Hi, I was just wondering if an eMac with the
following spec would run Doom 3 or any other rescent
games without a problem.
You won't be able to hack Doom 3; that requires a 1.5GHz CPU.
For more info, see <http://www.aspyr.com/games.php/mac/d3/>. Info about other Aspyr games are elsewhere on that site.
Also, if i buy an eMac for office and home use, would
that be a good choice?
You're gonna have a problem buying a new eMac. Apple no longer offers new ones to non education customers. If your local 3rd-party store doesn't have any, you'll have to get one from a mail-order house before they run out. Or buy a refurbished unit from Apple, while they last.

Emacs and imacs noise?

How do you compare the noise emacs and imacs make?
The only thing I don't want for my eMac is the noisy fan. And maybe I'll switch for an iMac.
Thank you

eMacs are noise pollution city.
I registered the constant noise from a old eMac 800 mhz at being 73db.
It drives you batty.
The iMac's are virtually silent, only making a slight kechunk sound when eatting and spitting cd's. You'll love it. They are quieter than most PowerMac G5's.
Problem right now is the new iMac's are intel processor based core duals, they are fast, but not a whole lot of software is ready for them natively yet, but will run at reduced performance using PPC based software under emulation (rosetta). Some games might not work either.
If you depend on Photoshop performance, Adobe might not have a native Intel version ready for another 14 months.
Coming from a eMac, the iMactel with Core Duo proccessors will seem very fast to you.

IMac G3 still ok for educational software and games ?

I'm planning to buy an iMac G3 (around 500Mhz or better with DVD-ROM) for the kids. I just don't want them to be using my iMac G5 to run educational software and games. My kids are nearly 3 years old so I'm talking about very simple stuff here. But I was wondering : is an iMac G3 still enough to run those kind of things ? I found one, a Snow 500Mhz DVSE with DVD-drive and 640Mb of RAM and a 30Gb HD for €100 (must be about $140) in mint condition. But it's still a G3. I know there's a huge amount of educational software and games out there which can be bought for a few euros/dollars and that software will run efforlessly on a G3. But wouldn't I be better off spending a bit more on a G4 eMac (that would actually be around €300-$440), but then again, why spend that much money on a "play" computer for kids who are likely to bash the screen and keyboard now and again...
Your opinions please...

Hey Rincewind,
Kinichi makes a good point about the durability of the G3s. However I've got 8 in my basement and 30 or so out on donation and my kids and parents have 3. These were all picked up used at garage sales or donated and many have been running for over 5 years now.
That said I'm used to paying less than $40 each for them. Often people give them to me for donation.
I run 9.2.2 in all the one's that go to kindergarten kids with software like:
Kid Pix Studio Deluxe including the latest 4
Memory Fun
Alphabet Express CD
Arthur's Birthday
Curious George ABC.
Tortoise & Hare
TT2.
DLCS - Kindergarten
Carnival Countdown
Pocahontas
Zoombini
All the Living Books series.
note-I run SMIs of all these so you don't need the CD to run the program.

Browse and Games icons have disappeared

Hi
My browse, favorites and Games icons have completely disappeared, when I go to my app I can see all the games installed, however I can not find them on my blackberry. I have already tried to updated it but says I have the latest version of software.
Could you please help me on what do it to recover them.
Many Thanks

If you don't know the restrictions code then do you know if it was on the iPad when you last backed up ? If not then you can restore to that backup and it should be removed. If it was on the iPad when you last backed up then the only way to remove it is to reset the iPad back to factory defaults and you can then re-sync your content back to the iPad - you won't be able to restore to the backup as that will keep the code in place.

I am using a 2003 eMac and am running on Mac OSX vs 10.4.11. I amrunning iTunes 8.2.1 (6) and not able to upgrade iTunes on this computer. iTunes is not recognizing music I have purchased and when I try to connect when it request me to I get the following error message:
Cannot complete iTunes Store request. A required iTunes component is not installed (-42404)
Please help.

Is this music purchased back in DRM days? I don't actually have any iTunes music so I can't test with my iTunes 7.5, but I know that without iTunes 10 you cannot even connect to the store anymore. I wouldn't think that would require an active connection to the store all the time, otherwise how could you play music on a computer in the middle of nowhere? Did you do something to trigger iTunes suddenly wanting to connect and check on machine authorization?

