    Apple hardware test error codes

    The plastic partition is not in place OR the temp sensor is not plugged in on the motherboard. I have had a mini upgraded and a Dual 2.5 serviced, and they seem to love to leave it unplugged. Just look inside for a small black plug (one in front and one in back as I recall).

    Wireless Mice.......An Unecessary Gadget?

    They do not require a USB port (that little thing called Bluetooth!) - they are great for MediaPC's - I have a Mac Mini that I operate as a media pc on a 100" monitor from the couch, about 15' from the PC (wireless keyboard too) - I personally find the wire a pain in the butt... so have been...

    Motorola SLVR; your opinions please

    I have to respectfully disagree.... For a guy that does not like to carry a lot of stuff around (and thinks phones one belts look stupid) the RAZR hasa been a good form/function unit. My bluetooth stays on ALL THE TIME, I get in and out of the car (bluetooth equipped), use it as a modem for my...

    Keeping the neighbours out of my wi-fi

    Make sure you did not just password protect your router configuration. That will not do anything that you are looking for (but you need to do it, to keep squaters from just looking up the password for the WEP or turning it off themselves. You need to use at least WEP protection. That is...

    Hard Drive Activity every 5 - 8 seconds

    I have a dual 2.5 and about a month ago it started writting to the hard drive every 5 - 8 seconds. I went to activity monitor and it will 'very briefly' show a process called 'Issave' running when it writes. It is so quick, that it does not show up in the activity window every time. I have...

    my 15" aluminum powerbook's head crash

    The thing to remember is its not IF a hard drive will fail its WHEN. They are simple mechanical devices, spinning at high RPM's. Bearings wear out, have small manufacturing defects etc. The real lesson that should be learned here is backup, Backup, BACKUP. Unlike devices that are pure solid...

    iTunes Library Sharing

    OK, listen carefully, because I cannot be the only one with this problem. I have several macs, and they all connect to a REBYTE RAID via a network (NAT). This is basically a 1TB SAMBA share. All of my Music, Photos, Videos, etc is on the RAID. When I add new music to the NAT, I have to go around...

    Restoring Music from iPod to a new drive

    iPodRip and IPodtoMac both work great for this purpose. I had the same thing happen, only it was my RAID server that crashed. 2 drives at once! - anyway, download on of these and you will be back in business in no time.

    iCal: How can I get To-Do items to roll over

    BASIC functionality of a PIM and Calendar program (ala Entourage, ACT!, etc) is the ability to schedule To-Do items for a particular day. HOWEVER, I wish NOT to see items that are due in the future. So of course I have the preference set to "Hide Todo Items with Due Dates Outside Calendar View"...

    Key Logging

    Thanks for the advise. One of my IT guys has told me the same thing basically. We are looking at other security measures today.

    Key Logging

    Yes it does. I have some employees that need to be monitored as they have access to sensitive information that could destroy our company if passed to a competitor. We may have a 'spy' from our competitor on the inside, and need to monitor the online activities of said employees. In addition, we...

    Gigabit Ethernet Issues SOLVED

    I thought I would post this unusual problem and solution to get it out in the ETHER net. I have new house that the rocket scientist that built it put in ONE cat5 cable to each outlet in the house. This was for phone AND ethernet. No problem really, because 10/100 ethernet requires only 4 wires...

    Unexplained Airtunes/itunes Pauses

    I have ad this problem too. I have located it down to iTunes itself. If I close and restart iTunes, the problem "usually" goes away. It seems to be problem with the wireless and iTunes talking to one another. One note, I can reliably get iTunes to do this when I turn on my microwave oven (30'...
