Is there a way to create custom power schemes in Energy Saver (i.e. an "Always On" setting for presentations)? I realize I can just move the slider so the computer doesn't sleep, but that is tedious. Also is there a way to change the interval before the screen dims? I can't find a way to do this...

I've been ignoring several hardware problems with my Aluminum PowerBook G4 for months, mostly because I need it for school and can't afford to send it away for a week and because most of the issues are cosmetic. But I have some vacation time coming up and I'm considering having Apple look into...

When I copy tables on a website to Microsoft Word under Tiger, the tables run off of the viewable page area, and when I try opening them on a Windows PC, I get an error saying the tables are corrupt. Additionally, when I paste tables into textedit and view them on a Windows machine, wordpad...

Through Jabber, which is supported under iChat 3.0, it is possible to login to many popular chat protocols that iChat did not traditionally support. Jabber supports accessing chat networks, such as MSN, Yahoo!, and ICQ, through entities called "gateways." iChat does not directly support...

I noticed this for the first time this morning. When I plug in my PowerBook's charger, I hear a constant hum from the power supply. It's not very loud, but it's audible from 6 feet away or so. The laptop still charges fine, and everything seems to be working properly, but I'm pretty sure this...

Ahh..... my PowerBook is only 1 month old and, through routine use, already the silver finish on the screen release button seems to be going. Take a look at this pic. Anyone else notice this on their PowerBook(s)? Not a huge issue, but come on Apple. I just spent $2,500 on a computer and a...

I'm trying to access my Windows PC, which has realVNC installed, from Apple Remote Desktop 2 which is installed on my Mac. When I go to File > Add By Address on the Mac and type the IP of the Windows machine and VNC password (there is no username), I get an error verifying it. When I try to...

In Windows, you can just hit tab until the checkbox is selected, and then you can hit space to check/uncheck it. After update 10.3.5, I've noticed that I can sometimes do this in finder windows, but never in Safari. It's really frustrating because when I fill out forms I find I save lots of time...

Is it possible to install the illuminated keyboard found on 15 and 17" models on a 12 inch and actually have the illumination work? I'm thinking that there's probably a light sensor that the 12-inch model lacks, preventing me from using one, but I want to be absolutely sure. I need to buy a new...

I just got a gmail account and, for convenience, I made a shortcut (a .webloc) to the login page in my dock. The trouble is, my default browser is OmniWeb, and gmail is not compatible with it. I want the shortcut to open in Safari, even though OmniWeb is the default browser. Does anyone know how...

I didn't see this posted anywhere else, so let me be the first to say that Mozilla has just released Firefox 0.9 for Windows, Linux, and OS X =) Lots of really nice new additions and changes to Extensions, Theming, and Download management. It's also much faster than previous releases were on...

Is it possible to make iTunes stay hidden or minimized when I open new media files? It's really annoying to have the entire program come up every time I open a new mp3. Thanks. H

Is it possible? And does anyone know an online vendor that sells the part? Thx. H

My iMac has begun freezing again. It seems to happen when I'm running multiple processes at once and cpu usage is high, however it sometimes happens when I'm running only one program and when I leave it idle. The OS freezes up, however I'm still able to move the cursor. I've tried command option...

I was booting into os 9 to use vpc and as it was booting, a folder with a flashing question mark in the center of the screen appeared... as if OS 9 cannot be found. Now that's all I get when I turn on the computer and I can't figure out how to boot back into OS X. I don't have AppleCare and...

Looks like a fix for the screen effects password vulnerability is now available from Software Update. Go download it =)

How do I change the default program for handling addresses on the ftp:// protocal? Currently, if I type an FTP address in Safari or click on an ftp link, Netscape 7.0 opens-- not what I want to happen. Thx.
