The Desktop is one of the busiest areas of any Mac. Since it's the easiest place to get to quickly, and you can (almost) always see it, many people use it as a place to put frequently used items, work in progress, and even permanent files and folders. If you've chosen to show mounted volumes on the Desktop, you also use it to access those volumes. Here are a few tips to help you get to it more easily and make it work better for you.

Where/What Is the Desktop Really?

If you're a veteran of Mac OS 9 or earlier, you probably know that the Desktop was actually an invisible folder called Desktop Folder at the root level of the hard drive. If you had multiple hard drives, each of them had their own Desktop Folder. These Desktop Folders were shared by all users.

In Mac OS X, because each user has their own Desktop, the Desktop is handled a bit differently. It's still a folder; however, each user has their own Desktop folder, located at ~/Desktop (I actually mentioned these folders in Chapter 1). If you look at your own Desktop folder, you'll find it contains everything that is visible on the Desktop of your computer (except mounted volumes, of course).

View Options for the Desktop

If you select the Desktop (by clicking anywhere on it), and then choose View ➣ Show View Options, the View Options window will appear (it will say 'Desktop' in the title bar), and will present you with options specific to the Desktop (Figure 5.5). You can choose the size of Desktop icons, ranging from tiny (16 × 16 pixels) to huge (128 × 128 pixels). You can also choose the text size of Finder labels (file names, item info, etc.), as well as choose whether you want those labels to appear below or to the right of Finder icons.

The 'Snap to grid' setting, if checked, keeps Finder icons arranged in a neat grid; you can drop an icon anywhere, and it will instantly snap to the closest grid space.

'Show item info' provides additional info about an item directly below the item's name; the actual info provided differs depending on the item. For volumes, you'll see the total space used on the volume and the free space remaining; folders will show the number of items (files or folders) at the root level of each folder; info on graphics files will include the dimensions of the picture (in pixels); and movie and sound files will be listed with the length of the movie or sound.

If you select 'Show icon preview,' any graphics files (GIF, JPG, TIFF, etc.) that contain an icon preview will use those icons instead of their default file type icons.

Finally, 'Keep arranged by' allows you to keep files and folders arranged by name, kind, date modified, date created, or size (always in ascending order), so items with a filename or type that starts with 'A,' older items, and smaller items will be listed first. Note that if you've checked 'Keep arranged by,' and you've also selected to show mounted volumes on the Desktop (in Finder Preferences) the boot volume will always be listed first, followed by other mounted volumes, then files and folders.

Accessing the Desktop (Especially When It's Hidden)

I'm sure you've been faced with this situation before—you need to open a file you've placed on the Desktop, but you can't see it because of all the windows that are open. Although the Desktop is extremely handy in terms of providing quick access to files, one of the biggest obstacles most people experience in using the Desktop for this purpose is that it is often obscured by Finder and/or application windows. Fortunately, under OS X there are many ways to get around this obstacle. I've included a few here. (These methods are useful even when the Desktop isn't obscured; I use a couple of them as my regular method of accessing Desktop files and folders.)

Note that unless otherwise noted, the tip table for this section applies to all of the following tips.

Hiding Everything but the Finder

If you're trying to get to the Desktop, but you have a number of application windows open, you can just hide all applications except for the Finder. There are actually two ways to do this: if the Finder is active (the current application) hold down the command and option keys and click the Finder icon in the Dock. All other applications will be hidden. If another application is active (frontmost), you can use the same procedure, or you can hold command+option and click anywhere on the Desktop itself to get the same results.

Hiding Everything Including Finder Windows

The only drawback to the method I just described is that if you have a number of Finder windows open, they won't be hidden (so they may still obscure the Desktop). You can minimize each Finder window to the Dock by clicking the yellow minimize button in the top left corner, or you can minimize all Finder windows at once by holding option as you click any window's minimize button.

However, that's a bit of a pain. Instead you can use the donationware Show Desktop (http://www.everydaysoftware.net/). When launched, the Show Desktop icon appears in the Dock just like any other application. When you click it, it will hide all running applications, and has a preference to automatically minimize all Finder windows, as well. Shift-click the Show Desktop icon in the Dock and all windows and applications will be revealed again.

Accessing Desktop Contents Directly

If your goal isn't necessarily to view the Desktop, but to simply access files or folders that reside there, you can do so in a number of ways without having to hide or close Finder and application windows. Here are a few quick solutions.

Accessing Desktop Contents from a Finder Window

In terms of accessing files and folders that reside on the Desktop, the first thing to remember is that the Desktop is simply a folder, just like any other folder in Mac OS X. Because of this, you can easily access its contents in any Finder window. Simply navigate to your home folder, and open the folder named Desktop. Any file or folder on your Desktop resides in this folder, and you can perform any actions on them here that you could by accessing them on the Desktop itself.

