Should I wait or should I go now?

Was thinking of putting my old Mac mini into my Mini Cooper with a Lilliput touchscreen and some gps software (just fits between the cupholders and found an awesome mod for a swing out screen). But thought, why not just buy an ipod touch?
They look pretty cool, are much more portable and wouldn't have to break stuff to install it, and they look like they have more features that would be useful for an automotive environment.
The gps issue is holding me back I guess. I know I can get triangulated gps working on an ipod touch, but would like it to be able to work wherever I am city or country or outback. can the triangulated gps actually do a good job?

Should I buy now or wait for Windows 7 that is installed at the factory

I'd like to buy the Acer 1410, should I wait until it's being shipped with Windows 7?
Yes, the free upgrade to Windows 7 is nice, but I'm concerned about all the drivers....WIFI, video, camera, etc. etc... I'm also concerned about the how the Vista turned battery management will interact with WIndows 7? Seems that would be the toughest thing to fix?
Is anyone running Window7 RC on a 1410? If so, how are things going ?
I called Acer support and of course they thought now was a great time to buy one. The rep. stated if I have issues after the upgrade, they would help get it working...LOL
If not, I could send it to Texas for repair!! Really....
I'm surprised more people haven't posted their experiences with the 1410 on the net.. It apppears to be a great, little computer.
I was also considering the Gateway LT3103U, but it is not eligible for the Windows 7 free upgrade and has less memory, etc.. Maybe someone change my mind on that one ? I wasn't very impressed with the Gateway support site, compared to Acer's. (Gee, aren't they the same company, go figure ! )
I wonder if Bestt Buy will offer the Acer 1410 ????? Looks like a hit to me!

When it comes to specific sales questions, I don't know about model releases.
When it comes to waiting to purchasing a computer now with Vista, I say Yes... only if it qualifies for the Windows 7 upgrade for free (minus S&H). I've heard good things about the upgrade from Vista to Windows 7.
I use Windows 7 RC1 and I love it. I used it on my primary computer which is a Sony Laptop.

IOS6 and iphoto, iPad, Apple TV sync problem still unresolved. Turning on and off a few times have not helped. What should I do now? wait for an upgrade fix?

iOS6 and iphoto, iPad, Apple TV sync problem still unresolved. Turning on and off a few times per community advice have not helped. What should I do now? wait for an upgrade fix?
"&" is not the obvious bug/answer. Not sure what went wrong as I cannot select albums and events for sync. Situation is worse for iPad and Apple TV when error 1140 message popped up even before backup get completed.

Download and install the iPhoto 9.4.1 update, which was just released today. It may be the answer to your problems:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1598
Be sure that neither iTunes nor iPhoto is running when you install the iPhoto 9.4.1 update. After installing the update, then restart iTunes and iPhoto. By default, "All photos" is selected. Change this (it's no longer grayed out) to "Selected albums..." and you should be OK.

Should I buy now or wait for iMac upgrade?

After the recent iMac price reduction, should I buy now or wait until the end of the year for a potential upgrade? Does anybody think there will be much of an upgrade? Retina Display?
I am looking at getting an upgraded 27" with i7, 16GB and 3TB Fusion.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

General advice is if you don't need to buy then don't buy. There is always something newer coming out in the next 12 months. That said, also consider what you have now. Sometimes newer models cut off older software or hardware and buying a new model may mean you have to buy all new software or some mission critical piece of hardware. In a science lab where I worked they had old equipment for which there were no software upgrades for that model. Buying too new a computer would have meant spending half a million dollars on related hardware upgrades dictated by the backward compatible software limitations of that $1500 computer. They held off buying a new computer until they could afford new machinery.

That number is for an apple server in the UK that is used for iMessage activation. A hidden SMS is snet to that number when you turn iMessage on and is used to verify your phone number. I suggest you turn iMessage off. In settings/phone turn on dial assist. Check with your carrier to see if you can send an international SMS as you end that possibility to activate iMessage. Rest your phone (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).) then turn iMessage back on.

You will probably need to restore using Recovery Mode. You can read about it here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
Or you can follow these Recovery Mode Instructions
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore iPad.

My apple tv seems to have hung up during the latest software update - what should I do now?

my apple tv seems to have hung up during the latest software update - what should I do now?
I have not turned it off but it has been stuck in the same spot for 30 minutes now and I'm not sure what to do next since the screen says to NOT turn it off until done. Please help.

If it hangs much longer you may need to disconnect and then grab a micro USB to restore through iTunes

HT3775 Hi, my mac which is on 10.7.5 osx. but when ever i insert any mpeg/avi video cd it shows the file format not recognized. i am fed up of this. plz somebody help me. what should i do now.

hi,

2. when ever i insert an avi or mpeg video disk it shows the file format not recognized. to **** with this macbook pro n its 10.7.5 lion. the same disk works/runs on windows on windows systems.
plz somebody help me what should i do now.
[email protected]

it sounds like a fualty installation of Lion, this may happen from time to time.
The best thing to do in this situation is to reinstall Lion. You will not loose anything doing this, but you should always keep back ups of your information.
http://www.apple.com/osx/recovery/
basically hold Cmd+R on boot..
first go to disk utility, verify and repair your disks and permissions. Exit out of Disk utility and then go directly to "reinstall Lion"
choose that and let it reinstall.
Adobe CS6 does need Java to run.
To play your movies you might need to get an application called VLC. VLC is a free app and will play most videos and music files you throw into it.

you have a 64bit intel mac, so get the one for that.

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Hi sunnylordz,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you have no service on the iPhone. It looks like you have already done some troubleshooting. There is one step you did not mention trying that i think is worth trying.
If you see No Service in the status bar of your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
Remove the SIM card. If the SIM card is damaged, worn, or bent, or if it's too big or small for the SIM tray, contact your carrier for a new one. Then reinsert the SIM card.
Cheers,
Mario

I've just installed iTunes on my Windows 8.1 (64-bit) laptop, but i can't open it. It keeps telling me that Apple application was not found. What should i do now?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if AAS won't install normally.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Ask them for a refund for a device which is not fit for purpose, if they refuse contact a solicitor or seek advice from other consumer organisations that may be available to you in your area.
