you don't need to..

you can do archive and install with leopard and it will leave everything as it was

Even gets you back on wifi without entering your wpa key! bloody clever if you ask me!

Is there anyway to reset mail at all and start over again? I keep getting this weird error message and non of my emails are coming through on my mac? They come through ok on my BB so i presume the problem lies with my iMac.



Thanks!

Just go to Mail -> Preferences -> Accounts -> Delete the current dot mac account and then start again. Everything should be automated from there in.

Sorry to inform you standard hotmail doesnt support pop you need the paid service, there is another agregator that you can use to pull it but it all becomes a little messy personal I would either forward your mail to gmail and thats you sorted.

oh help! help! help!

as of this morning i couldn't open either illustrator (10) or photoshop (7) on glorious g5 and have been right around the houses trying to get it sorted.

first i headed straight for disk utilities, found a few errors and repaired the hard disk.

next i reinstalled the offending software, to no avail. have had a thorough search on the net, but haven't found anything that gives me the slightest clue as to what's happened.

of course these adobe versions are pretty old and there isn't support for them anymore.

any ideas?... anyone!

A bit more information would be great, are you running Leopard if so then if you not running the latest photoshops etc they not going to run on Leopard.

If everything was working a few days before can u recall installing anything that might have caused this problem? You might want to repair the permission by booting into disk utility from the install cd, if you dont know how to do this here u go.

Restart hold on C and select your OSX Install cd, proceed up to the point where u can select options at the top of the install bar, and you will find disk utility run it from there and it might help.

i'm on tiger (10.4.10) and yes, before the w'end everything was fine. nothing downloaded or installed recently, no fonts, no freeware.

however, when i launch photoshop it hangs at "reading fonts…" illustrator doesn't even get started! then in both cases i get the "report to apple box".
