billbaloney your the best! I did have to run disk utilities to repair the disk but after that it popped right. THANK YOU.

I'd like to change the disk permission for 1 drive from terminal. As admin I would think there would be a way. Currently in terminal this is what comes up. total 8 drwxr-xr-x 9 Morgan Morgan 408 Aug 17 21:30 Bob drwxr-xr-x 49 Morgan Morgan 1768 Aug 19 08:18 George drwxrwxr-t...

I ended up booting from the 10.4 install disc and all drives showed up. I had a drive that wasn't too full so I recovered 1 drive to another and reinitialized and renamed the disk, on reboot the initialized drive showed up. To me this doesn't seem like a very good way to retore permissions. I...

As the admin is there a way to reset the drive priviledges from the terminal?

I tried the terminal command and it only returned my local drive. I then shut down and disconnected from power with no luck. This has to be a priviledge issue, but the drives should show up somewhere.

Let's try this again. Before I left for vacation I set my 3 external USB drive permissions to "No Access" and unmounted the drives, I also set up a guest account for anyone to access the computer while I was away. After I returned I could not access the drives (logged in as admin) or see the...

To my best knowledge no. I did let someone login as a guest but he had no admin privileges. I was wondering if its just the finder prefs, it does see the drives in Disk Utilities also I used TechTools and it had no problem seeing the drives.

A strange thing happened last week, I unmounted my 3 usb external drives (I was going on vacation and just didn't want people to snoop around) and when I came back I couldn't remount these drives. The drives show up in Disk Utilities and I can verify or repair them but it shows no icons and 0...

I agree with RacerX its Helvetica fractions unload it!

Sometimes if its not too big you can open it up in textedit and the app or program it belongs to will be in the top few lines.

insight_rw, if would like I've made a little Automator app that will allow you to select the files in the Finder add a .indd extention and place it on a folder called "Converted" on your desktop. Just create the Converted folder on your desktop and select the files to convert. This may not work...

"DOHHHHHH!!!" thanks, that worked great!

shinefire, if there is no size or description the font is corrupt. Normally if its good Suitcase or Font book will have no problem opening them...they of course do need the suitcase and outlines to work properly. If they are PC fonts they should have dot extentions such as .pbf or .pfm. and of...

I did check the ribbon and thought I might have damaged it on the reinstallation but that wasn't it. I ended up going through the whole box taking out everything connected such as drives and any new ram. After pulling everything out but the original drive and ram I started getting clean and fast...

I discovered my Kernel panic on startup was caused by bad ram, so I replaced the ram with new stuff but I must not have seated one correctly. Upon restart the 1.8 G5 bonged twice and the button on the front started blinking. I quickly shut down and reseated the ram, the G5 rebooted quickly with...

Running a 1.8 G5, 1gb ram and system 10.4.5. About a month ago I replaced my DVD drive with a Pioneer A10 superdrive which wasn't supported by 10.4 and patched it to work with iTunes, up to this point everything had been fine. Since then I cannot get a clean boot. I did remove the DVD drive but...
