How do you get a new domain name?

I know it must be very simple to do but I just can't understand this process.
Do you have to buy a domain name from places like godaddy.com first?
Or can you created it on MobileMe for free?
Does it take 48hours to take effect?
Thanks

All domain names must be purchased from an domain name provider. GoDaddy.com is just one of many providers.
Once you purchase your name and publish the site you can set up MobileMe to use that domain name in one of two ways:
1 - using the CNAME feature of MobileMe. These documents describes how it is done:

2 - using the regular domain name forwarding like this example thru GoDaddy.com (this assumes you purchase the name thru GoDaddy) as seen in this screenshot:

How do you get a new line in a description of an iCal event?

I need to be able to create multiple lines in a description of an iCal event. In the past, I used control return to get a new line. In Mountain Lion, this does not show up as a new line, once the event has been saved. It merges all of the text onto one line and creates new lines as the space dictates. How can I force new lines in the event description between the words that I have chosen?

I'm interested too.
Please help, I had own method to management iCal's event – new line, of 10.7 worked great – now is a little terrible for me :/

See the chart below to determine whether you can upgrade your device and what you can upgrade to. If you do not have a Software Update option present on your iDevice, then you are trying to upgrade to iOS 5 or higher. You will have to connect your device to your computer and open iTunes in order to upgrade.

[Given up] How do you get 'show new forum topics'?

There is 'Show recent posts', but I'm interested in *topics*. Any ideas? Am I missing sth?
Edit:
The way I do it is rather unDijkstraish, but I'm stupid and lazy and it works for me. I simply bookmark the newest topic f.e.
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=85300
and next time I want to check the forums for some new topics, I enter the next urls manually
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=85301
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=85302
etc.
I subscribe to topics I find interesting and skip the rest.
When I get a page that says "Bad request. The link you followed is incorrect or outdated." I bookmark it and remove the previous one (http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=85300 in the above example).
Lather, rinse, repeat.

Um, not quite. By "new" I mean "the ones I haven't seen yet", so 'Show unanswered posts' != 'Show new *topics*'.
I want to know what's going on on the forums, did sb posted sth interesting or maybe I can help sb. I've read all the topics (the 'titles') and subscribed to some of them.
Now I'd like to be notified about new *topics* only, because the old ones I have already sorted out: either I'm interested in the discussion and subscribed or I'm uninterested and would like to have a way to disregard them automagically.
The search function is of not much help here.

How do you get a new file in a shared folder to inherit permissions

I have a shared folder that I share with a co-worker and having trouble with the permissions for new files/folders.
When he creates a new file or new folder, the permissions for that file/folder are set as read only for myself. The parent shared folder is set at "Read/Write" for both of us.
Is it possible to control the permissions for new files/folders?

Actually, that property used to go in the entry for that sharepoint in the "NetInfo" database, and really only worked properly when 'afpuse_parentowner' was also set. The .plist file controls the behaviour of the afp server as a whole, not that of individual share points.
I'm not sure what the "DirectoryService" equivalent is - a lot of the things have similar names but differ in "case", but some things are completely different or absent.
Unfortunately, I'm not equipped to test these things myself but changes can be made using 'dscl', or possibly by editing the flat files directly in a manner similar to what is described here:

How do you get the new pane window to show websites?

I followed the instructions in the help article, but it still didn't make my preview windows come back. Am i just doing it wrong or do i have a different issue? I just installed kapersky anti virus as well but i dont see any options that would affect the preview tabs. What else can i do?

Yes.When you click on the new tab plus sign, there are preview windows for most used websites. Mine have all disappeared. The silhouettes are there, but they will not populate with any websites. There is a help topic about it, but I followed the instructions and no joy, it didn't work.

If you update your aulbum covers how do you get the new covers on your ipod

i updated about 50 aulbm covers and cant get them on my ipod

If you are Manually managing music updating your iPod, you need to delete the songs on the iPod and then re-add them from iTunes.
If you are auto-syncing, just resync the iPod.

