Hi Malcs,
Don't know if you're in the U.K. but PC World are doing a good deal on the HP w2207h - £199.
Just bought one for my Mac Mini and am extremely pleased with it - worked straight out of the box at its 1680 x 1050 resolution, it's very clear, at least to my ancient eyes, and the colours are superb and it comes with several presets i.e Movie; Photo; Gaming; Text and custom. It also comes on a stand that is height adjustable and tilts & swivels you can even turn it to portrait mode should that be your thing.
On top of that it also looks visually superb, to me at least, seems extremely well made and the on/off button is located on the top edge, unlike a lot of monitors, so you don't get the blue 'on light' staring you in the face all the time.
As I stated earlier, couldn't be more happy with my purchase, and I initially went to PC World to compare the LG and the Samsung.

Please help new to macs and my recently purchased power mac keeps freezing :-(

Hi apple community!
I recently purchased a power mac g5
Specs;
G5 power mac dual core (2.0)
Power pc 970 mp
Late 2005
I don't have an apple mouse/keyboard
I just use $40 wireless mouse keyboard.
Upon purchase everything seemed to work as it should....booted up, open and closing apps without freezing.
However I never had it connected to the Internet when I navigated through system.
I got it home and installed a 1 tb harddrive (WD mainstream desktop) from future shop. When I installed it in tower I had to buy a sata 2.0 cable as there was not one available for use. Booted up fine and installation went as my research said it should. Turned it on next day....
Tried to update iTunes and this is where it started actin up. First just froze had to turn off, second time wouldn't even boot up plus fans went into overdrive. Third forth fifth sixth boots fans sometimes kick in, now whenever I try to do any kind of action it freezes. (Only when I click something)
I read about possible power suppy issue, so I plugged tower and monitor into seperAte plugs,
They may however be in same circuit because they at in the same wall...would a power conditioner fix this?
Anyway still froze on any action tried...just opened disk drive...opened then frooze...?
Anybody have any ideas??
Please help
Not sure if this is correct OS ( looked up using serial #)
Max operating system OSX 10.5.8 leaporad
Earliest supported OSX version ; 10.4.2 tiger.

Sorry for the late reply. I want to thank you for taking the time to help me.
Not sure exactally where I could get something like this your speaking of.
Update; I have removed the harddrive and will most
Likely just use an external one, if the computer will even work.
I ended up taking it in to geeksquad at best buy, they had it for 3 days and also told me after the fact that neither of the techs working on it knew much about macs :-( needless to say I requested my
Money back due to the fact that the service I paid for could not be completed and literally couldn't tell me anything more than what's below.
They told me that they could not dock it with thier diagnostic machine, kept restarting on them and the one fella said it was overheating but had no idea why. When I brought it home again I tried it once more computer boots up to desktop as usual, this time had a asterisk window saying " the computer was restarted after mac OSX quit unexpectedly" however my cursor was again locked in the top left of the screen. Would not move, so I could not view the report, shortly after fans kicked into overdrive. I'm losing hope for this machine rapidly. I'm all ears when it comes to anything I may be able to do.
Should I try an actual apple keyboard/mouse just to eliminate that possible?
If you have ideas AWSOME, If not, no worries, ill take it into the mac store and see what they say
P.s the machine is clean inside little to no dust and the tech said he was going to clean it out, hard to tell if he did because it was clean clean before I brought it to him.
Thanks again for the help you have given me so far and in the future
I look forward to hearing back
Sincerally

Please help - New to Mac - File managment.. moving files, folders, deleting

Hello, I am hoping someone can help me...
I have just got one of the 24" iMacs at work and I have never worked on Mac before. I am having problems with documents/files.
I have made new folders in my "documents" folder but I cannot move/drag files into the folders. I also cant delete files from the documents folder.
I have spent the last 4 hours reading tutorials etc and still can't figure this out. I am guessing it's probably simple... but I just can't seem to find the answer.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

There are two documents folders. One shared among all user and a personal documents folder.
To get to the system folder you double click on the machintosh hd. You will see the system documents folder here. If you are not logged on with system administrator privileges, the files will be read only. To tell if you have administrator privileges, do:
apple icon > system preferences > accounts
click on your account and see if the allow user to administer this computer box is checked.
One way get your person documents folder, you double click on the machintosh hd. Next, click on the little house icon on the lower left side of the screen. This will get to all your personal files and folders. One of the folders is your documents folder.
I agree with the prior poster to find someone who has worked with the mac before to give you a quick tutorial.
I suggest you visit the local library or book store and checkout or buy a book on using Mac OS Tiger.

Please help - new to Mac. Storage options for 11" MBA 128GB

Hi,
I am a PC laptop user considering moving over to a MBA 11". I need portability and I'm worried about the storage capacity for the MBA at 11" - I'm on a budget. The next step up for me would be the 13" MBP for storage space/cost (and then I start getting confused about Serial ATA/SSD).
I currently estimate to have about 80-90GB of files on my PC (I estimated this from what's on my PC, and guessing at extras on my external HD). Most of this is music and photos from years of travel that I do not want to lose. My external HD once stopped working and I lost photos, so I never want that to happen again.
I understand I can also get an external HD for the MBA, as well as back everything up with Time Capsule/Machine.
Are there any other solid options?
Is it too risky to store all music/photos solely on external drives, leaving the main machine free for work?
The main things I will be using it for are writing, iTunes, streaming TV/movies, web browsing and blogging, and some light photo editing.
Thanks for your help!

