This is interesting. I had the same thing happen (same machine, same card). Apple actually replaced the mother board on this machine shortly before I put the x800 in, so I am not sure if it was the card or the new motherboard. I eventually put the s…

Thanks guys! I think I will take Marvin's suggestion, although down the line I fear this will cause me some confusion about which vm I am about to open. I guess that isn't a big deal.

A couple months ago I really needed a new computer. My PB G4 (which was out of warrentee) was putting itself to sleep all the time and my G5 was experiencing random kernel panics (which our local "geniuses" replicate). I was thinking I would be putt…

I had a similar problem recently. Someone suggested cleaning the system caches (Cocktail has an option for doing this). Fixed my problem. Actually, I think I also repaired the permissions at the same time, so I can't be sure which step actually fixe…

A month ago I took my G5 into the Apple Store at Stanford Shopping Center, because it was having some random kernel panics. The "Genius" there said they wouldn't look at it unless I could reproduce the problem without the third party RAM. I don't kn…

If I understand you correctly, what you want to do is to rebuild the mailbox you are moving the messages out of. Select the mailbox and choose rebuild from the mailbox menu. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out a good way to rebuild more than one m…

Why don't you want to just throw out your entire iPhoto Library? That will not hurt anything (aside from getting rid of all your pictures which you seem to want to do anyway).

If you hand write the envelopes (and my wife wouldn't let me print them... of course I made her do most of the addressing), you aren't going to need the mail merge. Other than that, everything you mention can be done in Excel or, better yet, OmniOut…

I hate Word.

What is a shared user account?

Sorry to hear about your problems. Depending on your settings I think you should be able to retrieve some of your files by control clicking on the backup file and choosing show package contents. This should give you a folder that shows all the files…

You can register for iChat for free but you get the 60 day .Mac trial with it. After the 60 days have past, you are still registered for iChat. Just ignore the other .Mac features.

Thanks! I'll try your suggestions next time it happens. I don't think it is a Spotlight thing though; I first noticed this in Panther.

I have never had this problem with emptying the trash. However, I have it all the time when I try to unmount disks. lsof helps sometimes but there have been cases when the Finder complains that a disk is in use when lsof doesn't list any file on tha…

What exactly is the problem? The search bar seems to pick up text in the title, comments and keywords. Typing in the search box will result in only images that contain the text you type in one of those fields being displayed. To change the title of …

I agree. If you use iPhoto it is definitely worth it. Much much faster. Full screen editting is also really nice. And if you want to set up a simple website, iWeb is really easy to use. I wasn't particularly impressed with the iMovie update, and I n…
