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."
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

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

They pay me in WOIMS
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.

Hey. New board.
I did a clean install, too. Upgrades still use the old method of starting processes, which is why I wondered.

So, I got that email about the battery--I have to pull the battery out of my computer ot find out if it's one of the affected ones?? That sounds...dangerous. And will being without a battery while I look at it do anything to the 'puter?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That sounds...dangerous.
Not at all. Batteries are removable in laptops. I think you get the replacement before you send yours back, though.

Nah. If the computer is off, it won't do a thing at all; if it's plugged in at the time and the computer is on because you're doing it at work in a state of semi-freakout about omg my precious is going to burst into flames while in the middle of doing something (NOT THAT I KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THAT), it will (PURELY THEORETICALLY, AS I DID NOT DO SUCH A THING MYSELF) probably be just fine too.
(It's the big screw that you can open with a coin, with the lock/unlock icons on it, and it'll pop right off. The serial number is right on the top of the battery.)

OK, cool--thanks Amy! I'll try it momentarily, then.
