Try trashing all of your cookies and browsing history. After I did that, I was able to use MacNN again.

I'm having the same problem here and over at the MacNN forums. Disabling Javascript [I]does[/I] allow the forums to load, but any script-dependent actions or function, of course, will also be disabled. I'm only having the issue in Firefox, though. S…

Yeah...asking attendees at a Photoshop conference if they plan on upgrading to CS3 is pretty much a self-fulfilling prophecy sort of thing. Not only are they obviously rabid faithful, they obviously have the necessary spare cash to afford the upgrad…

I believe VLC can play mpeg-2 content. And it's free.

About the only problem I run across with any regularity are webpages created by folks using Microsoft Frontpage. And then it's usually that they just display like cr@p in anything other than IE/Win. Especially the tiny, tiny type that those people l…

About the only thing in the Services menu I might use from time to time is Grab...but you have to launch Grab yourself to make it active. It's always grayed-out in the Services menu. For some reason, Call of Duty appears in my Services menu, too.…

Since I already had it, I just use my Canon mini-DV cam via firewire. Works great.

It isn't just Flash content that makes Safari gag. Pages with a lot of simple animated gifs cause the CPU usage to spike, too. The AI post page, for instance, always makes my G5's fans roar like it's about to take off. All those #@*& smilies.

I use my Canon DV camera as a webcam almost daily. Firewire connection is the key. For it to work you can't have a tape in. The camera defaults to demo mode then. Works great.

I just want OSX to stop losing the printer. Seems like, if I don't print something every day, OSX loses contact with the printer. It's really frustrating how many times I've had to wrestle with stopped jobs, even though the printer is always up and …

WYSIWYG should be a lot better than what it has become. I remember, back in the day, working in Adobe PageMill and thinking "This is how it should work!" Then WYSIWYG flew off the tracks...

Currently, my fave is GarageBand. It's just fun.

That's been a big empty spot in Mac software...a cheap and easy website creation tool. Yes, Frontpage creates some of the worst, non-standards websites this side of Word's HTML output, but what else is there, really, short of hand-coding HTML? Sadly…

I've always been amazed that, when it comes to schools and corporations making these decisions, it is often the IT people's ignorance that drives the decision-making. I have it at my job, too. When I selected a Mac for my workstation, the IT guy …

You aren't running a webcam via Yahoo messenger, are you? I've noticed that Yahoo will often crash when quitting the webcam, or when quitting the messenger altogether after having used the webcam. Otherwise, if I run Yahoo without the webcam, it'…

As a Skype user, I can, indeed, confirm that you can use Skype to call regular phones, and the sound quality is very good. Of course, that quality is dependent on your connection but, to date, I've only had one wonky connection to a land-line (and t…

I enjoyed it quite a bit. One of the reasons I look forward to a Pixar release, is the short subject that accompanies the feature. They tend to be demonstration pieces of some new technology or approach. The one with "Incredibles" ("Boundin'"?) se…
