    iLife '05 Warning

    iLife 05 has some serious bugs. iPhoto's performance reminds me of iPhoto from a couple of years ago and iMovie HD has major problems with importing and pass-thru mode. My video camera won't work with it now in pass-thru mode to import video from my VCR. So hopefully, an update is coming...

    Received iLife

    Haven't played with it much yet. But I still find one major problem with its design. The developers of iLife still don't seem to understand the concept of allowing multiple users to share a photo library or music library. On my Power Mac, I have converted all my cd's. They are located under...

    I've got $350 to burn on my G5. What should I get?

    I figure I'll make it the data drive for my video editing. Should I also put my /Users on this as well? Or should I leave that on my primary drive?

    I've got $350 to burn on my G5. What should I get?

    I'm looking to add a second drive to my dual G5 2.0 system. I've got a 250GB drive already. I'm doing quite a bit of video editing on my system and my wife is storing a lot of photos on it. I would like to get a external SATA enclosure and run RAID but I can't afford that for now. So I'm...

    New G5 shipping delays

    Don't directly attach your G5 to your cable/dsl modem. The router has built-in firewall. So combining that with your G5's firewall, you should be plenty safe. Look for either a Linksys, Netgear, or D-Link. They are all similar although the D-Link I had didn't seem as configurable for...

    New G5 shipping delays

    My shipping status hasn't changed at all. The estimated date is to be on or before 6/21. Does that mean the day it ships or the day I'm supposed to receive it? If its 6/21, which is Monday, I would have expected it to have shipped by now. But if its late, no bother. I'm in the process of...

    4th Generation iPod COMMING SOON!

    Great. Another iPod from Apple. What we really want to see are some new computers. Or has Apple forgotten how to build them? Or worse, doesn't care to be in the computer business anymore and forgotten to tell their customers.

    I've had 5 system crashes this week

    I've applied the latest security patch. Other than that, the only thing I can think of is I've imported a lot of photos into iPhoto (iLife '04). I now have over 2100 photos in it. But all my panics have occurred when the screensaver was running or the iBook had switched to sleep mode. I'm...

    Could this be the beginning of the end for iTunes?

    http://wwww.wjla.com/news/stories/0104/121617.html More power to them. I'm all in favor of more power to the musicians, even if it means the end of iTunes as we know it. The music labels existence is threatened and I'm glad for it.

    Who actually owns Fairplay?

    Its driving me crazy. I keep hearing conflicting reports. Some say Apple won't license fairplay to other music sites or companies like Microsoft. Others say Apple only licenses fairplay. So which is it? If Apple owns fairplay, they should license it to others. Why would Steve keep this from...

    iLife -- appears I'm screwed and must pay another $50?

    We already have iTunes 4.2. Does this mean we won't be getting anymore updates to iTunes for free? Which means we won't be able to get any updates to the Music Store. Apple can't be this stupid or arrogant can they? Don't care if iMovie is updated. I'm using FCE. And I'll pay for the upgrade...

    How do I remove a folder from the screen saver settings?

    I created a folder in the screen saver utility. I have since removed that folder. How do I get it out of the screen saver utility now? I'm running Panther.

    Should Apple add WMA suppot on the iPod?

    No way should Apple support WMA. Its proprietary. But, they should support Ogg Vorbis. Its open and free of any licensing fees. Plus it sounds better than any of them in my opinion at higher bitrates.
