My father owns one of the original G5s, so its power pc not intel. Today while browsing an excel spreadsheet he says part of the screen turned black, then the monitor shut off, then the monitor came back on but not video. Mean while the fans started spinning out of control. Now when he tries to...

My father is having an issue with Time Machine. He has two HDs both 153 gig. He uses the second HD solely to backup the first HD. When he uses Time Machine it tells him it has 164 gig to backup, and can't do it since the HD is only 153 gig. Well if the HD only holds 153 gig, how can Time Machine...

Last night my house lost power. Now when I boot the G5 after it is done loading with the grey screen and the grey apple, it switches over to an all blue screen. After about 5 minutes I get a pointer, but that is it. I thought something bad had happened to my drives so I took some HDs from the G4...

I have one of the original G5 dual CPU models. Today it has started shutting off after random amounts of time. Almost as if it had a sudden loss of power, like you pulled out the plug. I checked the CPUs and they are running at about 135F so I don't think it is overheating. What else could the...

Ok I have an old beige G3 laying around the house, and I want to make use of it. I don't want it on my network, so I can just throw a crossover cable between them and mount a shared folder right?

I bought a brand new dvd rw drive, and put it in my PC. Worked fine. Then my PC died, so I thought I'd just put it into my G4. It powers on, the tray opens, but when I put in a DVD, nothing happens. My external dvd drive works fine however. I'm not sure of where to begin troubleshooting. Any...

I can read all the messages in my inbox. I can delete messages. Except for the two new e-mails I got. After I click on them mail crashes. One is from Talbots, and the other is junk e-mail.

I want to actually download the files, and I know how to do this with firefox on the PC, but I can't seem to find where to go in safari to tell it to not play files in the browser.

So I'm sending this poster around the world, and I need to e-mail people to tell them the poster is on the way there. So I want a script that will automatically send a pre-composed e-mail to the next person on the e-mail list. I'm thinking they'd go to a site and check off a box that they sent...

So set up mac os x for php apache and mysql. I have a php file I want to view in the browser. So for a URL I go to where the file is at http://127.0.0.1/~stevenbenjamin/tos.php, but I get a white screen and this error:Error: One or more unknown errors have occured. If this message persists...

I basically had my HD crap out on me after I updated to 10.4.4, but I was able to repair it enough not to still be able to use it, but to be able to load OS X on it and then be able to use it. But is there anyway to recover the data that was on the drive?

I was awoken this morning by a call from my Father. He installed the new update and rebooted, and now the HD doesn't work. All we get is a question mark when we boot, and when we try to repair it we are told the drive is "beyond repair" I don't know if the data is still on it, but I don't know...

I don't know what program I need. What I want to do is design the layout for the inside of a house, like a blueprint or a floor plan. But then I want to go in a 3D mode to be able to look around. Any suggestions on what program I should be looking at?

I've built PCs but I've never had to replace the hardware on my mac (thanks to good quality parts) and I want to pimp out my G4 tower. I'm interested in purchasing some cool blue or red LCD fans for it, but I was wondering if I can just walk into a Comp USA and find a..let's say a fan for an ATX...
