Hi, I thought it was about time I tried out OS X more seriously, especially now that it seems Finale may be Classic compatible. However, I am running into numerous small but annoying problems. Perhaps the OS X experts on this list may be able to help me with some of this:
1) I can't seem to get my modem make any connection noises through the speaker of my powerbook. I know this is not a big thing, but I am suffering of rather unstable connections at times, and have to connect from hotel rooms etc, where it is really nice to hear what is happening. I know this was an issue with OS X, but I heard this was resolved in 10.2.4. But I still cannot hear my modem. Is there anything I am missing? 2) In OS 9 I connect to the internet by typing a web address in Explorer and hitting return. The Mac then dials the internet and displays the page. In OS X I cannot get this working properly: My Mac starts dialing, but before it finishes connecting Explorer sends me a message saying it couldn't connect. I can then wait until I have a connection and try again, and this time it will load the page. Is there some kind of timeout setting I haven't found yet? The same happens in Mail, btw. 3) Mail: As far as I know Outlook Express is not available for MacOs X, so I guess I am left with Mail. Don't like it much, I have to admit. I'd like it much more if at least I could get it to connect and disconnect automatically. Is this possible? I am sure more questions will come up, which I am happy to post privately if someone with more OS X experience is willing to help me... Thanks for any help, Johannes Johannes -- http://www.musikmanufaktur.com http://www.camerata-berolinensis.de _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
