It worked after a reboot.. duh.. i should have tried that before bothering anyone, but it's weird that it didn't work before a shutdown & startup it is mac extended journaled...

Sweet. Thanks for the tip. I think I'll try to do it for free first (since I'm only trying to monitor my dogs) lol. But I'm very happy to learn about those Axis products. regards, Beta

Hi there, I'd like to monitor my home using iChat AV and a computer at home. Problem is, I'm connecting from my work, and am behind a monster firewall. I am connecting to my home computer using VLC to initiate a one way video feed from the home user to the user at work, but it fails...

Hi there, I re-initialized a hard drive on an iMac G5 using the system CD that came with the machine. After re-initializing the hard drive, I tried to re-install 10.4, and the hard drive doesn't appear capable of taking the OS. It looks like regular silver hard drive in the installer...

Thanks... VNC though won't allow me an audio feed.. so my plan is to use VNC to connect to the machine, but only to initiate an iChat AV audio/video connection to my machine at work, and then monitor the dogs through iChat AV, so, even if they're not in the camera's field of view, I'd still be...

Anyone know if I can use my Sony HC20 firewire mini DV recorder as the webcam ?? and possibly.. even control it somehow remotely (zoom, pan, etc.)

Hi there, I will be moving into an apartment and must leave my dogs there during the day. I'll get home to walk them, but want to monitor them for a few weeks when I'm not there for a few reasons. (primarily to make sure they're not barking incessantly which could lead to my eviction) I...

Does anyone know the specs of the processor in the iphone processor? or know anything about it ?

I would love to see good handwriting and speech recognition in this device. Even if the virtual keyboard is awesome, it would be nice to have the option to break out a stylus and write quickly in natural script or be able to speak into the phone and have the voice decoded into text.

I honestly don't care whether Cingular is an inferior service. I'm ready to toss Verizon (who has a habit of crippling their products) in the trash and switch over to Cingular. In my opinion, the iPhone is, hands down, the best product I've seen in a very, very long time, electronic or not...

yep.. I've done the ear thing... but a permanent solution would be nice.. and then we could pump the 3rd cubicle in and have a real party up in there! plus i don't think that works for party/shuffle mode

I have a bit of a challenge on my hands. We went out and bought my parents a Mac. They're up there in the years (upper 70s, early 80s), and this is their first computer. While they *are* doing pretty well with it, I didn't anticipate how many aspects of using a computer would make...

Hi, Does anyone know if there's some way to sync two computers so that one of their iTunes will play on both computers at the exact same time.. the reason for this is that I sit 7 feet away from a girl at work who plays her itunes a lot... I'd like to hear what she's playing, but asking...

Hi there, I got sick of my Apple Pro Keyboard because keys would become hard to press especially if you didn't come straight down on the keys.. I love my powerbook keyboard, so someone recommended the Icekey by MacAlly. I loved it at first, but after some time, it is starting to KILL my...

Attached is a screenshot of Cmd-F next to Spotlight Cmd-F finds nothing in "computer" by searching for "test" whereas Spotlight finds plenty of stuff..

Hi there, I recently had to re-index my drive because Spotlight wasn't working. Now, spotlight works, however, when I try to find files by doing an Apple-F to search my Computer, I can't find files that I'm sure are there. It finds absolutely nothing. What on earth is going on...

Thank you! this did help.. however I ran into another file I need to exclude.. how can I add another string that I want to exclude ?? (also, is there some mac utility that can effectively delete hard-to-delete items that are corrupted or just acting plain weird)? thanks :)

thank you! I tried that and this happened mid-way through: RTDB:~ security$ sudo rsync -az /Users/rtdb/ /Volumes/research\%20training/STEVEN/TECHSTUFF/Backup/RTDB_BACKUP/ Password: symlink...

Hi there, I'm a Unix newbie, and want to copy a big mac directory to a PC smb share. The problem I'm running into is that the smb share will not allow certain filenames and the copy fails if I try to do it from the finder. Is there some Unix command I can run that will copy the entire...

I figured out the answer... OS X can handle 10 concurrent connections. OS X server unlimited can handle more... I have 10.3.9 on the machine.. if I purchase OS X server unlimited, I can install a layer of server over 10.3.9 non-server. Or, I can do a fresh install of server unlimited and...
