Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view

When my Finder windows open in column view, all the columns are always VERY wide. I have to then spend time resizing them to a managable width. Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view?

No, because you can't set a columns view default.

I'm using the Motorola Atrix smart phone with the Laptop Dock. When I open a web page with Firefox I have to hit "Ctl +" three times to make the page fill the screen. Is there any way to set up the Firefox browser to open the web pages the right size in the first place?

The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.

Is there any way to set a stealth mode on the ports in Panther

The built-in firewall in Tiger provides a 'Stealth Mode' setting that makes the ports nonresponsive to external attempts to connect. The Panther firewall doesn't have this capability. Does anyone know of a way to enable this on a Panther machine (specifically 10.3.5 & 10.3.6) - even if it involves installing a utility application is ok.

Ok, question for Karl.
When I go to https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2
and do the ShieldsUP Stealth test from outside my hardware firewall connected directly to the internet (SSH turned off for the test) why do I get this result?:
GRC Port Authority Report created on UTC: 2006-09-25 at 06:03:43
Results from scan of ports: 0, 21-23, 25, 79, 80, 110, 113,

ALL PORTS tested were found to be: STEALTH
Specifically ftp reports this:

FTP
Stealth There is NO EVIDENCE WHATSOEVER that a port (or even any computer) exists at this IP address!
The only thing that fails is the PING test. Because they can ping my address. I don't have firewall turned on and I am running 10.3.9 not 10.4.
Any ideas? Is this test just not thourough enough?
Run the test for yourself and see. You will need to click Proceed at the bottom of the page to start the test.

Is there a way to set default search settings in the app store

I would like to filter out all the children's apps. There seem to be more apps for kids than adults and I get tired of wading through them all.

Hi GB,
Are you talking about the stationary for the inside/body of the email (which BD gave great instructions for) or are you talking about the background color/highlight for the email as it appears in your sent folder?
I use my Mac Mail to manage several different email accounts from a variety of sources. I color code them so I can tell which account the email came into/from by just looking at the screen. If this will help, I (or one of us) can help you set this up in Mail's Rules.
Let me know.
Smiles,
Jen

Is there a way to set a quarterly reminder in the calendar?

Create a new event. In the repeat section, select custom, and then enter the number of weeks for a quarter (~12). Not perfect, but close.

Is there any way to set column width is GridaBagLayout?

Is there any way to set it up like tables in html - where you specify the width and height of the cell and then place the component inside it - with the component not resizing the cell unless it is larger than the cell area?
Thanks.

Thanks Paul, please excuse the sarcasm - I just found your recommendation funny. I actually found some examples of Box.filler and have created a method for adding one for each column I want:
public void addFillerColumn(int width, int height, int colNum, int rowNum )
panel.add( new Box.Filler(new Dimension(width,height),new Dimension(width,height),new Dimension(width,height)),
new GridBagConstraints( colNum, //gridx
rowNum, //gridy
1, //gridwidth
1, //gridheight
0, //weightx
0, //weighty
GridBagConstraints.WEST, //anchor
GridBagConstraints.NONE, //fill
new Insets(0,0,0,0), //insets(, left,,)
0, //ipadx
0 )); //ipady*/
}

My wife and I share an iTunes account. Is there any way to set up a seperate one for her to sync her phone contacts, iCloud and music to without having to purchase all her music again and then share going forward?

My wife and I share an iTunes account. Is there any way to set up a seperate one for her to sync her phone contacts, iCloud and music to without having to purchase all her music again and then share going forward?
It would be so much easier having seperate accounts but we have hundreds of her purchased songs on my account and she would need to be able to access these from her account. Possible?
Also, if we bought a song in future we would want to be able to both have access to it.
Alternatively, what is the easy way to sync two distinctly different contact lists to one iTunes account?
Thank you in advance.

FYI: iTunes account (used to make purchases) is not the same as iTunes library (iTunes on your computer with music, movies, etc.).

