Could someone please recommend a replacement battery for my Titanium Powerbook?
My 667 Mhz Titanium powerbook (A1001) is working extremely well since I installed 1) new logic board, 2) Airport card, 3) maxed out the RAM.
I also bought what appeared to be a virtually unused (but nonfunctional) Powerbook from Ebay - no scratches, no paint missing - and moved everything into there.
However I need a new battery since it only runs when it's plugged in, if not the battery only lasts for about 10 minutes.
Does anyone know of a reliable place to get new batteries and do they fit nicely in the Tibook?
Thank you!
Here's another:

A friend bought two PowerBook G3 batteries from that source and they have given excellent service.

Hi - I understand I need to convert AVI and MPEG files for use within IMovie 11. I have one particular file that has a watermark stating "Created with Flip4Mac WMV Demo". Can someone please recommend the best program for a novice? Thanks!
Hi Susan,
It is no simpler converting vobs to mp4 than mpg (mpeg2).
There is *always* a loss of quality converting video from one lossy-compressed format to another, e.g. mpeg2 to mp4.
So, if you want to not lose any quality, then converting vobs to mpeg2 (mpg) is the thing to do (since there will be no video/audio re-compression), assuming Lr5 will accept them (sorry, but I do not know). example commands:
Mac: ffmpeg -i myvideo.vob -sameq myvideo.mpg
Win: ffmbc -i myvideo.vob -sameq myvideo.mpg
If Lr5 won't accept them, then you can convert to mp4 with minimal quality loss using a command like:
Mac: ffmpeg -i myvideo.vob -sameq myvideo.mp4
Win: ffmbc -i myvideo.vob -sameq myvideo.mp4
You may need variations of these commands depending on encoding of vob.
Note: -i means -input-file; -sameq means -same-quality, as much as possible.
ffm... is smart enough to avoid re-encoding, if possible, when -sameq is used, and makes reasonable choices for audio/video codecs based on extension of output file.
Of course, you'll need to download/install ffm... program if not already on your machine, and execute commands in a terminal or command window.
Do keep us posted please .
Cheers,

Where can I buy a replacement battery for a 17" PowerBook G4?
Just was advised by Apple Care that Apple no longer sells replacement batteries for the 'vintage' PowerBook G4. Does anyone know of an alternate source where I might be able to buy a replacement battery?

Hi, could someone please tell me where I could get a new front glass for my IPod touch. It was dropped and the whole glass cracked. I live in Gauteng.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like maybe less. Google for one near you.
Replace the screen yourself
iPod Touch Repair – iFixit
It has sources for the parts. You can just Google for screens too. -
Could someone please advise on my current problem? Apparantly I can no longer download tones to my phone or account to be used as such since the tones are being downloaded as songs that cannot be transferred or placed in the tones area for the phone or in iTunes. Prior to the last update, this was always an option. I have also noticed that the Ringtones and Alert Tones are not showing up in my recent purchases as well to allow for me to place them back on my phone and there for require for them to be purchased again... Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I've discovered that all tones purchased will be downloaded as ringtones, BUT they can be utilized as tones and assigned as alert tones on the iPhone...

Could someone please sketch out this simple script for me?
Could someone please sketch out a simple java script for me. I will have a document with one background
layer and a layer set (group) called "Analyze" that consists of 63 adjustment layers. The layer names in that "Analyze" group(folder) will be
"01" ...through "63" with 01 on the bottom and 63 at the top. Initially, all of the adjustment layers will be invisible and the
group will be closed (not expanded). I need a simple script that will check for the first invisible layer in that group
and make it visible without selecting that layer nor expanding the group. The script has to check
for the first invisible layer every time it runs because other actions may have turned off a layer in the set.
The point of this is so I can hotkey flipping on the layers one at a time without expanding the set or
changing focus off the background. It seems it should be a simple loop, but I just can't wrap my head
around all the objects (e.g. Layer as opposed to Layers and Artlayer as opposed to Artlayers)
and the constants constants.
for (i = 63; i>0; i--){ /* I have found layer indexes 0 are the topmost layer */
if( layerset[i] == INVISIBLE){
layerset[i] = VISIBLE;
break;
Could someone please write me a simple script that would do this?
Edit I found this and its very close to what I need:
var doc = app.activeDocument;
for(var i = 0 ; i < doc.layers.length;i++){
doc.layers[i].visible = (i % 2 == 0);
From here : Function to show/hide layer with Photoshop script (JSX) - Stack Overflow
In my case I would rewrite it to this
for(var i = 62; i >=0; i--){
if( !doc.layers[i].visible){
doc.layers[i].visible =TRUE;
break;
My problem is I just need to traverse the layers in my layerset "Analyze"
How do I reference just those? Is there a doc.layersets["Analyze"].layers[i].visible = TRUE?
Message was edited by: Shawn Laughlin To add more informationWell this works:
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var analyze = doc.layerSets.getByName("Analyze").layers
for(var i = 62 ; i >= 0; i --){
if (!analyze[i].visible){
analyze[i].visible =1;
break;
Hard to believe TRUE is not a constant in java. -
Can someone please recommend a Plantronics bluetooth headset for SPA525G2
Can someone please recommend a Plantronics bluetooth headset for SPA525G2
Hi Juan,
He is a link to Plantronics website with a list of headsets they support with the SPA525G's.
http://www.plantronics.com/us/configurator/default.jsp?use=Deskphone&wl=&ec=&sl=&spn=&skb=&sds=
The Voyager Legend looks like that may be a good option. Plantronics supports this headset with Bluetooth and as long as you the right phone load with Bluetooth enabled, then you should not have any issues.
Hope this helps.

