Blue screen appears after installing Leopard 10.5

1. Start your original, affected computer in Target Disk Mode by holding the T key, and connect it to your second computer. Your affected computer's hard disk volume(s) should appear on the desktop of the second computer.

2. Open the second computer's mounted disk volume (where Leopard is installed), then open the System folder, then the Library folder, and finally the SystemConfiguration folder.

3. Locate "Application Enhancer.bundle" and move it to the Trash. Important: Do not delete any other files

from your Leopard disk.

4.  Enter an admin account name and password if prompted.

5. Eject the mounted volume(s). (Disconnect the FireWire cable if you want).

6. Turn off the original computer and start it up again (holding no keys).

 

If the problem persists don't hesitate to bring the computer in to us here at ReStart.


 



Recording
in Automator


Another new feature in Automator that can help users is the ability to record a series of user activities. This allows novice users to better understand how their activities translate to Automator actions, and it allows experienced users to add tasks that might not otherwise exist as Automator actions


The technology is functionally similar to the recording feature in the AppleScript Script Editor, except it's more broadly implemented because it relies on the Universal Access feature of Leopard to fully track user activities while recording.


Below we have gathered some great training links for you. There are 100's of hours worth of training on all sorts of topics from hardware to software. If you have specific requests for training feel free to email us at training@ restartcomputer.com. If we get enough requests for a particular topic not already covered we will post it here.
