Here's an interesting problem. I've got *some* DVD and CD backups that I've made on a PowerBook G4 and an iBook G4. They work fine on the laptops, however when I pop the discs into my intel mac mini the disc comes up as blank and I am prompted to tell the computer what I want to do with it...

Morning fellow members. This morning i powered up my powerbook and the finder appears to not be loading. I get the blue backgroung and the cursor but no icons, dock, menu, etc. i ran diskwarrior 3.0.2 and 33 % of files are out of order. Dwarrior says it cannot fix. Any ideas? Is it worth...

Greetings fellow macos users ;-) (long time no see!) I have a friend of mine who recently bought an iBook G3 (the ones right after the clamshell version - pearl white exterior). The iBook was without airport so she bought a separate card. I pulled the keyboard up, installed the card, but I do...

Weird thing: I come back from work on Friday, with an iPod that is fully charged. I unplug my iTrip, I put the hold on, and I put my iPod away. I was about to go for my Sunday walk this morning and the iPod does not turn on. This has happened many times. I just need to plug it in and recharge...

I have a mac mini at work, with tiger, intel processor, DL superdrive. If I get DL discs and burn them on my mac mini can I read that data on my powerbook? (superdrive, doesn't burn DL though) I know - silly question to which I should know the answer already....

Wow! Haven't seen this one in a very very long time! I put my computer to sleep, put it in my computer bag, came to work, it did not come out of sleep. So I kept the power button pressed to shut it down, turned it back on and it keeps flashing the folder with the "?" 1. I zapped the PRAM...

Hi All! After taking some time off to detox I am back ;-) My new employer bought me a mac mini for work, to have right next to my ugly dell. I decided it would be a good idea to have a KVM switch to switch between the two. This particular KVM (Tripp-lite, model B034-002-R) switches input by...

Hi all! I am looking around for a PCMCIA TV Tuner for my powerbook (not necessarily looking to buy one right this second - but keeping my options open). I was excited to see formac's PCMCIA tuner....but it is DVB-T (a standard which is not used in North America) Rant: Damn it! They F*ed up...

I finally decided to get with the times, and try iTMS. For now I am a leecher and just download the free samplers. I am however interested in buying some Japanese tunes form iTMS Germany - one problem though - When I tried to purchase it told me my ID was only valid in another store (the US one)...

I've been given some content encoded with on2 VP7. The dum-dums that want me to view (and comment) on the content point me to on2's website for a free download of the codec which is windows only! Does anyone know of a way to view these files on my mac? I'd hate to go into work on a day that...

I diskwarriored my powerbook yesterday. Since I've been having problems with my dear old friend, Kernal Panic, when I boot up from the diskwarrior CD, I booted up my powerbook in target disk mode and used my girlfriend's iBook as the computer to run disk warrior. Now I am experiecing...

hi All! I cannot seem to find a resume wizard in Office 04. I found 3 resume templates on microsoft.com/mac. Anyone have any idea where to get more (free) templates and/or a resume wizard ? TIA Admiral

I have a PHP page that I would like to try out. Up to now I haven't been playing with PHP, so I am a complete newbie :cool: Is there a way to get personal web sharing to do PHP pages? I've seen PHP extensions for Apache 2 on versiontracker.com - would this work if I installed it? what version...

So my VCR kicked the bucket last week, I have no VHS tapes that I care to keep so I was using the VCR to record my favorite shows while I was in class. I was looking around on amazon and I see DVRs for more than $400 (the ones that I really took a liking to anyway). I was toying with the idea of...

I have created filemaker databases on my own - but I have never worked with FMP server. I have inherited a database at my current job and FMP server 6. I've been told by some people that I can get some pretty nifty reports with it. specifically I am looking for the following: How many times...

I know all of us *nix geeks like to brag about uptime compared to our windows counterparts. My panther machine (450Mhz G4) and my TiBook (1.25Ghz G4) have uptimes of 40+ days but I am noticing slow downs as time goes by and my machine stays on without any reboots. Applications take longer to...

Back to having .Mac sync problems. It is REALLY driving me nuts! I have not been able to sync my local iDisk with the server. It connects, claims that it is done syncing - but when I go to my website (through my and other computers) the files are not there :confused: Now...on my work...
