it's an external 80 GB hard drive for the mini, and the mini sits on top of it perfectly. do you think this would be a good product to buy if i get a mac mini with only a 40 BG hard drive? thanks and please reply! i'll appreciate it a lot! i promise i will!

Sounds fine to me. However - the price is rather high. Pricegrabber shows the same product for $125-140 along with lower shipping rates.

The 160 GB and 250 GB versions can be had for about the same as this eBay seller wants for a 80 GB version.

  • Can someone tell me if this is a good battery day?

    Have been tweaking my iPhone 4s settings since I got it last Tuesday, and I was just wondering if this is good? Phone was 100% charged when I took it off the charger at about 6 AM PST.
    Texting off and on all day, one twenty second phone call, some web browsing, words with friends, angry birds, some twitter and facebook, a little music to see how the speaker is without headphones on, lots of picture taking with incredibooth and some picture messaging.
    Also, wifi sync - is there a way to turn this off without doing a restore? I can't find it in my settings.
    Any input is greatly appreciated!

  • I have an apple tv 1st generation, and there is a setting for airtunes. can someone tell me what this is and how to use it?

    I have an apple tv 1st generation, and there is a setting for airtunes. can someone tell me what this is and how to use it?

    I've looked at that, but on my PC, "look for remote speakers connected with airtunes" isn't an option.
    The only options I get are "prevent ipods [etc] from syncing automatically" , "warn me when [X %] of the data on this computer will be changed" and "forget all remotes". Its also got a list of backups I have saved, as well as a button to reset sync history.
    When I am playing a song, the "airplay" button isn't even visible.
    I am sure that the apple tv setting is on as well. Is there anything else you can help me with?

  • Most of the time I get The Connection Was Reset. Can someone tell me why this happens?

    When I click on Firefox or when browsing or going from one site to the other I get "The connection was reset" then have to click on Try Again.
    Can someone tell me why this is happening?
    Thank you.
    THE CONNECTION WAS RESET again this morning. I even get this message when I click on the Firefox Icon to get on the net. When for example I download something then it returns me to their site I get The Connection Was Reset. When I uninstall a program and it sends to to their site in order to answer as to why I am uninstalling their program then I get The Connection Was Reset.
    Every time this happens I have to click on Try Again and find this to be annoying.
    This does not happen once or twice a week, it happen ALL THE TIME.
    This morning I went to Safe Mode and followed the instructions on INTERRUPTED OR RESET CONNECTION which tells us what to do but this did not work either.
    Would be great if someone was able to let me know what to do in order to prevent this message appearing all the time.

    Do not know how to delete this reply. I replied instead of editing my question. I have edited the above now.

  • Can someone tell me what this effect is for FCPX

    Can someone tell me what this effect is for FCPX
    Im talking about the "after image" looking effect in the picture

    at first, I would suggest, under Effects/Tiling "Visual echo"
    (Apple added that effect in some update …)
    but on looking closer on your example, it asks for more finesse:
    the shadow arm is keyed over the original ...
    maybe some smart arrangement of layered, processed and delayed green-screening?
    (means, not shot in font of a black bg, to get a clean key of subject...) 
    … would be my shoestring-budget solution
    or, looks like masking, tracking, etc .. maybe tools like coremelt's SliceX could help you.

  • HT4901 My iPad was stolen. It is password protected and I locked it. So far no one has tried to turn it on. I would like to erase the content but am afraid that the "Find it' software would be diabled too. Can someone tell me if this is what happens?

    My iPad was stolen. It is password protected and I locked it. So far no one has tried to turn it on. I would like to erase the content but am afraid that the "Find it' software would be diabled too. Can someone tell me if this is what happens?

    If content is erased, then the ipad will no longer have  the Find My iPhone service turned on, hence can't be tracked.  But the thief will not be able to view your data/apps.  But thieves these days know about the service and can reset the device so that it is no longer tracked, although all data is erased anyway.  They don't care about getting at your data, only about keeping the device to sell or use it as their own.

  • I get an error message on Lynx, can someone tell me what this means?

