Full HD backup of OS 10.4
I'm looking for recommendations for backup software and hardware for my wife's Mac G5 (OS 10.4). She was previously backing up to DVDs using Retrospect 6, but her full backups (200GB) were using about 15 disks and taking many hours to perform. I purchased a external USB hard drive but the (full) backup are still ... 18 Jul 2008 14:26

Registration lost
In this case it's Cocktail: when launched there was an Apple message warning me this was downloaded from the internet, albeit six months ago. Then a Cocktail message saying I needed to register, which I had done a long time ago, and used it several dozens of times since without incident. It has lost touch with... 15 Jul 2008 11:16

Once that process was complete it demanded to be connected to iTunes by displaying an image of a USB cable and an arrow pointing to the word "iTunes." OK, I connected to iTunes and it went to the store (took a while due to heavy traffic). And that's where it re... 12 Jul 2008 22:46

Hello, under OS9 I have a strange problem: whenever I open the chooser and select "Laserwrite8" I get a list of printers.

Apple screwed up the iPhone 2.0 launch.
Should have released the 2.0 SW with the iTunes 7.7 release. This way, all the EXISTING iPhone owners could have upgraded (and most importantly ,re-activated the phone through the itunes store) BEFORE the MAD CRUSH of people trying to activate the 3G phones. Now I've got a brick until the iTunes store has th... 11 Jul 2008 13:02

> I'm running OS 10.5.4, and also have an AOL account, which I use OS X's Mail app to read eamil from. When some people send me emails with multiple attachments (photos, .pdf's, .doc's) the first attachment is fine, but the remaining attachments are messed up or corrupted.

Mail App Anomaly - It Thinks My Email Address Belongs to Other People?
A few weeks ago I started receiving emails that looked like they were addressed to other people I know. But on checking the email address, I found that it was my email address - Mail was just putting somebody else's name beside it. Just now I tried to address an email to myself. I typed in my own email addr... 11 Jul 2008 18:11
