Anybody notice the iTMS is "unavailable" with an error 5555? Could this be a music store update (perhaps for tomorrow's keynote)?

The original GUI idea yes, but not the more recent advances that this thread talks about (expose, searching, etc...). That is just straight M$ copying from Apple (which they can barely do well anyways).

OR simply push the power button (don't hold it down), and then press the 's' key....

To the demise of Power Computing and the like, this is why the clone program was pulled. The OS was selling well, but the hardware sales were being outcompeted by the clone competition. Apple makes the largest part of its profit from hardware, therefore, allowing it to run on any beige box PC...

the "widget" widget should also be able to delete them (click on the red circle with a white line through it to move the offending widget to the trash).

Is the key repeat rate/delay until repeat in the Keyboard&Mouse control panel set too high? Try setting the delay until repeat rate to 'Off'

I get this message too when I send mail from home (mail is set up to use my work's outgoing SMTP server). I have to use my isp's outgoing mail server when I am at home and this window will pop up and ask me to change it after a minute or so. Make sure that you have set up the SMTP info...

go back to about this mac. click on the more info button closer to the bottom of the panel. once the system profiler window pops up, you can select the tab that says "software" (should have a disclosure triangle next to it) in the side panel. Once that is clicked, In the main window your...

try running the hardware test found on the OS install cd/dvd. Hold down option key as you start up and select hardware test. May give you some more info (or at least tell you if it is a hardware problem or not).

I agree with iNoob. Better to get a new CD/DVD-Rom drive than put OSX on an iPod. iPods are designed for infrequent disk use. Putting an OS on the iPod (although neat) would shorten the drive life of the iPod significantly. If you are just transfering the OS over (which I don't know if it is...

Since you can web surf, can you just try downloading the update that is having problems directly from Apple as a stand-alone installer?

I believe this was also the case with iTunes 4.9, if I remember correctly. Hey, iTunes needs a place to store all these podcasts, why not keep them in the library (considering that the purpose of the Library is to hold ALL of your digital medial; be it audio book, music, music video, or podcast)?

There should be a migration utility on the new iMac that will take care of most of everything (check Applications->Utilities->Migration assistant).

17 inch-> It is a bit big when you first have it, and it is big when you carry it around, but once you open it up and use it (lap or desk) the extra real-estate is definitly worth it. The 15 inch seems small comparativly, and the 12 inch is microscopic.

try uplugging it (i.e. turning the modem off completely) for about 10 minutes. your isp may cycle through/update the ip addresses it hands out to all of its customers and you may then end up with a better one. hope this helps. good luck!

How would one make such art? It isn't coded by hand is it (if it is, WOW, that's a lot of work)?

Going on a bit about it being the software, not the hardware; it would be interesting to see, now that the transition to intel is happening, whether Apple will keep developing PPC along with intel once the switch is over (just in case it needs to switch back). This is a bit of a paradigm shift...

hmm. something funny with your pcmcia slot maybe? take out the pcmcia card. IF you still have your system disks, put in the software install and restore DVD and reboot, hold down the option key as the computer reboots and select apple hardware test. Run the diagnostic and see what it says...

Random thought... Did you have the airport card installed or did you do it yourself? It may be that the antena connection to the airport card is lose or not connected. It's not that hard to get to (under the battery, behind a little flip down door). See if reconnecting the antena will help...
