Back to the Future Time Machine model for Had drive enclsoure, Time Machine

This is a random thought, and I seriously want to do this, but if you are as big of a *Back to the Future* fan as I am you might take some interest in this topic. I've looked all across the internet and have yet to be able to find a *Back to the Future DeLorean external hard drive, or hard drive enclosure to accompany the Time Machine application in leopard*.
Now, I'm currently trying to find the best way possible to do this...probably going to find a model kit and build it around a hard drive enclosure. I'll have to customize the hard drive light to make the time circuits (The blue bars that illuminate before the DeLorean goes back to or from the future, but it will be worth it.
Has anyone else thought of this idea, or am I just that big of a geek? However, if anyone has seen or built such a device, please let me know cause I'd LOVE to see one in action.

Will there also be a TARDIS model? A Wells model? Even a Peabody WABAC model?
And of course what would we do without the original John Titor unit?

  • Can I access a label inside of an MC and then go back to the main time line

    Here is my current set up.
    I have a labeled section on main time line which has icons of 12 different videos. Each icon acts as a button and brings a user to a labeled section with a FLV Video Playback component impemented to play the corresponding video. These labeled sections are located on the main time.
    This methog makes my main time line very long. Is there a way to make an additional MC which will hold all the video buttons and then have this MC separated into labeled sections.
    In other words can I access a label inside of an MC and then go back to the main time line?
    My present code for accessing the label located on the main timeline is:
    HowTo_maininfo_mc.theArrangement_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, theArrangement_btn_amimated_btnDown);
    function theArrangement_btn_amimated_btnDown(event:MouseEvent):void {
    gotoAndPlay("theArrangement");
    How would it look if my label "theArrangement" would be located inside of an MC?
    Is there any specific code if I want to have a close button located on the label inside of an MC and it needs to fire out to a label located on the main timeline?

    Oh, WOW! It is working perfectly now.
    My mistake was that I was specifiying the var sourceVar:String;
    for every single button. It was not clear to me from the first example that it has to be specified only once.
    I made a small test Flash file and everything works now. It still doesn't work on my big flash file, I guess some other code messes it up and I can' not figure what it is exactly.
    I would like to include the OUTPUT error message in hopes that you can spot right away what a mistake could be:
    VideoError: 1000: Unable to make connection to server or to find FLV on server
              at fl.video::VideoPlayer/stop()
              at fl.video::FLVPlayback/stop()
              at acolyteVideos_fla::mainsite_mc_2/stopF2()[acolyteVideos_fla.mainsite_mc_2::frame484:21]
              at flash.display::MovieClip/gotoAndPlay()
              at acolyteVideos_fla::mainsite_mc_2/onClick_GoBackToHowTo2()[acolyteVideos_fla.mainsite_mc_2 ::frame484:13]
    If there is no immediate cure for it, I will go through code line by line. Since it is working on the test it must be something wrong with my main file.
    Additiona question (please let me know if I should paste it as a new thread)
    I have similar set up with UILoader. Where different buttons set up to bring a user to individual labeled sections with individual UILoader. Should it be arranged in the same way that it is only one loader and "var sourceVar:String;" code is the one which brings up different content for each button?

  • So, I've taken my panasonic printer back to the shop and exchenged it for a Canon MF-4430. Alas... the generic drivers do not make it print. Is it possible to get drivers to make this canon printer work with my lovely Mac Book Pro Snow Leopard, 6.8?

    I could not find a MF-4430 at the Canon site. Are you sure the model is correct? They have a MF4450. The Mac drivers are here:
    http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/imageclass _series/imageclass_mf4450#DriversAndSoftware
    If you are sure you have a MF4430, look around the canon site for the drivers.

