I have a 2006 MacBook Pro I'd like to offer for sale. Specs: Processor 2.16GHz Intel Core Duo RAM: 2GB Hard Drive: Recently upgraded to 320GB. Full Disclosure: It has been dropped a few times and has some dents and some damage to the case. The trackpad and button no longer work, requiring an...

Has anyone tried exporting a video from quicktime using the 'Export to AppleTV' option? I tried exporting a PSP formated movie in MP4 format using this option. 7 hours later it is still processing on my Dual 1GHZ PowerMac G4. If this is going to take this long I can't imagine this being...

I am trying to connect my new Sceptre HDTV to my Powermac G4 MDD via VGA or DVI. In both instances I get 'No Signal' displayed on the screen. I have tested the VGA on my dell laptop and it mirrors as it should. However my Mac refuses to see the monitor. Does anyone have any ideas? I have...

I've had a number of problems with added hardware to my Dual 1GHZ PowerMac G4 MDD. In the beginning it was Ram issues. Then when I added a USB 2.0 card the machine would no longer wake from 'deep sleep'. I've also replaced the original superdrive with a much faster 16X LiteOn SuperDrive and a...

Today I visited a friend who recently aquired a brand new Intel iMac. I went over to show him a few things, he being a mac neophyte. I was shocked at how slow the Mac OS responded to application switching, loading applications that were in the background when clicked on in the dock in comparison...

I am having a problem where my 2 macs, one connecting via airport and the second wired, will pull IP's higher than my router should distribute. For example it would pull 192.x.x.147 whereas I only have 6 machines on my network, each normally pulling 192.x.x.100 - 104. My 2 macs also pull an...

I am having a problem with all of my computers connecting to the web. Each time I try to pull up a website it takes 5-15 seconds for webpages to begin to load. In some cases once the pages begin to load there will be another instance where it will pause for a noticable amount of time before the...

In the Marketplace section of the Wall Street Journal today there is an article titled: 'Minority Report Inspires Technology Aimed at Military. They are developing technology to use your hands to navigate the computer rather than a keyboard and mouse. After looking closely at the picture it...

I added a misspelled word to the spell check for apple's Mail. Does anyone know how to remove it? I know it seems like a dumb question, but I've looked through the preferences and don't see anything. The only thing I can think of is to remove some Library file. Thank You.

Tonight I was completely disappointed by Apple's phone tech support. On Tuesday I called because I had been having trouble with my iPod connecting to iTunes or the iPod updater. So after speaking with a support guy he immediately decides it is broken without hearing me completely out and sends a...

I have a Linkssys Wireless Router - WRT54G. I am trying to find a way to see who is connected. I was outside with my laptop checking to see how far my connection would go. I was shocked to see that I still had 4 bars after being about 100 yards away from my house. (I'm in a new neighborhood...

I'm working on a friend's G4 Powerbook. Last week we upgraded him to 10.3. However during the course of the week he realized his main app Pro Tools wouldn't work without an update and of course he didn't have the serial number available....it was at the office. So his buddy has the bright idea...

Has anyone gotten it yet? If so does anyone want to play online sometime? drop me a message here or on aim at bmd98.

I am just curious. How many of you got an iPod for Christmas. I've heard there were shortages of the 20gig model in some stores and that overall sales were tremendous.

Ever since I downloaded that last security update I've been having a problem with my machine when it goes to sleep. IT NEVER WAKES UP! Well, actually it just freezes when I put it to sleep. Screen doesn't turn off. Mouse disappears, keyboard is non-responsive, and screen is frozen...

Help DVD Drive Won't Close on my iBook 500. It fell off the table and now the drive won't stay shut. If I hold it closed the cd comes up fine. But when I let go the drive pops out. The mechanism that holds the drive shut isn't working. Any idea if this is something I can fix myself? I'm...

Ok, can anyone here who watches Alias tell me what is it with Alias. They've got Macs on all the time, but they always cover up the Apple logo. Although you can usually tell its a mac and sometimes see the glowing logo through the cover. While they cover the Apple Logo they prominently...

I got this USB OverCurrent notice. Does anyone know exactly what it means. I suppose it means i've got too many usb devices plugged in. Is that possible? It happened when I plugged my bluetooth adapter into my usb hub.

Is anyone else having problems getting their comcast email in Apple's Mail.app? This same thing happened to me about a month ago and after about 5 days it just started working again. What happens is that it acts like its connecting and then it gets stuck on "Preparing to Retrieve Messages"...

Does anyone know what the term "NO Goved" means? I've noticed it a few times on Bluetooth and 802.11b items. For example 3com has a bluetooth pcmcia card one with the "No Goved" and the other without that label. This may be a dumb question, but one to which I do not know the answer...
