    USB Memory stick problems

    while I'd bet on the log out/reboot working, if it doesn't maybe check the finder preferences, that somehow yanking it didn't reset the viewing options to NOT show the mounted volumes. sorry, not in front of my powerbook now, so don't know the exact terms...

    Post Election - Chaos?

    just glad it's all over at this point. nice that Kerry was stand-up about it and conceded instead of firing up the lawyer engines and drawing this thing out. I hope had things been turned around - that Bush would have done the same thing. guess the whole Redskins myth is not debunked...

    full filepath in finder windows

    i don't know in panther, but supposedly (according to recently leaked screen shots of Tiger) it'll be in Finder when Tiger is released... don't quote me of course, I just saw a pic on the internet - take it with a grain of salt. :)

    Post Election - Chaos?

    holy crap - can we all just drop it and live with what happens (whenever it happens, and whomever ithappens to)? We're (the Americans on the boards here) still among the luckiest people around the world, to live in a free democracy. pre-politics, this board was a great place to be. it's...

    Post Election - Chaos?

    But what about Uncle Dick? :p I'll say it again - I just hope it's fairly clear to one side, who the winner is. then we won't (hopefully - dang lawyers/sore loosers) have to drag this out for the next couple months...

    Post Election - Chaos?

    this thread is precisely why I don't talk politics. it never seems to end up well. vote. that's all. let the winner win, and the loser lose...whomever they may be. everyone's entitled to their opinions and entitled to interpret news/facts/etc however they please. respect peoples' stance...

    Using a iTunes pruchased song in a movie?

    as long as it's only for personal use (ie, not for profit), I believe that's ok. here's how you get the purchased music into FCP: (MODS - feel free to edit this out, as I don't know if it's against the rules to post this method...though I think I've seen it on the forums before) burn...

    New Tiger screenshots

    Over at AppleInsider: http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=728 Burnable Folders and Smart Folders being the hilights. Though a couple of the images look a little un-Apple-like (too busy/convoluted, and Brushed Metal, none of the newish theme we've been seeing), so I wonder how legit...

    why is python hogging my cpu?

    thanks for the reply. just curious about the WindowServer...kinda thought that's what it was. definitely not stupid enough (?) to quit it though. :) ran the ps -axw and didn't see anything related to python. I'm thinking it came from one of the konfabulator widgets. need to quit...

    Question about starting to build websites

    try here to start: macdevcentral I've got a lot of helpful tips and resources in my del.icio.us bookmarks too, though they're really scattered around into odd categories at this point...need to clean them up some. my del.icio.us http://devshed.com is another good place to check.

    Cleaning up a Powerbook HD...

    careful with monolingual though, if you choose the wrong things, it'll render your keyboard unuseable...this is experience talking here. ;) BUT, it ended up being a good thing, because I did my weekly backup the previous night, and just did an entire, clean install. I free-d up over 15gb of...

    G5 Ultra

    i'm in 100% dream mode here, but hear me out anyway... :) If you've got the dual card, save yourself a few dollars and get *2* 20" displays. Then you end up with 40 effective inches, for less than the 30" display will run you. then you can take advantage of that phat graphics card you paid...

    why is python hogging my cpu?

    so I've noticed lately that my cpu usage is up a little higher than it [should be] usually is when idle. I checked to see what was periodically hogging the cpu, and the 2 things that come up most are: Python WindowServer so what would be running python? i've never done anything with...

    Direct camera to iPod wire transfer (Firewire or USB2.0)

    brian: I don't want to deal with the logistics of it, I just want it to work! ;) yeah, there are enough hurdles that the current form factor might need a change (an additional port, etc). hmmmm. well regardless, I still think the iPod Photo platform would have been that ideal...

    Direct camera to iPod wire transfer (Firewire or USB2.0)

    With the release of the iPod Photo, the topic of this thread seems to be the killer feature that Apple missed. as soon as I read that an iPod Photo had been released, the first feature I hoped to find upon reading Apple's product page, was a direct digi cam connection for downloading (temp...

    AppleScripts in the menu bar?

    well in a finder window, you can just drag a script to the toolbar, but I'm guessing you mean the actual menu bar at the top of the desktop... dunno about that.

    Post Election - Chaos?

    What's sad to me is that people can't just let elections be anymore. Everything is contested after the fact. No one seems to be a graceful loser anymore. (I'm not eluding to either of the current candidates, just stating my take on things) I'm so not looking forward to this election day...

    Apple Website A Poor Online Experience?

    arguments about the design of the site could go on forever. that's pretty subjective. The issue I have with apple.com is the information architecture. It's all over the place, and things aren't in the most logical categorizations. I'm sure it began in an organized way, but as has been...
