I have a few Macs in my condo, and I'm able to connect between all of them with Screen Sharing/Remote Management with no problem. I recently bought a Mac Mini Server to use as a HTPC/Server with OSX Server installed. I can connect to any of my other computers FROM the server with Screen...

My last laptop was a 17" 2.4 GHz Macbook Pro which just died when it fell out of a bag I was putting on a shelf. I just bought a new Unibody 17" with the same amount of RAM (4GB) and it seems noticeably less responsive to me. The new unibody has a 5400RPM HD compared to my old one which had a...

I have had 3.0 installed for a few days, and last night an icon showed up in the upper right corner that I haven't seen before. What is it? Never saw it on 2.0.

So I have an AVI file that won't even load in quicktime, but it plays fine in VLC and MPlayer. As far as I can tell neither of these programs let you adjust the color, contrast or brightness of the file. Does anyone know of a program that will allow me to do this?

Both have 256 MB memory, but which is faster? I have the 8600M in my MBP and the 9400M (currently with 128MB memory, but will have 256MB once I upgrade to more ram).

CBS.com launched the ability to play 1080p shows streaming from online. I have been trying to watch them with my Mac Mini, but even after I leave it buffering for a while, the movies are still choppy. It plays fine on my 2.4ghz MacBook Pro. Is there anyway to make this stop being laggy? I'm...

So I got 1080p to display on my plasma. The only problem I have is that when I try to run iTunes visualizers (any) it switches to 1080i. When I stop the visualizer the computer goes back to displaying 1080p. Anyone know a way to keep it on 1080p all the time?

I have a plasma I'm trying to hook a Mac Mini up to. I am using a Mini-DVI to DVI adapter, and then a DVI to VGA adapter to hook up to it. The TV isn't getting a signal though. Will this setup work, or are there too many adapters?

Whenever I run Software Update and download something (or from iTunes), files pretty much download twice as fast as anything else I download. I'm on cable and I get around 1.5 MBs/second for Apple downloads, and I usually get around 500kbs-900kbs for everything else. Has anyone else noticed...

So I am obsessed with Mac Minis, and have bought at least one of every generation. Now that I bought a couple of the newest ones to be my new HTPCs, I have a bunch of unused ones. I do some web design and 3D work as a hobby. I bought OSX Server 10pack and a 10.5 Family Pack. I want to...

I was wondering if there is a product that consists of a female ipod dock connector which is connected to a set of female rca plugs. Pretty much what I have is an ipod dock hooked up to a stereo, and I want to be able to play something else through the dock.

So I bought a custom iPod from colorwarepc.com. I had it custom painted with the name of my new yacht. The first one cost a lot, but I'm going to buy a few for family members that will cost less. Here are some pics:

soo... my iPhone just started randomly beeping and woke me up. Not very loudly, and not with any sound that you can access on the phone. It was beeping twice a second. I turned the phone of and back on and it went away. What the heck was going on?

I have a SD card that has some files on it that I need. When I put it in my card reader and plug it into the USB it doesnt mount. I tried it in another card reader and it wont work in that one either. I opened Disk Utility and it shows that it mounts it for a split second and shows the size...

I have a 5th gen. iPod and bought some games. When I try to put them on the iPod, iTunes says "This computer is not authorized to play these games". I bought them from iTunes on this computer. Any ideas?
