I went to the Apple Store today to get my iPhone 4 replaced due to a yellow screen issue. I showed it to a employee at the Genius Bar. I had a password set and forgot to unlock it for her. The lady didn't ask me for my password, she just simply typed in a 4 digit number. The number went "95??" I didn't see the last two digits. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Anyone want to try and figure out what the passcode is

Let's face it, Microsoft can't compete.
See, here's the problem.
They really can't compete. Microsoft's best guys are on the XBox project.
They are screwing up ACROSS THE BOARD.
- Their newest release of Exchange is a CRASH Nightmare.
- IIS 6.0 can be crashed with a Large Sql Query to a DataGrid.
- Their development staff couldn't handle "Checked Exceptions".
( Too lazy for Error Handling? )
- So, with something as Complex as Virtual Pc,
you have to wonder, how deep is the bench?
Not Deep Enough.
Microsoft, soon to be the: "Microsoft Game Company".
In games they're fairly competent.

Yup.

I prefer artwork of higher quality than that which iTunes automatically downloads. I recommend adding artwork manually, using sites such as Album Art Exchange (http://www.albumartexchange.com/covers.php), as well as searching with Google. Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes (http://dougscripts.com/itunes/) is a great resource for managing your iTunes tags and files, and has a script to quickly identify which tracks lack artwork: Tracks Without Artwork to Playlist v3.3 (http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=trackswithoutartwork)

I went to the 3G launch at cpw at teesside park. Queue was about 20/30 people at 7am. It opened at 8. If you know it it went from cpw down to brantano. Sold out of 16gbs about half way through the queue.
I think the town centres will be less popular and should be a better bet if you really want a particular model. Plus there's more shops - I think mbro still has two o2's and a cpw?
I hope it's easier this time as I don't fancy another early start. Hopefully other carriers will have it on thursday too to dilute the queues

Are these iTunes Music Store AACs (protected) or ones you did? If they're protected you have to burn them to an audio CD and then rip them as mp3. I don't know of any other way. If they're AACs you encoded, then whatever you used (Quicktime I would assume) should be able to convert them. iTunes will do it, but you said you wanted to use Windows so I'm not sure.
Hmm...now I re-read your post and wonder. Why do you have to convert them to get them off the iPod? There are utilities that will transfer them (at least a dozen for Mac, must be some Windows as well). Or did I misunderstand something?

Wow, somebody knows Pete Rocks "TROY" on this forum?
Im in shock lol.
Very disappointed that Apple took Kanye off the webcast though. It was THEM who invited him to perform, and they must have known that most of his songs have some swear words in them. I think the Kanye tie up was just right though - I thought Apple was a company that liked to be bold? The old rock/pop star **** (U2, Madonna etc) is tired and bland. Kanye is now. He is far from my favourite Hiphop artist, but dude is doing what Hiphop used to do - put blacks on the political map. As much as people may shun that idea, he HAS got people talking about what is a very real issue to those in the black community - that the Government doesnt give a **** about them. If action is taken on it at any level, then Kanyes purpose was justified.

Hey all, I currently live in Japan, and would like to get some experiences working at Apple. I haven't decided which floor I would like to work at, but it will most likely be the Genius Bar.
Now, to get in to my main point, is it possible to work at the Apple Store under the age of 18? I have no idea about the labor laws, work permit, and things like that, but I just to make sure. I saw on other thread that in state of Nevada, a person should be above the age of 16 to get a job.
BTW, I'm 17 currently.
Directly from the Labor Standards Laws:
(Minimum Age)
Article 56. An employer shall not employ children
until the first 31st of March following their having fully
reached the age of 15 years.
2. Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding
paragraph, outside of school hours, children above 13 full
years of age maybe employed in occupations in enterprises
other than those listed in items 1 through 5 of Annexed
Table No. 1, and which involve light labor that is not
harmful to the health and welfare of the children, with the
permission of the administrative office. The same shall
apply to children under 13 full years of age employed in
motion picture production and theatrical performance
enterprises.

