MDLarson, There's nothing stopping you from pulling a drive out of an external enclosure and hooking it up through another method. You'll probably find that most USB/Firewire external CD burners are simply IDE Burners (as in a standard internal CD burner) put inside a case with an IDE-USB or...

As far as I can tell, the Bluetooth code in 10.2 is pretty much complete. The only issue I know of is that Addressbook won't automatically reconnect to a Bluetooth phone if it moves out of and back into range, but the Mac will autosense the paired Bluetooth device for other purposes (like...

Unfortunately 10.2 breaks CD-R/RW compatibility with drives connected via external SCSI interfaces. I have a Yamaha 6416 CD-RW connected via an Adaptec SCSI card, and this has also stopped being recognised as a burner under 10.2 - although I can still use it as a CD-ROM drive. I think you...

alexachucarro, Although not actually supported by Apple in 10.1.x (ie there's no simple button to do it), you CAN setup a software basestation network using OS X. I have such a setup at home - an iMac DV and Titanium G4 with airport cards, no base station - ADSL connected to the iMac and...

scope, using the unix configurations for IP routing, something should be possible whereby you could take advantage of both connections to maximise bandwidth. I don't think it's straight forward to combine both connections and get 1Mbit/s from a single IP address source, but it should be...

Yes, Fetch's drag & drop abilities have changed under 10.0.3. If you drag and drop onto the status areas (ie not the file area), you will be able to drag and drop to upload files. Dragging onto the file window area will no longer work. Seems bizarre, but I see the same thing here too...

g'day, I'm not sure what version of X you are running, but I've got an apple 17" studio display (the pre-ADC CRT version) attached to my (original 400Mhz) TiBook. Using the button to show all resolutions (ie turning off the recommended resolutions) I can only drive that monitor at the...

You know that multiple button support DOES exist under X, at least for 2 buttons. I had a couple of clients who kept complaining that their keyboards were sticking (the control key was staying stuck down, as every time they clicked something the contextual menu would appear). It turned out...

alexachucarro, the (albeit undocumented) solution to your problem is to first create a project using the PAL standard. iMovie creates projects by default as NTSC unless a PAL DV camera is connected when the movie is created. In case you don't have a DV camera handy at all times, I create...

Jason, I don't actually use my Ti for web serving - most of my web dev work is ColdFusion based, so it needs to be run on a Linux or Win2K box, which means that I don't host anything locally. Seeing as everything works perfectly over the LAN, but not PPPoE, I'd put my money on being...

Jason, How are you connected to the network with the other users who are trying to reach the webserver on your TiBook? Via the PPPoE, or a normal LAN setup? If it is via the PPPoE, you might try changing the MTU value to another byte lower (ie 1484) - some other users overseas have had...

Jason, By startup, I'm guessing you mean running the script every time you connect to the internet, which is what you need to do. I suppose there are 3 possible ways this could be done: 1. If your PPPoE is set to connect when you first login, you could set the script as a Login item so...

Aussie John, The terminal is the OS X way of getting to the UNIX system that runs underneath the pretty aqua stuff. The terminal application is found in Applications/Utilities/Terminal A caveat with all this - the terminal is a pretty good way to do low-level stuff, but also a pretty good...

Bebox, I'm still working on the permanant solution at the moment, but in the mean time here's a slightly more elegant way of doing things: 1. use vi/emacs in the terminal, or your normal text editor (eg BBEdit) to create a document called 'fixmypppoe.scp' (or similar - the .scp is the...

Bebox, There is a solution (a manual pain in the ass one, but you can at least use the net). - you will need to have enabled Root user using Netinfo to do this Connect via PPPoE as per normal, then open a terminal window and type: sudo ifconfig ppp0 mtu 1492 type your password, then...

Bebox, Interesting that you are listed as coming from Australia - bet you're using Telstra BigPond ADSL, right?? I have the exact same problem since upgrading to 10.1, on both a TiBook and an iMac DV. Both worked perfectly in 10.0.4, but have exactly the same problems as you're...