  • The time string has a valid format but it corresponds to the future time

    First all, I want to thank richwolf ... without his Woolamaloo.. I don't know if I can every have this to work---> for a person that is not a programmer, that application really helps a lot.
    When I use the debug function in Woolamaloo, it gave me the information about that time string has a valid format but it corresponds to the future time. And, because of that only "all" access is allowed.
    If we can't change the server time setting, is there any way I can modify the script to correct this? I place the modified itunesu (from the apple sample code, shell folder) file to the cgi-bin folder on the server. Any help will be really appreciated thank you all.
    Trouble R.

    First of all, thank you for using Woolamaloo. You are too kind.
    The time token is used to create your signature token ... and you need the signature to have a valid token string. So I can't see a way for you to do what you ask.
    Is there any way you can use the server that you don't control to do authentication only ... and generate the token string on a server whose time you can set?

  • HT204032 Why is Powernap not available for other MB's such as the MBP mid 2010 model for example?

    Why is Powernap not available for other MB's such as the MBP mid 2010 model for example?

    I have a 2010 MBP 6,2 with an aftermarket SSD. My machine gets mail and notifications while asleep, but I do not have any powernap pref box in energy savings under 10.9.1
    I do not have an Apple SSD. I have a Crucial M4-CT512M4SSD2
    Apple did replace my MB last Fall under the video fault problem (for free after 3 years.....thanks Apple), but it stills identifies as a 6,2  Boot ROM  MBP61.0057.B0F
    I wish I could shut off this powernap feature, but have no access to it.

  • Back to the Future III - digital copy not working

    Any ideas on what to do when a digital copy fails?
    Got the 25th Anniversary BluRay pack of all of the Back to the Future films. Contains a digital copy disc for each.
    The first two worked fine. The digital copy for BTTF3 did not.
    Has anyone else encountered this? If so, how did you remedy it?
    Thanks -

    apple wanted a processor family that included versions with reasonable speed and low power consumption to use in laptops etc.
    it probably didn't hurt that the choice they made also makes it easier to support traditional wintel software on macs
    itanium is aimed at servers where power consumption is less of an issue
    if the numbers here are correct then itanium has not been a great success, certainly not one for apple to bet the company on...

    I have changed operator and also changed IOS and did a back up of my old phone in Itunes so i would keep all my contacts etc. Now when i want to get everything back in the phone, Itunes asks me for a password, which i do not have since i did not enter any password when i did the back up. Is there any way I can bypass this password request? Otherwise i have lost all my contacts etc.
    Greatful for help.

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service like Gmail, iCloud, or an Exchange server.
    Have you failed to use the device as designed?

      My iTunes is not able to sync the iPhone 4. I'm using windows 7 32bit. At the first step it gets stuck refelcting backing up the phone then nothing happens for ages. I'm using the latest iTUnes version, does anyone have similar prob??? There are no error codes which appear and the iTUNES just gets hanged, is there a solution?

    Remove the song in question from the sync list and see if the rectifies the problem.
    If it does, then iTunes believes the song no longer exists on your drive and that will need to be corrected.

  • HT5628 Does it work with a macbook (aluminium) 2008 late, even if it isn't said in the desription? Windows 7 also did run, but wasn't in the list of working models for windows 7...

    JK90, I have boot camp on my Mountain Lion late-2008 unibody running 64 bit Windows 8, with a brand new ssd and 8gigs of ram. Although my scenario is officially unsupported, it works great. My 4+ yr old mac is the best PC I've ever owned :-)
    There are a number of complications during and after installation, and you need to do a lot of research to make sure you get it right. I worked long and hard to get everything running just right.
    Even after Windows was installed I had even more trouble with my drivers, and getting especially getting the trackpad to work properly, so I needed to use a regular mouse until I could get the trackpad on.
    Also check out trackpad++, I've been using it for years now, it upgrades the trackpad drivers from apple and makes using Windows much nicer.

    Hi,
    Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds...
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...

    Syncing music via iTunes is only one way: from iTunes to your iPod.  If you need to copy the music from your iPod back to your PC, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to do this.
