I've only just noticed that I don't seem to be able to scroll a background window by using the mouse scroll button, now that I've upgraded to 10.2.4. I'm sure this was a feature that existed with 10.2.3. I actually noticed it first when Safari arrived. In fact, Safari is a bit picky about how...

It seems that I am the victim of a never ending saga of external Firewire hard drive failures. I'm running a PowerBook G3 Pismo/2000 - have 10.2.3 and 9.2.2 installed on two separate partitions on the internal 30GB IBM Travelstar HD. Things on that end work extremely well, now that I replaced...

Just wondering if the latest ATI driver updater file can be used to update the ATI Rage Mobility (8MB VRAM) in my PowerBook Pismo (aka 2000/Firewire). I've downloaded the file (filename= radeon-0210.sit) and read the Readme file but it doesn't list my model graphics card. I've read how other...

DON'T THROW AWAY THAT LEGACY PRINTER JUST YET... Did you upgrade to OS X and find out that Epson weren't going to support your legacy printer with the new OS? Think you were going to have to fork out more money on a new printer? That's exactly the bind I found myself. And I've been searching...

OFFICE vX PROBLEM (posted again as it will be lost in the other thread) I have noticed a problem with Office vX (Service Release 1 installed). It began 2 days before I upgraded to Jaguar, but still persists even after the upgrade. For some reason, Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Entourage all...

Does anyone know if you can expand the video capabilities of a PowerBook G3 (Pismo/Firewire)? I would assume that you would have to do it by way of the PC-card port. My PB has the standard AGP ATI Rage Mobility with 8MB of VRAM and I would like to expand my video to 32MB to take advantage of...

I'm trying to log-on to my online banking account with IE 5.1.4 using OS X 10.1.4. Everytime I do this I get a blank browser screen and a message on the bottom of the browser window that reads "Start: applet not initiated". I tried the same with Netscape 6.2.3 and the same occurred. I've...

Well, my name is Zeal and it's been 3 months since I last feed one into my EX. Kinda hard talking about it because the EX and I have been together for a couple of years and she's always been pretty reliable. Well, until I fed her some cheap stuff, and she got all clogged up - wouldn't speak to...

Can't seem to delete 2 unwanted Users. I deleted them via the Users panel, but all that that has appeared to do is change the name of the User's folder by putting "Deleted" after the Username (i.e. "Xmen" has now become "Xmen Deleted"). Regards Zeal :confused:

Here's my problem: PowerBook G3 400mHz (FireWire/Pismo/00) - 384Ram - 6GB HD - stock standard otherwise) I've got OSX 10.1.4 and 9.2.2 installed on my 6GB hard drive - you might have seen elsewhere on this forum that I'm replacing the HDD as soon as I get some buying advice from you all...

I'm about to dash out and upgrade the 6GB HDD in my PB G3 400mHz (FireWire), but aren't sure what brand HDD I should replace it with. My current HDD has ended up with bad block/sectors, or something like that. It's the 3rd HDD I've had in it since I bought it brand new - the other 2 drives were...

I'm running OS X 10.1.4 and am using IE 5.1.4. Is there any way to deactivate drop-down menu fading feature that occurs after you select something from a drop-down menu? It wastes a good two seconds or so when you select something on a drop-down menu and it fades out. This is probably because...

Started getting "graunching" noises from my FW external HD yesterday. Sounds like "graunch-graunch - space - graunch-graunch - larger space" repeating. I rebooted in Classic and ran Norton Utilities (6.0.3). It took some time to check the media on the 40GB drive and got two-thirds of the way...

Is anyone else experiencing the drastic drain of battery life under OS X 10.1.3? I'm running a PB 400 Mhz Pismo with 6GB IBM HD, 384MB Ram, stock standard DVD drive. This completely wrecks my chances of watching DVD's while on planes, waiting at airports, travelling in cars etc, things that I...

I keep on having serious problems with OS X 10.1.2 installed on my PowerBook G3 (Pismo) 384MB Ram - 6GB HD. It starts with: when I have started up in OS 9.2.2 it shows the system folders in the Startup Disk control panel as being 10.1.2 and 9.2.2. However, when I startup in X it shows OS 9...

I've just installed OS X - upgraded now to 10.1.2 on a partition on my external FW hard drive. I'm running 9.2.2 on my Powerbook internal hard drive. I've been using a Dynalink router to connect to my ISP using PPPoA. My router does have a PPPoE option but I've got no idea what any of these...
