Repair permission changes nothing and it seems that certain applications are unable to write my library/preferences directories, which is causing some problems. The Owner of my Home folder is "unknown," with a lock next to unknown (but the "locked" box is NOT checked). What is going on with my...

I was unpleasantly suprised to come home and learn that my macosx.com web/email hosting account has been "acquired" by acunett. Now, I can no longer login to administer my domain (the link reported in the email is broken) and there are no details provided as to whether the pricing/service will...

contents of the remote user's home folder (who is also an administrative user). I'm trying to do this so I can use Chronosync.....both computers have the same hard drive name / user name - maybe that's the problem. This just seems very strange... Anyone please have a hint? Otherwise I can't...

I'm very interested in integrating Verisign's authentication tokens in OS X. Is there software available for OS X or OS X Server that can tie into keychain and login for authentication?

I took my G5 in for warranty service a while ago and I think they must have retained my invoice. So, I have no proof of purchase and am about to sell my desktop. I want to make sure the new purchaser can use the 42 days of warranty remaining and purchase applecare. Aside from creating my own...

I purchased a dual 2.0 G5 last July but I can't find the receipt and my applestore history doesn't reveal any history. Can anyone think of a way to find my original invoice online? I'm looking to sell my machine to get a new G5 using my ADC discount, but want to find the old invoice first...

I don't want to spend the money for adobe acrobat (it's ridiculous for just home use) but I want to scan in bills/etc. and archive them. I know OS X has built-in PDF functionality but I don't see how it creates them aside from the new Tiger print to PDF function. Ideally, I'd love to have an...

The error I get is "cannot open a secure connection with ........ server" And it happens to all secure pages. I've reset my browser, erased the cache, etc. I can't think of anything else - I've repaired permissions, everything. Anyone? It used to work fine but not anymore.

Well, Santa brought some nice presents... a second 17" lcd for my G5 Dual 2.0 and 1 gig of crucial ram. BUT, there were some problems.... First, installed the ram in bank two (in pairs). Crucial #CT6464Z40B dims...rebooted, no obvious problems. BUT, Image Capture wouldn't work and the system...

At my home I use my OS X desktop 99% of the time but have a couple of laptops running W2k as well on WIFI. I don't have OS X server but am seeking to achieve the following: 1) Sharing volumes/folders across the local network. 2) Some kind of LDAP/etc. solution for my address book on the PCs...

I went to newegg.com and got an ImageQuest (hyundai) L70S 17" monitor. no DVI input but the text is absolutely crisp, colors/brightness great, no dead pixels and the price was only about $250. You can't beat that. I'm going to get a second one for side-by-side display but am wondering if the...

I don't see any option to change this but I'm probably overlooking a checkbox somewhere ;)

Not currently a ADC member but saw this link today: http://developer.apple.com/macosx/tiger/tigerkit.html Seems like a good deal for $500. One question, though. The page says that a "GM versions of Mac OS X v10.4 and Xcode 2.0 when available" are included? GM? General Merchandise?

I can't believe apple can't make this option in their otherwise improved program. Are there any workarounds or alternative programs that anyone knows about? Now that I have this beautiful G5, it would be nice to do some multitasking.

I'm planning a little trip to the store but was wondering if they have the 20/23" displays yet. I hear they have the new ipods (?) so it could be a nice visit. I haven't really seen any reviews of the displays yet anywhere. If so, I'm planning on picking up a dual 2.0 G5 and a 20" display. I...

In short, I think it might turn out okay, but it has been quite a trip. I'll summarize as briefly as possible: - 1 yr old 12" G4 powerbook, light use, occasional transportation/85% as a desktop on an iCurve at home with external LCD/wireless keyboard - 3 months ago bottom left corner of LCD...

Well, I could just use a few sane opinions on this situation. My 12" g4 powerbook from a year ago will be back from applecare service soon with a new lcd, new casings/plastic - they fixed it all because I finally convinced them that I didn't drop it, which I didn't. So, it will basically be a...

Here's a strange inquiry... I've got an airport extreme base, latest firmware, but use it as a firewall only - don't need wifi right now. Thought it would be nice to cutdown on the RF in my home - why not - but there is no option in advanced setup to disable wifi entirely. I setup a closed...
