When an application is installed on OS X, prior to 10.4, it is usually "prebound" to speed up launching the application. (That's what the "Optimizing" phase of installation is.) Fink normally performs prebinding automatically when you install a package.

I am afraid that Apple's legal department does not want anyone distributing an Aqua scheme, so we will not post any such schemes on the Kaleidoscope Scheme Archive. Although Aqua schemes are probably available elsewhere on the web (please do not ask us for URLs), we ask that you respect Apple's right to control its intellectual property and not use these schemes with Kaleidoscope.

It is too early to say. We intend to make a version of Kaleidoscope for Mac OS X. However, unlike applications which can be Carbonized, low level hacks like Kaleidoscope need to be completely rewritten for Mac OS X.

DenyHosts should work under Mac OS/X. You will have to edit your denyhosts configuration file (typically denyhosts.cfg) according to the Mac OS X version that you are running:

Older versions of the Red Hat RPMs for Ethereal put only the non-GUI components into the ethereal RPM, the fact that Ethereal is a GUI program nonwithstanding; newer versions make it a bit clearer by giving that RPM a name starting with ethereal-base.

If the software initially runs fast, then becomes progressively slower, this usually indicates another application is consuming all of the available memory. In our tests, some speech recognition, video and photo editing applications can cause this. Exit these programs, then restart our software.

The Mac OS X installer is asking for a username and password for an account on that computer that has administrator access. This proves that you have permission to install the software on that computer. This account is usually the account you use to log into that computer. If your computer is set up to log into an account automatically, you will need to know that password.

R for Mac OS X is available on CRAN in the form of a disk image containing a multi-package consisting of the R framework, the R.app GUI and optional libraries. The image is usually named R.dmg with optional version number. The installation is done by double-clicking on the disk image, which opens a new Finder window with the installer package, followed by double-clicking on that package installer. The installer will guide you through the steps necessary to install R on Mac OS X.

a. Most installation problems are caused by downloading an incomplete copy of our software. Try downloading the software again when our server is less busy. b. Do not run Weightmania directly from a CD. Install it by dragging the Weightmania folder from the CD onto your desktop or applications folder. c. If you have trouble starting Weightmania, you may need to download the newest version of Java or upgrade your operating system. You can download the latest files from Apple using the link below.

A We have been told that the game is playable using Omniweb's Browser, which is downloadable for free here:- http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omniweb/ A very kind Apple Mac user using OS X ver 10.2 tells us the game is also very playable using Microsoft's Internet Explorer version 6.0 Also Mac OX 10.2 and 10.3 using Macintosh's Safari browser. For the best results, try using the Firefox Web Browser, which you can download for free, by clicking here.

For "IP Address" enter 192.168.8.X where X = any number between 1-253. (This X number must be different for each machine on the network) For "Subnet Mask" enter 255.255.255.0 (This is the only subnet mask that can be used on the network. It cannot be changed. Use this for each computer on the network.) Whenever clients report difficulties accessing IP services, it is good practice to verify IP connectivity at the client and at the server.

The keyboard locale may change after sending a message based on the capabilites of the font being used. If the message font that you are using does not natively support the active keyboard locale, the keyboard locale will reset to the default locale for the font. The solution to the locale changing when you send a message is to select a different message font that supports the keyboard locale that you are using.

The Inform compiler for OS X must be run through the Unix Terminal utility. If you double-click on its icon from a Finder window, nothing much happens: a Terminal window opens and runs the compiler without parameters, which triggers a "basic usage" message and ends up by stating that no compilation was requested. The compiler needs to be told which file to compile, and we must oblige by explicitely typing it. There are two ways to approach this problem.

Mac OS X's Terminal maps Page Up and Down key to scroll the session but doesn't pass that key to the application. Also Apple's laptops don't even have a Page Up and Down keys at all. To get around this problem Zinc maps Control-W and Q keys as Page Up and Page Down respectively.

Not for the current version 3.3.4. However, since Mac OS X is essentially Unix, it is much more likely that we will be able to provide a proper port of the standard VNC codebase in a future release.

Mac OS X is the trademarked name of a computer operating system or OS. It is usually refered to as Mac (Maaac) OS (aaaah-S) 10 (ten). It is published by Apple Computer and is intended for use on Apple computers. This OS is fundamentally different from previous Mac OS's, in that it is UNIX based and has a different interface. Apple computer merged with a company called NeXT Computer in 1997. NeXTSTEP was the operating system written and sold by NeXT Computer since 1989.
