    I have been waiting to hear the results from the Final Cut meeting last night. I haven't heard anyone celebrating the release of FC Server, or any other cool FC-related anything.

    Does anyone know what ever came of this "secret announcement?"

    Nope, but must not have been anything important or else we'd have heard about it or seen an update of some sort on the apple site.

    Man, just go buy one. The hardware was just updated and they are terrific machines. Installing Lion will take about 30 mins in typical Apple fashion. You'll love it.

    I should add that I used the install disks that came with the computer.

    As someone else mentioned, try running Disk Utility Repair Disk off of your install disc (while booted off it). Or, just reformat (which will erase the contents). The correct format would be "Mac OS Extended". That should give you a clean slate, provided there are no hardware issues (with the drive, in particular). Memory problems would show with different symptoms.

    If those are the original discs, it should work. Though, from what I can find on the earliest model (desk lamp style), the minimum it shipped with was 10.1.3. If it was any later model, it should have shipped with 10.2. Original discs should be grey.

    10.4, Tiger, should work just fine on that model. I used to run it on a slower 667MHz PowerBook.

    How about the airport express it's much cheaper then the extreme and can do almost anything the extreme can and more. The only disadvantage with the express over the extreme is that it can only have ten computer on its network at any given time were as the extreme can handle 50. Linsys makes some pretty good stuff too and they are less expensive but the express just has os many useful features. Plus it sense it so small you can take it with you on trips and make networks wherever you go, I do this all the time its great. :)

    ^^Exactly what i did! All good now :)


    Out of curiosity, why did you use a third party charger? I've done it a few times with other devices, but it's always been with quality, branded chargers (like charging my Kindle with my BlackBerry's charger), but I wouldn't dare do that with my iPad unless I knew it was top quality since so many of those third party chargers, like third party batteries, can damage your equipment.

    By the way, I think using a third party charger may have voided your warranty anyway. At least on some devices I'm pretty sure it does.

    Honestly I was using the same charger...just was an extension, so the tip was different...

    ifi remember right the powermacs do not have a mic port, just a line in. the mic port has an extra amp i believe to make it work. im not sure, it was something like that that the audio guy at work wa explaining to me. i would recommend getting an imic, and go from from there.

    You are quite mistake, this second preview is near feature complete. It needs some polishing, but for the most part it's nearly ready to be shipped.

    The first preview had a lot of major bugs. It may be near feature complete, but I agree that they need to spend time and ensure the IDE is stable before they make a GM.

    I have 3 questions

    1. at the Tiger release did everyone get scratch off cards?

    2. ^^ Did everyone receive the 10% discount along with the scratch cards?

    3.If I were to buy an iMac that night with the 10% discount can i get that on top of my education discount?

    apple 5770 / 5870 supports xfire afaik.

    I would very much like to implement this if they do. Do you have any info on this please? I couldn't find anything that suggested that anyone has it working with the Apple cards.

    Not sure why you think you need to restore. If your iPad is on earlier firmware, just update to 4.2.1 with iTunes, then jailbreak using Greenpois0n. If it's already on 4.2.1, just run Greenpois0n.

    Just make sure to make a backup in iTunes before you do anything, and you'll be fine.

    Thanks for the info, guys. I appreciate it.

    Well I am considering the new MBPs too. Getting a PB would only be for curiosity, posterity, interest etc.

    :) im sure your stuff is better than mine

    Anyone using a MIDI interface? im looking at the M-Audio ones on the apple store

    I've been using Logic Pro 8 since it was released with an M-Audio USB Fast Track. I also bought an M-Audio Keystation 88. The keyboard feels good and I haven't had any problems with it. The Fast Track sounds decent enough. Latency isn't too bad when Logic Pro is set to low-latency mode.

    In my experience, they show you a video about how great it is to work in retail and then make you do some dumb role playing exercises and then you go home and never hear from them again.

    It is amazing. It seems like just yesterday I was excited about our team getting time on the Japanese Earth Simulator. Now, as we're getting proposals together for Blue Waters, we need to show our code performance would scale to thousands of cores-- it's like having a dedicated Earth Simulator of our own.

    I also love the line on having the power to predict the path a tornado would take. I think someone at IBM is BS'ing on that one. Even if the numerical schemes and parameterizations were up to the task (which they aren't), I bet the computational power would have to be much greater.

    fun stuff...

    Consumer services don't work well as a real CDN. Here are some suggestions:

    VPS (http://www.vps.net/?r=rErb) (UK company)
    Amazon cloud s3 (http://aws.amazon.com/s3/)
    Rackspace (http://www.rackspace.com/cloud/cloud_hosting_products/files/)

    I vote RS.
    After amazon's latest flubs and being hacked w/ wikileaks, I'd be hesitant to rely on them right about now.

    and people have two legs. Of course it isn't common knowledge, that still doesn't not make it a huge security breach. Obviously Apple thought people could figure it out if they released a security update just for this. Does apple normally wait for just one bug? Usually in security updates it is multiple bugs I think.

    Except you forgot the part where you need to have knowledge of how the hack actually works. The majority of bugs are just not common knowledge or as easy as browsing someone on the same network.

    Hi, I am currently deciding which 27" imac to get. With student discount the i5 3.1GHz would be 1.670,76 euro. For 1.846,88 (176 euro more) I could get the i7. I read that only the i7 has hyperthreading. Could someone explain in layman's terms what that means? Would this only give an advantage when using specialized applications that are optimized for quad-core use, or does hyperthreading also increase performance on applications that are not made for multi-core use?

    Also, if I choose not to get the i7. Would it make more sense to go with the cheaper 2.7GHz i5 because of the higher turbo-boost which brings the performance closer to the 3.1 i5. I'm probably not gonna play much games, so the 512MB should be enough for me, but maybe for future-proofing/resale-value it would be wiser to get the 1GB?

    Any info/advice would be appreciated :)

    I threw my free case on the trash, I hated the damn thing. Then again I never had the signal bars problem. I now only use my different styles of speck case just for protection of my clumsy hands.

    A faster way is to use multiquote, then erase the first /quote, and paste (or retype it) after the second /quote.
    As you can see, that doesn't work well, as it makes it look like the wrong person did the quoting.

    Or cutting and pasting the second quote= to the start of the reply ...
    Which is what I said:
    ... use the multi-quote button (http://images.macrumors.com/vb/images/buttons/multiquote_off.gif) to get both quotes in your reply, then cut and paste the original post into the post that quoted it.

    Ah ok, I guess I was expecting some sort of Apple/iweb type software.
    Thanks for clearing it up for me.
