Is there any program to set the theme of x11 gnome applications under Mac OS X?
I've installed macports and gnome, but I cant find the gnome-theme-manager that I'm using when under linux.
I am using iTerm in OS X. When I run screen, the terminal is resized and I get the message
Aborted because of window size change.
However, screen is still running.
How do I get it to stop resizing my terminal?
When I open Terminal it periodically tells me 'You have new mail.', some of which comes from testing web applications that I am running on localhost, which try to send it.
I find the command line mail application impossible to use.
Is there a way to read this mailbox from the OS X Mail application?
Note, there's already a question on this regard, but it's totally useless.
I need to blur, or put a small opaque mask to a moving object on a movie I took, I am using Mac OS X. Clearly, I don't want to shell out a lot of money for something so simple, so getting Adobe Premiere or similar software is a no go. I could however consider paying a small software (max 30 dollars) for this specific task.

Is there a way to manipulate icons on an Mac OS X file from either Automator or the terminal?
In my case, I want to remove custom icons (that is, the same as doing 'Get Info' and Edit-Cut on the icon) from a large number of files.
Are there any real-time sound levelling applications for OS X? Something that can even-out the loud and quiet scenes of movies so that I don't have to keep reaching for the remote? I don't want to re-encode or permanently change any video/audio files, however.
With Windows there is is an option from the taskbar to tile windows horizontally or vertically. Is there someway to replicate this feature in Mac OS X?
Every 10 seconds, something like the following appears in the Mac OS X system log:

How can I associate a UID to a specific username on IBM z/OS Unix System Services?
Within USS, I see content created in my user space which I do not own. File ownership lists a three digit numerical value, rather than a userid, which I presume to be a UID. I've unsuccessfully attempted to make a username association using commands:
tsocmd "search class(USER) uid(###)"
tsocmd "rlist unixmap u### all"
I've been using Mac OS X's VNC service to connect remotely from a Windows XP box, via TightVNC. Everything seems to work normally, except that frequently - anywhere from ten seconds to ten minutes - the connection locks up entirely, without any sort of error message. The only solution is to reconnect and wait for it to lock up again.
How can this be fixed permanently?
Hi,
I notice the message:
Firewall[313] portmap is listening from 0.0.0.0:111 proto=6
repeated on my logs ever 30 seconds. How can I disable portmap (not using NFS or anything like that so I assume I have no need for it).
I already tried Lingon.app and disabled com.apple.portmap from there, but that didn't help at all as portmap is still running after i rebooted.
What would be the proper way to disable portmap and stop the service without having to reboot on Mac OS X 10.6.

Hi,
Toast Titanium 10 offers a way of mounting an image into a virtual DVD drive so that it is viewed as being a separate physical drive by other applications.
I was wondering if there was a way of achieving the same result using the built-in OS X tools (whether GUI or command line), as I am aware it has many of such built in.
Thanks in advance!
What is the last version of Skype that runs on a Mac OS X Panther 10.3.9 ?
I've download a so called compatible version but it doesn't start.
I've also heard that it can be a problem coming from Quicktime version...
Using Mac OS on multiple monitor is great, but after removing external monitor (2nd monitor) usually windows position originally on the external monitor doesn't get re-positioned to default monitor. Is there any shortcut key or utilities that can reset window position for this kind of usage?

This may have been asked before, but I'm wondering whether there is a shortcut for navigating to the enclosing folder in OS X (Snow Leopard)?
I find navigating Finder particularly frustrating since it's hard navigating back to the enclosing folder (especially when you jump to a folder and realize the back button is disabled)...
I'm hoping for something other than Command+Up, since that's the key combination I use to navigate Spaces.
After googling for some Mac OS X terminal shortcuts, I wanted to find how can I go back characters on a line on the terminal or words or similar. I found ALT + B but it does not work.
Do you know some other shortcuts, or how can I customize them or links to cheat sheets?
I have a OS X 10.6 install working, with Apache and PHP installed.
However, I cannot get mod_rewrite working. The contents of my httpd.conf is located here: http://pastie.org/828990
Does anyone know what vital thing I'm missing?
I'd like to see the dot hidden files in the Finder but not on the Desktop, is that possible?
(.localized and .DS_Store on my desktop really annoy me.)
I'm using Snow Leopard (Mac OS X v10.6).
How could I enable syntax highlighting on the shell and in emacs when I use Terminal.app on Mac OS X to ssh into other machines? Right now if I ssh and do an "ls" for example, directories are not shown in a different color from flat files, for example, and I'd like to fix that.
thanks.
