  • Whats the difference between ipod touch.....

    and second generation ipod touch?
    I bought one at target for 299.99 15 days ago. Now they have one under the same sku number for 229.99. I asked for a price adjustment and they told me they can't do it. I said well I'll just reurn it for a full refund and you lose the whole sale. Even called corporate. They didn't seem to care what I did.

    Well I contacted them last thursday when I saw apple had readjusted the price. of course their (Targets) website still reflected the 299.99. It did not change until today. It's amazing they would rather lose the entire sale then make a refund adjustment.

  • Whats the difference between ipod touch 2nd generation and 1st?

    Hello Jon,
    I would check out this article for a pretty good explanation of what is different between the two generations. There are good handful of them and some are pretty important.

  • Whats the difference bitween ipod 2 and 3

    how do you update your 2 generation ipod to i.o.s 4.3

    You do not. The 2G only goes to 4.2.1. The 2G only has 128 MB of memory (3G 256 MB) and a poorer CPU and GPU than the 3G.

  • Whats the biggest hard disk my PowerMac G5 can hold?

    Greetings!
    I got a hold of a PowerMac G5 recently, rather cool machine!
    Anyway, i want to use it as a fileserver and also for backups of me and my family members computers so im going to need some big hard disks!
    Unfortunately PPC macs wont boot from GUID partitioned hard disks so i have 1 hard disk bay free (Whilst the other holds the boot drive) Unless i find some super nice fellow willing to sell me a G5 Jive card rather cheap
    At the moment i have a 2TB Samsung Spinpoint (HD204UI) that i could use however before i go messing around inside the system i'd like to know if such high capacity drives will work in the system at all? As far as im aware some hard disks need certain pins/jumpers connected so they run at the slower speed and such. I recall reading something about AFT being an issue as well?
    Any information is appreciated, i have listed the system information below as well if it helps.

    There may be an upgrade potential with a PCI card or other hardware;
    not sure. The data rate according to MacTracker for the model you
    have is 1.5GBps or so. Without some hardware upgrade, that may not
    be surpassed. A 2TB to 4TB HDD should be an easy upgrade.

    {according to the http://mactracker.ca free database application}
    You may be able to contact a product specialist or reseller of upgrade
    parts, to see what the upper limits are to a stock last model G5 tower.
    I see some options here, but not certain of product boundaries:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/3.5-SerialATA/
    The above company does offer pre-purchase support, to help get what
    works; and from reports by other Apple users, they also do, afterward.
    At least with an internal 3.5" HDD, these run 7200 RPM, and so should
    be fairly quick at moving data; the computer drive bus may be a slow
    link in the chain, when a modern drive may be faster at in this aspect.
    Same if you were to choose too-high spec SSD, instead of closer match.
    The replacement or upgrade hard disk drives may be somewhat backward
    compatible to older spec data rates; so that may be an answer of a sort.
    A few of the listed HDDs and perhaps a SSD look promising. OWC does offer
    some legacy SSD products that can be used in slower data bus situations.
    Other specs may be found at http://everymac.com regarding this PM G5.
    Not sure if this helps...
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Whats the real size of a 1TB drive?

    Hello,
    Whats the real storage size of a 1TB drive? I just formatted a 1TB drive in Disk Utility using Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and the disc is running about 931.5. Where does the rest of the storage go?
    thanks

    -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1867 (this article is for iPods but this info applies to all disk drives)
    "Why the difference? Most hard disk manufacturers measure disk size this way: 1 MB = 1 million bytes (1000 * 1000). A 4 GB disk, therefore, is one that holds 4 billion bytes. Computers, including Windows computers, Macintosh computers and iPod, measure disk size this way: 1 MB = 1 048 576 bytes (1024 * 1024). The difference in these two calculations is what causes the drive to appear as 3.7 GB on a computer, but actually be a 4 billion byte disk."

  • Which is the Apple TV 2nd flash disk capacity ?

    which is the Apple TV (2nd series) flash disk capacity ?
    Thanks

    Also of note it doesn't actually store anything indefinitely.
    Say you rent an iTunes HD movie that might be 3-6GB or even more, it will buffer what is needed to the memory allowing seamless playback once enough has buffered (almost instant if you have >8Mbps).  However say you decide to watch later and watch some trailers, youTube, Netflix etc then the pre-buffered content will usually get overwritten and if on a slow connection it may take many mins or even hours to pre-buffer again to watch.
    Nothing is really synced to it though some photos can be synced, but again I suspect some may be purged if memory demands are high.

  • Whats the Actual Capacity For The 2 gig?

    Whats the Actual Capacity For The 2 gig? the 4 gigs real capacity is like 3.7 or something what is the actual amount for the 2 gig? does any1 know?

    The capacity they ship is 2 billion bytes. Nothing is being shaved, it's just different measures being used.

