You don't calibrate your iMac, you calibrate your workflow--scanner, monitor, printer. The result is a ColorSync profile for each element of your workflow. The Displays preference pane allows you to manually calibrate your monitor. However, I have never be able to improve upon my current settings with this.
My recommendation: If you want to calibrate, then get a calibration kit and do the job properly. Otherwise, forget about it.

Has anyone at the show done 'About This Mac' on a MacBook Air?
I would have thought that the new trackpad options would need new software, but I'm guessing someone would have noticed by now.
(Unless they are just using a bespoke 10.5.1 for the show models, and 10.5.2 will come out when they are actually shipped...?)

Ok, I bought a MBA on 10th of January , and i have issues with the left speaker, it makes some buzzing noise even when I'm at 50% of volume. Also the magnets that keep my lid closed , the left one is weaker than the other. I am covered by Apple's 1 Year Limited Warranty , and I'm going to Torino tomorrow and there's an Apple Store (Le Gru). What can I expect and what should i do ,will i have a reparation ,a replacement ?? Any advice what to do ?? Thanks

Hey all,
I'm hoping someone can help me with my MacBook Pro. My wife was running Power Point on it for a few hours yesterday and ever since then, I can't get it to boot in OSX. It just hangs on the grey screen and keeps spinning. I've tried the following:

It's a long thread, but look at this:

There was an extensive discussion about this mouse. I was kinda thinking about getting one, which is why I remembered the thread.
As far as Airport, I have not found huge issues with BT and airport. I have the Apple BT wireless mouse, and also a BT phone, and I routinely use both at the same time. I did have trouble with a 2.4GHz cordless telephone, but I have not had trouble with BT.

So I'm getting an iMac tomorrow, but I'm not sure which is the best suited.
So here's all the relevant information in a nutshell:
I use Adobe Fireworks on a daily basis. Sometimes I use Adobe Illustrator. I rarely use Photoshop.
I plan to use Coda and Transmit a lot (I like to submit content to the web).
I might use Final Cut Pro or Adobe Flash to make movies and flash, but do not really take this into consideration.
Here are all the iMac models:
http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/family/imac/select?mco=MjIwNTQyNjE
I think of all of the, I should get the $1499 21.5in model. Agreed? I mean, does anyone regret getting a 27in model? Does it make things more of a hassle, navigating in a screen with such a huge screen? I mean, I don't want to spend too much time moving my mouse to click on something on the side like a vector tool (I'm still working on memorizing my hotkeys).
Anyways, so what do you guys think?

I had the Toshiba SSD, and upgraded to the OWC SSD (basically same speed as the faster Samsung SSD). I'd never be able to tell the difference between them speed wise. Its nothing to worry about.
Interesting...so is the OWC really faster as they claim?
OWC is the only real after-market choice if you want to increase the SSD size but at $550ish for 240 GB, seems rather expensive.

Howdy. I recently bought Drive Genius 3 (v3.1 is read on the label). I wasn't able to boot from the disc so I contacted their support - anyone else have that problem?
I did hook up two drive chasses to my MBP and did a successful drive cloning from the source disk to the destination (so it's worth the money), but has anybody tried the defragment utility? If so, is it worth the time to use?
Thx!

The booth was in a bad location but the display caught my eye. I was happy that it did. Very cool. This will work for my small business in CA, KY and IN but heard from others the release was to be last year. Can't wait forever.

I recommend that adapter (it's from IDE&ATA[and some others] to USB 2.0). It's good for quick transfers of data from bare hard drives and you can always use it again in the future. Quite a useful gadget to have lying around.

Hey guys,
One of the fans in my 2007 mbp is broken and makes a horrifically loud buzzing and grinding noise when the fans speed up, is there a way to lower speeds of individual fans as the right one is fine but the let one needs turning down to reduce the noise a little.
Thanks guys

Why on earth would an external hard drive speed up anything? If you need a ton of storage, a backup drive (say for Time Machine, extra music/videos/etc), or just want some insurance against hard drive failure, get an external drive.
But buying one and hooking it up to the Dell or a new MBP isn't going to do anything to make them faster, and it certainly won't fix a year old Dell that's breaking down.
I've yet to buy a PC notebook that has lasted for over a year. It seems like the day that year warranty expires is when they break down. Hard drive failure, hardware issues, etc. That's why I switched to a Mac, which has been going strong since I got it.
Take the money you'd spend on a hard drive and put it towards a MBP. It's a much better investment, as I guarantee the Dell will only get worse.
This is completely true, and I've just been hoping that the Dell would get better, but I will be buying a Macbook this year sometime, thx for the comment, I'm glad I know I'm not the only one :P .

Still having problems im afraid . ive taken screen caps but they are very small will try and sort that out in a bit. my footage is in DV pal but i was exporting in H.264. would that affect the outcome of the export? Like i say i changed the frame rate of the export to match the clip settings . the only reason im not using final cut pro is because i had a problem with that too where the canvas player was not giving me the play back of the timeline

I would want to see the "PowerMac" camelcase form be avoided. Apple do seem to avoid this in external docs, and when they use it internally its meaning seems to have settled on any PPC desktop Mac, including iMacs. For that generic case, "PowerPC Mac" or similar should get the point across to normal people.
It would be nice to leave revision letters and code names out of "real" article titles too. (redirects with models' pet names, e.g. Yikes, to make linking from forums more convenient would be another story -- and of course mentioning them inside the pages would be fine!).
The reason I'm proposing this particular scheme is that many users of this resource will be here because they have problems that need solving. It will make life easier for them if we're on the same page as Apple.
----
Anyway, a scheme that would make sense to me is:
Power Mac == the generic term, anything that was originally sold as a "Power Macintosh" or "Power Mac"
iMac, PowerBook, etc. == those product lines.
PowerPC Mac == any Mac with a PowerPC inside.
Individual Power Mac product lines get the names they had when sold as new: Power Macintosh G3 (and older), Power Mac G4 (and newer).
Specific models get their public names, in the style used by Apple in AppleSpec (http://www.info.apple.com/support/applespec.html) and on their support pages. (True, we won't always know what those titles will be until after support docs start trickling out, but those will always be the latest models so the number of links to be touched up later will be smallish.)

Thats pretty cool. I lost interest in SETI after the change from classic, I did not like the change in scoring and work units.
Really I pretty much stopped when I switched from Mac OS 9 to 10. It would always run in the background in 10. Which I did not want I only wanted SETI to run when the screen saver turned on. Once it was running in the background that meant it ran without 100% CPU usage thus screwing up my average CPU time per work unit.

Then try Disk Utility and delete the Windows partition, then drag the divider of the Mac OS X partition to the bottom.
what exactly should be done there is no "delete" should i erase or what and when you say drag the driver down what is meant to be done

Okay, I've reached a stage when I'm starting to listen to music more and to fuel this new interest, I'm looking into building my up collection.
I've looked through some music and for some I cannot find the CDs for them. Either they're not licensed in the United States or they can't be found in stores. However some can be found on iTunes and file sharing sites.
Here is the dilemma being, if I were to buy a song on iTunes, and then I deleted the purchased song and downloaded the same song from a file sharing site, what would the legal issues here? Of course I'd be downloading lossless (the only reason I buy CDs in the first place).
And please don't make this a "Can you tell?" discussion, since I have reasonably good ears [along with good cans] and can tell the difference between lossless and lossy music.