How do you get your webcam device name from the JMF registry?

Ya, I don't know where the JMF registry is.....is there a list somewhere in the API? Is it somewhere in the Windows registry files after installing JMF? I keep hearing you need to do this when creating a webcam application but never seen it explained anywhere.

The registry is a file located in the lib directory under the installation of Java Media Framework, called jmf.properties.
You can edit it with the jmfregistry application provided with JMF, or using the proper classes such as the CaptureDeviceManager.

FireFox 5: How Do you get NEW windows to AUTOMATICALLY maximize?

When you select the option "New Window" (Ctrl + N OR 'Open A New Window' Icon), how do you get your NEW window to AUTOMATICALLY open MAXIMIZED [in FireFox 5]? Is there a "special" option under Tools > Options > "Whatever?", is there a special hotkey to use, or is it NOT currently possible in the recent version???

You can right click one tab and choose "Close Other Tabs" to close most of them.
Set the pref browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab to false on the about:config page to prevent closing the last tab from closing the browser and make a close button appear if only one tab is open.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

How do you get iTunes to recognise new/changed Airport names? These Airports have attached speakers.

Hi turingtest2 - thanks for the reply. As you say It is how it is - and I have three workstations in this home (not counting three for my children and one for the family) and I pretty much always have more than one OS on each - that's how it is for me. I shouldn't have to worry about how many OSs I have (or how often I change them) just to have music while I'm working - through the PC sound system that is. I never have to worry about any other software, only iTunes. Once in a while (in the past) I've made a vendor call if I changed to many things to often (like CPU, GPU, memory, etc - or even a replacement MB) - but that hasn't happened in a couple years (at least since Vista) so I think (hope) they have fixed that for good. And even then it was a quick call and problem resolved. The only (glaring) constant problem is iTunes - limiting my own use of my own music (by counting an OS as a physical PC). Even with VM (which is just another OS) - although you can Attach things to multiple active OSs - it's still your own (purchased) music - and all on one PC. Thanks again!

I have a new Macbook pro, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop.

I have a new Macbookbook, about 2 months old, and at times running video, the fans starts and does not stop. how do you get it to stop. Also i am thinking once the video is done the fan should be slowing down and getting quiet on its own.

Your fan(s) will run at high speed (i.e., loudly) while video is playing, and you can't get around that.
If your fans are not slowing down within 2-4 minutes after CPU- and/or GPU-intensive usage ends, and the application that was showing the video is still running, Quit that application. (In fact, if you're accustomed to Windows, you may not realize that simply closing a Mac application's window does not quit the application. You still need to use the Quit command in the application-name menu. There will always be a bright dot beside or below the application icon in your Dock for each application that is open.) Quit the ones you aren't using, and see whether that allows the fans to slow down without restarting the machine. If that doesn't do the trick, reset the SMC:

Hi, I have just purchased a ipad mini for my wife and have registered it in my name so that i can add some apps that i think she would appreciate. However if i want to contact her using face time it is registered in my name, how do you get around that?

Hi I have just purchased an i pad for my wife and have registered it in my name to add some apps prior to giving the i pad to her. However, for using face time and games where you can link via wifi it will look as though there are two of the same, if I am trying to link her ipad to mine. How do you get around this?

I have a 120gb Classic that has no space left on it. i am going to buy a larger gb capacity ipod as soon as i get clearer instruction on how to get the old ipod content to the new ipod. How do you get content from one ipod to the other?

how do you get content from one ipod to the new one? my content is on an external hard drive not on my pc and i have run out of space on my 120gb classic. can you get old ipod content to new? my itunes has only got short cuts, the real content is on an external drive? can this be done?? please help

If the content is on an external drive, but your library knows where to find it, then it should all work. Connect your device, make some selections for what to put on it, and sync. If, on the other hand, your current iPod is the only place holding some of your media then see this user tip: Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
