  • I hate to say it, but the next thing I'd do is wipe the drive clean, run a disk check on it and re-install the OS.
  • I'd also try clearing out the font and browser caches. You can use a tool like Onyx to do that. Do you get the same problem if you create a new user account on your Mac?
  • Hmmm, it's probably worth checking your anti-aliasing settings in System Preferences > Appearance. If you have any of the accessibility preferences enabled that might also interfere with the font rendering. It's only happening in Safari right?…
  • You'll either need some sort of software that strips out the resource forks on the files, or you need to set your image editor not to create the resources in the first place. Most modern OS X apps these days no longer create resources forks. I be…
  • You can use the Font Book.app to run a check on all your installed fonts to make sure there aren't any problems with them. See http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304764 for details. Also, go into the Safari Preferences > Advanced a…
  • A friend of mine just bought his first Mac - a 17" MacBook Pro. He asked me what kind of screen he should get, and I told him that if he was serious about colour accuracy, he should go for the matte screen. He wanted to use Photoshop on the machine,…
  • An extra 10 gig appeared out of nowhere? Are you running out of disk space at all? Did you try creating a new user account and playing around with that? Use Onxy to run the maintenance and clean up scripts for the system to clear out any dodgy…
  • Well, getting rid of Inquisitor won't hurt. Or at least re-install it as the developer recommends. It'd also be a good idea to dump any QuickTime plug-ins you might have installed. Of course, if you don't want to screw around with all of these th…
  • 104% CPU for Safari huh? Does the video skip like crazy when you quit Safari? Do you have any 3rd party plug-ins for Safari?
  • Open up Activity Monitor.app and get some video content up and running. Check to see if there is anything suspicious that starts chugging up your CPU usage when the framerate drops.
  • Either the proximity sensor, or the ambient light sensor.

  • You can delete the dmg files once you've extracted the contents from them. You should ideally be moving all the applications you have downloaded to the /Applications folder.

  • By the looks of this screenshot they've also tweaked the look of the 3D Dock so that it's darker and has a proper border. It looks much nicer, and more similar to the 2D Dock you get when putting it on the side of the screen. I wonder if they al…

  • Alternatively, just rename the file extension of any mp4 audio file under 40 seconds to ".m4r", and drop it onto iTunes. Bingo - instant ringtone!
