MAC Maintenance Tips
(1) Repair permissions with Disk Utility(like FREE OnyX) once a month
Before you sell or give away a Mac, make sure that no personal data remains on it,
(2) Backup home directory - burning it to a CD-RW/DVD-RW at least once a month
(3) Run Software Update manually at least once a month
=======================================================================
Securely erase your hard disk
After you've copied all your files to your new Mac, restart the old one from the Mac
OS X installation disc. Open Disk Utility
and select your disk from the list on the left.
Click on the Erase tab and then on Security Options. Next, choose one of the
several erasure methods that are offered. The 7-Pass Erase option is probably
sufficient for most people, but if you're truly paranoid, select 35-Pass Erase, which
will make it nearly impossible for anyone, even James Bond, to recover your files. If
you're using a laptop, make sure it's plugged in. This process can take a long time.
Tiger only hint, Here's how to take a screenshot from a DVD
in Mac OS X Tiger. I noticed another hint said to quit DVD Player
and all that other stuff ... but that's too much work.
Here's a much simpler workaround:
1. Go to the part of the movie you'd like to capture. Hit the Stop button in the DVD controller.
2. Press the Play button in the controller, and then immediately press down Command-Shift-4.
3. Hit the space bar to take a screenshot of the DVD Player window, then click the mouse to take the shot.
You can do all this without ever quitting DVD Player first.
=======================================================================
The "CandyBar" Icons Application(ABOVE) is simple enough to use..
But, there is another way to CHANGE - Some System Icons(PNG)
Like - the Trash/Apple(URL)/Finder Icons.. Read below..
To download "MacWasher" by Webroot Software..Goto: MacWasher
NOTE: With some Mac versions, the only way to be sure...
is to use "OnyX", then click - "Cleaning" - check -
"System cache" - then "Restart"..
