safari(s)
Hi all, wondering if there is a simple solution to this conundrum: here at work i run safari 1.0 beta2 (v74) on OS X 10.2.6 on a 1Ghz G4 Desktop at home i run safari 1.0 beta2 (v74) on OS X 10.2.6 on a 15 Powerbook G4 867 Safari at work has Tabs, Safari at home does not. Just last night i downloaded Safari 1.0 beta2 (v74) again, still no tabs... what am i missing?! Do i have to turn them on or is it a system-wide preference thing? thanks! Greg
Re: LC520 again
Thanks Bob I tried SCSIProbe 5.2, but it keeps coming up with This version of SCSIProbe requires Apple SCSI Manager 4.3. I had a search for this last night but could not find it. I also tried SCSI Find Devices but it kept coming up error -192 when I double clicked on the program icon. I then found and tried Marathon SCSI Utility and tried that. That shows the hard drive is at SCSI ID 7 and the CD ROM is at SCSI ID 3, but when I tried to test or verify the HD it keeps saying things like sector failed as it does it's tests. I have the feeling the HD is dead!! Regards Daniel F. On 03/06/2003 17:00, Bob Howells [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Daniel It seems like you are stuck between a rock and a hard place !

MP3 Tool for OS X
The non-profit radio station where I work (LiquidFM) uses a PC to run the station automatically when there is no DJ in the studio. However all the audio production / preparation is done on a G4 (OS X) before the data is transferred over. Licensed audio in MP3, AIFF and WAV formats are extracted / edited / labeled / cataloged before going in the database. Personally I find iTunes a little cumbersome to use - perhaps not as clean as I would like. I thought SoundJam was better! I'm not a stranger to bells whistles as most of our production work / editing is done under ProTools. Can anyone *personally* recommend another tool? Requirements : easy MP3 ID tag viewing / management, CDDB / freedb lookup, easy extraction to MP3 or optional conversion, batch renaming based on ID tags, record to MP3 on the fly useful. I used MP3 Rage a while back and seemed to like that. Cheers, Antony. -- == = = = = Antony N. Lord = http://antonylord.com = = [EMAIL PROTECTED] = Perth, Western Australia = = = = ==

Re: Remember JpegView?
One of my all time favorites was a little image viewing app JpegView. One of its greatest strengths was its ability to do slide shows. You could point it at a folder with hundreds of images (importantly folder with sub folders) and it would display them to you, randomly too. I havent been able to find anything similar under OSX. There was JPEGDeux which lacks the slide show feature. I had another slide show app which just barfed if you had more than 50 or so pictures. Anyone find a *useful* slideshow app under X? (Oh and iPhoto doesn't count, I much prefer my images not to be copied to the iPhoto library). Screen Effects can display a folder of images randomly as a screen saver. There are hot corners to turn the screen saver slide show on.

Help with translating some documents
Hi I have been sent a number of files in Lotus WordPro 97 format (.lwp) and am having a sh*t of a time opening them. (from a Commonwealth government department, no less) Anyway I have so far tried Word v X, Nisus Writer Express, Mariner Write etc in OS X. Nothing but text hidden among the gibberish. Same if opened in BBEdit 7 (even after zapping gremlins). MacLinkPlus (OS X) doesn't want to know about the file format. I also tried Word 2000 in VPC and no joy there either. I contacted the sender and whether true or not, they are convinced that the files can't be saved as something else (eg .doc .rtf) Anyone have any further ideas. Some of the files are charts I think, so I really would like more than a straight text version. Thanks Larry

(Oh and iPhoto doesn't count, I much prefer my images not to be copied to the iPhoto library). Unless I'm hallucinating really badly this time, JPEGDeux does have a slideshow feature -- that's what all the stuff under the Slideshow menu is about. It even supports slide transitions and precaching of images (which is nice if you have a fair bit of RAM). I haven't had any trouble using v1.7b with a few dozen images, though I haven't tried hundreds. And it does have a Recursively scan subdirectories option. What it does leave out is the ability to just open images, independently of a slideshow. It's interface isn't as nice as the simple one that JPEGView had, but it works fairly well. And maybe the more recent versions have been improved a bit. -Ry

Untimed ISDN calls
Hi all, Not strictly Mac related, but may be good news for some of you anyway. Telstra Countrywide have just announced (though not released) untimed ISDN calls and will be making available a Bigpond ISDN account. 128k at comparable to ADSL prices is the statement. If like me, you're on an exchange unlikely to get ADSL, or you're too far away, or just on a pair gain system, this may allow you to get broadbandish speeds for broadbandish prices. I have our Countrywide rep chasing details for me at the moment - if anyone is interested, let me know and I'll email you when I get the important stuff like prices and download limits! Cheers, Meg
