    OS X logged me out!

    I think that usually happens if the SystemUI process dies.. Not sure what the cause is, but I've had it happen randomly before.

    Removing menus

    You should be able to command-drag the menus out of the menubar and they should poof. If not, you may want to try restarting and trying again.

    Right now I only know English, but I hope to learn Spanish or some other language in the future. :D

    QuickSilver Processor Fan about to take off?

    Actually, I've determined it's the Hard Drive making noise now (although I think the fan has gotten a little louder too). So I pulled an all nighter backing everything up to Zip and CD-R and I'm going to have to take it to the Apple Store and get it replaced soon. Thank god I have an iBook to...

    Backup Mail?

    I'm having a lot of trouble with Mac OS X on my Power Mac 733 recently.. I've tried everything from Fsck -y to Disk First Aid and still have issues, some worse after the fsck (like my Icy Juice contact list files being deleted and keychains gone). Anyways, I want to back up all my Mailboxes...

    Encoding DVDs in MPEG4

    Well, since all the current DVD Players I've seen only encode in MPEG-2, I don't think it'd be very useful to make one MPEG-4... Maybe Apple can release the first MPEG-4 DVD Player...

    Sony camera/iphoto

    I'm actually playing with the family Sony Mavica MVC-FD83 right now... It uses floppy disks to store photos. What I do is pop the disk and mount it in OS X, then create a new folder on the desktop. Then I turn the disk view window into list mode and command-click each of the jpeg files that I...

    Mozilla and MacOSX.com cookies

    Under Preferences > Advanced - Scripts & Windows, make sure the bottom two cookie options (I believe read cookies and create and change cookies) are both enabled. Not sure if you tried that section or not, but they do seem to put the cookie options in two places.

    iBook Trouble

    Yes, the Sound Sticks do take up a lot of USB Bandwidth, but shouldn't frequently blow a USB port. You may want to take advantage of your AppleCare 90 day phone support and call up Apple Support and ask if it's a known issue or something you should have checked, just to be safe. Because it would...

    Silk, the newest Unsanity miracle

    I can see why Apple didn't include it with the update... Some apps aren't designed to be antialiased so they will provide a poor result in some cases (AIM, BBEdit, ...) so they really wanted to wait for developers to release an update patch that makes everything look right. And to answer...

    QuickSilver Processor Fan about to take off?

    Last night my QuickSilver started making a loud noise, (YES, they _can_ get louder!). Anyways, I opened the case while it was on and listened to see where it was coming from. It appears to be the processor fan that's attached to the heatsink. It's still spinning, just very noisily. Does anyone...

    iBook Trouble

    Well first are you running 9 or X? Also, have you tried restarting? USB (at least in my experience) can get "confused" and it takes a good reboot or two to set it straight again.

    What would you give...

    I'd give everything I own to see him put in prison (and we wouldn't have to worry about the fork, big bubba would surely take care of all "butt shoving") :eek: :p
