2. bla... The next thing I...

I know someone with a newton (2000 version) who claims aol will no longer allow him to connect to check his mail. Is this really the case or did one of his settings get modified? And, if aol really did drop the support of this fine PDA, does anyone know of a service that does support the...

Every now and then I hear about apple coming out with another newton called the iPad however I have not been able to find out if it's actually going to appear in public or if it's just a rumor. Has anyone else heard about it? It would be really cool if apple began making PDA's and for that...

I just got 10.1 and think Apple did a great job with the DVD program. What's even more amazing is I am a person who <i>could</i> benefit from the iMac/G4 DVD Settlement so my dvd is not supposed to work well :rolleyes:. (Even though the case seems bogus to me) My ONLY problem with the new...

If they plug you for XP try asking them if XP runs on the Macintosh. Trust me, you'll get a good laugh.
