I don't know if I've got the wrong feeling about this, but the new Mac Pro does not seem so impressive to me. According to Apple test results, the Mac Pro with the Quad Intel Xeon CPU running at 2,66 GHz performs 0,3 points better at the Cinebench test (just to give an example which is in my...

Hi there :p I configured iChat at home and tried it with other mac, and all of its features (except for webcam, since I do not own an iSight) worked fine. I got to work where I have to configure a HTTP proxy server to get Internet, hence I configure iChat to do so and the program connects...

Hello there. Does anyone know how to configure a USB WLAN Adaptor under OS X? (I believe these are standard). OS X does detect it and it appears under the Network preferences panel (under the weird name of "4 to 6"). However I've only got a couple of parameters and I can only fill one, which...

Hello again. Undoubtly I'm Mr. Doubt in person. Jokes apart. I own a .Mac account and I find the iDisk to be one of the most useful tools in the .Mac services bundle (although it is veeery slow due to technical reasons I don't remember or I don't want to explain). However, 100 MB is quite...

Does Yahoo! Messenger work with other webcams besides the highly expensive iSight? (please stick to Yahoo! Messenger, iChat doesn't cover my needs since it does not support HTTP proxies). Overmore, does Yahoo! Messenger accept virtually any webcam? Any advice?

I have an external drive with 2 partitions. I want one of them to be Mac OS (that is easy) but I want the other one to have PC format so my PC can read files in the drive. I must do this in my Mac - not in a PC. DiskUtilities won't allow me to make one MS-DOS partition (it lets me format the...

Hello. My kid is growing fast. May I have some advice for some good parental control software (easy to use, please!) for OS X?. Tnx! ::angel::

I'm looking for and easy-to-learn language, object oriented or half-object oriented but somehow linear (not THAT much object-oriented as RealBASIC, I like to have my list of code and total control). I've seen Omikron Basic, it looks fine but before entering in the "learning-curve" and paying...

Dear pals from Mac OS X forum. Just forget about BBedit, jEdit, WebEdit and/or Hyperedit. I'm looking for a general purpose editor, with built in colour coding for HTML/JSP/PHP etc (preferably configurable) - but most of all: with a project manager (even though simple, don't care), so I...

Hello. Airport Extreme card for my iBook G4 is quite expensive, and I will never really be on the need to have a 54 MBps connection. Many manufacturers provide USB stick-like 11 MBps 802.11 solutions. They do not mention Mac OS X compatibility. Anyhow, I've made many non-documented...

So it seems that Apple is going to unveil at WWDC the new "Tiger". On one side, it is very good seeing that Apple does not waste time developing its products. But on the other side, I feel quite deceived. I just bought a new computer with OS X Panther (which I like a lot), a few months ago...

Hello everybody. I hope somebody knows. If I import a movie (not from a DV device) let's say a MPEG4 movie using the Import menu option, iMovie won't automatically detect the scenes of the imported clip, neither can I find the option to do so manually. All I can do is split the clip in the...

Is it called data casting? Well, I think so. Let's say I have a String named x with value "myImage". I want to use this value as if it were a Picture object named myImage, to do for example things such as: MainWindow.Backdrop = x (but working, of course). I want to do this so I can...

Hi there. Once I was fooling around on the Scripts Folder, just checking what there was in there, and I clicked on a script called Script Menu, which loads a menu with scripts on the menu bar. Fine till then. I want to get rid of it and I find no way to do so. Neither rebooting, nor by...

Yes. I've got Mac OS X.2.whateverlastversionis... I recently bought IOmega Super DVD, which is a USB 2.0 external DVD burner which supports multiple format media (DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RAM). So far, the drive is properly detected by my G3 with USB 1.1 ports. I can view CDs and DVDs with no...

So here I go. I own an iBook G3 with just 8 MB VRAM. Computer's CPU and memory are fine, but this amount of VRAM is often quite a drawback for Mac OS X.2 aqua interface and for some games. Windows XP (sorry! I mentioned the word Windows, I hope no one gets offended :D ), well I say, Windows...
