  • I'm running on a DSL line here, but I visited some family in San Francisco a while back and had to use the 56k Modem on my PowerBook G4 to get my e-mail while I was there, and I ran into the same problem. Do you get the error message saying that "c…

  • I had this happen with an older copy of SharePoints after I deleted it, too... I fixed it by going into /Library and deleting the old PreferencePanes directory (if you still have it) and creating an all-new one to replace it. Try that, it might he…

    in Windows Connections Comment by beorn August 2002
  • Thanks! That's what I was hoping wouldn't be the case, but on second thought the worst case scenario would be that Apple would charge full price ($100 or $100) for the update since it is a major update, so therefore $10 or $20 isn't too big of a de…
