Question about iBooks

well, i have an ipod touch 32gb 3rd gen with iOS 4 and i've downloaded the ibooks app but when i browse in the ibookstore none of the books have any artwork. My question is if this is because i'm in ecuador (south america) and i have an ecuadorian Apple ID and all of the books from the ecuadorian ibookstore don't have artworks?? or this is caused by a bug of the ibooks app?? or something else?? Thanks for your help and sorry for my english as i said i'm ecuadorian and my first language is spanish.

The largest free book provider is gutenberg project which doesn't provide unique artwork just the title name. You could find unique artwork using the internet after syncing your books back to itunes. You could replace the artwork like you do when adding artwork to a song. This is what I've done.

A Cautionary Tale + Question about ibook hard drive

I made the switch to Mac almost two years ago; I love my ibook G4, but I wish I had purchased AppleCare. Now I've got an odd HD problem and I'm wondering if anyone else has had something similar happen.
Right now the HD is OK; obviously, I'm using it to post this message. But fairly often I will get the whirly, the computer will absolutely freeze (no F9, no option-command-escape, nothing). Guess what makes it better? Tilting the entire computer up at about a 30 degree angle! Everything goes back to normal--the HD kicks back into place, the whirly goes away, and my computer is fine--until I place the computer on a level surface again.
I have a theory as to why this is happening, and I'm wondering whether it's correct. Stupidly, I have in the past carried my ibook around while it's open. Recently I heard an odd groaning sound coming from the HD while doing so. I bet that I scratched the HD somehow or loosened it in some way that it only works when it's tilted in a certain direction. Do I need to replace the HD? I'm on level ground right now, and, knock on wood, everything's OK.
Any similar experiences out there, or responses to my theory? Thank you.
iBook G4 800 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Andrew, if you're booted from a Mac OS X 10.3.x (Panther) install disk, you should be able to open the Disk Utility from the Installer menu without actually installing Mac OS X. What does the Disk Utility tell you about your iBook's hard drive? Is the S.M.A.R.T. status failing? Are you able to "repair disk" and/or "repair disk permissions" on the hard drive? Have you run the Apple Hardware Test CD? Although it does seem to sound like a hard drive hardware issue, before you go about replacing the hard drive, it might be a good idea to go through these troubleshooting steps to eliminate things like a bad logic board first. What if you go about the cost and time to replace the hard drive but it's actually the ATA controller on the logic board that's the problem?

Questions about iBooks?

Hi guys, is iBook completely free? And does iBooks read PDF files?

If the ibooks within the iBookstore are not free then yes they would show their price. Depending on which country you are in then you may only see (and therefore be able to download) free books - in order to sell more recent books (i.e. not older 'classics') Apple needs to be given permission by the copyrightholder/publisher to sell them in that country, so if they havn't been given permission they can't sell them.

Quick question about iMovie

I have a question about iMovie. I've used Final Cut Pro before using iMovie, and FCP allowed the user to play two video/images on top of each other. You could play with the opacity and the duration very easily.
I'm wondering, can you do the same thing with iMovie? I'll be VERY disappointed if you can't do it.
iBook G4

Hi
And You could take a look at the plug-ins to iMovie.
- Stupendous software http://www.stupendous-software.com
- GeeThree http://www.geethree.com
- cf/x. http://www.imovieplugins.com
and possibly more.
QT-pro can do this as said above - but You need to be very precise.
But I would do this in FCP and then export as QT.mov to do the rest in iMovie
if necessary.

Going Abroad - Question About Voltage Converter Stuff

Hello, so I am going abroad for a few months (the Netherlands), and I have a question about voltage converter stuff. All of the voltage converters I can find say powers heat-producing appliances rated 500-1600 and converts foreign voltage of 220-240 volts to U.S. voltage 110-120. However, it says not to use on appliances under 500 watts such as computers. So first, off does anyone know how many watts an ibook g4 14" puts off. Secondly, I read that laptops have a dual adapter and that they can work on the 220-240 volts converter. Does anyone have any ideas about these issues; any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Brandon,
Welcome to the Discussions.
Your iBook's power adapter is rated for 100-240v. All you need is an adapter for the plug so it will fit in a European outlet. You can find them at travel stores or online for a few dollars.

