adding audio books to itunes

[Niklas Petersson]

Hello everyone, I have started to add some downloaded audio books to  
my Itunes library.  Some add without any problems, some will not add  
at all.  They are all recorded in MP3 format, but the naming standards  
are not always the same.  Any suggestions to have for adding audio  
books to Itunes

All help is gratefully received.

Nik

Hi,
Justin,

I feel insulted. We are a small development team, yes, but a dedicated  
one at that.

mounting a vmdk image (windows)

[william windels]

Hello all,
I have a corrupted vmdk-image, something is wrong with the boot tasks  
on this windows-system.

I have fount how to mount my windows image (fat32) with vmdkmount but  
it's read-only.
Is there a (safe) way to mount it read/write?
I could perhaps do chmod 777 in the terminal on the Volumemap of the  
mounted windows system but perhaps this is a bad idea.

thanx alot!
best regards,
William Windels

Re: daisy player for IPhone

[Scott Howell]

Will, tell ya what, e-mail accessibil...@apple.com and hit them with  
the idea. I encourage you and anyone else to do so and explain the  
benefits etc. I have done this and the more folks that ask, the more  
likely it will be given consideration. Hey, it would be the first  
truly mainstream product on the market. I realize we are a minority,  
but you know with a little help, it is possible someone could develop  
an application to run on the iPhone or iPod Touch. I'm not saying  
Apple has to do it all, but for the purposes of authorizing the  
device, it may require a little help on Apple's part, but not entirely  
sure. Anything is possible.

Re: daisy player for IPhone

[Chris Blouch]

Sorry. The text to speech and gesture recognition require faster 
hardware which is currently only in the iPhone 3GS. Many expect a 
similar bump to the iPod touch this fall which implies the accessibility 
software will then work there as well.

That reminds me of something.  Is it true you can buy an iPhone G3 without
the plan download new software for it, and it will talk like the new ones?
Or basically an iPod touch and get the new software and it will talk like
the new iPhones?

Thanks guys, I've been needing an FTP program and couldn't remember
what the name of the one I've heard blind mac users talking about. Had
thought it was transmition or some other automotive sounding name. It
is called Transmit though? Very good to know. Thank you
Jenny

Re: Anyone ever serviced an Emac?

[ben mustill-rose]

Hey tim and thanks for the reply.
The units don't make the chime sound and I can't here anything come to
life internally.
The cd drive has both its power and ide cables connected but I can't
seem to find a ide cable for the harddrive so i'm assuming that that
has also been removed however I see a spare power connector that would
fit the harddrive.

Based on this and on what you saying about the powrer button, would
you say that these units quite lightly have broken logic boards?

Again, thanks for the reply.

TK:  Did either of them make the startup chime noise?  Did their power  
supplies appear to send power to the unit?

TK:  As far as I remember, there's no cable to worry about, pressing  
the power button will make contact with the necessary component on the  
power supply unit.

more expensive to repair than to purchase a new model as what normally

Re: VO accessible FTP Client

[erik burggraaf]

Hi, I expect you will soon be berried in recomendations for transmit b  
Panic software.  It is marvelous, and will handle all types of secure  
ftp transfers, as well as syncing your idiscs and .mac accounts and  
manual folders.  It's your full featured, fully accessible off the  
shelf ftp client.

Best,
