I'm about to purchase a copy of Windows to install with Parallels and run
just one Windows programme - Crossword Compiler - on my 17" MacBook Pro.
Otherwise, I'm totally committed to Mac OS.
I assume there's no reason to buy anything more expensive than Windows XP

All of a sudden, I can't edit documents -- can't insert any text. I've
tried creating new docs, changing fonts. I can cut and paste into a
document, and can type numbers with the num-lock on. I've got a backup
login which uses the same global application, and it works fine. I've

I have a printer icon on the desktop and I can drop a file on it and it
prints fine, but if I open the file and select print I get an error.  I
haven't tried all my apps that print but every one I have tried produced
this error.

Eudora has been working perfectly for some time on my OS X 10.4.10
system (G4 PPC), but yesterday, for no apparent reason, launching the
program brought up a message that said the Junk filters would be
disabled till a valid registration code was entered. I entered my

Two days ago my iBook G4 running Panther died of some purely electronic
disease (not a HD problem; just wouldn't boot most of the time, or stay
running when it did boot).  
Purchased a new MacBook with Tiger and managed to recover essentially

I have NFR copies of the following:
Logic Pro 7 (dongle included)
Reason music station software (new in box, still shrinkwrapped)

I installed Ting, hoping that one of its features would be a quick
screen printer.   That feature was missing, so I looked in
applications, and used searchlight for Ting - but I couldn't find it.
How do I uninstall it?   How do I trace it down to find out how to

In a progress bar window (on my OS 10.4.10 computer) "powered by
Stuffit..." yesterday, I was unpacking an archive of about 100MB
and it read "Time remaining: About 2023406814 hours" when it was

I am at last having to address the AppleWorks 5 to 6 downgrade. My key
AppleWorks 5 macro, used to print envelopes, needs converted to
applescript. Currently the user simply selects the text to appear on the

Have a clipping that opens on one of my screens that I cannot
work out how to control. The title bar is disappeared off the top
and the resize control is below the bottom? What a pesky thing.
Usually I can drag and control windows but not this one? All I
