Revitalize, Restore, and Renew Your Mac

Even the fastest runners and most accomplished ballerinas don’t spend all their time running or dancing. The human body requires rest and rejuvenation—and so does your Mac. But just turning it off while you sleep isn’t enough. There are a variety of ways you can help your Mac regain its youthful vigor. But we know you’re busy. So rather than provide you with a list of tricky, expensive upgrades, we gathered a dozen-plus quick, refreshing ways to give your Mac a mini spa vacation. When you’re done, it’ll feel (almost) like new. Kind of like how you felt the last time you dusted off your yoga mat or got a massage.

Process Wizard looks great but it doesn't run correctly on my G4 running 10.4.8. when I launch it no window opens up. Activity monitor shows it running, but nothing is on the screen or in the dock. The latest note in the instructions file that comes with it says now Jaguar compatible.

I've seen entire books on this topic that didn't give as much helpful info as what you've presented here. Great stuff...thank you.

"Validate Font" is found under "File", not "Edit" as described in an otherwise awesome feature article.

I'm surprised that you didn't mention the very useful utility Disk Inventory X, which visually represents your hard drive with blocks of proportional size and color by related type. I have used this utility to find and delete large portions of data that I never use, like World Book and some Garage Band loops and music. I would highly recommend Disk Inventory X for anyone crammed for hard drive space who doesn't know what else to delete for more space.

I had been having serious problems with the fonts on my computer after i carelessly installed a ridiculous amount of them. I THOUGHT i deleted them all but still had problems but that font nuke program you linked to was amazing and everything is all fixed now! Thanks so much for being on google!

i can't seem to figure out how to do the "dock your desktop" part. where what ever you download will automatically place it in the new folder you created in the dock. it's not working for me. how do i set it as a default download location???

When we got to the step in FontBook where you are to remove the fonts that "errored," we used the drop-down menu to just view those few fonts. On that screen, we chose the checkbox to select all, thinking it was just going to choose those bad fonts. We hit Remove and to our dismay, ALL our fonts were removed, not just the bad ones. We recovered 13 from our Tiger system disk. Is there a way to get back all the fonts we used to have under our previous system, 10.2.8 (none were third-party)?

I went thru my G4 Power Mac running 10.4 Tiger and deleted all the various languages I wouldn't be using and rendered Mail and iCal unusable. Luckily I could recover the files and get them going again, but they were definitely hosed after removing those "extra" files.

I don't see how only english or one lanuage
would limit mail or iCal. Unless you are going into area that require this. I have intell core 2 duo, 1 g ram, 74.5 g hd, 13.3" screen. I have tried to take off all "foreign" lanuages of no use to me since I don't speak or write any. It doesn't seem to bother anything. Only if the programs or users need that to function or
understand would it, on the outside, cause it not to work.