A question about Tiger installation via firewire

A friend of mine took her A1055 14.1" 1.33Ghz iBook G4 to someone to have a bad hard drive replaced. Before he returned it, without asking her, he removed Tiger and installed Leopard on it. Her base memory is only 256MB, storage 60GB so, as might be expected, once she reinstalled all the necessary apps she has to use in her line of work, her iBook became sludge. It constantly freezes up; something it never did before he installed Leopard. She can't afford, at this time, to move up to a MacBook, so she's asked me if I can help her get back to TIger. (The guy who installed Leopard isn't interested in correcting things.)
This question, before I begin: I don't have retail TIger disks (and she doesn't, either), but I do have the bundled disks that came with my old pet, an A1054 12" G4. Both iBooks do have DVD drives, but, of course, these are bundled disks. Should I be able to successfully skirt the "bundled" issue and install Tiger on her machine via firewire? I plan to save her important files to a flash before I begin but, since she's running Leopard (if you can call what it's doing "running"...) I'll have to erase her hard drive. I'm hesitant to do this, if someone here knows any reason my 12" bundled software won't work with her 14.1" iBook, even though it was running Tiger before. Since I primarily use a MacBook, I'm a bit reckless when it comes to erasing my own iBook's hard drive, but I'm reluctant to do so to hers, if all I might potentially end up with is an empty iBook.
I've never been afraid to ask a stupid question; see how brave I am.

Getting around to answering the question about my own iBook: the one I keep next to me is model is A1133. Entering its serial number into this site confirms that TIger was its original OS, so those particular bundled disks are to be expected. But my old A1054's serial number reveals, as you pointed out, that it's OS was 10.3.3. This begs the question: why, when I purchased it as a re-furb at my local Apple Store, several years ago, did it come all neatly boxed, not only with user manuals and stickers, but bundled Tiger disks? I suppose "Apple re-furb" is the short answer, but the "bundled" part is a bit fuzzy.
Well, back to the original question, Ronda, regarding my friend's iBook and the fact that the guy who worked on it installed Leopard, without her consent: Yesterday, I was mulling it over, and, remembering that her RAM was only 256, decided that, before I did anything else, I'd up her RAM to see if this helped Leopard run any better. I pulled a 1 GB card from my "parts" iBook and popped it in. I'm running it through its paces, today, to watch its behavior.
If it continues to object to having Leopard as its OS, then would the bundled disks that came with my A1133 allow me to install Tiger onto her HD, via firewire, since its production year was more recent? (I apologize that, at the time I originally posted, I'd not remembered that the A1133 also came with disks. If you could see all the Macs stacked around this place, perhaps you could forgive that oversight.)

ESD question on iBook repair

I am going to do a self-repair to an iBook G3 because the machine is out of warranty. I have the necessary tools and repair guide thanks to iFixIt. I am just wondering if anyone can answer these questions about using an ESD wristband, to prevent an electo-static discharge:
1) Is there an ideal spot to attach the alligator clip (on the iBook or any machine)?
2) Should a power cord be attached? It seems to stand to reason that, when attached, there is a direct connection to ground through the plug's grounding wire, but I seem to remember in my past that having a computer plugged in while doing a repair is a bad idea.
Any help is appreciated.
iBook (14.1 LCD 900 MHz 32 VRAM)
1.5 GHz PowerBook G4 | 2.1 GHz iMac G5 | 30GB 5th Gen. iPod Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Okay.
Before you unplug it and start, assemble all your tools so you don't have to get up from your chair during the procedure. Sit down, touch any one of the metal rims around one of the rubber feet. Then unplug the adapter from the iBook and remove the battery.
When you remove the keyboard, touch the RAM shield with the clip to make sure that you have equalized any static electricity.
After you have removed the bottom case, you can attach the clip to the metal edge of the battery compartment.

Question about OS X9 | OS X10 uninstall

Hoping someone can help where to post some questions about OS-X9, OS-X10.4.11 and Tiger. I'm not sure where in Discussions to post questions about uninstalling OS-X9 or part of it to free up HD space.
Do I post under iBook ... Tiger ... OS-X9 ... where?

