    iPod wrecked startup drive

    I found my answer in the itunes keyboard shortcuts help: iPod shortcuts Prevent iPod from automatically updating when you connect it to your computer: Command-Option as you connect the iPod to your computer (hold the keys down until the iPod appears in the iTunes Source list). Just to...

    iPod wrecked startup drive

    I'm not too bothered about putting the music back onto my mac at the moment, just don't wanna lose it from my ipod. I've had a look in itunes prefs and there is no section for ipods. If anyone can confirm that the mac will indeed ask if it is to be the 'home' machine I'll risk that. Is there any...

    iPod wrecked startup drive

    Hi there I just got my 40gb iPod today, and amidst all the excitement I seem to have wrecked my main startup disk. I transferred my entire 18gb iTunes library to my iPod via firewire and the dock. All went ok. I left the iPod charging for about half an hour on the dock while I was away...

    How the iPod Changed My Life

    My very first iPod is being delivered tomorrow (Tuesday). I can't wait!! I went for the big 40gb and I don't think I'll be disapointed. I've never seen one in 'real life' or never known anyone who's had one. They've only been a dream on a magazine page, or on a web site. So, apart from reading...

    Next generation iPods - When?

    I've just ordered a 40gb iPod... should be here within a couple of days. I'm like a kid at Christmas, can't wait - it's my first iPod!! :) Hope they don't bring out the next generation too soon, but 40gb is enough for me I only have about 18gb of music at the moment and will use it to backup too.

    Some changes for 10.4

    What about its name.... which big cat would you like to see next?? We've had Cheetah, Puma, Jaguar & Panther. Should Apple even continue with this theme? Personally, I think so, I like it but eventually they'll run out of cats!!

    What to do to keep OS X runnin in top shape?

    Same here.... only had 1 kernel panic in all releases of OSX. OSX is very solid & reliable. I repair permissions every now and again, and when I do restart I 'fsck -f' Panther. Current uptime is 18 days 12 hours without any noticeable lag in performance. Longest in the past has been nearly 1...

    Anyone Manchester, Uk tomorrow (Feb 17)?

    One last comment off topic before we go back to Macs! The whole trouble LUFC are in now can be traced back to THAT incident with Bowyer & Woodgate... I blame them, and they've both bailed!! The club has never been right since then. On topic - where do the guys in the UK buy their Apple stuff...

    Anyone Manchester, Uk tomorrow (Feb 17)?

    Octane... how that man can be allowed to carry on as if nothing ever happened is beyond me. He should be made accountable and accept responsibility and never be allowed to work in business again - God help Barnsley. It's been confirmed today that someone has bought Leeds for £30m - Marching...

    Anyone Manchester, Uk tomorrow (Feb 17)?

    It's very rare that a good reason comes up for me to cross the Pennines into enemy territory ;) (although I will be at Old Trafford this w/end as the Mighty Whites are there). Wish I had a few quid to spare to pick up a few bargains. After these types of auctions do they re-publish the lots...

    Problem with Mail and Safari...

    Thankyou...that worked. I did look in the mail prefs to see if you could change the default browser but couldn't find anything there. Never thought to check Safari prefs. I do have another partition with 10.3 on. This is a totally clean install with no updates etc so will still have 1.1 on...

    Problem with Mail and Safari...

    I am using 10.3.2 and the new version of Safari 1.2(v125). If Safari is closed and I click a link in Mail, then OSX opens the previous version of Safari 1.1(v100) to display the link. How can I get it to use the newer version? If Safari(1.2) is open and I click a link in Mail then it opens in a...
