I can't seem to find instructions on the Apple Support site on how to remove the keyboard from a 12" Powerbook. Can someone here explain to me how to remove it? One of the keys is sticky, so I'm hoping that I can just pop off that key and clean it. And I guess I should ask what the safest...

At my work, we have mostly Mac's (10.2) and a couple of PC's, and 2 printers. They've worked fine up until this morning. We noticed that on ALL of the Mac's, the printers were somehow removed from our Printer Center list. I was able to add back 1 of the printers, but the other one won't add or...

I can't seem to find instructions on the proper way of making a copy of a CD (using the utility, Disk Copy). With most burning programs you can make an "disk image" - ISO file, then when you burn the ISO, it extracts it. A good way to make sure all your files (and hidden files) are not lost...

I'm thinking about ordering the 1.25ghz Powerbook, but I want to wait until they start to ship them with 10.3 installed, or at least include the software. Do you think they will? or will I just have to purchase it @ $20? I'm a Mac newbie, so upgrading OS software makes me nervous!

Will a 512mb PC2700 ram work on a Powermac G4 Dual 867mhz machine? Recommended is PC2100. But on PC's you can use faster ram on a slower machine, and not vice versa. Does that work with Macs as well? I'd like to use slightly faster 512 ram if I could. Thanks
