MacGroup: Need help

2003-07-04 Thread Harry Jacobson-Beyer
I'm guessing here, but it's probably toast. I don't know how many internal drives you have but just on the slim chance the connectors are shot and not the drive try hooking it to a different connector or switching it out with your boot drive (assuming it's got a boot partition on it). Or if you

Thanks Harry, I have two internal drives, the boot drive and this second one I use as my scratch drive. I don't bother to back it up because it doesn't contain any original work documents. But it does contain my entire iTunes library and some other stuff I'd rather not try to rebuild if I don't

But this is supposed to have something to do with keywords and the like for a website, as Steve Brown wanted to know. I am sure he is neither thinking of rivers or Metaphysics or Metamucil, although maybe the word meta' ( is it a Greek syllable) has somethig to do with it. Marta On Friday,

Keywords for metatags are whatever you want search engines to categorize you with...what is your website? You want to pick words that are non repeating separated by commas. You can do something like this though... personal coaching, web coaching, success coaching Go see my mentor's website
