Mail quitting unexpectedly

Hi folks, Has anyone else had this problem ? Since installing OSX 10.1.2 MAIL keeps quitting unexpectedly whilst in use. It has become very frustrating and happens every couple of minutes on average ... sometimes 2 or 3 times in a minute. In frustration I downloaded the Eudora for OSX Beta t

Hi everyone, Well, my sister finally got herself a new computer (a nice new iBook), and I have been given the dubious responsibility of finding a new home for her old equipment. It was quite a setup so I figured it'd be easier to sell in parts, as follows: (the CPU itself has already gone) -

The new iMac

With the impending release of the new iMac does this mean that the present supposedly outdated one will be superseded. It seems to me that if Apple are going to stop producing the current model and Apple Australia are going to price the entry level iMac at $3000 then that is the end of Macs in Aust

Drastic performance in CD/DVD player

I wonder if anyone on the list can shed any light on this for me. The CD/DVD ROM drive in my G4/400 is becoming increasingly frustrating to use. It still reads commercial CDs and DVDs just fine, but reading CD-Rs I (or even someone else) have burnt is entirely a haphazard experience. If I'm lu

Re: new iMac lacking sound-in port

Not sure why Apple has taken this approach but it is a real pain. They dropped the sound-in port on the G4 last year.. now you need to buy a USB microphone ie. iMic which go for around $90 (Aus) Plus you have to set the sound input to the iMic each time you want to use it (if you have rebooted

Hi All My enthusiasm for the new iMac has now been tempered somewhat after looking at the techspecs and pictures (http://www.apple.com/imac/specs.html). Judging from this, these wondrous new machines do not have sound in capacity other than the built in mic. One of my favourite things with the
