I-Pod Games , Are they worth it?

are the new i-pod games really worth the money?
or are they just boring and will loose its worth within 5 mins?

Everyone has their own opinion, but I have purchased two of the games, Mahjongg and Sudoko, and I enjoy them both. Not bored yet.

Lanyard Headphones-why the shortage? Are they worth it?

Are they worth it? Why the shortage? When will they be available? I've had them on order from PCCONNECTION for 3 weeks with no product in sight...
Thanks.

Well, the lanyard and tubes are still listed on this site:
http://www.apple.com/ipodnano/accessories.html
But I cancelled my order and went with a Zcover (comes with a lanyard) and the Sennheiser MX-400 ear buds... They have pretty decent sound for under $10.00 U.S. I just got sick of waiting and decided to let someone else test them and report back.

External HDD G-Tech are they worth it.

I will need to get an external HDD for my forthcoming iMac, and am looking around at which to get.
Now all the photos I see on the Apple website or in emails they send me have the G-Tech external HDD on show.
Are these really worth the premium price over other brands or just good marketing by G-Tech to get them used by Apple
I'm looking at a 1TB firewire 800 Drive.

What are you using that drive for? If it's for Time Machine, a fast drive would certainly not hurt, but it is not necessary either. Time Machine would work fine over a USB 2.0 connection, and USB 2.0 external drives are usually less expensive. They also seem to be less finicky, and even the cheap stuff works reliably. I have a large external SATA drive connected (more or less permanently) to one of these USB adapters
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/U2NV2SPATA/
and it's been working fine as my Time Machine drive for over one year. I just put four little adhesive rubber nubs (that you can find in a hardware store) on the bottom of that drive, and it sits on my desktop.
If you are getting FireWire 800 for performance and primary (not backup) storage, then it makes sense to pay extra for quality. I've never owned a G-Tech drive, but they seem to make good stuff, as do LaCie. So does OWC with their NewerTech brand (macsales.com), which I do own. I also have a Macally enclosure, and it has been solid. For FireWire, I tend to avoid companies that are not focused on Mac users. Some of them put extra Windows features their drives that seem to interfere with them working on reliably on Macs. Others, for some reason, cannot be used as a startup disk, even though FireWire has always been bootable (even on PowerPC Macs).

Are they worth it?

All:
Is it really worth getting an Apple display (for $500+) over an NEC or ViewSonic for a significant amount less?
Please discuss.
Thanks!
Max

Yes and no. Apple sells high end displays which means they are digital rather than analog (better color), they are brighter, they have faster response time (less smearing and ghosting in animation and movies), and have even lighting (no shadows or bright spots). Comparing an Apple display to LCD displays you find at discount houses and electronic stores is like comparing a BMW sports car to a Ford mini-compact.
Now when you compare the Apple displays to other high end professional displays you'll find that the prices are closer but the Apple displays are still more expensive. For example, Dell's 22" display is considerably less expensive than Apple's. If you put the two displays side by side you'll find that the Dell's picture quality is nearly as good as the Apple display but I could see differences that put the Apple display slightly ahead. So that leaves you considering things like ease of repair (should it be needed), support, and quality over lifetime. (Not to mention the esthetics of the Apple display vs the clunky plastic Dell).

Real-time Blacklist (RBL) Servers are they worth using?

Hi, are Real-time Blacklist (RBL) Servers worth using, and if so what's the best once to use?
Thanks
- Cameron

I agree with Joe. Using just Spamhaus is a pretty good approach. Spamhaus is reasonably conservative about blacklisting servers, so it is less likely that you will reject legitimate servers (which can happen with some more aggressive RBLs).
Also, if you are serious about this, download and carefully follow Pterobyte's "Frontline Defense for Mac OSX Server" <http://osx.topicdesk.com/content/view/38/62/>. By implementing his tutorial, you will be fine tuning your server so that it rejects about 70% - 80% of spam before it reaching your content filter. It increases the efficiency of your setup a great deal.

I have 20kb of damaged files on my old hard drive. Are they worth keeping, and if so, how would I go about repairing them?

