    Playlist < 80 min won't burn on 80 min media?

    Unfortunately this isn't it. This CD is part 2 of a 3 CD compilation. The first CD is short, but the last two are long. The 3rd CD comes in at 74:57, and burns without trouble. That's only a 2 min, 23 sec difference from the problem disc (which is 77:20). And if I remove even one song, the...

    Playlist < 80 min won't burn on 80 min media?

    Set to one second. I tried no gap earlier, didn't work. I am now manually stripping the tags out and converting to aiff even though this shouldn't matter. We'll see what happens from there.

    Playlist < 80 min won't burn on 80 min media?

    Yes, I removed a track that was only 1:37 and it did not present the error message to me. Sad because this CD is not one that can just be broken up, each track needs to be there. New Question.... what's a good alternative to iTunes that can burn and is free?

    Playlist < 80 min won't burn on 80 min media?

    I recently ripped a CD to iTunes and am now trying to make a copy of it. When I go to burn it, iTunes tells me that the list is too long and that I should split it onto multiple CD's. How is this possible when I got it from only one CD to begin with? MP3 tags and bit rate shouldn't matter...

    Asante fr3004 I'm assuming you'll tell me to go to asante.com...yes maybe I will do that.

    Did apple kill internet sharing in iTunes 4.0.1?

    Is there a place that will tell me in layman's terms how to do port forwarding? I don't exaclty want to go buy a book, either. My router has a ton of features that I don't have a clue how to use. In this case it's sharing itunes.

    FREE DUAL POWERMAC G5 1.8ghz!!!!

    Not to take the moral high ground here, but why is it that people expect do be rewarded for doing the right thing? It's like single Dads being fawned over for "sticking with it", when a single Mom gets back-stabbed for not having family values! Anyway, as part owner of Apple, I salute you!

    Hard Drive Icon Striped?

    Right....that's what I am saying. My question is why would a video card cause the harddrive icon to change? I know that there is no rebuilding in OSX.

    Hard Drive Icon Striped?

    What, may I ask, does that striping on the icon mean? I'm from the OS9 school, so my advice would be go rebuild the desktop!

    How to $ave money on a new G5 ??

    Agreed on the IBM drives. I've got two stuck in my G4. Every year or so I have to do some scrambling to avoid data loss, then reformat one or both of them. Anyway...are you a student or do you know anyone in education? I haven't seen the discounts Apple gives on G5's for edu, but when I was...

    Epson Perfection 1670 scanner

    Yes I did do those things, though I don't see how fscking would help. Anyway reinstalling brought back some functionality, but the applications actually act differently now. I am overall happy with Epson products, but it is very strange how they have their scanner software set up. Accessing an...

    Your Internet Connection Poll

    I've had dsl since '99 or 2000, with three different companies at three different locations. The only down time I've had was differences in getting set up. Two took a week and the other took a month. But once it was up, it was up.

    Epson Perfection 1670 scanner

    Under Panther, this scanner does not work properly. After previewing and cropping, etc, and the scan is complete, the program crashes. The crash happens before the file is saved, and in every mode the software offers. I went to epson.com but the only driver update is what I've already got...

    New to Macs - What is a .Dmg file?

    A dmg is a disk image. I think of them as a disk within a disk... If it won't mount it's possible the file is corrupted, or incomplete. Also I think there is a way to not automatically verify dmg files, which will sometimes let you mount dmg's with "weird behaviors". I could be wrong about that...

    ElCoco, how do you like SBC? I am in Dallas with SBC, and the speed is actually pretty awful. I pay 50 bucks monthly and get consistantly low speeds (768/128 advertised, 300/100 actual). I have a buddy who lives in Greenville (podunk town) that pays $40/mo total for cable tv AND 1.5MB cable...

    QUAD G4 Apple Server Platform for Enterprise

    I'm thinking G5 here. There may be a gap in time where Apple's offering falls short, but sticking with the G4 on their server line doesn't seem smart to me. It'll take time to get a G5 xserve, but it's time that is better spent than if they tried to mess around with a G4 as well. Developing and...

    Hot Corner not working?

    Not that I know of, but that sounds like something. Almost like the action of putting the mouse there starts the screen saver, but also starts something else, which in turn, turns off the screen saver. Not bad, but why would it only do it for this one function, in this corner only?
