Well, it's a time bug... if you switch back your system's clock to the serial will work.
Tried it before. Doesn't solve anything.

I have an Apple BT mouse and it really is great. The response time is very good and I've gotten use to the one button over two. Actually, I've gotten more use to keyboard commands that take place of the right click in many cases.
I looked at the Bluetake 500 that you have McGarry...looks pretty good...how much?

I haven't seen any mini apple stores at the Best Buy in West Ashley or North Charleston. Have they added it since I last went in one?
Actually we do have a Saks 5th Avenue on King St.
I don't know if BB's in Charleston have been remodeled (moved from there 3.5 yrs ago :( ). They just finished the remodeling here in Savannah, and I have to say it is pretty nice. Just like a mini-Apple store (and I mean mini). Very clean and Apple-like. It oughtta be rocking this holiday season *buys more AAPL*.

I recent had to make this same decision......
In my case, I had to chose between a Quicksilver 733 that CompUSA had for $999 (including 2 year warranty) or one of the new ones (in my case, probably the dual 867) for $1699.
I went with the Quicksilver, and with the money I saved from the new ones...I've replaced the stock hard drive with 2 WD Special Edition drives, maxed out the RAM at 1.5GB, and will add a DVD-R drive. With the upgrades, I've still spent less than $1699.
I don't regret my choice at all....I realize "official" benchmarks will show my machine is slower than the new models, however, after having played with them in the store, my eyes can't tell any difference. Yes, for Photoshop and iMovie, the new ones would probably save me some time, but the Quicksilver will hold me over nicely until there is a "major" upgrade.
I'll be content to keep this until Apple goes with the new IBM chip, which seems to be able to offer a significant performance boost. Until then, I'll have a drink and wait :)

I doubt that a Canadian iPhone is big enough news to make the Keynote, but it could happen quietly today or some time later this month, if Apple has persuaded Rogers to compromise on data plan rates.

Hi
Quick question. i recently bought a macmini to act as a media centre (more than happy). My Father in Law is impressed with set up and wants the same BUT he wants more capacity on the HDD. He has seen a refurb mini server with plenty of HDD space which he is tempted by but keeps asking me what the downside to having one of these over the standard version will be. He isnt fussed for the DVD drive as all his files are downloaded.
Can anyone quickly give reasons why he should/shouldnt go for this? He will not be usingit as a server but only to get the extra specs.
Hope someone can help or point me to where I can get the info on the difference.

People who want an iPhone will buy an iPhone.
My point was - with either rumored scenario, it seems that 3GS owners looking for a upgrade are going to deal with more buyers remorse than normal.
Buying something 6+ months before the new version gets released is normally not an issue, so if a new iPhone comes out in Sept, I could reasonably get an iPhone 4 now and not be a "generation behind" so quickly. But if I were to get one now (expecting a Sept launch) and the new one comes out in June, that'll suck. But waiting till June just to find out the new one will be in Sept would also suck... There doesn't seem to be a way to "win" with this update...
The line about looking elsewhere comes from my phone seemingly deteriorating in front of my eyes and the need for an upgrade not being satisfied by Apple. I'm not a blind fanboy that HAS to stick with an iPhone - it's just been the best phone I've used for the past 4 years (user since 2G). But with this shift in the timeline, the "new phone every 2 years" turned into a "new phone every 28-30 months"? That's too long. My phone probably wont last another 6 months...

Service One, a Spartanburg based Apple Reseller, will be hosting a Leopard Launch Party starting at 6pm on Friday. They will have Free refreshments as well as onsite Leopard demos! Everyone who purchases a copy will receive a free gift. Service One is located at 2932 Reidville Rd., Spartanburg, SC. The phone is 864-576-5032.
its a shame there isnt a reseller/retail store here in charleston aka chucktown.... in the sea of retailers on king street, apple is nowhere to be found.

"Top News: Steve Jobs Taking Leave of Absence"
My apologies if someone has already posted this, but I'm getting increasingly irritated by this new 'feature' on the main page.
When something was important (like his leave of absence or a countdown to an event), that space was used for that purpose and removed when it was no longer relevant.
Now, you have a permanent space for it and it's almost like crying wolf. When something important really needs to go there, most people will likely ignore it because you've had the same "Top News" there for weeks.
I could go on, but I think you got my point. Leave good enough alone until a true redesign.
Thanks,
theheadguy

This doesn't sound like an error from WebView itself, but an "error" page that's being served from the web application you're trying to access. Try spoofing the user agent.
BTW WebView always uses Safari's WebKit engine regardless of your default browser. That is if you make Firefox your default browser, your program wouldn't start embedding Firefox into your window.

Hey,
I have 600 GB Apple Lossless songs, which I would like to play in my Itunes library along with the other AAC and Mp3 songs I have there also.
Problem is when I need to have some of my lossless songs on my Iphone player, I need to convert them into AAC format so they take up less space - but is it possible to have the same songs in two fomats in iTunes and how can I make a system like Sonos see this :confused:

I purchased a 2010 8-core Mac Pro last year. It still has the original 6Gb of RAM, which I want to upgrade now.
OWC's performance tests (http://eshop.macsales.com/Reviews/Framework.cfm?page=/Benchmarks/CS5BenchmarkPage-MacProNehalem.html) show a drastic improvement with 12Gb, and rather minimal boost after that. But this is one test and does not necessarily reflect real life.
I do mostly Photoshop work. Some 3D modeling and rendering, and some video editing (Final Cut Express, After Effect).
I'm leaning towards getting 24Gb (4Gb x 6) or 32Gb (4Gb x 8). How much does installing RAM in 3's affect the Macs in real life?

One can only speculate. Best guess IMO would be end somewhere b/w May - June alongside Lion OSX.

Tried searching but can't find a solution. I have a XP bootcamp partition and recently installed a trial version of Parallels. Now upon startup if I hold ctrl then I get an option to boot from the XP partition. When I select it then the screen goes black and it will not boot. I have no problem booting to OSX and running apps from the XP partition with Parallels.
Any suggestions?

Hi there,
Okay I bought some iPhones a while back to sell on eBay. Turns out the profit margins are much lower now and there's so much fraud out there on the buyer side (people buy then do chargebacks) that I just want to get my money back on these, not really interested in making a profit. I don't want to deal with eBay anymore.
So I have two of each - 2 16gb iPhones and 2 8gb iPhones. They are both unlocked and still in their shrinkwrapping. I am able to peel just a portion of the shrinkwrap away from the dock connector, unlock them, and then replace it so these things look as if you were to have just opened it at the Apple store.
You can see my post count here and see that I have been a MR Forums member for a very long time. Also, please view feedback under the ebay account "hungarianhc."
I usually include the shipping price, but i'll ship anywhere that you have a paypal verified address. If you don't have a paypal address, i'm willing to accept a money order as well. I just want to get these phones off my hands and not lose any money! I'll attach a pic of one of them. Thanks! PM me if you're interested. And yes... I'd really love to sell ALL of them in one big bundle so that will get priority! Happy to ship them individually as well.

Hi
I'm trying to learn how NSFileManger works and I want to test out some methods with files that i have created. Let say the file name is called "testFile". Now the question is where do i put the file, in which folder? I tried the fileExistsAtPath method and it keeps giving me the file does not exist message. By the way, im using Xcode 4
Thank you for your precious time.
Hint: To do anything with a file, most operating system functions will want the complete path. That might be something like "/Users/freeme007/testFile" or "/Users/freeme007/Documents/testFile".
I'd have a look at the methods NSHomeDirectory and stringByAppendingPathComponent. They might come handy. And it would be very, very useful if you can figure out how to find their documentation.
