  • New iPod with dock connector or old iPod without one? My older iPod works just fine with Panther. Apple released an update for the older iPods since Panther. I installed it on my iPod, of course, but I have had no iPod issues....yet... However…
  • Hmmm... Are you referring to the remaining capacity of the disk image File Vault creates or the overall space for the HD? My HD is 40 GB and had 30 GB remaining on it. I have no idea about the capacity of the disk image from File Vault, but it di…
  • Right... I'm taking all of this personally, and my feelings are hurt now. I think I'll type a response while I cry here... Thanks for the informations. Was that hard for you? Now a question... Did you restart you computer a lot over the peri…
  • *smirks* you guys are great... I did not have major problems with this issue, personally. I found problems in Panther and sought to troubleshoot and isolate the issues. It has to be File Vault. I was hoping people who have been shafted by i…
  • Interesting... My observation gets almost zero response here, yet it is getting one rolling over on Apple's discussion forum here: http://discussions.info.apple.com/we...9571@.599b98e4 I guess most of you guys do not care or wanted to stay …
  • I have Panther on my Pismo PowerBook (G3 400 MHZ, 640 MB RAM). It runs great, and it is an amazing improvement. It seems to react faster, overall, but I'd say the response is better in every aspect, also, from the improvements in the Finder and opti…
  • I'm sorry.... I just confirmed that File Vault is the problem, too, unfortunately. After turning File Vault off, my system is in top notch shape with no shifting or deleting of preferences. It took me forever to be able to turn it off and res…
  • I just posted a more detailed (and rant-filled, I suppose) version of this warning in the OS X forum. I just disabled mine after having to create a new keychain and Dock. Grrr... I could be wrong about it, but it is all that it could be, honestl…
  • It is File Vault. If you restart, you will have your preferences scrambled.
  • Thanks ... grabbing it now.
  • Yeah... I had to wipe my system and perform a clean install after erasing my HD. Everything seems to be going well so far. It could have been several things that made my system go crazy. File Vault did not work for me the first time, and I had t…
  • Sounds like a reasonable explanation of it. I'm not sure what it is doing, myself. I have noticed the same box when I shut down or start up my machine, time to time. I did it the first time. My prefs were shot and my system went crazy... never h…
  • Not to up on the terminal but for basic system monitoring type things (that may be basic, also, but not for me, unfortunately), and so no, I have not tried it. But it could work to delete items on Apple's server (on my iDisk)?
  • Thanks for the advice... I am the administrator of my computer. How do I do it? The files are invisible files located ON my iDisk. I can get to those files easily enough, but I cannot mess with them at all so far. I'd appreciate a good work-a-r…
  • Interesting... I just finished a clean install of Panther after experiencing a problem very similar to what you described here. I believe the problem came from File Vault also, but I am uncertain why. My preferences kept changing and resetting th…

  • Well, I see no one had a clue, either, but a few of you guys viewed my problem without any form of thoughtful comment. Luckily enough for me, I came up with an easy, if obvious, work-a-round to the problem. Anyone else having issues with FileVau…
  • Works great for me. Perfectly, in fact, so far... And I'm on a PowerBook G3!! I missed the archive option, at first, too. It is under the option button either right before or just after you select the disk. Otherwise, it will just update your o…
  • So what frequency detection equipment you using to tell the difference? It is beyond human detection, and so we know it cannot be your ears... Matter of fact....due to how CD recordings are processed until just recently, the ACC format will of…
