Posting here as there seems to be little activity in Shockwave forums
Ok stupid question, but Do I have Shockwave player?
I don’t ever recall installing it nor do I want it but some odd things make me wonder if I have it
If I do, then I haven’t updated it and that concerns me.
When I look in these location, I do not find it:
C:\ProgramFiles
Start>Programs
(I have Vista OS)
Control Panel> Programs> Programs and Features
But when I look in
C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files
I see this item Shockwave Active X control 4kb size version 11.5.1.601
Also when I check in my browser under tools> manage add-ons I see this as an add on that was used at one time by my browser (and still shows enabled)
Shockwave Active X SwDir.dll
It also indicates that this dll is located in C:\Windows\System32\Adobe\Director
When I look in C:\Windows there is NOT an adobe folder
When I run a search on my computer looking for SwDir.dll, I find nothing on m computer like that
Now when I uninstall FLASH PLAYER and I go to like yahoo.com and look in my manage addo-ns, there is Shockwave Active X SwDir.dll, showing, but ONLY if FLASH PLAYER is uninstalled
Oh I use Vista 32 Bit OS with Vista SP2 and IE7 browser
I'm wondering if what I am seeing are just remnants of maybe a previous installation of shockwave player? and that is why I can't actually find them?

Too little activity in the discussion boards - restore link to support page
I've noticed that there is not as much activity in the forums I visit. Is this malaise all over the boards? If it is, don't you think that re-storing the links to the Discussion Forums (i.e. the ones in the old perfectly acceptable navigational purple menu bar) would help bring in some traffic?
fyi, it's still extremely annoying to be typing a message in the post box and then find suddenly your message is being posted in the subject box because the website moved your cursor while you were already typing in the box where you put your cursor.
And I don't know why my "OS" has vanished even though it was set in my profile.Hi Marlinespike!
To me, the forums for the new iPods (and from what I've seen of the new Leopard forums) are exploding with activity. (A lot of topics, though, seem to surround specific features, what you don't like about the product, what could make it better, lots of controversy, etc. which seems to happen every time a new product or version of something comes out, but not neccessarily after it's been released for awhile).
Of course, neither of those two (new iPods and Leopard), though, compare to the wild activity and arguments that broke out in the infamous iPhone pre-release fora.
Still, I'm sure that other forums of older products/software, like iBook, previous iLife versions, etc. (which don't have much hyped up interest these days) have slowed down lately, like you've said. I agree, adding a direct link to AD from the Support website would probably pick up activity in some of the other categories.
I remember when they added a link to AD a little while back (not a tab at the top, but a link in the middle of the main Support page, which actually is still there today). There was some increased activity, it seems.
By the way, y'all can directly send your Support website feedback to the appropriate people through this page:

It turns off randomly and sometimes when I try to turn it back on, it doesn't turn on right away. Sometimes it would take multiple tries before it actually turns back on. I have read many posts regarding this and there seems to be no solution. The bad thing about this also is that I don't have a warranty either.
Because there is a hardware problem.
Apple has an out of warranty or not covered under the warranty "repair" price which pays for an exchange at a discounted price off the full retail sales price, or if you qualify for upgrade pricing with your carrier you can purchase a 4S or iPhone 5 for about the same or not much more depending on storage capacity. -

This doesn't belong here, but there doesn't seem to be a thread for it.
I ordered a macbook. I discovered that there is a required signing upon delivery. I will not be home for the delivery, I do not have a printer, and I do not have someone to sign for me. I am trying to change the shipping address to store pick-up, but I cannot find a selection for that now that it has been ordered.
I tried calling Apple, but after sitting on hold for awhile their music began to become nothing but bogus noise. When I called back, they were no longer accepting more phone calls. I tried to cancel my order so that I could re-order it and possibly THEN select a pick-up option before purchase, but was told I would have to cancel over the phone.
I simply changed the shipping address to the apple store that I want. But that might cause problems; I'm unsure if it works that way.
Anyone have any inkling what I can do? The FAQ is of no help.

"Not enough disk space" when there seems to be (+ rapid memory consumption)
[Note: I originally posted this in the iDVD section, but due to an answer I got there to another question and further conversations with my daughter, figured out this is probably an iMovie question?]
