Does anyone know of a way to Copy / Paste an entry from a web page? I use Google Checkout and I want to ad new customers without retyping them. I can highlight the whole address, copy it, drag it.... but find no way of adding it to address book in ANY sort of automated fashion. Ideas?

I recently had to purchase a new 17" Macbook Pro Core 2 Duo to replace a Macbook Pro Core Duo that had a cracked screen in an emergency. I had previously upgraded the older Core Duo with a 200GB 7200 RPM drive. To get up and running quickly, I just did a hard drive swap. (it turns out the hd...

I have done a search, but have not turned up what I am looking for. I simply am planning a hard drive upgrade in my MBP, and do not want to go thru all the boot camp partition and xp load again. Is there a way to clone the partition easily, so that when I repartition my new drive (keeping the...

Just pick up your trusty Dremel tool and put one of the sanding barrel/discs on it. Headphone jacks (most all of them) have a ton of extra material on them. Just sand back about 1/8 of the material and you don't need any stinking, ugly, extra thing to carry, adapter. I modified my Bose QC2...

I am running 10.4.9 on a Macbook Pro. I have been trying to press the NEW button in the Sharing/Firewall settings, but it does not do anything. I can edit previous firewall settings, but can not add a new one. I have already deleted the preferences file and started from another volume and...

I have a MAC network with a G4 Powerbook, a G5 tower, and a newer Macbook Pro. I have been able to share files fine since the start of time between the G4 and G5. However, the MBP has trouble WRITTING to either of the older macs. I am administrator, and am using administrator login and password...

Has anyone found a way to down sample, down convert, whatever you want to call it an entire iTunes library like iTunes will do with the Shuffle? I have over 80GB of music and growing by the week. Once I start Riping my obscure vinyl it will get even bigger. I am looking for a way to down sample...

I have a dual 2.5 and about a month ago it started writting to the hard drive every 5 - 8 seconds. I went to activity monitor and it will 'very briefly' show a process called 'Issave' running when it writes. It is so quick, that it does not show up in the activity window every time. I have...

On a Windoze heathen box: If select an entire folder (or entire drive or whatever) and copy it to a new place, and the SOME of the same files exist in the new location, it will ask me if I want to overwrite pre-existing files or not copy them etc. THEN it will give me a chec box that says APPLY...

OK, listen carefully, because I cannot be the only one with this problem. I have several macs, and they all connect to a REBYTE RAID via a network (NAT). This is basically a 1TB SAMBA share. All of my Music, Photos, Videos, etc is on the RAID. When I add new music to the NAT, I have to go around...

BASIC functionality of a PIM and Calendar program (ala Entourage, ACT!, etc) is the ability to schedule To-Do items for a particular day. HOWEVER, I wish NOT to see items that are due in the future. So of course I have the preference set to "Hide Todo Items with Due Dates Outside Calendar View"...

I have 10.4.3 software and I need to log ALL keystrokes typed. Does anyone know of any compatible key logging software?

I thought I would post this unusual problem and solution to get it out in the ETHER net. I have new house that the rocket scientist that built it put in ONE cat5 cable to each outlet in the house. This was for phone AND ethernet. No problem really, because 10/100 ethernet requires only 4 wires...

I have a 10.4.2 dual G5 that I recently converted to Tiger from Panther. Since the conversion, my bluetooth (a Dlink dongle) is slow to startup bluetooth services. I have to wait about 20-30 seconds when getting the login window to wait for my bluetooth keyboard and mouse to come online. If I...

I use the service eFax. The faxes I get come into my email as a single tiff file. This tiff file can have multiple pages. The old version (pre Tiger) of Preview would open and print these with no problem. Tiger's version of Preview will open them, but will not print them...won't even properly...

does anyone know how to stop OSX from disconnecting network drives after awakening from a sleep? The network is a wireless airport network, so it takes a second or two to reconnect, meanwhile it scans does not see the drives right away, and always disconnects them. Any way to set a delay before...

I used to use a program called "virtual Cover Creator" for windoze and am looking for a similar program from the mac. The software generates 3d software boxes, books etc for display on the internet. You can see an example at http://www.virtual-cover-creator.com Thanks in advance to any and all!

I purchased READI.R.I.S. from a local dealer nearly two weeks ago. I have had installation issues with the software. I have emailed ReadIRIS numerous times about it and received no response. To my dealers credit, since it was an open package, they allowed me to return it when I explained the...

I have not been able to get support from READIRIS. I installed ReadIris on my G5 and it installed ok. When I ran the software for the first time, it asked for a serial number. While I was digging for it, the software crashed. No biggie, I ran it again and this time it asks me to select four...

I have been plagued recently. First the 10.3.9 update crashed my powerbook, so I reformated with 10.3.5 and migrated my user from a 2.5Ghz Tower. Then I let the system update to 10.3.8. Now my problem is that iScroll2 installer starts then crashes right away AND the automatic update available...
