since the Schubert plugin doesn't work on Intel (without crippling
Safari) I have to make do with the built-in PDF support. Which
apparently doesn't even cache. Is there a hidden preference for that?

Hi--I'm using Tiger on a G3 900 ibook, but Garageband won't even open.  
Does it work on G3s?
Thanks.

The rounded corners to the coloured labels are really ugly for
small short one line file names. I suppose this is set in stone

Is it possible to transfer Mac Leopard to another Mac.

OK, this keeps happening, and i can't figure out why.
I have MTNW's windows 'locked' by clicking the little icon.
Often, but with no apparent rhyme or reason, the message list or, more

Dear friends:
Do you have any opinion on Xslimmer or any similar program?
The purpose of these programs is to cut the code of the architecture
you don't use (PPC on Intel machines and vice versa) on all the

I recently bought an Intel iMac, running Leopard 10.5.2, to replace my
iMac G4, running Tiger 10.4.11, and used Migration Assistant to transfer
all my programs and files. Everything works on the new iMac except for
the copy of Photoshop Elements 2.0 that came with my Epson ...

Compared to Entourage, I find MT-NewsWatcher to have many more features
that I like. (I am using OS 10.5.2.) Mostly, I have run into minor
quirks that I can tolerate.

So, what am I missing?

I followed the instructions on the Gmail site to set this up.
Previously I used POP and it worked fine. Also, I have IMAP Gmail set
up on my iPhone and that works just fine.  It's just through Mail that
it doesn't seem to work.

I had an interesting situation.  Double-clicking a thumbnail produced
the dreaded exclamation point.  I checked and discovered the image was
actually still in the library but the database had lost track of it.  I
restored it by dragging it back into iPhoto and deleting the bad ...

Thanks all. I unplugged the Firewire cable and reinserted it and the
backup disk choices magically appeared.
Thanks again.
