Eject key closes finder window
Published (2008-11-18 23:35:00)
I have actually had it a couple times go to the Computer view, with all the drives and the Network item in it after ejecting a USB drive. I haven't been able to figure out what triggers it to go there though.

viewing Windows video on OS X

I wasn't sure on the G4. I knew it was fine on G5, now if I hear from the G3 owners the picture would be complete. Thanks for filling in the gaps in my mind. Bob

I have my new Finder windows set to open the Computer view, but I haven't seen that before. I think I have had some windows return to the hard drive, but I'm not sure. It seems that I can't reproduce this on demand; can't really say. -BMF

Whenever you can it will be fine. Meanwhile, I have found so much conflicting information...........log into the Mac's network address 192.168.1.2 etc. (doesn't work).......try to connect to smb// etc on the Mac and then Map the drive in XP (no luck there) or sharepoints....but too many things are involved with that and only for files (at least it says that in the description) and not the whole drive. Anyway, hope you have an easier...

PPS Viewer
Published (2008-11-19 14:30:00)
Thank you for all of your repLies to my inquiry. Please excuse my ignorance, as I am new to the Mac world. Do I understand that there is a free download available that will allow me to view PowerPoint ? Again, I have a PowerBook G4. I am not sure of the vintage. This leads me to another question. If I have the serial number, is there somewhere that I can go to find out what year my PowerBook is? Again, thanks to you for all of your help....

Hi there. I've got a strange problem with my airport express. I set it up last night to play itunes wirelessly through my stereo, and it is playing through one speaker only. I haven't used it for a while as i have had a problem with my hi-fi (now fixed), but it worked fine previously. It is definitely an airport express issue - have done soft, hard and factory reset, have checked that it is not an itunes problem (it plays fine when...

Eject key closes finder window
Published (2008-11-16 20:21:00)
When I click on the eject symbol in a finder window or highlight an item and press the eject key it will do the eject process and also close the finder window. Running and 2006 20" i-Mac with 10.5.5. It's kind of annoying and I don't know when it first started but somewhere after upgrading to 10.5. Any ideas? Thanks Phil

PPS Viewer
Published (2008-11-15 15:39:00)
I am currently running NeoOffice 2.2.5 on my Powerbook G4. In fact, I just updated it to Patch 4. However, I am using 10.4.11. Don't know if that makes any difference.

Connect Xbox 360 To Imac
Published (2008-11-16 02:15:00)
A little converter like this: http://www.elgato.com/elgato/na/mainmenu/products/250plus/product2.en.html Should do nicely. It is not HD as it only passes through little AV Cables but it is way cheaper than buying a new display. This box has an av input with the cable splitter and a USB running out of the box. It can also be used for watching TV if you wish.

I recently purchased a MAC PowerBook G4. Previously, I was using an HP laptop. My problem is that, more often than not, I am unable to open an E-mail attachment sent to me. I get a message that "The Movie could not be opened. This file is not a movie file." I suspect that the attachment is something that requires a Windows Media viewer. Where do I download the software so ...

OK, first let me just say that I'm not trying to pirate anything! But I've learned how I can stream content from my iMac to my Nintendo Wii to watch on my TV. Basically, using my Wii as a stripped-down Apple TV. But from what I've read, movies purchased from iTunes have DRM and I can't watch those over the Wii. Is there a way to remove DRM from movies that I've purchased from iTunes?...

Right now I've got an iMac 10.4.11. I've been thinking about upgrading it to version 10.5 for various reasons but I need to know if it is worth it. What are the pros and cons of upgrading? Are there any reasons I should stick to what I've got or should I just go for Leopard?

Hi, I used to have a XServe to serve as an image server using Netrestore to image 125 Macs on the network. However, this puts stress on the server. I have some 50 new IMacs to image and I plan to setup 1 Imac as an image server. Could someone suggest how to make an Imac into an image server?