Possible newbe to Appleworld has 11 questions about Ipad2

Hello everybody,
As a Windows user I am very interested in the Ipad 2 as so to become a member of the AppleWorld. But still I have some questions about the Ipad2 and hopefully somebody can help me with my questions:
1) Is the only way to install the applications by using the Itunes Store? Or can it also be dragged and dropped and than installed like in Windows.
2) If the anwser on the first question is "YES", what happens than if you install programs using Itunes and for some reason you have to format the Ipad? Do you have to download them again? Pay for them again? or is it something like the Wii, that you can download the payed ones so many times you want on the same Ipad?
3) Can you play normal DIVX movies on the Ipad or do you have to convert them to Mp4 always?
4) Can you see normal PDF files or do they neede to be converted also?
5) I have read that it doesnñ´t support flash for example, so how cna you see Youtube movies or CNN reports on teh Ipad?
6) The battery life is somewhat 10 hours, but as we know in life, all the batteries die after x years. Can you cange them by yourself? Or do you need to go to a Applestore and they change it? And if so, is it expensive?
7) Can you just drag and drop your own MP3 collection on it?
8) I have a PDA which I use with a GPS device (using Bluetooth), and using the program TomTom. Does the Ipad has a program similar as TomTom? Does anybody has had experience with it?
9) I have in my home a private network using Wifi and cable. Can I connect an Ipad and then searching for excample my PC harddrive for a movie? Is that possible to link the world of Apple with the World of MS?
10) Where can I take a look of all the Apps for the Ipad2? Do I first have to install Itunes, even if I do not have an Ipad2?
11) My primary use for the Ipad will be: reading mail, surf the web, read PDf files and maybe see some videos. I suppose the Ipad2 can do all that (and more). I thought of the 32GB, should it be enough? I mean of the 32GB, what finally have you for using/storing?
Many thx for helping me and I hope to be very soon a part of this "new" world for me.

You download apps directly to the iPad from the App Store app which is preinstalled on the iPad. You can also download the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync them to the iPad.
2) If the anwser on the first question is "YES", what happens than if you install programs using Itunes and for some reason you have to format the Ipad? Do you have to download them again? Pay for them again? or is it something like the Wii, that you can download the payed ones so many times you want on the same Ipad?
You do not have to "format" apps for the iPad if you download them in iTunes on your computer. If you purchase an app, if you need to download it again, there is no charge.
3) Can you play normal DIVX movies on the Ipad or do you have to convert them to Mp4 always?
Read the requirements on this link.
http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/
4) Can you see normal PDF files or do they neede to be converted also?
You can download iBooks in the App Store as a free download to view and save PDF files. If someone emails you a PDF, you will be able to open and read it in the Mail App once you set up your email.
5) I have read that it doesnñ´t support flash for example, so how cna you see Youtube movies or CNN reports on teh Ipad?
It does not support Flash. There is a preinstalled YouTube App on every iPad. Many websites are using html5 which makes a lot of video content available while surfing the web on an iPad.
6) The battery life is somewhat 10 hours, but as we know in life, all the batteries die after x years. Can you
cange them by yourself? Or do you need to go to a Applestore and they change it? And if so, is it expensive?
You must have the battery replaced by Apple. I easily get 10-12 hours a day from a full charge. Read about the iPad battery care here.
http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html
7) Can you just drag and drop your own MP3 collection on it?
You sync music and other content from your iTunes library on your computer, so you will need to install iTunes on your computer. Your computer must meet minimum requirements which are detailed in the iPad specs website referred to above. This site will give you more information on iOS 4.2, the newest software on the iPad.
http://www.apple.com/ipad/ios4/
8) I have a PDA which I use with a GPS device (using Bluetooth), and using the program TomTom. Does the Ipad has a program similar as TomTom? Does anybody has had experience with it?
All iPads have a preinstalled Maps App for directions. Navigation Apps are available in the App Store.
9) I have in my home a private network using Wifi and cable. Can I connect an Ipad and then searching for excample my PC harddrive for a movie? Is that possible to link the world of Apple with the World of MS?
Yes you can "link" the two worlds. Peace and harmony have come to the land of the iPad.
The newest software on the iPad has a feature called Home Sharing that allows you to view content on your computer, in your iTunes library on your iPad without having to sync the movie to the iPad. This allows you to free up storage space on you iPad but still be able to enjoy all of the movies and TV shows that you have purchased.
10) Where can I take a look of all the Apps for the Ipad2? Do I first have to install Itunes, even if I do not have an Ipad2
You do not have to install iTunes to see some of the apps that are available for the iPad. You can Google IPad apps and there any number of websites that talk about and review apps. You can go to Apple's iPad and/or iTunes websites and navigate through them to see some of available apps.
11) My primary use for the Ipad will be: reading mail, surf the web, read PDf files and maybe see some videos. I suppose the Ipad2 can do all that (and more). I thought of the 32GB, should it be enough? I mean of the 32GB, what finally have you for using/storing?
Because of the new Home Sharing feature you can download loads of video content and not have to keep it on your iPad if you want to view it. Only you can be the judge of how much storage capacity you will need. From your brief description, the middle of the road 32GB model should be fine. If your are a gamer at all, some of the bigger name games can take up 700 or MB and videos and movies can be 3-4GB as well, but you can keep those in your iTunes library as mentioned previously. And remember, a very extensive music or photo collection can take up a good bit of storage as well.

