Make sure that the Palm Desktop software is set to the user account of the Palm - "HotSync... Users..". I've had this happen, and IIRC, it had created a "Default" account, and had chosen that for the desktop, while syncing my personal account seperately. Chose the right account, and all my data...

I am one of those people. Right now, I use a WindowsXP machine with a modem hanging off it to be my dial-up point, but I may seriously have to think about A.E. if it can do this as seamlessly as it sounds. I use my dialup just as it's been discussed here - access to the internet via dialup...

Perhaps slightly off-topic, but here goes.. If your only interested in the MP3 playback (not photos), and don't already have a 2nd Gen Tivo, you might consider a different bit of hardware: the SliMP3 - http://www.slimp3.com/index.html The SliMP3 is a dedicated mp3 head-end for an audio...

:rolleyes: I don't buy it. When the spooks get to reading all our email (and, yes, maybe they already are), we're not gonna see their database error messages. Ever. Expecially not in a web-mail app. It seems just as likely that CSIS means, in this context, 'Canada Secure Internet Site'. Who...

BT is right. The best way to do xDSL is via ethernet. Drivers for USB xDSL modems are still a bit scarce (I belive that the Alcatel has 'em, but not much else), and you'd be sharing the bandwidth of the USB chain with other devices, possibly impacting perfomance. With ethernet, no such...

It's available through Fink, assuming you have Fink already.

So, I went home, and installed this last night. My first reaction was "wow!". This has got to be one of the fastest X implementations I've ever seen. I was playing around with X-chat and the Gimp, among other things, and they felt just as responsive as any of the other Carbon/Cocoa apps on my...

... you heartless clod. No wonder you never sent flowers... ;)

Well, I don't know about any source files, but... :) There are an awful lot of X11 apps that will compile and run correctly on MacOSX if you have an X server on your machine. For instance, I use the Gimp, and BitchX-gtk (IRC client), and a few other assorted apps that have not been ported...

Apple's website has already begun to show the new stuff. Man... the 'epic' tiBook is just too sweet... :)

I just hope that Safari doesn't do what IE does to appear to perform so well: http://grotto11.com/blog/slash.html?+1039831658 http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/01/05/2025254&mode=thread&tid=113

Geez... Isn't this horse already dead???

I was thinking that maybe changing channels on the airport connection might get it out of the BT adaptor's way. More experimentation is needed, for sure. I didn't expect that it would reduce the phone's standby time by more than half, though. That's a bit of a surprise, but I agree - the...

Man, this is really really cool! I can even reply to and originate SMS messages with this. But, as always, there's a couple of catches: First, I was doing this with my iBook and the Belkin USB BT adaptor, and I noticed that I was having a great deal of difficulty with websites loading very...

I don't have the full-on lab facilities to MEASURE the Belkin range; I was merely quoting what Belkin claims. However, while the Ambicom has trouble remaining reachable for more than 8-10 feet, the Belkin seems reachable for at least 40 feet. This is an informal test at my house, using the T68i...

I just discovered something very useful (to me at least) over the weekend. I've done a quick search of the forums for the last few months, and didn't see any mention of this, so forgive me if this is not new to anyone. As you all know, Jaguar has on-board support for Bluetooth, and the Apple...

I think fryke's concern is that if you contribute to the Mozilla project, you indirectly support AOL/TW/Netscape's efforts - whether that's submitting bug reports, crash reports, or actually work on the code itself. Turning off Talkback certainly curbs part of this participation, to be sure, but...

Actually, iMic is good stuff. It may be the cheapest option. If you want to go high end, Digigram has a number of cards. They even claim MacOSX compatibilty. They look pretty sweet. These things come at a price, though. They're apparently aimed at the pro musician, and so the VxPocket v2...

I had this very problem. I'd set up a machine with Apache, PHP and mySql, and every time a user would connect after several minutes of idle time (hey, it's not a high-volume site :) ), it would take forever for the page to display in their browser. Other times, it was nearly instant if the drive...

I'd try a verbose-boot (CMD-V just after the startup chime until you see boot messages start) to find out where it's stopping. Could be memory or harddrive, but this should give you a better clue than our guessing at it... ;)
