whenever i repair permissions (when updating osX .etc) the same permission always gets repaired. there may be others sometimes but this one is always there.
is this unusual?
i'll add the specific file permission once i do a repair.
ta. :)It would be nice if you stated which file always needs its permissions repaired. Afterall, there tens of thousands of files on each MacOS X computer. That said, there is a specific file whose permissions always gets changed during a permissions repair. IIRC, it has to do with ISO9600 CDs. At any rate, there is a short note in the Disk Utilities monitor window explaining why this file's permissions are what they are. It appears everytime this particular's file's permissions are repaired. All you have to do is read that note.

Anything Oprah likes becomes the most sought after item ever. Apple is lucky for this endorsement.
Yeah, the iPad would have been huge this holiday season, but with Oprah giving it her okey-dokey, it will be huger.

Hey everybody, thanks for the help. You have answered my questions. I do have one more though. After I rip a CD, then put it on my ipod, and I delete the CD from my itunes memory, why is it that when I plug my ipod back in, that CD (and playlist) are gone from my ipod? I guess the question is: Once I rip a CD, do I have to keep it in itunes? Thanks

Something I've always wondered about these flexible screens is while they're really neat looking, all the rest of a phone's components are not flexible, so the fact that the screen is flexible is kind of redundant, no?

can you do a safe boot on both machines and then shutdown
then test out boot times on both machines
a safe boot will clear out boot caches and the first reboot after that will give you accurate boot times

Operating a PC I felt like I had one hand tied behind my back trawling through the system trying to keep a handle on everything. Within a couple of months of owning a Mac I understand where all my files are, how to manage modify and play with them.
On a PC I was never quite sure when those "Shut down now" boxes would appear. The worst that happens with the mac is that I have to click a button to Force Quit an application with no apparent side effects on the system. And according to my crash log, since replacing a defective RAM chip and partitioning, there has never been a blip on my daily 10.2.4 partition, and the glitches on a highly abused "betas partition" has never forced me to restart the system in order to keep working.
Thanks to the stability and the unerring intuitive ability of the Mac and Jaguar, I am able to do all manner of tasks and multi media projects with no previous knowledge of this set up.
Plus, having paid a premium for the Powerbook and taken a lot of flak from PC owners about the price and the limitations of the Mac - no software blah blah blah - I have spent just �60 extra on Appleworks and not had to pay a penny more for a single byte of the extra software and utilities that reside on my betas partition. (It's all there on the internet, and the interfaces are all alike with not a trace of garish Windows style candy.)
And having bought into the Apple community, if I have a problem, it does not matter that I am the only PB owner in this town. Solutions are all on the internet in forums like this. Likewise it is irrelevant that none of the shops know anything about Macintosh. It is all available on the internet and through the post.
So, goodbye PC and Windows. Even if XP is like nothing that has gone before, I am happy with the product and the philosophy of the minority Mac. I have a feeling that this Powerbook really is a long term investment, another concept that does not equate with a PC.

They're also trying to overturn legislation approved by voters that would help ban puppy mills in the state. They also passed concealed carry legislation, going against the wishes of the voters.
I don't know why we bother voting in this state.

For awhile now (before and after various point upgrades) I've been seeing something that is a little odd. When I save items to my desktop, I end up getting multiple "copies" of them. Except they aren't really copies, but just duplicate icons. If I throw one of them away, they both go.
Here is an example:
http://www.mremw.com/MR_Images/Picture%201.jpg
As you can see, it doesn't happen to all files all the time (and never to hard drives or CDs). What's even stranger is that occasionally, if I'm saving a file to the desktop, or modifying an existing desktop file, the icons multiply even more:
http://www.mremw.com/MR_Images/Picture%202.jpg
I've tried most things (repairing permissions, rebuilding user account, etc.) with no luck. I'm assuming I might need to do a fresh install or something.
Anyone else get this?

I have a a1211 Mac book pro with 3mb memory and it works fine except that the display bezel is broken on one side near the hinge. The back case has sperated and it's onlly a matter of time before the other side breaks.
I am trying to decide if I should try to hunt down a bezel and rear case (parts cost I figure $250 to $350 + my labor) to fix the problem or wait and save to buy a new computer.

PhoneView for the Mac, TouchCopy for Windows--both extract voicemails directly from the phone though, not sure about from backups. I know the demo version of PhoneView won't let you save voicemail, you have to purchase the full version, but it's saved my hide more than once when iTunes decides to eat my data during a so-called sync, so for that alone, it's been worth the price. Add in that I can archive both texts and voicemail on the computer, and it's worth a lot more than they charge.
I'm not as familiar with TouchCopy, but a friend has it and bought it specifically to save vmail from her iPhone. As I recall, there was a demo version and it was the same thing, she had to get the full setup to get that ability. It appears to have most of the same features as PhoneView, and it's recommended for Windows users on the PhoneView FAQ.
You don't need to be jailbroken to use either program.

I've used both the ae.tuts and lynda sites. Both are also very good.
I'd suggest starting off (perhaps for a single months membership) with Lynda - they've got some very good basic courses (with exercise files) to get the fundamentals sorted in a structured way and then you can start 'playing' with the ae.tuts site.
I've always really rated the Greyscale Gorilla (http://greyscalegorilla.com/blog/) blog by a chap called Nick - very 'real world' tuts. All free.

If you wait for the MBA refresh (which might be a long wait - no one really knows, though rumours suggest this summer) it will probably get Sandy Bridge. In which case, absolutely it will be able to run your CPU-intensive apps, probably better than your current machine.

Converting to a different format should render it inoperable as would burning to a CD and ripping it again.
I expect the vulnerability is only present in the mp3 format and converting also chops and changes the file structure. To see that in action, try converting a file from mp3 to flac and then back again. Then use the Unix diff command to see if you get the same file!

sorry for my typo I indeed mean to write 24" not 27" for the 2006 model. she does a lot of electronic music mixing using the Logic software. she has about 6 different keyboards all cabled into (some way or another) the computer along with the mixer. All quite too complicated for me:) Thanks for the reply friend!
