Somethings wrong with ARD 3.1 on Intel Powerbook

I have ARD 3.1 installed on a Intel Powerbook for when I travel and on a Desktop G5.
Everything works great on G5. ARD displays name, current status (eg offline, idle, available) current apps get displayed, current users are displayed, IP addresses are correct, the OSX version is displayed (not 10.4.10 appears as 10.4.9) and ARD version shows 3.1. I was able to update 2.2 clients to 3.1 clients with the G5 but not using the Powerbook.
However, on the Powerbook, ARD displays name, but current status just says VNC On, the IPs are displayed correctly but everything else shows up as -
It definitely appears that there is a problem with the Powerbook. I tried trashing the app and reinstalling but nothing changed.
Any ideas? How do I trash ARD on the laptop so I can do a clean install?
TIA,
Tom

Not sure what your set-up looks like, but I was having similar trouble with "VNC On" where my Mac was not seeing another Mac as an ARD client. Each Mac was behind its own firewall. The solution, in this case at least, was to have port mapping on BOTH ends...on the client and admin Macs. Problem solved. Originally, I only had it on the client end. Hope that helps.

Somethings wrong with my desktop. Can someone please help?

Ok first of all let me start by saying I'm the most tech illiterate person on the face of the earth. This may have been already posted somewhere, but my complete lack of experience dealing with Mac os operating system may have caused me to completely coast right over it. So please have mercy on this poor lost mac dummy!
Yesterday a software update popped up with several updates listed so I gave them the go ahead to install the latest versions of Itunes, safari, mac os (10.5.8) The update appeared to go smoothly so since it was late I called it a night and let it sleep. To my surprise when I woke it up today I realized that none of my DESKTOP ICONS appeared to be working or responding when I clicked them, and in fact after trying to open itunes and some other frequently used programs the icons changed from their usual selves to a blank *notepad with a ruler and two pencils* (see this is how dumb I am, I don't even know what that silly icon represents) I guess thats the default when items go missing?
After much panicking I somehow managed to open the finder where I checked my 'applications' and 'documents' and was relieved to see that they are all still accessible and operating correctly through the finder, and nothing was gone. Its just that they are no longer usable through their desktop icons. I mean I checked the "desktop" area of the finder and its completely blank.
I'm so lost as to where I go from here and was wondering if someone who knows how the system operates could give me a "dummy" version of how to put them back onto my desktop like they were before the update? and where I went wrong to cause them to go missing in the first place?
Years of 'Windows' operating crashes and painful unintended erases (where i've lost all my data) have made me extremely fearful (and hesitant) of messing with system configurations in general, and although Mac is completely more stable I'm still scared about doing something wrong and erasing everything.
If someone could help me as to what to do next I would be eternally greatful!

We need clarification. When you say Desktop icons do you mean the ones on the Dock? If so, then do the following. Restart and see if that fixes the Dock icons to their original and not the generic application icon (it's a pencil, paint brush, and ruller on two blank pieces of paper) stored in /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources/ named the GenericApplicationIcon.icns file. If they don't change, launch Disk Utility, select the boot volume/partition, and repair permissions, restart, and see if that fixes things. If not, then launch the Terminal.app in /Applications/Utilities/ (which is what you see when double-clicking on the root-level disk icon sitting on your Desktop and not the Finder). Select and copy this one-line command, paste it into the Terminal window, hit the return key, quit the Terminal app, OPTION-click and hold the Dock's Finder icon, and select Relaunch:
*/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchS ervices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user*
This will rebuild the LaunchServices database and should restore all the Dock's icons to properly display the apps that they represent.

Somethings wrong with my Motherboard

I have an emachines W3080. I got a new case and put the motherboard in it, everything right, except I forgot studs. I took it to a computer store and they ran it without studs in, cuz i forgot about them. When he jumpstarted, it would work, he said i needed new motherboard and CPU. So now I'm over at my computer literate cousins house, and we're stumped. We've troubleshooted by taking everything out of case. Motherboard out, put on cardboard shoebox. Started without anything. When we get the 2 mobo power things, the one with lots of prings and the box one with the CPU and the heatsink, we used to get continous long beeps about 2 seconds long until we shutted off That was with mobo power cpu and heatsink along with Video card and RAM. Now we get no beep, and nothing shows up on the monitor. we're dumbstruck. Whats wrong?

Somethings wrong with my screen!

Ok, I was messing around with my computer and I was pressing alot of buttons on the key board and now the screen comes out negative. As such: http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/2192/picture16ac.png
Sorry if it's a little big. But I have gone thru all the F key's and looked through the colors section in the preferences window. Please help!

James,
Go to System Preferences...>Universal Access>Seeing>Display: Make sure Black on White is checked and Use grayscale is not checked. The keyboard combination of (Apple + Option + Control + 8) will also work.
Your screen shot makes me doubt my recommendation but it is worth a try.

Somethings wrong with my Photoshop elements 8

Just recently it wouldnt let me place a picture onto a blank file and when it wont let me add a new layer or change the opacity or anything like that how can i fix it?

I doubt if it could be something related to PSE preferences. You can try holding down Ctrl + Alt + Shift while launching Editor. It will ask if you want to reset preferences. Click Yes and proceed. See if it hepls.
Thanks.

Somethings Wrong With Itunes-Help!

Ok, when I pull up Itunes, and I`m on the internet, Under Purchased, it has ahmir thompson`s Music, and I don`t know where it came from, thats not even my name, can someone tell me whats happening? help!

Calm down, it's the iTunes sharing feature.
Are you in a dorm, perhaps? That would mean you are all on the same IP subnet, and can share iTunes.
If you don't like it, turn it off in Edit > Preferences.
But...ask yourself... does ahmir thompson have any good music?
It's not necessarily a BAD thing.
And you can share yours, too. (unprotected-only files)
