I include the Bookmarks in my monthly back-ups.  Every time I open that
profiles file there are hundreds of bookmark lists, seemingly one for
each time FireFox was opened and closed.

Only Adobe would charge $160 for an upgrade from Acrobat Pro to the soon to
be released version 8 and at the same time charge $160 for an upgrade from
Creative Suite 2 to Creative Suite 2.3, the weirdness being that the Creative
Suite upgrade includes, in addition to the Acrobat ...

Hi, I'm setting up Endnote 9 for a colleague, and have run into some
simple things that I can't figure out how to do.  (I use LaTeX and
BibTeX for my own work).
1. We use the author/date style of citations.  Many journals want

I've got the molst recent retrospect, running under OS 10.4.7.  After a month
or so of good behavior, it has started popping up daily remonders that I have
never backed up to the network.  I haven't, and don't intend to.
I have no idea why this started, and can't find a way to turn ...

Hello Mac Peoples!
I've been using my first mac, an Intel MacBook for about 3 months now,
and school is back in.  I've been using OmniOutliner, which came with
my mac, to take notes in class.  This worked great until today, when I

I am trying to use GraphicConverter v5.4 to convert a bunch of images
to a certain file format and size. I'm on OS X 10.4.
Using Convert&Modify in the File menu I can select the images in the
source folder, select a destination folder, tell it to save in PICT

I'm using iDVD to burn some QT movies to DVD. I used FotoMagico to put
some slides together with music, and I used QT to string together some

iDVD, the burn to DVD. When played on the computer, it's okay, but when

I'm on Mac OS X (Intel) and whenever I click "open" for a pdf, it opens

can just take a quick glance at it, and not have to save a copy! How

In my ongoing effort to get some non-English charsets to work correctly
on several machine, I ran across a curious failure in the mozilla-suite
browsers on my Mac (10.4, latest updates, yada ...).  Several Chinese
characters that display correctly in Safari and Opera, and even in a

Anyone familiar with both that can advise me as the differences between

I recently upgraded my ITunes software.  The next time I hooked up my
IPOD it erased the disc, losing about 7000 MP3 tunes from my pod.
These were all transfered from DVD's so I was backed up but had to take
countless hours to reinstall them.

Hi all, my pictures that a lot of space (3 MB for each picture), and I
need to make them smaller  or with less resolution. The edit features in
iLife 06 doesn't seem to give this option- at least not that I can see
in the menu. Could some kind soul please let me know how pictures ...

I just started with a digital camera. My computer is a Mac. So far, I
have viewed the JPEG photos with Preview. It seems to work fine, but
each time I download pictures, my computer wants to open iPhoto; I just
say no, but being unfamiliar with iPhoto I also don't know what I am
