Hello all, it seems that for video, this is the most relevant forum. Okay, I recently transferred 157 each 50' reels of family super 8mm movies, spanning 30 years of family history (and was I an adorable baby or what?), to video using this (so darn cool). I made many different DVDs of all...

Actually, the post title is not quite true. Only one of these people I am helping is a true switcher, the other wants a new Mac. Both are my parents (divorced). Dad wants to dump Windows and go to a Mac, but I am finding it very difficult to explain to him the new Mac processors and the fact...

I do something very similar to what Mikuro suggested. I'm not suggesting you go out and spend a bunch on new drives, but that is what I have done. I have 3 external 250 gb for video and one of them is pretty much relgated to being a backup while I regularly reinitialize one of the other two...

Tex - FYI, my boss was having the same exact problem and Apple has sent him a new iPod video - after only four hours on the phone.

Try the smoothing. If that doesn't give good results, maybe you might try editing the time/playback on this clip in QuickTime, then plug it back into your iMovie project? Can you play your iMovie file to a TV from your computer (via a DA converter or using your camcorder as a DA converter? If it...

Zeddah, I am a kind soul now and then, but I don't have an answer for you! Still, I am really surprised that an Apple software product would require what is essentially a hack to run on a new/up to date Mac. It makes no sense and is just not right. Any calls into Apple on this? Maybe they would...

I know you can't wait this long, but often you get the best deal a few months after all the new models come out. Then it is almost always best to buy the middle range model of whatever system you are interested in (not the fastest/biggest, not the slowest/smallest...). I have done this for years...

Thanks for all the replies and all the ideas! Heck, we have the whole range here from the simple and practical to the extreme (Satcure - I read your page and will keep it in mind if all else fails). I think I will try Junkmaster, but I really think the problem here is mostly with Comcast - else...

Hello, I did a forum search and did not find an answer to my specific question. I have been using Mail since the day it came out, but junk mail is getting worse and worse. I have been training for junk mail consistently, yet the same exact messages (though from different senders) keep coming...

Hello, I searched on this, but found nothing. For the past week or two, every time I turn on my Mac my trash can shows up with something in it. At first I thought I had just forgetton to empty it, but I am kind of anal about this so today I stopped to see what was in it. In the trash is a...

Ads are what pay for TV (other than pay channels like HBO which I really enjoy). Sorry, but without the commericals there is no TV. It's not exactly cheap to produce you know. So, any discussion about TV without accounting for the commercial aspect and a viable economic model is really just...

never mind

Amen Captian, look at this reply from Kohler below. Still, I think we should keep writing them. "8/15/2005..Thank you for your email. Sorry you feel that way about using our web. Please contact us again if we can assist you further. Barb V" Wow, what smooth customer support skills! She...

Well, it worked a lot better than what I found in straight Google searches. It was almost spooky. Honestly, I think I know how to search and there were two sites here that I did not see in my scores of searches. Who would have thought macosx.com was the place to go for home remodeling! :-)

Man, how do you guys do it!!! I have been searching and searching for a web site of a company that sells interesting "Euro" showers and right here on the Macosx.com site, you picked up on my thread and put some links up at the top and one led me to a really cool company that looks exactly like...

Hello All, I am just sick and tired of websites with various applications that don't support Macs. I am a new home owner and I have the renovation bug. Everytime I find a store with some kind of home related application, I have to go to my stupid PC. The last two - Ikea's kitchen planner and...

So, should I start working on my VideoPodCasts?

Just chiming in here. I have used Macs with 68020s, Power PCs, G4s and 5s... and the chip never, in my mind, made the computer. Macs have always been the most personal of PCs. My Mac works the way I need it to, while your Mac works the way you need it too. It's the OS that makes a Mac a Mac...

Hey, this does not deserve a new thread, but it relates to Mail for Tiger and is driving me nuts. Mail in Tiger seems to have an auto correct feature and I can't turn it off. Whenever I type "FYI" it spells out "for your information." I don't want it to do this and I I use "fyi" a lot! I can...

In ClarisWorks you had the available UI controls for text, spreadsheets, drawing and databases in *one* document. In addition, you didn't have all the crazy formatting issues that Word users so often encounter when inserting charts/tables... between the office apps. While Office claims "seamless...
