I was kinda Surprised that Universal is in the rental deal with itunes espacaily after the whole NBC pulling out of itunes deal i wonder if this was a move made by universal to try to get NBC Back?

Well someone needs to pay their skilled, drunken, lazy mod team .. oh wait ..they don't get payed or even supported ..

Hi
You've Got Private Messages!

Hi guys,

wondered if someone can help at all. Have searched the net quite extensively with this one - I'm now under the assumption the logic board will need replacing unless anyone can tell me otherwise?

I'll list as much info as I can if you need anything else let me know.

Got an iPhone 3g from a friend that only powers in DFU mode when connected to the mac/pc.

Blank screen permanently on.
All restores return error code 6.
2 different usb cables tried, tested on OSX 10.6.7, windows 7 + sp1 and xp sp3 (xp is virtual).

I do not know what version firmware was previously on it.
I have tried to restore official 2.0.1, 2.1, 3.1.2, 3.1.3, 4.1, 4.2
I have tried custom firmware on 3.1.3, 2.1, 4.1

I have attempted jailbreak with redsn0w, pwnagetool, ziphone
redsn0w seems to work then instead of booting to springboard the iphone just reverts back into dfu.

I have checked the logs of these restores and noticed this:
Error setting variable - 'boot-args': (iokit/common) general error
error setting 'boot-args' to '': 1

to which a little googling led me to a possibility with logic board.
I have tried using iRecovery but to be honest unsure where to go with it i also tried TinyUmberella which attempted to fix recovery and the phone didnt reboot. just stayed in dfu.

Although this is in DFU i have kept making a point of making sure i manually place it into DFU when attempting restores just to make sure its not in recovery mode (though i doubt it ever has been as it has never shown the 'connect to itunes' message- just always a blank screen unless recovering.

Recovery for all firmware seems to get 99% of the way before showing error 6.

Does anyone know a way of fixing this issue or do I give up and sell for spares/repair?

Thanks

How long will it last? http://cgi.ebay.com/Apple-Newton-Notepad-Prototype-DVT-Unit-/320533797738?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4aa14d9b6a#ht_839wt_1139

My favorite is SilverStripe. Not as widely used or known, but I love the flexibility it gives me as a developer and it is pretty user-friendly, too.

Side note -- Ruby on Rails is framework, not really a CMS. It would be comparable to Cake, Symfony or Yii (frameworks for PHP).

+ 1 for SilverStripe, it is the CMS for software developers. The thing about SilverStripe is that although it has a GUI CMS for setting up pages, I like it more for its robust ORM and PHP framework features.

I wrote jaredandkaylie.com (http://jaredandkaylie.com/) in SilverStripe

Question:
Lets take the iPhoto app as an example . . . If iPhoto is installed onto the ssd, it should/will launch the app faster than if it was installed onto the hdd - okay, I get that.

Now, once iPhoto has opened/launched, will it operate any faster or smoother if iPhoto is installed on a ssd vs. if it was on a hdd?

If the photos are on the SSD drive, then yes they will launch faster than if on the HDD. Now that said, if they are just average say 2MB JPG photos the difference will not be huge. If it is a very hi-res photo say 10MB JPG the difference will be more noticeable.

When the Wii first came out, Nintendo shipped the bulk to the US, since it's the single most important market when it comes to gaming, but the Wii would sell out with in a few hours of it being stocked.

There's been a huge demand for the Wii and Nintendo is currently filling the demand of other regions, so they haven't been able to ship as many to the US.

Anyway, check stores like Target or Best Buy on a Sunday morning. They generally get the biggest shipment of Wiis.

That's where I've always seen them (Target), as I do my grocery shopping at super target.. I'll keep an eye out. I was blown away when I saw them on ebay for $400+ and talks about waiting lists, etc..

he's online right now.

i've just discovered that quicktime seems to have no channels available for streaming. i used to have npr bookmarked in favorites, and when i went to it, it was gone. went to refetch it, and discovered that nothing seems available. sometimes qt says their channels have changed, and i need to update existing software. but when i try, there's nothing there. does anyone know what's going on? :( i don't understand. thanks

I don't know guys, I'm sold on the Mac Pro; after owning the 2.93 iMac the pro feels much faster, and I'm talking just basic tasks so far. The Pro i went with is the 3.2 quad with a 5870 so although the proc isn't much faster, it is night and day, I'm not sure what does it but i'm definitely happy.

