Tomorrow FedEx is supposed to get my iBook to me around 10:30 and I can barely wait. I have some (stupid) questions concerning iBook Maintanence and other things a stupid neophyte would ask.
1. What should I do when I first get my iBook. Hardware Tests, charging, etc. (This has been asked before, but I thought it would be alright if I did grouped with these other questions)
2. What is your program/schedule/routine for maintaining and keeping your iBook quick and clean.
3. Do you use programs like Macjanitor and Onyx? Which ones do you recommend and what do they do?
4. How often should I reset the PRAM, if at all. Also, am I right in thinking that the PRAM holds some system information like time, startup volume, and time zone settings?
5. How often should I repair permissions, and what exactly does it do?
6. What are the effects of the built-in early morning maintenance programs? If you are using the computer while it is running, what will you notice different?
7. Do you know of a free icon changing application for OS X?
Thanks for taking the time to read these questions. I realize some of these may have been asked before and apologize if it is obnoxiously redundant. I will most likely post more questions as time goes on.
