I suddenly have a problem where I can't add or remove programs from the dock. When I try to drag a program icon to the dock it won't stick to it and shows a "+" next to it in green. When I try to drag an icon off the dock it shows a shadow of the icon that won't go away. I tried making a new user and the same behavior occurs in that user. I tried finding my com.apple.dock.plist but couldn't locate it. I was able to find com.apple.dockfixup.plist and tried deleting.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a question about using my new samsung tv as a monitor for my macbook. I have all the cables and such and my TV reads the computer. It actually shows the desktop background, mouse, and the toolbar on the tv...
BUT....when i try and open a program such as safari or itunes it does not display the program on the monitor but rather on my macbook screen. It shows the program open on the tv monitor but it shoots off the screen and then opens on the macbook screen.
Also the mouse disappears from the tv monitor screen on the left side only, and when it does it becomes visible back on the macbook screen! Any tips or suggestions on how to get the programs to show up on the monitor instead of the macbook screen?
I just removed over 1000 cookies. They were bogging the system down to the point of having some pages freeze. I then closed Safari. I launched Safari again a few minutes later and all the cookies were back, even though the only site I went to was the Apple open page.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've just noticed that in my Finder window sidebar, under "Shared", I have a character called Thomson listed. I don't know any Thomson and I bought the machine, an MBA, brand new. However, I did have an engineer instal the machine in my apartment and can only assume he's the mysterious Thomson. Anyway, whoever he/she is, I don't want him/her on my machine as Shared & "connected as guest". The point is, I cannot find a way to delete Thomson!! Can anyone help? I've tried System Preferences>Security and Accounts and there's no trace of Thomson there. Right clicking on Thomson in the sidebar of Finder only gives me the option to Open and Get Info. Most annoying, this. There MUST be a way to delete a Sharing but totally unwanted guest....

I hear a lot of different things/opinions about what software runs PC programs the best on a Mac. I'm a Macn00b so whatever is the easiest to run with/operate is probably going to be the best for me. So, my question is, what is the best software to run PC programs on your Mac?
What are some programs you use that you feel are necessary? What do they do? Why are they necessary? I use smcFanControl, gfxCardStatus, and iStat. smcFanControl obviously lets you control your fan speed. gfxCardStatus lets you choose your graphic card or use the default dynamic switching. iStat is of course the famous widget that basically tells you everything you need to know about whats going on inside. I feel all of these are necessary for me to have complete control of my Macbook Pro.

I am getting my first MacBook Pro tomorrow, and i am just curious as to how i could run Windows only software on it. It will only be a couple of games and music software, but i dont have the OSX version, and i dont really want to buy a new version. I'd rather get a free program that does the same thing as Paralells, but if there is any other paid software that is reliable id like to know.

I have an older MacBook with only 120 gp hard drive and am running out of room. I don't use some of the programs installed and would like to remove them but many don't have an uninstall program. Is there any trick to ensure all elements of a program are removed from the system?

As stated above I upgraded my memory to Crucial 8G 1067 mhz DDR3. The initial results were outstanding however over the past few months the performance has decreased and I'm now getting the spinning ball often. Additionally the startup seems very sluggish. I use Onyx for maintenance and do not have any startup programs. I have also reset the kernel cache. (If I remember correctly)
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am about to purchase my first mac ever (black macbook) and while i've extensively done my research on the hardware specs, i'm not that familiar with the types of programs to use for certain things. With that being said, i was wondering if you well-informed bunch would be able to steer me in the direction of the best programs in the following fields.
*Best Bit torrent client (i had Bit comet on my PC and was pretty good)
*Best music-listening program (had Winamp)
*Best Chat client (had trillian)
*Best program to transfer music to ipod (also just got my first ipod ever and hate iTunes -- i had a Creative ZEN and am a big fan of the 'Drag-and-Drop' method
*Best web browser (Firefox or safari?)
Thats all i can think of right now. Again, if anybody can give me a heads up, i'd greatly appreciate it.
I'm trying to install programs, I get past the agreement page and as soon as i start putting my password in the spinny disc starts spinning... its looks like its installing, writes all the files and when it looks like its installed it says failed, contact manufacturer... I thought maybe it was just that program so I tried a different one and the same thing.

I at least plan on downloading Firefox, Chrome, Skype, AIM, Google Earth, Videora (is there a better alternative that comes with OSX?), etc.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have an existing macbook 2007 model, and am looking to upgrade. Would you:
A). Keep the MacBook for now and get a new iMac i5 (so you had a big one for home, and could carry the small one around to school etc)
B). Upgrade to a new MacBook Pro when they get released and just have 1 computer.
I figured that if I sold my macbook it would bring the MacBook Pro option down to the same price as the iMac (taking into account increased amount for Applecare etc.). So out the pocket choices A and B would cost within a hundred bucks. I do need a laptop for my master's program, but it's mostly taking notes etc. So any laptop would do, but at home I play games and mess with video and photography, so would like a computer that could handle that as well.
I have a macbook operating on mac OS X version 10.5.8 processor 2.13 intel core duo, memory 4gb 667 mhz ddr2. Lately I have been experiencing programs crashes i.e. program not responding also sometimes when I try to access system preferences it does not respond, I have to force quit all the time.

I tried to reinstall the Adobe applications and before I can I get the message:
"Adobe Illustrator 13.0.0 [k] (Universal) cannot be opened because of a problem."
without getting the option of installing an update. I also tried to copy the programs from the Old to the New HD with no luck

Cinema tools, Evernote to name a few.I've repaired disk, verified permissions and everything I can think of. The computer runs fine but it's quite annoying that several paid programs just won't open at all.
