Recommendations for writable CDs on the Powermac G5? Please help.

Dear All,
I'm using a powermac g5 with 1.8gHz (powerpc 3.0) and Mac OSX 10.4. The drive is DVD RW DW-U21A.
Does anyone have any recommendations for brands of writable CDs that they have used in this machine? I've tried a couple and they got spat out, but they should have worked. Before I buy and return any more packs, I thought you guys might be able to help ...
thanks,
Richard O'Sullivan

Hi-
For CD's, don't use over 74 min CD-R's. 80 min (and higher) can be VERY problematic.
Don't try to use any DVD-R over 8x- 16x often won't work. Use 8x, and burn slower:

Use quality brands like Verbatim, Taiyo Yuden, Pioneer, Ridisc, Dysan- check the following site for user ratings on any type of disc, and ratings by speed and maker:

There is all kind of variation in disks, and once you find a good one, stock up:

Also, the CD lens is separate from the DVD lens- still could be hardware. Try cleaning?

HT203164 I used to be able to print labels for burned CDs with the cover being the playlist name and the other side the song titles...now the titles print out compacted, overlapping each other and illegible. I thought it was the printer but it happened w/

I used to be able to print labels for burned CDs with the cover being the playlist name and the other side the song titles...now the titles print out compacted, overlapping each other and illegible. I thought it was the printer but it happened w/1 other printer as well, which I used before for this exact thing w/no problem.

Try cleaning the print head with rubbing alcohol wipe, then replace your print head. Keep pushing the Ok.

Hello ,
I want to ask some question about ipads \
How powerful is the iPad?
How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web?
Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?
please help me

it's less powerful than your average computer. THink of it like a netbook but with a better processor.
It'll do fine for surfing (although if you browse a lot of flash based sites you will need to get a third party browser since safari doesn't accommodate it)
You may do OK on reading books, papers or magazines, especially if they have apps, but the ipad's screen is backlit, so it doesn't work well outdoors and you may need to fiddle with the brightness so that you don't get eye strain (it's just like doing too much reading from a computer screen)
I would say the biggest short comings are data transfer. Apple's preferred work flow is that everything is done via iTunes or the internet....well people dont' always have 100% reliable always on internet access so you can find yourself in a situation where you can't get things on/off the iPad.
By and large, it's a good device for day to day stuff, but is not a computer replacement.

I am using Ipod touch.When I try to update my iso version it shows "this vesion of ipod is the current version".Please help me how to update it to new version.

I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

Just go back in photoshop and use the Slice Select tool, then just click and select the slice and hit delete - if you're not sure which one is the active slice just right click and find the one that has the Delete Slice option.
It's possible you either added the slices by accident or if you received it from someone they just had the slices hidden. For the future, you can go to View > Show > Slices to display (or hide) slices.

Hi,
When did you make the purchase? Can you try signing out of the CC desktop app, and then signing back in?
I'll see if I can get direct support sent your way as well. How much longer are you available for this evening? We can communicate directly as well if you prefer.
regards,
steve

I have updated my Imac to Mavericks and now my parallells won't work and I have reinstalled as per the instructions. Please help as all my data is on a hardrive that is formatted for PC.

Yes I just discovered that this morning but I have purchased another external harddrive and formatted it for both and am in the process of transferring the files across it and then I will erase the old harddrive and reformat it so I can use it.
I have learnt to format harddrives from this experience but am happy to see the back of parallells.
Thank you for your help though it is much appreciated.
