I was actually thinking about running my old image IN parallels, mounting the actual new boot camp partition as a volume and then copy stuff from the parallels image into boot camp. Possibly thinking about it (and having re-read the boot camp blurb [have never used boot camp]) I suspect its...

Well thats a super shame then. I was hoping to avoid some work. Now I guess I will have to enjoy that thrill of re-running all those hundreds of download patches to get Windows & Office up to something bordering on safe. Dang! Is this because the boot camp install process has to slather XP with...

Have you tried editing Video / Screen resolutions within the parallels definition of your virtual machine? Enable custom screen resolutions & add a new size. I was having some weirdness with my macbook pro 17" and I believe I fixed it by adding a custom resolution of 1680 * 1050. I also...

Now that Parallels reportedly plays nicely with Boot Camp, I have ordered a 160 GB Seagate drive to go in my MacBook Pro Core Duo 1. What I would like to do is make a 40 GB partition for Boot Camp / Parallels so that I can boot up under boot camp when I need real XP grunt. The question is...

Does any one know if the 200GB Fujitsu MHV2200BT fits and works in the original MacBook Pro Core Duo (1) 17"? I know the new Core Duo 2 models have a 200GB build to order option but I am trying to determine if this drive fits in the original model. It is a taller drive - is this an issue...

On 17" MacBookPro Core Duo 1 fully updated... I can happily synchronise with iSync between addressbook and my Nokia N70 phone. However if I try to connect to the phone from within Addressbook to enable functions like sms etc it prompts me to pair. Pairing seems to go ok and displays no...

Under Tiger (fully updated) on original 17" Core Duo Intel MacBook Pro, I have a problem with bluetooth and airport icons randomly going awol. First it was just bluetooth and now airport. Periodically the icons disappear off the menubar and I have to reopen the appropriate preference panes...

Hi, I have a Palm 505 using bluetooth to my TiBook runing X 10.2.4. Until this week all has been well, I could sync palm <> iCal and address book reliably (although functionality is a bit poor - Apple are you listening make categories work properly and second addresses!!!). However all...

I installed a self signed certificate on my Mac some time ago to allow it to connect to my intranet server running that certificate. IE required that I define a password to protect the certificates. The password is now blank but I still get prompted for the password which is blank. I am about...

According to MacOS X Unleashed restore was not implemented by apple < X.2. Does anyone know if restore is implemented in X.2? Any issues with it?

I just got my TiPaint kit. The applicators are toothpicks! - but you do get four - wow! And the paint comes in two tiny plastic vials containing about enough to paint to fill a quarter thimble. You would need to provide your own paint brush 1/5 for fulfilling my expectation 0/5 for...

Well, I now have bluetooth via the D-Link DWB -120M (having wait for it to be Camel trekked from somewhere far far away...) I am thrilled and excited, I can synch my palm from the other side of the room! But what else can I do with it? Is there a list of MacOS X compatible devices...

Its shipping! Well applestore uk is now selling it! :-)

I have several volumes on my up to date X system on TiBook: Documents - no os VRAM - no os MacOS X - OS X & X Apps Windows - virtual pc app and data Scratch - IE and other cache files MacOS9 - OS 9 & 9 apps Empty - OS 9 For some reason, despite being able to boot up with the 'MacOS9'...

Does anyone know why Apple is not shipping (or even allowing you to order) bluetooth? Is it a technical issue of dodgy software/hardware or is it that they just cant make them or what? I have invested in a phone and palm 500 series card but have no Apple solution. The web site is not...

Do you suffer: * iTunes trailing hundreds of itunes temp files; * Explorer forgeting history and favourites changes; * Excel "failed to rename file" on save errors. If you do the simple answer for me was to disable NAV by going into the System library and removing the NAV support...

In Excel, when saving a modified document I am getting the following error: "Save not completed, File rename failed, Retry?" The document is not being renamed. This happens with any excel document. ie new document, save, save -> error. Using word to do the same sort of thing to the same...

Nope. That does not work I am afraid. Its really bugging me!

Doh! I am running NAV 8 also and get the same problem. I wonder if it is the cause of my 'IE Favourites wont save problem also'?

Hmm. That old question huh?! I would like the answer too. Basically, if you can create a script to do it the answer is yes. So if NAV or virex allow CLI scripting or perhaps applescript will allow this then yes, but following the CP mailing list the answer seems to be no at present. But...
