Anyone own the DC/Incase Skatebag?

Looking for a new laptop backpack - does anyone own (and would like to make comments on) the DC/Incase Skatebag that is available in the Apple Store online? And for anyone in the US, do you know if the Apple Retail Stores have them in stock? (I will be visiting PA in 2 weeks). I don't skate, but it looks like a nice bag TIA.

Hey,
I don't know about the DC/Incase skatebag, but thought i would let you know about the case i've got cause it's great. It's a STM case that i bought from our local apple store, and it literally just holds the laptop, and is designed to look after the laptop while it is being transported in a backpack. It's got "wetsuity/memoryfoam" style covering and is nice and compact. i picked mine up for about A$40.00 and haven't looked back!
anyways, hope that helps!
cheers,
sam

Does anyone own the Canon HG10 HD camera? Have you imported movies? And...

what program are you importing them with?
IMOVIE 08 will do it, except the compression gets beat up pretty good.
I'm reading I need either FCP 6 or FCE 4... is that the deal?
Thanks for your time

I have just encountered a similar problem, and moving the files back onto my iPod isn't even an option since I don't have the files on my PC (why would I need them on both?) For me, the videos show up...but they're in the wrong folder!! All my videos are in the "music" folder, along with my songs. Seriously.
It's so frustrating. When I first saw the issue, I thought it would be a quick fix: I'd just hook up my iPod to my computer and drag the files form "music" to "movies," right? Right. Here I am, 6 hours later, and getting nowhere. Everything is automatic nowadays, so it's impossible to fix anything manually when something goes wrong. As I said, so frustrating.
The little TV icon randomly no longer appears next to my movies, and they all appear in the MUSIC folder of my iPod. This is a HUGE pain in the *** because when I click on "shuffle songs," I get the movies thrown into the playlist! I don't want to listen to movie dialogue while I drive...
ITunes is up to date and my iPod is up to date. Restoring is not an option because I don't have the files on my computer. Clicking on "get info" brings up the same menus I get when I "get info" a music file. There is no "video" tab.
I'm just so frustrated. Why the **** can't I just drag the files into the correct directory? God, I hate iTunes. In making all the everyday stuff so simple, they've made the exceptional stuff exceedingly difficult

Took delivery of imac yesterday with pre-installed Pages, Numbers and Keynote. App store says they need updating but won't let me because I've never owned the major version of the software. I have paid like anyone else, so why can't I update?

You must be signed into the Apple Store with your Apple ID or it won't work.

I've stuck with Entourage way too long. Now I don't dare install the Mavericks OS because all my Entourage files will go away. And my iMac won't open Mac Mail (probably because I've never opened it in the 5 - 6 years I've owned the Mac.) Any suggestions?

If you are wondering why you are not getting any responses, it is because you have vented a complaint without any details that make any sense or give anyone something to work on.
If you want help, I suggest actually detailing what has happened, with versions of software etc. Anything that would let us assist.
As a start I am guessing that you have not really got the hang of "How it all works". Firstly download the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf from under the Help menu. Read that and view the Video Tutorials in the same place. A good addition would be the iWork 09 Missing manual book and something to help you learn how to use your Mac.
If there are specific tasks you need help with:

Can anyone clarify the meaning of Cruise Ship data?

Can anyone clarify the meaning of Cruise Ship data? I recently asked for it on my account, but when I returned from my cruise I was charged all sorts of Global Roaming data charges. No Cruise Ship usage was listed on my bill even though I only used it while at sea (tethering my PC).
The rep I spoke with said that the billing codes used for Cruise Ship Data and Global Data are the same, and Global Data was how it was listed on my bill. What would the distinction be, then? I assumed that Cruise Ship data would use the cruise ship's towers, but it appears that you have to worry about what country you are sailing near while at sea and whether they subscribe. Anyone have any light to shed on this?
Thanks!
P.S. The service is even slower than what the cruise ship offers for $.55/minute, and the connection is not reliable. I will not be using this feature again, and cannot in good conscience recommend it.

Thanks so much for asking, Rayray_10803. I would be happy to clarify roaming charges.
Wireless Cruise Ship Service allows Verizon Wireless customers to make and receive voice calls while at sea using their own mobile phone and mobile telephone number.
This service exists on various cruise lines, through an agreement with Wireless Maritime Services (WMS), Maritime Communications Partners (MCP) and Sea Mobile to offer an advanced network on board various cruise ships for Verizon Wireless.
For this reason, rates on cruise ships are different than they are when you visit the country without using the towers on the ship.

Has anyone had the Network time and date error with Apple TV when traveling?

Jasion,
Maybe a bit beside the question, but it is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky, at least for a while, but it is better to be safe than sorry.
In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:

Anyone know the name of this desktop customization software?