I got rid of my old iMac G5 computer which ran on Tiger, but not before I retained the hard drive, which was installed into a 'caddy'.
There is a folder containing 20kb of damaged files. I wondered whether they were worth keeping, and if so, how do I go about repairing them?

Hello Sapper,
Mostly they're garbage, text files would likely be the only "recoverable" ones, but...

Laptop desks/coolers are they worth it?

I`m new to laptops and was wondering are these things (ilaps and the like ) actually worth the coin .
I do understand that a hard surface is best(according to apple literature) to allow the air to flow but would a nice peice of wood or simalar not do the trick for basicly no cost?

Well kinda hold it, actually the rubber pad under the macbook is hold the MAcBook to the cooler surface, not gripped it but just hold it to prevent slide down on certain degre, but if you tilt it too much it might drop.
And since it is not a dedicated for MAcBook model so it is preety much flat hard surface with fans.
Maybe your customation can add side bar on each edge to prevent it from sliding and falling form the wood panel, since you can make it exactly match to your MAcBook.
Good luck

Ipod/Itunes books. are they worth it?

I'm not the most technologically connected person. While I've got some help here in the communities, I find it easier to read an actual book/paper for instructions on how to do things. Are there any books out there that are worth it and/or helpful? I'm sure I'll stll ask questions here but it might be easier if I had a book to look to

I do not know of any. The problem is that things change so fast by the time a book would be published it would be out of date.

Refurbished Ipods - Are they worth the money?

Anyone got input on refurbished ipods?
Mine has a hard drive problem, not sure if I want to deal with the headache of replacing the hard drive, or just to buy a refurbished one.

I've bought several refurbished iPods from the Apple Refurbished Store for myself and my family. Apart from the different packaging, they've all been in new condition with no scratches or marks and have all performed flawlessly. In fact you've got more chance of a brand new, off-the-factory-line unit developing a fault than a refurbished unit as they are fully tested before being dispatched. They're covered by the same 1 year warranty as retail versions and you can purchase the Applecare policy as well. When you can save so much money, I would highly recommend refurbished iPods. The only negative is that as I live in the UK, the refurbished store doesn't have as a wide variety of iPods as in the US refurbished store and as stock levels can fluctuate, you can never guarantee that the iPod you want will be in the refurbished store at any one time.

Mac Mini are they worth it

Trying to save a couple bucks can someone talk me out of or into a mac mini.
Thanks

It all depends on your intended use. Without that
the question is way to vague.
Is a MacPro worth it for some one who just surfs the web
and gets email, probably not unless that person just wants
to impress people.
Is an iPad worth it for some one who wants to do realtime 3D
modeling, definately not.
So for recommendations, really need to know what the intended
use is going to be.

Dual processors are they worth it?

I’m about to build a new PC for PS5 extended and wanted to know if Photoshop will run significantly faster with dual processors? Anyone tried this?

This isn't the Photoshop forum, in spite of the name, but yes dual processors is better. More than 2 is even more better. Photoshop runs significantly better with more. So does Lightroom.

I used Article: HT2109 to transfer everything from my iPod touch 3g, iOS 5.1.1, to my iPod touch 5g, iOS 6.1.3. Why did data from apps NOT move to the new device? Games are starting over rather than picking up where they were on the old device?

- If you restored the 5G frmm the iTunes backup of the 3G were th app in the iTunes library of the computer you used? They have to be.
- If yes then try again. When I first restored my iPad 4 from the iTunes backup of my iPad 1 app data did not transfer. I tried again and it did.

I'm trying to buy some EA games but they are not availalbe in my country, South Africa.

I'm trying to buy some EA games but they are not availalbe in my country, South Africa. Most of the apps I want to buy are not availalbe there. Splitting iTunes by country really is lame, I can buy anything anywhere on Ebay with the same credit card, thats the nature or eCommerce, do it all the time. How do I do this without having a foreign credit card?

"I'm trying to buy some EA games but they are not availalbe in my country"
Then you cannot buy them.
"Most of the apps I want to buy are not availalbe there."
Then you cannot buy them either.
You can ONLY buy frome the itunes store of your country of residence ( proven by the issuing country of your credit card AND the valid billing address) AND ONLY while you are physiclally located inside the borders of that country.
You cannot use other countrys itunes stores.
Sorry
