I have installed Fedora Core 4 on my MAC computer, but now I cannot dual boot Fedora and Mac OS X. It always boots into Fedora, and I cant even choose what OS to boot. Is there program to fix this issue? Or maybe some little script to fix this? I still experiment with Linux, so I dont know that very much about this OS.

I can help you. I experimented with several Linux distributions and with Mac OS X. I had the bad luck to three times reinstall both operating systems. Lol. For the Linux the base bootstrap loader program is called Yaboot. The thing is to change the line in Yaboot configuration file that states which is the default operating system. The second and crucial thing is to install new bootstrap loader configuration. It will do the rest by itself. After this you will have several critical seconds to choose what OS to boot up.
