    apple store in seattle

    I remember hearing rumors when the first stores were being built that Seattle and/or Bellevue would get a store at some point. With Apple expanding to open 175 stores by the end of 2003 I suspect that Seattle will get one within the next year or so (I no inside info however). With respect to...

    Installed Mac OS 10.1.3 and now no mouse

    Don't know if this is related or not but after I installed 10.1.3 everything on one of my two USB ports (conected to a Dr Bott hub, keyboard, mouse and iSub) stopped working one day after waking from sleep. Plugged the keyboard/mouse into the other port and it worked fine. I rebooted and...

    Right-Click and Scroll

    OSX supports multiple-button mice and there are plenty of decent ones out there so why not buy one? For me the one button mouse works fine so I see little reason to change it. On the other hand I wouldn't mind if Apple designed a nice optional multi-button mouse, it's just not a priority for me.

    Office X-Change Registration #?

    I suspect the registration key is contained in one of the files in Library->Preferences->Microsoft but I am not 100% sure and I don't feel like deleting the directory to find out. Worth a shot if you feel brave.

    Where can I learn to make OS X apps?

    I suggest picking up a copy of "Cocoa programming for Mac OS X" by Aaron Hillegass (www.bignerdranch.com which also has a great guide/notes section for the book). I'm working my way though it now and it's a great book. If you have any C programming experience you should find using Cocoa pretty...

    Mail App Not actually deleting emails

    I noticed that too so I started transferring filtered mail to Deleted Messages instead of checking "Delete this message" and that solved the problem.

    Clock.app unexpectedly quits on login

    I hate to follow up on my own post but there's really nobody on this board that can help me debug this problem? Any ideas where I can go to get help? (I've already tried MacFixit with no luck) Thanks!

    Clock.app unexpectedly quits on login

    I have an odd problem on my iMac DV-SE 500. My login and logout times are fairly long (on the order of 20-30 seconds) and whenver I log in the Clock.app (which is set to launch in the background on login) unexpectedly quits. If I then manually relaunch the clock it works fine. The console log...

    Lock Omniweb as the default browser?

    The problem has not re-occurred since I made OmniWeb the default application for all .html files so I guess that was it. Wonderful, if I never see the bouncing "e" ever again I'll be happy!

    Lock Omniweb as the default browser?

    I've done that, of course but the setting won't stick. If you install a new copy of OmniWeb, click on an IE link, logout or just sneeze the setting reverts to IE. I don't want it to ever revert, I want OmniWeb forever!

    apple buy omniweb?

    I am sure Apple could afford Omni if they decided they wanted to purchase them. According to their own web site (http://www.omnigroup.com/company/people/) they have something like 18 people (including their two chefs) and I doubt that they ever have more than a few of those working on OmniWeb...

    Lock Omniweb as the default browser?

    Seems ever since I installed 10.1 all I have to do is look at my Mac funny and it resets the default browser to Internet Explorer. I'm looking for a way to lock Omniweb as the default web browser even if I install a new copy or do whatever is causing it to reset. I know I could play tricks...

    Epson Printer Drivers

    Well Epson may suck with old printers but I was shocked to see that not only did my new Epson Stylus Photo 820 contain OSX printer drivers on the install disk but it also included a nice separate 12-page OSX manual. Works great too and only $99 after rebate, wow!

    iphoto great but I can't use it

    I think you can solve the problem by making a symbolic link from your Pictures/iPhoto Library directory to the shared directory, however this could result in a potential permissions problem and would not solve the double-name problem unless you were willing to live with the cryptic iPhoto names...

    Fire.app problems

    There are two places you need to delete items if you really want to reinstall everything for Fire and not keep your old settings. First you can go to your ~Library directory (under your home directory) and delete the "Fire" folder. Secondly run PrefEdit (in Applications/Utilities) and delete...

    Jaguar - Mac OS X 10.2

    >>Or instead of logging into your computer via terminal (text based), it would be pretty sweet to log in and be presented with your desktop in a window (maybe rendered at half size or as full screen).<< NeXTStep had this feature, called "nxhost". I suspect it would not be that difficult to...

    OmniWeb 4.1sp6

    Looks like there was a bug in some mozilla JavaScript code Omni incorporated in sp6 which caused frequent crashes. It was fixed in sneakypeek seven, which is now available. Unfortunately the cool pumpkin icon is gone but it seems to work well.

    DVD player features in OS 10.1

    My one complaint with the new DVD player is that it doesn't adjust the brightness when running in full-screen mode like the OS9 version does. Thus the picture appears a little "muddy" and the black bars at the top and bottom of the image appear grey rather than jet-black like in OS9. Am I the...
