LOL!!! Dammit you made me spit milk all over my keyboard!!

I bought a Syba Firewire PCI ExpressCard (34mm) for my MacBook Pro. It's the 15 inch 2 ghz intel core 2 duo model from 2006. It says it's plug and play, but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.6 It appeared in the Network Preferences as a new Firewire Network Interface, but my...

I'm on a macbook pro 2 ghz intel core duo, and my fan just recently started whining and making really loud noise. I think it only happens when my 23" cinema display is plugged into it. I know this is just a hardware part failure, since this never happened before. There seems to be two...

really? Wow, is there no speakers protected against this nightmare?????

follow up: gah, I found these also on apple: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=26DDB04C&fnode=standard/home/shop_mac/mac_accessories/audio_speakers&nplm=TK200VC/A And one of the line items it says - magnetically shielded But the companion 5...

I need a really good system. Should I splurge on these? http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=7E4FA1DC&nplm=TK760VC/A My NUMBER ONE concern is this: ARE THEY SHIELDED? i.e. -- will my %#&* iPhone (or any cell phone) cause the speakers to rattle and pop...

It's funny how this thread just tanked so miserably. I vote this to be the worst thread ever posted. AND IT'S NOT MY FAULT!!

Man, this thread is spiraling into the abyss of misery

LOL, buddy, I'm not shopping for a webcam. I already got an iSight built in to my macbook pro! RTFM

I want to make some crystal clear high quality web video content, and I am interested in a Canon 1080p digital camcorder. The price range for that seems to be around $800. Is this overkill for web video? I want crystal clear high fidelity video but the resolution will be far smaller than...

I think I figured it out. A smart mailbox is just a pointer (reference) to the mail messages. It shows all mail in the one folder, but their actual location remains in their original mailboxes. Mail rules actually MOVE messages from one mailbox to another, which makes even more sense on an IMAP...

Ok, so what's the difference between a rule and a smart mailbox? They both seem to accomplish the same exact thing. What are the benefits of smart mailboxes? Thanks!

All 144 copies of it? (144 hourly backups over 6 days) (Yes it is only one file backed up, but to the Finder it looks like 1 new copy of it every hour)

what if time machine backed up a temp file, say... a 1 GB movie file that you ended up not liking and throwing out. But say that file was on your desktop for a week before you trashed it. How would you remove this file from ALL previous time machine backups, to free up space on your backup...

Is it possible to copy to multiple directories and ignore unchanged files? Commandline is fine. directory tree 1: file1.txt file2.txt directory tree 2: file1.txt (identical to file1.txt above) directory tree 3: {blank} I want a one line copy command (hopefully) that will do...

This may be obvious to most of us, but for the typical dumb user... is this caveat going to be clearly stated in Apple's marketing? From: http://www.apple.com/macosx/leopard/timemachine.html "Backup Disk: Change the drive or volume you’re backing up to. Or back up to a Mac OS X server...

I have a Canon Digital Rebel XT with a 2 GB compact flash II card. The card can download images to my computer at about 4-6 MB per second, on my USB 2.0 port. This is 10 times slower than what USB 2 has to offer. Now obviously the bottleneck must be the CF card itself. On this page...

I read that this will not work on Intel macs either. Which is good. Intel macs are thus more secure!!! But I'm dying to know how to access the EFI interface! The geniuses at the Apple Store have not even been revealed this information. But a genius told me that soon they would be trained on...
