Using a 4.8G iMac, and am returning to music development using Logic, after a long hiatus. I previously used an external stand-a-lone burner for top audio quality on the master. Can I rely on the internal burner now, or should I invest in a new external? If external is better, what models...

Am I missing something?....my Lacie 250 mounts consistently using Firewire 400 cable, but not 800. Have tried different cables...different start-ups....etc. Using it with a new 2.8 GHz iMac with 4 GB of RAM. Any ideas?

Over time I've built up two different music libraries and iTunes Playlists on different Macs. Is there a way to simply sync them all onto one iPod (Touch) without dragging them one by one between computers?

On a trip in our RV, connected to the internet with a Verizon card, working fine on my MacBook Pro....trying to link to wife's Macbook via Firewire.....it's worked before but not now. Have read the brief Mac Help, but it's only the basics and nothing helpful there. Would appreciate...

We use our MacBook Pro in our RV, usually in campgrounds with wifi. Often we're not near the transmitter, and the signal is unusable. We've seen Yagi antennas on other RV's, and wonder how one of these might be used with our Mac. Specifically, what do I need to connect such an antenna to the...

Apple just repaired my 1yr-old MacBook Pro, without explanation. The thumb bar had become increasingly hard to press, and finally was frozen in the down position. Couldn't even use an external mouse as the thumb bar over-road it. I'm happy with the repair and very curious whether others have...

Haven't had an iPhone in my hands yet but am thirsting for one. People keep talking about a possible software upgrade to add iChat. Important question: Is the camera lens video capable and on the screen side of the phone? -- which would be necessary to permit video iChat......or will we need...

I haven't been on the forum in a while, and can't find anything that looks like my question, but if it's been discussed, please refer me. Are there any plans for iChat to include a Video Capture feature? My biggest use for iChat is to watch my grandaughter grow up 2,000 miles away, and I'd...

Surely I'm not the only one. Is this a hardware or system problem? Under no circumstances will the lid stay closed on my 17" MacBook, even when I shut it off. It sits about 1" open. Do I take it in for repair, or is there a quick fix? Terry

Bought Windows XP today and tried to install in Parallels Workstation. I want to use MapPoint, not available for Macs. Everything worked fine, and Windows runs perfectly, except when I try to activate/register Windows, it won't accept the Product Key. It appears there's some glitch in...

I've been using an Airport Express station to bridge to our Airport Extreme base station in the basement. This morning I used the Airport Admin utility to set a password and, apparently mistakenly, only selected the base station. I gave it a new name and password.....thinking I would do the...

My daughter is a network tech and reports that her new Macbook Pro is dropping 50% of packets on VoIP connections -- and next to none on WiFi or direct ethernet. She's being told by other network techs that this not uncommon with Intel chips (on PCs) and is not a defect of her particular Mac...

Running 10.3.9 on a tiBook. With system audio control at maximum, iChat audio is at acceptable level, but we can barely hear the prompts indicating messages received. We're using video chat to see our new granddaughter, and we don't want to miss the connections. Any suggestions? Terry

That's the question. I'm using Office X For Mac .. haven't upgraded to Office:Mac 2004.......will Office X work with Rosetta? Also wondering about a few other pieces of software. Where can I find a list? Terry

Just set up the new G-5 iMac. Went through the Setup Wizard, the camera took my picture for the Account record. Then, when I opened iChat the screen said the camera is in use by another application. No other applications are open. Ideas would be appreciated......what am I missing? Terry

My son has an iMac, roughly year 2000, I assume a G-3 back then, and running System 9. I'd like to give him iChat and an iSight camera so we can see our grandaughter. Will it work?....or what would be involved in getting it to work?

What Mac-compatible software can be used for plotting multiple addresses on a map? We've used Microsoft's MapPoint, which is not MAC compatible, and I'm looking for a comparable program for Mac. Would appreciate all suggestions. Terry
