I've started having some weird problems—I think they *may* have started after running iDefrag, please no discussions about whether to defrag or not, but I'd done it before since upgrading to Leopard and nothing like this ever happened—sometimes while looking at a picture in Preview I'll click...

I just ordered a new OWC 500GB external HD (w/ FW800 and eSATA) as a backup, but now I'm wondering how I should partition it when it arrives, or whether I should have gotten the 750GB version. I'm currently using an iMac G5 with a 160GB HD, almost filled (mostly with movies). I also have...

I'm planning on upgrading to an MBP soon, and might be running Windows at some point. What's the best way to defend against Windows-based viruses on an Intel Mac? (I've heard Norton stuff is crap in general, so no "Dual Action".) (I guess what I'm asking is do you install a Windows antivirus...

I know a lot of people say never to delete anything from the folder Library/Receipts, but how about: printer brands you don't own/use applications you've deleted also: I have about ten receipts for NeoOffice updates--would it be ok to delete all but the last? and a system package...

For a bunch of reasons I don't want to get into yet I was wondering if someone could explain this to me: If you have a desktop and laptop connected through your Airport (private network) and you close your laptop without logging out of the network and then log onto another (unprotected) network...

Sometimes (about one-fifth of the time) when I do a screen capture (using Command-Shift-4) there is a horrible loud cracking in place of the camera clicking sound. I have a pair of Yamaha speakers which are about nine years old but they work fine otherwise, no static, play iTunes great, etc...

I get this error message about 1/3 of the time when I power on my Epson Stylus CX4600. I know printer software is notorious for being s**t, but is there any workaround to get rid of this? (The programs work fine, I just want to know if I can not have this error message display in the first...

I'm about to upgrade to Leopard and I was wondering if its behavior was any different from how I have Mail set up under Tiger to create a "virtual IMAP server"…namely, I just have Mail set to delete emails from the server as soon as I delete them on either my desktop or laptop (I don't use...

I'm having problems with the latest version of Azureus (2.5.0.0), it takes 100% of the CPU (which slows down *everything*) and one of the hints they give is to make sure there's only one version of Java running. I checked and I have the latest version J2SE 5.0 but I also have Plugin Settings...

One of the reviews at Amazon.com says check out the TOC first, but "Look Inside!" is not enabled for this title, nor does the publisher's site offer anything.

I bounce back and forth between Safari and Firefox, so I have different listings of usernames/passwords in each but I don't want to copy all them by hand into both....is there a way to do this automatically? (sort of a login version of BookIt!, if I understand that program correctly) tia
