I'm trying to compile a simple C program which relies on the libpcap library, except everytime I try to compile it i get the error: ld: Undefined symbols: _pcap_lookupdev Here is the C code: #include [pcap.h] #include [stdio.h] int main() { char *dev...

What is the difference between the two? Can a normal cocoa application still create a .plist file? Which of the two would be best to use for certain applications? Would it be fair to say that the features of a document-based application are just a superset of those of a normal application...

I plan to write some sort of network data tool in Cocoa which will let you know how much data you have downloaded/uploaded. I've decided to base it on the built in tool 'tcpdump'. The problem is that if the network transfer rate is too high tcpdump will end up dropping a majority of the...

I just installed the 5.0.4 update and now file transfers via wireless are dog slow, around 500 k/s as opposed to around 2.5 MB/s with 5.0.3. I want to reinstall 5.0.3 but can't find it *anywhere*, it's like it never existed. Is there anyone out there that still has it? Please? :(

I just noticed that if you have your desktop picture set to change every so often, there is no longer a "fading in and out" transition. It just changes from one to the other - BANG. I loved that Quartz fade in and out effect, why did Apple have to go and remove it?? :(

One of the few annoyances that comes from migrating from OS 9 to X is, I find, the lack of a startup scheduler with which you can control what time/day your Mac will automatically power on. Such a feature used to exist in the Energy control panel in OS 9 but for some odd reason hasn't found its...

I'm having some problems with my IRC user name, which I have specified in AthenaIRC, being overridden by my user name in OS X (the one that appears in the prompt when you open the Terminal). This poses a problem for me because I have a ChanOps account on IRC and I can't authenticate myself...

One thing that annoys me is that if I have told Software Update to do automatic checks it will constantly bug me about a new version of iTunes (which I don't want or need - I don't even have a previous version installed for it to update) every time it checks. I would like to have it make...
