Sounds like someone moved all the wireless mice around between the  
computers, probably as a gag?


You'll either have to sort them out manually, or pair them again in  
the Bluetooth Preference Pane.

How do I get Safari to display in wide screen?

[ll]

 I just replaced the 19 inch lcd monitor I used for my windows
with a 25 incher. I switched the 19 inch monitor to my Quicksilver 933
with Leopard. Safari won't display in a full screen for me but I'm
sure the fix must be simple. What is it? I've checked preferences and
display.

This is why when you look up 'FUD' in the dictionary, there's a

Re: How do I get Safari to display in wide screen?

[lana]

It only goes 2/3 of the way across the screen when I hit full screen.Since the 
monitor is a wide screen,I thought that was the reason.

My G5 won't start up

[JIM RAPER]

Hi, Y'All,  This morning when I went into my computer/library, I detected a
strong electrical smell. The computer system had been shut down Thursday
night and was still off this morning. I suspected at first my flourescent
magnifying lamp had a fried ballast. So not being that handy, I shut down
everything electrical and called the family electrician. He hasn't made it
yet. About 3:30 p.m. I used a flashlight to reconnect only my G-5 computer
system, punched the start button on the front, and got ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
Now I'm really concerned, scared, almost terrified. I've had this G-5 only
since Dec '09. No trouble except the usual noisy fan(s).

Can someone give me a checklist to go through before I haul this heavy
behemoth 50+ miles to a repair dealership.

My invoice from Powermax lists it as Used Power Mac G5 PCI-X/2.5 GHz Dual
Processor 2GB RAM160 GB internal drive, internal SuperDriveKbrd, mouse ATI
Radeon 9600 XT Video OS 10.4.11 installed usual 90 day warranty gone past of
course.

Please suggest away.  Jim

If the Mac was shut down it's VERY unlikely it's the Mac.

Where is that Mac plugged in? I suspect that outlet is what fried.  
Personally, I'd wait for the electrician, or someone like him.

Hi all, quick question here:

I have three 20 G5 iMacs, and one 17 all of the twenty inchers
either have swollen leaky capacitors, or bad mobo. However, if this
17 has a good motherboard, which it appears to, no swollen caps or
anything, will this motherbaord fit into a twenty inch iMac of the
exact same generation?

Thanks!

Use wired mice.

 You'll either have to sort them out manually, or pair them again in  
the Bluetooth Preference Pane.


Actually it was the initial setup. He's currently using the old wired

wireless be ok or should he keep using wired mice?




Wired. They will disappear faster if they are wireless...

 Ok I just fired up the G4 MDD Dual 1.25  in 10.5.8 and the Disk Utility 
 chokes out wit h an error  Could not establish communication with helper

 So I'm assuming this to be a Software problem. I also rebooted the MDD in

 The issue just cannot only be at my Condo on just my machines, or can it?
 
 
 
I obtained another Leopard install disk and reinstalled the sysem on the G4 and

original one (a retail Leopard box set) does'nt work either on the PPC side.
 Why me??

It only goes 2/3 of the way across the screen when I hit full screen.Since the monitor is a wide screen,I thought that was the reason.--- On Fri, 4/16/10, Kasey Smith kasm...@gmail.com wrote:

Are all your cables tight? Try replacing the ethernet cables with  
known-good ones. If that doesn't work try a different switch if you use  
one.

though.
