When I restore (after I have it "pwned" with PwnageTool in iTunes), it restores, but after it is done verifying the restore, it goes back to black screen in DFU recovery mode :(
Please help!

Happy Birthday, and welcome to MacRumors!
I have an iPod Classic myself, and I don't see myself getting rid of it - although an iPod Touch or iPhone is really nice, both for playing music and for apps.
The reason I bought the Classic is simple storage - my library is too big to fit on a Touch. I also don't care to listen to music with my phone (mostly because of battery life). My iPod spends most of its time plugged in in my truck, although I do take it out when I fly or otherwise ready to spend a fair amount of time want to listen to music uninterrupted.
As for refreshes, those typically come around September, for back-to-school sales, but there's no guarantee they'll do it again this year.

I don't think he is fake. He has a facebook page and twitter. He is saying he is releasing it tomorrow. Guess we will see tomorrow.
Ironically, his Facebook profile says that he is a "fictional character"

I think that the two big shortcomings that I find with Pages is the lack of a full mail-merge functionality, which will be fixed with the release of "Lasso" or Numbers or Charts or whatever it is and the lack of a built-in thesaurus as I really don't like to copy and paste from the system wide one. The thesaurus issue is supposed to be fixed with the next version of Pages as well.
Not sure if you knew this shortcut, if you do please forgive this redundent post. I didn't know of this shortcut for the first year of my using OSX.
The thesaurus is available to any Cocoa app.
It's easy:
1) Hover over the word in question with the mouse
2) press "Apple Key" + "Control Key" + "D"
3) Dictionary window pops up.
4) Bottom left of pop-up window, select thesaurus.
It is so super simple. I use it nearly every day. Oh yeah, the dictionary.app must be in the applications folder, if you have moved it the shortcut no longer works.

Hi, I run Snow Leopard natively on my MBP, and have installed Windows 7 on bootcamp.
So, i boot into Win7 and i can read files on my Mac partition but i cant edit/ write to them.
I was wondering if there was any way to edit/write files on Mac partition while being in Win7 partition.
I've done my search and found MacDrive to be an option, but it costs a lot where i'm from. Are there any free alternatives?
Thanks :)

I picked up a SonyStyle catalog last week and I noticed that Sony is also announcing a GPS add-on for their cameras. Presumably it would do the same thing. I guess the idea being you can track the locations of your photographs as you travel on vacation.
To each his own, I guess, but I thought that seemed pretty silly when Sony was producing it, and I still think it's silly even with Apple at the helm. I mean, sure, it's cool, but would I pay a couple hundred bucks for that? No. Definitely an early adopter toy.
However, I do happen to be in the minority of folks that has a good GPS receiver (in my case for geocaching (http://www.geocaching.com)) so it might just be that since I already have invested good money into existing devices that provide me the means of doing the same thing, I'm reticent to spend more on the same thing. It would be neat to see more integration between, say, Bluetooth enabled GPS units (which exist) and digital cameras.

Can anyone give an estimate, based off of previous releases, as to how long it'll take for a public release? I can't be the only one itching to jailbreak my iPad2.
I'm no expert, but it's a user land exploit which is in the firmware itself. Jailbreaks on other iDevices are hardware which means Jailbreakable for life.
It's most likely going to be at jailbreakme.com, which is a .PDF used to exploit. So I guess a few days at most. It's not going to be a program like Redsn0w or pwnagetool.
So it should be pretty quick.
I don't understand why everyone is getting so mad. It got moved, chill out.

I Have font doctor on my laptop macbook pro 17" 2.93 ghz 2duo latest os with updates.
I have been having problems with font doctor 7.7
I have at least 4 gigs of fonts on a drive.
Problem #1: Font doctor does not complete its task when I run the whole folder. Problem # 2 if I run font doctor on individual small folders within my font folder some font folders get complete repairs some folders do not ( lags on last task and does not complete).
Problem#3 does not complete task on organizing fonts if i try
Does anyone know of a good alternative to font repair and organization latest software?
I have to say, I've never experienced an issue with FontDoctor itself, it has come across problem fonts that it couldn't fix, but the app itself I've always found to be utterly bulletproof, and that's with 12GB of fonts.
Sounds more like the issue is with specific corrupt fonts rather than any inherent issue with the software.
Have you tried completely uninstalling and then reinstalling FontDoctor? That's always my first port of call when I hit a software problem of any kind.
Failing that, it might be worth trying a dedicated font manager like FontAgent Pro, FontExplorer X Pro or Suitcase Fusion. I used Suitcase for years and I found it to be solid (though some found it to be anything but), but I now use FontExplorer X Pro, all have the ability to detect and in some instances repair fonts on the fly, whilst also isolating problem fonts.
That might be the best way to approach it, try one manager, load all your fonts into it and organise them, any corrupt ones will be flagged when loading, and then isolate those fonts into specific folders that you can then run through FontDoctor separately (without the overhead of 4GB worth of fonts weighing FontDoctor down) and see how you go with that.
It really might be worth your time converting all your fonts into .otf formats using FontXChange though, I have and it's so much easier managing them rather than f'in' about with the archaic formats of old. Just a thought. ;)

I have about 20 TB of photos. The biggest advice I can give you that others have stated is from the beginning organize your photos in a very logical manner and edit the meta-data to reflect what they are. This is very very important for when you get very large collections of photos.
Also unless you have a mac pro tower where you can put hard drives inside your best bet is an external for your pics.
With that many photos, do you 'phase out' HDD after a period or time? Meaning: lets say you have three 1 TB HDD filled with photos, do you replace drives before they fail? Then, how long have your HDD lasted without being used? Thanks for the information as it is "food for thought."

Hi,
is there a program that automatically embeds the cover arts downloaded with itunes "Get Cover" button to the specific music files?
And is there a program that provides cover arts from a specific site you want to use?

well i use to charge through the wall but with the new ipods its little more difficult than that because i gotta go behind my computer and unplug the cable since the ipods use a new cable. it should take 3 hours to charge fully. if nots charging in that amount of time i would say go for the wall.

cheap solution...
jailbreak it yourself
Great. Then what?
Jailbreaking doesn't unlock it and many iPhone 4's cannot currently be exploit unlocked.

Many people opt to use a standard account for their normal day to day stuff and an admin account for updates and system maintenance type tasks
It's primary benefit is protecting the system from intended or intended actions. While many people use a single admin account there are benefits from restricting access.
With a new computer or a reinstall you are present with a series of screens to create a new account and that new account is an admin account. You have to have at least one admin account.
After which you can create multiple accounts (both standard and/or admin). To create the accounts go into the system preferences and select Accounts. Click on the plus sign on the lower left (of the padlock icon is unlocked if locked unlock it and enter your password) select the account type and details. You now have a new account :)
