    Special needs for iPod

    I have a 2 year old with special needs. One of the things that he does is listening therapy. Basically, he listens to special music through special headphones a few times a day. The music is your normal kids stuff (wheels on the bus go round and round, abc song, bingo, etc.) but the tone is...

    iBook wireless network problems

    Friends, Every time I open my 500mhz iBook every computer and my IP phone lose their internet connection. I used to use a Cisco 340 wireless hub with in conjunction with a SMC Barricade switch/firewall. Guessing that was the problem I bought a linksys wireless-switch-firewall unit to...

    Mozilla defends itself against Safari

    I think their point was that Chimera was using a very old version of Gecko. I don't think they were suggesting that Apple was cheating. Vanguard

    Jobs is top CEO for Technologies (Forbes)

    It's interesting to me that the top Tech CEOs are all about salesmenship while the other CEOs are all about profits. Warren Buffet isn't as a talented a speaker as Jobs but he's a lot more successful. Chambers is another awesome saleman but I'm not that impressed with what Cisco has been...

    Mozilla defends itself against Safari

    Slashdot has linked to a pretty cool article from Mozilla. The article mostly talks about the code size of Moz and the idea that comparing it to an incomplete product like Safari is unfair. Here are some quotes that I liked. Anyway, check out the article. It's a good read. Vanguard

    Powerbook review

    I guess I'm the first one to post this: review It's a review of the new powerbook. He spends a lot of time on the negative but in the end he says that he mostly likes it. It seems like an unbiased and fair review from a longtime but demanding MacHead. Enjoy, Vanguard

    ibook update?

    When I read the thread title I thought, "They already updated the iBook. They just called it a 12" PowerBook." I assumed that the iBook would fade away and that the various PowerBooks would take their place. However, I would trust the guys on the rumour site before I would place any faith...

    Dell

    It's so lame to rip on Dell for doing this. I knew the people on this board would poke at Dell for doing something that Apple did first. When Apple removed the drive the most popular accessory for the iMac was a floppy drive. Doesn't that make Apple out of touch? I can't remember the...

    Step up Apple...

    If Safari deletes everything in your home directory then it's a major problem. Really, Apple has implied that it's ready for you to use. It's on the Apple homepage inviting you to download it and Steve Jobs stood up on stage and said "...it's a beta. A *strong* beta." Really, I didn't...

    MWSF - Mixed emotions, really mixed.

    On the docking station thing, I could live with just a single cable, the video. I could also live with the decreased performance of 802.11g or even 802.11b. I've never heard of bluetooth speakers but I guess it could happen. I doubt this will be cheaper than a docking station. My docking...

    PB Critics tear Apple apart

    Wow, this number get's lower every time I see it. I'm also seeing that Linux is about to become the #2 desktop OS, taking Apple's spot. For me, I like the smaller powerbook. If I were in the market and I was a normal person, that's what I'd get. But for me, an OS that doesn't run Java 1.4...

    How many of you are using Safari?

    I had too many problems with safari. I tried it for a few hours and submitted two bugs. I use another forum like this one but it's for woodworking. With safari, it never uses my preferences. Without my those, the site is almost unusable. Also, my wife uses a web based email system (...

    MWSF - Mixed emotions, really mixed.

    I'm a computer programmer by trade. At work, I use a high end IBM thinkpad, at home I use it and/or my iBook for surfing the web, working on software/papers for school. (Yeah, lousy sentence structure, I know) Everyday day at work I drop my thinkpad into the docking station and my monitor...

    MWSF - Mixed emotions, really mixed.

    If apple wants to really build desktop replacements they need to start selling docking stations. As for the guys how didn't like macworld, they are well spoken they make good points. People who are not sastified can contribute to apple's future direction. Vanguard

    A little help for the clueless....

    First post with Safari on MacOSX.com!

    for me, removing the safari folder in my library then resinstalling fixed it. Still, I can't use safari yet. Not remembering my password to a show stopper for me. I've submitted two bugs already. I didn't bother with the bad install thing yet. Also, not importing my bookmarks from mozilla...

    Did a bunch of reinstalls and deleted my preferences. Now it opens but it didn't import my bookmarks from IE. :(
