I'm planning on going to the Apple Store in Short Hills. It's a bigger store than the one in Menlo Park. Although, I could always swing by the Menlo Park store on my way home! :D Maybe I'll run into you ...

You could use Image Capture (comes with Mac OS X) to transfer images from your camera to your Mac. It's in your Applications folder. As a matter of fact, that's what starts up iPhoto when you connect your camera. Image Capture will let you import either all your images, or only some of them...

Check out Graphic Converter. It comes with every Mac, is shareware, and will do exactly what you need it to do. Regards, Marc

They recommend using the PowerBook on a flat surface (like a table) as opposed to your lap or a pillow so that air can circulate underneath. The reason the case feels warm is because aluminum is an excellent conductor of heat; essentially the case is one big heat sink. If you're real concerned...

Good point ... I didn't catch the BTW. Thanks.

I don't think it's the word "forum as I just noticed another post with that word in the title. More than likely the problem is the forward slash "/", as that is a path delimiter in Mac OS X (and unix, Linux, ect). Marc

It absolutely does; and it's very smooth, too! Marc

If this is one of the new PowerBooks (the ones with the two finger scroll and Sudden Motion Sensor) it could be that the Sudden Motion Sensor is detecting the tilt and parking the hard drive heads. This was designed to protect the hard drive in the event of a fall. Regards, Marc

You're welcome!

Hi Eric, You can do one of two things: (By the way, these instructions are based on iMovie 05) 1) Select a clip and click on Edit ..Copy, then create a new project and paste it in, or 2) A better way would be to click on the Share menu, where you can either export for E-Mail or the web...

Hi Nate, I had this same problem with a PixelVision flat panel display. The G5 (happened with my G4 also) would start to go to sleep, then wake up right away. If I tried to shut down it wound up rebooting. What you'd probably have to do is initiate either a shutdown or sleep command, then...

Wow, thanks! That's very cool. Now Expose can have F9, F10, and F11 as originally designed. Thanks again. Regards, Marc

On a PowerBook that has a backlit keyboard, as F9 and F10 are used to control the brightness of the backlight. I guess we'll have to use modifiers (Ctl, shift, Option). Regards, Marc

Hey Gia, 16 hours a day glued to a PowerBook? (I admit, I can understand the attraction!) That doesn't leave much time for "having fun" now, does it? :o Regards, Marc

Why don't you give GraphicConverter a try? You might be happier with the results. Regards, Marc

The signal level is higher. Let me put it this way; if I've got my iPod connected to an amplifier via the headphone jack I've got to turn the volume all the way up to get a decent sound. Using headphones with the volume up that high is certainly not a good idea! The line out is at that higher...

Hi, No, you wouldn't want to plug headphones into the line out jack. 1) It's a fixed output, so you can't adjust the volume. 2) It's a much higher output then the headphone jack. The line out jack is for connecting to either a stereo receiver/amplifier, FM transmitter or cassette...

Hi, They got bumped up when the PowerBooks went from Rev. B to Rev. C, back in April of this year. I'm waiting for the next bump of the PowerBooks, which should be this fall; then I'm going for a 17"er. Regards, Marc

Hi, I don't think that OS X can write to an NTFS partition; it can only read from it. Regards, Marc

Hi Fryke, Could you post some details on the 7448? I can't find any on Freescale's website. What speed will it run at, what kind of cache, ect. Thanks! Regards, Marc
