X-Fi is amazi

I just received my X-Fi XtremeGamer today. It'sinstalled and I'm downloading the latest updates.
One word?
Godly freaking sound.
I don't know why that guy who started the X-FI IS CRAP thread started the thread, but I beg to differ.
It didn't work the first time just because I didn't make sure it was secure in the PCI slot. Whoo
ps.
Now it's secure, and the latest drivers are done downloading. Once again, Creative steals my heart.
And who knows; maybe it might fix my Zen Sleek issue? You never know.
You never cease to amaze, Creative.

Sorry for the prolonged delay. Due to problems I caused fully myself (bumping the power cable off my HD during bootup, lol) I've had to reformat which paused me for a bit. My post was not intended as a flame to anyone. In fact, it was a direct rebutle to the comment made in the first post.
"I don't know why that guy who started the X-FI IS CRAP thread started the thread, but I beg to differ."
I really see no need to flame someone for enjoying a product, but I also see no reason to propogate ignorance by neglecting to share information.
FYI, ignorance is not calling anyone an idiot... ignorant just means someone has little to no knowledge about a topic being discussed. Figured I'd clear the common misconception (atleast here in the USA) about this up so noone takes this post offensi'vely either.
Cat:
Just wanted to say I've noticed your the most acti've at dealing directly with individuals and not just posting annoying copy/paste solutions that show no interest in the problem. Thank you.

    Hi,
    I believe the phone uses Android OS, v2.3.4 (Gingerbread) therefore you can use one of these applications:

    My laptop is no longer reliable. I want to share my iTunes account with my new iPad 3.   I just started viewing my iPad window on my 50 inch Panasonic wirelessly via Apple Tv 2.  That's amazing.
    Now I want to share my iTunes account with my Apple TV  1, and my iPad 3, without the need of booting up the unreliable laptop where I set it up last year.   do I have to use my. Pc laptop to access the iTunes store again too authorize home sharing.   I have tried it before. O for a while I thought the we're sharing, now the Apple Tv has gone back to telling me to use my computer too sign into iTunes.     
    there maybe a far simpler way to enjoy iTunes on my iPad and Apple Tv.   I also have the Sony blurry Google Tv.  I will upgrade my PC with Windows Z8 and a screaming ran cache, ram disk on a 79 mother board and then pay 5 bucks a month for OnLive Plus that I hpe to show wirelesslypy on the big scree 50 inch Panasonic.   I have waited for years to upgrade as I wanted to help my kids in college.  They are finished and so I have money fr my self.CELEBRATE

  • Macbook pro 17 external display.Amazing machine had it for 2 days n Love it

    hay a quick question
    ive got a new unibody macbook pro 17 (its amazing i love this beast) and a Samsung external display which is a 24inch and im having trouble sorting out the size and resolution with the computer and the display as the laptop thinks the external display is smaller than the laptops display and thus means that the resolution on the display is higher which is just annoying.
    Any ideas on know how to change this so its either the same as the laptop or fits better and is the correct size?
    if its any help im connected via the mini display port to dvi and the input to the tv is dvi-d and it also has HDMI input if it helps

    Is the monitor a monitor, or an HDTV?
    If it's an HDTV with a DVI input on it, them I'm willing to bet it's only a 720, since most HDTV's don't jump to 1080 until you get above 32".
    I've got a 24" Optiquest monitor on my work PC and it runs at 1900x1200, but it's a true computer monitor.
    I've hooked a laptop up to my 52" Samsung HDTV, and it would only do 1900x1200 (which could be a limitation of the video card).

  • Z 10 Amazing But Missing Useful Functions

    The Z10 phone is an amazing change for the blackberry users and it shows that the company is going on a great track and an amazing future, although am impressed with the phone and using it as my primary phone, it needs the missing functions that most of them were available on old Blackberry OS and was so useful such as:
    Sound level on notifications sitting for each category alone and not as one option for all the phone notifications.
    Select All option on BBM broadcast messages and to select by category.
    Delete updates information on BBM.
    Import Contacts from PC/File without using an e-mail account.
    Contacts total number.
    Update Maps application.
    Enable multiple alarm function.
    Show Battery life percentage.
    Enable WhatsApp.
    Multiple background for home screen and lock screen.
    Am sure if this were available on the Z10 i will stop using my iphone5 as a second phone.

    You read my mind. So I am not insane?

  • USELESS ONLINE HELP FACILITIES For all the amazing productivity aids that APPLE offers the world I have to report that their online support service is worse than useless and has recently been the source of immense time wasting and irritation.

