Due to some sort of corruption I was unable to download. I login as another and the d/l is fine. However my MAIl application does not work. How do I get it to work. Must I reinstall from the OS X.1(?) CD? I am running X.3.5 on my G4. Also is there a way I can transfer things such as...

Am using OS X.3.5 and for about a week I am having trouble downloading. Get a message that says (after I click a download button) something such as ‘page cannot be opened ..........plugin cannot be found’. Have contacted my DSL service and my DSL lines are clean. They block nothing. I am...

Recently I reinstalled OS X.2.8. I am having trouble activating the interactive spelling checker in Spell Catcher X. I am following instructions on installation. Since Cassidy & Greene is no longer in business, I can get no help from them via support or user groups. After doing the...

Why does my G4's flat panel display (OS X.2.6) seem to go to sleep when it wants to? The 'screen effect' is set to activate at 30 minutes. The computer is set 'to go to sleep' in about the same time. What gives?

I have an item which cannot be trashed. It is locked. When I unlock it -- the damn thing losks up again. When I try to move it out of the trash, it just duplicates itself in the trash -- there are 14 frickin' of these items now in the trash and I can't get rid of them. The HD is not...

For a few days now my G4 (733MG, X.26) has been shutting itself off after a few minutes. There are times when nothing happens when I press the start button on the front of the computer or the flat panel. One time yesterday when trying to start, there was a humming sound which lasted a few...

Go to your preferences in the MAIL application, and EDIT your account. SBC/YAHOO DSL had given me a string for my OUTGOING MAIL SERVER. It never worked. I would get some sort of authentication error. I called many times asking for help but SBC did not know there was an email application...

Which of APPLE's OS X Firewall ports should be enabled. I am using a DSL modem/inernal router?

Are the DSL modems that have a built-in router reliable. SBC is charging 149 - a $99 rebate = $50.

Are there any pros/cons about Earthlink's DSL service? Any recommendations for DSL in the Sf bay area?

Why are (we) MAC (OS X) users so non-concerned about having true internet protection? All I hear and read about is getting the best software firewall. Having a DSL connection where you are always connected, how can people sleep at night without a hardware firewall? I would really like to know...
