  • Thanks for the good info. I found a used ATA/66 for the front bay so that would work for now. BTW, I went to xlr8yourmac but they aren't allowing any new people to register on their forums so I can't ask the question there. Most of the info is fo…

  • It should be right under either Music Store or Purchased Music and before you get to the listings of all the playlists. There's a grey triangle next to where if you click on it, all the music stored on the iPod will show up. You might have it conf…

  • Thanks nihat_y. I remember when I updated from 10.2.4 to 2.5 using the smaller serial updater and lots of little annoying things started happening like hanging when trying to shut down, pulldown menus not staying rolled down when I unclicked the mo…

  • My retail box is out in the storage shed but I think the retail box has a CD and an activation key code that you type in when registering your membership. The key code is what is important. If you already have a membership, I don't know if it will…

  • Maybe I'm mistaken but I thought you could download a song in either MP3 or AAC. Maybe I've been reading too many posts about it and got confused. It just means that I can play the songs on my computer or my iPod but not on the CD player in th…
    in AAC at 128 whether you want it or not? Comment by edinla43 April 2003
  • I shut down the computer and restarted it and the problem went away. It must be something that gets honked up over time that only a restart will cure.

  • I'm using the Apple Pro mouse that came with the computer. After I click on the menu bar about 20 times, it will finally stay pulled down like it's supposed to.

  • Thanks Frosty and Magic Fingers. I ended up going with the USBoverdrive. It's just what I was looking for and now my mouse is happy. Thanks again. I'm really beginning to love this Mac.

  • Thanks for all the info. I think partitioning isn't something I'll need.
    in Partitioning a hard drive - newbie Q Comment by edinla43 April 2003
  • Thanks for the suggestions. I guess I've just been a PC user for too long, always having to uninstall older versions first or having them freeze because I didn't install something else that it needed first or finding out I'm missing some .dll file …

  • Brad, Thanks for the replies. Being a PC user, I'm used to all the hassles of PC ownership and having to run Norton Win Doctor on a weekly basis to keep from getting the blue screen of death. So, hopefully by this next weekend, I'll be up and r…

  • So if this NVidia card is problematic, how hard is it to change it out when an ATI Radeon card comes along? Is it major surgery? Am I going to have to ship it off to Apple? I'm kinda leery about plunking down $2k for a new computer that has video…
