  • Firefoxy http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/24768 makes Firefox right at home on the Mac (well almost...) I've dumped Safari for Firefox already. In fact, also dumped Mail.app for Thunderbird at nearly the same time. The Apple p…

  • Quote: Originally posted by Vox Barbara Perhaps the Terminal tells you more. Open Terminal, type in: "hostinfo" push enter. Thanks for that. Hostinfo gave me 7450 on a 550MHz PowerBook as well as on a 1GHz iBook. Is the 7450 designation…
  • Don't count on it... Try iView Media Pro instead (the regular version doesn't support RAW). You can get fairly substantial educational discounts if you asked. I got 50% discount and I'm studying in Australia.

  • Quote: Originally posted by m01ety Thanks for the tip, but I'm pretty sure you're mixing the two up. Isn't Best Performance faster because it's Fixed Bit Rate? I remember thinking the same when I found out too. That's why I said that the names…
  • Sorry, can't help you there with regards to analog/digital imports... Quote: Originally posted by m01ety Question 2: What is the difference between the "Best Quality" and "Best Performance" setting? When Best Quality is chosen, a little ove…
  • You might want to check out http://www.alfanet.it/squared5/mpegstreamclip.html It's totally free and you can convert your clips to DV, which iMovie recognizes fine...
  • I sampled a few recently. The one that worked best for me is disclabel from http://www.smileonmymac.com/

  • Quote: Originally posted by Galen Is this a hardware or a software issue? My guess is software, but only over certain hardware. It seems to work properly on my friend's TiBook with similar software configurations...
  • Quote: Originally posted by Splinemodel Three colors. Three bytes. Three histograms. OK. I can see that, but that still doesn't quite explain how does AWB (in theory) removes colorcasts...
  • Thanks for trying. Any luck finding more information? I'm wondering because sometimes iPhoto/Photoshop auto enhance or auto color functions can significantly improve the quality of photos with strong color casts in them. Other times, it just make…
  • This is certainly weird. I've never seen something like this before. What DVD are you trying to play? Does this happen with all DVDs or only some?
  • How are you getting onto full screen. Try pressing "command zero". What are you actually getting?
  • Hmm... So, it's not only my problem... I thought there was something wrong with my setup... My headphones are not great, it is dirt cheap in fact. I plugged the headphones in for the first time and assumed that the speakers were muted. Some time …
  • Quote: Originally posted by ipodandimac ya this is definitly the dumbest piece of engineering on the G5. You mean this is normal?
  • Quote: Originally posted by applenut i would at least like to see the ability to rename files in the open/save dialog. I second that!
  • But isn't that what Apple is all about? Small subtle changes that are hardly noticeable, but as a whole make a better product! I'd welcome a new sound!
  • What costique said. Within disk utility, select the *DRIVE* (which should currently have two *VOLUMES* indented from it). Then select the Partition tab, and choose the volume scheme with only one partition and hit partition. This should repartition …