Java (.jar) applications and games on 5530XM

Hello
I have used the search option before asking, and I have manually searched some of the sub-forums (or boards) I thought could and would be relevant to my issue, and have seen no similar questions being asked. I have also worked with my good friend Google, and had no luck there, either. Most of the results were pirated software links, which is not necessarily bad, but does not help me resolve my issue.
Now, I'm not sure this is the correct board to post this in, but I'm not too far off even if it isn't; so bear with me. Now, onto the question.
I would like to know if it is possible to turn off the D-Pad emulator, and how one would go about doing that?
Let me elaborate, for those who are not familiar with what I'm talking about:
Namely, the 5530XM has an elegant solution for running non-touch apps and games (i.e.. those made for earlier revisions of the S60 OS, or even those legacy apps for S40), and it is as follows - the phone places the app/game interface in a window, scaled to the apps original rendering resolution, and then places a set of touch command buttons. It makes a Directional Pad, consisting of concentric circles, divided into 5 areas, 4 directions (up, down, left, right), and a general "OK" button (center). It also displays four "Letter-buttons", labeled "A", "B", "C" and "D", which have variable or no functions, depending on the app that is run. Finally it displays two function buttons, Left and Right Menu buttons, usually placed near the red and green phone button on phones with keypads. This works flawlessly for old apps and games, with the limitation that the interface is not multi-touch, meaning it will only accept one virtual keypress at a time.
My problem with this setup is that some of the more recent Java applications are run as legacy as well; meaning ALL of the touch-aware apps and games that I have tried running. This is unacceptable for several reasons. First, some of them don't recognize the simulated commands, rendering the virtual D-Pad useless. What's more, the virtual interface covers a good portion of the app's original interface, making it impossible to use it. The apps and games I have tried are shipped as .jar, and are supposed to work with a touch interface. And they do, it's only that they're half-covered with an unneeded virtual D-Pad!
I am open for all suggestions, I have the latest firmware installed, 20.0.080.C01.01, the phone is, as mentioned, 5530 XM (RM-604), and I haven't manually altered Java in any way. I am, however, ready and willing to go for some more serious tinkering if need be, even if it involves altering system files, hex editing and whatnot, and I won't cry to mama if I brick the phone, I know full well the range and scope of possible consequences. This would probably constitute breaking the rules, maybe even voiding the warranty, so I'm not asking for anyone to give an answer of that level here, publicly, but feel free to send a personal message or ask for my e-mail / IM screen name, so that we can communicate about such taboo topics
One more note, probably relevant: .sis and .sisx apps and games work flawlessly, bot the old ones needing the D-Pad (they get a virtual one) and the new ones, which are correctly recognized as touch-capable. Even some that are reported incompatible by the phone work without a hitch. It really is a pity to see the Java apps fail after everything else is flawless.
Perhaps, if there is no known solution or a dirty workaround, we can file an official recommentadion/bug report/feature request to the developers in charge? I can wait.
Thanks to those brave enough to read my wall of text, and thanks in advance to all who reply something useful
Careful what you wish for... You just might get it.
Solved!

You can sync iOS apps from your compute's iTunes library to your iPod. An iPod will only run iOS apps/games. It will not run or even sync computer apps/games.

How do I get music and games which I purchased for my daughter through my iTunes account onto her iPad mini but at the same time set up a separate iTunes account for her iPad?

My daughter used to use my old iPod and all the music and games that she wanted went through my e-mail/iTunes account. She has moved onto an iPad mini but this is still in my account. I want to set up an e-mail and iTunes account for her so that my iPhone doesnt get jammed up with all her stuff. If I do this I think that all the stuff which I've bought will be lost to her. How can I get round this?

Apple devices can hold protected content from up to five different accounts, however updating apps purchased over more than one account (as far as I'm aware) requires signing in and out of each account. You may be better off continuing to use one account for your family, as I do, but disabling the options on each device for the automatic download of purchases made on the account, and in iTunes, the automatic inclusion of new apps when syncing from the library to the device.

How can i transfer my music and games from my iphone 4s to my iphone 6?

i want to know how i can transfer my pictures, music and games from my iphone 4s to my iphone 6

You should be storing everything on your computer. Just sync it to the iPhone of your choice from your computer.

My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files. I am in the process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

My ipod nano was synced by itunes and removed all of my music and game files, and replaced my music with my kids music that they have put into the current itunes library. My music is nowhere to be found on my computer, so now I am in the long, forever process of adding my music back one cd at a time, but there is no history of tetris that I paid for from the itunes store. How can I get this game back for my ipod?

Contact iTunes support and explain your situation to them. They may let you redownload it at no cost.

If they don't, I'm afraid you'll have to purchase it again. Sorry.

ITunes wiped out most of my music, movies, and games when I synced

I restored the settings on my iPod, downloaded a fresh version of iTunes 7.7, and tried to re-sync at least a half dozen times. No luck. It turns out that somehow my computer had been deauthorized -- I know it wasn't anything I did or didn't do; it happened spontaneously. Once I reauthorized my computer, my iPod starting adding back the songs, movies, and games. Hope this helps some other short-term sufferers from an attack of the iTunes elves.

I think it may be how all of your items are checked under your ipod in Summary and Music and Videos tabs. If you don't check either to sync (if you manually manage music and videos), it removes it. This is very confusing b/c you would think you only want to "sync" stuff that you haven't downloaded to your ipod. Not the case, though. You have to sync everything you want to keep on your ipod....I think
Hope this helps.

Could you guys help me to sign out this icloud's ID and game center's ID from that phone for me, or anyone knows how to do this, please mail back to me. Id : "[email protected]" Thanks.

As far as I know you can't delete the primary email address for an iCloud account. It's assigned when the account is created. But your neighbor wouldn't have been able to get into your iCloud account without your Apple ID and password. Are you sure the account wasn't still on your phone when you gave it to him?
You could migrate a copy of your data to a new iCloud account but I would still be concerned that someone else was using my old account, which presumably still has your data in it.
I'm fairly certain that you're going to have to have iCloud support help you sort this one out as they may have the ability to make changes to an existing account that users can't. Make an appointment with the genius bar at a nearby Apple store and have them take a look at it. If necessary, they should be able to contact iCloud support for you.
