Thank you for kindly responding, mikegrok. I did indeed do what you suggested here. Sadly Firefox still crashes. I cannot get help from the Firefox people, either. They don't answer everyone's questions there. I don't know what to do. I still need Firefox, even though I've had to use Safari just to stay online. If you can think of anything, or if anyone out there can suggest something, I'd sure appreciate any further...

Does that make sense? Yes. That's the correct way to install an update. By the way, I doubt that it helps to download a fresh copy of Firefox each time you want to reinstall it. You should be able to reinstall from a ".dmg" file of...

also - i connected my digital camera straight to the monitor via USB and it doesn't display. I've never tried that before with my camera, but it seems like if the monitor is powered on, connecting it to the camera would cause the pictures stored in the camera to show up on the display.

Etresoft and Micp, I plugged into the router, and then directly into the modem (Quest DSL) via ethernet, no change at all. The Macbook is headed to the Apple service guy. Consensus here is DNS, but I'm wary to mess with anything I don't understand. Thanks for your help. MacBook Mac OS X (10.5.8)

There is a folder for files shared among all users on the system in your hard drive, Users folder. if you want to share a folder, go to apple menu, system preferences, sharing (3rd row) and enable file sharing. If the computer to share it with is windows, make sure to enable smb file sharing. early 2008 17inch Macbook pro high res Mac OS X (10.6.2)

I found that indeed it was my Brother Printer that was connected to the network showing up as a PC for some odd reason. If you have a printer connected to the network try disconnecting the printer and then restarting the computer. If it doesn't show up then it's probably the printer.

If you Go to Applications->Utilities->Network Utility under "Info" you can select a network interface and it tells you the speed of the network link. Im not sure if this is gonna give you the information you want, but its worth a shot.

was it working before? because my home workgroup isn't working anymore.
When you access your windows from ur mac, u have to enter the AD for windows. Maybe that's your problem? And make sure you have smb file sharing enabled on the mac by going into system preferences/file sharing/options and check smb.
You should try and ping ur window machine using the network ultities to ...

Get a router. You have options for a wired router or wireless. It need not be expensive. Each Mac will be assigned its own IP address and can access the internet independently of each other.

Try booting up from your Leopard install disc. If that still results in a dark screen, it rules out OS X as the cause. You might also wish to post in the Power Mac G4 or G5 display forums.

Let me please restate the question.
i've recently started noticing an unknown pc server under 'shared' in the sidebar. as far as im aware my wireless network is secure so i'm not sure as to why it's there or if it could be potentially unsafe. Any ideas on how to get rid of this? I tried to unmount it but not luck. Is this something to worry about? I read a post about it maybe being a ...

Welcome to the forums!
No, not normal, this shouldn't happen.
Try deleting Safari's plist file (but first close Safari):

What is your RDC client talking to? To the best of my knowledge, Mac OS X does not provide an RDC server, so I suspect you are using a 3rd party product. Have you talked to your RDC server vendor about this?
