    Download options for iTunes Store?

    of course, the only things acquired through ***** were already in the public domain or songs I already had personal right to by owning the CD.

    Any plans for Apple notebook?

    Yeah, I know I'm fishing: I love my iBook, if only it were a few inches smaller and I could draw on the screen like a PDA without opening it...you see where I'm going with this...

    What the hell is going on!?

    Double-check the RAM configuration instructions in your manual. The ibook/Pbook G4 will take PC2100 266mhz DDR SDRAM. However, 333mhz ram will also work... New PowerBooks or iBooks use: Samsung - K4H560838E Hynix - HY5DU121622AT Micron - MT46V16M16 I've had a few cases of bad...

    Download options for iTunes Store?

    I'm a bit of a Noob when it comes to paying for my downloaded music. Most of my existing music files are in .mp3 format, encoded at minimum 160 kbps...lots of these are from a few years ago, when SoundJam was cutting edge(sniff). What's odd is that even some random junk I acquired (mostly...

    Help! my green iPod is very sick!

    I typed it in wrong...I'm actually running iTunes 4.5. I reset the Mini to factory presets, but it did the same thing where it just automatically dowloaded a chunk of my Music folder that would fit on the Mini...

    Help! my green iPod is very sick!

    I just received an iPod Mini a few days ago as a gift. Right out of the box, I loved the packaging and Mini itself, if not the documentation and speakers. I've never had an iPod before, so I took the time to follow the instructions and power it up via the wall jack before trying to load my...

    2 dead pixels on iBook screen! :(

    I've been idling at the Genius Bar in two different Apple Retail stores(SoHo and Palo Alto) and overheard 2 conversations with customers with 'dead pixels' that were disturbingly similar: Apple's policy as described at one store is that 1 to 4 dead pixels is 'acceptable' even on a brand new...

    WIFI Compatibility Thread

    larry, Thanks! it was your post here that convinced me that I shouldn't settle for wifi b on my G4 Dual 867(in a wifi b/g LAN) just 'cause it isn't in Apple's Airport Extreme handbook... I picked up an 802.11 g Belkin PCI wifi card with an antenna at a local CompUsa for $50 and it works like...

    Mixed Network Woes

    Yeesh. The router had auto-configured the first time when I punched in the IP address via Explorer, so I knew how to get into the config. Unfortunately, the setup for the router errored after I'd punched in the new password I'd just designated. Now nothing works! I though I could reset to the...

    Mixed Network Woes

    Based on some of the info I received on this forum, I decided to set up my home mixed network of a G4 Dual 867, Dell Inspiron, and iBook G3 800 with a NetGear Wireless Router WGR614 rather than an Airport Extreme Base Station. So far, so good... I set up the NetGear router first with my...

    Airport Questions

    maybe I'm missing something here, as I was just warming up my wallet to buy an Airport Extreme Base Station myself until I read this post... I'll admit that some of this network talk has me turned around. I thought the reason to go with the AEBS was that it allows greater bandwidth than some...

    help, can't burn discs in OS X

    I apologize for answering a question with a question, but: Hasn't the Jaguar(and Classic)Disk Copy been merged into the Panther over-the-top App 'Disk Utility'? It's a real pain to make an .dmg, but I believe it allows more control over settings(as well as selecting what drive you intend to...

    iBook Logic Board issue?

    I had a similar problem with my 12" iBook G3 800Mhz last fall, and I took it in to the Apple Store after the folks on this forum helped me to identify the problem as something I couldn't fix with pluck and a tiny screwdriver. Apple replaced the logic board without a fuss; including the trip my...

    iBook G3 vs G4

    Finally, a topic that I have authority to speak on! I have a G3 iBook 800mhz with 384mb RAM that I use for extraneous tasks at work- internet, mail, some file handling, color-management apps, and(gasp!) some file manipulation via Photoshop. At my suggestion, a few months ago, we purchased a G4...

    My mini delayed. 15gb for same price. What would you do?

    hmmm...I'm having the same dilemna myself... I really want my iPod mini, but I'm not sure the extra cool factor is worth the wait. Not to mention the fact that I don't like supporting Apple's failure to understand the simple economic principle of Supply and Demand. Worse, their mistake is...

    Photoshop guides mismatch in Panther

    I've run into a strange problem, and I wonder if anyone else has spotted this: After using guides to aid my retouching on a Photoshop file that I open in PS 7, I save the file out with the guides suppressed. If someone opens the file in Photoshop CS, the guides are automatically...

    Taking full advantage of this monitor

    hmm...interested in color...do you mean bright color or accurate color? I use a 17" Apple LCD at work, and I love it; but I only use it as second fiddle to my main monitor of choice, a 23" Sony Artisan. I use the Apple 17" for web pages and tool palettes in apps. I wouldn't ever trust it for...

    Need help for home PC/Mac networking

    My girlfriend moved in with her Dell, and it makes me realize that I've got to get a wireless router that will allow both my systems and her PC laptop system to function under one roof. Her machine is a Dell Inspiron 8200 running Windows XP, and I've got a G4 Dual 867 Mirror Door running OS...

    What are my options?

    hmm...I'm a retoucher and color guy, not sales, so I couldn't begin to give you an accurate quote, especially for printing in Europe. Just for page processing alone, you'd probably somewhere around 120-150 US dollars/page. That's assuming that you're going to be doing all of your own scans and...

    What are my options?

    I don't want to kill your dream, but have you thought through the kind of time and money that producing a magazine, even quarterly or monthly, will cost you? I mean besides ponying up the money for a G5, Photoshop and ID... What about pre-press and printer services? Just the paper can bankrupt...
