Turtle Tattoo Designs

Nm... found this (http://www.ipadforums.net/ipad-os/20707-cant-upgrade-4-2-4-3-a.html) which was exactly what I was experiencing. Worked like a charm.

can u only save blobs from the current FW that your idevice is on or can u save whatever Apple is signing?

Trying to work with my mind really on the new product. But we have iOS 4 to look forward to - when will that be released?

XCode 4 looks like its going to take a big step foward. Hopefully as large as the one between ProjectBuilder and XCode.

I'm really looking forward to this. Any know of a possible release date?

SL has been rock solid for me...can't remember the last time i even had a crashed. You've probably something over thats being screwing up somethings. Maybe rebuild launch services, repair permissions, run cron scripts, clear out your cache and do a file systems check.

SL for me has been arguably a better OS than Leopard with the exception of it's expose implementation.

Hey guys,

First of all, great website!

I was wondering if we could get an iOS forum as well, since there's one for Mac OS X, and none specifically for iOS (unless i'm blind). It seems that a lot of people are talking about iOS updates in the iPhone or iPad or iPod Touch forums.

What do you guys think?

So who here will try the WINE GPU Folding on macs ;)

Yeah. Still rocking the old black keyboard, too.

The iPod touch bluetooth only works for headphones. There's no profile for anything else. Even if there was one, there's no user visible file system on the iPod Touch.

so how could that be achieved? you think automator can do such a thing?


I'm just a designer, this is the wrong forum for this question although it's been helpful in defining what it is you're trying to achieve. I would create a new thread in the OS X or perhaps the App forum that's specifically to do with the scripting needed to parse your text file and produce new files based on those entries. Once you've got a bunch of files with the correct names that Photoshop can open and batch process to the required format, the rest is a cakewalk.

PDFs might be valuable in the process because you can natively produce them within OS X from text files and then also open them with Photoshop to convert them to what you need.

Agreed... and love the work also.

Well, it's mostly games, which is a pity. I know it's not a gaming laptop but they do sell them through Steam, so I'd like to buy them.

The way you say it, it seems related to the extra power provided by the SB processor. So there seem to be three solutions.

1. Undervolting, which isn't possible right now.

2. Downgrading, and, as in the MacBook Air, fixing another kind of bottleneck (HD operation).

3. Better cooling through termal paste, more fans, cooling pad, etc.

Am I right here? I'd like to know more about this CPU+GPU combo in the same core, because I read it lead to further heating. Is there any truth to this?

Just because it's on steam doesn't mean you need to buy the game... Furthermore, like with Windows, you need to see if the requirements match your system or it'll run poorly.

Under volt is possible. It's pointless though especially if you're stressing the system then the fan will come on or your system will shut down

Downgrade is up to you. But any system, you stress it, fans will come on

Cooling pad just adds to the noise. You can attempt a thermal paste change but like I said, games will cause the system to run fans at max to keep it a good temperature.

It's not so much of a CPU + GPU combo, it's the heat generated by both parts of the die concentrated on a single heatsink. To be honest the older systems genereated about the same amount of wattage wasted in heat so it's not too big of a difference

I don't have a portable console right now but a friend loved and got a lot of play from Monster Hunter...

i had monster hunter but i was so incredibly bad that i traded it to my friend for field commander...which was repetetive and boring. i think im going with The warriors

I thought it was at 10am Pacific Standard Time, which would be 6pm here. :confused: Am I totally gone or is it starting at 9am PST? (which would be 5pm here)

edit: FRICK! yeah, ok, 9am PST/ 5pm GMT :o

I'll get my coat.

Try restarting your machine, FileVault should ask you if you want to optimise, and will then recover the HD space in your Home folder.

I've been using FV for a while, it seem to work fine as long as you remember to point audio and video apps at a external FireWire drive.

I have found what I feel is a great solution for people with slower G4's or people that just want the site to stop hogging all their CPU. I recently discovered a great free app called "Mactubes" and have quickly fallen in love with it. Using this on my G4 1.8GHz I have watched video of all different quality/resolution and the CPU consumption ranges from 17-36%. The even better thing is that you can watch, search and download every video on youtube without ever going to the website. Gives you a great player window also that makes it much more like watching vids in VLC or something.

These results I speak of require one specific setting in the apps preferences..

1. Download Mactubes here. (http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/28608/mactubes) It supports 10.4.2+

2. Launch it then open preferences. Set the player type to Quicktime like the image I have attached shows. The window mentions near the bottom you need Safari 4+ but that is only for the "Video player" mode which uses html5 but without actually launching Safari. QT player setting uses even less CPU.

I have also tried the flash and video player setting and they use more CPU. The quicktime interface takes flash out of the equasion all together which is amazing. Virtually every video on youtube is a lowres h.264 with a flash (.flv) wrapper. The QT setting ignores the wrapper and plays the h.264. Even a G4 400+ can play low res h.264 without the flash crap.

Please share your results if you try this. :)

So, I guess Windows needs to update their XP background then, huh?

LOL, yeah. Doubt they'd do that though.

I've got a current model Mac Mini that I'd like to connect to a non-HD television via Component cable. I have an DVI-Mini Display Port adapter which was purchased from a third party as well as a DVI-Component adapter that came with it. Here are some photos:

Aside from a Component cable to connect to the TV, anything else I might need for this to work successfully?

Thanks!

10 points for raining on peoples parades.. geez...

Seriously! I was the only person at the AT&T store the evening of the iPhone launch that wasn't buying one, and there were about 40 people. Couple people thought I was nuts (only waited about an hour), but I was there for the :apple: experience!

The hat was just folded in half so people wouldn't have to actually put it on, and could just hold it up.

arn

I eat my words then. :o

Looking at the site, it is actually not too bad looking. Well, for use on flights etc...
