1. Does anyone know how to get the voice and video portions of Yahoo Chat to work on a mac? Is that possible?
2. For some reason, my computer can't find a keychain for me, and it constantly asks me if I want to create one. No matter how many times I say "yes, please create a keychain," there never seems to be one. Any ideas on why and how to fix?
Oh, one more...
Apple, when they reformatted my hard drive, misspelled my name on my Users account. Does anyone know how to change that account info?

Here is a fool proof way to decide "wait or buy now"...
If the computer you have is not doing what you need then buy a new computer.
If your current computer is serving your needs then don't buy a new computer.
Don't worry about what might be released later if the new computer fixes some problem, then fix the problem now. There are two issues here (1) buying something for nor reason is a waste of money (2) waiting can go on "forever" so don't fall into that trap. Buy what you need when you need it.
Thanks for the reply, it helped a lot!!

Curious as I am getting ready to sell a 4.2.1 firmware iphone 3gs with 5.15.04 modem firmware. I'm JB & running ultrasn0w(which installed just fine) but i don't know if its unlocked. I don't want to start the auction saying its unlocked if it isn't. I'm going to try a tmobile sim from a prepaid phone tomorrow or find someone with one I can try but does anyone have any experience with this?

Hate to say it, but with older IDE drives, some clicks are nothing to be concerned about. However, if the click is is followed with kernel panics and things of that nature? I would agree the drive might be going south. www.ifixit.com has a great guide on a tear down, and replacement drives are easily sourced and cheap. www.geeks.com and www.newegg.com are great places to start.

It takes a while before the system recognises you have more than 250 posts, so just wait some hours, as you have made your 250th post less eight minutes ago.
A look at the FAQs would have answered your question:

thanks for that, I was reading the rules page but I didn't see this.

It's hard to give specific advice without code to look at but...
Put the thing you want to move up in it's own movie clip. Put an instance of the clip on top of the background and mercury. Give the instance a name so you can refer to it in action script. They are different ways you could layer stuff, but start simple and only get more complicated if you have to.
I assume you have some actionscript already that is correctly scaling the mercury, right? That's where you want to put the script to move the banner. Assign a value to the .y property to move it up and down. E.g. if your instance is called "banner" then banner.y = 100 will move it to position 100.
Figure out which y position corresponds to 0% and which to 100%. Let's call those two values yfor0 and yfor100. Yuo can then calulate the current .y position for the banner like this:
banner.y = yfor0 + (yfor100 - yfor0) * percentToTarget;
Once you've got that working, add a dynamic text field to the banner movie clip. Give it a name, e.g. percentDisplay. Then you can access it in script. E.g.,
banner.percentDisplay.text = String(percentToTarget * 100) + " %";
(you probably want to play with rounding to whole number for display)
Likewise you probably want to create another text field for displaying the $ amount raised.

to get a nano? i got a free 4gb silver mini when i bought my powrbook with the student union deal and i love how the silver of the mini and powerbook match but i dont know if i should sell it or not. i love both.
I would keep the mini and save some cash and with the rebate purchase a new nano; for the mini in time to come say 10 years or more will become an "antique" :rolleyes:

I upgraded my MacBook Air 1st gen to Lion and now AirPrint does not work from iPad!! Using a third party app. AirPrint Activator does show printers attached to the mac but still doesn't print! Any one has any resolution?

The pedometer does't need anything extra to work. It uses ipod's accelerometer if I remember correctly. pedometer basically just counts your steps and it's not good for running, you will need the nike+ set.
I think that only 5th gen and 6th gen nano have pedemeter.

Who's gonna be there and what time is everyone showing up? I thought about getting there super early (like 6 am) but after reading a few posts, I've decided to just get there around noon or 1 o'clock. Four hours prior to launch time seems to be the most accepted time for showing up to an Apple product launch.

ok so I was happy to finally install Pro Tools (I'd had issues installing it on my previous machine) and it all went well but it won't recognise my Mbox 2 Pro and since I am still using Pro Tools 8 (which requires hardware to be connected at all times) it won't even start up
I have followed the steps where I do some stuff in the Mbox 2 Pro firmware folder; which failed. then I installed the drivers on a PC and connected it which seemed to work (the light on it stayed solid rather than flashing when it was plugged in) but when I went back to my MBP it still wasn't working so I did some more skimming of the Avid website and found this article:
http://avid.custkb.com/avid/app/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=207933
surely this cant be right, is there any way around it, the only FW drives I have are an 800 drive and a 400 drive with no chain out

So, all you have is multiple versions of a single?
Anyway, I went and downloaded the original version on Itunes, and it sounds pretty trippin' ;)

Why not just pay the $18.00 and get it over with? Honestly, $18.00 isn't bad at all. It's really nothing.
Because that $18 becomes $25 in the future...and on and on it goes.
It's a purely profit move by all the cell phone carriers especially if you order online and get zero help "setting up" you phone.
Tmobile USA is even worst. $35 for upgrade fees.
What exactly are they doing to justify this upgrade fee?
That being said they stopped waiving my upgrade fees after 2009.

I just bought a western digital for the exact computer you are talking about and it's working just fine. I thnk it was $60. at best buy. It's 320gigs.
I mentioned this in another thread, but I did the same thing.
Got a WD 7200rpm 320GB for about $60 on NewEgg. It's very easy to replace the drive.

The big problem (other than all the $$ this could have made him) is that he will likely find it very hard to ever get proper credit for the image in the eyes of the world, since the proverbial "horse has left the barn" syndrome, and since it has already been credited to other photographers and designers in other countries, who have sold it as if it were theirs. Chances are few photographers will ever experience one, or several of their images having this much commercial and mass appeal, and doubtful he will again, so not getting any recognition for his images must be a huge mixed blessing.
This video/film will certainly help, since that's how I learned of the story, but it will probably be very difficult for his name to ever be associated with the iconic images, except in fairly small, informed circles. Most famous pictures that are easily recognizable are generally associated with the photographer who made them -- in this case, that would take one hell of a major publicity campaign, since it's being treated like public domain work. At least this youtube video is a start...

I may be wrong but i thought that i heard or read somewhere that it is cheaper to upgrade from the next recent OS (ex. Leopard > Snow Leopard or Snow Leopard > Lion) rather than skipping one (ex. Leopard > Lion).
The cheap Leopard to Snow Leopard update is actually the first time this has been the case. We don't yet know if it is a new strategy from Apple or just a one time thing because Snow Leopard didn't sport that many new features.
My recommendation is "Wait and see".
Ask one of your friends if you can borrow their snow leopard disc. Otherwise, just wait until Lion this summer. I have the beta, and it's a pretty nice upgrade.
If the OP had intended to obtain it illegally I don't think the thread would've been posted at all. ;)
