... well, actually selling it to my Bro. I wanted to wipe out the iBook, and put a clean install of OS X in it, but, restore disks are nowhere to be found --- DAMN! :mad:
Question... If I were to buy OS X Panther, will those be OK? Will they allow me to do everything the original disks did (change Admin, passwords, etc.) or am I S.O.L?
I called Apple for the restore discs, and they wanted 100+ for the original discs. For OS X Jaguar?! That's insane, when I can buy OS X Panther for the same amount of money!
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated, Thank You! :D
Well,
The original restore disks contained more than just the OS, they also contained the add on apps, Classic environment, Quicken, Games etc.
Do you have a friend who is a Mac guy who could LOAN you their install discs? You're not stealing the OS, if you have a license for it.
But in short, yes Panther install diiscs would be fine.
On another note, you could create new user and just delete the apps he doesnt want too....

Not #4, The last time I did that my G5 Electrocuted me, and it wouldn't boot for a week!
I ned to get typing and do a few more classic pages! The plan is interesting, I just don't know how to work with the software well enough to help implement it!
I know even less about the software, but my Mac 512K requires a good bath every now and again.

You should check out VLC (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html). It plays pretty much any video format you can imagine (including WMV).
All but wmv3, which is unfornatley used a lot these days. So you'll be stuck with WMP9 for a while... :(

In case you are unaware; Castlevania Symphony of the Night was released on Xbox 360 Live Arcade yesterday morning for a mere $10.
Pros:
This game reminds me of playing this back in the day on a PS1. I've got this hooked up to my 53" 1080i Projection HDTV and it looks great. I'd say the game definitely looks better (though not good compared to the high definition games being released today). You can actually adjust the game to fit your screen, so no square game in the middle with design around it. I've got it filling almost my entire widescreen tv. The controls are very easy....it took me about 2 minutes to adjust to playing this on the 360 controller (which I thought might be difficult considering I've played this on a PS1 countless times). This game, in my opinion or memory, seems to be just like the original (with the exception of enhanced graphics)...though it's been awhile since I've played the original. I'm definitely grateful for that as I was worried they'd butcher it like they did Contra. Though this is single player and you cannot play online together..... a friend and I both purchased this and put in 3.5 hours or so of this game while on Xbox Live chat. That was pretty fun. For being a game that was on a 700mb CD for the PS1, the file size comes in at a very small 150mb. That is great since there's only so much room on the 360 hard drive. This also gives me hope that there will be many more games to come from that generation of consoles since they can compress them down this much.
Cons:
There's really only one negative so far that I've noticed; while going into my inventory screen the inventory area went all black. I could go to the pause menu and see it, but not to the inventory screen or back to the game screen to save my game and restart. I had to stop my game, exit out of the arcade, and start it again and load at my last point. This only happened once and has yet to happen to my friend who was playing it.....but I lost quite a bit of time in the game d/t it. So if you get this game, save every chance you get just in case there is a software bug or something.
Conclusion:
If you are a fan of Castlevania, buy this. If you appreciate great video games of the past, buy this. If you can only buy one arcade game from XBLA, buy this. If you don't yet have a 360, buy one and then buy this.
I've been gaming since the 2600 and have owned/played tons of games.....and this is a Top 10 game in my opinion. Buy it :)

Well, unless you find an easier way, you only would have to type each album name (how many?) once, then copy, paste, paste, paste... for each track.
Or select all tracks for an album, Get Info, then type the Album Name one time, instead of copying and pasting.
For the OP: Have you considered removing those albums from your iTunes library and re-ripping them with an internet connection available?

a Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T7400 2.16 ghz would fit too, but cost not much less
but a new processor is not really economical with prices of around $250 , but maybe its just because i live in europe where these early minis still sell for quiet a lot , so upgrading the processor and ram brings you above the price of a used mini 08 and 09 models ,and even close to a used 2010 model but i live in europe
so i would look into getting a working and "tested" used one , its more cost effective and processors are the most reliable parts in any computer really so can be bought used without much risk if the seller is serious and has testing facilities

Why are your options only iMovie 11 and FCE4? You are thinking wrong, way wrong.
Here's the scoop. FCP is undergoing a revolution. Come the summer, FCPX is being released. It will sport an ultra-affordable price ($299), and it will do AVCHD natively. So wait for that, and go for it.
Here's FCPX (http://news.cnet.com/8301-27076_3-20054131-248.html), read up!
The new iMacs will be an excellent pairing with FCPX and AVCHD.

Laptop GPU's aren't really widely available for sale like desktop GPUs, if you do find one get ready to pay a steep price as they are intended to be replacements for defective/broken parts in gaming laptops.

What application do you use to render those frames? Is that application multi-core and multi-thread compatible?
I use Lightwave 9.6 and perhaps Lightwave 10 in the near future. I use Digital Performer 7 and allot of virtual instruments with high processing effects. I am also getting Final Cut X when it comes out in June. It's hard to know with cinibench what they are using to get the speed performance they are getting. I also heard a guy from Newtek tell me that the xx55 computers are much faster with radiosity in the 3D then the xx53 and xx54s from 2008 and 2009. I'm just so confused but so in need of a fast computer for my business.

If he would read through his work before posting, he might actually look credible.
I am a me.com user, and I have not had any problems with it since 6 months after the launch of the service. He needs to get is facts straight.
If Apple makes it capable of playing games on your TV, that opens up a whole new can of worms. I am not sure they are ready to take on those markets (Nintendo, Microsoft XBOX, Sony).

I am trying to get the icon for the phone app on the iPhone, but I sold mine and bought an iPod Touch. If you could please SSH into your iPhone and get the icon for the phone app that would be awesome.
Here are the files I need:
icon.png
icon@2x.png
They should be in the app folder for the phone app. Please don't edit them at all. Just attach them to your post.
Thank you so much in advance!

Hi all,
I hope that somebody can help.
I first noticed this problem after I noticed a new feature on the phones settings for use as a hotspot. My macbooks wireless card is shot so I plugged in my 3Gs via the usb and used it as a hotspot. I used this a couple of times no problem and then for a longer period during this longer period my phone crashed and had a half lit (as in it wasn't turned off as you could just make out the light from the home screen) screen. I did not know how to reset my iPhone at this point so I just had to wait until the battery ran out - luckily I have an iPhone and did not need to wait all that long... After that it was really slow when opening apps and texting was a nightmare and all of a sudden... back to normal.
I though "ah, freak coincidence" plug it back in as a hotspot, unplug it and it seemed fine. A short while later it's back to the unresponsiveness. The text is driving me mad. It throws in fullstops where ever it likes changes my text randomly, keys stick (as on the homescreen) it's just a really bad experience at the moment. The first time lasted about 2 days. this latest time is now about 2 weeks in :( HELP!!!!
Is anybody having a similar experience? Can anybody help?
I have today freed up some space, I've closed the app's I don't use but still it's sooooooo slllllloooooowwwwww!
HELP! Please!:confused:
