Before i go buy a new controller...

I want to cover all the bases first to make sure it is dead.
System: Apple dual 2GHz G5 xserve, server 10.5.4, FC card says 'intraserver,fc' (Apple BTO FC card)
RAID: older HSSDC2 xServe RAID firmware 1.5.1/1.51c
here's what's up, AFP freaked out and locked up while moving files about on the RAID in question. AFP shut down and ended up needing to restart the server. Apon restart all was happy again except the Array on the upper controller did not show up on the desktop lower controller array did and is working fine.
Open RAID admin and it says all is peachy (except ethernet, because I only have one hooked up, upper controller) Nothing in disk utility, peak around back Green link lights on the raid no light on the FC card (lights up orange when nothing is connected) So I started it verifying the parity data...
It was than I decided to open up system profiler. it claims the RAID is not linked(lower controller does show it's linked) and shows 'SCSI Target Device @ 0' with the upper controller's HEX node and port names but does not show the Manuf/model/rev info like the lower controller shows.
Next I tried it on another xServe with it's own FC card (G4 we bought with the RAID in the first place, it's running server 10.4) Same thing happens, RAID admin shows a good link but system profiler says no link but shows the node/port name etc.
anything else I should try? (keeping in mind it is still verifying right now and I was in the midst of doing my backups when it pooped out. (I have other back ups of the important stuff just have to redo a few days of processing files into JPGs all over again ) I'd rather not do anything that might wipe out the data
Forgot to add, I can still buy controllers for this, right?

it works again, but if i push it (lots of file movement) it'll stop working and lock up the server. requiring a restart of the RAID and server...

Buying A New Controller

Hello
Not sure if I have put this in right place so if I havent please let me know. At launch I bought 2 controllers for my PS4. This is so that I have a backup if one broke. However now I am now having the same issue with the left analogue stick. When moving it left it will also move upwards and moving it right it also moves me downwards. This is a pain in all games I play especially the fact that the rubber on the left stick have worn away on both controllers making it painful after long sessions to my thumb. This has put me off buying another official pad as the same issue has occured to me twice. What I came here to ask was is there any good unofficial ps4 controllers that are better than the official ones? If so could you please direct me towards ones in which are worth my money.
Thank you if you are willing to help.

I had launch day PS4 so controller was out of warranty but they still replaced my controller. Only takes about two weeks as well.

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I received LR 5 for Christmas but have not downloaded it yet on my computer. I have had LR 3 for about 4 years. I am due to buy a new computer soon but need to know how many licenses/downloads I will get before downloading LR 5 on my current computer. I may also purchase a laptop in the next year so that would require 3 licenses altogether (current iMac, future iMac, future macbook).

You have one license.
You can download and install it on an infinite number of computers, as long as it is only installed on two of your computers at any one time, and in use on only one computer at any given time.
So in your case, current iMac, that's would mean its installed on one computer, no problem. Future iMac and future MacBook ... so if you uninstall from current iMac and install on Future iMac and future MacBook, it's now installed on two computers at a time, no problem, as long as you're not using Lightroom on both simultaneously. And if after that, you got two new computers and uninstalled Lightroom from the previous two, you're still good, it's only installed on two computers at any one time.

Hi Jacob...
A $1.00 credit or an authorization hold ...
The $1.00 charge is just an "authorization hold" > iTunes Store & Mac App Store: About credit-card authorization holds that will be credited back to your account usually within 24 to 48 hours.

I want to reinstall CS4 as it has been doing some strange things regarding printing, etc. However, when I did this before, it created a major problem and I ended up buying a new computer because no one could figure out why it kept hanging up during the installation. Hours on the phone, no results. I'm scared to do it on this computer. Should I try? Not even the Adobe support could get it resolved. I believe it was somehow reading a product number that could not be deleted or something, and nothing worked.

