Last time I saw this kind of comportement, it was the memory. If you have several memory elements (sorry, I don't know the english word for this), try to start your computer with only one. If it still crashes, try another one. Better : ask a friend to lend you his memory. This kind of...

hi simon1663. You can launch programs via a remote console connection : you must be connected with the same login on the console and the GUI. Else, the program can't access the display. Once connected, just type "open the/path/to/the/app" If the app is a package (superSoft.app), just...

Apple's refurbish service is not only for old macs. In fact, I'm mostly interested in recent hardware, that have been presentation hardware or things like that. I don't think I'll use shrevesystems's services since I live in france : shrevesystems don't seem to have a french department, whereas...

Hello everybody ! I plan to buy a portable mac soon. But this costs a lot !!! Hopefully, Apple has just open a new service to sold refurbished mac, really cheaper. Has someone buy a mac this way ? Are you happy with your choice ? Apple says there may be aesthetic imperfections, are they...

maybe you should play chess more often with it :-)

In the unix world, there is a funny app called fortune that prints a different "philosophical" string each time you launch it. Here are some example of what it can print : - Which is worse: ignorance or apathy? Who knows? Who cares? - "Every morning, I get up and look through the 'Forbes'...

devonferns : no, it isn't microsoft, it is just deeply included into mac OS X ... Last time, a friend deleted quick time files (to revert manualy to QT 5 after installing QT6 beta), the computer was unable to display a window. He had to reinstall the OS ..... the difference with windows is...

It is a bit more complex : I want to get a sound, and then process it ... so, I get to get the samples directly out of the audio card ...

Hello I would like to make an application that talk to the sound card to get samples from the microphone. I know it is possible under OS 9, but I can't find anything to do this on os X ... I've looked on apple's website, but they mainly talk about drivers. Does someone know how to do this...

You may be a windoz guy to think it would be better to limite the quality :D. Seriously, the sound can be undistinguishable, but it does not mean it has the same quality. If you are going to manipulate this sound track, you will loose quality at each step of your manipulation (for example...

fryke : The open source part of OS X is old, that's true (base on FreeBSD). But most problems concern the interface : nobody complain about the multitask, or about the memory handling. Speed, logout with applications open ... all that are on the not opens source part, and this one is not as old...

Remember Mac OS X is a quite young OS compared to Win XP : Win XP is based on win NT5 (= 2000), that is itself based on NT4 (service pack 6 ...). Remember what NT4 was in its early hours ... Let Mac OS X get older, I'm sure you won't be disappointed. It is really a great base.

One bas thing with the application switching is that is don't care about azerty/querty keyboards :-(((. As a frensh user, I never use it, because I always forget I must hit the A key to close the selected app. Therefor, I prefere the dock's contextual menu. I realy hope this will be...

Personaly, I use BBEdit lite. It does not color syntax, but it is a good solution I think. Otherwise, JaneBUILDER for PHP 1.5.2 is describe as a visual PHP editor on Versiontracker.com. I 've never tried it, maybe you should ... Hope this help ...

Hello I have set my os x box to mount 3 shares from an NFS server. It works great, and preformances a far higher than with appleTalk. But since I don't log on the server, but on my local machine, I can't have the owner's privilege ... Is there a way to force mac os x to send a specific...

QT 6 can export movies to .mp4 with aac soundtrack. I have'nt tried to encode only a soundtrack.I'll try as soon as I go back home. The quality of mp4 videos is indeed realy good, and the samples of aac sound on apple's website are impressive too ... I'm waiting for a mp4 videoconference, so...

I tried to play an avi divx with QT6, it seems better than QT5 for me : with QT 5, i almost had no sound at all. With QT 6, the sound just skip regularly. I think apple is working on this issue. Maybe it will be good for the final release ? let's hope ...

Personaly, I encode all my MP3s en VBR, 160kbps min. With this setting, I cannot hear any difference with an audio CD. No matter the place it take on my HD, I want good quality music. The cross-fade is always off, because it tends to cut the end of some songs, and the sound enchancer is off...

YES, I'm saved ! The problem was just that when I copy my home folder, type and creators were lost, and Eudora look at it to be sure the file is a mailbox. Eudora is getting more and more integrated to mac os X (it is a .app now), but its file still don't use extensions. Thank you for...
