Late 2010 13" MBA. The internal display has just started flickering. This is completely absent at half-brightness (say, the way the screen dims when idle), but at full brightness it's VERY noticeable. Not affected by whether or not I'm plugged in. Just started today. No effect from sleeping, rebooting, power cycling, etc.
I'm just guessing that this means I have to drop it off at an Apple Store and wait a week, doesn't it.

What router do you have? Some routers have built in VPN server support. If not, you can try EasyVPN for windows. I found a link here:
http://www.comodo.com/home/email-security/vpn-access.php
To find the Time warner search domain name go to your router's setup page. It should have a summary page and tell you your public IP address and also the search domain. If you can't find it, PM me, I'll help you out.
I have a dlink 655 which doesn't support ddwrt or have a default vpn.
i know my public ip and the search domain seems to be socal.rr.com
I downloaded easyvpn and set it up but am having problems on where to input all this information, its sure not as easy as the mac version.
Also I'm not sure how to PM you or I would, I just made this account and am brand new to these forums, pm me and I'll gladly reply!

Sorry about late reply, crazy hours at work.
It shows that your only 22! language acrobatic funny rappers have more lyrics than the original hard core rappers?? what?
[snip]
Damn Need I go on to school you?!!! :D ;) :cool:
well i was more thinking about hip hop/rap in my own language ;) and in german it's sounds like hypocrisy singing about ghetto and the whole gangsta thing .. most are simply copying US ones
(i didn't knew a single rapper you mentioned, not interested that much, after all i'm more the rock'n'roll guy ;) so you would need a lot of cars to drag me into hiphop-school)
about age: try finding lots of (male) hiphop fans older than 20 over here... they are the exception and not the rule.. for me hiphop is still teenager music stuff simply because of the people who like it over here .. if you don't grew up with it you won't like it later

4.3 have my ipod4 screen flashing and it drain the battery fast from what i heard on iClarified?
Oh, so when you say it has bugs, you're simply repeating what you hear from others, not actually coming up with any sort of actual original thought based on personal experience? How very American of you.
LOL. Seriously. I have an iPad 2 ... no flickering or battery draining fast, you're actually the first I've heard of it.
My only "issue" with 4.3 is that it's still an iPad, and I'm getting sick of looking at this thing. I have a Xoom too and LOVE it... need to pick one or the other to go back to the store cause carrying both suck. I have a feeling the iPad is going back because I don't believe anyone's going to have a jailbreak for 4.3 in the next several weeks.

no one seems to be pointing out that they got rid of educational pricing for iPods... that's a bummer.
i think what they have essentially done is give everyone the educational discount.

Every iPhone thread leaves me amazed at how complacent Americans are in accepting terrible mobile telephony. When's the last time (in Europe) that you had a "dropped call"? I had to look up the term because it meant nothing to me. If the iPhone is going to work properly, then someone needs to give assurances that your calls will actually go through. Forget about downloading songs on the go for a moment, and consider the intended purpose of a phone. If I want to make a call, it means that I need to get through and actually end up talking to someone; not that I want to try to call someone. Don't get me wrong, I'd love an iPhone. I'm just glad I live in a country where your calls go through, and stay going until you terminate it. And what's with this paying for incoming minutes thing? The payment should be the responsibility of the person doing the calling. At least, that's how it seems to work over here.
Well, maybe things have improved since I left, but I certainly had the occasional dropped call when I lived in Britain. Its the nature of the technology.
While advocates of CDMA argue that in theory it should be more robust against dropped calls than other types of network, my worst experience was on Sprint PCS, which uses IS-95, the US CDMA standard. But I've not had any serious problems with either AT&T WS (now Cingular) or T-Mobile, certainly no more than I had with one2one or Orange.
As far as the last part goes, there are two ways to view the "who pays for the call" argument, and neither is the "wrong" one:
1. The person who decided to make the call should pay for it.
2. The person who determined the network they're going to be available on should pay for their part of the call, because their choice determined how expensive it would be.
(2) works very well if you're trying to replace your landline with a cellphone, as you're not forcing everyone, your friends, your family, etc, to pay premium rates to call you. Typical talk plans in the US include so many bundled minutes and unmetered calling periods and types that incoming calls are not a source of fear, and "my cellphone as my only phone" is a real practical proposition, which it just plain isn't in Britain.
However, (1) makes low user tariffs such as PAYG much more practical, and also means you're not in the awkward position of having to claim back minutes used by your boss, etc.
One is not superior to the other. I'd prefer the tariff I'm on to one where incoming minutes are charged at excessive rates to callers (up to 40p - 70c per minute for mobile to mobile calls in Britain, last time I looked) given my needs and circumstances, but if my phone was an emergency phone that I didn't plan to make many calls on and preferred to use pre-paid, I'd probably prefer paid-for incoming calls.

You don't check the dev team's web site for JB info?
Also, whenever Apple comes out with a new version, it voids the reminder check box. Feel free to tell it to stop reminding you.
You can check a box to have it stop reminding you, but I leave it unchecked so that it reminds me I gotta keep an eye out (basically here) for a new JB.

I remember when the originals came out. I worked for Circuit City at the time and they had a 100% return rate. (Granted we only sold 3 before I left there but still).
The originals had the WORST colors (pepto pink, diarrea, and milk) Those were the colors. There was supposedly a black one floating around but our store never got it.

You'll be lucky to get the case on over the invisableshield on the back. I know I couldn't with my Incase Slider on my 3G.. Had to peel it off. Save your money and just put one on the front.
Not sure how much, if at all, the back is scuffed up, nor do I much care since it will always be in a case.

