Hey guys, I just got a call from my sister. She had called me a couple weeks ago telling me that her iPhone 3g had been flashing a warning when it comes out of sleep mode. The warning was about an accessory not compatible with the iPhone. I told her to reset it and blah blah, and if that didn't...

ive got a dual 2.0 G5 powermac that i love, sans one problem... there arent enough usb ports. does anyone know if there are any open usb headers on the mother board that i could plug one of those 4 port pci slot plates into to get extra usb slots?

I have my aunt's lappy, and it is in serious need of a reformat. She has some software on it that I need to save, but having recently moved, she doesn't know where the CD's and stuff are. Is there any way to read the keys from the software so I can write them down for the reinstall? I have the...

Hey guys, I am wanting to make a simple image map that changes the image when you mouse over and on the down click. I know that this can be done easily in Dreamweaver, as I have done it before, but I no longer have access to Dreamweaver. I am using my Mac, and have tried a ton of different...

hey guys. sorry if i put this in the wrong place, but this is the place i thought it would go best. i didnt do this in photoshop, i used pixelmator, which is a simplified, easy to use program for osx similar to photoshop. anyway... heres the scoop. a friend of mine came to korea to visit me...

I've got a retail copy of OS X 10.3 that I bought from Apple. This will work with any type of Mac, it is not the iMac version, or the iBook version, it's the all Mac version. :D I have all the discs. They are practically brand new. Only installed once. Would be great for an updating an older...

heres a stupid question i should know, but dont since i have never had the opportunity to upgrade any of my mac os's in the past. (ive only owned macs with 10.4) if you install 10.5, can you stick the 10.4 disks in and install the ilife suite off of them? or will you have to go buy a stand...

so, since leopard is coming out in a few days, boot camp 10.4 is going to expire. this page at apple says: but what exactly does this mean? my situation is this, i am working in a mac unfriendly environment. everything here is windows based (fascistly so). even the printer they have does not...

I did a quick search, and saw no thread like this in the Apple forum, so I thought I would start one. The idea is simple, if you have a peripheral for your Mac that you love, post it here so others can discover them. I'm talking anything from Mice to Monitors, Keyboards to Printers, Cams to TV...

im looking to pick up a good, reliable, easy to use printer for my parents to use. i need to get them something with solid drivers that works without a lot of fuss. i want color printing of good quality. scanning and other whiz-bang features are not needed, but i wont turn down a good solid...

Have any of you heard much about, or personally used MCE Mobilestor Performance drives, particularly in a Mac? I have been thinking about upgrading the stock drive in my black Macbook with a 250 gig drive by MCE. I compared the specs, and the Performance drive by MCE seems to be a better drive...

So, I'm wanting to add a wireless setup in my apartment. I have been looking at a few, but am left wanting more. I am currently living in South Korea, so I don't really know how that will affect the outcome of my venture. I assume that I can get most of anything computer related, but I could be...

I'm thinking about picking up a wireless router to use with my Macbook, and I got a couple questions. First, some background. I am currently living in South Korea. I brought my Macbook with me, and I have iNet in my apartment. The apartment is small, very small, so it should be well blanketed...

my sister has decided to upgrade the ram in her powerbook. she asked me where to go and find it. i have never priced ram for a powerbook (as i dont own one cause im too poor right now), so i was wondering if you guys would throw me out your most reliable and cheapest places to pick up ram for a...

I'm running FireFox on OSX, and I want to remap the FireFox keystroke for "back" to be the big delete key. Is there a way to do this? I looked at the config file and saw nothing that I though would be of use. Can you even distinguish between the big "delete" key and the little "del" key? I want...

We've got an XRaid here at work (3.5 terabytes ) that we use for video storage. We work directly off of it on dual processor G5's through a program called FiberShare. Recently, the raid has become quite fragmented. So much to the point that DiskWarrior says it can't do anything about it. I...

my girlfriend called me yesterday asking me how to get a .avi to play. (ox 10.3.7 and latest free quicktime) quicktime says that it can't play it and no software is found on the servers. i walked her through installing wmp, but still didn't work. i rarely ever encounter files in .avi format, so...

HELP! This is a very stupid question, but I am looking for a "timeline" if you will, and can't find what I'm looking for. This is no suprise as I suck at the Internet. Anyway, I'm wondering if there is a Web-site that will show all the models of Apple computers and their specs, so like if I...

I am trying to install Debian on an AMD 800 machine, and it keeps getting hung up. I put in the CD 1, all of which I downloaded and burned, and I set up a main bootable partition and a swap partition (which I'm not 100% sure I did right, but hey, I'm learning) and set up the network interface...

Hey guys, I am using a Mac keyboard on my windows machine. It works great and all, and I have remapped the f13 - f15 keys to print screen, scroll lock and pause/break, and the volume keys work great, but I am hoping to get the eject key to eject my DVD drive. Any of you have any ideas on how to...

Does anyone know of a way I can reduce the number of clicks when I eject my flash drive? I have to click like 5 times before I can unplug the stupid thing. Now I know I have sat at a machine where I only had to click twice to do the same thing. I think it is retarded to have to click so many...

I have recently installed OSX on a iMac DV 400. I set the screen size to 1024x768, and if the Mac is powered down for around 15-20 minutes or more, when it boots back up the screen size has expanded so that a good portion of the dock is off the bottom of the screen. The little black triangle...

The little battery in my iMac seems to be dead. Everytime I turn it off, and unplug it, the clock resets. Where can I get one of these? This is a G3 iMac 400 DV, so I'm not worried about warranties, besides IF id did have any warranty left, I voided it last night when I installed a 120 gig...

Hey guys. I'm installing OS X on an older G3 iMac for my girlfriend for Christmas. I upgraded the hard drive, and am looking to do the RAM as well. Things are going well, but I have found 2 annoying problems so far. I wanna know if there is a way to fix/bypass either of them. First, I found...

Ok, I am by know means a "guru," but I know my way around a computer fairly well. I do all the things I should, at least as far as I know. Well, I have been going to the chiropractor for about a year now, and they have discoverd my "knack" for computers. Every now and then I do a little work for...