  • I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time  Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on  what other external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and  how to configure that disk

    I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time
    Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on
    what other
    external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and
    how to configure that disk.
    A complication that I need to resolve is the fact that I am using Vmware
    Fusion to be able to use Windows on my Mac. Now it seems that Time
    Machine is not backing up my files
    on that virtual Windows without additional configuration and my question
    is whether you can advise me here or whether this is only a matter for
    the Fusion virtual machine.

    If you want to use Time Capsule you can.. you simply bridge it and plug it into the existing router.. wireless can be either turned off or used to reinforce the existing wireless.. eg use 5ghz in the TC which is much faster than your 2.4ghz.
    You can also use a NAS.. many brands available but the top brands are synology, qnap and netgear readynas  series. These will all do Time Machine backups although how well always depends on Apple sticking to a standard. There are cheaper ones.. I bought a single disk zyxel which was rebadged and sold through my local supermarket. It actually works very well for TM at least on Snow Leopard. Major changes were made in Lion and again ML so do not instantly think it will work on later versions. I haven't tried it yet with those versions.
    Any external drive can be plugged into the mac. Use the one with the fastest connection or cheapest price according to your budget. USB2 drives are cheap and plentiful. But no where near as fast as USB3 or FW800. So just pick whichever suits the ports on your Mac. Interesting Apple finally moved to USB3 on their latest computers.
    TM should exclude the VM partition file.. it is useless backing it up from Mac OS side.. and will slow TM as it needs to backup that partition everyday for no purpose.. TM cannot see the files inside it to backup just the changes.
    You need to backup windows from windows. Use MSbackup to external drive.. if you have pro or ultimate versions you can backup to network drive. But MSbackup is a dog.. at least until the latest version it cannot restore the partition without first loading windows. There are about a zillion backup software versions for windows.. look up reviews and buy one which works for you. I use a free one Macrium Reflect which does full disk backups and is easy to restore.. to do incremental backups though you have to pay for it.

  • I need help on my MacBook Pro. Recently I've deleted another partition of my disk from the disk utility and I found out that my disk capacity wasn't get into the normal one which is 750GB. Meanwhile I installed window 7 into the partition disk.

    I need help on restoring my disk capacity back to normal. I installed window 7 into the partition disk through bootcamp and I deleted it from disk utility. After I erase the partition disk,I get my capacity to 499GB but not 750GB. Do I need to reinstall my MacBook or something to do with the restoring?

    You shouldn't do it. You have to erase the Windows volume with Boot Camp Assistant, so it will restore the space onto the OS X volume and that volume will have 750 GB.
    As you did it with Disk Utility, you have to resize your OS X partition manually:
    1. Open Disk Utility, select your hard disk at the top of the sidebar, and go to Partition tab.
    2. You will see a bar with Macintosh HD. You have to click it at the bottom right corner and drag it to the end of the bar, so Macintosh HD will use all the space of the hard drive, and press Apply.
    3. Close Disk Utility and your OS X partition will have 750 GB

  • How can I get access to all the disk capacity?

    I want to use all the disk capacity of SCSI target disks.
    When I call prtvtoc for these disks, it written something
    like this: cylinders number is N, available cylinders
    number is N-2, so Solaris takes 2 cylinders from each disk.
    Is there any way to use all the disk capacity, including
    these 2 cylinderes?
    Regards, Dany.

    I do not understand the question.  I cannot go online from my site off any link embedded in the document.  When there is a link in the document and I try to click on it I get the error code posted in the first item.  Also (I just found this out trying to fix it) I am attached to windows mail and the same thing occurs when I try to send a file to myself.  Thus the bottom line is I am trying to get online through the embedded links and I get the error code written in the opening comment.  You have all the codes you requested, if you want anything just ask and I will seek it.  I am getting very frustrated, do not take this as anything against you...I cannot get this to work.

  • HT201270 In layman terms, what the heck does updating your carrier settings mean and how does it effect me in the real world?

    In Layman terms, what the heck does updating your carrier settings mean, and how does it effect me in the real world?

    No offense, but what carrier?  what data and what service? 
    I get a bogus window hovering in my itunes page, telling me I have to update information, that I don't want to manage. 
    I am not upset or unappreciative of your feedback, quite the opposite, I can't believe anyone actually monitors peoples frustrations. 
    I just want to make sure I don't allow information about me that is not necessary.  I just want to listen to music and have a phone and have an ipad. 
    Everything else about apple is way to propriatory. I don't want to do anything that isn't very simple. 
    Most importantly, there never seems to be any (human being) that can answer a telephone call anymore. 
    Contact us, means...send us an email about something you don't know anything about, and I don't even know that questions to ask.
    I am not allowed to be ignorant.  If I am I wait days for answers.....

    It depends on the size of the file and the memory your iPod has like 2GB.