Questions about iWork06

Am I holding my mouth wrong? Is it some king of internet or discussion group bad breath? I've posted a pretty basic question (twice) in the last week regarding iWork06 and compatability with iWorks05, plus a question about iWorks06's compatability with EndNote. If nobody has an answer, I understand.
But I'm wondering if I can't get answers here, where can I? I guess I could call the Apple online store. But Mac users are usually such a helpful group.
I notice folks freely get on this discusion to both complain about iWork and Apple's upgrade practices but also to praise and promote them, not exactly what you would expect from a "support" discussion group.

Sometimes people just don't want to respond, because the questions are really redundant (no offence)
I'm thinking of purchasing iWork06. I frquently share documents and presentations between my iMac, iBook and Windows PC at work. I only want to buy the single user iWork and put it on my mac Mini.
Great. good idea.
If I upgrade to iWork06 on my mini, will I have a lot of compatability problems when transfering Pages docs and Keynote presentations to my iMac or iBook where I have iWork05?
Why not upgradde all machines. you get a single user license, not a single machine license.
Also, did I understand correctly from an earlier post, that Pages 2 supports EndNote?
I haven't noticed, but try doing a search in the Pages forum.
I notice folks freely get on this discusion to both complain about iWork and Apple's upgrade practices but also to praise and promote them, not exactly what you would expect from a "support" discussion group.
You get people who want a soapbox to vent their frsustrations, and you get people who are a king honest questions and you get people who are doing their best to help others.
You have to remember those three groups and not lump everyone together.

My HP, purchased in June 2012, died on Saturday. I was working in recently installed Photoshop, walked away from my computer to answer the phone and when I came back the screen was blank. When I turned it on, I got a Windows Error Recovery message. The computer was locked and wouldn't let me move the arrow keys up or down and hitting f8 didn't do anything.
I'm not happy with HP. Any suggestions?

Questions about using the Voice Memos app

I'm currently an Android user, but will be getting an iPhone 6 soon. My most used app is the voice memos app on my Android phone. I have a couple questions about the iPhone's built-in voice memos app.
-Am I able to transfer my voice memos from my Android phone to my iPhone, so my recordings from my Android app will show up in the iPhone's voice memos app?
-When exporting voice memos from the iPhone to computer, are recordings in MP3 format? If not, what format are they in?
-In your opinion, how is the recording quality of the voice memos app?

You cannot import your Android voice memos to your iPhone's voice memo app. You might be able to play the Android memos and have the iPhone pick up the audio and record it.
Here is the writeup about sending voice memos from the iPhone to your computer (from the iPhone User Guide):
App quality is excellent.

Re: Question about the Satellite P300-18Z

Hello everyone,
I have a couple of questions about the Satellite P300-18Z.
What "video out" does this laptop have? (DVI, s-video or d-sub)
Can I link the laptop up to a LCD-TV and watch movies on a resolution of 1080p? (full-HD)
What is the warranty on this laptop?

Hello
According the notebook specification Satellite P300-18Z has follow interfaces:
DVI - No DVI port available
HDMI - HDMI-out (HDMI out port available)
Headphone Jack - External Headphone Jack (Stereo) available
.link - iLink (Firewire) port available

Microphone Jack - External Micrphone Jack
TV-out - port available (S-Video port)
VGA - VGA (External monitor port RGB port)
Also you can connect it to your LCD TV using HDMI cable.
Warranty is country specific and clarifies this with your local dealer but I know that all Toshiba products have 1 year standard warranty and also 1 year international warranty. you can of course expand it.
