Thanks for the tip. The honest answer is "I don't know". Can you suggest how I could find out if the router has a firewall? For sure I have not done anything to set one up, but maybe it happens automatically? As you can see I'm way out of my depth with the technical issues here, so any help...

First of all, merry Christmas and happy New Year to all! I'd very much appreciate some advice with the following problem. For about a year I have had a flatscreen iMac and internet connection via a Speedtouch 510 router to the ADLS service provided by Pipex (I'm in England by the way). This...

Hmm, not sure I'd completely go with the BMW or Mercedes analogy. I've owned examples of both. and whilst all have been good cars they have distinct charactaristics. BMWs are good quality, but undeniably a bit "flash" and aspirational. Mercedes are also good quality, but for me are somewhat...

Brilliant, thanks!! I had neglected to select the "Manage manually" option. Many thanks for your help.

Anyone able to help with the following problem? I've just bought my daughter an iPod for her birthday, but having loaded it up with all the tracks in our iTunes library we'd like to delete some of them from the iPod. According to Apple's documentation this should just require us to select the...

Yes! Another go for Paragon

No, sorry

Ok, how about this: "He's not the Messiah. He's a very naughty boy"

Paragon, yours was from Monty Python & the Holy Grail. Was "LA Story" the correct answer to Nkuvu's question? You seemed unsure

OK I need to go to bed now (very early start tomorrow) so I'll give it away. It was a line spoken by Michael Caine in the film "the Italian Job" Someone else can have a go now

Yes, a brilliant line from a great film, couldn't mistake it! Any ideas on mine? It's from a very famous 1960's film

Four Weddings and a Funeral. How about one from another British movie:- "You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!"

This has been a very interesting thread. I fully agree that a level of respect for grammar is important, though we should of course be tolerant of those for whom English is not their first language. However, there is sometimes a fine line between respect for the rules of grammar for the...

Trivial point, but I think the clock on this site is wrong. At the bottom of each page it says "All times are GMT" and just now it was saying "time now is 07:42pm". BUT!, it is currently 07:42pm local time in England, and since we are currently in British Summer Time (BST) it is in fact...

Hi everyone, I'm a recent convert to Macs after years of using windoze. I use PCs at work (I'm in investment banking - no chance of finding Apple products there!) and have had two at home. The home PC was getting out of date and I was thinking about replacing it, when the new flat screen...

Couldn't agree more. The experienced people on the Mac forum there were extremely helpful when I was first getting myself set up with ADSL

Thanks! I had assumed that software update would apply to all Apple applications - I live and learn...............

Hi folks I have iPhoto 1.0, and I see from Apple's site that iPhoto 1.1.1 is now available. However when I select Software Update from System Preferences it tells me that my software is all up to date. Any idea what the problem is? Should I just download iPhoto 1.1.1 from scratch?

Thanks!! So obvious once you know. I guess years of Windows use had stopped me seeing it.

Apologies in advance if this is a really stupid question, but I've looked hard for an answer in "Help" and on this site without luck. How do I open a file from a CD-Rom in an application such as Appleworks? When I click File/Open I find that I am able to browse any folders that are on the...
