Problem solved. I am not very sure what exactly did the right thing, but now my connection works. However, • reinstalling 10.6 <b>didn't</b> work • installing the update 10.6.5 directly from 10.6 <b>didn't</b> work. • removing all files from /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration...

Hi everyone. Just got my copy of SL 10.6 and I could not connect to Internet through my wireless network. I tried to connect to my router with via Ethernet, but it doesn't work either. Booted from OS X Tiger, it works perfect, otherwise I couldn't post this message. I reinstalled SL 10.6, but...

@DeltaMac. Yes, erase with Disk Utility and install on an empty hdd, that's what I meant by "clean install", too.

Thank you, everyone. Sounds great, I'll purchase one Mac Box Set tomorrow. PPC.

Hello, everyone. Does Mac Box Set (MC209Z/A*) install on a Intel-based Mac without updating the actual OS? I don't want to update any files, I just want to format the HDD and have a new, clean, full install of the Snow Leopard. I want to buy this package and I am not sure if this is only an...

Hi! Many thanks for your answers. I didn't have time to backup my hdd, but I'll do it soon. On the other hand, how do I boot from an external USB hard-drive? I guess there is a key I have to press at boot time, right? :) Which one is it? :) Thanks a lot! PPC

Hi, everyone. I'm running OS X 10.4.11 on a 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro and I want to make a copy of the entire internal HDD on a external (500 Gb) drive, so that I would be able to boot from the external hard-drive... I'm interested in doing it because I want to have a back-up for...

Now I understand why everybody uses the full description of the computer as a signature for messages. I should have written it down somewhere before the... event, too :) But now, after the computer starts, I can tell you that it is a MacBookPro, 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, OS X Tiger.

To me it was more important to have access again to the projects I had stored on my HDD. First I thought it was a problem with the 'Tiger', due to the update, so loosing all information would have been the worst case, worse than any fried or boiled motherboard. :) When people at the service...

Yep, I was too upset and I couldn't make a difference between a MBP and a PB at that time. :) :)

Hello everyone! Just got my MacBookPro back from service. Working! They said it was a problem with the NVidia chipset (which died) and my motherboard had to be replaced. Which they did so fast! So everybody with MacBookPros generation 2007, when you will turn on the computer and the...

Hello, everyone! I have a G4 PowerBook running OS X Tiger. One hour ago I discovered that Apple launched a new Security Update (about 170 Mb), so I updated the system. After restart, the screen is blank and the computer won't start! No startup sound or anything else. What can I do? On...

Thank God I didn't buy that thing and thank you for the info. :-)

Hi! I have a previous model of MacbookPro (http://img.alibaba.com/photo/12199580/Apple_Macbook_Pro.jpg) and a photo camera with SanDisk Extreme III Compact Flash card. I want to buy a card reader (because I am spending too much time to connect the cable to MBP and camera) and I found this...

Actually, that's what I want to see &#8211; if I can use the MBP for graphics (instead of a MacPro). I have a 2.2 GHz Core2Duo MBP with not-so-much RAM (2 Gb), but I don't work with video, only Photoshop and InDesign. What I don't know is if it makes sense to calibrate the Cinema? I know that...

Wow! You're a wizard. :) Thank you so much! Now the image is clear and beautiful and I am using only the Cinema for my work. External keyboard and mouse work fine, too.

Hi everyone! I've just bought a new & nice Cinema Display and I attached it to my MacBookPro. However, I don't like to navigate between the two screens at all and the quality on the Cinema Display is terrible. Actually, I cannot set the Refresh rate, which is low at this time, and the...

a) Problem solved. vsftpd doesn't look for .conf file in /etc, but in /opt/local/etc/ So make sure that you have vsftpd.conf there, unless you clearly specify that it should look for the files in other location. ... still don't have answer for b) :)

Hi, everyone. I just installed vsftpd and one problem and a question. a) the problem me:/Users/me root# vsftpd & 500 OOPS: vsftpd: not configured for standalone, must be started from inetd Actually, vsftpd is *not* configured to run as standalone, I have "listen=YES" in...

Hello, everyone. I have a database of more than 100.000 files on several external HDDs, all formatted with OS X. I recently bought two WD 1.5 Tb WorldBook Edition II, which can be attached to a switch, so that I can free up a computer without having tons of cables and mountains of hard drives...
