    IMAP Os x Quota's

    What company hosts your email? Those quota specs sound like defaults on our DreamHost accounts. Is there an admin site for your host where you can change the settings? You probably wouldn't be able to change them in Mail or even in a webmail site.

    Apple Wireless Keyboard (1G) Control key dead

    My first generation aluminum Apple Wireless Keyboard's Control key seems to have died. All other keys work fine. For the time being, I've swapped Control and Caps Lock, but the shortcuts for which I use Control are hard to key with Caps Lock, so I'm likely to replace this nearly three-year-old...

    Connect old EIDE drive to iMac?

    OWC's enclosures certainly aren't like the ones you describe, however I think the adapter will be the longer lasting choice, as you said.

    Connect old EIDE drive to iMac?

    Or you could by NewerTech's USB adapter for IDE and SATA hard disks and skip the enclosure altogether. This way, you wouldn't have to worry about having an extra IDE enclosure that you may never use again.

    Internal speakers working fine, headphone jack is dead. Help!

    With the audio out jack not appearing at all, I wonder if there's an internal cable loose. Do you have AppleCare? It's probably an easy in-warranty fix.

    Internal speakers working fine, headphone jack is dead. Help!

    If sound comes out of the internal speakers when headphones are connected, then perhaps sound preferences are not right. When plugged in, what output source is set?

    What is the best way to move files to folders on your computer?

    Sure, you can use spring-loaded folders in just the way you describe at first. Use your Exposé shortcut to show the desktop so you can pick up the file hidden by all the clutter of windows and again to return to the Finder window where you're dragging the file. Pick up more than one file if the...

    Leopard installation

    If that's the case, then I have no further argument for Leopard. Djackmac's suggestion to Restore seems the best choice.

    Leopard installation

    jbarley: did you not read that Brasseye's iBook has fully 1.5GB of memory?

    Leopard installation

    I disagree with jbarley. In my experience, Macs run faster on Leopard than Tiger. If ever you need to repair your system by starting from an install disc, your Tiger discs will be fine for the job.

    Leopard installation

    If you're not concerned about losing any data on your iBook, or you have it all backed up, you can connect the two Macs by FireWire, start up the PowerBook in target disk mode (hod T at startup), and use a utility like Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the PowerBook to the iBook. Since you probably...

    Cut and Paste

    Are you sure you were using the Command key and not the Control key? Command is the one that will always work for these shortcuts.

    UPS Thermal Printer with Leopard

    Alternatively, could you not preview the label from the print dialog and print from preview with the desired page size?

    Keyboard shortcut to access Dictionary

    bowjest already stated preference for the Services menu command instead of the popup.

    Keyboard shortcut to access Dictionary

    But bowjest explicitly said that using Lookup in Dictionary from the Services menu has worked and that trying to set a shortcut for that Service command was causing System Preferences to crash. That sounds like a preference corruption issue, not any relation to OmegaT.

    Keyboard shortcut to access Dictionary

    So, it sounds like we're back to troubleshooting System Preferences crashing when you try to edit the keyboard shortcut for Open in Dictionary. DeltaMac, do you know where shortcut preferences are actually stored? What file should bowjest try removing to make he pane work as desired?

    Keyboard shortcut to access Dictionary

    Try even just mousing over a word and pressing Control+Command+D.

    mobile me and multiple email accounts

    Are you sure there isn't a disclosure triangle next to your MobileMe inbox to reveal drafts, sent, and trash mailboxes? If they're there, you can select them and choose Mailbox > Use this mailbox for > and choose the type of mailbox. Then, each will appear in the proper place in the hierarchy...