Is it too risky to store all music/photos solely on external drives, leaving the main machine free for work?
If you don't have them backed up to another hard drive, yes. I have a MacBook Air with a 256GB drive but I have about 3.5 TB of media (which is backed up on other drives). I keep a small selection of my photos, music, and video on the MBA but the rest is on a network accessable drive. If I have WiFi I can access the data on that drive. It is a pretty good solution.

Please help me to understand what is the meaning of Acess point Channel utilization?

       please help me to understand what is the meaning of Acess point Channel utilization? If i want to mange the capacity of my Office Wi-Fi network what are the factor i need to monitor.

Hi Ankit,
Channel Utilization
The 802.11, 802.11b, and 802.11g standards use the same 2.4 GHz band. All must interoperate with each other, which introduces additional overhead reducing channel throughput. Many sites already have products using the Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz band. Additionally, there are many other products that use the same 2.4 GHz frequencies as used by Wi-Fi. Other products include Bluetooth, cordless phones, video game controllers, surveillance cameras, and microwave ovens.
Before the installation of the Cisco Unified Wireless Network, a site can be tested for channel interference and utilization with tools from AirMagnet, Wild Packets, Cognio, and others. The Wireless Control System (WCS) AP On-Demand Statistics Display report provides a spectrum review of the following:
•Noise by channel
•Interference by channel
•Client count versus RSSI
•Client count versus SNR
•Channel radar detection versus time

My macbook is blocked by pin code, please help, I dont know what to do!

My macbook is blocked by pin code, please help, I dont know what to do!

When you enter iTunes on the PC and the iPod icon pops up, right click on it and select "Options". Then click on the Music tab. Once you're in the Music tab check the box that says "Enable Disc Use". This means that you've just turned your iPod into a portable hard drive. Click "Ok" and move your iPod from the PC to the Mac. From there, your iPod should show up on the Mac's desktop right under the Hard Drive icon. Click "File" at the top of the screen and select "Add to Library". Find the iPod hard drive in the selection screen and choose the music folder that's on it. Then just click Ok and all your music will be downloaded. That should do the trick, but you might want to do a Google search on the subject to get a second opinion. Best wishes!

Make sure all of the videos used in the project that is having that problem are from the same event. If they are from multiple events, move them all into one event.

These are user-to-user forums, I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post.
Apple and/or iTunes support can't locate it for you, only you can potentially locate it via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone / Find My iPad on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPhone disabled on it.
If it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

My macbook pro will not play a video without pausing every 11 seconds. PLEASE help me figure out what is wrong. very frustrating

my macbook pro will not play a video without pausing every 11 seconds. PLEASE help me figure out what is wrong. very frustrating. I have already tried restarting

buckmacie,
has the video been completely downloaded onto your MacBook Pro when you start to play it? Or are you playing it while it downloads, AKA streaming it?

Please help me figure out what's wrong with my girls fairly new Toshiba lap top.

OK as of late my girl got a nice new laptop. It started off really fast and she was really happy with it. But in the past three weeks or so it's been acting up. It's not connecting to the Wi-Fi properly, and won't read and other available confections. If we reset and restart it one of two times that usually does the trick but the last time took 3 restarts before connecting to the right the way it was made to. To top it all off though. We were just laying down and she had heard the cooling fan going in it. This is odd because I had used it last and i always meme site to shut it down properly. But to my dismay when she picked it up and showed me I could clearly tell it was the cooling fan and that the lights on the side indicated that it was still on. What would cause these things to happen like this and more importantly, what can I do to not only fix the issues, but to stop this from becoming potentialy a bigger and worse problem? Please, anyone with any knowledge on this matter. Please help me out to prevent this from becoming a bigger more expensive issue. Thank you everyone for your time and you only would be greatly appreciated. The model number for this lasso to is XXXXXXXXX. Again thank you

Hi again. It seems like there is information people are looking for to help you that they don't have. It occurs to me that you have a new Mac and you perhaps have an Apple Store with a Genius Bar in your area. A great experience for you might be to visit one and let them setup your mail for you (for free) and debug, if there is a problem of any sort. You can make an advanced reservation at Apple Stores at http://www.apple.com/buy/. Select the nearest store and make reservation. If you haven't been in an Apple Store, you're in for a treat.

lyle6068, welcome to Apple Discussions & the Mac community.
Generally you can drag the app to the Trash. You can also use the freeware AppDelete @ http://reggie.ashworth.googlepages.com/appdelete
Suggest you buy the book by David Pogue - Mac OS X The Missing Manual Panther Edition.
Includes everything you need to know about installing OS X, using OS X & maintaining OS X.
 Cheers, Tom