I'm a newbie to iDVD and iMovie and Forums (my last Mac was a Performa 6360--still using it for the family budget). I got my daughter a MacBook as a graduation gift. She is using it to combine movie inputs from a wedding/reception that come from digital camreas and a couple of video cameras. We went to Flip4Mac to get the necessary software/features to import .wmv files (only way we could download one of the video cameras was by going from PC to Mac--can't remember if it was a Sony or Canon).
Issue: When she tries to import vidoes into iMovie HD 6.0.3 which have already been transferred to her computer, she gets: "The file could not be imported: There is not enough disk space to import Macintosh HD/Users/julie/pictures/iPhoto Library/Originals/2007/Roll8/CIMG1442.AVI" [She says this is about a 4 min. clip.]
Basically the question is how to get more room on her disk to import and to save? She seems to only be able to Save--she can't Save Project as an option because it says she doesn't have enough disk space (she's already deleted the Trash). Help says you need to have more than 400mb of free space or it gets difficult but the indicator shows 28.8GB free space left...so there seems to be some kind of disconnect?? (Or maybe we're talking apples and oranges?)
[Even more disturbing, just in the last couple of days with only a little time spent on the computer, the 28.8 GB has dropped to 2.3GB--obviously there is something she is doing that she is not aware of or shouldn't be doing that is consuming memory at a rapid pace.] On top of that, she also gets the same error message when she tries to burn the project onto a disk using iDVD???
I went through the first 5 pages of the forum and couldn't see a similar problem, but then I may have not known what to look for?
Any help would be greatly appreciated...she's trying to give the DVD as a Wedding gift--somewhat belated.Hello Karstn Schluter,
This is fm's daughter who is havin ghte difficulites. at the end you tell me to try to answer 1-8 so i will try.
1- how can you tell if the avi is containing divx? or not?? do I need to just keep this in mind when importing these files
2- I have not brought in an external drive. I did try making my laptop computer a harddrive so I could import my imovie poject to my eMAC at one point, but it was not allowing me to do that either. Because I had to have it in DVD form or something
3- No I did not segment the internal drive....sorry How do you do that??? Right now I am trying to find out what is taking up all the memory and Hard Disk Drive space....i do not know how to do that either....Do you know how???
4-Yes I know flip4mac is for wmv....I guess what that question was emplying was that I also have wmv files that I am trying to import to imovieHD and that is not working either...I can get my avi to get into imovieHD, but not my wmv. files
5-THank you for the tip with the trash then another question to this one how do you delet projects that are taking up memory that are no longer in use?
6-Thank you for the tip...so then ignore the not enough disk space.....how can you alter the disk space so that you can save the project under save project as and not just save project?
7- Sorry my dad was miss informed I cannot import the wmv. files to imovie and I cannot import imovie to iDVD I only have transferred one and then all of the other files are not seen as movies so I can not import them?? Does that make since
8- When we were useing the Sony Camera originally we could not import the video to the MAC because it did not have the correct firewire cable and it would not been read onto the MAC computer. So, we have to buy the flip4mac equipment so that I would be able ot download the inoformation to the computer by a wmv.file dvd so we are having difficulites trying to import that file.
I hope these answers clear up the question a little bit more and sorry that your answers brought out more questions. Thank you very much for helping me. I was using a different program in my college class so changing to imovie and idvd has been a huge struggle for me. Thank you once again. -
There seems to be a R9 290/X 2D Core Clock problem...
Right, a little background info; I am currently using my THIRD MSI 290X Lightning (Bought from Overclockers uk, First two were from Amazon.co.uk)
All three cards had random freeze/stalls or instant sudden reboots on tasks such as playing VLC, using Chrome, Catalyst (CCC) etc.
Upon upgrading my PSU and these problems still persisiting, I was very concerned and researched more and more. I found that alot of people are having trouble with this aswell on several different cards (Ranging from 260X to 290X, including the 290) several from different manufacturers too!
The fix for me:
- Solving VLC/Video Playback crashes (doesn't solve Youtube crashes): Disable "Enforce Smooth Video Playback" in CCC Global Video Quality settings.
EDIT: The above was no longer required after I changed the 2D Clocks... All VLC and youtube video playback work perfectly with the below fix/workaround...
- Preventing Freezes/reboots on simple 2D Clock based tasks (e.g. GPU @ 300Mhz/idle)
To solve this one, GPU tweak was required to change the 2D core clock settings from 300Mhz to 600Mhz, I am quite annoyed at this as such expensive cards should not have weird niggles like this... could we reach out to MSI and AMD for this? :(
I'd much rather a Driver/MSI BIOS fix...
