    AIM for Mac closes

    Are you using an intel-Mac? The PowerPC-only version of AIM (There is no universal yet I believe) is very unstable on Intel machines, and will crash, quit, or hang. Seen a lot of complaints about it. Using Adium or iChat is your best bet, like you said.

    iTunes 7 and movies with Dolby Pro Logic

    So, iTunes 7 and the new iTunes Store has movies. These movies (supposedly) are encoded with Dolby Pro Logic 5.1 audio. Now, how do you access this audio? I have purchased two movies. The Incredibles, and Pirates of the Caribbean. Two movies of recent release that I would expect to have...

    eSATA solutions for PowerBooks?

    Anyone had any luck with existing, or finding any eSATA PC cards for current (Aluminum) PowerBooks? I'm looking to replace my external disk with something new, and I don't want to be stuck in the past with USB and Firewire, especially since one could assume eSATA could find it's way onto a...

    Hard disk noise in new 17" 1.67ghz Powerbook

    I'm curious to know if anyone else has this issue. I recently received the new 17" 1.67ghz Powerbook. It comes with the Seagate 100GB 5400rpm hard disk. What I immediately noticed over the previous model is that the hard disk makes a lot of noise, even when idling. Not a constant noise, but once...

    iSync and Motorola V60s (Verizon Wireless)

    The cable is marked NNTN4049A. It's a geniune Motorola product. My father purchased it for his Motorola T720, but never used it, so he gave it to me. He says he purchased it from the same store he got the phone. I should add to my above post, that this cable and the V60s also work to connect my...

    iSync and Motorola V60s (Verizon Wireless)

    I picked up a USB cable for my V60s phone, for synchronizing the contacts with iSync. Though the "s" model isn't listen on iSync's page, it does seem to work okay, though iSync uses the wrong icon and calls it "60is". I don't forsee any problems, but has anyone had different results with this...

    J2ME in Xcode?

    Has anyone plugged a J2ME toolkit into Xcode? I noticed J2EE is in there, so it can't be THAT farfetched. I like Java and all, but I'm a dope when it comes to things like unix, and aside from a Windows and Sparc distribution, there was a .bin file on Sun's site for linux. Stuffit decompressed...

    Ogg Media file (OGM) manipulation?

    I'm trying to find some tools that can help me with a specific problem. I've got two Ogg Media files (OGM) that are two halves of a whole. I need to combine them. Or, another solution would be to decode both, splice them, and reencode them as something else, like an mpeg4 method. This would be...

    Using a Mac with Verizon's NationalAccess internet

    Jeepster, if it's not too much trouble, do you think you could get the details from your brother? Such as which data plan he uses, how his phone is configured, and how his mac is configured? I've been jumping from network to network as data plans get better, but VerizonWireless seems to be the...

    Using a Mac with Verizon's NationalAccess internet

    I had contacted VerizonWireless about their NationalAccess wireless data plans. In the past, I've preferred Verzion for their fantastic network quality and service area, and their voice plans are very well priced as well. However, their unlimited data plan requires two things: their mobile...

    How do I clean the inside of a fleece-lined shoe?

    I know this is way out of left field, but no one else can seem to be able to tell me. I'd like to avoid putting shoes in the washing machine, so maybe someone knows the answer. Shoes or boots with a fleece lining, and it needs to be restored. Cleaned and made fluffy again. Or at least cleaned...

    brandelf in terminal

    If Darwin is supposed to be a BSD distribution, is there a way to get brandelf to run linux binaries? (One binary I have in question is supported and able to be run in BSD by brandelf -t) And if so, where can I find a copy of brandelf? Nosh

    MS Visual C++ project, what can open it?

    Well that's just no good at all. I'm rather the "newbie" when it comes to C++, and a certain developers SDK only comes as a Visual C++ project. All the code is there for altering, but I just don't know how to structure and build it in a different IDE.

    MS Visual C++ project, what can open it?

    is it possible to open a Visual C++ project (structured in the same way it would appear in Visual C++ itself) in any program in OS X? Xcode has no problem opening .h, .c, or .cpp files, naturally, but has no idea what to do with the .sln file. Is there a secret way, or a special third party...

    Halo not performing well.

    Yes you're right, 9600, sorry. Wishful thinking I suppose. :) MacSoft's support page mentions that some features, such as pixel shading, are disabled if you're running an nVidia chipset. So they might have better performace, though sacrifice the most dramatic graphical effects.

    Halo not performing well.

    I just picked up Halo, and I'm surprised that a two year old game is the first game where I have performance problems on. All settings are maxed out obviously, with no Antialiasing and at 800x600, I'm perplexed. Every other game I run works beautiully with full settings, and at 1024x768. Halo...
