I've been working for one month now with my new G4/800 and MacOS X. I have to say that the OS itself and its functionalities are great. Nice crossplatform networking and some other nice and well thought features. But it's simply too slow to be used as a professional machine. Finder speed...

Dear All, I use MacOS X in a working environment and I was wondering if there is any shareware or freeware that can 'Lock The Screen', instead of Logging Out or leave the machine unattended. Thanks for your time. CockneyGeezer

Dear All, I think like everyone in the world, I use a Iomega ZIP disk at work. Sometimes, I need to use PC disks so that I can give it to my colleagues. One thing that I found out to my surprise is that I can't Format Mac Zip Disks to PC-DOS within MacOS X. I have been to the Iomega...

In the preferences "energy saver" panel I have set my built-in iMac monitor to switch off after 20 minutes. Unfortunately, OS X won't really shut down the monitor after the set time. Although the screen will get black, the monitor will b still switched on, as I can see when its dark in my room...

I just recently purchased my dual USB iBook 600Mhz, with 384 MB RAM, running OSX and I love it! but... My last computer was a 2001 clamshell iBook SE and watched DVDs on the display and sent audio to my stereo using the A/V cable all the time with no problem. To do this (in OS 9) I simply...

Hellol All!! I just moved back to Germany last month! I started to get interested into DIvX before I returned. Unfortunately in Europe Apple is not really common as it is in America. But here almost everybody of my friens is downloading DIVX movies from the net and sharing them...

Here's an interesting question/problem I'm having that I can't seem to find anywhere after much searching. I have a TiBook and have hooked an Airport to the work network which is all windows with a proxy authenticator. Now, when I attach ethernet to the TiBook (running OS X) and sign in...

I have a wired problem with some CD (containing photos). They were fine under OS9.2, but now, when I open these in the finder, the included floder has a CD Icon and links to the top of the CD, therefore I cannot find the data files anymore. Like My CD -> My CD -> My CD -> My CD ... Any...

"In February 1998 Apple officially discontinued the Newton project. Although some people insisted that this was the revenge of Steve Jobs for being kicked out of Apple in 1985 by killing Sculley's favorite project, the real reason was that Apple could not afford the Newton project at that time...

I'm desperatly trying to connect an USB modem to my new PowerBook G4 running OS 10.1.1. The modem is a Zyxel Omni.net USB, which worked fine with my old PowerBook G3 and OS 9.0.1. As indicated by Zyxel, I copied the scripts to the right place, but I still cannot have OS X recognise the...

Do you know games that work well under MacOS X ? Most of the games me and my children play are either very slow (Unreal, Nascar) or simply very difficult to use (Quake 1 2 3, Caramaggedon, Duke Nukem, Heavy Metal, Oni, FA-18 Korea). Only SimTown and Forestia are ok.

You can also use a LDAP-conform Operating System like Linux as a server... but the Macintosh Manager on MacOS X Server looks like better!!! :D

I was using windows 2000 today and noticed how EXTREMELY smooth window resizing is in explorer and other applications. There is no lag whatsoever on a machine that is at least a year old. Then I went back to osx 10.1 running on my powerbook G4 with 384mb ram and was a little depressed. It's so...
