Turn unused Live Hub into a NAS?

Hi, I have a largely unsused WDTV Live Hub a am using an raspberry pi as my main media player these days. I'd like to turn the Live Hub into a NAS of sorts - it already mounts itslef as a drive on the network but the problem is it doesn't play well with OSX and copying files often fails - seem to be a common issue with newer OSX versions. Anyone have any ideas for running something else on it ie maybe linux version or something other than the custom firmware?

I pulled the drive out of mine and put it in a Zotac Zbox and then shared it. Kodi makes good use of it this way.... Maybe you could do something similar....

Turn the old MDD into a NAS

Hello everybody,
time passed by since I got my first PowerBook, 2002, earlly 2003 followed a beautiful 1.25 Dual MDD which worked fine for years and years, now it lies in a corner waiting to know its destiny and since my iTunes library (and photo archive) grows bigger and bigger I thought to reutilize it as a NAS server to stream the iTunes library through the domestic network to both other computers and to Apple TV; the point is, it is more convenient to buy a NAS case and slam 2 drives in it or a solution like my old MDD and a NAS4Free implementation could do fine on my PowerMac to suit my needs?
The idea would be to put the MDD in a storage, attach it to an UPS and to the network and intall in it a S-ATA card with a couple drives, how does it sound?
thank you

I suppose it consumes a lot of electricity and noisy, compared with NAS case.

Can't copy files to my WD TV Live Hub

Hi All,
My system:
- iMac 2010 - 21 inches (OS X 10.6.5)
- Netgear Router
- WD TV Live Hub connected to my network wirelessly, with a Netgear USB dongle
The MAC is connected to the router.
I can't copy videos from my Mac to the TV Live HUB hard drive. I can see the TV Live HUB but when I try to drag files into it, it does not let me do it. I have tried installing MACFuse to see if I could get writing permissions but it didn't work. I have also tried using NTFSMac, but no go.
Can someone pls help me copying videos from my MAC to the LIVE Hub withouf having to move them to another network drive and go from there?

Have you tried using Disk Utility to repair the permissions on the disk?

CAN I TURN MY MACBOOK PRO INTO A MONITOR?

Help I want to turn my Macbook Pro into a monitor for my Playstation 2 so that way I can record on my screen using quicktime. please help I used a vga adapter from apple a AV to vga converter, and is their any way for me to use an iphone on a mac to play ios games while recording?

I don't think you can without some sort of capture card (very expensive, and because most MacBook Pros don't have a card, you need to use the FW800). MBP's Thunderbolt port only sends video signals out, you can't attach an HDMI to Mini DisplayPort cable from your camera to the MBP and expect to show video.
You could try a utility like Sofortbild.

I am trying to transfer my photos from old mac to new mac. I copied the iPhoto library to an external hard drive, then imported it to the new iPhoto. It turned my 2000 photos into 12,000!! What happened?

And how do I turn off FACES?

I copied the iPhoto library to an external hard drive, then imported it to the new iPhoto. It turned my 2000 photos into 12,000!!
According to you youo did not do what I instructed - you said you imported the old library into th enew library which can easily take a 2000 photo library and turn it into 12,000 including two ro three versions of each photo pus all the face thumbnails
The correct procedure has NO importing involved
drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac
That is it

is JQ iweb compatible?
jQuery is a very popular JavaScript library with which you can bring interactivity into web pages. I know almost nothing about iWeb except that it is consumer level software for non-coders. That said, if you can access the source code (HTML and CSS), you should be able to use jQuery plug-ins in your web pages.
jQuery Cycle Plug-in (click on examples, view source in browser to see the code).

Is there a way to turn a text character into an image?

Is it possible to turn a text character into an image/shape...using Pages or any other iLife or iWorks app?
Reason being - I want to use a certain font and a character in it, but that particular font is not being recognized/shown properly by another computer. I want to make sure the text character shows up as I intend, and I figure the way to do that is by turning the text character into an image/shape (like a jpeg maybe? or a tiff or gif? I don't know too much about the difference between these last two). Then I can paste that image onto any background and have it still look like text laying on top of the background.
Hope that makes sense, and many thanks in advance for any insights!

Although it saves the text character as an image, it also saves the background (the white of the page) as part of that image. So when the character is pasted into a document whose background is anything other than white, it doesn't look like a simple text character anymore. It looks like a white box with a text character in it. You know what I mean?
I'm thinking I might need to use whole 'nother graphics program to do this whole deal...what do you think?
Rather than using Preview, create the new image from the clipboard in GraphicConverter & use the transparency wand to make the background transparent. Then use ⌘ E to select just the image & save, choosing to save just the selection.

How can i turn a photoshop file into a website with knowing code? can i upload Muse or DreamWeaver?

I created a few images (pages for a site) on photoshop and want to turn them into HTML code for a website- Can i Just upload the file into one of these programs and make a file with the correct code imediatly?
I was reading about using EDGE Reform but i did not understand if i can create the code with it, in the end it says it still needs to be sent to website developer after?

You need to look at Dreamweaver as a code editor. You need to learn to create good, clean HTML code with style sheets to make websites with Dreamweaver.
There are tutorials that will take you from a layered .PSD file to HTML. Here's a good one:
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/site-builds/from-psd-to-html-building-a-set-of-website-d esigns-step-by-step/
Adobe's Muse is a semi-WYSIWYG website layout creator for small websites (1-5 pages). But there is no way you can go from a .PDS file to Muse, you have to start the site in Muse.
I have seen a few Muse sites and they're OK, but there is some code that Muse creates that is kind of odd. If you want a good, clean website that will work for you or your business, Dreamweaver is the best choice. Alternatively, you could hire a pro.

The keyboard shortcut that turns an exclamation mark into an apostrophe no longer works in iOS 6. How can I restore that shortcut?

the keyboard shortcut that turns an exclamation mark into an apostrophe no longer works in iOS 6. How can I restore that shortcut?

Well, I for one really hate when they change this stuff. They get us used to doing it one way for years and then they change it. Why? Really, seriously, truly......WHY?
In fact, I originally noticed it had changed and then when I'd hit it, I thought it required me to touch both so I ended up with an apostrophe but then also a letter "l". I just left commas everywhere I went for a while cuz it ticked me off so bad I just rebelled.
In ios5 it was actually faster because it's the same move and time involved, but without the extra "slide". So, in essence, Apple went backwards.
Nice, eh?

Turn My iPhone 4 into an iPod Touch?

Hi,
I'm sorry if this question has been asked (seems like it would be a fairly common question). I've used the search feature, as well as Google, but most of the threads/answers I've found seem to be "one-off" type of questions that don't really address the general issue.
Anyway, I had an iPhone 4. I just bought a new iPhone 5s. I simply want to turn the iPhone 4 into an iPod touch so that I can continue to use it to listen to music and podcasts while I'm exercising (seems like a better option than to risk dropping my brand new iPhone). What do I need to do this? Do I need to remove the SIM card? If so, how do I do this?
Thanks.

Hi All,
I too have a question on this. I have upgraded to the 5s and want to give my iphone 4 to my daughter to use as an ipod touch with no sim. I'm having difficulty setting up imessage and facetime on the device? I've followed a few posts an have erased all contents and all settings, put the old sim in (it is still active with network), set the phone up using itunes account with sim in with no success.... Waiting for activation...... is the status
You could/can use imessage and facetime on my old ipod touch so am I right in thinking that you can also do this with the iphone 4 with no sim?
If so how..............
