Ok thanks, I thought I downloaded and reinstalled the programs. I will do this after work tonight.

I just upgraded to Snow Leopard and now Handbrake and Mac the Ripper no loger works. Can someone suggest a program I could use as a replacement?

I think that your router may have some sort of security feature that is preventing your Macs from seeing each other. Now you said that you can do everything on the Ethernet. I would also check you firewall on each Mac. Is there any 3rd party security software on your MACs. You said you can see...

Hello, I have been having issues lately with the album art. I download a lot of podcasts and lately iTunes has been getting the art work mixed up. Normally some podcasts don't have art for each file. Others have one for each chapter. Has anyone seen this before? Any help will be great.

Give me the IPs of the machines and router. Internal only not public. If you run this command on each Mac and show me the output that would be great. ifconfig -a This command will display all the IPs for all your networking devices on your Mac. I hope this helps.

Hi, My Mac can't read my Linux disks for the most part. Parallels is a VM and sometimes VM have issues mounting physical devices. I would mount the disk to a a real Linux machine (non-VM), preferably the same distro as the RAID was created with. I beleive that you should remove as many variables...

Hi, I get a lot of the lines in the videos as well. Cartoons seem to have it more the live action. When I select the Apple tv 2 preset the 2-pass option is grayed out, is there anther way to check it? I have anther issue that has not been stated here yet. When I use handbrake sometimes on...

This is good info, but I'm not asking for info on how to customize the shell. I don't think you read my question. I'm asking why the GUI says one this and the terminal say anther.

I named my Macbook one thing but when I open the terminal it says something else. Not only that it changed from the last time I was in the terminal. My user name is different as well. How is this possible? If I use the GUI on anther machine it see the the name I named it, but if I use the...

Thank you for the info. Me and my coworkers thought it might be like this thanks. The info was most informative.

Hi I am a solaris admin and I know that UNIX in general doesn't like spaces in filenames or directories. Try to rename the files and directories and take out the spaces. You can try using _ or - instead of using spaces. Also try "FileName" instead of "file name" I have seen many issues online...

Your telling me you don't have a router? Go to the store and buy a router and use that to share your internet connection.

Me and some of the guys a work where wondering if the OS X Server was worth it. Me and my coworkers are Sun Solaris System Administrators. We see that OS X is BSD or UNIX so what does the OS X server give you that can't be added to the desktop version? You can install web, app, LDAP, DNS, or any...

You can not legally install OS X on a PC but you can install Windows on a Mac. Networking and file shearing can be a real pain between a Mac and a PC for Mac newbes. Yes the Mac is compatible with Windows 7 networks. I use my Mac book on my network at home and the windows and Mac computers can...

I have been using the Airport Extreme and was wondering if the hard drive or file server feature works with UNIX or Linux. If anyone has used it with Unix or Linux can you tell me how you did it or if there is any work arounds I need to do? Mac is BSD or UNIX so I'm thinking It should work, but...
