Looking for a Cheap Surround Receiver

Hi I am looking for a cheap surround sound receiver or a sound bar that has optical in and a sub out option any ideas? I have a 50" Plasma by Panasonic and I have a Polk Audio 10" sub and my TV has a optical out and my sub uses RCA so that's where I am coming from I am not worried about the sound the TV sounds good and the sub is wicked awesome I just need a way to hook up my TV to the sub. At the moment my sub is plugged into the back of my Xfinity HD Cable box so only my cable is going through the sub I need a way to use my cable and my PS3 through the sub so I figured if I can get a receiver that has optical and a sub out i will be good. If you have any ideas im open to listen to them and try them out thanks!!

For some reason, it's not on the website...I was going to recommend the Yamaha V373 receiver. Runs about $249.99, but I think it's on sale for $219.99 this week. Good solid receiver that should work fine for you. That or the Sony 520 receiver. Think Pioneer has their 522 model as well. More inclined to go with Yamaha and Sony this year, though.

Martnlindhe,
I chose to purchase a MacMini Intel model to hookup to my 36 inch Sony TV.
I chose this model for several reasons as I also have a Web Camera hooked up to it at the same time via Firewire. I use Front Row and iTunes to distribute music throughout the house wirelessly to other stereos and to view what is playing now via the TV.
Here are some photos of the MacMini hooked up to the TV and using Front Row.

The photos aren't that great but you get the idea. The TV screen looks great in person as opposed to the photos with the glare and the darkness.
Some TV's don't look as good as my TV looks from what I have heard so your TV may or may not look as good. I am about to upgrade to a 42 inch Panasonic HD Plasma TV which should give an even better picture. At this time, my TV is connected to the MacMini via the "S-Video" cable. The HDMI video cable is a better choice if your TV has that capability.
The new iTV from Apple is rumored to be released sometime this coming Spring.

Looking for pages designd using iWeb

hi and greetings from germany,
i'm looking for pages designd using iWeb to get an impression how it is working. I would like to build pages with text and i would like to know if it is possible to change or delete the placeholders for photos in the templates.
sorry - i can only use that english i learnd at school long ago ... ;-))

http://www.happyadam.com
The URL above points to my iWeb - spent a couple of hours with this over the weekend. It's quite flexible - takes a little getting used to (if you've used Pages then it's similar). There's not many templates but it's a good starting point.
The worst thing is the .Mac servers - they're very slow for hosting these iWebs as many others have found.

Looking for sample code using "first_tab" and "next_tab"

Looking for sample code using "first_tab" and "next_tab". How is it used with ItemID within a dialog box? I've read the reference books - don't understand it.

Hi Ray,
There are several ways to do this, and in the example I created, I actually did not end up using shift registers. I've attached some example code that basically multiplies the period by the duty cycle percentage to achieve the number of milliseconds to be high and low.
You would just need to insert your DIO code in each frame of the sequence structure.
Hope that helps. Kind regards,

Need Photoshop Elements RAW plugin for Canon 70D using MAC

Need Photoshop Elements RAW plugin for Canon 70D using MAC - please advise where I can find it to download. Thanks.

To work with the Canon 70D, you will need Camera Raw version 8.2 or later:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
In order to work with this version of Camera Raw, you will need Photoshop Elements 12:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
If you do not have Photoshop Elements 12, you can use the DNG converter to convert the CR2 files to DNG, which will then work in whatever version of Photoshop Elements you have:

current market price for that box is in the US$600 range. If they are looking for more than that, the stealing is going the other way.
That system will be good for software develeopment for a VERY Brief time. The new 10.9 Mavericks (announced but not yet shipped) is likley to obsolete the last version of xCode you can run on it.
You really should look for a 2009 or later for best Value.

Looking for an iPad(iPad/Mac) app that allows for playlists to migrate to iPad

I am specifially and exclusively looking for recommendations for an iPad(iPad/Mac) app that allows for my playlists to be migrated to iPad intact and playable.
iTunes -> Podcast/Music/Videos does not support mixed (music/video/podcast) playlits or video playlist at all. The app(s) should be able to easily create these playlist on the Mac (and manage content) much like iTunes (10).
On the phone with tech support today and they agree this is missing functionality from Apple. They suggested I reach out on to other users that may have a thrid party solution.