Hello, as an addition:
In your case I would download a really new trial version of your program(s) in question and change it/them into a "real" version later, BUT because you said, that you "re-installed" already, so it will become a little bit more complicated. It would be necessary that you have to use "Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool" as Keith wrote.
Here an advice for that (The order varies depending on your individual needs. Please read all my proposals first, so you can better choose the first step:)
1. Maybe you have to activate/deactivate, so please have a look there:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html
2. Sometimes, we know in the meantime, the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
3. Be careful with (de)installing aso. by (de)installing by your own resources. As much as I regret it and as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
I quote: Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
4. If necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and if "open" please use the chat, I for may part - as it seems unlike you - had the best experiences. I quote from Adobe's employee Preran: The chat button is activated as soon as there is an agent available to help.

It's too late for that. Maybe you should consider setting up your next iPhone to backup to iCloud... it happens automatically without user intervention once it's set up. All that's required is a power source for the phone and a WiFi internet connection.

What is the difference between the new 13" MacBook Pros and the previous version of the 13" MacBook Pro? I purchased an "old" one from Best Buy the day before the announcement of the new models.

Need Photoshop advice before buying a new computer

Hi Folks ....
My computer is 6 years old. I'm starting to get the "blue screen of death" periodically so I am buying a new computer.
I currently own Photoshop CS2.
Here are my options.
I can buy a new computer and make sure I have Windows 7 Ultimate so I can use CS2 on it (in XP mode).
Or I can buy a new computer without Windows 7 Ultimate and upgrade to CS5.
My real question is, when I buy a new computer, is it okay for it to have integrated graphics?
Will Photoshop run okay on ingrated graphics, or should a buy a machine that comes with a graphics card installed?
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards and many thanks,
Mark

That's ggod news that I can run CS2 on Windows 7.
Yes, it will be a desktop PC so I will make sure I configure my new PC with a graphics card.
Thank you.

There is no way around the activation lock. You apparently decided to use the phone with someone else's ID set up for an iCloud (and find my iPhone) account before updating. Since Find My iPhone was active, updating to iOS 7 has automatically turned on the activation lock. If you do not have the Apple ID and password that were previously used, then the phone is now useless. You can't activate it without that informaion.
Talk to whoever you bought the phone from if you can. If you can't, buy a new phone.

Any opinions on if I should repair my old powerbook or just buy a new one?

