  • then they should release a PROMPT software update to open up to other brands if they do that... or just get out of the server / enterprise business. They have caught fire the last year or so with desktops / laptops in business & the iPhone i…
    in Mac Pro looks like a bargain vs Dell's Nehalem workstation Comment by kmac1036 April 2009
  • price drop? only if you buy refurb or find another discount of some sort, like an employee purchase program thru apple or somone like macmall has a sale. speed bump? unlikely, it's only been out a month or so. there won't be any updates before f…
    in Mac Book Pricing/Specs Comment by kmac1036 April 2009
  • but from what I understand is that even in Vista, the Mac Pro doesn't do a true SLi. If it has to be SLi, the you will have to set up a traditional PC for that.

  • I'd put it back the way it was where you got the audio, think there's a slider bar in the aggregate builder or garage band to up the level on that 1 mic. think the snowball is coming stronger because you have 2 people in the same room (?) speaki…

  • you can do this with OS X in the Disk Utility without any additional hardware. more of a software solution tho, but I've decent luck with doing Mirror RAID 1s in towers. more here from me & others: http://forums.appleinsider.com/showt…
    in Advice on RAID card for 2008 Mac Pro Comment by kmac1036 April 2009
  • that's the thing with apple - when things go wrong, it goes completely to he|| in a handbasket, that's for sure! the new Mac Pros aren't cheap. overall, I still say the macs are better built overall, but they've had a bad run at times on parts. …

  • I talked to an apple tech on this. he told be that machines can ship with a buggy install. the first thing to do is start over, install the os from the dvd. the archive & install should be ok, but I would do a backup of the important stuff &…
    in New Macbook 2.4ghz... laggy? Comment by kmac1036 April 2009
  • just about any of them work with 10.4 & 10.5. The light scribe software is harder to come by, but lacie has a free copy of that posted on their support pg. pretty hard anymore to find one that doesn't work with os x. but if you do, you c…
    in Dvd burner that will work with mac Comment by kmac1036 April 2009
  • are you doing a pdf or html email msg? under the Text menu, there's an item for Hyperlinks & bookmarks... use that to set the links on text, if you haven't already. or you can just simply write the email with the link. a lot of place…
    in generate e-flyer with link Comment by kmac1036 April 2009
  • I was refering to the leads that snake up thru the body & hinge as they move everytime you close / open the screen. but if it's not working well in another mac, then likely looking at needing the card like you said. quickertek makes them esp…
    in Wireless airport card very weak Comment by kmac1036 April 2009
  • it's do-able, but it's getting software at this point that will run on the classic os. you might also need a preamp to up the audio level to line level. most turn tables only put out phono level, which is higher than mic level, but still lower than …
    in Powermac 7600/120-good for Audio dubs? Comment by kmac1036 March 2009
  • what format is it? if i put in a link & generate a pdf, it hyperlinks it automatically. but you can also put in text like "apple" & have it link to www.apple.com when you export tho, make sure when the settings screen pops up, that …
    in generate e-flyer with link Comment by kmac1036 March 2009
  • what OS & how long since it was installed? ever had the machine apart for service? one of the antennas may have broken loose, so that could explain the weak signal.
    in Wireless airport card very weak Comment by kmac1036 March 2009
  • yeah, that IS the problem! You set the RAM setting way too high. do 70% MAX, 85 is still too high. it gives you an optimal range on that panel, I follow it. because if you set it to 80 or 100%, you are not giving RAM to the OS or other apps, so i…

  • are you using a hub? does it do the same thing if you plug directly into the macbook?
    in waking external monitor.... Comment by kmac1036 March 2009
  • i think something might be goofed up with the setup or the cs4 software. how big are the files? check your Preferences panel in PS & see what your settings are. You shouldn't use more than 70% of the available RAM. I've opened files that were…
    in New Apple Raid Card Comment by kmac1036 March 2009
  • I would try installing OS X on an external drive. set up a completely new acct - different names than you use now - & try it. if you can't replicate, then what you can do is use the migration utility, import your stuff from the PB. boot from th…
    in 12" Powerbook trackpad issues...?? Comment by kmac1036 March 2009
  • you are SOOO close on this one: you have to set them up in GB 3 as a MONO rec device, not stereo. Are you using headsets? they are stereo headphones with mono mics. try that!

  • I have that option in iTunes 8.1 with the new shuffle. it gives me a button to convert on the fly... I'm not sure if it works with other ipods or not. haven't seen it with my 80gb classic... BUT what you could do is this: set the rip settings in…
