apps

Hi all, I just installed Jaguar on the weekend and was surprised to find out that it wiped out the preference lists of third party installed apps on my machine. Apps like TinkerTool, BrickHouse etc. are all missing. Also, my macam drivers for my webcam are not working anymore. And i had to...

It just occurred to me as I continue to ponder my future life in an OS X-only world, that I and many others may be in a world of hurt, inconvenience and otherwise if we ever decide to dump 9/Classic (or are forced by Apple's future non-9 compliant machines). The problem lies in the fact that...

Which are they? :)

In 10.1 when you hid an app in the dock it would show it faded (dont remember if this was with the help of TinkerTool) but TinkerTool does not work in 10.2 and i was wondering if there was another way to enable this fading.

Long ago I pleaged agianst AOL, and abandonded it for Earthlink, but unfortunately I still have some friends who use it (I am very ashamed of them). Most of these friends still come to me for computer help since I seem to be easier to get a hold of then tech support, so the evil application has...

Everywhere I read, configure, make, etc. are explained - but what if I want to de-install a unix app. Say I use apache 1.3.26 and would like to upgrade to apache 2.0.40 - what do I do? -should I deinstall version 1.3 ? how? -can I re-use some of my old configurations? Any help would...

Well I know this isn't exactly the best place to put this but I was just wondering about applications for Linux. I hear so much about the great open source gurus and all but I have know idea where to go searching for them. So here is my request, if you would please list any *free* programs...

I have a strange problem on my Ti running 10.1.5 that doesn't seem to be hurting anything but is driving me crazy. When I close OS X Mail, IE, Word and Excel I usually get the "The application xxxxxxxx has unexpectedly quit" message. The message is displayed at the very end of the close cycle...

I have a Linux server running Netatalk-1.4b2+asun2.1.3-42. The shared drives can be seen without a problem by all Macs not running OS X. However, on the OS X (10.1.5) machine there is a really crazy problem. Although all of the files on the shared drive can be seen from the desktop, if you...

Watching iTunes eat up large chunks of my CPU usage when playing (often 25-30%) I got to wondering if it was possible to limit CPU usage on an app by app basis. Then I thought, hmmm - this smells like something some obscure UNIX command can probably do. I guess in the case of iTunes it...

Just exactly how many applications can you put in the Dock Thanks

Since i know fairly little about this I wass wondering if anyone here could help me. I was under the impression that porting a Unix app from a intel version of Unix was a fairly simple deal. A recompile the sourcecode using the developer tools (with some tweeking required) kind of deal. But...

I'm currentley using Microsoft Oulook (in classic mode) to commuincate with our exchange server to get my email. However there is no update, nor does one seem to be on its way, so I'm looking for an alternative. I can use other email programs like the machine's default email program and connect...

Is it ok to install OS 9 applications through OS X or is it better to reboot into OS 9 to do so. I didn't know whether OS X was smart enough to handle it in every situation, or if OS 9 apps could potentially get screwed up.