Alright, here's the situation.
I have a Tipowerbook 867 (upgraded to 512 ram) that's a bit over two and a half years old. Over this two plus year period, I have used this powerbook quite a lot, pretty much every single day for several hours at a minimum. Well, the other day when I was picking it up off a chair, it half slipped out of my hand, and before I could catch it the left hinge hit the floor pretty good, and the little part of the hinge that goes up into the display is now pulled out, and the hinge does not rotate. This also exacerbated some small stress cracks in the light grey outer case of the bottom part right beneath the same hinge. Apple gave me a quote of about 600 dollars to fix it. I also plan to call around to some third party places to see if they can do it cheaper, but do not expect it to be less then 3-400 to get it fixed. If I did get it fixed, I would also want to buy a new battery as well (a cost of around $120), as the one I have currently is at 581 cycles, and does not last very long any more. This computer also has little things wrong that don't bother me overly much, but I still notice from time to time, like 2 or 3 little scratches on the screen and one longer one, plus it seems to have gained a dead pixel or two recently.
Now, the decision I'm trying to make is whether it would be better to get this one repaired, or whether to just try and sell it for whatever it gets (a couple hundred dollars plus, I figure?), and buy one of the new 1.67ghz modals for $1899 (including apple care)taxa gig of ram.
If I got the current one repaired, I could see it lasting another 6 months or year, but probably not longer then that. The advantages I see in the new one are:
Double the processor speed,
Quadruple the graphics card memory,
Triple the ram (I sometimes feel like this one has too little, but don't want to put more in it cause I'd have to trash one of the sticks in it, which reduces the net gain quite a bit, so I figure I'll just stick another gig in the new one, if I get it)
the bigger screen res (I use the entire screen most of the time currently, and I have good eyesight, so I see this as a good thing)
The larger HD (not a big deal, but I have been running into the upper limit of this one from time to time, but not without crap I can delete to free up space)
The stuff like the firewire 800 port, usb 2.0 port, and airport extreme card I see as nice, but not a real big deal to me, as I probably wouldn't get much use out of them in the near future.
The two finger scrolling thing might be helpful, but I use a little shareware program called sidetrack currently, which gives me similar results.
The powerbooks were updated recently, and so will probably remain current a little bit longer.
It seems like a decent time in regard to the intel transition, since most (or at least some) of the bugs and incompatibilities will probably be worked out by the time I need to buy a new one.
So, I see lots of pluses to getting a new one, but am not sure if there are 13 or 14 hundred dollars worth of plusses.
If I do get a new computer, it will definitely be a powerbook, because I love being able to spend most of my time on the computer from my bed, and also being able to go upstairs and sit next to my dad on the couch and surf the web from there, and an ibook wouldn't do it for me, since I use the entire screen currently for various programs.
The programs that I use most frequently are things like safari, ichat, mail, word, etc, but I do acquire a penchant for game playing from time to time, and suspect that this might make a resurgence if I did buy a new one--it would be nice to be able to play something like America's Army or UT2k4 with an actually playable frame rate (I don't even really care about the quality of the graphics, as long as it's playable).
I also have considered trying out things like 3d modeling and messing about with imovie to see what I came up with, but am not sure how much those would benefit from the new computer.
I am currently a freshman at a local junior college, and think it's fairly likely that I'll transfer to a four year collage down the road in 2-3 years.
So basically, my decision comes down to this: Do I repair this one, and hope it lasts 6-12 months more, at which point I probably buy the current 15" powerbook, or do I spring for the new one now, and hope it serves my needs for the next 3 or so years down the road.
I'm sort of drawn to the new one, but also can't see anything terribly wrong with this one, and think that it might serve the majority of my needs (but possibly fewer of my wants) for a year or so to come.
The money is not a huge issue to me, I'll have to pay it sometime, and I was already planning to try to get a side job refereeing fencing tournaments for a bit of extra cash.
The way I lean on this decision depends on when you ask me, it varies from really deciding that I'd like and enjoy the new one to feeling like it would be kind of silly and it would be better to wait, but not liking having to repair this one to gain back what I already had.
Anybody have any helpful suggestions or comments that might help to tip me one direction or the other?
-Larry
P.S. Thanks for reading my somewhat long winded post, I'm the kind of person who really likes trying to quantify everything I can, and so I did.

Ok.
For starters, there is a Titanium thread, where you can get some more help, but my main Mac is a Ti, so let's get to it.
the hinge does not rotate
This is common on older TiBooks. I pray everytime I open mine.
to be less then 3-400 to get it fixed
Seems about right.
sell it for whatever it gets
Ebay is the place to go for current value on older technology. You will get the best price there as well. Look around eBay for similar models, with hinge damage like yours.
Frankly, the new Powerbooks are really nice. My roomate has one, and they are much studier than these TiBooks. You will not be disappointed. I would wait until MacExpo the 2nd week of January to see what Apple has to pull out of their hat as far as possible Powerbook or iBook options. No one knows for sure what--if any--new products will be released in the near future.
Larry, what do you do on the Mac? What do you need from it? You can pick up an iBook for as little as $999. You can also look online at the Apple Store refurbs (A link on the Apple Store site will take you there) for cheaper models.
I think your Ti has seen a good life... I vote for moving on.

Should I buy a new Macbook pro?

