I know there is an app that allows access of the iDisk from the iPhone, but does anyone know of a way to access disks connected to an Airport? Not looking to stream music or anything, but occassionally get to a file or 2. Any thoughts?

I noticed that my macbook and pc were occassionally having an issue where it would take a long time to find a website. A few minutes later it would get through with no issue. This issue happened on a number of websites, and there's no rhyme nor reason. I think the issue lies in the DNS...

I recently upgraded to OS X 10.5, and now a script I use for sending messages from Caller ID to iChat no longer works. Is anyone aware of changes that have been made to parameters or field names that would effect this? I have included the script below...

Now, I know a lot of people seem to have issues with dotMac, but I have always thought it was pretty decent and worth it. Now, it's becoming MobileMe. Now, the name itself is pretty dumb, but it really adds features that are great for iPhone users. Push email, push calendar, push contacts...

In the past 2 weeks iChat on my system has started having issues. It will suddenly log me off AIM or will disconnect me, but appear that I am still online. I have tried changing the port, and that has not helped. I have switched to using adium with the same id, and that is stable, so I...

I recently downloaded the DynDNS updater, and ran into an issue. The program requires an Admin account to run. For security/best practices reasons, the computer it's running on doesn't log into an admin account. Is there a way to run a siingle program with admin rights? Like su to admin...

I'm running iPhoto 6, and recently tried to install a plug in for Shutterfly. Needless to say that does not seem to work, and now I can't seem to export from iPhoto at all. When I push export nothing happens. Any ideas on how to correct this?

With the release of the AppleTV and Airport Extreme, and the ever popular iTunes updates, I started wondering what the next piece of the media puzzle is. In my mind the next device I would love to see is a simplified media server. I would imagine it would be something along the lines of...

Earlier today I picked up the Belkin Expresscard multimedia card reader. I have to say I am less than impressed with this device so far. When it works it's great, but t seems to have issues with some SD cards. Keep in mind i have multiple SD cards of the same type, maker and size. Some work...

Subrasoft released Das Boot which lets you build a boot device on any usb device. What free utilities would you suggest. I'm looking for things like disk utilities, etc. Thanks

With all the hoopla over the AppleTV and the iPhone, seems no one is talking about the Airport Extreme. Anyone have any thoughts on this device? Seems like a pretty good wireless hub, and the Airport disk seems like a simple NAS solution.

Now, we keep hearing rumors about the iPhone, and quitely I am not that impressed, but I do have a phone type question. I have a cell phone and a standard land line. Now, my cell phone syncs nicely with my mac and has all my numbers on it. But my home phone can't communicate to my mac (or...

So, maybe I want it all... but, eyeTV 2.3 has added a full screen menu similar to Front Row. However, just like Front Row, it only works on the primary monitor. I run an MBP with an attached second monitor which I use for viewing the tv feed. Anyone, know how to make it work so the...

I have an interesting case where two iTunes libararies have been combined. Let's call them account x and account y. On one machine both accounts are authorized so it's no big deal. However, on a second system only account x is authorized. Is there anyway to create a list of songs that...

I broke down and bought a 15" MBP a couple of weeks ago when my 12" PB died. I have noticed that anytime I use the DVD drive (too install software, burn a cd, watch a dvd) it then won't recognize any other dvd's until I reboot the machine. Matter of fact it doesn't respond at all and I...

Probably a dumb question and the answer is probably no, but I will ask anyway. I recently upgraded to a 5G iPod which i love, but I notice one feature that I was surprised wasn't added. On my powerbook I use iCal all the time and sync it to my iPod. I have things color coded. How come the...

I don't usually gripe aobut Apple products, and have found most to be pretty ok. However, iLife 06 has really annoyed me. Actually, not the whole suite, but iWeb, and iPhoto. For the most part I like the latest iPhoto, but it has one major flaw. In the past you were able to quickly create...

I just updated my system to iPhoto 6. I understand that with iLife 6 the direction is to use iWeb. However, I have a lot of files that I have already published using the .Mac homepage feature. Is there anyway to publish to Homepage instead of iWeb? If not is there at least a way to add...

My Powerbook currently has an 80Gb hard drive that is getting pretty darn full. I plan to do some cleaning, but I am starting to consider getting a larger hd for it. Now, I know I could do the swap myself, but I was wondering if it was worth the hassle versus sending out to a company like...

I am not sure if this is an issue or not. I have a PB running 10.4.5 and iSync 2.1.1. Now I know with the release of Tiger there were some changes to how iSync works with .Mac. I recently got a Motorola Razr, and have it syncing through iSync as well with no issues. However, if I...
