    New Support Software, Site Layout

    That really blows…I wrote a long and detailed description of the continuing trouble I have with the Disk Utility's permissions repairing feature on my G4 iMac. I wrote it on 3-15. That was a week after I received the MacOSX email dated 3-7 introducing your new support program. It took a week...

    New Support Software, Site Layout

    I have been trying to add a new response to help I was receiving on question/problem #41369…the last response by your staff was on 3-16-05. The link provided in the email defaults to your home page and I can't find the thread with my question and your staff's 2 responses. Can you help?

    Labelling Folders

    I use a variety of folders that I got for free from this site: http://www.mixthepix.com/ There are colored solids and transparent ones. The group I downloaded contains 17 varieties under the name "New Folders For A New Year" and it's 908 KB.

    Pro Keyboard iSkin

    So 2 out of 3 are disappointed…I wonder which side I'll be on in a week or so. It arrived and was put on yesterday; so far I like it a lot. I never really noticed the clacking noise of the keyboard until I put the iSkin on and it didn't happen anymore. Reinforces that old saying that you never...

    10.2.8 - second time around. Do you trust it?

    That's what I'm thinking! I started with the initial Jaguar release and updated through 10.2.6, which has been so great (knock on wood) that I probably won't do 10.2.8 since Panther is so close and I'm probably going to stick with Jaguar. After all, how many more updates can they release so...

    Pro Keyboard iSkin

    Well, I sold a kidney and ordered the iSkin. It should be here Monday. I never want to have to clean those keys again, even though it was pretty easy using plain alcohol on a cloth for the tops and alcohol on q-tips around the sides…looks brand new.

    iMac volume & eject keys stopped working

    I can't tell you how to get those eject and volume key functions back, but, you can add icons to your menu bar that will do the job when you click on them. In the Finder, under your HD, go to System>Library>CoreServices>Menu Extras. In that window you can choose to add a number of features to...

    Cars, Trucks and Minivans... oh my!

    Growing up in Chicago with plenty of public transportation, I never felt the need for a car and didn't even bother to take lessons, much less get a license. I always liked the Beetle and pledged to get one if I ever decided to take up driving. Before that happened, the Beetle was banned from...

    Pro Keyboard iSkin

    I've just finished cleaning my keys again and am wondering if anyone has an opinion about these keyboard covers: http://iskin4ipod.com/iskin_protouch_spc.html They're awful expensive at $35, but, it may be worth it if I don't have to go though all that work again ~ it's exhausting...

    Java Update 1.4.1 Repeat

    This week Software Update offered me Java 1.4.1 for Mac OS X. It was downloaded and installed without any problems (such a great machine!). When I went to file away the descriptive article about it with my notations of when and by what means I did the update, I came across the exact same article...

    Trouble with Preview

    I had the same problem, tried the same solution and got the same result. In the end, I deleted Adobe altogether and haven't had a problem since. It's easy enough to download the basic Adobe program, if you really need it for some reason.

    Safari bookmark menu lags

    Deleting the favicons altogether speeds up the load time of Safari itself: In the finder: HD>User>Your Name>Library>Safari>Icons Deleting those little buggers took my Safari load time from over a minute to instantaneous! You can periodically dump them, or Get Info on the icon folder and...
