I think what Steve Jobs said is that iChat AV should soon be compatible with a Windows product. However, I seriously doubt that this means iChat will be ported . I have the feeling that AOL might add compatible video technology to its Instant Messenger. Can you all remember when iChat was...

Fantastic! It works - thanks for the quick replies. I almost started swearing at Apple for such an enormous ommission but luckily... The only other (more minor) issue that I'd like to connect or disconnect a monitor or any other (USB, FireWire) peripheral whilst the TiBook is in sleep mode...

Does anyone know whether it is possible to use a Cinema Display in 1600 x 1024 resolution in combination with a TiBook? I want to use my TiBook in combination with the CinemaDisplay. But when I switch to video mirroring my Cinema Display only shows 1280 x 1024. In other words I have a huge...

Well, after my initial posting I tried all sorts of things. I thought that perhaos the 10.2.4 upgrade has messed things up so I reinstalled Jaguar (keeping all my program files): no luck - firewire was still gone. I then did a complete reinstall, thinking that some piece of 3rd party software or...

Really odd. This morning I discovered my Firewire ports don't work anymore. Neither my CD burner nor my LaCie pocket drive work. There is power coming over the cable because the LaCie harddrive is spinning but the Finder just doesn't mount them. The problem may have been there for a week or...

I installed a few haxies and other little programs that add an icon to your System Preferences panel. Some don't work any more after I upgraded OSX or I have become irrelevant. I deleted the programs but how can I get rid of these icons in my System Preferences panel?

I have seen some rumours that 10.3 will include a much improved iChat - sound, videoconferencing. I hope these rumours are true.

Thanks for your replies! I guess what I had in mind isn't really possible. My wife had a seperate account on my computer but when I was logged in she tended to come around and say "can I just quickly check my mail?" or "I quickly want to check this webpage...". Logging out of my account and...

Is there a way to run two seperate copies of Apple Mail on the same system? My wife also uses my computer and I don't want to set up a separe user profile for her. It would mean continuously having to log off and log in. Too much hassle. I am using Entourage now, whilst she has taken possession...

After a hard reboot Chimera got corrupted on my system. I now refuses to start up claiming that anotehr copy is already running. I only get to see the splash screen and then a message saying that only one copy can run at anyone time. I know for sure that Chimera isn't running (checked with 'top'...

Thanks. I gave it a try but Terminal only returns the line: "lynx: Command not found." Should I run the command from a specific directory I wonder?

I have downloaded the latest version of Lynx (2.8.4 compiled for Jaguar). It installed without a problem but now I don't know how to start it. I feel pretty stupid but the only thing I can find on my harddrive is a kernel extension called AppleLynx.kext. I am a total newbie when it comes to Unix...

control click icon of document --> get info --> open with --> select program. You can make it apply to that single file or to all files with a similar extension.

Just an other quick thought. About a year ago SonyEricsson announced that it would be licence its mobile technology to third parties. In other words, outside manufacturers can 'buy' Ericsson technology (in particular radio technology) to construct their own phones. The main sticking point for...

Read today's Herald Tribune. It had a short interview with Steve Jobs at the Apple Expo in Paris. Jobs was asked whether Apple was coming out with an iPhone. Instead of denying it ouright Jobs answered something like: perhaps but is it custom at Apple never to speculate on new products (I don't...

MacFreak (www.macfreak.org) is reporting that Apple representatives at the Apple-Expo in Paris let slip that Apple will soon announce an Xserve RAID. Of course the form factor will be different from the current Xserve (3U or 4U) and has a storage capacity of 1.68 TB. MacFreak is also...

I am trying to get VisualRoute to work. However, my AirPort acts as a personal firewall and blocks all incoming ICMP traffic. This means that when tracing an IP address I can see how many hops it took to get to the server, I can see what server is being used but I can't see where the server is...
