Cocktail

Just saw it one hour ago. Kill Bill vol. 1 is the perfect cocktail of action, brilliant filming and beautiful soundtrack I expected from Tarantino. ...

cocktail has a force empty trash utility. get it here http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/18282 i am not familiar with the terminal but some people on this forum will be able to tell you a command line to empty trash (try searching the forums, it must've been mentioned before)

The system has cache files, as well, and trashing these sometimes will help the speed of the system, but not to any real perceivable degree, unless you have something wrong with your system. I would use Cocktail, like bobw does -- that'll get all of them. I wouldn't do it but once every month or so, they don't hurt the system, slow it down, or take up much room unless...

All seem related to Safari. I used Cocktail and emptied all but cookies, was down to about 650, just checking, I'm backup to 2057. ...

o you can do reformats you really don't need to worry about that since you can always do an archive and install. Just make sure you run some disk utilities like cocktail and you repair permissions often and you should be ok. ...

Crap, you beat me. I only have 2593. Cocktail dumps them pretty fast. ...

It's the same as if you pop in a CD like PhotoShop or something like that -- the CD always opens...

When the installer is running (booted from the CD) under file I think, one of the menu options anyway, is "Disk utility" choose that and Disk Utility will startup. Select the disk you want to install 10.3 on and erase it. Once that is done, quit disk utility and that will take you back to the installer, you can now install 10.3 becuase you have effectively erased 10.3.1 and...

Greetings all, AlBook, 1ghz, 500 Mb, came with 10.2.7, I upgraded to 10.2.8, then I upgraded to 10.3, and finally, upgraded to 10.3.1. I am having tons of application unexpectedly quitting, and daily kernel panics. I do the normal stuff with cocktail; permissions, cron scripts etc...nothing helps. I want to clean install 10.3 but, when I boot to the cd and try, it...

Thanks for the reply. I just spoke to Alsoft Tech Support and they said the current CD's will not boot G5's. But they will release a CD within 1-2 weeks that will boot G5. Registered users will be able to get a CD for a nominal fee (guy mentioned $12.95 or something). Cocktail is great! Thanks, Russ
