    Difficulty installing iTunes 4.5

    Could that affect an iTunes installation without affecting any other installation? Using the GUI-based software update, the installation goes past the password phase fine and only crashes later when the installaer is "examining the package". Thanks again, Cheryl! John

    Difficulty installing iTunes 4.5

    I repaired permissions on the drive, eventhough it did not give me an error on permissions. I did that using my own account, with has admin privileges, but not using a default admin login. Curiously, no other installer/updater has had this problem and the permissions were fine on the iTunes...

    Difficulty installing iTunes 4.5

    Hi folks! I have had some trouble installing iTunes 4.5. Originally, I was using OS X 10.2.8, and when I tried doing the update from SoftwareUpdate, the iTunes installation would always just crash without any error messages. All other installations via the software update have been fine. I...

    Help Please: CD Burner (iTunes) Freezes

    Hi Folks: I am hoping to tap this expertise before resorting to apple. I have a problem with my CD burner (or perhaps its iTunes that is the problem). When I try to burn an audio CD, iTunes completely freezes after the 2nd track (fairly consistently), and never resumes. The little burn...

    Network update in software update

    Have you checked your memory? Up until I replaced the 512MB memory stick in my iBook, I had problems waking it up from sleep consistently. I had lots of reboots. The problem was pinpointed to the memory stick, the stick was replaced, and now I have yet to have a single sleep/wake/restart...

    Photo touch-up software

    Hi folks: Can anyone some photo-touch-up alternatives to Adobe Photoshop. I just want to be able to do some basic touch up and color balancing on simple photos taken with a point-and-shoot camera, before I send them to a service to be printed. I have seen GIMP, but I prefer not to install...

    iBook 600 and OS X.1/X.2

    I would try playing with an iBook with OS X on it just to get a feel for how it differs from your current experience (your G4). We are using subjective measures of speed here, so its hard to tell what BBenve thinks is "very fast" translates to on your speed scale. You also don't mention what...

    Mac OS X's "Jaguar"

    I hope its free, but I would be willing to pay perhaps $20 - $40 for an upgrade. I can't justify paying full price for this update, given the features set it is supposed to have.

    retropsect and wireless backup clients

    I also have a problem backing up to an FTP site over my 802.11b connection. I emailed their tech support about it, and they referred me to a a website that provided me with no insight into the problem. I need to run nightly backups of some critical files, and i find it utterly frustrating...

    iBook Sleep Problem SOLVED!

    At long last, I have managed to solve the sleeping problem that has plagued by notebook. My iBook would intermittently fail to return from sleep after it had been in sleep for a while (perhaps greater than an hour). This is a problem that apparently many people have faced, and there have...

    AirPort and 802.11g

    Well, "Get[ting] real" is precisely why I ask the question. I have read one article that suggested that a firmware upgrade might elevate a b access point to g, and i'm quite skeptical. However, hasn't there been an example of something similar in the past? I vaguely recall purchasing a...

    AirPort and 802.11g

    I have been reading some articles about the emerging 802.11g standard. One thing that still isn't clear to me, though, is whether we can expect that access points based on the 802.11b standard will be upgradeabe (via firmware) to the new g standard. If I purchase an AirPort base station now...

    iPod freezes, cannot do anything!

    I just had a problem yesterday where my iPod simply died. Nothing on screen, no response to anything. After getting of the line with Apple tech support (and realizing that I had passed the miniscule 90-day warranty by a couple of weeks), I found that my iPod decided to turn itself back on...