    When I check my home page on lynx I get what I would expect 2 links to 2 galleries below that the alt text for my logo and the photograph, and the footer info with an e-mail link.  If I click any link I get a message "Bad Request - Your browser sent a request this server could not understand, the request contained invalid characters following the protocol string."  All the links on the site  www.hayhurst-photography.com  do work.  Should this show the next page (there are 42 others each have a table with 21 links + 3).  Can you tell me what this means?  and which are the invalid characters?
    Thanks Chris

    I just tested your pages using Firefox and IE7.  I could click on both Business and Commercial links and venture into the inner pages with no error message showing up at all.  Clicking on any of the thumbnails showed the larger images, again, with no error messages.

  • I have a problem with iphoto (have a mac book pro): the icon in the dock appears with a question mark, and the application is gone!!! Can someone tell what's going on? Yesterday I had the same problem with itunes

    I have a problem with iphoto (have a mac book pro): the icon in the dock appears with a question mark, and the application is gone!!! Can someone tell what's going on? Yesterday I had the same problem with itunes: I downloaded the last version (it's free), but I cannot do the same with iphoto, and more important: I need to know what is happening!!! Please help me!

    Applications should not disappear all by themselves.
    If they are then that coud indicate serious problems with your hard drive.
    Backup everything up as quickly as possible.
    Using Disk Utility verify your system disk.

  • Can anyone tell me what this Time Machine error means? The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features?

    Can anyone tell me what this Time Machine error means? The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features?

    AFP - Apple Filing Protocol
    The Network Attached Storage (NAS) that you are pointing Time Machine at does not have the features needed by Time Machine in order to do its Thing.  Time Machine needs some specific features that are not typically available on generic networked storage devices.
    There are manufactures that support the Mac OS X HFS+ file system formats and implement all the needed AFP protocol packets necessary so that they can be used with Time Machine, but apparently yours does not.
    If you are not using a networked mounted volume for Time Machine, then more information will be needed about your Time Machine setup.

  • Can someone tell m why my iPad 2 doesn't display the YouTube app? I'm so confused. It is a standard app n the original iPad.

    Can someone tell m why my iPad 2 doesn't display the YouTube app? I'm so confused. It is a standard app n the original iPad.

    Well you already know the answer, but it was not included in iOS 6. Google released an YouTube App for the iPad so you can download that in the App Store.

  • Can anyone tell me how they are handling software distribution for the iPad in an enterprise environment?

    Can anyone tell me how they are handling software distribution for the iPad in an enterprise environment?

    The new Business Volume Purchase Program is pretty interesting...it can be used to centrally purchase and distribute paid ( not free) items from the AppStore.  We are getting setup to use it.  You can keep an eye on licenses etc.  You can also use a single centralized form of payment.

  • Please can someone tell me what this panic report means - I get this constantly!

    Hi  Everyone
    I Have a 2012 mac Mini 2.0ghz i7  with 2 x 4gb ram and I keep getting panic reports at random times,  I have  reinstalled the OS and it still keeps happening.  I have removed and swapped each of the memory modules and it seems that  I get the problem if I have the top memory module  occupied(I have swapped the memory over and it still happens) .
    At present I have just the 2nd(bottom)memory slot in use and all's well.  Can anyone tell me if this will mean I wil have to have the motherboard replaced or if its a simle fix? Or if its a common issue withh this model and year?
    I would like to have it fixed but is it worth it?
    The panic report is as follows - thanks for your help (in advance):

    Yes both memory modules work fine - I have swapped them over so its got to be the slot.  Its been like it  since I bougjht it (2nd hand) and the warranty had expired when I got it. 
    It does work fine with 4 GB but i need more memory as I want to use VM Fusion and run windows  as  I plan to study for a microsoft exam to improve my employment oportunities in IT once I get made redundant in the nextfew montths. Alternatively,  I could buy an old windows laptop which may work out cheaper than getting the mac fixed,  or perhaps buy an 8gb memory module and sell my 2x4gb module - decisions, decisions!
    I will take your advice and get apple to check it out and give me a quote.
