okay here's what's up.
I am trying to set up a small message board and perhaps a blog for a
site. nothing all that fancy or big. I understand that both should be
possible using sql and php.

I'm on OS 10.2.8, and suddenly today, whenever I press the Shift, Apple or
Option key, I get a little clicking noise and the symbol for whichever key I'm
pressing flashes up on the screen. I presume I pressed some sort of shortcut key
without realising, can anyone tell me how to ...

i'd like to be able to burn a cdr (from within iPhoto) that is windows
friendly. now if i click on "burn" from within iPhoto i get a cdr that

I have an old Syquest bakup storage machine.
Is there software available online that allows me to mount it onto my
desktop? I have it on floppies but my new (old) iMac Sys9 doesn't take
floppies.

I use OS9 and am forced by some websites to use Internet Explorer.
Obviously, the less such people know about me the better, so I've been
trying to get rid IE's cookies, apparently without success.  Currently
there are no files, visible or invisible, with the word "cookie" in

I can't find the status (how much ink remaining in each) of the ink
cartridges for our Epson C84.

Greetings. I am pretty happy, most of the time, with Safari 1.2.3
(125.9) as my usual browser under Panther .3.5 but there is one weird
thing that happens from time to time that I would like to stop.

My wife's Wallstreet Powerbook is starting up with the "NO" symbol
(circle with a slash through it" when booting into the OS X (10.2.8)
partition. This machine and setup has been very dependable and I'm at a
bit of a loss to diagnose and fix this problem. I ran DiskWarrior and it

I'm wondering how could i switch the default internet browser from
safari to firefox. I'm actually in travel with only a dialup connection
and noticed that safari was incredibly slow over dialup ! Whereas
firefox opens pages before they are totaly downloaded.

In OSX, I would like to get the same effect as the Windows shortcut

and would like to hit the keyboard combo that will allow me to select

Hi gang,
Can someone tell me how to get Pagemill to see .html files while
running in Classic? It seems to see .jpg and .gif files, but that's
about it. Thanks so much for your help.

i've just started to try using safari. i'm a recent convert from windows
xp, and have been used to using firefox as my web browser.
one i bought my iBook, i used firefox.
now,i'm starting to like the interface and snapback features of safari.

My journey from windows is almost complete. I have a new 12" iBook and
I'm loving it *so* much.
I'm missing 1 things though. It's the ability to tag an MP3 file via the
 Internet like I had in Windows Media Player.
