    ethernet hookup-File Sharing-"on" or "off"?

    I have my macpro work station hooked up to my old g-4 by ethernet cable. Should I have file sharing "on" so that what I do { create } on the macpro will show up on the g4 so I can use it there also ? Thanks A Bunch for listening to me! Dickster

    the application iphoto quit unexpectedly

    Just a thought to try--- open Time Machine and go back to a day when you know that iphoto was working okay- Select it and then drop down with cursor and key on RESTORE. If it can it will bring back iphoto completely. this may take a little time. Then try opening iphoto again...

That may have been how it - [keyboard & mouse pref pane] got removed from the system prefs. window. the time machine trick got it back and...