So, I've had a 15" macbook pro, (mid 2010) and it has served me well... The hard drive failed, which i got repaired, then the battery has just done that thing where it swells up like a beach ball...
Here's my dilemma:
I don't know if i can be bothered to spend the money to replace the battery, or if its worth me just buying a new one...
i know someone will say "waste of time, just get it repaired" but frankly this laptop can't really run ANYTHING decently any more...
So here's the big question: Should i just go ahead and buy the current Top Spec 15 inch macbook pro, or do i wait for the new models that come out later this year?
Will i even notice a difference?
I mainly use the computer for general browsing, video editing, audio editing and a lot of gaming... with that in mind, does anyone have any suggestions?
is it even worth waiting?? will there really be an enormous jump in performance in the new models that i simply cant live without?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Should I buy a new Macbook Pro 13 inch or Macbook Air 13 inch?

Hi,
I was wondering if I should buy the new Macbook pro 13 inch, or keep my old 2010 1.4 C2D Macbook Air. I am not satisfied with the tiny 64GB SSD that my current Macbook Air has, because just a few weeks after I had done a clean reinstall of OSX Lion, the whole disk almost filled up. The one thing I do like about the Macbook Air, however is the speed of the SSD. Its really quick, and it boots in under 20 seconds. The Air didn't have many performance issues (other than overheating like crazy after playing a few graphics-intensive games).
If I were to buy a new Mac, my price range would be from $1200-$1500. I plan to use Garageband/iMovie frequently for making Youtube videos/school projects, and store a large music library. I also plan to do some moderate gaming and run Windows 7 in Bootcamp/Parallels. I don't plan to take it around much, but I don't want to have to weigh down my backpack in case I have to. My two options now would be the new Macbook Pro 13 inch or the new Macbook Air 13 inch. Could anyone give me a suggestion of which computer to buy?
Thanks!

I went through this same thing when I purchased my first Mac 3 days ago, also between the 13 inch MBA and MBP. I ended up deicding with the 13inch MBP, here's why:
1. More hard drive space, yes it may not be an SSD but more space is more space. I have also heard about people taking out the disc drive and adding an SSD in its place, so there would be an option.
2. The disc drive, I rarely do use it but just in case it's there and easier than carrying around an external.
3. Upgradability, I plan on keeping this Mac for a while because I spent so much on it. On a MBP I can upgrade the internal parts such as the hard drive and RAM. On a MBA everything is soldered together so what you buy is what you stick with.
4. Ethernet port, this is one that could be gotten around by an adapter but I still took it into consideration. Not everywhere has wifi yet including my work where every computer is hard wired.
5. Bootcamp, as well I plan to run Windows 7 on mine and Windows 7 takes a good amount of space so this is another spot where the larger hard drive of the MBP comes in handy. You could always have an external hard drive and run Windows 7 off of that on an Air but then you would have to have it always plugged in when you wanted to run Windows 7.
About me, I am a student so I had a lot to think about and read a lot of reviews online before I decided on my MBP but I am glad I decided on this over an Air. It may be a few pounds heavier also but in the long run for me I think the Pro will be better, I do plan on adding more RAM in the future as software becomes more memory intensive. With you're pricerange being 1200-1500 the 13inch MBP with the i7 processor may be one to look at. From Apple with their student discount, if you are one, you get $100 of plus a $100 giftcard. At BestBuy (where I got mine) the price of the i7 13inch MBP is 1,424.99 and if you're a student you get $100 off but no giftcard. I got the i5 13inch MBP because I don't need an i7.
In the end it all comes down to what works for you, but I hope I was able to help you some.

I have an iPhone 5 from India. I am going to USA for studying. Can I use the same iPhone over there or I will have to buy a new one?

I have an iPhone 5 from India. I am going to USA for studying. Can I use the same iPhone over there or I will have to buy a new one?

If officially unlocked, you can purchase a sim from one of the two nationwide GSM carriers, AT&T or T-Mobile. However, AFAIK, none of the carriers in India offer unlocking for the iPhone. Thus, if your phone is carrier locked, the only way it will work in the US is roaming...that would cost a fortune.
So, if you have a carrier locked iPhone, leave it home or sell it before you come to the US, then purchase an officially unlocked iPhone, from Apple, when you get to the US. You'll be able to use that phone in India when you go back.

Before i go buy a new controller...