    USELESS ONLINE HELP FACILITIES
    For all the amazing productivity aids that APPLE offers the world I have to report that their online support service is worse than useless and has recently been the source of immense time wasting and irritation.
    Incident 1. Since many months attempts to download new and updated APPs produced a response – Apple ID Disabled. I had no time to consult an APPLE Store due to work in distant lands. When I finally visited yesterday I was told that as my IPAD has been reported as stolen, and APPLE in its wisdom had blocked its usage! I am not sure how they became so misinformed and nobody every advised me while with a few swift moves APPLE could have located me by email address or SKYPE.
    Incident 2. Once the above anomaly had been fixed I tried to down load a newspaper and diligently input my address, credit card number and personal data. Repeatedly I was advised that my Credit Card was invalid and my postal code was incorrect! Really!
    I was left to guess that having moved from UK to the US I should have advised APPLE! Not being told of this requirement brought about a second visit to APPLE Store in the same day to waste both mine and their time with a routine anomaly. How parochial in the context of a globalized world!
    In each case I tried to resolve the issues using online access to a help line and by calling by phone at the numbers on the APPLE Website. In each of four separate occasions I diligently went through the routine and  ended up with a message that thanked me for contacting Apple followed by a polite ‘Good Bye’!
    In desperation I went to an Apple Store for the second time in a day as it is close to where I live when I am not working. On both occasions I was courteously attended to by Apple Staff.
    However, my work is usually far away from the US and it is generally many thousands of miles to the nearest Apple Store therefore online help is viewed as imperative if one is to resolve issues away from home.
    Why can Apple not provide a clearly marked EMAIL address and Telephone number at a Help Desk with real people to respond to requests for help? It would cost nothing in relative terms and might restore my high level of anti-APPLE sentiment that these two recent events have provoked.

    Why can Apple not provide a clearly marked EMAIL address and Telephone number at a Help Desk with real people to respond to requests for help?
    If that is your question, the answer is at the bottom right of this web page. It is clearly marked "Contact Us" and is the best way, really the only way, to contact Apple.
    If there were a publicly posted email address for concerns such as yours, it would be quickly filled with spam in about three minutes, thereby becoming instantly useless to you and everyone else. Apple would need to change it hourly, if not more often. That is also the reason you ought not to post your name, location, and what appears to be your iPad's serial number on this publicly viewable website.
    Apple does not respond here and I can find no other questions for your fellow Apple users to answer.

  • I'm about to return this amazing Macbook air I'm so mad

    I bought the 13inch Macbook air today, and the laptop is amazing! Theres just one tiny flaw but to me it's so massive. I bought this laptop for 2 things, Starting college, and light on the go gaming. And the problem is every time you left click on this macbook the cursor freezes for about half a second, which means you can't click fast and move your mouse at the same time. This is really crucial for all the games I play and it's driving me insane. I've never had this happen on any other trackpad. I've searched around in the settings and google for about 3 hours and nothing. I'm really close to returning this macbook which would be a shame because other than this the laptop is amazing. So for example if your on a macbook air (I don't know if it's the same on other macs) try clicking fast and moving the trackpad at the same time... As you can see the mouse stops every time you click. (And no an external mouse is not an option) Any fix to this would be so amazing I think my heads about to blow up lol

    You can return a new Mac within 14 days of purchase.
    Return it and get another one.
    A new Mac comes with 90 days of free tech support from AppleCare.

    The problem is your friend's music does not belong to you.  It is owned by your friend.
    I'm afraid you cannot do what you are trying to do.  Restoring the iPhone is what you would have to do.
    In the future, put your music on the computer and transfer it to the iPhone, not the other way.

    Contact iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history or,
    iTunes Customer Service Contact - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html > Get iTunes support via Express Lane > iTunes > iTunes Store - Apple states all sales are final, but you can always ask nicely.  Your friend should have checked the specifications of your ipad before making the gift.

  • Amazing iPhone - mobile computing as it should be

    Sadly too often these fora only cover issues that cause people problems (btw, have others noticed that the proportion of posts that simply complain has gone up? I am concerned that the old community spirit amongst Apple users may be diminishing).
    I thought i'd post about a truly amazing iPhone experience recently. For me, this really points to what is possible and to the future.
    We have been on holiday/vacation in San Francisco (admittedly fairly close to Cuppertino, but still). As usual we had some days where we did lots of walking. Not only did we use GPS and Google Maps to locate and track us but, much more impressively than that, when it was time to return to our hotel we sought and obtained directions that told us which buses to use, where to change, for what fare and when the buses were due to arrive. Of course we could then use GPS to track process.
    Doubtless some will argue that part of the romance of travel is being lost in foreign cities. Let them leave their iPhones switched off or at home. I found it incredible, when we were tired of walking, that my little pocket computer got us back so effortlessly and without stress.
    Needless to say, iPhone scored heavily in other holiday areas, such as finding info, booking a hire car, using Open Table to book meals &c. Also, mobile me has been really good at keeping me in touch and letting me post photos for my family and friends.
    Three cheers for iPhone this Christmas then. I feel genuinely impressed and cheerful and wanted to share that with others.