Requires each device/user have an unique Apple ID(verifiable email address):
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-friends/id466122094?mt=8
Otherwise you can use Find My Phone, but requires logging in for each separate user. Find My Friends(built by Apple) will show everyone's location on one device.

Looking for app to use for reminder of customers service days

I am a Chimney Sweep and I'm looking for an app i can have on my iPad & iMac that i can set reminders for customers service days, they could be a year ahead but its reminder for me to then tell the customer its time to have your chimney cleaned.
Thanks for any help.

Lee,
Have you looked through the Mac App store yet? If you have and haven't found anything then I'd suggest using a database such as FileMaker Pro to manage that. You may even find a template where someone has created a FileMaker Pro program that you can download and/or buy that does what you want.

Looking for a cross platform (Mac+Win) Photo+Movie organizer.

Hello,
I am not sure as to where to post this, but I am desperately looking for a program to organize my photos and movies on both platforms. iPhoto is great, but I can't use it on my win PC, Adobe Elements is perfect... on windows, but is gimped on a Mac (no organization features), Lightroom is ok... but doesn't organize my movies, and Aperture is mac only.
I have my livrary of pictures on an external disc, and was hoping to be able to roganize, tag, modify, and add keywords via my Mac AND PC.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for you input and insight on this matter!

Nah, you still get the points for the wonderful tip! What a life saver! Thanks so much! I think I agree with you as for the version to get, the non pro version will probably fit my needs fine... I still have 20 days to make up my mnd though.
On the other hand, I was wondering about the organization capabilities of this software: I was thinking of organizing all my pictures with keywords, as in if a picture was taken in NY, I am on it, and it is at night, I was thinking of adding the following keywords: NY, me, night.
The reason for that is that the keywords are written to the metadata of the picture file, and is permanent (as in not stored inside of iView's catalog).
The real question is that iView seems to offer many other possibilites of filing my pictures: it has a People, Places, Events (...) fields also. Are those also written to the metadata of my picture files? Would they be read by any other program? I am asking, because, if ever I switch programs in the distant future, I don't want to have to resort my whole collection (which I have to do right now since I am migrating from the windows version of Adobe Elements which stored all of the tags in a proprietary format).
Bah, I am sure this isn't the place to ask for these questions... but hey, you seem to know alot about this little gem of a program.
Thanks!

Which format for External HD using Mac OSX Windows Xp, and Vista?

Hi
I've had problems with using an extermal HD and am looking for some further information...
I have recently purchased a 500 g external iomega hard drive. I need it to be compatible with my mac using osx, and with pc's using both Windows XP and vista. I will routinely be needing to transfer files from all three platforms.
I had reformatted my hard drive to FAT32 on the pc using windows xp and it worked fine, then took it home and used in on my mac, and it is now no longer recognized on the pc.
The HD is under disk manager is showing that it is formatted as FAT32 but I cannot use the drive. I cannot download programs to use on the PC's to make the drive compatible but could on the mac.
What are my best options to share files reliably?
Thanks

Add NTFS write support to Mac OS instead.
MacFUSE +3G is a good start.

What to look for in a used iBook G3?

Hi, I'm in the process of looking at a used iBook G3 with 640 MB SDRAM and 40 GB HD. Anything I should look for that could make or break a deal?
(I'm new to Apple and have never owned or used one)!
thanks in advance

I believe that only the 900 MHz G3 iBook came with a 40 GB hard drive standard.
http://everymac.com/systems/apple/ibook/stats/ibook_900.html
Don't pay much attention to the price listed there. It's usually too high. A better check on price is eBay's list of Completed listings. (You will have to sign in to eBay to see the search results.)
If you are looking at that model, a Combo drive (so you can burn CD's) will be standard. It's a nice feature.
If you want to have wireless internet access, make sure that it already has the AirPort card installed because the original AirPort card that any G3 iBook requires is becoming scarce and expensive since Apple stopped selling them a couple of years ago. Plan on spending $130 (or more) for a used AirPort card if it doesn't have one.
Good luck. If you get one, you're gonna love it.

How to look for my ipod using the serial number

Looking for my stolen ipod using my serial number. Where do I go to do this?

You do not. The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours if it is recovered.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have to iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.
- Apple will do nothing
