    Can't open files outside of Photoshop into the program

    Okay...not sure my title made much sense. Either way, here's my situation. Say I'm in Finder and have a PSD file (or JPG, or any file for that matter) that I'm wanting to open in Photoshop. I right-click to bring up my option menu and I choose to open it with Photoshop. Problem is, Photoshop...

    Can't boot to the desktop

    I accidently screwed up my startup disk option and when I restart I just get the little blue blinking globe. I've tried booting from my install CD by pressing "C" during startup as well as trying pressing "option" during startup and selecting the install disk. Both ways I end up getting a "You...

    Is there a way to make ANY window zoom expand to full?

    A while back when I converted from Windows to OS X something that bugged (and still bugs) the everliving crap out of me was that application windows won't take up the whole screen without me meticulously dragging the corners to the edges and with dual screens it's even more trouble to keep in...

    Can't move large (5GB+) files to firewire drive

    It's nothing I couldn't just move BACK to my desktop and then format the drive. How do reformat an external drive? (may be a dumb question...never done it though)

    Can't move large (5GB+) files to firewire drive

    Formatted as? What do you mean? And all the files are normal names.

    Can't move large (5GB+) files to firewire drive

    I'm trying to move large video files ranging from 5GB up to 30GB from my internal harddrive to my external firewire drive. But whenever I try to move them, once 4GB of any file has been transferred it gives me an error that says: The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in...

    How should I backup 100GB+ of data?

    I just got done with a video project and have over 100GB of footage, files, etc. Basically just wondering the best way to compress and store it for long term without having to burn like 20 DVD's.

    The Gates

    Well. I'm not sure what to make of this. I generally can appreciate any form of art but have mixed feelings about this. 7,500 "gates" all identical spread out across Central Park. The only reason I might could appreciate this is due to the shear size/number of these things...

    Assigning a signature to an email address?

    I've got 10+ e-mail addresses for various sites I run and atleast that many signatures to go along with them. Is there a way to automatically assign a certain signature to a certain e-mail address? So like I would pick email1@whatever.com and it would automatically assign the Signature Whatever...

    I think some people have their mind set on the fact that it's possible to have an ad free world when in actuality there's no way...life isn't free. I think macosx.com's use of what you call "ads" is the most un-intrusive way of advertising I've ever seen and you should be grateful and instead of...

    Actually yes, I went to the eye doctor last week. I've never thought of macosx.com as just a forum. I was first introduced to it as a "tech support" site that happend to have an active community.

    How many graphic designers?

    I've been doing both print and interactive design for about 5 years professionally. I'm hardcore about Adobe products (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) and if I had an A-bomb I send it towards Quark. Speciality would be in organic design with an emphasis on texture. I like to design stuff...

    What are you talking about? Commercial? They don't even have advertising minus that freeminimacs.com banner and I wouldn't even consider that "advertising."

    Will a US scanner work in the UK?

    I guess it would depend. My scanner is powered by the USB port it plugs in to.

    Why don't you make use of vB3's subscription system and let people pay a monthly/yearly fee to have extra features? Like $50 per year get's you a bigger avatar, a longer signature, one free tech support incident or something...i don't know. But I think that's a lot less annoying and a lot more...
