I'm having trouble with my network setup (whenever I try to change
some setting, then press the "Apply now" button, the beachball starts
spinning and I have to force-quit system preferences).
So I was thinking that deleting the network preferences configuration
file would be an idea, so I searched the web and found information
here:
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/tg.online/osx/sysprefs/
where it tells me that the file in question is located at:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
so I delete this file, then open up the "Network" control panel again,
but now I get a spinning beachball just by trying to open it! What
gives?
I'm using MacOS 10.4.11 on a Powerbook G4.
