    Vanished Applications

    I bought a Powerbook G4 a couple of weeks ago, it was working great until a couple of days ago so I decided to do a clean install. Since then, I can't find OmniOutliner and OmniGraffle, the 2 apps I used the most. They came with my first install. I've used Pacifist to find them on the...

    Disappearing Task Bar Icons

    Thanks Andy, I think you may have hit the nail on the head there, I installed Fruitmenu the other day, I think that could be the cause! Thanks again.

    Disappearing Task Bar Icons

    Hmm, not quite sure of the correct name for it, but I meant the bar that runs a long the top of the screen. The icons are the ones that are displayed on the top right, next to the clock. Hope this helps.

    Disappearing Task Bar Icons

    I bought a Powerbook G4 a couple of weeks ago, everything works great, apart from the Task Bar. I have added Icons for Keychain, Displays, International Prefs and iSync. I have found that when I restart my system, all these Icons disappear, and I have to reset them all again. I've done...

    .Mac questions for .Mac users

    Virtually no spam for me either, and I've put my email address anywhere and everywhere, seems to be a very good system. I admit, the cost of .Mac isn't cheap, but I do find it very useful. Especially the syncing of my address book and bookmarks as: a) It makes it easy to send emails from...

    Data Merge Address Book & Word X

    I'm using Word X for most of my Word Processing stuff at the moment, and it works great. The only bugbear is that I use Address Book and Mail.app as my main clients, and would rather not have to get into using Entourage as I am very pleased with both, and use iSync. When I set up a data...

    USA iBook in the UK?

    Adaptor is fine, the only thing that will be different maybe the lack of £ sign on the keyboard. But that's easily fixed, just change your location to the UK and press the number 3 key. I use my UK ibook in Australia, and have bought a Powerbook in Australia that I use the the UK. Both are...

    iSight, Yes or No?

    Thanks for all your help guys. I'm not the proud owner of iSight. What a funky little piece of kit it is too! I'm already bugging my mates with little movies I've edited in iMovie. Poor sods. J

    iSight, Yes or No?

    Simple question I hope. I'm off to get a Web cam tomorrow, for my Powerbook. Obviously, iSight is my first choice for looks and loyalty to brand, but how it's performance? Any feedback would be great. Cheers. Jon

    Adobe to make iTMS for stock photography...

    I use istockphoto.com regularly. I find it more than useful, and always manage to find the image I need. It's perfect when you need that 'something' for a web site, or want a fairly mundane picture, and don't want to fork out the huge amounts of money the usual photo sites ask for.

    3 Button Mice (in use)

    Same here. I've got a Macally mouse for my Powerbook, it just plugs in, no drivers, nothing. 2 Button and scrollwheel, assigned to Expose. Perfect!

    iDVD Conversion

    Hey all, I've got a Powerbook G4 with Combo Drive, which enables me to makes fantastic Dvd movies and...... not burn them! Does anyone know of any way to convert the idvd file format into one that can be burned on a Windows XP Machine? Much as I would love to transfer the movies to a...

    Safari 1.2 in software update.

    I may have completely missed it before, but Safari now seems to display image descriptions like IE for Windows when you put your little hand over it.

    Expose - How can I kill it?

    I'm not sure what type of mouse you have, but I have a 2 button with scroll wheel. I set the scroll wheel to activate Expose when I press it down. I find it totally under my control and impossible to accidentally trigger. As mentioned before, this can all be configured under Expose Prefs...

    ready for a big mac group hug!

    I'm (also) sitting here on my sofa with my little ibook, doing everything I need it too. I've judt emigrated from the UK to Australia, and couldn't have done without it. It's worked seemlessly for keeping in touch with freinds and family, looking after my photographs, and even as an Mp3...

    Mail.app Font Size.

    I have finally made the total move over from Entourage to Mail since upgrading to Panther. However, the one (tiny) thing that bothers me, is the size of text displaying in the message. I can alter the header size, and the message details size, from the preferences pane, but this doesn't...

    iCal alarm notification not working

    Thats exactly what I noticed. So in the end I thought 'bugger this' and just deleted the lot! It seems to be like one of those times when just switching a PC off solves it's problems. ;o) Glad you're sorted now.

    iCal alarm notification not working

    I had exactly the same problem until yesterday. I tried everything that was suggested on here, deleted all the files and reinstalled etc.\ In the end, all I did was delete all my calenders and start again. That worked. God knows how, but it did!
