I'm planning on going to the Apple Store in Short Hills. It's a bigger store than the one in Menlo Park. Although, I could always swing by the Menlo Park store on my way home! :D Maybe I'll run into you ...

You could use Image Capture (comes with Mac OS X) to transfer images from your camera to your Mac. It's in your Applications folder. As a matter of fact, that's what starts up iPhoto when you connect your camera. Image Capture will let you import either all your images, or only some of them...

Sure, I guess. I've never done it before, but I don't think it would be too difficult. Thanks. Marc

Check out Graphic Converter. It comes with every Mac, is shareware, and will do exactly what you need it to do. Regards, Marc

They recommend using the PowerBook on a flat surface (like a table) as opposed to your lap or a pillow so that air can circulate underneath. The reason the case feels warm is because aluminum is an excellent conductor of heat; essentially the case is one big heat sink. If you're real concerned...

Good point ... I didn't catch the BTW. Thanks.

I don't think it's the word "forum as I just noticed another post with that word in the title. More than likely the problem is the forward slash "/", as that is a path delimiter in Mac OS X (and unix, Linux, ect). Marc

It absolutely does; and it's very smooth, too! Marc

If this is one of the new PowerBooks (the ones with the two finger scroll and Sudden Motion Sensor) it could be that the Sudden Motion Sensor is detecting the tilt and parking the hard drive heads. This was designed to protect the hard drive in the event of a fall. Regards, Marc

Just wanted to let you know I decided not to sell this after all. Thanks.

This case is custom made for a Powerbook Titanium G4, and is in great shape. I bought it on EBay, not realizing it was made for a Titanium. As a result, my aluminum Powerbook is a tad snug; that's why I want to sell it. It's in great shape; no rips or tears. It's in a non-smoking home. Ask...

You're welcome!

Hi Eric, You can do one of two things: (By the way, these instructions are based on iMovie 05) 1) Select a clip and click on Edit ..Copy, then create a new project and paste it in, or 2) A better way would be to click on the Share menu, where you can either export for E-Mail or the web...

I sent my powerbook back to Apple for repair; the display had the "white spot" issue that plagued a number of 15" powerbooks. So, when I get it back it will have a brand new display! (Maybe I'll keep it ...)

Hi, I bought this as a Refurb from Apple in March of 2004. It is configured as follows: 1.25 GHz G4 1 Gig ram 80 Gig Hard Drive DVD/CDRW Combo Drive Backlit Keyboard Bluetooth and Airport Extreme Original box with all accessories Mac OS X 10.3 Panther, and iLife 04 I will also...

Hi Nate, I had this same problem with a PixelVision flat panel display. The G5 (happened with my G4 also) would start to go to sleep, then wake up right away. If I tried to shut down it wound up rebooting. What you'd probably have to do is initiate either a shutdown or sleep command, then...

Wow, thanks! That's very cool. Now Expose can have F9, F10, and F11 as originally designed. Thanks again. Regards, Marc

On a PowerBook that has a backlit keyboard, as F9 and F10 are used to control the brightness of the backlight. I guess we'll have to use modifiers (Ctl, shift, Option). Regards, Marc

Hi, I've got a fairly new Miglia Alchemy TV PCI card for sale. I purchased it from Other World Computing sometime last year. It works fine, I just don't really use it and would rather get a Canopus ADVC300. Anyway, I've got the original box and software (the manual is on the CD, I think)...

Hey Gia, 16 hours a day glued to a PowerBook? (I admit, I can understand the attraction!) That doesn't leave much time for "having fun" now, does it? :o Regards, Marc
