    Replacement Scissor Clips (Type K)

    I had decided to do a little cleaning on my keyboard (Early 2013 MacBook Pro Retina) and broke a few of the scissor clips early in the process. Does anyone know of a place that sells just the scissor clips? I have found places that will provide the scissor clips when you buy a replacement key...

    Citrix Metaframe Access Issues

    I realize this may be a little late in coming, but here is a link I found on another post out here: http://www.silerfamily.net/~fms/projects/citrix.php This will walk you through the steps of finding the proper certificate (well, hopefully).

    VPN slows down regular internet access

    Piece o' cake! Here's a script I use to do just that: A few extra notes: [list=1] I am using a Linksys router to connect to my DSL modem. The LOCAL_GATEWAY is the IP address I've assigned to the router. If you don't use a router, just go to the Network Panel to get your IP (let me know if...

    Trying to find Claris Cad for OS X or something???

    Probably a late post on the subject, but if your dad was using a Claris program to do invoices, it was probably FileMaker (to which you can easily find the OS X upgrade). It's possible that he could have been using ClarisWorks, luckily, that has made the transition to OS X as AppleWorks.

    Workgrup Server 95

    Best offer (plus shipping, etc.). Currently, this is not booting at all, but the video card is still functional. This machine was (until recently) doing web hosting for an ISP in Atlanta. 48MB memory, no hard drives, floppy, & tape drive.

    MacRecorder

    Best offer (plus you cover shipping). OK, this one will probably be more sentimental than useful for anyone. In pre-audio in macs, this was a slick way to record stereo @ 22KHz. I used it all the time with my Mac SE.

    Personal LaserWriter LS

    Best offer (& you pay shipping). I was hoping to point you off to some apple documentation on this printer, but there is very little out there. I bought this printer around 1990, it is a 300dpi printer with a serial connection, & QuickDraw only (i.e., no PostScript in it). I used this until a...

    How do you properly backup and restore "Users" files and folders?

    I just did a re-install of OS X on my machine a couple weeks ago. Luckily, I have two internal drives & only two users on the machine. Here are the steps that I did to save the users from the terminal (note: "molson" is the name of my second hard drive): <ol> <li><code>cd /Users</code></li>...

    Connecting to SMB network drives

    How about creating an alias on your desktop for each of the drives you want automounted? That is Apples suggestion! ;)

    Updating to Mac OS X 10.1

    <p>Apple does not offer a 10.0.x to 10.1.x upgrade via the software update. When they originally released 10.1, you only had two options:</p><ol> <li>Buy 10.1 Full</li> <li>Buy 10.1 Upgrade from Apple (with obnoxious paper work to fill out)</li></ol><p>They mentioned that the 10.1 upgrade was...

    Cover page

    I have to jump into my way-back machine here a bit. Back in the olden days (System 6), it was pretty easy to set up a cover page to be printed. Simply go to the Standard LaserWriter driver and select a cover page to be printed (hopefully all the beer I consumed in college isn't fogging my memory...

    Cover page

    OK, so I feel fairly silly for asking such a simple question, but can anyone tell me how to have os x print out files with a cover page? Since I've snuck my iBook into my office, I'd like to make sure that the stuff I print out from it actually winds up on my desk as opposed to someone else's...

    FaxSTF 10.0?

    The bummer is that SmithMicro is charging for the OS X version of FAXSTF. It would be nice if Apple had made an arrangement with them to provide an update to Mac owners upgrading to OS X. The only thing I've found so far to fax with OS X is <a...

    Can unix commands be called from a C program?

    You can call a UNIX command from C using the 'system' function. However, the only thing the program you call can return to your program is a integer to indicate success or failure of the command. To read in a command from UNIX, you can use the popen function to call a program & read its...
