Anyone flashed riplock off their Optiarc AD-5680H

Have just invested in an expensive new top of range iMac 27" i7 SSD which seems to be hopelessly slow for ripping or reading DVDs.
Very annoyed - my old G5 was quicker...
I'm assuming the iMac has RipLock on the Optiarc AD-5680H drive.
Anyone removed this successfully? Using BinFlash?
If so, some guidance would be much appreciated: also any downsides - like excessive noise etc?
Thanks!

What kind of DVDs are you referring to? If you are trying to rip commercial DVDs, we are not allowed to discuss this type of thing per the terms of use:

+2. Do not submit software or descriptions of processes that break or otherwise *‘work around’ digital rights management software or hardware. This includes conversations about ‘ripping’* DVDs or working around FairPlay software used on the iTunes Store.+
In addition, I would not use anything of this nature other than what Apple supplies because I do appreciate having a valid warranty.
I hate when the moderators lock up threads about rippings DVDs. It is not illegal, and it is not a work-around. Sure, it's illegal if you don't own the DVD, but if you own if you have every right to make a backup for your own personal use.
I came across this because I'm looking to buy a blu ray player and someone mentioned riplock and it rips his blu rays to his server much faster... Anyway, good luck.

HT1379 my internet connection is incredibly slow - I know it is not the fault of the modem as other devices are fast. This article was suggested to me as a solution. I think they were just trying to get me off their back. Anyone else experience this?

If Safari is getting very slow:
(Presumably you regularly empty your Safari cache by deleting the following file:
Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/cache.db
and clear your History)
Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security, (including anti-phishing and redirects) (Full information about Open DNS is here: http://www.opendns.com/home-solutions ) and further independent information can be read here:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57338784-263/free-dnscrypt-tool-enhances-ma c-web-security/?tag=mncol;txt
and here:
http://www.macworld.com/article/1146064/troubleshootdns.html?t=234
If you are using a single computer: Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2296
If your computer is part of a network:please refer to this page: http://www.opendns.com/start/best_practices/#your_network and follow the advice given.
If you use a Router, make sure it has the latest firmware installed.
One reason for a slowness in page loading may be the 'DNS Pre-fetching' feature of Safari 5.x as is described here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3408?viewlocale=en_US
You can cancel DNS pre-fetching by going to Terminal and typing:
defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false
You have to restart Safari for it to take effect.
If Safari seems to hang for ages:
If you have a lot of tabs open and/or a lot of pages running Flash, Safari can sometimes 'hang', requiring a restart of Safari. This can often be inconvenient, and as it is rarely Safari itself that is hanging but merely one of its plug-ins, usually Flash, there is a way using Terminal to restart the plug-ins (without restarting Safari and losing your tabs) by quitting the WebPluginHost process:
Open the Terminal from the Utilities folder in /Applications and type
killall -9 WebKitPluginHost
Note that this command kills all Safari plug-ins, not just Flash. All plug-ins should start back up when you reload the page.
Then go back to Safari and refresh any pages that were using the Flash plug-in. This also fixes the Beachball of Death. Try this whenever Safari gets slow or freezes. The later versions of Flash 10.1 onwards appear to have improved the situation somewhat, but haven't completed eliminated it.
For this and other reasons Apple switched their websites to HTML5 in January 2011:

Has anyone experienced some of their downloaded music files 'clipping' off before the end of the songs. I have over 3000 songs and just started experiencing approx 1 in 20 songs doing this

I have a significant number of my music files that are clipping up to a minute off their songs. I have approximately 3500 songs and began experiencing issues with 1 in 20 files.
I am operating with Win XP. Have had I Tunes for several years and never had this issue before.

Has anyone had to abandon their current voice plan when activating iphone?

Has anyone had to change their current voice plan when activating the iphone? I want to get the iphone, but the restrictions are killing me. I can't apply my 24% business discount, no MMS capabilities, no video and the ATT rep told me that I would have to change my current voice plan. The voice plan is the biggest issue. I can live with the others.
I current have a family share plan with 850 anytime minutes (unlimited nights and weekends and M2M) for $59.99/month. This plan is way better than anything ATT is currently offering. Has anyone had to deal with this?

I was told when I bought the phone from the Rep at the AT&T store that I would get a 15% discount off my bill for work.. knowing she sold me an iPhone. Emails have went back and forth since October where she said I had to wait a couple of montsh for it process. After calling AT&T customer service and asking them why that my discount column on the bill shows 0.00 and going to the store I bought it and talking to another rep, they both said it doesn't apply to iPhone accounts. After sending another email to the original rep, she goes back on her word and confirms it's not happening. Thank God its a cool phone, otherwise I'd hang up AT&T over that $15/mo I've been missing out on.

Flash goes off when receiving texts

Another thing I have noticed - sometimes when I receive a text, the camera flash goes off
Anyone else have this issue?
Martinfrommaldon

@martin,
The LED-on-message is a feature that can be enabled/disabled in Settings/General/Accessibility.
However, if you don't have this feature enabled, there's a bug in your phone...
This is the feature description, taken from the latest iPhone User Guide:
If you can’t hear the sounds that announce incoming calls and other alerts, you can have iPhone flash its LED (next to the camera lens on the back of the iPhone). This works only when iPhone is locked or asleep. Available for iPhone 4 or later.
Turn on LED Flash for Alerts: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > LED Flash for Alerts.

Flash is off my monitor.

I've just discovered that Flash is off my screen when not in
maximized mode. I tried restarting Flash while holding
Cntl+Shift+Alt, but it doesn't reset the prefs. Also tried
resetting the workspace and RMB on the app in the Windoze Menu Bar
and selecting "move".
Anyone know a fix or how to reset the Flash .ini or prefs?
Thanks.

