Please bear with me. I'm new to server stuff. I've been trying to install Apache2 on an Intel machine running 10.4.11. There are many references to a version of Apache2 located at serverlogistics.com, but the links are dead, and their current downloads section doesn't appear to feature...

I'm connected to a LAN via a Netgear hub, and each computer on the network has a static IP. As of the past week, I've been unable to access one particular computer via AFP. When I double-click its icon in Network:My Network, it brings up a dialog for FTP access to that machine. It fails even if...

I'm going to be setting up a dedicated server on a LAN soon. It's only going to be accessed by a handful of computers, all of which will be controlled by the client. Based on cost and complexity of other options, we've decided on a normal Mini, rather than a Mini Server or an Xserve. The one...

I have a LaunchAgent (~/Library/LaunchAgents) with WatchPaths set to monitor about a dozen files. I've updated the format to work with Leopard (e.g. using KeepAlive instead of OnDemand). I can load it either through Lingon or launchctl, but on reboot it's no longer loaded. Mac Pro, Leopard

I'm troubleshooting an iMac G5, Tiger 10.4.11. The first problem was a -50 error, which prompted me to repair via Disk Utility (which failed), and finally to replace the catalog via DiskWarrior (which succeeded). After another boot crash, and two instances of reinstalling the system, these are...

I was using iTunes 8.x under Mac OS 10.4.11 to download an album from the iTunes Store, when it delivered an error message like this one for the majority of the tracks (but not all of them; some downloaded successfully): There was a problem downloading “Keep an Open Mind or Else / That's All...

I'm finally selling my Color Classic on eBay.

Anyone else experiencing the spontaneous loss of all JavaScript functionality using Safari? The functionality returns after relaunching the program, but seems to occur randomly. I get errors on some sites that a script is making Safari slow, and it gives me the option to stop the script -- this...

After some period of normal operation, I'll notice launching applications -- either by double-clicking a document, icon in Dock, or by using QuickSilver -- will not bring them to the front automatically any longer. The problem stops after restart. Anyone experience this? G5 Dual 1.8GHz...

I've been an iCab user for about five years now, and I'm used to web archives working. Even when the saved page includes a link to some file that I can't load, I can usually just stop the loading process to see what I do have stored in the archive. The format is great, too. It's ZIP. What...

I recently removed USB Overdrive and xGestures from my G5 (10.4.10) and now I can no longer get the Exposé Preferences to recognize button 3 (wheel) and button 6 on my Logitech Click! mouse. I've tried trashing System and Finder preferences, emptying caches, disabling login items, etc. I wasn't...

I have System 7 disk image files downloaded from Apple's site, a G5 running Tiger, a LaCie USB floppy drive, and a G3 (broken internal floppy drive) running Mac OS 9. I tried running Disk Copy on the G3 and using the Make a Floppy... command, but, even though the floppy in the USB-based...

What the hidden Dock does now: Jumps out from hiding at the slightest provocation. Sometimes I'm not aiming for the Dock when I mouse towards the edge of the screen -- maybe it's a scroll bar, or a tool palette I want. The Dock is like punishment for imprecise mousing. Here's what I'd like...

...I could add it before, but now I can't. I searched the forum for a solution, but to be clear, this is definitely not a FAT32 formatted drive; it's an HFS+ partition on an internal SATA drive. I'll explain the setup further. PM G5 Dual 1.8GHz, Mac OS X 10.4.6 I have identical Maxtor...

Move Selected Files to a New Folder using Automator and AppleScript. Launch Automator, select "Automator" from the Library sidebar, then double-click "Run AppleScript" from the Action sidebar. Select all in the script field and paste: on run {input, parameters} set the_folder to...

Hi all, just thought I'd introduce myself. My name's Mike, I live in L.A. My experience with the Mac starts with a 512K and MacPaint in '91, on through a G3 in '98, and I currently use a G5. I have some experience troubleshooting, and using apps related to graphics, web, publishing and...

I came from OS 8 and 9, so maybe this is more obvious to some than it is to me. Since I've been having so many problems on my G5, I've tried to reinstall the system. However, since I've applied updates to Tiger since the first install, it won't let me reinstall from the disc. Whaddya do?

Hi all, new poster here. I'll get right down to what's worrying me. I have a PM G5, less than a year old, running 10.4.5. Plenty of RAM and HD space. As a result of my problems, I've gone through the general routines of trashing prefs, repairing permissions, running fsck; and even 3rd party...
