iTunes Plus is not an account upgrade. It refers to the quality of the music being purchased. Normal iTunes songs (with DRM) are 128kbps AAC files. iTunes Plus songs are 256kbps AAC without DRM. Are you talking about upgrading your DRMed files to iT…

When the next OS comes out, you might be looking at a new laptop. It's usually two years between OS upgrades. AppleCare: YES. One repair and the relatively small price for the plan is worth it.

If you really want to speed up your loading times in Safari, look no further: OpenDNS.

Open up System Profiler. It will tell you the manufacturer names for most of them.

How old are you? 5?

In iTunes preferences, go to Advanced and uncheck the "Copy files to iTunes Music folder..." option. You then need to copy your movie files onto your external drive, then drag those files into iTunes.

US Macbooks are also manufactured and shipped directly from China. At least mine was. It's definitely got to be software related because my early 2006 2.0Ghz Macbook has been having these problems off and on recently.

For that problem ^^^, use a social bookmarking system, or, if you use Firefox, try out Foxmarks. I unfortunately don't use Firefox anymore, but it was great when I did use it. You can access your bookmarks from anywhere with a username and password.

If you don't use Photoshop, that really doesn't matter all that much. My suggestion is to not let iTunes sort your files if you already have them organized. If you don't have them organized, iTunes' sorting is fine. For iPhoto, I recommend letting i…

Don't let iTunes organize it for you if you already have it organized. If you have any compilations or soundtracks with different artists (and don't have the compilation option ticked for those files), iTunes will have a separate folder for each one…

Actually, there is. Try MacDrive.

WhatSize is a great tool for finding out what's taking up so much space on your HD. It uses a hierarchal interface so you can narrow it down to certain folders. It says it's shareware, but that's only if you want some additional functionality.

SafariStand. You'll have to update SIMBL though.

I built a 320GB Seagate firewire drive with an Icy Dock enclosure from Newegg for about $160 with shipping. Of course the enclosure was expensive ($60), but it's well worth it. It has two FireWire 400 ports and one FireWire 800 port, plus a USB2 por…

Try calibrating your battery. If you didn't read the manual before you started using your Macbook, I suggest you do so. It contains a lot of information about maintenance.

Your account balance shouldn't be limited to one computer. You put money into your iTunes account and it should be accessible on any computer you authorize. Try authorizing the other computer.
