Hi there,


my buddy just got his first Mac ever (after my recommendation). Unfortunately he gets an error message every time he starts the machine: "Could not open the communication device".

The error is from the program: Internet Connect.

He also receives this error whenever he opens Safari or any other web-using software.

He has a Macbook Pro with Mac OS X 10.4.10.

I created a new user account and the problem persists there.


I would be eternally grateful for any hint in the right direction. Thank you.
 
Get him to upgrade to Leopard: They removed Internet Connect. ;)

Lol. I told him the same thing. He's also eligible for a 9,95$ leopard (he just got his Mac this month)

But, seriously...anybody have any more ideas?

Thanks.
