did the iso 9660 data mode xa but to no avail. i did however get a premade bin image to work using toast. seems like a partial solution. i think i will get a cheap pc eventually fo…

a little bit of an update on my problem. okay, so i still havent found software for mac that will burn cd's for my ps2 media player (mode2/xa, iso level 2, no joliet, disc at once)…

Acrobat does this of course. If you stick the PDFs together using MergePDF the generated PDF has the filenames of the original PDFs as bookmarks in the final version, but I'm not …

Is there a way to add authors and title so I can search scanned scientific articles with Spotlight? Is there another way to do this other than Acrobat?

Yes, Acrobat of course. I didn't mention that my goal was to edit the bookmarks without buying a copy of Acrobat. It's hard to justify the price when we need a tool to accomplish…

Yeah, same for me, actually. I don't need Acrobat to create pdfs, that's what pdflatex is for So does anybody know of alternatives?

Search these forums for "Chicken of the VNC"

Also, if you're the least bit paranoid, search for "ssh tunnel" here or "ssh tunnel mac" on the rest of the web.

Try changing the "By default, join" selection to "A specific network", type in the SSID of your network, the WEP or WPA key as applicable, and you should be set.

I did as you said, no change. Question: This wireless card I have is an 802.11g while my basestation and eMac are using 802.11b My understanding was that g is backwards compati…

Well I'm not sure what the issue was, or what that AirPort icon meant (above) but after a reset and running an Apple Update I seem to be right with the gods once again. Let's hope…

Glad it worked. I still have random issues on a 12" PowerBook where it will periodically not find my wireless network (even with SSID broadcasting turned on). Others have reported …

You cannot install an OS which is older than the OS which was in the box of your eMac. So the only thing you could try is to upgrade to 10.3.9, which is the last update of 10.3. If…

Why don't you just expedite the move to 10.4? Since OSs older than 10.4 will no longer run on new machines, you'll have to stop purchasing new machines (a pain!) or hack operating …

They want to have a homogeneous network. Under these circumstances, it is not possible.

I understand that, I really do, but there's a point where you just have to bite the bullet and upgrade. Both Panther (10.3.9) and Tiger (10.4.0) are nearly a year old. While I know…

Thanks for the advice... I have to disagree with the opinion that a less than in-the-box-system cannot be used, because I have done this. And it wasn't hacking... it just worked.…

Sound advice... though we are locked down pretty tight in many, many aspects, and we are not complacent as far as security is concerned. If anything, we are too secure for many cur…

The answer is: 160GB drives are now available.

And you're going to install them free of charge in our iBooks and PowerBooks? Where do we sign up?
