Apple's Mail (I'm running 10.4.2; Mail 2.0.2) loses it's sound output,
from time to time. If I quit-relaunch it comes back, but otherwise it's
annoying, because I lose my mail alerts. It's the same for the default
mail sound, as well as special 'rules' where I have particular sounds

We have a new iBook and are editing a 40 page document in AW6. We need
to file out a copy in MSWord for PC. When "Saving as" document - Word
97-2000 the MacLinksPlus translator gets called and it creates a
document of about half the size - from 12Mb to about 6Mb. When I try to

I am trying to run the most recent version of CD Spin Doctor (bundled with Toast
Titanium 7.0.2) on a G4 iBook running Tiger, with a gig of RAM.
Every time I try to play an AIFF, Spin Doctor crashes.
Any workarounds/fixes? Or beyond that, are there any other waveform editors for

With Tiger, I just moved from Entrourage to Mail. One thing I am
disappointed in is junk mail filtering. Entourage seemed to catch about
95% of the junk mail I received, while Mail seems to catch no more than
50% of it. This seems remarkably poor performance.

I started using the G5 iMac in February.  Installed Classic, iLife 05
applications, Microsoft Office, a couple of other applications, and all
system and applications updates.  I repaired permissions after every
application installation or software update.  It has a 17 inch screen ...

I really only want wclock and wstock up there, because when I run
various programs they get squeezed out. I would rather have the chat,
network and phone icons dropped out. Can I do this?

Hello. I have a little video that is out of sync with the audio. When I
import the movie into my Imovie it will not let me access the "extract
audio" function as well as others. It is grayed out. So...Do I have to
upgrade the Imovie of the Quicktime or something?

I have a question, is it possible to retrive password from a .plist
file? I'm talking here about yahoo messenger. Does any file contains
that information? How to read it?
cheers

I see tons of references on Google to use a program called MacARC to
open a .ARC file, but no clue where to actually download it. Where do I
find this vaporware?
I know stuffit expander is suppost to be able to do the job, but I can't

I'd like to know how to type modifier key marks such as option,
command, shift, tab, delte..etc, which are often seen when describing
shortcuts.
Is there a way to do that?

I am new to iMovie, and been spending some time on a "practice
project".
I have imported an MPEG4 home movie, which I am now editing.
A couple questions:

Back in the old days I could do this very easily.  But with fireFox I
cannot save these files to my hard disk without QuickTime pro.  Is there
a way around this?  I am out of work at the moment and cannot afford
QuickTime pro.  And besides I only scarcely need to save a sound or
