| DVD Player not working I don't know if this is a common problem. I've searched the board and read the wiki but have found no mention of this on either. My DVD Player application is not working. It opens and then immediately closes. I've replaced the installed… | Leopard 10.5 | 5,772 reads 2008-01-31 · 10 notes |
| Sound randomly dissappearing Everything has been going well with this set up of mine. However, as of late my sound seems to be disappearing. As in, on first boot it works I can listen to music on iTunes or watch a video online and hear it all. Unfortunately, at a… | Leopard 10.5 | 5,188 reads 2008-02-08 · 5 notes |
| DVD-Rom Drive Won't Eject I've ran into a strange issue with my install. It seems that my DVD-Rom drive won't eject after I've used it once. That is, after start up or a reboot if I eject and put a new DVD/CD in or if there's already one in there and I access it. I… | Leopard 10.5 | 4,029 reads 2008-02-01 · 6 notes |

| Account Creation Hangup I've recently installed Zephyroth's 10.5.1 DVD to my machine and everything went well until I got to the install wizard. It likes to hang at the "Account Creation" screen. Now, I've read through the forums and the Wiki both trying all that… | Leopard 10.5 | 2,876 reads 2008-01-30 · 8 notes |
