Please, I need some help with the following: I've moved my iMac. When I went to start it up after moving it it wouldn't start. It would hang on a blue screen and just sit there. I tried using all the little tricks in the book that came with it to try and get it going, all to no avail. So...

I had a problem with small black spots developing on the surface of my McBook Pro. The area affected was mostly below the keyboard and on the left and right of the trackpad (where my palms are resting). At first I thought it's just dirt but soon realized it's not reparable and must be caused by...

My MacBook Pro 17" shuts down with the battery indicator in the menu bar showing 46% - 48% (This number seems to be fairly consistent, tried it 5 times). I can only get it to restart by plugging the AC power adapter in. It does not go into sleep mode, but shuts down completely and abrupt without...

Not sure why I can't find this shortcut... surly it must exist: Selecting multiple files in a list. Windows shortcut is: ctrl-alt-shift +click example: selecting multiple files in iTunes. I know I can hold command and click each file, but if its a long list there must be a faster way to...

I am having this strange "color change" happening after the screen saver has been activated. I move the mouse to close the screen saver and the grayish color scheme (graphite) has changed to a light blue. I then have to go into the control panel and click on display to get the graphite back. No...

Had this weired COMMAND-TAB problem yesterday. After a short lunch break, returning to my MB Pro I noticed the application switcher (not sure if that's what its called, the command-tab feature, you get a display of all running applications, and as you continue hitting Tab, you can choose which...

My satellite setup. Only way to get online, make phone calls and work from home... it's broadband up to 1.5MB, could be worse. For many years I thought I will never be able to connect from home until finally a few years ago Xplornet provided sat. service for rural B.C. :)

My home office... really remote, internet access via "Wild Blue" Linksys satellite. Can't get much better in terms of office location ;-)
