Does anyone know if I can run Time Machine when running 10.4 osx?
I have an older G4 that I want to run some type of backup program on because it recently crashed and was a bear to get the info back. I added an external drive to the system, thinking that I would run time Machine but I don't think it will run on 10.4. On my network I have three macs and two Apple Tv's. One of the Mac's is a MacBook Pro Intel version (4 years old). I also have one Airport Exteme. If I cannot run Time Machine from the 10.4 Power Book is there a way to connect the external drive to the AExtreme and use that to do some type of backup?
Thanks for any suggesttions.

Not sure that it will work. When I took a quick look it says that it need the following
PPC / Intel, Mac OS X 10.4-10.6 or later.
The G4 does not have an intel chip.
Did I read that wrong?
Probably. Current version 2.6.2 should run fine on your PPC machine. It does on mine, though I don't use it for backup (Retrospect 6 for me, just from inertia).

I just got my new iPhone4 set up today and it has pulled in every email that is in my desk top as being unread. Yet I have read all the emails. Still the iPhone thinks they are unread. Does anyone know how I can delete all of these emails at one time from the phone?
I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Hi I've just bought a Macbook pro (2010) I bought it as I needed an older one running snow leopard. Its running on 10.6.4 but I need it with 10.6.1 or 10.6.2, does anyone know if I can install 10.6.1 or 2 on my Macbook??????
This is because I have a copy of Protools I want to run on it and it has to be 10.6.1 or 10.6.2
Help I'm desperate!!The 2010 MBPs came installed with either 10.6.3, or 10.6.4 later in their lifespan. Earlier versions of the OS may not have the correct drivers for the Mac's hardware.
Ultimately, you might be better off upgrading your copy of Pro Tools, or updating the Mac to Yosemite and running Logic Pro X. -

Does anyone know how I can record the screen and myself at the same time?
I have seen videos of people using their isigght camera to record their screen and a video of them is in the shape of a square on top of a corner of the screen.

I'm not certain I know what you want to do, but consider these ideas:
(1) If you have seen a video of people doing it, the people who made the video surely know how. Ask them if you can.
(2) You may be able to do what you want with this app:
http://b-l-a-c-k-o-p.com/CamCamX.html
(3) The easiest way I was able to record my screen and simultaneous video of me in a window in the top corner of my display was to use two webcams. I used QuickTimeX to make a screen recording while I used my built-in iSight to show me moving in my Photo Booth window on the display.

Does anyone know how i can embed a browser in my JFrame?
In microsoft technologies they have OLE, where I can embed Internet Explorer into any application written in VB or C++ (or C Sharp).
Does anyone know how I can do this with Java? Is there a way to make a java applet that has a browser in it?
And then if there is, can I also put an invisible layer on top of that, and paste JLabels and stuff into that, over the browser window?Have a look at JEditorPane.
From the API Guide:
A text component to edit various kinds of content. This component uses implementations of the EditorKit to accomplish its behavior. It effectively morphs into the proper kind of text editor for the kind of content it is given. The content type that editor is bound to at any given time is determined by the EditorKit currently installed. If the content is set to a new URL, its type is used to determine the EditorKit that should be used to load the content.
By default, the following types of content are known:
text/plain
Plain text, which is the default the type given isn't recognized. The kit used in this case is an extension of DefaultEditorKit that produces a wrapped plain text view.
text/html
HTML text. The kit used in this case is the class javax.swing.text.html.HTMLEditorKit which provides html 3.2 support.
text/rtf
RTF text. The kit used in this case is the class javax.swing.text.rtf.RTFEditorKit which provides a limited support of the Rich Text Format. -

Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X. -
i got new iphone and when i connect it to my pc, it lost all my current data and replaced it with the backup on my computer, which is from april. so i have lost all my calendar information and schedule. does anyone know how i can reverse this and get my information back?
Every backup replaces the old one, so, unless you included the backup folder in your computer backup routine, you can't get back your calendar info.
The only time iTunes will not replace a backup is, when you use it to restore from, this one will stay in the backup list in iTunes.

does anyone know how I can create a text field in a pdf document that will multiply a total in another box? I’m making an interactive pdf for an order form (attached), and I need to find a way for the “total quantity” number to multiply by 9 and total in the “Amount Due” box.
Hey Gary,
Have a look at this post: Re: horizontal scrolling similar to excel
Andy's reply will show you how to make a table scroll horizontally, but it will be tough to accomplish it in some sort of easily replicable way. I am working on a JQuery extension that will help accomplish this, but I have had my time invested in another project at the moment.
Good Luck,

I have an unlocked iphone (Australia) and am traveling to Korea. Am I able ot use global roaming there, or does anyone know if I can buy a prepaid SIM and put it in my iphone 4S? Thanks!
I should mention that if you are deadset on using a Mac, then you can run Windows 7 or 8 in Parallels. You will find about a 10% speed reduction using a VM emulation. You will also need to have at least 8 GBs of RAM in your Mac to assure optimum performance of both OS X and Windows. Do not install a later version of Windows than is supported by your software.

while cleaning my iPhoto archive
What do you mean by that? Do you mean you deleted photos or albums from your iPhoto Library?
You best solution is to use Time Machine to restore your library from just before you "cleaned your iPhoto archive". -
