How sturdy is this thing?
I was wondering, how sturdy is this ibook? Mine is 3 months old and it seems so fragile to me. anyone have any ideas on how strong this thing is? the new dell laptop in the house seems 100 times sturdier than this 12" ibook.
it has a polycarbonate casing on it and if you haven't been aloud to play with that kind of stuff you need to get a sheet about 5mm in thickness and try to break it without other devices and try firing a gun at it (no high power rifles now) and it won't break i've seen it hold up to a .357, a .38, a .38 special, a .22 low power rifle, and shotguns from almost point blank (to allow the projectile a chance to not stay in the barrel). it will hold up now the stuff used by Apple isn't the same grade used to stop bullets but it will hold up to a good whack (don't try it unless you can hide any marks) or a decent drop but the only place of major concern is a corner or the connecting piece between the screen and the computing components.
P.S. i almost forgot it also can take a hit from a .44 and the .357, the .38, the .38 special, and the .44 are all S&W Magnums.

How long does this thing take to restore
I connected this for the first time to a pc and registerd it and everything-- then my bro put it on his mac - then now i put it back on my pc-- how long will it take to restore so i can finally put songs on it???????????
Windows PCs cannot directly read a Mac formatted HD (or iPod).
Macs can read and write to a Windows formatted HD if it is in FAT32. Macs with OS X10.3 and higher will read a Windows NTFS formatted HD, but no Macs can write to an NTFS HD. iPods only function when formatted in FAT32. iPods cannot function as a MP3 player if formatted in NTFS.
Using Windows, you can try running XPlay (Software For Cross-Platform Functionality)

Netcfg v2 works - but I do not know how to do this things
Hello,
I just succesfully installed netcfg v2. I can connect to the wireless network using
netcfg2 home
But I do not know how to do the following thins:
It is mentioned in the wiki, but I do not get what exactly I have to do for this.
I have 2 configuration: Home and Uni
- Can the startup script detect which Networks are available and connect to the available one?
- When I connect to the "Uni" configuration, I need to start vpnc afterwards. Can I somehow automate this?
Thanks!
Nathannetcfg2 can do 'dumb' detection on boot. Set SCAN="on" in both profiles, and put the profiles in your rc.conf NETWORKS=() line.
It'll check if each network is available, then connect if it is.
There's also an autodetect script in the netcfg2 source, look in the contrib dir in the tarball or git.

How do I access Screengrabber? Then, how do I use it? Is it easy to find directions?

my windows(8.1 64bit) partition is read only from the mac(yosemite) side of things. Anybody have a clue on how to fix this? Also, slightly frustrating as well, windows crashes every time I attempt to open a file from the mac partition.
All Office applications will also try to open a temporary work file in the same location as the source file. This implies the source file directory also needs to be writable for this temporary file. Since the default HFS+ driver provides only read-only access, such temporary files will fail to open, and will cause the application to fail.
As a test copy the file you want to edit, say an Excel spreadsheet from the OSX file system to the C: drive on the Windows side and try to open it. If you look in this directory, you should see two files, the source and a temporary file. You may have to force the temporary file to be opened on a read-write file system, by manipulating the folder for temporary files. -
I know nothing about how to use my new ipod and when reading the little information that came with it, all I can do is turn it on. Then in a few seconds it goes black, never having brought up a screen to do anything! Help! What do I do to get this thing going?
You might consider connecting it to the charger and charging up the battery overnight.

I have changed my apple id, and its ok when i sync my Iphone with Itunes, but ON my Iphone still my old apple-ID is there. I can NOT buy things from Itunes or Upgrade anything now, how to fix this?
I recently changed my email address and want to change my Apple ID account to match. I have created a new Apple ID to match the new account but now I can't sign into iCloud on our phones or computer with the old Apple ID. I can't make any changes on iCloud on our phones because it directs me to the old account, which I can't sign into. I also can't sign me in on my computer to make any changes. Help!!! Now I have two addresses and can't access the one that directly affects my devices.

I've just updated my iPad 3 to IOS 7 and when i try to type any thing be it a password or e-mail there is a long lag any idea how to sort this out ?
Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
$19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard. -

I've got Iphone 4s from my boss instead of my paycheck due to a bankrot. And he doesn't remember his apple id,password or e mail he used to activate Iphone.. How can I get this thing to work without it? :/
You can't.

My computer tells me I purchased Rod Stewart's Christmas album. I DID NOT. How do I get iTunes to cancel the purchase. Also, this thing has suddenly started playing when I turn on my computer. How do I make it stop?
It is probably too late to cancel it, but contact the iTunes store support staff at http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html and see what they can do for you.

Hi guys, I have a problem with imessage. My iphone 4S is factory unlocked and i have been using t-mobile carrier. i tried settings - messages - imessage on but there is this 'waiting for activation' thing. Does anyone know how to solve this?
Thanks!If you are in the UK:
Please upgrade your plan to Web n Walk plus. One of our users on T-Mobile UK had this to report back to us:
T-Mobile UK are in fact port blocking to ensure fair usage on their base Web and Walk Plan. I have upgraded to Web and Walk Plus and as a result the port blocks are lifted and I get a higher data allowance!
We were also recently contacted by T-Mobile UK, who stated the following:
Any smart phone (iphone, android etc) that is bought directly from T-Mobile should be automatically provisioned with Web n Walk plus, if customers have bought a handset sim free then they will need to call customer services and get this added. It is free of charge for most price plans (including new plans) but some older plans will generate a charge of £5pm for this. -

Recently when I search for things in the top right search bar in iTunes, the results show up but I cannot click on them. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Go to this address: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/search-engines.html?country=AU
Item 24 lists 3 installable major search engines for Australia.
You can also restrict your search in Google by including ''country:au'' or ''location:au'' or ''city:perth'' (for example) in your search terms. Example: ''city:sydney plumbers'' in the Google search box will list plumbers in cities named sydney.

Migration from Oracle 7 to 8i or 9i
If a customer has the choice to migrate from 7 to 8i or 9i it seems more efficient to migrate directly to 9i. Are there any circumstances or reasons for not migrating directly to 9i? (for example stability?). Thanks for your reply.
