Hi, My G-Tech external 500 GB drive arrived today and I'm about to partition it. It was already formatted at the factory as Mac OS Extended and it says it's 465.5 GB big and 180.8 MB have been used and there are 3 folders and 10 files. When I double click on the drive it's empty so not sure...

Thank you both for replying. S.

Mikuro, Thanks, I tried demo mode yesterday but it took so long so I'm retrying it today. S.

Mikuro, Thanks, I don't care about apps or that stuff just the personal files that's all. I don't have a recent backup (I did a very partial backup over a year ago on a disk for some of my hard drive files but it's something). Some things are on my sister's machine which I'm living on now. I...

Mikuro, Okay so if I used Data recovery would I first have to do a clean install to get it back to Mac then use Data Recovery to see what I can get? I'm not using that XP disk at all. It just starts up in PC mode every time it goes on. I'm afraid to do anything. Should I do a clean install...

lurk, Thanks, I don't even think bringing it in will help at this point either. S.

Hi, My sister was using my computer and wanted to use Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 in VMWare so booted a CD of Windows on my machine. There was a part that said you could put XP on the partition available so when she hit Enter it said that it couldn't be done but that she could go...

Satcomer, Thanks for the link and info. S.

Madelin, Thanks. S.

Hi, Okay I was all set to get the Lacie d2 Quadra 500 GB drive for $296.00 Canadian as I'd heard from others it was a good one to buy. Then I was on apple.ca yesterday and saw the G-Tech G-DRIVE Q 500GB Quad Interface Hard Drive for $319.00 Canadian and I get Macworld and that is always on...

Hi, I'm just wondering when or if Office 2008 is coming out anytime soon. I heard there is a 2008 trial but have no idea where to find it. S.

eric2006, Thanks, you are a lifesaver. :) Maybe I can help someone with this down the road. I clicked Privacy and then Banner and took it off and it works now for Firefox. How do I solve this for Safari though. Maybe there is the same type of banner block in Net Shade? Nevermind it works in...

eric2006, Thanks. Yes I have NetBarrier installed but it's not on at the moment and also added NetShade for Safari to try it out but it's not on either. Is there a way to Fix this within NetBarrier and NetShade? S.

Hi, Okay so I added a new account to my accounts section and was trying to change main account folder to new account name. It's a long story but was changing account name folders back and forth but don't think that affects my new problem. I cannot get onto sitemeter.com using Safari and...

eric2006, Thanks. S.

eric2006, Thanks, I've done the first link part but think I messed it up. Here is what I did: So I went to sister's name and added _new on the end. Then went to the new name and renamed it sister's name and it said there is already one with that name. So now in Users I have the sister's name...

Hello, I did something stupid and didn't realize it at the time. So you know how you open your finder window and you have the various names on the left. Well normally you have a users section and mine is my sisters name. So everytime I upload a photo to someone it says...

fryke, Oh I'm not disagreeing with you, just thought you hadn't seen the article. All I was doing was posting what I'd read. S.

fryke, The title on Yahoo was called that. The link pulls up this for me: "Small Number" of iPod Touch Screens Faulty Thu Sep 20, 2007 3:59PM EDT See Comments (137) Apple has admitted that a "small number" of the screens on its new iPod Touch have trouble displaying dark images...

Just found this on Yahoo and thought it might be useful to people who have these faulty iPod Touches. http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/patterson/6389 S.
