    Upgrading iMac G5 to 802.11n?

    I know there's a USB option for bringing 802.11n to my iMac G5 (20", pre-iSight), but I'm wondering if anyone has run across an internal solution. I know Apple is selling an 802.11n AirPort Extreme card for MacBooks as a service part (not a retail part). Does anyone know if this card will...

    Automator workflow doesn't work as Plugin

    Hi there, I've created a workflow in Automator that calls and connects to three different servers. It bothers me that the Finder opens the volume window upon mounting it, and I like that Automator simply mounts the volume on my desktop without opening its root window. Two of the three of...

Does anyone...

    So while re-installing Jag, I accidentally forgot to customize the install and tell it NOT to install all those other system languages. Not only do they take FOREVER to install, but they take up a ton of space. Is there an easy command-line fix to remove the other language files? Is there...

    Invisible Folders in Mail.app

    So the IMAP server I use through school has a horde or invisible directories within the directory holding my inbox (.pinerec, .msgrec, etc).
