I would try the following with Safari. First, empty Safari's cache, and delete the com.apple.safari.plist file from home > Library > Preferences. Second, reset Safari's history. Finally, quit Safari, go Home > Library > Safari, and trash the contents of the "Icons" folder. When this folder gets...

Try starting up with your Tiger install DVD and attaching the drive as your Mac begins to startup or after it starts up (the latter first, and both if necessary). If the drive doesn't show up, then try mounting it. If you ever get it to showup, then try repairing disk and permissions on it. And...

For both with problems, check here. Also, I had no problems installing Tiger on my firewire external. So, I think you can rule out attempting to install on the firewire as the problem--not that you implied otherwise.

You may have a RAM shortage. Are you having many, or excessively long spinning, SBBOSs? Are your having excessive pageouts? If yes to these questions, then, as mentioned, you may have a RAM shortage. If not, then adding RAM would not help noticeably if at all. Shutting down once is a good...

Puting your data on the external won't speed things up particularly unless your internal is too close to full. The only way an external would speed things up appreciably is if it is a higher RPM drive than your internal and you choose to start up to it. And, as far as I know, drives that are...

I gave some suggestions above. Whether you want to do them all or not, you might want to try Preferential Treatment. I tried the newest version, and it runs fine on my Tiger. As I recall, its site says it is Tiger ready.

Tiger and Virex are not compatible. Virex is no longer available at .Mac. You can get the uninstaller at MacAfee's (sp?) website.

If the scale is, as you suggest, something like a nice update with some useful add ons (1) to a must have system (2), then my rating is a 5. I like Tiger very much and am glad to have it, but it has changed very little in my life. I like Tiger very much because I like Panther very much.

Gosh guys. My Porsche designs have held up really well.

I would try the maintenance/troubleshooting mentioned below. If doing so does not help, then I would do an erase and install or an archive and install/preserve user and network settings. 1. Empty the trash, and clear all browser caches; 2. Repair disk and repair permissions (I know you have...

Darn. Oh well. Also, I know you can make disk images of some folders. And, I thought you could make a disk image of any folder, but no???

I agree, of course. He appeared to be trying to keep things as simple as possible.

You should be able to make compressed disk images of what you want using Disk Utility. The compression allowed is not huge though.

I have noticed Tiger running Safari, Camino, repair disk, and repair permissions slightly faster. And, my iBook starts up faster--which hardly matters since I rarely shut it down. I used to have pageouts/pageins of 1% or so doing light tasks. I have none now on the same sorts of tasks--a pretty...

That action would violate your mom's software agreement with Apple assuming she installs Tiger.

You are very welcome.

You are very welcome. And, check the link; some have shipped with 10.3.7.

Here is some information about installing Apple apps assuming your Mac came with 10.3.7 or later (if they exist) DVDs.
