if the hooter girls are there, they better be wearing white shirts and Steve had better be presenting the iSplash :D

Dehuti about SMB shares.... I've actually had the exact opposite behavior at work. I'll have an SMB share (from an NT server) mounted on the Mac. Since 10.2.3 I've actually gotten much better behavior. Sometimes I reboot the NT server without disconnecting the shares. After the server boots...

you could try using chimerachanga (its on versiontracker.com)

they have to be developed specifically for sherlock. if you earch versiontracker, you'll see that there are several plugs available, including aplug for versiontracker, another for the weather, another for amazon and several others. the pages for these search engines will have a link you can...

I also looked into splicing something into the antenna feed. You can get these kits that come with a switch that gets mounted on the dash. If you throw the switch one way, you get the radio antenna. throw the switch the other way and you get a line feed (which also mounts in the dash). I saw...

if the gouge is not too huge, you could go to http://www.tipaint.com and get "The pain touch-up kit for the PowerBook G4" =)

I was researching a home FM transmiter (1-2 mile range) I found out was that this class of device (not the ones I was looking at, but the ones being discussed here) *must* do nothing to prevent interference from another signal. bottom line is that the FCC regulation makes these devices...

I believe this is possible, there are apps in version tracker that let you have multiple iTunes libraries (similar to the iPhoto apps that do the same). You should be able to use these to switch between a local and remote library. or, you could have two playlists (a local playlist and a...

just an idea: how far away are the apple stores in New Jersey?

I ran into this with my 6400 Astra scanner. I also learned a little bit about UMAX. it seems that they are not contrally controlled. You can get drivers from the UK web site that the people from the US division want you to pay for. There's is some into on OSX and UMAC here...

it should be a 4 pin to 6 pin cable (as opposed to the iPods 6 pin to 6 pin connector) 4 pin ports are common in PC lan because they are slightly cheaper. They also do not carry power; they only carry data - which really sucks.

I'd suggest disk warrior. this app is a must-have and it has saved my a$$ after disk first aid and fsck both failed.

I have a different sony camcorder. if you connect the camera via an USB port, you have to switch the power button to camera. if you want to use the camera with iMovie, you switch to vcr and connect via a firewire cable.

if you think that was hard, you should try getting the free version of RealProducer (OS9 only). :D that sucker was buried deep and confusingly.

They hide the link to the free one to confuse people. Try downloading from here: http://forms.real.com/real/realone/mac.html (this is the list you get from versiontracker.com)

it has the toolbar in the dock menu. however, you can designate any folder as the folder for the popup menu. also, there is a new selection in prefs to open downloaded items.

there are freeware applications that display video from any DV source either in a window or full screen: http://www.versiontracker.com/moreinfo.fcgi?id=15731&db=mac or better yet, you can have a window that floats above other windows so you can watch tv and do a little work...

I'm surprised no-one has mentioned this yet... Apple should keep fairly consistent naming guidelines. I think they should use the same naming that they use for software. apps that everyone uses, they have fairly straight forward names: mail, address book, key chain, etc. apps targetted...

I'm thinking of using a quicken-like application to track my finances. I'd rather not use Quicken because they have irritatedf the crap out of me with their mac support. Can you guys recommend an accounting package? I don't need anything overly sophisticated, but I would like to import QIF...

even if it not not an issue with bus power, you should probably have the camera connected to a port that's not dedicated. remember that USB does not have any sort of bandwidth guatantee (unlike firewire), so if you are in a shared port, other devides might be causing congestion (like when a...
