I bought a used Mac for my mother. Her PC is on its last legs. That has been a nightmare for me, cuz it all falls on me to help her through all the BS it takes to keep one of those going. So I bought this thing from a kid. It is a 1.25GHz Power PC G4 with 1GB Ram. It is loaded with OSX 10.5.7, and parts of ilife 09. He was busy deleting pictures of his ex girlfriend when I got there to pick it up, and I think he deleted an important part, because now photos will not open fullscreen. The hard drive is 74.43 GB, with 6.27 available. It didn't come with system restore disks. All my mother does is email her friends and look at pictures. Sometimes write a letter, but not too often, cuz she can't keep her printer running, either.
2 questions: Would it be best to find a system restore disk and restore it back to the original software that came on it? How much stuff can I delete off of this Mac without hurting it?
How can I get the fullscreen back in Iphoto? (it wont edit, play slideshows, or show any picture in fullscreen.)
Thanks for any opinions
