    Frequent program crashes in Safari, Mail & Others

    Thanks, I'll try the new user account idea! Yes, I've repaired permissions, tons of times. And FWIW These aren't program freezes - they've been flat out crashes - BAM - gone.... and then a following crash report. It's very odd because this is my second machine in 6 months and I went from 400...

    Has ANYONE ever got the WDTV Live Streaming box to work with OSX?

    That's very useful for a box that doesn't work! :-)

    Has ANYONE ever got the WDTV Live Streaming box to work with OSX?

    I've been going crazy trying to figure this out - but there's now help anywhere to be found - especially not on the WDTV site(s) - they are ALL PC people. I'm sharing my iTunes, sharing a folder containing media, and also have a Seagate Dockstar (Pogoplug) sharing a network media drive on LAN...

    Hard drive - external - how hot is too hot?

    Thanks - I wasn't sure - at first, right after streaming video and transcoding at the same time, it was marginal. Once the video was over for a while it settled down to a more reasonable temp with less read/write load.

    Hard drive - external - how hot is too hot?

    I just bought a (second) Hitachi Deskstar 2TB 7200 RPM drive and it's sitting in a dock while I'm writing transcoded Video_TS to H.264 files to it from Handbrake. It's very hot to touch right now - even in open air in the dock. Not scalding hot - but it would be close to a burn if one were...

    Yes, but what can that do? I can't seem to find any app associated with Developer Tools.

    EXIF editing *not* in terminal?

    Anyone know of any app that allows the editing of EXIF camera data (ALL of it)? Even if I have to do it one file at a time.... I want to change the CAMERA MAKE & MODEL info. Why? Bigots who turn their nose up at anything not made by one particular brand regardless of how stunning the...

    Getting analog video into my iMac G5 inexpensively

    Does ANYONE make a simple A to D video converter with USB or Firewire out that I can use to play A/V into my iMac for capture in iMovie, iDVD or other software? There are a few ancient boxes out there like the Dazzle Hollywood Bridge, Canopus ADVC-100, Formac Studio, some others... Just...

    Copying a DVD

    I had also since found a doc here - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=42724 Although the instructions are a little wrong as far as the names of some things, I was able to parse out what was needed for the current new OS disk utility. That did the trick. From what I have read...

    Copying a DVD

    Hello, and thanks in advance for your thoughts on this. I'm new to OSX but a long time Mac user...even would have considered myself above average techie until I got OSX which I find as obtuse as Windows. I've never burned a DVD before, but in O/S 10.4.5 new out of the box it seems no where...

    Opening docs with OS 9 apps automatically

    Thanks Eric! Silly me I never even thought of that, but did just trash the MS Office Trial Version and restarted...once I did that, all Office 98 docs appeared with their vintage '98 icons and when clicked on they automatically start up Classic and their respective apps! Brilliant! Exactly...

    Opening docs with OS 9 apps automatically

    in the pre-OS X days, one could count on being able to open a Microsoft Word doc from a Mac (or a PC for that matter) just by clicking on it. Now however, my new iMac G5 with OS X 10.4.5, it automatically wants to open in "Microsoft Office 2004, Trial Edition", which is horrible. I already...

    When we aren't out in the warm sun we come inside and work, play and live Macs!