PS. If I close GPU Tweak at any time, crashes soon follow (this is because the 2D core clocks are then allowed to go down to 300Mhz again) I really do not want to force a modded BIOS...Hi
Re: There seems to be a R9 290/X 2D Core Clock problem...
Yep same problem here, purchased an MSI 290 Gaming 1 month ago, amazing graphics card for the first 2 weeks whilst I played nothing but Bio Shock, BF4 and World of tanks.
Then then my daughters who are both into Minecraft wanted to use the computer, they play and watch You Tube at the same time. That's when the Blue Screens started. I have build a lot of PC in my time and starting researching on the forums. That's were I discovered the 3 issues with this card Blue and Black screens of death and Shockwave problems.
Don't get the Black Screen, so I followed the instructions and pretty sure I fixed the Video player problems, but not the issue you highlighted. Spoke to the supplier of the card last week and agreed to try several things before RMA. Went through various driver installation sequences, removed other hardware, checked Bios setting, followed various internet fixes that wouldn't damage the computer and swapped back to my old 5870 twice which work 100%. Nothing Worked, I have a 850watt PSU with 70A 12 volt rail, and the card works fine under load.
I agree this a 2d-3d switching problem, confirmed by World of Tanks works fine in 3d but BSOD when going back to menu, Marvel Super Heros same thing. Minecraft also crashes but not sure why. load game leave it sit there with no one playing, come back 10 minutes later. Computer has restarted.
Some one said to up the PCI Express frequency, tried this, seemed to work but had to reinstall windows 2 hours later. I also checked out setting customer profiles, but why should I?!!. One of the reason I bought this card was because of the low idle power consumptions in 2d. Plus I can't expect my 7 and 10 year old daughters to swap profiles around when they use my computer.
My Question is that given there are a lot of people having these problems. There are thousands of posts on the net, why is the only comment from AMD. A post from one of their forum administrators complaining that people are using bad language on their forums. To make matters worse this post is almost 12 months old and still no fix??? No wonder people are annoyed.
So I will politely ask you guys at MSI if you can shed some light on this.
I will be copying this post and pasting it into my RMA form later this week if I can't finger anything else out , I am just worried if it goes back they will just load test the card under 3d and send it back to me again. In this case it'll go on EBAY. -
There seems to be an issue with opendns free servers
''(Locked. Not a support question. See bold text for reasons of locking -m)''
This is more of a "I found it" than a question as this seems to be an issue with the opendns free DNS servers related to certain torrent sites and the duckduckgo search engine. However any thoughts are appreciated.
While looking for a solution I followed troubleshooting steps found here to no avail regarding cookies (I'm accepting them from everyone including third party cookies and their dogs), clearing cookies (do that all the time as a matter of routine, did it again several times), clearing the cache (did that, got the T-shirt, now I'll never be naked) and checked the about:config setting (I forget which one but it was already set to 20, the default)
Note that I can eliminate these issues completely by setting my DNS to "automatic" however I've been using opendns free DNS servers for years and have changed nothing except when troubleshooting this issue.
The following is a detailed description. It can be confusing if you don't read it carefully:
I had this happen on several torrent sites however I can get through on others but when I choose the .torrent link I get the same problem on most like at: http://kickass.to/movies/genre/news/ and the KAT mirrors... on KAT I can get to the page but the .torrent links are at http://torcache.net and I am unable to get those .torrents at all. (getting the "the page isn't redirecting properly" Firefox error message and the very long http://guidetest.a.id.opendns.com/?url=guidetest%2E (goes on forever) URL
I'll post a few links that I've tried (just to see if they work) below.
http://www.torrentz.eu/ - can't see the page at all, I get the "the page isn't redirecting properly" Firefox error message and it redirects to the URL: http://guidetest.a.id.opendns.com/?url=g...Ecom%(goes on for something like a couple of hundred characters)
Same issue with several other torrent sites...
lazypirate.net I can't get through at all - same issue
http://extratorrent.cc/ - no problem with pages or .torrents
http://isohunt.to/ - again no problem with pages or .torrents
Particular torrents I get the:"the page isn't redirecting properly" Firefox error message and it redirects to the URL: guidetest.a.id.opendns.com/?url=guidetest%2Ea%2Eid (blah blah forever) are:
http://thetorrent.org/A5F7D7D92D8CDE2576...9B.torrent : (getting the "the page isn't redirecting properly" Firefox error message and the very long http://guidetest.a.id.opendns.com/?url=guidetest%2E (goes on forver) URL
I can go on to list individual .torrents but I think you get the idea...