OK... I am not sure if it needs to get sent out...
You're not sure as in "It doesn't need a repair, because its still fully functional" or "I'm not sure they're going to sent it out to get it fixed"
Really though. These are more of an annoyance than actual problems.
I've actually had these issues for a while, but I finnaly have a whole week off, I got to go back to school on the 3rd...

Oddly, it isn't even in the Finder preferences. Just totally gone! I haven't deleted the Finder plist file though, so I will try that next. Of course, it's a preview so things like this are to be expected ;)
This happened to me on the first developer release on my 2010 6-Core Mac Pro. Oddly AirDrop worked/showed on our 2009 iMac. I filed a bug report and was informed AirDrop is still be worked out on various Broadcom AirPort Extreme WiFi cards. Developer Preview 2 now lists AirDrop on both our Mac's but I only got it working once, now neither system notices the other.
All part of the beta fun (although I wish Apple would release more beta's and not "Developer Previews" as they did with previous OS X releases)

The Centris 660av was one of the shortest-lived Apple models, and I would guess it was one of the rarest. It was only in production for two months before it was replaced with the almost-identical Quadra 660av (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_Quadra_660AV). (The Centris name had been introduced as a "low end" Quadra with the Centris 610, but after the 660av came out, they merged the brands for simplification purposes.)
I have what is, last time I checked, a working Centris 660av. Well, the hard drive is gone, but it has an external SCSI drive that boots it. That drive could probably be put inside.
I am in the process of moving, and really need to down-size my stuff. The Centris has no use to me (it's 25 MHz... yes Mega), but I love the kitschiness of how rare it was.
I saw one go on eBay for $10. Hardly a fitting end for such a cool Mac (a pizza box, as these models were called). Can anyone help me find a better home for it?

Very early CD burners were CD-R only and didn't support CD-RW. Either that is the case with yours, or your Memorex media is in some way not compatible with older CD-RW drives.

This is a very 'real' issue. If broadband uptake and speeds continue to rise, and consumer acceptance of digital media increases, than higher quality content will be more readily demanded and easier to supply. However, if quality enhancements are too quick, and a consumer must repurchase his or her entire collection (or favourite parts of) too regularly than disatisfaction is felt. It is felt in the frustration of having to spend more time and money re-downloading something that a consumer perceives he or she already owns.
I agree with this statement entirely. While I didn't really expect them to give us free upgrades, I wish they would. What's going to happen when in 6 months they start offering hi-def to go with the iTV? Do they really expect people to buy things three times? If they aren't going to at least offer a discount now, then why should I even buy from their store? Ultimately they never should have released stuff at that bad resolution in the first place. I guess it's just shame on those of us who bought stuff at the low resolution. I don't think it's asking too much for them to offer updates or discounts on already purchased content.

I had to hit the restore button, then it finally showed that there was the 1.2 update. all is well for me now, search functions, games, and downloading a movie now to test.
- the games look incredible, mini-golf is really addicting!
I can find everything except the advanced search function. Can you find that on your old 5G iPod? I can't for the life of me.
(Otherwise, I see all the functions -- games work, the quick scrolling where the big letter is displayed works, haven't tried gapless playback though but I'm assuming that works.)

Just curious why you chose Best Buy over the Apple Store?
I am choosing BB because I have some Reward Zone certificates that I am going to use towards the purchase, plus the RW points will go towards getting another cert to use in the future.

This is in line with the iPhone life cycle.
2007 - iPhone (the Apple Beta)
2008 - iPhone 3G - Complete Redesign (or, IMHO, the "real" launch)
2009 - iPhone 3GS - Modest update
2010 - iPhone 4 - Complete redesign
2011 - iPhone 4.5 - Modest update
2012 - iPhone 5 - Complete redesign. (or at least, significant overhaul.)
iPad, iPod Touch & iPod Nano follow this curve. I feel like we can expect a revolutionary new device every 2 years, and a modest upgrade in between.
Eh, at least going by what's under the hood, the 3GS was a more significant upgrade than the 3G. Apparently apple agrees too (iPhone 2G being iPhone 1,1; iPhone 3G being iPhone 1,2; iPhone 3GS being iPhone 2,1). The 3G's CPU, GPU, and RAM were identical to the 2G. Only real addition was the 3G radio (with GPS).