You can get games from the itunes store, but they're not free.
iPodArcade has some quiz things, but they are nothing like the games you can purchase. -
Could someone please help me, I bought my daughter an iphone 4s for her birthday yesterday and I set it up for her so she could use it straight away, now we share emails, facetime and when i download an app she gets it too, very annoying for us both.
you can use the same apple id for purchasing apps and music if you want, but turn off automatic downloads. it may be better to have separate ones, but if you want the same app you'd have to pay twice. that's something you'll have to think about. for all the other stuff like facetime and messages and icloud you need to have separate icloud id's. see the apple link below.

Could someone please let me know the best external hard drive for a Mac Pro 17 in. ? Thank you .
Hi,
I am new to the community and need advice as soon as possible . I have been using the iMac hard drive , but need a external hard drive to put on the Mac Pro and dont know what kind to get . Could someone please let me know the best for the Mac Pro ? I was told to get the 500 MB external back up , but when searching for it on the internet I saw different ones that had other things with the 500 MB . Some had 300 or 200 something else along with them and I dont know which to purchase .
I will appreciate more than you know if you could help me with this , as the Pro is needing backed up now.
Thank you ,I appreciate all the great advice here , but all this is overwhelming to me , as you all are so intelligent with these things and this causes me to feel more dumb about a Mac than I was already .
I paid for a One on One to learn these things , but I have a Immune Disorder and wasn't able to attend one class , so its not that I didn't try , I am just not able to travel . I don't like asking others for help , but at this point I don't have a choice.
I called Apple store and was told to get a External Back-up for the Macbook Pro to back up the info. on the device in the event it crashed . And another reason was "they " said to get this was I have a 2 TB backup on the iMac desktop and that using it to back up things on the Macbook would take up all the space of the backup on the desktop . I hope I am saying these things right for others to understand me as I said I don't know much about these things , at all really . I am wondering if I should have ever bought these products as it seems they are much harder to learn than I thought . I do admire all the brains you all have here and wish I knew just a little of what you all know.
Someone ask the kind of Macbook Pro I have , it was bought in August of 2011 , but sat all those times , was only updated when needed to be , as I was trying to learn on the desktop Mac and with this illness I live in bed more than up , so I couldn't learn on both devices . I should also say at this time I paid for an extra 3 yrs. to have the opportunity to call in for advice , but was only given 15 min. of talk time , and I can't complain as the Techs were very supportive , but the problem was and is I can't be out of bed long enough to learn things I need to with only getting to call Techs , maybe every 3 or so months and sometimes I didn't call for 5 or so months , now that has expired and I don't have a choice but to ask for help .
I know some might wonder why I went to the trouble to have these devices with being sick , but I would like to live some with what time I have left in life . I am not searching for pity here , just wanting to clarify what has happened and why I am having to bother others . With this out of the way now I can get onto the other things here.
I am afraid I might have messed up the backup on the Macbook Pro was trying to make a back up and clicked on something saying do not use this , meaning the device from the desktop again . I had connected the backup device from the desktop , trying to make a backup of things on the Macbook Pro and also cant get the Time Machine turned back on , once I turned it off .
I am sorry I have taken so much time to try and explain this to you all , but I am not computer savvy as you are and have had a hard time explaining all this .
I noticed also someone said this isn't the right forum for this , and would like for someone to point me to the right one if you don't mind.
I appreciate all the good advice here and all the trouble you all went to for me .
Thank you , thank you all . -

Could someone please help me with getting the sabnzbd daemon to start?
Hi everyone,
I'm a classic newbie. I managed to follow some instructions I found on the web to get sabnzbd to install (via Yaourt), and when I invoke it from the command line, it works fine.
I've read that you can get it to start as a daemon, which would be really good. Could someone please explain how this should be done?
Where do I need to put the sabnzbd.init file?
What about the sabnzbd.confd file?
I'm okay enough with adding sabnzbd to the /etc/rc.conf file, but I can't quite configure it so that the necessary files are in place to start it.
If you need any details of my setup, please let me know.
Thanks heaps,

Apart from the wiki article on ABS, always look at the pkgbuild when in doubt. This is also helpful when you want to know what compile arguments are passed to GCC. Custom postinstall commands are run through .install file (example what is displayed after installation), this is generally foo.install in the AUR for a pkg named foo. And most importantly, familiarize yourself with compiling process, and Arch specific routines like a daemon should be defined in /etc/rc.d/, instead of /etc/init.d/ in other linuxes.
Edit: A best exercise would be to create a pkgbuild yourself. Arch always recommends community contributions.

Where do I buy a replacement battery for a MacBookPro6,2
After 1504 cycles, the "Replace Soon" warning has shown up on my mid-2010 MacBook Pro. I am 100% capable of replacing the battery myself, however I can't find anywhere on Apple's website to buy the replacement battery. All it says is to bring it in for them to replace which is not an option for me at this time.
Does anyone have a SPECIFIC recommendation on where to buy a GENUINE replacement battery for my model? And please don't say "ebay" or "amazon".
Here are the specs on my model: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP582OGELTHORPE wrote:

Yes, it is easy to install the battery. I have taken mine out a couple of times.
Ciao.
I'm looking for a non-Apple, non-ebay, non-amazon source for the battery. My Macbook Pro is in use 12+ hours per day for school and work so sending it in for a replacement is also not an option. So strange how it's impossible to find this battery for sale from an online retailer. Macmall, OWC, MacConnection, PowerMax, SmallDog... nobody sells them. :-(