Hi guys, so I have a 2010 13" 1.86 GHz 4 GB RAM MBA and was wondering if you think it will run Lion smoothly.
I don't really do anything intensive with my laptop. 95% of my usage consists of internet browser, Microsoft Office apps, email, calendar, HD videos and iTunes. I was just wondering if I'll get the same "smooth" performance I get now running Lion.
Thanks!

I'm surprised at you kavika.I'm surprised at your failure to detect kavika's brand of heavy-handed sarcasm.
Seriously? Even a child knows that if they have $10, a bully takes $5, but then returns $1, that the bully didn't GIVE them anything, but rather TOOK $4 instead of $5. Saying things like the government is 'giving people tax relief' is backwards thinking.Giving relief from taxes is not the same as stealing money. Without taxes, your country would not function, either for rich or poor. The money has to come from somewhere, and it makes a great deal more sense for more of it to come from those who can afford it at the expense of a few unnecessary luxuries than from those who need it to pay for their necessities. Without the infrastructure funded by taxation, only warlords would be able to keep hold of their money. Are you so keen to emulate Somalia?
And if that mobjority decides that they want to take all the wealth of a certain group of people, that's their right to do? Since they have a majority? It's pretty easy to get support from a majority of people to take other people's money and distribute it to them. It's just not moral. Your position is that individuals have zero moral, legal, or otherwise claim to the wealth that they themselves work for/earn?Needless to say, that is not his position, or anyone's. You have produced an absurd strawman argument, as is your wont.
As evidence that some rich people didn't earn their wealth, you just referenced Enron that went bankrupt, Madoff who went to prison, and the Banks who we bailed out... and would have otherwise gone bankrupt. So, essentially three examples where the free market either did or would have (without government intervention) correctly punished bad businesses. Odd choice.You seem unable to differentiate between bad businesses and the huge bonuses and salaries paid by them.
Hardly. All I'm trying to do is better understand your position.No, you are not. You are trying to utterly mischaracterise his position. Please don't be so transparently disingenuous. You cannot possibly be so stupid as to think that is anybody's real position.

so i know everyone always says that apple cant actually tell that you jailbreak you phone if you just restore it, but is this actually true?
i want to know because my home button has been finicky (it sometimes doesnt work), and since I have a warranty i want to make sure that apple will still service the phone if it dies completely.
now i know all of the crazy super pro-jailbreak people will come and be like "no there is absolutely no way that they will be able to tell of course blah blah blah" but does anyone actually know this for certain (proof?)
it seems like they would be able to check some log or something and it will look like you have not used your phone for like a month or however long you had it jailbroken and they will figure it out. or it seems like they would have some other way to detect this. they are apple and they are crazy opposed to jailbreaking so are you completly sure that there is no way they can tell? i really want to jailbreak because it is awesome but i bought the warranty and since my home button might break i want to make sure it will still be covered.

Hi All,
I thought that I would post this and let you know how I formatted my new 1TB external for both HFS+ and NTFS. It had been a few years since I had done that so I checked the internet and got an array of contrary and convoluted information. But, this is what worked for me.
Pretty simple and straightforward.
In Mac:
Disk Utility> Partition
-create two partitions. You'll determine their sizes.
Partition 1 format HFS+ I named it MAC External
Partition 2 format MS DOS (FAT) I named it W7 External
-Exit Mac
In Windows 7
Open Disk Management
Locate your external drive.
You will see the Mac partition and you will see an Unallocated partition. Choose the Unallocated partition, (that will become your W7) but you will need to name it and format it NTSF.
-Exit Disk Management
Done.
That was it. Hope it works for you as well.
More room is nice on both sides. I did my image and then backup copy for W7. And now in Mac I decided to use Time Machine for the very first time, since I found this application to schedule Time Machine more eco nomically (hour, or day, or week, or month...instead of it's current hourly updating). I could see why people ran out of hard drive space. The free application I found is called Time Machine Editor. Hope it works, if not I will do a SuperDuper clone and call that good. The link for Time Machine Editor http://timesoftware.free.fr/timemachineeditor/
Also on a side note, the new drive is a Hitachi 7200/1TB and it was so quiet that I had to check the enclosure repeatedly to reafirm that it was running. Very very very quiet drive. This drive replaced the original noisy Seagate that was in my LaCie Quadra2 enclosure. And firewire does really play a key role when using these larger drive.
Hope some of this information is beneficial to our members.

I feel like a addict. I'll kiss a man for my jailbreak.
I know people are working hard to get it done, and there is no one who appreciates their work more than I.
Bless you jailbreakers.
Jesus smiles upon you.
Wow!
There're creative ways to show your appreciation, kissing a man might not be enough motivation. Bust out some knee pads, then turn 'round, it ain't nuthin' but a butt ache; everyone cries their first time.
Take one for the team and git'r done.
:cool:

Hello.
I was wondering if someone can help me make up my mind if i should buy the macbook 13" i5 core or the i7 one.
I'm using my laptop for gaming and school.
The game im mostly playing is Heroes of Newerth, so i hoped that someone could help me pick which one i should choose - and if it's worth the extra money buying the i7 Core.
Greetings :apple:

Just an update......... it worked for me in my hotel room !
Unfortunately two issues
It takes anywhere from 1 to 10 tries to make it connect
And
My hotel wireless is too slow to keep a channel without skipping (but that is not the iPads fault)
So thanks for the help by the way !
If the hotel wifi is slow that's probably why it took a few trys to connect. I tried it at a Starbucks and McDonalds WiFi and it worked very well. The channels were clear and didn't skip/freeze.