I've had this issue with more than a few torrents over the last couple of days and can't remember them all but further checking does seem like it's either particular torrent sites I can't access at all or on sites I can access but store their .torrent files on either torcache.net or thetorrent.org so there seems to be mixed issues, being able to see some pages but not get .torrent files from those sites if they're stored somewhere else.
On duckduckgo I get the "this site is untrusted" error.
Again, when I abandon the opendns DNS servers I've been using for years and go to "automatic" both of these issues disappear with no other changes. and I've done that several times just to verify the problem and even confirmed that the opendns server addresses are correct, which they are the same ones I've used for years.
I've emailed opendns and described the issue and they are completely confused and tell me "it must be your settings"
'''Although this doesn't seem to be a Firefox or a Windows issue, I'm using FF 28.0 on win XP Pro SP3, legal OEM copy, Pentium D, 3.66 GHz, and 4 GB or Ram (3.65 GB of RAM recognized by XP, this is normal)'''
'''Again, this issue only happens with the opendns free DNS servers I've been using for years and vanishes completely when I choose the automatic DNS setting and has only been happening a few days.'''
I have screenshots of the errors and thought there was a way to post them here but I don't see that.
The error on torrent sites is "The page isn't redirecting properly. FF has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. (and goes on to say blah blah cookies blah blah that I've checked and rechecked)
The error on duckduckgo is "This Connection is Untrusted. You have asked Firefox to connect securely to duckduckgo.com, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure." blah blah (you probably know the rest). I expect that I could add an exception but again the problem doesn't happen when using automatic DNS server detection.
I have no problems on other sites that I see.Here are the screenshots for what it's worth.
Not sure why I can't post them in the original post.<br>
<sub><b>Mod edit: See [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=718813 bug 718813]</b></sub>
'''Again, when I set my DNS server to automatically detect the servers both problems disappear and I have no issues at all.'''
IMO opendns is either doing this on purpose (unlikely) or they're under some sort of attack/being used to attack the specific torrent sites although I'm open to other explanations. I believe using the automatic setting for DNS is using my own ISP's DNS servers (which again, work fine... but still...)
I'd rather not use Google's public DNS servers as Google is to commercial these days and I think there's potential privacy issues.
'''Again I have changed the setting for DNS servers back and forth several times to duplicate/verify the issue(s)... and the issues only happen with the opendns servers.''' -

There seems to be an issue with the template that the site is using as there is a code to replace the pricing.
<script>
// Script to extract the currency and decimals from the price
var price = "{tag_saleprice}";
var priceWithoutCurrency = price.replace( /^\D+/g, '')
var decimals = priceWithoutCurrency.substring(priceWithoutCurrency.length - 2, priceWithoutCurrency.length);
var roundedPrice = priceWithoutCurrency.substring(0, priceWithoutCurrency.length - 3);
$('.image-with-price.big span').html(roundedPrice+'<sup>'+decimals+'</sup>');Here are the screenshots for what it's worth.

Random Audio spike/pop sound here and there
Hey guys, i get this spike type of audio pop from my MBP 17" output., i also hear it now with Leopard as well.
Any ideas?, please advise----Same problem here. It seems to start when the audio hardware gets switched on, lots of little annoying crackles.. it is especially obvious with my somewhat high-end studio monitors. Odd thing though, I didn't notice it until recently, after the latest round of Leopard updates (10.5.1). Could the culprit be in there? Hopefully Apple is on top of this. Well they better be, **** laptop is only 1 month old.

the classic ipod has crashed 4 times in the last 2 months. till i load 3800 to 3900 songs there seems to be no problem. but after that it just crashes and instructs me to restore to factory settings. just want to know if ipods have a finite life and need changing after this. i need urgent help at least if that is true i can save the trouble of loading songs every other week
thanks and regardsYep, iPod classic has life of about 2 years before the hardisk, starts to suffer from arthritis.
Here is a excellent post on iPod diskdiagnostic by regular tt2.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2362776?start=0&tstart=0
You can also look into getting the iPod hardisk replaced by SSD/Compact Flash, just google "iPod SSD replacement" or you can search in youtube, on how to do it yourself, if you got steady hands and hawkeye.

