Like others I had the problem that I have partioned my harddrive to several different ones with one bigger partion of them holding my data. It was not possible to move the iPhoto Library to this partion an...

Apparently the DOJ (Department of Justice, for you non-USA types) has already started monitoring cable-modem internet traffic. Including obtaining IP addresses, usernames, etc. All without a warrant!! -- WIRED Article I don't know about you guys, but this whole "Homeland Security"...

Hey there! I just wondered if you could help me out with this problem. Unfortunately I partitioned my HD the wrong way so I have about 300-400 MB free (even after moving the swap-files). So when I want to burn a CD with the built-in burning support I won´t be able to fill the CD since it...

Ok, I read an article on The Register http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/archive/21692.html That states Apple may be creating a 64 bit version of OS X that will only run on the yet to be released G5. I was wondering if anyone had info on this or any comments?

OK, does anybody know where I can disable the jumping dock icons? Any config file? I haven't found a way to suppress it in the System Prefs...I find it so annoying that I have to click on Entourage everytime a mail arrives just to stop that icon from jumping! You could have make it glow...or...

I noticed that clicking on a blue slider bar inside a window and scrolling is painfully slow and staggered on a G3 400MHz, 384MB RAM, ATi Rage 128 video card, however, clicking on the window itself and moving the window very quickly is not a problem with no visible lagging / staggering. Moving...

I guess this is known for most of you, but still... Dropping a file on a icon (ex. Applications) in the toolbar would result in that file being moved to the applications folder. For me who always dragged between different finder win's this turned out to be real handy.

How do you move the Apple Menu to any where on the Menu Bar? Also how do you move the dock from the bottom to the side or to the top of the screen and how do you move it back again? I AM NOT USING A PUBLIC BETA OF MAC OS X !
