    Problem with Safari 4

    I opened up Spaces and found the Safari window, but I cannot get it to appear on the desktop. I have since disabled Spaces but still no Safari window. Is there a way to get it to show up on the desktop? The Safari Toolbar does show up on the desktop, but no browser window.

    Problem with Safari 4

    In the past couple of days I cannot open any windows in Safari. When I start the program up, I get the toolbar only. Nothing I do lets me open up a window. I even have to force quit the application sometimes to get it to close. I have reinstalled the program, removed the preferences, run Disk...

    Apple TV question

    Forgot to mention that I have a WDTV HD Media player that, for the price, does a great job with all the video formats of the files that I have. It does have a few limitations, however, and I thought that the ATV would have been a better unit for me to use. Thanks for the quick reply.

    Apple TV question

    I notice that there is an USB port on the rear of the ATV. Does this mean that I can connect an USB drive to the ATV and play content from the drive? If not, what is the purpose of the input?

    Connecting 2 monitors to a 2.0 GHZ G5

    Thanks for the help, guys. My friend (who is not Mac savvy) depends on me to help him out. I introduced him to the Mac about a year ago and he is as happy as can be about the switch. Again, my thanks.

    Windows XP on New Mac Mini

    Yes, that is correct. And I finally got it to work under VMWare. Everything is working fine, now.

    Windows XP on New Mac Mini

    Thanks for the reply. However, I saw on other forums where some people have had success with OEM (System Builder versions) discs while others have not.

    Windows XP on New Mac Mini

    I just bought a new Mac Mini and am trying to install Windows XP (OEM Version) on it via Bootcamp and VMWare Fusion. Both programs tell me that they cannot find an install disc. I borrowed a copy of Win XP from a buddy of mine and the same thing happened. These are not original discs but copies...

    Kernel Panic

    Thanks for your help. I dragged the Users folder and Applications folder from the external drive and I am up and running, although I have to re-install some applications. One application that would not copy was TechToolPro. I have the disc, however, and have to install it. This excercise has...

    Kernel Panic

    After being advised by the Apple tech at CompUSA that my HDD in my Dual 2.0GHZ PowerMac was failing, I replaced the stock 160GB HDD with a Seagate 300GB HDD. I got the machine to boot up, but in the process of transferring my files from an external FW HDD with my old system, I seem to have...

    Replacement Internal Drive

    My son overnighted a Seagate SATA drive to me last night. I am going to install it today. Yesterday the internal drive in the G5 went completely dead.

    Replacement Internal Drive

    My G5 is a 2004 model. AppleCare is not available in my state (Florida), so there is no way Apple is going to replace it. I bought it as a refurb from Apple in 2004 with a 1 year warranty.

    Replacement Internal Drive

    Thanks for the suggestions, all. I am looking at an Hitachi 250GB 7200RPM 8mb buffer for $119 and a Seagate Barracuda 250GB 7200GPM 16mg buffer for $116, both from MacSales.com. So far, the Seagate seems to be the better buy.

    Replacement Internal Drive

    It seems as if my original internal drive is going (as suggested by an Apple Tech). For a little over 2 weeks, I have been having problems booting up, and after an erase and repartition, the problem seems to be appearing again. I boot and run from an external drive without any problems, it being...

    Mac software to print on CDs / CD cover?

    In my opinion, the best program for doing this is Discus. It has many templates and prints seamlessly to either labels or printable discs. I use this exclusively. Hope this helps.
