bit of a shame the movies are not played in a slideshow - they are skipped right over

For general iLife '05 bitches and moans http://www.macosx.com/forums/showthread.php?t=49035 I have to say iPhoto 5 is great! It seems much faster and being able to handle movies is great. I haven't fully tested it but one of the gripes i have is that smart-albums dont work - at all. I...

Heres an interesting problem for you all... I have a LAN i would like to connect to a friends LAN so they appear as one. I know this can be done using expensive VPN hardware. This is the basic set up. 2 houses with ADSL, each with a router that supports VPN pass through. The routers...

yes! its happening to me and its a pain in the ass. if you look in the system log i get errors like these: The messages I see on screen range from - "Error could not open communications device" to "The carrier signal was lost" - (it didn't even dial so how could it loosed the carrier)...

if the volume has been indexed you can use the find feature in the finder as well. Search for content

i dont know... where you? Even if you did does it make a difference to me? Does the butterfly effect really exist? why am i rambling?

i sent some feed back in the other day... You can right click on a song in your library to see what playlists it is in, but thats a pain. If anyone uses address book groups you will know what i mean here: When you select a song the playlists it is in should be highlighted (maybe a gray...

Ok, i did some research and here we go. I have tested this and it works. Add this applescript to your startup items and your away! tell application "iTunes" activate end tell do shell script ("/System/Library/CoreServices/Menu\\ Extras/User.menu/Contents/Resources/CGSession -suspend")...

i think applescipt may be a better option have the computer login automatically as BOSS then a startup applescript that launches itunes and then logs out (fast user swtiching) hopefully then the computer will be at the login screen, with itunes running in the background under user account boss

you should look up "renice" in terminal. This allows you to background a process. So it will use 100% of processor as long as nothing else is using it. Everything else has priority. man-pages are a wounderful thing!

there is encrytion in mail now as well, if you go to thawte.com you can register and get a certificate for free that alows you to digitally sign your messages, once you have sent a message that is signed, the recipient can send you encrypted messages. I posted a how-to about 6 months ago about...

NOOOOOO!!! There is no way that Visual Studio will be in anyway useful to you if you are running through Virtual PC. VS.Net has so many things going on in the background (dynamic help, source completion, making your life easier, making your life miserable) that only a NEW PC (ie >2GHz) can...

good to see someone definitely knows what's going on then! I like the TV style concept with the bulge on the back, horizontal cd drive, who ever made that put some time into it!

Hey, I just downloaded the 1.5 Dev tools and i have to say well done apple. Source code completion is much improved. I use java quite often so having source completion is great. Its quick and from my play around very good so far. Even a old request of mine to have a way of un/commenting...

I think you may have misunderstood what darwin is. Darwin is the UNIX technology that Mac OS X is built upon. It is released under a public license so anyone can view the code. You can compile the source on a vatiety of platforms (including x86 - intel) but this wil only get you a basic...

mmm possibly - but not as neat as i would have hoped. I could make a folder action that places an alias on the desktop when the drives are mounted and turn off the show drives on desktop option in finder. Anyway - its 11pm - time for me to go home! Enough work for one day!

What? I dont understand. I have a drive with 3 partitions, i want 2 to show up on the desktop - but the third to remain unmounted
