Other people have already posted about how to boot from the DVD.
Sometimes just doing a safe boot is enough. Turn your Mac off, hold down shift
and turn it on again while holding shift till you see the spinning circle at
which point you can let go. When it gets to the login screen, click back th

Bob has responded off list and suggested a reinstall from the latest combo.
Whilst it didn't resolve the problem it was quite special watching a download

Hi Janis,
Disk Utility will do the repair itself - it's just that it can't do it on
the start-up volume (a bit like sawing through the branch you're sitting
on).
So, what you need to do is boot up the macbook from the original DVD disk
that came with your computer - when the macbook is running f

Hi All
Since upgrading to Snow Leopard my macbook has trouble on start up. I lose my
desk top and only screen saver appears. After several restarts it comes back.

Hi Daniel
You might recall that my wife purchased an iBook G4 14" laptop
(M9628X/A) from you back in April 2006. She has managed to rub off the

Thank you Ronni.
I restarted the computer and iphotos has since opened. I also followed your
instructions and it is all set to read and write. The problems started when the
hard drive was still connected. I have disconnected it from the finder icon and
clicking on the eject symbol. I just clos

I don't actually have an iPad "yet". I was going to stick with the Kindle as
all I wanted was something simple just for reading, but..

putting photos into it as we go. Yet another use for the iPad when we are
