    os9 drive permissions

    I have two partitions: one OS9 drive and one OSX drive. Everything is separate, and I use the os9 drive's system for classic under X. There are two issues. 1) I need an easy, automated way of giving every file on the os9 drive permissions that allow me (admin) to read/write them using osx...

    Ignore privleges...

    There's definitely some kind of flaw with that feature. I have two partitions, one is 9.1, other is 10.04. I ignored privileges on 9 and when launching Quark (and other apps) in classic, got messages saying that I didn't have permission to do things. The apps wouldn't complete launching...

    I just installed -- any ideas on how to optimize?

    You may have noticed that when you first use speech (after any new startup/login), you get some HD access. My guess is that speech is not loaded until it is used. If thats the case, don't worry about it, just don't use it.

    help with fink, please.

    I'm far from an expert but I believe its a project designed to help bring non-OSX unix programs to OSX easily. Once installed, it has automated procedures for installing other unix programs. There's a website out there that explains it. Sorry, don't have the URL handy.

    Problem with NSImageView

    Sorry, I have no idea what the problem is. I too have a problem with NSImageView. Cocoa is nice enough to let a user drag and drop an image on the NSImageView while the app is running, but I can't figure out how to make a record of where the image came from (ie, the path). I want a user to be...

    Brand New! Just kidding. It was new in 1994. My first mac. Its been in my closet since I bought one of the first beige G3s. I really have no idea what one of these would be worth nowadays, or why anyone would want one but if you're interested, nelsonj@mac.com. Specs (as far as I can...

    Filesharing with Windows?

    I contacted the author of Sharity about the .DStore files and was told that there was nothing he could do about it--its just the way CIFS works. I should also point out that there is a new preview version of Dave available for OSX from Thursby. It seems to work nicely, and a full version will...

    How to make desktop pictures with os x ??

    Just wanted to point out that 10.1 should have the return of cmd-shft-3 to take a screenshot. Oh how I have missed it.
