2 users: 1.) Root user (always on to run OS and essential system tasks), 2.) You, as an administrator or user.

If the drives are internal, check Master/Slave settings on the back of your HD's? Make sure all the cables are plugged in tightly?

Hello all. I've seen several instances where uptime has been spoken of as a point of pride. How stable is OSX on average? Let's find out... For all of you that sleep your Mac instead of shutting it down every night (or run OS X servers), post your uptime and we'll find out how stable OS X is...

That is the coolest use of quartz extreme I've yet seen (whirlpool effect)! Wow. Handy and pretty. :)

Don't know if this will add it, but to open it in iTunes, pull down the "Advanced" menu and select "Open Stream...". Apple-U, if you are on a Mac. Type/Paste in the address. Hope it works!

Well, I never thought we'd see a day when Wall Street was crazy about Apple and not so hot on MS, but.... Apple: http://www.macminute.com/2005/07/19/forbes-piper-jaffray/ MS: http://news.com.com/2061-11199_3-5810859.html?part=rss&tag=5810859&subj=news Thoughts (esp. concerning the...

Dosen't look like dynamic folders, just the stock folder icons for the folders that would be the equivalent of what's in the users folder in OSX.

Kernel panics are due (most of the time) to hardware errors. Did you install the airport card in the emac yourself? It may have become loose (could explain why it works sometimes, but not other times). Hopefully it is just loose and not broken in itself (then you would get a panic consitently...

Still have the original software install disks? There is a hardware test suite (Apple Hardware Test) on one of them. May be able to diagnose whether this is a display or video card problem. See... http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=114112 ... for more information. Good luck!!

Also, Disk utility can format a USB flash disk for windows format (I've done it plenty of times). Also, since you have a PC, why not let the PC format it? The mac will still be able to read it afterwards.

Looks like your widget manager file (the actual widget) got corrupted. I'd upload mine, but i can't seem to find my copy (the actual file, that is).

At least this issue is now recorded for future reference, were someone else to have this problem. P.S. I think you missread the last post from spb. He does have this printer and has figured out how to set it up. I'd think problem solved.

This is why I would like to see a hibernation option (as in Windows, its a shame OS X does not have this option yet). Store what is in RAM on the harddrive (OS and all programs) and then load it up in that exact state (without having to load all of the OS again, just the disk stored RAM state)...

Ok... I am connecting to the printer via LPD (Line printer Daemon), typed in the printer's IP address, left the queue blank, gave it a name, didn't give it a location (these last two I don't think matter much), and from the print using pull-down selected Xerox, and then Phaser 8400DP. See...

Not a bug. We have one where I work and it duplexes fine... I'll go see what setting I have...

Well, I was off by ~12 hours (sorry), but the iTMS finally topped 1/2 billion at about 5:50 pm EST. Congratualtions to whoever the contest winner was.

Less than 1 Million songs to go. 500,000,000 should happen sometime tonight or early sunday morning (US Eastern time). For those interested in the contest, get your mouse button ready... ;)

If nobody stated it yet, bring back the "put away..." command (Cmd-Y) that was in OS 8 - 9. I still find a use for it sometimes, yet can't use it in OSX.

May be a problem that I tried helping out someone else with. See my posts in the thread links: http://www.macosx.com/forums/showthread.php?t=51192 Good luck.

Hello all, Since I have a PB and I am always concerned with processor load and its not so nice side effects (heat/ battery drain), I decided to post this to see if anyone else has the same issue. Whenever I update the podcasts I have subscribed to, iTunes tends to run the processor at 100%...
