Every day! Every hour! All the time! I can't figure this out! I start up OSX all fine and dandy. Then... I'll launch internet explorer or any other web browser. Browse for a few minutes and then for no apparent reason it won't connect to anything. I can't get a new page to load, it...

I have an iMac 333mhz. I'm looking for a USB Hard Drive that is both compatible with this machine and OSX (which I'm currently running on it). Is there anything available on the market that will work for me under $100? Do I need specific updates or drivers? Any information would be appreciated...

Here's the situtation. I can't seem to get computer to remember the window scroll bar position when I go back and forth between either OS browser windows, Web Browser windows, or any window for that matter. i.e. - I navigate to www.yahoo.com. I then scroll down to the middle of the page...

Where do I buy the graphite keys used on the G4 Powerbook to replace the white keys on my ibook?

ALL OF YOU! That's right, SHOVE IT! You know damn well OSX is slow but you just don't want to admit it because you are still waging your Mac vs. PC war. I hate PC's. They are ugly and confusing to me...TO ME! That's reason enough...FOR ME! I love Mac's, but this 10.1 OS is Freakin' SLOW. I have...

How do uninstall Quicktime Streaming Server? I have OSX 10.1 and it's constantly using 80% or more of my CPU speed. How do I get the damn thing off of here. I tried running the installer package to see if it had an "uninstall" option, but it wouldn't let me run it because it said it was "Missing...

It's still slower than Molass-ASS. That's like saying you have a really nice car, spit polished and everything but there is NO ENGINE IN IT! C'mon 10.1 was a LONG way to go. Sure it's stable, sure it's this, sure it's that, but one thing it ISN'T is fast. In the computer world (and the real...

The finder window resizing may be a bit faster, but it still lags....slows incredably when launching apps...and has no speed at all when actually using an app (especially web browsers). If anything this is probably the first place people "feel" the increased speed. Hope it gets better. I'm sure...

I was tooling around Comp USA today and I noticed how people have picked the keys off the G4 Powerbook and the new Dual USB iBook. So not wanting to be left out I plucked a charcoal grey key off of the G4 Powerbook and place it on the snowy white surface of the Dual USB iBook. It seemed to fix...

I'm thinking about purchasing an iBook (Dual USB)...the new one. But I'm concerned that it will not run OSX very well. Can someone give me some input/feedback on this? I can't afford a G4 Powerbook so I'd have to go with the iBook. What about this whole 66mhz system bus thing? What other things...

I just got my hands on Mac OSX 10.1 PUMA 5F26 (Macworld Preview) and it totally Sucks! Don't even bother installing this crap! Wait until Apple releases the actual 10.1 update in September. Hopefully it will be better. Why did it suck for me: 1. System preferences locked up every single...

Up until this point in time I have never felt the need to backup considering I have never lost a single thing on my Mac since my first Mac years ago. But today under OSX was different... I booted all was well. I then noticed an alias file to my USERS folder. Thinking it was much like...

I notice that I when I "get info" on certain folders (sites, music, movies, pictures, & public) in OSX they have strange members attributes. The privilege options say members of group "Wheel" and/or memebers of group "Staff". What and/or who are "Wheel" and "Staff"? How do i change...

This is the message i get when I try to connect to a server via FTP with Transmit 1.6 for OSX. "The server reportted an ILLEGAl PORT COMMAND" What does this mean and how do i fix it?

I'm having even more problems now. See if you can figure out what's causing this. I boot OSX everthing seems to work fine, but then all of a sudden (and everytime I use my computer I might add) my mouse freezes on the screen and I loose control of it and then the hard drive starts crunching...

Lightning fast answer would be nice! Why does my IP address shows up as 000.000.000.000 when I run such programs as Netbadge or Carracho or Hotline Server apps. Why doesn't it show my correct IP? Anybody know how to fix this? Funny thing is all the questions I have ever posted in this...

Mine keep going back to small icons instead of the VERY LARGE icons that I set in "Global View"

I'm using "Netbadge" the handy little menubar IP address app, but my IP address shows up as 000.000.000.000 Why doesn't it show my correct IP? Also does the same thing with Carracho or Hotline Server apps. Anybody know how to fix this?

THANKS TO STANLEY IN THE MACFIXIT FORUMS. HIS POST READ: I beg your pardon but..... After taking a bit to look at the PPPoe thing in OS X I was able to make my connection work. My original mistake was putting the ISP name into the "Service Provider" space. This space should remain blank...