Hi guys,
Some time ago now I saw an application somewhere that allows you to customize your desktop (or wallpaper, depending on what you call it) in more advanced ways than OS X normally allows.
It allowed you to put images of your own on it; not in the normal way (I am well aware of how to do that with System Preferences) but more like you might be able to do on a cork board. So you could put several images up at once, rotate them, re-size them, have them overlapping etc. You could also add text to the screen, and I think draw shapes with the cursor. I'm also pretty sure the software allowed you to create more than one desktop at any one time.
Thing is, I can't remember what this app is called, and even though I'm fairly good at searching the net, all the words I can think of to find this are way too general. I really need this app for something quite important. Does anyone know the name of it?
Please only answer if you have a pretty good idea of what it is, not just to say "I don't know." Sorry, it's just I've had alot of that in the past. Any good answers I will be very grateful for and will be sure to be given points. Thanks!

Anyone ordered the new macbook in the new UK and received it sooner than the 4-6 weeks predicted?

Anyone ordered the new macbook in the new UK and received it sooner than the 4-6 weeks predicted?

Hi Andy,
The delivery time of 4 to 6 weeks in UK is just the rough estimate and indicates that it will be at the most 4 - 6 weeks incase of any shipping and delivery issues.
You will definitely receive your new macbook much before the mentioned date.
The Gold edition is relatively more fancier and exclusive in looks so currently there are high demands compared to the space grey and regular silver variant. Rest assured.....
Hope this helps......

Has anyone used the mackeeper software?

Has anyone used the mackeeper software?

Short answer: I don't recommend it, but it's not "a scam" or malware, per se. If you use it, you may have some real performance issues.
Me: I was an actual MacKeeper user (paid version) for about two years. What follows is my experience and conclusions. I am not a paid reviewer, nor tech professional. I am an educator with about 15 years of experience using Macs. I am what most people would call a "prosumer," in that I know a good deal about my systerm, but am not a techie, anti-utility software zealot, etc. I have no affiliation with Zeobit (manufacturer of MacKeeper) nor any of its competitors.
I bought MacKeeper in 2011, and then upgraded last year. I used it to remove junk files and duplicates, and experimented with the anti-virus software. I didn't use most of the other features.
The problem: I am running a 2009 15" Macbook Pro 2.8GHZ Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM, 512GB HDD. Over the past year, it has been having major performance issues. Slowdowns, hangups, applications quitting and more were all becoming the norm. I deleted duplicate files and ran MacKeeper a few times a month. I also ran permissions repairs regularly (disk utility). I looked for the cause of the slowdowns everywhere, from too many user accounts being open, to resource hogs. I decided that MacKeeper's Anti-Virus software was just taking up too much RAM and CPU, so I disabled it. I continued experiencing slowdowns and started monitoring my available RAM with a freeware app called Memory Clean. It often reported that I had less than 500MB available, even with very light usage, application wise. After "cleaning" memory, I could get my available RAM to about 1.5GB, max. I struggled with these issues for a year or more, and was about ready to concede defeat and buy a new machine. I figured my MBP was over four years old, and perhaps running Mountain Lion and normal wear/tear were just too much.
This morning, I noticed that the biggest resource hog on my system was a process called "MacKeeper Helper." The process relaunches even when it is forced to quit. It was consuming over 100MB of RAM and up to 99 percent of my CPU at times! I also noticed a process called "anti-virus" that also could not be quit, and was consuming over 100MB of RAM itself. I started researching how to kill these processes, and was introduced the the Great Online MacKeeper Controversy. Here is what I learned:
Some in the Mac community have pure hatred for this product (and some hate all like it).
There were numerous user reports of it slowing down systems
Zeobit seemed to be guilty of questionable ethics, particularly in its advertising.
There was no way to stop MacKeeper Helper and Anti-Virus processes from running with deleting the entire application.
I wasn't the only one annoyed by MacKeeper's system pop-ups, trying to sell me something I already bought.
The software got good professional reviews, even from well-respected publications (e.g. MacWorld)
It is often confused with Mac Defender, which WAS malware. They two are not associated.
The Decision: After researching ways of fully uninstalling MacKeeper (and considering whether or not I should), I decided to try the uninstall instructions from the manufacturer. It said that it would remove ALL traces of the application. I also didn't want to get into too much Terminal work and manually deleting things, as some users suggested doing. I followed the process (close app, drag to trash, enter password, click "uninstall"). I then ran a permissions repair and restarted.
The Results: I have been MacKeeper-free for about an hour as I write this. Put simply, my problems appear to be completely solved. MacKeeper Helper and Anti-Virus are gone. Available RAM is now up to 2.75GB. I have experienced no slowdowns or app crashes. Even bootup appeared to be considerably faster. Launching iPhoto with thousands of images now takes a few seconds instead of minutes. Everything feels faster. It's like I have my Mac back! I was ready to admit defeat and dish out another $2500+ that I didn't have. I now think that won't be necessary!
What Should Yo Do? You'll find a lot of controversy out there between professional reviews, ethically dubious paid reviews, Zeobit's own defense through public statements, and Mac users themselves. Some users like it, and swear up and down they are real people. Others are extremely angry and hate the product with the passion of 1,000 burning suns. All I can do is tell you my experience and make the following statement:
The bottom line is that I would not install MacKeeper/buy MacKeeper on my Mac. After investigating my own system's problems (which made iit nearly unusable) and concluding that MacKeeper might be the issue, I uninstalled it. Magically, all my issues went away. So...I report, you decide. Best of luck.

