Have you tried downloading Firefox (another internet browser)? I did that because Safari shut itself down every time I tried to add to my tree on here - it was a nightmare. So far, I haven't had too many problems with it. When I did work experience, I was working with a web designer who showed me how he built a site then tested it in several different browsers to iron out any problems. It might be that whoever designed this site only tested it on, say, Firefox and Internet Explorer, or just tried it on the PC and Mac versions of Internet Explorer and so doesn't know about the problems. |

Hi Baz Think we've met on another site. Safari ----- have you run first aid to check disk permission. If you haven't used first aid before it's simple and quick. Jan (deletejb) |

Thanks Baz, I was a little confused then. i was just about to say that wasn't panther before Tiger? lol I'm just having a sneak peak at Leopard now lol |

I think I may just get the upgrade to Panther when it's ready Lesley. |

I have OS X Tiger on mine at the moment, but isn't Panther the next generation platform ? Sorry, just realised what I've written. I meant LEOPARD lol |

I quickly read an article saying that the windows part is still subject to virus'. The best thing to do then is not to put windows on it and keep it as Mac only. |

I think that's something I don't want to try out Lesley, how about you MM ? |

That's what I was worried about Baz. The best thing about a Mac is not worrying at all about catching a virus. I know this sounds daft but if you could catch a virus with the duo, do you think it would only infect the windows part of it? |

I do have a few bad vibes about the new Intel Core Duo 2 Lesley. If we can run Windows as well, does that mean we can pick up all the Windows Virus's as well ? |

Lol Baz, I also rave about cats in the same way! I don't mean to have a 'go' at pcs but I have to agree with you, I do find them a bit prehistoric. When i turn on my Mac, everything just looks good. It does everything that I want and more than I ever imagined. The only thing it doesn't have is family tree maker, I have to have virtual pc running on my Mac so I can run it. If I was starting my tree from scratch I would have probably used a mac program. However, I believe the new Macs with the intel chips can run windows based programs. Unfortunately (or perhaps that is fortunately) I don't intend to replace my Mac for a long time yet. x lesley |
