I hear you. When I got my PowerBook, one dead pixel almost killed my joy. I gotta hand it to Apple, though. A year and a half later, I still love my baby, dings, dents and all.

If that was happening to me, I wouldn't have reason for concerns. I don't even look at the keyboard, anyway. I did experience that sort of thing with my iBook G3 900, though, but I'm pretty sure it happened after the one-year warranty period. I've had my PowerBook 12" 1.33Ghz for about 18...

Does Command-Option-H work? It does on 10.4.3.

Here's an excerpt from an article quoting Apple: Here's the article: http://www.macworld.co.uk/news/index.cfm?newsid=2691 I know that your version is 9.2.2, but this is only one of the articles I've found stating that the OS9 install CDs are hardware specific; what works on one might not work...

Is it possible that your OS9 CD is actually an UPGRADE CD? If that's the case, you need to find the CD that installs a full version of OS9. What's the labeling on the CD?

One of the benefits of waiting until after a big Apple event before buying a new Mac is that the "old" stock goes down in price. If memory and perception serves me right, we're talking about a 100 dollars difference. (If you purchase a Mac Mini a day before the new ones come out, you're still...

It might be a good time to rescue as many important files as you can. I made the following relevant entry in SuperDuper's forum: http://www.shirt-pocket.com/forums/showpost.php?p=4850&postcount=13 Hmm, I wonder... try this: select the file you're not able to copy. Control-click it. From...

I wonder if this might work for you: http://www.crispsofties.com/ipodfreefilesync/

I believe one sets that option from within Disk Utility. Try erasing the OS9 partition and see if somewhere there's a checkbox for installing the OS9 drivers. If not accessible there, then you might have to erase the whole drive in order to be given that option. (Hopefully that's not the...

I was succesful with Safari, at least in getting to their about page. Try emailing webmaster@freeverse.com to let them know that no downloads are listed for the Mac version of Legion and Spartan. Other emails are info@freeverse.com and sales@freeverse.com Solace is downloading as I type...

Pacifist should do it.

Your answer is on the following site: http://www.lowendmac.com/ppc/g4mp.html It says that the limit is 128Gigz, but you can hack it. Scroll all the way down to "Cautions" for more info.

Try Adium. It allows you to connect to your AOL, Yahoo, and MSN accounts all from one application. The last time I tried AOL Instant Messenger it was bulky and slow.

You get that error message because you are attempting to run a program that is not OSX compatible. Is it necessary for you to run that OS9 (or earlier) program? Have you considered looking for an OSX program that serves the same function? See versiontracker.com and find out if such a program...

I'd just buy another external hard disk. But if you insist, there's a 0-50 dollar solution here: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/sharefwdrive.html

Which application is doing the downloading? Is it Safari? If so, go to the menubar; click on Safari; select preferences; make sure "General" is selected in the window that emerges (top left corner of window); look for "Save downloaded files to" and set it to where you want the files to be...

And then there's the microwave oven. It all depends on how much space there is in your home and how it is arranged. Back at my old place, no matter where I put the computer in relation to the airport base station, there would always be something obstructing the path of the wireless signal the...