Will we have to create a seperate account for her, or can we all have the same one?
You can but you will not be able to limit what she syncs.
I would like to avoid 'checking' and 'unchecking' individual songs every time one of us tries to synch our ipods to the library.
I don't recommend using (only) the checkmarks to select what to sync.
Each of you can create your own playlists then sync only those playlists.
Then add/delete from your own playlists to change iPod content.
The only time I uncheck items is if I rarely/never want to sync them to anything, such as Christmas music or old audiobooks.
I suggest you each have your own computer login account. Then everyone has their own contacts, calendars, and everything else.
You and your husband can share an iTunes library and let your daughter have her own.

Is there a way to set default PDF options/presets in Illustrator CS5?

I do a lot of design and have a custom preset created for saving my .ai files to .pdf. It's not a big deal but it's a little tedious switching from the default adobe PDF preset to my custom preset every time I save as to a PDF (Besides the ocassional times where I forget to switch it altogether, having my preset set to default would eliminate that).
So I guess is there a way to set my custom preset as the default option for .PDFs? Thanks.

Unfrotunately, I tried that and I guess you're not allowed to delete the presets that Adobe's created in Illustrator
(Unless there's a way to find the actual preset file in Finder and delete that? Not sure because I've deleted the presets in HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/ AdobePDF/Settings but an Illustrator Default still appears).
Thanks though.

I just got my daughter a new macbook pro. She currently shares my wires apple id for iTunes on her iTouch. I need to set up an email account for her. Is there any way to set up a new iCloud email account but still use my wires apple id for iTunes?

No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

Is there any way to set a password so that txt messages only open when the password is entered

Hello Damien,
There is an option to set a passcode for the entire iPhone. You can use the following steps to set this up:
You can configure a passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using Settings > General > Passcode Lock.
Once enabled, you will be prompted for the passcode whenever you:
Turn on or restart the device
Wake the device
Unlock the screen
Note: You can specify the amount of time the screen must be locked before requiring a passcode.
You can find the full article here:

You will need to go via your computer's iTunes - to get music into the Music app you either need to download it directly on the iPad from the iTunes store app, or sync it from your computer's iTunes

Is there any way to set up icloud with Windows XP?

Is there any way to set up icloud using a PC with windows XP?

Yes there is.
There are many threads on this forum discussing this issue already (it's good to search before asking the same quesiton again).
There is a simple hack to get iCloud control panel to work on Windows XP to give you synced access to Contacts, Calenders, Reminders and Bookmarks. It also can be used to set up your me.com mail. Photostream doesn't work.
I found a solution here, have written it up in clearer english and added details re IMAP support for me.com addresses here:
http://xlii.be/s/1ii
In summary:
You need:
Unpacking program e.g. 7-Zip or WinRar
Orca MSI editor
The iCloud setup hack for Windows XP:
Download iCloud Control Panel for Windows.
Open iCloudSetup.exe file with WinRar or 7-Zip and extract.
Navigate to and open the iCloud.msi or iCloud64.msi (for 64bit systems) with Orca.
In the left table select LaunchCondition. Then change in the right table “VersionNT> = 600” to “VersionNT> = 200” and Save.
Run modified iCloud.msi and install.
Run iCloud Control Panel, located in the Windows Control Panel, and set up as you want.
I've had reports that you need to keep the files extracted from the .exe file in the same directory during installaton of the .msi file.
Have fun!

That is what Activation Lock of iOS 7 does
In addition, it renders the iPhone totally useless to anyone who doesn't know your Apple ID and password.

Hi guys. Just a quick question. My wife has a Mac Book Pro and when she is browsing the web she can use a two fingered gesture to go back to her previous page (by swiping from right to left). Is there any way to set that up on my iPad Mini. Many thanks.

Not in the Safari browser she can't. That is not supported on the iPad. There are other mobile browsers that do have that functionality - one is iCab Mobile.
