Hello,

This is a nice post / topic.

A Mac should work with any ISP that a PC works with, unless you have one that specifically does something Windows only, such as needing Microsoft or Citirix...

Hello,

I agree that iDVD is the answer to your needs. Gotta be careful when you burn a disk... sometimes you are just burning a bunch of files (a la data backup) and other times, you are making...

Hello,

Fetch has been used and adored by many.

Mac OS X? OS 7-9?

Hello Lizzie,

Welcome to DaniWeb.

I use a program called Amadeous II that was developed by hairerSoft.com It is shareware, and I think it cost $40 or so. But what it allows me to do is input...

Hello,

I use a SONY DVD burner that is USB and Firewire based. Of course, the Firewire solution would be faster, but I have an older Powerbook that only has USB. I have had no problems using the...

Hello,

You are certainly open to trying a different brand of RW media. I know that certain CD-R in audio format will not work in my truck's player... but will work in other computers just fine. ...

Hello,

I have no experience burning with RW from my Mac. I have never had a problem with R or DVD-R though.

It is possible that you are ejecting the disks before the burn is committed to them....

Hello,

It is my understanding that Macro code in Windows will work just fine in Macintosh. Matter of fact, it is one of the areas on a Mac that are prone to "infection" -- a windows macro virus...

Hello,

OS X will not work with 8.6 as the Classic agent. Sorry about that. You need to be running 9.x to have it function properly.

Now, the larger question that I have is what version of 9...

Hello,

I am not sure how to do this with Office / Excel. You can try OpenOffice / NeoOffice J, and see if that export will solve the problem.

Otherwise, see if VMS will support another input...

Hello,

I use a program called Adium that allows me to do AIM and Yahoo and MSN and others. It is just like gaim under Linux and Windows. Getting Gaim to work under Mac OS X can be a pain in the...

Hello,

Are you using Acrobat as a printer, or are you distilling? I found it best with Quarkie to save the file as a postscript output, and then run the file through distiller to make the .pdf
...

Hello,

It may help here a bit for you let us know what you are looking for. What are the requirements of the word processor? What does it need to do for you? How are you going to support it?
...

Hello,

Yeah, be careful on the wording there. I know Macs an aweful lot, but do not have the $$ to invest in toys such as iPods and flatscreens, so I miss getting hands-on experience with them. ...

Hello,

Mac OS 9 has a lot faster look and feel on my 333 than OS X does. I have a feeling when I upgrade to a new laptop, that the old one will return to OS 9, or I will install YellowDog Linux...

Hello,

Yep, that is it... the printer needs to be setup for OS 9. You might find it easier to reboot your laptop as an OS 9 box (instead of running it as Classic) and setup your printers that...

Hello,

My experience with Virtual PC is from the version 5 days, and using Windows 2000.

It was too slow to be functional for me on my 333 MHz PowerBook G3... but it did work.

Virtual PC...

Hi,

I would not be the quickest to jump onto the Norton bandwagon.... I have seen cases where Norton fell apart in the Windoze world, and the antivirus just seems clunky on the Mac.

Also note...

Hello,

I am using a program called RagTime. It is free for non-commercial use, and is Mac, Windoze, and OS 9 capable. You might want to search it out and see if it will do what you want it to....

Hello,

Oh wow.. 8.6 has been done for a few years now.

You might need to rebuild the desktop in order to get the program to fire off properly. It is also possible that support for those...

Hello,

When you refer to the C: or the D: in the Windoze world, you are actually looking at a local partition of hard drive space, or a network volume.

Macs see ANY storage space as a...

Hello Diane,

What is the website that you are having so much trouble with?

It has been a while since I have been in OS 9 for regular work... have migrated my things to OS X already. I do...

Hello,

I wish I could be helpful here, but do not own an iPod. One of these days... unless we get one as a wedding gift...

Hello,

Not all .dmg files are available via CD-ROM. He could have purchased it from an online vendor, and now moving it to the final resting place.

For example, I have high speed internet....

Hi,

Netscape 7 should still be out there, along with traditional Mozilla.

Running a browser in Classic is not the smooth solution, either.

If you are not able to find Netscape 6/7...

Hello,

I would migrate from IE to another browser -- on both Windoze and Mac. IE on Mac is depreciated, meaning they do not work on it anymore to upgrade the software package.

...

Hello,

Without having a copy around, it would be difficult for me to bugshoot it. Yes, it is possible there is an extension conflict running around somewhere.

I wonder if the Lotus...

Hello,

I have not *known* anyone to be using 1-2-3 anymore, especially on a Mac. Pleasure to meet you.

TO be honest, the best way is to get ahold of the installer, and re-install the software....

Hello,

What is Aquisition?

Christian

Hello,

Are you logged in as a user with administrator permissions? If so, you might need to do two things: enable the root user (and use it to change the permissions) and/or run a permissions...

Hello Donna,

I am not aware of any, probably because I have not looked. A number of Windoze IE faults are not available (thank god!) on the Macintosh because of the differences in hardware and...

Hello,

I prefer Firefox as it is clean and efficient, and cross platform. Firefox tends to render the same across the OS's, from what I can tell. I also adore the popup blocker.

Christian

Hello,

I have not found one for the Mac OS X, and to be honest, do not trust partition magic on Windoze either. I feel that anything that works the filesystem at this level is just an accident...

Hello,

A different program is: Limewire. But I fully agree with GordonFi that the legal reasonings should prevent you from even wanting to dive into this type of arrangement.

A lot of...

Hello,

I would check and see if CodeWarrior has an IDE for Java on the mac.

Christian

Hello,

If you are seeing this, I would save the data NOW, and format NOW. You might have some sort of timebomb virus ticking away in there waiting to grab you when you least expect it. Yes,...

Hello,

It is possible that the program installed materials into your system folder tree, perhaps into some of the library files.

I would also agree that if your emails to the author are...

Hello,

Yes, that does seem slow. DO you see the delays in other programs? What kind of computer do you have? Did this just start happening?

Please let us know more.

Christian

AH!

Well, I would do a few things here first.

1) Modify the shell script on the server to not only copy the file, but compress it. My guess is that the .sql file is a big text database...

Hello,

I like the idea of compiling it and seeing if it works for you too. I don't think you need the .sig file with it.

I have also used shell scripts with lynx to obtain files via...
