At my local cafe my airport seems to be working great, full signal and all, and yet I get NO internet. I know it can't be the cafe's problem because their were plently of other people using the internet via wi-fi, but mine would no work at all. In network diagnostics everything was online and...

The other day I noticed a strange clicking sound coming apparantly from the left speaker of my Macbook Pro. It sounded almost like a disc skipping when the computer is trying to read it, only VERY faint. It was fully charged at the time, but it was still plugged in. I unplugged the charger cable...

I had heard somewhere that charging something constantly is bad for the battery. I've been cautious with my Macbook Pro and unplug it when it's full charged. Is this necessary? What are the repercussions of charging 24/7? Thanks.

I recently bought a new Macbook and discovered that it did not come with stuffit installed. When I realized that I probably now had some choice as to what to use, I thought I would explore other options for various reasons. What else is out there that can open .sit's?

I recently purchased a Macbook Pro and I was messing around with filesharing to get some stuff off my old iMac onto my new macbook. My brother transferred files from the iMac to his G5 before so I was trying to go about it the same way. I hit command+k and typed in my iMacs IP, then left the...

The title pretty much explains it all. GarageBand I feel is somewhat limited...what do producers and such use?

Hi, My father is in Spain right now and brought his recently purchased iBook G4 with him. He sent me an e-mail however, asking whether he needs "only an adaptor or a transformer" to plug his Mac in. Any input is appreciated, thanks.

After recently uploading an album to iTunes I found that the tracks annoyingly had their respective track numbers before the song titles, ie "01 - Song, 02 - Song," etc. But when I tried to take the numbers out it rearranged the songs alphabetically. How do I rename them while maintaining the...

I just bought a new stereo for my car which has an AUX IN port. I bought a headphone-to-headphone cable so I could hook my iPod up to it and today when I tested it it sounded AWFUL. Like, really bad. The vocals were completely inaudible and the rest of the track sounded really scratchy. I turned...

I mostly need a program that will slowdown songs without altering the pitch. I used Transcribe! for a while but my trial period ran out and there's no way I'm paying $50 for it. I tried Slow Downer but as it was also a trial it only allowed me to play the first 1/4 of the song. Anyone know a...

I'm doing a project for my marketing class in which I must create a fake business and write a prospectus. I chose to do an indy record store, but I need some info about them. If you work at one of these or know any of the answers, I would greatly appreciate it. 1. How many CDs do you have in...

Howdy, I have a problem that has been going on for quite some time now. I have the first clickwheel iPod (the one that came right before the Photo), and while I'm listening to it it will suddenly pause randomly. At first I thought this had to do with a feature that automatically pauses if the...

I'm looked through pretty much all of them that come with it and have "hip-hop" in the name, and I can't find any that are even remotely hip-hopish. Any suggestions under other names maybe? What is the drum beat that sounds the most basic and could plausibly be in a rap song?

I'm new to the webcam thing, but I was wondering if theres a way I could have a video conference thing with a friend who has a PC. What would be the best way to do that?

I read that you can just rename the .mdf to .iso but I tried it and after I burned it it did not work. Any other programs or methods that are more effective?

Hi all, The title basically explains my major question. I found one program to do this, but it involves some serious Terminal work and I've barely dealt with the Terminal in my Mac career. If simple .rar compression is not possible, what is the easiest method for .zip compression? I tried a...

Hi everyone, I recently downloaded something that was compressed in the .7z format. I searched on the web for a while, and found a program called 7za that is supposed to allow Mac OS X users to decompress .7z's. However, after installing it I found that it required me to input some strange...

Ever since I updated to Tiger my Knights of the Old Republic has crashed on start-up. I used Aspyr's support form and asked them about it and they said there were some issues with Tiger and they would be releasing a patch shortly. That was about a month ago and they haven't added anything to...

Whenever I scroll up, and I mean ALL THE TIME, it will start to scroll up then suddenly scroll back down. It's amazingly frustrating. It's definitely not the batteries, and it's not Tiger as it has been doing it since Panther or maybe even Jaguar. Any help would be appreciated.

First and foremost: I am a mac noob. I've been using them since the original imacs, but I don't really know how to do that much in-depth stuff with it. Anyway: With Tiger coming out, I've been wanting to really improve the efficiency of my old 800mhz iMac G4. I used System Optimizer, but I...