I am having the same problem, but none of these solutions
have worked for me. I'v tried cascading the window, Al-+Space+M,
changing monitors, disabling the secondary monitor, everything.
Every other window responds to these methods, but Flash is immune.
This all started when I switched my secondary monitor (A
cintiq) from one side of the main screen to the other. Flash opens
on the main monitor, maximized, but when I his "Restore" the window
can be briefly glimpsed flying down beyond the boundries of the
second monitor. This is only visible for a single frame, implying
that the window is traveling some distance into virtual space.
Please help. Is there a file somewhere that stroes this
information? Flash is of very little use to me if I can't get it
onto the contiq.

What sustain pedal - exact make, model, type (momentary) is anyone using successfully on their controller? (I'm using m-audio)

what sustain pedal - exact make, model, type (momentary?) is anyone using successfully on their keyboard
? (I'm using m-audio controller)

I took an old Guitar cable, snipped off one plug, connected strand one to a metal plate and strand two to the metal part of a weighted lever. Plug it into the sustain port of my midikeybs. Press the lever onto the metal plate: sustain on. Let go: sustain off.
Even simpler: take a cable with a (mono) plug at on end and the naked two strands (mantel & core) on the other side. If you connect the two strands: sustain! if you disconnect the strands: sustain off.
What I am trying to say is: a sustain pedal is as simple as a doorbel button: on or off. So all that "the maker" can provide is "built quality", but really, any improvised simple momentary contact switch will do. In other words: there's really NO electronics to it, and if it is sold as a MIDI sustain pedal, it 'll work. But a doorbell button connected to jack cable will also work, so make and model (for a pure sustain-only pedal) are irrelevant.

Has anyone tried to have their glass screen repaired on the ipod touch

I've gotten a lot of results searching for repair on the glass screen, even sites that have kits for doing it yourself, has anyone tried to have their screen repaired this way? I know about the trade in offers, but I've seen repairs as low as $25.

Some users posted that they did it themselves successfully.
Some tried themselves and ended up not working at all afterwards.
Some had a local third-party do it and it did not work satisfactorily afer it was returned.

Has anyone had issues with their itunes not coming up?

Has anyone had issues with their itunes not coming up? I keep getting error message 13014. I just bought a new classic ipod and am not sure if this is the problem.

Hi
Your new iPod has certain operating system requirements. Does your iMac meet those requirements?
http://www.apple.com/ipodclassic/specs.html
3rd Column on the right hand side, about a 3rd of the way down. To find out which version of iTunes you have, launch it and select "About iTunes" from the iTunes menu.

Why is Character Palette flashing on & off on my screen?

When working in Pages, suddenly the Character Palette became non-functioning...I saved my document, then closed the program, but the non-functioning Character Palette continued to show. I then tried a re-boot-shut down the computer & restarted it. It then froze once it opened & didn't show any docking station or other menu items---rebooting 3 times continued this freeze. I then shut down, unplugged & restarted. This time the docking station & everything else showed up, but for some reason the Character Palette flashed on & off-a completely blank window with just the title...it's still flashing on & off randomly! Do I attempt a reboot again? What's the bug? I'm frustrated!!

Hello Jerrene,
welcome to the Pages Discussions. This problem was mentioned in some threads and this is what helped before:
Try to delete the "com.apple.CharPaletteCache.plist" at "<YourHDName>/Users/<YourAccount>/Library/Caches/"? And the "com.apple.CharPaletteServer.plist" at "<YourHDName>/Users/<YourAccount>/Library/Preferences".
Frank.

How do i find previous owner of iphone 5 so they can take the phone i bought off craigslist and take it off their account so i can use it.

how do i find previous owner of iphone 5 so they can take the phone i bought off craigslist and take it off their account so i can use it.

The same way you found them to buy it - use whatever means you
used to accomplish the purchase on craigslist.
Apple cannot/will not give you the information about any previous
owner(s) of the iPhone.
When/if you do contact them, here is what the previous owner needs
to do:
Backup the device to iTunes or iCloud, if desired: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Settings > Messages > iMessage > Off
Settings > FaceTime > Off
Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (this only unregisters and deletes it off the iPhone)
Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings

HT1689 Has anyone had trouble opening their nook and updating it?

Has anyone having trouble updating their nook or even going into it to read any of their books?

If it's getting hot you need to replace it, As a suggestion I would take it later this morning to your local Verizon Corporate and have them look at it and see if they can DOA it, since the screen is bad and it is getting hot it's considered a Manufacturing issue and since the phone carries a 1 year warranty Hopefully they can give you another Brand new one I'm not going to Guarantee they will they may order you a Certified Good as new one but hopefully the Rep or Manager of the store will understands it's out of your control the phones screen went dead and the phone gets hot,
So that is what I'd do get some sleep and Later in the morning or afternoon if you can Visit your local store and see what they can do for ya and Let me know on this thread.. I wish ya good luck.. b33

Has anyone tried to connect their xbox?

Has anyone tired to connect their xbox using the wireless Networking Adapter? Every time I try, it tells me that it is not connected. Anyone have any suggestions?

I believe there is no issue connecting the Xbox 360 via Wired Ethernet (either an ethernet cable directly from Xbox 360 to TC, or via a wired Ethernet bridge). The problem is, as you said, when trying to connect wirelessly via the Xbox 360 Wireless USB adaptor.
Did Apple say anything more about the fix? Timescales? I'm itching to get a Time Capsule, but not until this issue is fixed.
Also, if I set the TC to 802.11n with backwards compatibilty (forget the exact option), will this slow the entire network down if I have a mixture of 802.11n and 802.11g devices connecting to it? I read somewhere that it will only slow the network down whilst the actual devices in question are transmitting. Is this correct?