Accessing Desktop Contents from the Dock

As I'll discuss in more depth in Chapter 6, you can place any folder in the Dock and access its contents easily. If you put the previous tips and this one together, you'll see that you can actually put your Desktop folder in the Dock. To do this, simply navigate to your home directory in the Finder and then drag the folder Desktop to the Dock (you'll have to drag it to the right of the Dock's divider line). You'll then see an icon in the Dock that looks like the Desktop.

If you click and hold on the Desktop icon in the Dock (or control/right-click), a menu will pop up, listing the contents of the Desktop folder (which are simply any items sitting on your Desktop) (Figure 5.6). Selecting an item will open it directly. If any of the items are folders, you'll notice an arrow next to their names, indicating a hierarchical menu. Thus from this menu you can open any file on the Desktop, as well as any file within any folder on the Desktop.

Accessing Desktop Contents Using MaxMenus

Along the same lines as the previous hint, numerous third-party add-ons allow you to easily access the contents of the Desktop. My personal favorite is MaxMenus (http://www.proteron.com/), which lets you create multiple menus, each with different contents. After you've installed Max-Menus, you can easily create a menu for the Desktop:

1. Open System Preferences and select the MaxMenus preference pane; click on the Menus tab.

2. Choose where you'd like the menu to appear from the Choose Menu pop-up. I personally use the Lower Right setting, as it's closer to the Dock where the mouse cursor tends to be a lot anyway, but another of my favorites is the 'Menubar empty area,' which lets me click on any empty area of the menu bar to access my custom menu.

3. In the list of available items on the right, click Desktop and drag it to the menu items list on the left (Figure 5.7).

   
   Figure 5.7: Creating a Desktop menu in MaxMenus Rat-a-tat mac os.

4. You can choose extra options for the menu by clicking the Edit… button next to the Choose Menu pop-up. For example, you can change the color of the menu symbol that will appear in the specified corner of the screen, and you can choose to access the menu by a simple mouse click, a combination of keys and the mouse, or via a keyboard combination.

5. When you're finished, close System Preferences. Your new menu will be accessible in the corner (or menu bar area) you've chosen.

   Now that we've covered the Desktop, let's talk about Finder windows.

The Beige G3 is a third-generation Power Mac. It has a new motherboard with a faster system bus than earlier models, a third-generation PowerPC CPU, uses a completely different type of memory, has a different way of upgrading the CPU, and includes a personality card slot. The Power Mac G3 comes in desktop and minitower configurations and replaces the 7300, 8600, and 9600.

The PowerPC 750 (G3) CPU was the first processor designed specifically for the way Macintosh works. Code compatible with the 603e, the G3 was tweaked based on the software Macintosh users ran. This moved the 'entry level' chip past the previous powerhouse, the 604e, even at lower clock speeds. Macworld's SpeedMark showed the 233 MHz is 22% faster than the 233 MHz 604e in the 9600/233.

The 233 MHz model usually comes in a similar desktop case to the 7200-7600. Because of the smaller motherboard, it has room for one more drive – mounted on the bottom of the desktop case itself. (The G3/233 was also available in a tower configuration, but only from the Apple Store.)

The 266 MHz version was available in either a desktop or tower configuration. The tower is a new design, essentially a shorter version of the well-received 8600 case. The G3 tower typically comes with a Zip 100 drive, leaving one free 5.25″ expansion bay for a removable media drive.

For the first time, Apple shipped a Power Mac with a top notch EIDE hard drive that holds its own against SCSI-2 drives. It was a bit of a paradigm shift, but one the Mac OS community eventually embraced, since it made buying bigger, faster hard drives much more affordable. (Although 16.7 MB/sec. IDE was fast in 1997, it's a real bottleneck with newer drives. To really unleash their performance, consider a faster IDE/UltraATA controller that fits in one of the G3's PCI slots.)

The CPU with backside cache plugs into a ZIF socket on the motherboard. Curious users have already found ways to boost performance by changing jumper settings.

Considering the cost of an upgrade daughter card plus a 6 MB SCSI hard drive on an older Power Mac or clone, buying a new the G3/233 was a viable alternative to upgrading an older computer. On top of that, it has a faster CD-ROM, handles more VRAM, provides an extra drive bay (vs. 7200-7600), has a faster system bus, uses less costly IDE/UltraATA drives, and supports less expensive G3 and G4 upgrades.

Oddities

Early Beige G3s could not support slave drives, as these machines (generally) had Rev. 1 motherboards and Rev. A ROMs. Later Beige G3s with Rev. 2 motherboards and Rev. B or C ROMs do support slave drives. Although the inability to support slave drives under the Classic Mac OS is inherent in the Rev. A ROM, OS X has a mechanism for supplementing the ROM code and allowing the use of slave drives.