Fixes for Wireless Keyboard Blue Screen Crashes - POST HERE
This thread is for posting possible SOLUTIONS and FIXES to the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) issue that occurs when using Boot Camp on Windows 7 with the Apple Wireless Keyboard.
SYMPTOMS: When using the Apple Wireless keyboard with Windows 7 (for example), you'll often get a BSOD upon first keystroke when coming out of sleep or an idle period.
SETUP: Boot Camp 3.1, Snow Leopard, Windows 7 on a fairly current iMac (2009).Okay, I am having the exact same problem as the rest of you. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium on a Mac Mini and when my Apple Wireless keyboard falls asleep, pressing a key on it causes a Windows 7 BSOD. None of the previously mentioned fixes has been helpful. I think the reason that they haven't been helpful is the weird nomenclature across all the different windows versions. For instance, my Windows 7 doesn't have a "Device Manager", instead it's "Devices and Printers". There are also no "Bluetooth Radios" it's "Generic Bluetooth Adapter". But I digress.
Turning off power management through the bluetooth options definitely did not help me out at all. The BSOD just kept on showing up.
Okay, so now I may have found an actual fix to this problem. I want to be very specific about exactly what I did and how everything is named and set up in my Windows install.
First, from the start menu I selected "Devices and Printers". This opened a window with the following path laid out in the address bar "Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Devices and Printers >". From here I clicked on an icon of a keyboard that was named "Apple Wireless Keyboard". This opened a new window named "Apple Wireless Keyboard Properties". I clicked on the "Hardware" tab. There are four "Device Functions:" listed: "Bluetooth HID Device", "HID Keyboard Device", "HID-compliant consumer control device", and "HID-compliant consumer control device".
I click on "HID Keyboard Device" and then click the "Properties" button. Another window opens. Here it says the Driver Provider is "Apple". I now click the "Uninstall" button. It asks me if I'm sure I want to do this and I say yes. It asks me if I want to restart the computer and I say yes.
After restart, It asks me if I want to restart again and I say yes. Now, when I go back into the "Apple Wireless Keyboard Properties", there is still an "HID Keyboard Device" driver. However, when I check its properties it now says the Driver Provider is "Microsoft".
Everything seems to be working now. There seems to be no BSOD. The special function keys on the keyboard like volume control don't actually control the volume now. They just act like regular function keys. That may be an issue for you, but not for me. I just want to check to see how my websites render in IE and not have to restart windows every 15 minutes. -
I'm scared. Can you help? I can't jump from here to there.
Dear Apple MobileMe
I am very eager to make the move from MobileMe to iCloud, but...
As you can see from your own email, this is far from simple
My wife and I totally depend on my Macbook Pro (1), my old Powerbook that my wife uses (2), our iPhones (3 & 4), our iPad (5), my Time Machine, and my MobileMe (6), including Backups to our iDisk on MobileMe to keep our lives running.
iCal's synced across 6 Apple platforms
Address Books synced across 6 Apple platforms
Email synced across 6 Apple platforms (me using Mail and wife using AOL)
Bookmarks synced across 6 Apple platforms
Various apple ID's synced across 6 Apple platforms
You get the picture
I would hate to mess this delicately balanced Apple computer ecosystem up at all.
iOS 10.7 requires that I upgrade a bunch of my key work apps and figure out a way to transfer a 10 year dependence on Quicken onto some other equally robust financial management platform that doesn't seem to exist. Just to add insult to potential injury.
I'm scared.
Wish this whole process could be 500% more automated.
We've been on Macs and other Apple devices since 1987. I can't keep track of all of my "Apple ID's" for this and that that you've asked me to set up for each device and for each service over the years. Everything's registered with you.
Devices
MobileMe email aliases
iTunes
iDisk
App Store
AppleCare(s)
MobileMe
Apple.com support (here)
Apple ProCare
Apple iDisk Public folder
etc.
etc.
You should be able to gather all of my identities together into one place and figure out the best way to migrate me to the new Apple iCloud Garden of Eden.
You've got to find a way to help us work all this out. It's more than intimidating. We're frozen in fear. We just can't jump from here to there.

