Re: SSD "Upgrade" to a MacPro

Thank you Ronni, thank you Ray. Placing the SSD into Bay 1 and the factory hard drive into Bay 2 appears to have solved the problem. I am astounded, I thought we had left all that sort of stuff behind us with SCSI. Nonetheless, I am delighted to have finally solved this problem; and I am happ

Re: SSD "Upgrade" to a MacPro

Hi Bill, Yes, we are supposed to have left that old theory that the boot drive had to be on the first controller, and had to be in the first position on the cable. Now you should be able to have the boot drive in No1 or No 2 or in fact any other bay; I'm not sure why it did not work in your case

Looking for Old Photoshop

My sister is studying photography at Uni and she'd like to get a hold of an old version of photoshop to suit a 1.8Ghz G5 if someone has it lying around. She's probably not looking to spend much money since she doesn't really have much. Just thought I'd throw this out there in case anyone had a

Deleting "Save a version" file

Hi all I use TextEdit a lot to generate html/xml files. I have one standard working file which is saved as something like ABC.xml. I open it in TextEdit and write what I want and general re-read and re-edit it many times and continually save it by using "Save a version". I also constantly view

Re: Deleting "Save a version" file

Hi Joe, That seems like strange behaviour. I did a quick test with TextEdit and when I search in Finder it does not bring up older version of the file for me. I wonder if you have managed to turn on some obscure option in Finder. Also, deleting a file will delete its version as well. As a worka

Hi Joe, Continuing on from my previous reply to you, I have added to the Subject to help people searching the Archives. You need to understand how "Auto-Save" & "Versions" work in Lion. Your problem happened because you were continually working in the OLD way ;-) "Saving" (like you needed to in

Hi Ruben, If your sister is studying at a Uni, then she can purchase Photoshop CS 6 of any of the CS6 product bundles at very low price points. For example Photoshop is just over $200. Cheers Peder — iTune is now playing: "So Long, Marianne" by Leonard Cohen from Live in London _

Re: Lost connection

Hi Tom, Disregard my previous reply. On reading both your emails again I take it you are trying to connect to the Internet using an Ethernet connection, not transferring files from one Mac to the other. Turn the Firewall back on and stop sharing in system preferences ( unless you have cause to

I would normally have suggested a PRAM reset, but now in OSX that doesn't affect Network anymore, but still worth a go sometimes,… If you're sure all cables are all working, then you can try "resetting" Network. To do this, you do the following:- Go to Macintosh HD - Library - Preferences. FInd a
