    Can I replace my Apple TV HDD wih a bigger one?

    Streaming is a great option. However it is not ideal for everyone. Potential problems with streaming: 1. Mac must be on the entire time. I don't want to go across my house to power on my computer everytime I sit down in my living room to watch tv. This would also be a pain for those with...

    Cannot Retrieve Address Book details from a Backup

    It could have something to do with the fact that you are working in a different version of Addressbook than what it was exported from. You should try using the same version. This means you may need to be running the same Mac OS 10.x.x version. Goodluck.

    I just started having a similar problem with my PowerBook 1GHZ G4. I guess these drives weren't built to last.

    transfer songs from one itunes on pc to ipod that is sinced on a mac

    At a minimum I'd suggest you use a program to pull the music off your iPod onto one of your other machines. Then you can sync your iPod with the other computer. However, I think it probably makes the most sense to remove the hard drive from your iBook, connect it to a drive bridge/casing and...

    trouble with audio input on mac mini

    Recent Macs do not have a Mic jack or an audio jack that includes a third ring for a headset with a built in mic. If an iMac or Macbook/Pro it should have a built in mic with the camera. MacPros and MacMini's would need an iSight Camera which includes a built in microphone. You could also...

    Airport Extreme Port forwarding problems

    I've never tried port mapping with my AE's. I've got two, one on the upstairs Home Entertainment Center and one on the Downstairs stereo. And I use a Linksys Vonage Router to assign IP addresses.

    Challenge! Feelin' Lucky, PUNK?

    My guess would be that the connectors for the hard drive ribbon cable are damaged. In other words you'll probably have to replace the whole board.

    External FW Hard Drive not mounting...

    Does it appear in terminal?' Type "cd /volumes" and then "ls" (leave off quotations) Does the drive appear along with the others? If so it should still be there. If not try another disk utility program such as Disk Warrior or Norton Utilities or Tech Tool. Also it is possible that the drive...

    Dual Boot Problem

    I have the same computer albeit a Dual 1GHZ. Have you tried reinstalling OS9 from the OS9 disc? Just a thought: It's possible that the last time those drives were formatted that the OS9 drivers were not installed or perhaps they're corrupt. If possible erase one of the drives and reformat...

    Crashed hard disk tool?

    I have a similar situation from a MacBook drive. I'd tried Disk Warrior and DataRescue, but to no avail. Since those failed me I've sent it to aerodr.com in hopes that they will be able to recover my drive. Has anyone had any experience with them? They are flat fee at $289. However, I had to...

    Computer wont sleep

    I mean anything that didn't come with the computer itself. An archive and install is when you use the CD's that came with the computer to do a reinstall of the Mac OS. It actually archives your current information, reinstalls the OS, and places your all of your personal information, bookmarks...

    My AppleTV runs quite hot as well. However, I am running it with an upgraded 160GB Hitachi drive. It is connected to my Pioneer Receiver via component and optical cables. I've also got the RCA cables plugged in which routes audio to a second preamp for karaoke. So far it hasn't had any...