I assume you are not interested in the Stealth Armor products available at fusionofideas.com? The one I like best is like an Invisi-shield. They have actual case types too.

So my school's robotics team was rummaging through a closet of stuff that was to be thrown out, and we found an Apple IIe.

I have a couple questions:

The operating system is in the ROM, right? No need for a floppy OS or something?

Does the computer need a mouse? In my reading, it seems like it doesn't.

It only had two cards inside: the 5.25 floppy card and what I think was the RAM. Does it need anything else to operate (i.e. a video card)?

Lastly, are there any things I didn't think of that I should know??
Any sweet games for it on eBay?

Thanks!:D:D

No, the Operating System is *not* in ROM. The ROM includes BASIC, and the System Monitor (kind of like BIOS, but with a few extra bells & whistles).

The Operating System comes on 5.25" floppy disks. The Apple IIe usually ran DOS 3.3 or ProDos as the Operating System. Disk images for these Operating Systems can be found at various places on the net, but you'll need a physical 5.25" floppy to boot from in order to read/write to floppy drives. As a general rule, many users formatted their Apple II floppies to include a copy of DOS or ProDos on each floppy. This was done as a convenience to keep from having to look around for a Master DOS disk every time you rebooted ("Now *where* did I put that damn floppy!??").

If you boot the Apple IIe without a floppy, you will get a Basic prompt, and can access the low-level monitor routines if you know how. But you will not be able to do too much with the machine unless you boot DOS or ProDOS.

The Apple II does not need a mouse.

At least 5.0.3 works (launched it from my SL partition).

Well I have 5.0.3 and works with many bugs like don't let add bookmarks and doesn't reopen last closed tabs completely

Ive let it run down completely a couple times before but i havent had any visible changes. I could try lowering the brightness and turning off the push notifications. It still should'nt go down 5% battery for just a facebook update.

Last time I went to meet-up with some people in SF, we ended up in a "massage" parlor. :eek::o:D

More information please...
:cool:

I am thinking about it, but not sure how early to get there to wait in line.

Hmm... After it's done with the first CD, and it's rebooting, the CD is still in there, right? I believe that the mac continues to boot off the first CD until the second is needed. The HD isn't booted from until the installation has finished. Once it's done with the first CD, and restarts, try holding down the "C" key to ensure it doesn't try and boot from the HD.

Well, after it reboots it is booting to the CD but it comes up with the intial install screen all over again.

What is weird is the last thing it does before it reboots is the system optimization which I think is the very last thing that happens before the install is complete. But it is still on the first CD.

Thanks for your response, I wasn't expecting any responses till after the Macworld hysteria calmed down.

Hitachi is ex-IBM, so they have the worst historical reputation.Actually not all of the Hitachi drives are off the old IBM production lines. Hitachi had their own drive business as well. Also, Hitachi has applied their own technology and resources to the forer IBM production lines.

And in truth, IBM had a couple of spectacular failures with one generation of drives that caused most of the IBM failure issues.

Bad GPU son.

I suspect the success of Zeus and other botnets that target Windows is due to Windows XP admin accounts being used for day to day computing and possibly, on a much more limited scale, users turning off UAC in admin accounts in Windows Vista/7.

If this new Mac botnet modelled after Zeus does not become as problematic as its Windows counterparts albiet in terms of percentage of user base infected, this will show that much of the malware problems out in the wild are due to users running with elevated privileges and that utilizing an authentication mechanism by default is effective at inhibiting malware. Basically, it will show that the average user is not as helpless as AV software vendors try to make users feel.

A multimedia iPod would have a the very least a big press conference. And we usually find out about those a week or two in advance. Since there is no keynote in Paris this year, I'd say no video iPod just yet.

Maybe it's punishment for the leaked rumors. ;) NO MORE NEW PRODUCTS FOR YOU!

No luck here, either. :-(

I think people try to prevent multiple songs from the same artist showing up at once... but we then forget to go back...

we'll get 'em in there...

I'll talk to the other admins