You can use the Apple System Profiler to identify which ROM version you have:

• Rev. 1: $77D.40F2
• Rev. 2: $77D.45F1
• Rev. 3: $77D.45F2

Because of its issues, we consider the Beige G3 with a Rev. 1 motherboard a Limited Mac.

If you have an IDE hard drive larger than 8 GB, you should partition is so that the first partition is under 8 GB in size (for simplicity, we suggest 7 GB). Failure to do this could eventually result in an unbootable computer, as all system files must be within the first 8 GB of drive space. These Macs may work successfully with larger drives for a while, but once any system files goes outside of the first 8 GB of space, you'll have nothing but problems. This applies to both Mac OS X and the Classic Mac OS.

Mac OS X

If you have a hard drive over 8 GB in size, you must partition it or you will not be able to install Mac OS X. If you are creating the partition within OS X, it must be smaller than 7.4 GB as reported by Disk Utility (because sometimes a GB is billion bytes and sometimes it's 1,073,741,824 bytes); we suggest simply setting it at 7 GB to avoid having to redo the whole installation if the partition ends up bigger than specified (it happens). Mac OS X must be completely within the first 8 GB of space on your hard drive or you will not be able to run OS X.

You can only boot OS X from a 'master' drive in the Beige G3. This applies to hard drives and CD-ROM drives. If the CD-ROM is set to slave, you will not be able to install OS X. If the hard drive is set to slave, you will not be able to boot from it.

Non-Apple upgrades and peripherals (such as unsupported USB devices, replacement drives, and third-party memory) may cause problems when installing or booting into Mac OS X, so you may need to remove them.

Be sure to read and follow Apple's 'Read Before You Install' instructions to increase the likelihood of getting OS X installed and running on the first try.

The Beige G3 is not officially supported under OS X 10.3 Panther, but it does work with 10.2.8 Jaguar and earlier. Panther can be installed using XPostFacto 3, although built-in video is not currently supported.

Cautions

New on this model, data on the RAM Disk is lost during a restart. Apple also notes that the 100 MHz Pentium PC Compatibility card is incompatible, although this seems to be due to an audio cable problem. There are also early reports that the G3 will not stay asleep.

Other compatibility issues:

• GeoPort Modem not supported
• QTC and AMC not supported
• Must disconnect LocalTalk if using ethernet
• Needs updated drivers for StyleWriter 4100 & 4500
• Needs new ethernet driver for use on 10/100 autosensing hubs
• LocalTalk printing slow on busy networks
• Apple TokenRing card not supported

Some of these issues were addressed by later versions of the Mac OS.

When buying a G4 upgrade for the Beige G3, make sure it is compatible with this model's 66 MHz bus. Pulled G4s from Apple's Yikes! Power Mac G4 and some OEM G4s are specifically designed for a 100 MHz bus and will not work properly in the Beige G3.

Because of the case design, be sure to specify low profile (1.15″ maximum height) DIMMs when purchasing memory for the desktop version.

The Beige G3 supports 256 MB DIMMs, but they must be built using 128 Mb chips. DIMMs built with 256 Mb chips will work, but the memory controller will only see the first 128 Mb of each chip. Compatible 256 MB DIMMs will have 16 memory chips, 8 on each side.

Cautions

• Power Macs earlier than the Quicksilver models do not have built-in support for IDE hard drives with capacities over 128 GB. Without a third-party solution, larger drives can only be formatted to 128 GB in these models. There are three options:
  • A PCI IDE card that supports big drives
  • A FireWire enclosure that supports big drives
• Upgrades Put Some Beige G3s in Jeopardy, Macworld, 2000.03.30. Macs with Royal Technology voltage regulator must replace that component before installing any CPU upgrade.
• Apple has discovered the cause of the dim video problem with the audio/video personality card in the Power Mac G3s. Contact Apple or your Apple dealer for a new card that fixes the problem.
• If you have a Revision 2 motherboard (one way to tell: the System CD is blue, not white), your G3 supports up to four IDE/ATA drives (two masters and two slaves). However, it cannot boot from an internal ATAPI Zip drive (which is what Apple installs with the Rev. 2 board) unless the disk has Iomega driver 6.0 or later with Enabler 777 in the Mac OS 8.1 System Folder or a later version of the Mac OS. Earlier Iomega drivers do not support ATAPI Zip drives. (Apple TIL)
• Macs with IDE hard drives do not provide SCSI termination power, depending on external SCSI devices to provide it. For more details, see SCSI Termination Power.
