I'm going to do some traveling in the next few weeks and purchased the World Travel Adapter Kit from Apple for my iPad and iPod Touch. I also intend to take my Galaxy Tab 7 plus and I'm trying to keep down my cable/adapter mess. The adapter kit is listed as 5.1v and 2.1 amps. The adapter for...

What can't I access for media in Canada due to licensing agreements between television networks? Is it enough to make the purchase of an Apple TV unit a disappointment?

I've got a coworker's daughter who has had her PC infected with one of those ever so freakin' lovely fake AV programs. I intend to do a rescue on her system (photos, music, etc) then reformat. What I intend to do is use a Mac Mini for a temporary backup then recopying her files back to the...

I don't recall seeing a thread specific to this (though there has been the iPhone/Touch thread), so I thought I'd put a few out there: VNC Lite Zap2it (tv schedules) TouchPad (iphone/touch/ipad) Kindle Stanza (nice recent update for ipad) iBooks (once books become available in Canada)...

http://l5remote.com/ I think this looks pretty interesting and useful. Though I only have 2 remotes (tv and old vcr) my mother has at least 5 remotes going and she keeps misplacing them (and I can never find the right one when I'm at the house). Shipping looks to be the end of this month...

I did a bit of a google search on this and really couldn't find much information. Since the weekend, when I reorganized my desk and the resetup my Mini, I've been getting this high pitched sound coming from the machine. Has anyone else experienced this? Should I be contacting Apple and...

I'm thinking of going from my 8 gig first gen to a 64 gig 3rd gen. Can I backup my 8 gig then put that image on the 64 gig without issue?

I've been playing at being an internet DJ for some years now and using SAM2 under XP to do my broadcasting. I've since gone to a Mac Mini here and been running VM Fusion and experiencing some recent issues (crackle in my end of the audio, hesitations in the audio) and, after a Windows update...

We've had several issues with the Macbook since she purchased it this past summer: 1. The touchpad crapped out. Apple replaced the unit within 24 hours. (There were issues with backup and such which they wouldn't do - which cost me the full install of software but also a a VM with fusion.)...

So picked up a new mac mini yesterday and I'm bootcamping it today (I have a few pieces of software I have not yet found the equivalent of for the mac). The mini appears to support wireless b/g/n and will connect to my wireless g with no issues. Where I end up having issues is that the XP...

So to speak that is. I was a little ticked at the outset with the purchase as, 3 months later, they went to the 2nd gen with a price drop. Now I'm a bit ticked as it seems there is no o/s update for the unit? Has Apple abandoned support on this unit?

I'm not sure how to explain this and it's driving me crazy. I've got several computers and my LAN, all XP Home based except the Mac. I've networked the machines together for basic file sharing (no mapped drives). All machines, except my main machine, can see each other just fine. The main...

I've been running a nasty setup here and need to get my storage centralized. I'm running 3 systems with storage ranging from 750 gig to 1.2 Tb between them. Systems range from as little as 2 drives to 7 drives (250 gig to 500 gig drives) giving me an overall storage of around 3 Tb. Total...

Alright, finally having a trying time here. I've hooked up my asus eee 1000ha to my Samsnung LN32a450c1d 32" LCD tv. I'm hooking up through the vga only (no dongle). When cloning the display I get full width image on the tv but proportionally out. When going 4:3 it displays centered up...

Has any got any experience with this motherboard? http://www.logicsupply.com/products/nx15000g I'm looking at doing a stealth mod and this seems to fit what I want to do - essentially an HTPC.

I grabbed an Addvision ASL-7012 (thats the number from the pc board) from a pawnshop thinking it would make an interesting addon for a project. Problem is it requires the remote to actually work and does not have a manual on/off switch. This may be a rebranded Nesa unit but I'm not totally...

I've built my first server farm, nothing overly special just some old machines I've salvaged (emachine w/ celly 366, abit LX6s w/ p2-233 and p2-333), and I'm looking at some system to control these machines from my primary machine. It has been suggested that I use DNC Server but I'm rather...

So I've decided I hate life but, after about a day, I finally got xp home and 98se to see each other on the network. Now, the problem is that the 98 box can't use the internet as Zonealarm (personal) doesn't permit ICS. Soooooooooo . . . I figured I'd try out Remote Desktop but can't get them...

I'm not sure I understand the purpose behind this. An unlapped or "rough" surface would provide more surface area for heat disipation (and assuming you are using some kind of thermal paste/grease/silver) for heat transmission between the cpu and the block. Could someone clarify this for me...

I know 98 was rather forgiving but how is xp? I want to swap out my asus a7n266-vm with an msi km4m-v and would like to know if I have to reinstall xp (a long assed process to reinstall it and all my software) or can I get away with just installing new drivers?

A friend of mine was listening to me rant about case mods one day not so long ago (and had her view the forums here for about 1-1/2 hrs as well) when I happened to mention an old radio back at my mother's house that I've been trying to find. Needless to say, I never did find that radio but she...

One of the first mods I did was a "retro" and refitted an Asus A7N266-VM into a Tandy 1000TX base. (this mod was originally done september of 2002). (above: My original still working Tandy 1000a w/ original monitor) I blew up the 80 buck psu cuz of poor air circulation but, oddly...
