Hey team. I was traveling in Latin America with my MacBook last week, and one day when I pressed the power key, all I got was a gray screen. I took it to an Apple "authorized retailer" down there, and the 'genius' determined that my hard drive had failed. When he inserted the install CD with the...

Hey guys, I recently installed Crossover to run uTorrent on my Macbook. I soon noticed a strange, rather annoying, high pitched whining that could be described as a hiss coming from what I first thought was my computer. I noticed that the whine would increase in pitch, and then pop. The pop...

Hey all, it's been a while since I've posted here, but recently Safari has been crashing on my MacBook. I think it may happen most frequently when I'm trying to switch to a new web address before the current one has completely loaded. Is anyone else having this problem? I am pasting the first...

Hey everyone, over the past two days, I've received over 300 bounces or 'delivery failure' notices to my .Mac account for spam mail that appears as if it was sent through my account. I understand that he is most likely does not have access to my account, and is simply making it appear that it is...

I recently purchased an Airport Express, but I lost the install CD for it. Does anyone have a copy of the "Airport Express Setup Utility" they'd be willing to send to me? I called AppleCare and they said since it's Labor Day weekend, I probably wouldn't get the replacement CD until the end of...

Alright people-- here's the deal. In my house, I have a G4 Cube and G5 tower both connected to a buffalo tech router, connected to the LAN of my Airport Extreme. I also have an Airport Express with Airtunes enabled (streaming to a stereo), and two laptops (iBook and PowerBook) connected...

Who here knows what exact time Apple product updates/announcements appear on the website? Is it constant or does it vary? I suppose if some sort of talk or speech is being given, it would appear while it is being unveiled there... Normally 8 AM PST? 12 Noon PST?

Hey everyone, I don't know about anyone else, but I'm having a lot of trouble streaming music from my desktop to my laptop wirelessly over iTunes 4.5. I am connected over 802.11b and streaming standard 128kbps AAC's, and I am getting about 6 seconds of music for every 7 seconds of buffering...

Hello- I have a 2001 iceBook G3, and I have had continual problems with Apple's chargers for it. I have gone through 3 so far (on my fourth one currently), and am very ticked off-- especially since Apple refuses to pay for the replacement. All 3 broke in the same way: the piece of rubber, which...

It could just be me... but is that lady wearing an iPod?

I'd like to get you gents opinions on when the next G5 speed update is due for. I'm thinking about getting a dual 2.0, but I've waited 3 years, I can wait a few more months (MacWorld January maybe?). It seems like it hasn't been that long since they only started shipping in mid August, but they...

I have my preferences set to require password when waking from sleep or screen saver. The problem I am experiencing is that when I open up my iBook (from sleep), the screen flashes (the current open files/folders) before turning black and requiring password. Is this a known flaw? Couldn’t it be...

I seem to remember that there used to be a way to delete posts on this board, but recently I checked, and it seems to have disappeared... am I just not looking in the right place, or was I just stoned beforehand?

I was looking at the G5 page, and it currently still reads that it ships with a specially tuned version of X.2 (Jaguar). Is this still the case, or as the page simply not been updated? I remember a while ago, it was claimed that Panther was going to be a 64-bit OS, or at least have a 64-bit...

Today Apple coputer and Altec Lansing Corp. introduced the first of the rumored iPod peripherals-- a portable audio system. Not quite what I was expecting, and not exactly revolutionary-- but if i find $150 on a street somewhere, I might consider it... Your thoughts?

... this time the offender is Dell. More information can be found here. For gags, I have attached a picture of the new ripoff--

Hey there... does anyone know of a script/program that can look though your iTunes tracks, sampling artist, track name, and time information, looking for duplicates, and then inform you of the potential clones? If there isnt, is there someone out there capable of writing one?

If you have a dual display system and you play a wide screen movie in full screen mode, would it play across both displays?

I suppose the next question is where do you go to buy ram for the PMac G5 that wont cost you your house, car, and first born. Not crucial.com yet apperently...
