Thanks for the help, Daniel and Typo Boy. I'm gonna try those things today. As for size, they run anywhere from 825K to 29MG.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I searched for Apache and EXC_BAD_ACCESS and found this problem for 10.3, I wonder if it's not worth trying, for now? Basically just replacing a single file.

Look here:

Rather than just replacing the file, you might just find it and rename it.

Remember to tell the find file to look for hidden files, as it might be such.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Question: I have several Word files (on my Mac) that I need to convert to PDF. There's no 'save as' options for this, and I can't open the Word files from Adobe Reader 7.0 or from Preview.

Help? Could someone tell me how to do this? Or even do the file conversion for me?

Thanks.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Anne, the Print window should let you save as PDF.

Anne, if you don't have the print option, you could e-mail me the files, and I could convert them for you.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Anne, the Print window should let you save as PDF.

In the Print window, there should be a pull-down menu next to "Printer:" and if you pull the menu down, one of the options should be "Create Adobe PDF."

Thanks, everyone! PDFs have been achieved.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Hey. New board.

Could somebody who has a clean-installed or archive-and-installed (rather than standard upgraded) Tiger check the folder /System/Library/LaunchDaemons and tell me if the have something that contains the word 'apache' or 'httpd'? I'm thinking I should have something there, maybe, but I don't.

I did a clean install, and there's nothing there.

My experience from doing 15 years of this stuff is that upgrades should be avoided. A&I or a clean install are always to be preferred.
