    Can't find Windows

    Thank you for your speedy reply and condolences. Tragically, my brother was the victim of a roadside bomb in Iraq in October. We have tried what you suggested. Which one is the 'option' key? Is it the one with 'alt' to the left of the Apple key? We did manage to get a screen which had the Mac...

    Can't find Windows

    My brother had an Intel MacBook Pro and had installed Windows XP. Sadly, he died recently and his wife now has the laptop. Unfortunately, neither of us can get into the Windows part of it. We can't even find any reference to it and, when booting up, it automatically opens in OS X without any...

    Webcam won't work

    Ok, the macam.component is now in the right place! Still it doesn't work. Perhaps you could talk me through a step-by-step process as to how you would normally get an image on-screen. I have the camera connected via an USB cable, although there is nothing to suggest it is active or recognised. I...

    Webcam won't work

    Thanks for all your replies. I started with the simplest first: eric2006 - Pressing the 'play' button had no effect. I don't have an USB Hub I can try. joeraymond - You may well be right about the USB ports not being powered. I've only used a digital camera, with its own battery, so that might...

    Webcam won't work

    I'm using an iBook and the camera is connected to one of the two USB sockets at the side (I've even tried both of them). The laptop doesn't seem to sense the presence of the camera at all. Should there be a light on the camera to indicate it is on? I pressed the only button on it that I see but...

    Webcam won't work

    I bought an Emprex webcam (advertised for Windows/Mac) but it won't work. I tried downloading the 'Macam' driver from the Ecamm website but, basically, I don't know what I'm supposed to do with it. When I open the application, a small window appears but says at the bottom 'No camera selected'...

    Empty Address Book

    Within the last couple of days, my address book has completely emptied itself. I tried looking in Library/ApplicationSupport/AddressBook and found 4 articles and a folder. Address Book Data and Address Book Data.previous are both the same size so it appears that the data is lost. Can you tell...

    Print Explosion Deluxe

    As a newcomer to Mac I wasn't aware of the need for this kind of programme. Is this something exclusive to Mac as I didn't need to know about Font Management with Windows? The problem just seems to be with Print Explosion as I can edit text okay in 'Text Edit'.

    Print Explosion Deluxe

    Thanks for that info, Chokoretto. Nova have never offered any help as to what may be causing the problem. The problem I had was that I couldn't have different styles of font in the one text box. If I tried to put, say, the verse of a song in italics, the entire thing would change. I have...

    Print Explosion Deluxe

    Does anyone have this software? I bought it in January and can't get it to work on OS X Tiger. The manufacturer say it's not guaranteed to work on Tiger but Apple say it is! They told me to download the updates which I did. But the update won't install. I expanded the Stuffit file and clicked...

    Appleworks Database Problem

    Thanks, Barhar. I have gone through the instructions for reports many times but it isn't answering the problem I have. I haven't given up and am still in dialogue with someone on the Apple Discussion Forums.

    Appleworks Database Problem

    I can't understand how to produce a report from a Database. In MS Works, you simply selected 'Report' and chose which fields you wanted to include in the report, which could then be printed in List View. However, in Appleworks it says, before you can do a new report, you have to have something...
