Re: [CGUYS] Capital V

an Apple Powerbook G4 running OSX 10.4.11. The only way to type an uppercase
v is by using the cap lock key. I've tried using both of the shift keys and
neither works. Tested all the other keys and no problem typing an uppercase

Try in order until the problem is solved...

1) Change the keyboard to a different language and then back.

2) Safe boot

3) Delete all keyboard-related caches and preferences

4) Switch to a different language and see if the same key has the same 
problem. If so it is a hardware problem.

Re: [CGUYS] Firefox bookmarks

2008-08-10 Thread Tony B
If you were asking this question 5 years ago it might make some sense.
But FF3 stores it's bookmarks right where they belong, and it's got a
great built in organizer.

I suspect that, instead of learning how to use the new organizer,
you're trying your best to operate the same way you did years ago, and
not surprisingly, it's not working.

I'd read your story about the subway hack except the hit I got was from the
same guy who wrote the article on breitbart about apple.

You need to work on your Googling skills. 
The slides for the forbidden speech are online.
Also a secret MBTA report that the lawyers accidently put in the record.

You can view your choice of columns, sort, move, delete, backup,

Re: [CGUYS] please help with VISTA

2008-08-10 Thread Brian Jones

Each new release of Windows requires more RAM and horse power.
I recommend as a minimum: A dual core processor and 2GB RAM
(if you want to do more than run a single program).
Vista is not so bad unless you want to run legacy software..
much better security, and several new features that I really love.
(not as nice as a Mac, but not as expensive either)
 Please tell us which model you purchased.

must talk about this all the time.  New computer - VISTA - and I feel like 
I
am living in the dark ages.  Everything takes forever to do and I get a 
lot

of (not responding ) at the top of the screen while the computer is
thinking.  I try to ride it out - have no choice -  please help.
