I have a Panasonic HDTV screen, however, it doesn't have a VGA input. Only RCA (the three cables) and S-video. Is there any way I could connect my Macbook (not the latest generation, the one with a 950 integrated graphics card) to it? Thank you in advance!!

I got a new harddrive and restored my whole Mac OS X installation from a Time Machine backup. Everything works fine, but Mail starts spinning the beach ball after I start it up and has to be force-quitted. I tried deleting the "Envelope Index" and having it rebuild the database again. It seems...

Is there a way of using Cover Flow in full-screen with Finder? It would be kind of nice to use it to browser through pictures. And it also is the only situation when I actually think cover flow could be useful. Thank you.

Hey folks, I have installed Leopard yesterday and got everything to work pretty well. The last thing that's left is time machine. I have an external harddrive with some extra movies and music I dont need on my internal macbook drive. Both drives are the same size (120gb). If I'm not...

I am a switcher from Windows, and I cannot figure out how to use Mac OS X to preview pictures in a folder. In Win, I used Fax & Picture Viewer to simply open a picture and then when I hit an arrow it would move on to the next picture. I know Preview can do this if I select all the pictures in a...

My Office 2004 worked great for about a month. Since yesterday, when I open a new Word window, it opens a little bit smaller than full screen, which is annoying because when I want to grab the scrollbar I click just outside the window and Word loses focus, because the window doesn't go all the...

Hi Everyone! I was wondering what some of the steps would be to make my Office 2004 as compatible with 2003 as possible. I am a college student and I am having a lots of trouble with sending my documents (doc, xls, ppt, pps) to my professors and these showing up all messed up on their PC's...
