I would imagine Parallels would be up to the things you list. Much easier to use, and saves you having to restart your Mac.

Ok.. I updated to Lion DP2 and my mdworker is going crazy like whenever I open Reeder for Mac it just goes crazy (see attached)
Does anyone know why this is happening. I have searched and I know mdworker is related to spotlight and its indexing but it never did this on DP1???
Is this a fresh install? There are reports of spotlight reporting 11 days or some crazy timeframe to index the volume. The mdworker process throttles back down to normal once Reeder is closed?

Thank you!! :) Im so happy people answered my questions :)
Yah I'm aware 64 gig is way too small to do lightroom or photoshop work. But my photos will be saved to an external hard drive. The only time I will be running lightroom on my mba is when I'm traveling, and edit a couple of photos and that's it.
And as far saving stuff on my mba I don't think I will be doing this since I already have 1thumb drive attached to it everytime I'm using it :)
I rely more on my Imac, it's my main work station :)
Loving my MBA more now if it will be in use for my photo editing when I'm out of town :)
Thanks again for the answers!

I would first stop any activity to the drive.
Next I would use Disk Utility and Repair Permissions on the Drive.
If you have Disk Warrior have it rebuild the Disk.
If not buy Disk Warrior and then rebuild.
Disk Warrior is an essential Utility for Disk Maintenance and has saved me on too many potential disasters to enumerate.

If you want to put that unspecified HDD into the MB, then no, as the HDD in that desktop PC from Acer is mist likely a 3.5" S-ATA HDD and MBs and MBPs and many other notebooks use 2.5" S-ATA HDDs.
Yeah i looked everywhere and could't find the size. Im just about to open it up to see.

last question. meaning i boot the computer in target disk mode and connect them with an ethernet cable? that will work?
No, TDM only works with Firewire.
What I meant with the Ethernet connection is a network setup. Each iMac will show up under "Shared" in Finder's Sidebar if File Sharing is enabled and both Macs are running Mac OS X at the same time (meaning they are booted into Mac OS X).

Squaretrade is more like insurance. The value of the policy is the amount of total repair costs you can incur. If you reach that limit you dont have any coverage.
With Apple you can have repairs done under warranty for the entire period (no spending limit).
For something like the MBA with likely high repair costs...I am not convinced Squaretrade is the best way to go.

That "Administrator" account is disabled by default.
I take it that you are using a standard account?
Did you make a password protected admin account for the purpose of authenticating with higher privileges from that standard account?
You need two accounts. A password protected admin account that is only there to provide admin credentials and to use to rescue standard accounts in the event of issues. And, a standard account used for day to day computing.
I am/was using a standard account, & this was the only account I created.
I figured out how to setup the administrator account by trial & error. Actually just trial & no error.
Thanks, all, for the help. It got me thinking in the right direction.

I have that exact speaker system and I can testify that it's awesome. For the price the sound you get is great, it has a clock (with alarm!), a remote, and it gets LOUD without a lot of distortion.
I've used it with batteries (it uses AAs I believe) but I don't really recommend it because it kinda eats em up.
I definitely recommend it if you're looking for some travel speakers. I use it more than my Bose Sounddock now because of the alarm/clock functionality.

You using AFP? Are you using ACLs on OS X Serve to control the permissions? You might need to verify the settings under your sharepoints section of OS X server (been a while since I used it) but I have had trouble similar to what you're saying before because of ACL and UNIX persmissions conflicting.

Either should work fine. I'd probably go with the mini ones though.

I would guess that you're not setting up your account settings in Mail.app right.

I'd like to hear the answer to this as well. I had the exact same thing happen--I bought a used iPad, went nuts in the app store, and then went to sync it. I set it to manually manage music, and still had no luck. I have two macs, so I tried it on the other machine and the second machine transfered all the apps to the computer and let me sync music without deleting.
I have no idea what the difference was. :)

Yah. Cutting mat, steel rule and a really sharp blade. Start and end your cut along both long edges inside the edge of the paper, then rotate 90� and cut through on the other edges.

So - are we really surprised? Is Adobe just "lazy" or did they cut their QA department? Maybe Safari does not have a significant enough market share to warrant QA testing?
The world may never know.

Wow, I can't believe I didn't think of that, I'm a genius. The only thing is, Can I download the Windows version and burn the .exe onto a disk? I'm trying to set up an old windows PC in the garage and turn it into a jukebox.
Yup.
You shouldn't have any probs doing that.

Thanks for the advice everyone. I kind of knew that the repair idea was a bit of a folly parts are getting rare and expensive relative to the value of the computer. Over the years I have replaced a fan, key board and LCD due kid induced failure and still have a working computer. I guess I will keep the kids and get a new lap top later this year, and use the IPad the kids gave me for fathers day till then.

What interface are you using with your G5 and DP? You didn't mention it, but I can't imagine that you're using your built-in analog connections on the G5, so what are you using for your external gear? And did you switch anything else when making the Windows -> Mac transition?
I have had little problems with Performer on my DP 450 G4 (an almost 3.5 year old machine). While I don't totally push the system, it is very stable and clean.
