Just to answer you questions, I made sure there were no duplicate fonts on any of the systems. So there was no font conflict happening between Goudy and some other version of Goudy. The problem seemed as if the font itself was the problem, but coming from the original CD-ROM eliminated the font...

After an exhaustive search I finally got my answer. I figured I'd save some poor sap the same search by posting my findings. It seems that OSX (and XP) have a Font database cache file that can become corrupt. Some symptoms include: - Wrong font being displayed in Mail.app and Safari.app...

In our creative department, we've been having font problems. So, being the instigator of large projects, I took on the responsibility to get everyone on ONE font set throughout the department. I have spent about 24 working hours sifting through the machines, eliminating redundant fonts and...

Yeah, Apple didn't "forget" to include the Beatles, they simply couldn't secure a deal. The Beatles music is missing a huge market in my opinion, I don't know why they are ignoring the online sale of music. They must be playing it cautious. Speaking as someone who has just about every...

It's funny you say that, and I'm not trying to speak to all Apple Store employees. But I had the opposite happen to me. I was in Chicago and I mistakenly grabbed the wrong iTrip (one for first generation iPods and I have a 3rd generation iPod). The employee who was ringing me up warned me...

Cool. I'll try that...

but again, if this email was imported, and the "encryption" is deciphered some of the time, then why is Mail.app doing this only some of the time? I used the word encryption, as that's what it looks like to me. It could very well be something else. I'm unclear why Mail.app won't read the...

I recently installed panther on all the machines in our design department. After the installation, I transferred all the OS9 settings / bookmarks / email that I could and was on my way. Apparently, after a fresh install, Mail.app has been acting up on everyone's machine. The problems started...

The next occurrence of a personal attack by ANYONE in this thread will cause me to get that estranged look in my eye, and no doubtably provoke my skin to turn green and my muscles to expand to 10 times their normal size, ruining yet another shirt of mine. Please, for the sake of my sanity and...

Yup phpBB is a great one. And it's free and easy to set up. I use it for my personal forum (inter-office).

I'm moving an entire department from OS9 to OSX (Panther). SO far everything is going grand. One 'problem' that the designers are having is that they are constantly getting disconnected from the shared server (Win 2000). I'm on the same network, but only seem to experience these disconnects...

Apple has tried this before, it was a flop then, I don't see it happening any differently now.

jeffrito, actually pink has become a 'man's color' this year. I just read an article in my local paper how the merchants are now stocking pink neckties, etc because of the demand. The shop owner said at first he resisted the ordering of pink merchandise, for fear it was just a fad. Now he...

no worries eric... you can speak your mind here... Albeit a mac community which aggressively defends Apple, it's observations like yours that truly help with the development of the OS and it's components. If we all agreed that the OS was perfect, we wouldn't need to have this forum.

The other problem with scanning / testing files would be that you would have to develop a separate test for each extension. mp3's would mean your OS would have to be an mp3 player, for example. That's all fine and dandy, but would the OS then be automatically launching viruses when it...

How about more specifics as to the actual programs that aren't working.... For example is TextEdit working? Or do you mean just the iApps? Repair permissions for starters, because it sounds like some shared resources are not being accessed. You haven't moved / deleted anything recently...

I don't know... I think it's time that little mouse gets shown the door. ;)

bound to happen sooner or later... some person, probably reading a forum thread of people bragging how OSX is virus proof decided to create one just for us.

good point... and I seem to remember it having a preview on / off option. Problem is that it's not free... like Sherlock.