    Glad to hear it. And glad to hear you are enjoying my home town.
    Hubby and I just drove from SF Bay Area to Colorado along I-80. Along the way, I used my phone to check weather/temp of cities in our path, radar maps, checked for chain requirements, etc. The phone totally beat the weather channel on our on-board Sirius because we could pinpoint small towns that were not being reported on the radio. I used app iWant to check for restaurants in the area. We didn't need GPS because we have that on board. But all in all, the phone was a definite help on our trip.

  • It's amazing how just after my garantee on my Ipod touch ran out, now it keeps shutting down or locking on me. I have restored it several times. Any ideas anyone?

    It is amazing how just as the warranty on my Ipod touch runs out, it has started to shut down on me or freezes. Any ideas anyone?

    If you restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and still have the problem then you likely have an hardware problem and the Genius Bar is a good option.

  • IPhoto amazing...

    I am absolutely and positively amazed with how well and stable iPhoto 6 seems to be so far.
    I have a rather large library of 23,000 photos and haven't been able to use iPhoto in several months because importing caused the application to crash all the time. It'd take a long time to load the library, chugg along crash while browsing the library...importing would crash it about 8 out of 10 times when importing. I had become disenchanted and even bought iView (which ironically I got days before iPhoto 6 was released)...
    Anyway, iPhoto not only converted my library over to 6.0 but also found several photos stored away in my folder that weren't loading properly into iPhoto and either imported them or gave me an option to fix permissions then continue.. I even ran out of room at one time and had to move files off my hard drive, and free up space and it still didn't crash or abort the import.
    I am simply amazed. As I said, I have 23,000 photos on a G4 1Gz iMac w/ 1 GB of ram and had given up on iPhoto back at version 4... Yet tried desperately to maintain a library until I had another solution.. I can't run apreture but now that iPhoto is fixed, I don't need to right now!!!
    Thanks Apple!!! I can't wait to try it out fully. Its a lot faster. It still has some slowness when loading full screen images individually but that's to be expected.. Nothing at all like it was before...still blazing fast!! Great job!!!
    Christopher Powers
    p.s. I haven't had a chance to play with it yet except importing, so this is just my early impression... However, browsing my 22,000 library while it added another 1,000 photos found...was still fast and thats incredible.

    The only thing I have noticed is that a large portion of my OLDEST photos are damaged. I am very confident though that its NOT damaged from iPhoto 6 but was damaged somewhere along the lines of using older versions, transfering folders to hard drives and trying to clean out duplicates.
    Just that's the only thing I've noticed. Everything that was 5 years or older seems to not load in an editor (or Photoshop).. I'm hoping there's a fix somewhere along the line but again, I think its not an iPhoto 6 problem but a problem I had before but never fully realized as iPhoto wasn't usable until now.

  • I got my new Imac today, first mac, AMAZING - how to setup security?

    Hello,
    what a computer, i was scared of the glossy screen , but is amazing all is amazing so far.
    What should i do regarding the security ? ( spyware, virus etc )
    I found the firewall and set it to he most secure mode, so I only allow the programs I want - did i do right?
    Please tell me what else I should do , to make it more secure.
    There are some options but i dont understand them and I am lost.
    many thx for ur help in advance

    thx. Could u please help me which are the best setting to make under the security in my Imac?
    I have a bit of a long list.
    Feel free to post back for clarification.
    First, and MOST important, make SURE you are NOT in an admin account.
    Go to >System Preferences...>Accounts, unlock the lock, click the "+" to make a new account, make it an administrator account, and then take away your own account's admin privileges.
    Next (assuming you already have the firewall on, which you stated you did), go to >System Preferences...>Security>Firewall, unlock the lock if necessary, click "Advanced", and check both boxes. Click "OK".
    Also make sure that you don't have any applications added to the "Allow" section, unless you NEED them there. (NOTE: The most secure firewall mode is "Allow Only Essential Services".)
    Next, staying in the "Security" preference pane, click "General".
    Check the boxes: "Disable Automatic Login", "Require Password to Unlock Each Secure System Preference Pane", and "Use Secure Virtual Memory".
    Then restart.
    Those methods, along with being careful with what you install, and/or give access to your mac, will keep your mac secure from any intruders.
    Good luck!
