How do I extract *.odm (Overdrive Media) files on my Macbook Air

I'm running OS 10.6.7, OverDrive Media Console for Mac v1.1 and have download and install (I think correctly) Flip4Mac.
I can download the .odm file but can't extract the .wma files - I get this message: This version of OverDrive Media Console does not support Media in the 'WMA Audiobook' format.
Does anyone have a way around this? I really want to be able to listen to .wma books from my library.
Thanks.

Thank yes - that would be the easiest - but I'm not talking about listening to it, I can work that part of the problem out myself.
I'm wondering if there is a way to basically run an odm download script on a Mac? to get the wma on my drive.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

OverDrive Media files cannot be used on iPods or Mac computers

Our local library at "'librariesonthego.library.on.ca" offers audiobooks on loan. Regretfully it seems I can't use my iMAC G5 and iPod nano to download & play the audiobooks because the audiobooks use DRM technology from Microsoft which is not compatible with iPods or OS-X. In order to take advantage I must use a PC and I will need to purchase another mobile player device.
The library has posted the following notice:
"+At this time, OverDrive Media files cannot be used on iPods or Mac computers.+
+Our media titles, provided by OverDrive, Inc., use DRM (Digital Rights Management) protection technology from Microsoft Corporation. Unfortunately the iPod (and Mac) currently support neither DRM-protected Windows Media Audio (.wma) files nor Windows Media Video (.wmv) files.+
+OverDrive, along with hundreds of online media providers, is hopeful that Apple and Microsoft can reach an agreement that would enable support for Microsoft-based DRM-protected materials on the iPod/Mac."+
Apple is usually on the forefront of such digital media developments and, it can be argued, it's work in this area is the reason for it's current success. Accordingly it seems a shame that
Am I missing some obvious point or is Apple actually an unwitting barrier to greater and more prevalent uses of it's own hardware and services?
What do others think of this?

Even though Overdrive now has MP3 audio books, you still can't download from the public library (or any library) with your Mac because the MP3 books still require Overdrive Media Console, which runs only on Windows. Overdrive claims that they will be releasing a Mac version of the Media Console sometime this year. I'll believe it when I can run it.

I want to copy my iMac iPhoto files to a MacBook Air. How do I do this? Thanks.

I want to copy my iMac iPhoto files to a MacBook Air. How do I do this?
Do I drag and drop the iPhoto files or should I use a Thunderbolt cable?
Thanks.

Connect the two Mac via a LAN or FW cable and Target Disk Mode and copy the iPhoto Library package from your iMac to your Pictures folder on MBA. All it takes is a drag and drop no matter how you connect the two Macs.
If you have an external HD copy the library to it and reconnect to the MBA and copy again.
If you have a library already on your MBA and it has photos you want to save then rename it before the copy.

I transferred settings and files from old MacBook air to new one. New one now gives popup about failing to connect to server (old iMac). the new Mac air and old iMac have never met and are 2000 miles apart. How do I stop the popups?

Change your settings in Sharing preferences, for one, and remove the server out of the Finder's sidebar. Obviously, this is the result of transfering all your other computer's preferences to your new computer.

Finding extended 'Elements 12' file on Apple Macbook Air

I have 'Elements 12 working o.k. I must find this extended Elements 12 file, on my MacBook Air: Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 12/SupportFiles/Plug-ins.
(I need this to copy a special 'sharpening' program ('Focus Magic') that I downloaded. How do I find this file???

I'm not sure what you mean about "extended", but click once on your desktop and press command+shift+A and that should open the applications folder. Look for the Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 folder in there, then the support files folder inside that and the plugins folder inside the Support Files folder.

How can i back up my NOOK Books to my MacBook Air, and then transfer to a second iPad??

how can i back up my NOOK books to my macbook air? when i sync, all that comes over is purchases from Apple.

File > Transfer Purchases will only copy purchases from Apple (though it does appear to copy PDFs from iBooks as well). Depending on whether the second iPad is new or not, you could try backing up the first iPad and restoring that backup to the second iPad and see if that copies the books onto it. Otherwise I think that you should be able to re-download the books on the second iPad

How can i upload music from my ipod to my macbook air?

hi, how can i upload music from my ipod to my macbook air? thanks.

Try this.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
However it appears that no playlists or any other info such as ratings/last played etc will transfer.
If this is important to you, you may want to use other options.
There's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod to iTunes.

How can I control my my mac mini with my macbook air (no wifi)?

How can I control my my mac mini with my macbook air (no wifi)? Also...what is the best method (less lag) for screen sharing?
I own a mac mini Quad Server 2.0 i7 and I use it for audio production. It's great but I need to travel with it. I was hoping some form of screen sharing could be useful using the macbook air to control the mac mini. Therefore, I'd be using the stronger processor of the mac mini but would still be using the keyboard and trackpad from the air.
My two problems:
1. I can't depend on wifi to make this happen. Wifi is not always available when travleing. What would be the best way to configure a LAN connection?
2. The less lag the better for screen sharing. Which apps are fastest?
Thanks in advance.

Both of your devices have WiFi built in. Here is Apple Support's solution:

It would have saved to your camera roll. Connect the phone to your Air via a USB cable and then run Image Capture which is located either in your Utilities folder or Other folder, depending on what version of Mac OS X your are running. You will then see all the photos and videos stored on your iPhone and can then download them.
