I'm looking for a tool which will display the total number of messages in a mailbox regardless of the Read/Unread status. Ideally the number of messages is displayed next to each mailbox but I'll take whatever I can get. Anyone know of such software?

Here's a fun one... I'm running a Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 wireless access point and router with the stock firmware. It's running in mixed-mode 802.11b/g and WPA (TKIP) security. My MacBook (Core Duo) has intermittant problems getting a DHCP address. For a number of days everything works 100%...

Internet Explorer (for Windows) can view an XML document and the subsequent output looks like formatted HTML. You don't see XML tags or other arcane information - IE simply outputs human-readable information. I'm looking for software which does the same for OS X. Thus far all I can find are...

I regularly connect my Mac to my Windows computer using Finder. However, I can't connect to the Windows computers using Terminal, Chicken of the VNC, or Remote Desktop Client - the hostname won't resolve. It works fine if I use the IP address. Problem is, I use DHCP at home and don't want to...

I've got two batteries for my TiBook which I've owned for the last 18 months or so. Traditionally, I have always plugged in the AC adapter unless I needed to be untethered. My batteries were always being charged. I recently discovered that my batteries have lost their memory. Both...

I'm running OS X 10.3.5. Does anyone know why, and how to stop, the Macintosh disk volume icon from randomly moving around? After a reboot or a display resolution change, the icon will randomly move elsewhere. The space it takes on the desktop is wide open - it's not as if the other icons...

I was playing around one day and accidently started configuring VPN on OS X. No biggie, I simply cancelled out. However, the VPN connect icon is on my desktop menu bar and I can't get it to go away. I've removed VPN from Network in System Preferences but it still shows up in the menu bar...

I've looked around and can't seem to find any vendor offering a replacement internal AirPort card for TiBooks. It seems if I want to use 802.11g instead of the built-in 802.11b, I need to use the CardBus (PC Card) slot. Doesn't someone make a card to replace the internal AirPort? I thought...

I've been a long-time user of computers from the early 80s: Timex, Commodore, Atari (8- and 16-bit), Mac Classic, and finally settling to PCs because I could afford one in 1988. Recently I bought a PowerBook to accompany my Windows XP desktop. For about a year I've been visiting a...

Is it possible to run a virtual machine in OS X that allows me to install another PPC operating system such as a Linux/PPC distro? I'm spoiled by VMWare for Windows.

I've look around a bit and can't seem to find how to display my currently assigned name servers (DNS) on my Mac. My Mac is using DHCP and my DHCP server is configured to assign DNS servers to DHCP clients. However, the Network Preferences panel doesn't display the name servers - only the IP...

Does anyone have any thoughts about Apple's X11 implementation, XDarwin, and Fink? At the moment, Fink doesn't support gcc 3.3 or 10.3 so it's somewhat of a moot point. But when they get it working, what X server should I use? Will Fink ports compile under Apple X11 without any changes?

Hello. I've browsed through some topics and found a lot of information re. OSX and SMB but it dealt with 10.1, not 10.2. Here's my issue, maybe someone can help. I have a PowerBook G4 (15") with 10.2.6. Trying to connect to shares on an XP and 2000 box. Finder won't show me the computer...

I'm a long-time PC user. I have recently been using my G4-450 to replace my "day to day" Windows XP machine. I'll spare you the reasons for now - maybe in a different post. With Windows, I'm used to extensive driver support for everything: printers, scanners, hard drives, CD-ROM, CD-RW, and...