HT1420 I'm getting this error. You can not update this software since you have not owned the major version of this software.

My kids did something to itunes and now I'm getting the error.
You can not update this software since you have not owned the major version of this software. This is the computer that we have always updated our apps on. Does anyone have any ideas for me?

I have the same thing. It looks like it's the store. What is happening is that instead of the store showing you only the updates for the account you are logged into, it shows you the updates for all of your accounts. So if you try & update an app that was purchased with another account, you get that message. This is a pain, as you have to go through the apps individually (update all just gives you an error) , and then log out & into the other account again to get the rest of the updates.

Can anyone compare the fan noise level of the C2D and the G5 imacs?

Anyone owned both? Is the C2D much more quiet?

I'm your huckleberry! G5 rev b went from being pretty quiet except under load,and lately since 10.4.6 and after, the fans started spining a little faster than they use to, thus louder. I didn't mind it. Interstingly I had to unplug it (which I've done to reset the SMU) but I guess never for long enough, now when I plugged it in, it amazingly works like it did at its best, fans didn't speed unless under big load, and then would spin down again. Be that as it may, it wasnever totally quiet. The new one is virtually quiet. Right now I'm encoding video for the last 20 minutes, the back left panal is toasty to the touch the fans are working and you can barely hear it at all. Sounds more like when you here slight moving of air from airconditioning in an office. Thats it for the fans, the quietest I've ever heard on any box I've ever worked on.

Who owns the activation process - Apple or Sprint?

I have a Sprint iPhone 4S with the original SIM card. the only way I've gotten it to activate is through a complete restore via DFU mode (very similar to this discussion in 2012; iPhone 4S US/Sprint unable to activate!)
An incremental update to 8.1.1 makes it ask to activate again :/
I went to my local Sprint store today and they say they can't do anything about it and that I must go to an Apple Store.
I'm trying to avoid getting bounced around here. Who "owns" the activation process? Is it Apple or Sprint?
Who ultimately correct this annoying activation behavior when it activates from a full restore?
I should not that I am not using the phone component of the iPhone and do not have a Sprint account. (for the record, I was a pretty happy Sprint customer back in the 90s... )

Sure a bit irked and just grateful the days of "carrier locked phones" is fading behind us more and more every day (I bought a 2nd hand Verizon 5s and a happy camper on T-Mobile - didn't have to go through any hoops!)

Anyone know the ActiveSync size limit for Sending?

I noticed that I have quite a few Event ID 1008 Warnings on my Exchange server today. All of them are exactly the same and are all for the same user. They occur every 5-10 min. So I have discovered through research that this is caused (at
least in this case) by a message being sent from the mobile device (iPhone in this case) that is to big.
I have run a test on my own device (Droid X) where I attempted to send a message with a 14MB attachment. The exact error is logged at the same time as the other intial error. This is easy enough to fix: you simply need to go to the
Outbox on the phone or device and delete the stuck message.
However, I am now currious where this limit is set and how to find the exact size limit. Through searching no one seems to know, but the limit is deteremined somewhere between 5-10MB. Also, it is not set in Exchange as others like to recommend.
My send connector message size is 50MB and there is no limit set on the ActiveSync policy.
Anyone know the answer to this? Is it an Exchange setting or is it determined by the particular phone/tablet?\
Thanks.
Event 1008 for others reference:
An exception occurred and was handled by Exchange ActiveSync. This may have been caused by an outdated or corrupted Exchange ActiveSync device partnership. This can occur if a user tries to modify the same item from multiple computers. If this is the case,
Exchange ActiveSync will re-create the partnership with the device. Items will be updated at the next synchronization.
URL=/Microsoft-Server-ActiveSync/default.eas?User=USERNAME&DeviceId=ApplC8WFDD8DDDP7&DeviceType=iPhone&Cmd=SendMail&SaveInSent=T
--- Exception start ---
Exception type: System.Web.HttpException
Exception message: Maximum request length exceeded.
Exception level: 0
Exception stack trace: at System.Web.HttpRequest.GetEntireRawContent()
at System.Web.HttpRequest.get_InputStream()
at Microsoft.Exchange.AirSync.Command.get_InputStream()
at Microsoft.Exchange.AirSync.Command.WorkerThread()

Looks like I found the probable location of this size limit. Looking at the web.config file in the
ExchServer\ClientAccess\Sync folder there is an entry for "MaxDocumentDataSize". THe value is currently set at 10240000:
<add key="MaxDocumentDataSize" vaulue ="10240000">
So this is 9.75 MB or there about, which sounds about right. I will try increasing this limit at some point to verify.
Can anyone confirm this?
