SMC worx great for me in leopard. How full is your 100 GB HD? I noticed that leopard uses a LOT more Virtual memory (almost 32 GBs for me!!) instead of the 10 or so used in tiger. If your HD is relatively slow, you will not be able to have much V…

I had a problem once where I messed up some of my folders and some things similar to what you did and going to 'force quit..." and relaunching the finder did the trick for me.

Sys Prefs ?> Keyboard + Mouse ?> Keyboard tab uncheck the 'Use F1-F12' for software features instead of hardware ones.

Now to download a 'tiger' icon set to get rid of those horrid steps back in time they call folders.

There is this nifty program called 'Macdrive' that lets you access your HFS drive from a windows setting such as XP. I use it for iTunes and for my background pics; I do a couple of other odd things with it as well, but not as often.

So how does it work? I go to automator, click 'record' (or something similar) and then perform the actions in the automation script? Because that would actually let me use it as I have tried automator in tiger and have given up because of the time…
