... Apple Music Store -aholic Back in my youth, I purchased too many music tapes to count. They are all worn out these days. We even packed away the tape player to make room for a DVD player. The past ten years we have collected many CDs. Most are not replications of the old tapes. I had...

Just a quick comment. I am not going to jump into the "effect on society" argument. All I am going to say is, if a person openly fantasizes about the slaughter of other human beings then he is sick. I use the word sick not in a humorous tone. There is just something wrong.

symphonix - So true. But the idiots are going to program anyways. :-) I'd just assume they use a high level language.

Too extend the Captain's message... Libraries, frameworks, and executables are very similar. A library is a set of compiled source code. It has a set of symbols (function names and global variables) defined that can be called from another library or executable. An Application Programming...

willmac Sorry you were flamed. I hate internet flamers. Most of them are ignorant jack-a$$es who don't have the balls to criticize even a slug in person. Sorry about the rant but I really hate it when somebody asks a question and gets treated poorly. No question is too simple. All...

Yeah, it is easy. Just delete the thing. First, move all personal documents from the home's of your users into OS9's Documents folder (on the root of your hard-disk). Or to be safe, just move the home's themselves. Open the terminal and enter the following command ls -la / This will...

Don't confuse surprised with disappointed. A few SW enhancements are not going to entice folks to fork out a few more hundred dollars for an MP3 player. The iPod was purchased with the knowledge that it is an expandable platform. It is less than a year old. The SW enhancements are not...

I updated the iPod software and did not receive the new On-the-Go playlist or games. Dissapointing.

I have been happy with Linksys products and have recommended them but Apple... My parents and in-laws have Linksys wireless routers. The airport card links up just fine except... 1) The keychain sometimes forgets the router's 128 bit hex-phrase. 2) That wouldn't be so bad except the...

I visit some sites where the ads flash so fast in such a jarring fashion that I get a headache trying to read the real content of the page. How do I stop this from occurring in Safari? I can stop it in IE by turning off looping for animiated GIFs. However, the pop-under windows appear in IE...

I am sorry for making a vague cultural reference. There is an old saying... If you put a group of monkeys in a room with a bunch of typewriters for an infinite amount of time, eventually, they will produce the complete works of Shakespeare (an author and playwright). The statement is used to...

Hello, The experimentation with the languages mentioned will help teach the basics. What is a collection of data? What are the most effective ways to store the data? And how do you most efficiantly process the data? I understand your point. Making the OO logical jump is like Pointer Epiphany...

wiz, Good question. There is still a lot of code written in old languages for primarily three reasons. Legacy systems need to be maintained and expanded. Too often the cost of a rewrite and retraining of existing personnel on a new language is over estimated; as a justification to keep things...

The update was from some time ago. I had to archive-install the system :-(

In an older version of iTunes I dug around for the picture, to no avail. I trust, if Apple wanted their logo appearing in the visualizer, they wouldn't make it easy to remove. I you find it, let us know.

Remember, Cocoa is a Framework (supporting library and services) written in and for Obj-C. Any Cocoa application will be written in Obj-C. The developer tool samples include some obj-c/cocoa samples.

You won't hate it until you are paid to compromise the quality of your product :-) The choice of language is so subjective. Personally, I would use Obj-C. You are making a MaxOSX only app. It has a good Object Model. And most importantly the 2D graphics libraries are a joy to use.

Easter Toast - calling languages obsolete and dead are dangerous statements :-) You would be amazed in the huge computer industry how much new code is still written in those languages. And the people writing that code will fight you to the death if you bash their languages. I have been on both...

Hello, The many different existing computer languages were created to fit different needs. The right language depends what you want to do. On MacOSX the prevalent languages are, Applescript - its primary use is automation. Applescript studio lets you add UI to your scripts. The syntax is...

If you start the visualizer in the window (not full screen) you can click the options button you can change some settings. But that doesn't answer your question. Download G-Force.