iCloud is here Dear MobileMe member,
iCloud is here and you can now make the transition from MobileMe. You can move your
MobileMe mail, contacts, calendars, and bookmarks to iCloud, and keep your me.com and
mac.com email addresses. iCloud is a breakthrough set of free cloud services, including iTunes in the Cloud, Photo Stream
and Documents in the Cloud, that works seamlessly with your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac or
PC to store your content in iCloud and push it to all your devices. When content changes on one
device, all your other devices are updated automatically and wirelessly.
Making the Move
Before moving to iCloud, make sure that your iOS devices and computers have the required
software and your data is properly backed up by following these steps:
Get iTunes 10.5.
Download iTunes 10.5 to your Mac or PC.
Update your devices to iOS 5.
Update your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch to iOS 5 by connecting each
device to your Mac or PC and following the instructions in iTunes.
When you are asked to provide your Apple ID during iOS setup, use
your MobileMe email address and password.
Update your computers.Mac: Update to OS X Lion v10.7.2PC: Update to Windows 7 or Windows Vista Service Pack 2 andinstall the iCloud Control Panel for Windows.
Back up your MobileMe data.
For detailed instructions, review this article.
Verify your contacts and bookmarks.
Verify that your contacts and bookmarks are completely up to date on
at least one device you will use with iCloud. They will be uploaded to
iCloud from your devices after you move. iCloud will not copy any
contacts or bookmarks directly from me.com.
When you are ready, go to me.com/move and follow the instructions to move your account to
iCloud.
Important Notes
If your me.com or mac.com email address is used with more than one Apple ID, you may be
unable to access some iCloud services. If this occurs, you can remove duplicate email
addresses from your other Apple IDs by visiting My Apple ID. You can also use different Apple IDs for iCloud and your Store purchases (including iTunes,
App Store and iBookstore). For more information and detailed instructions, review this article. You can make the move from MobileMe to iCloud anytime between now and June 30, 2012. For
answers to some of the most common questions about the transition, see the MobileMe
transition FAQ. Sincerely,
Apple
iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer
with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is
required for accessing email, contacts and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features
are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices. Previous purchases may be
unavailable if they are no longer in the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBookstore.
MobileMe is a service provided by Apple • Terms of Service • Privacy Policy
Copyright © 2011 Apple Inc. • 1 Infinite Loop, Cupertino, CA 95014
You are receiving this email from Apple to notify you of service information regarding your MobileMe account.This is a user-to-user forum: you aren't talking to Apple here.
I do sympathize with your situation: you are among many for whom upgrading is impracticable, but who are dependent on MobileMe facilities which will be withdrawn next June.
As you say, you will need 10.7.2 to access iCloud on a Mac, and iOS5 for mobile devices.
I can't offer you any easy solutions, but this list may at least clarify the exact situation for you:
Your email, calendars, contacts and bookmarks, and 'Find my iPhone' will be migrated to iCloud.
Your iDisk, together with website hosting and Gallery. will continue to work as before until next June.
You will be able to access email, calendar and contacts on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point. BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion.
There appears to be no method of syncing contacts (though Address Book on a Mac can be synced with Google or Yahoo address books - I don't know how reliable this is). -
"Not enough disk space" when there seems to be
I'm a newbie to iDVD and iMovie (my last Mac was a Performa 6360--still using it for the family budget) and got my daughter a MacBook as a graduation gift. She is using it to combine movie inputs from a wedding/reception that come from digital camreas and a couple of video cameras. We went to Flip4Mac to get the necessary features to import .wmv files (only way we could download one of the vidoe cameras).
Issue: When she tries to import vidoes already on her computer, she gets: "The file could not be imported: There is not enough disk space to import Macintosh HD/Users/julie/pictures/iPhoto Library/Originals/2007/Roll8/CIMG1442.AVI"
Basically the question is how to get more room on her disk to import and to save? She seems to only be able to Save--she can't Save Project as an option because it says she doesn't have enough disk space (she's deleted the trash). Help says you need to have more than 400mb of free space or it gets difficult but the indicator shows 28.8GB free space left...so there seems to be some kind of disconnect?? (Or maybe we're talking apples and oranges?)
On top of that, she also gets the same error message when she tries to burn the project onto a disk???
I went through the first 5 pages of the forum and couldn't see a similar problem, but then I may have not known what to look for?
Any help would be greatly appreciated...she's trying to give the DVD as a Wedding gift--somewhat belated.I'm a newbie to iDVD and iMovie (my last Mac was a Performa 6360--still using it for the family budget) and got my daughter a MacBook as a graduation gift.
