    StuffIt InstallerMaker problems

    I have the standard "entry-level" iMac (15" LCD), G4-700/128MB with OS X 10.1.2/OS9.2. The vendor claims that the Memory Stick readers I'm trying to get the drivers for are in fact working in OS X. When downloading the drivers, I have the choice of Windows drivers or "iMac/G3"-drivers. I...

    StuffIt InstallerMaker problems

    I'm sure it tries to open in StuffIt 6.0.1 (supplied with OS X), because I had a crash when trying to install InstallerMaker to convert the .sit. The installation core dumped and the only solution was to power off. After that, the iMac wouldn't even boot. After the restore I haven't installed...

    StuffIt InstallerMaker problems

    I'm trying to get my USB MemoryStick reader working with Mac OS X and iPhoto. The reader works 'out of the box' in OS 9, but a driver is required in OS X (10.1.2). On the manufacturers website I found an OS X driver: http://www.datafab.com/driver/usb203mac.sit It is an InstallerMaker 6.5...

    iMac CD operation slow, DMA not enabled?

    The machine is only 4 days old, and the burning/reading is as fast as one can expect (16x I think). The problem is that doing anything else with the machine while it is burning is virtually impossible. A Unix system should be a lot more responsive during disk operations. I have seen similar...

    Strange keymapping for curly braces

    That explains a lot. Yes, I am using a non-english keyboard. However it is the first time I have seen keys rearranged like this. Is it possible to reconfigure the keymap system-wide? Alternatively I will have to find some software that will allow me to assign a curly-brace hotkey to my...

    Strange keymapping for curly braces

    Finally I found the curly braces. Phew! Shift-Alt-8 for { and Shift-Alt-9 for }. Surely there must be some easier way to write code on a Mac? Btw; I@m a part-time-switch not completely agreeing with where all the special keys are located (e.g why do I get an @ instead of a ´ or `? :)

    iMac CD operation slow, DMA not enabled?

    When using the CD-Rom on my iMac (burning CDs or copying files to the harddrive) there is a massive lack of response. Starting/closing apps does not work, and the dock often freezes ´scaled´mode. iTunes may even start to stutter when copying MP3 files from CD to harddrive. This is a low-end...

    The world's worst error message.

    Say what? We got our iMac flatpanel for christmas, and by the evening on the 25th we had had to (re)install 3 times. Installing StuffIt InstallerMaker crashed, and core dumped on us (terminal text with program counters and stuff was written all over the screen on top of the graphics). After...

    Why iTunes kicks ass

    I wouldn´t say Microsoft is stupid (because they don´t let you encode MP3, they may very well be stupid because of something else). They try their best to get the world to encode everything to .wma. They won´t let you make mpegs either. Real Media and Quicktime are just as bad. Who made MP3...
