    Calling all PowerBook 12" 867MHz users! - RAM Question

    Thanks for the responses guys, but I am looking for users that have upgraded, so it's a confirmation that the 12" 867MHz can indeed take the 1GB SODIMM. I have rang Apple themselves, and they tell me that the machine is capable of taking the 1GB SODIMM, but if you do so, then there is no...

    This avi will not play right.

    I suspect that you tried to play the DivX AVI in the QuickTime movie player? The reason being is that the QuickTime player works with the QuickTime drivers, and this drivers do not have the DivX AVI codecs installed. Even if yo install the DivX codec, some AVI do not play, it depends on what...

    DVD Authoring without DVD Studio Pro

    Dear Applefan21 You will need DVD Studio Pro for what you want to do, but as you said, you don't have the computer power to run the latest version. So what? Get an earlier version? I recommend you get a copy of version 1 or version 1.5. These should run on your G3. I suspect that you can pick...

    simple dvd

    Ok. You have a 500MB MPEG-1 movie file and you want to make a DVD out of this. No problems. To do this, you need to convert the MPEG-1 to MPEG-2. DVD is MPEG-2 video. There are various coonversion programs out there, but the best is Discreet Cleaner 6. I don't know if QuickTime Pro can do...

    Photoshop question

    Dear Bez, First of, upgrade your PhotoShop to the full version. PhotoShop Elements (PE) was designed for consumers to retouch and edit their digital photos. It wasn't designed for desktop publishing. I say this, because PE can't handle CYMK images. I also, I think it can't handle alpha...

    Tired of Quark, Classic, switching, etc.

    I know how you feel man! I have ditched Quark, because they have lost the plot, and support for them is dire. You have done a good move by moving to Adobe CS, and you won't regret it; I didn't. My main concern when moving over was the Print Shop situation. Sorry to say, you might have...

    M$ Office preview

    Same here dude! Personally, I hope that they make Entourage 2004 a carbon copy of Outlook 2003. I am sick to death of not being able to do the same type of work as stuff as my PC counterparts in the office. Entourage, to me, is the most important program in the Office suite. I do love the new...
