I originally posted this message on comp.sys.mac.apps, but have not received
any replies.  Possibly I am having some type of system-related problem.  I
would appreciate any suggestions.
Until fairly recently I've been able to access the help files in The Gimp

He's already got like 50$.... keep it rolling!

I've been trying to duplicate the internal disk of my PowerBook to a
disk image on a Firewire drive using hdiutil ... so I issued
hdiutil create -srcdevice /dev/disk0s3 /Volumes/Archiv/disk0s3.dmg
and got the following:

hi. i installed a program, went to the applications folder, and then
tried to make an alias of the .app file. for some reason it's greyed out
on the menu bar.. under permissions something was locked. i unlocked it,
but i still couldn't make the alias. any suggestions on what to ...

I have been using an external HD to back up a variety of data. Since one
folder contains my financial data, I decided to try to lock it up so only I
could access it. I have been making the folder inaccessible, but anyone can
tweak "Get info" and get right into the files.

A fine example. So I ordered iLife 06 to get RAW image support in
iPhoto for my G4 powerbook last month. Well, this month Apple announced
iLife 08. Somewhat miffed, I called Apple sales to complain and see If
I could get the upgrade at a discount. Well the nice lady on the phone

Got my old Mac Classic out of the cupboard yesterday and tried to get
the external scsi zip drive to work. Well, the computer wouldn't even

I got a MBP 2 days ago and , so far, it's gone pretty
smoothly.  
My first problem showed up tonight when i tried scanning
from photoshop.

I was running tcpdump yesterday to see if I could
catch Microsoft Office (Mac) phoning home, and I
saw a steady stream of 802.11 config packets on
the Ethernet port.

Since the Mac is now using Intel, and a typical hard drive, ram etc, why
can't one take the MAC operating system and put it on lets say a Dell or
Toshiba?

May I configure diferent Inboxes for Mail app under OS X 1.4.10 as
