 If you go to someplace that sells Mac RAM, like Data Memory System

   they'll list the maximum amount of RAM you can stick in. They show  
 what works, not necessarily what Apple lists as max in their specs,  
 although Apple's been better about that in recent years.

 IN your case the max is 1GB per slot.

80 or 30GB ipod

2009-01-18 Thread KP

Right now I have about 2/3 of my music on my laptop and it is taking
up 7.83GB and it will continue to grow. These are at a pawn shop and
they are the only two available there.  I am leaning toward the 80
because of the idea that I can use it for extra space if necessary,
but will I ever use the extra.   So it's like $50.00 for an extra
flash-drive.  The 30GB is newer and so I guess my question should be
is there any advantages, such as newer software on the 2007 iPod than
on the 2005 iPod?  I'm guessing that when either iPod is connected to
my computer with the internet, then the they should update to the
newest software.  Am I correct?

 Someone who is looking for pictures of relatives AND someone (like me)

 it's 'future' isn't tied to ANY corporation or group of corporations
 AND the nature of the file format itself is designed for storing lots
 of information in the headers (in my case an excellent parking space
 for my 'exif type info/names,dates,titles). Further benefits come from
 the fact Any Tiff file is openable many decades from now because even
 if it falls into total disuse 'generally' all it takes is a programmer
 to write a program to read the info and retrieve the image in the
 file. This is a seperate question from the current 'media' choice for

    No matter how wonderful your raw/dng file suggestion is, it's
 trumped by the 'benefits' TIFF brings to my specific situation. In my

 When you mark things as 'junk', 'Mail' starts a 'rule book' as to

 After a while, 3, 5, ? occurrences, it just assumes it is junk, and

 I.E. It's NOT a result of a recent 'junk' decision, but of a pattern

Re: New 500G Firewire HD - folders or partitions?

2009-01-06 Thread KP

Dan is correct.  Multiple platter HDs' use segments of all disks for
each partition simultaneously so the HD does'nt have to jump around to
find files, and the dick readers run in parallel so to put mord data
into the motherboard at one time.  The main reason I mentioned using
multiple partitions is not as much for mechanical failure, but also if
the partition accidentally gets erased or moved by someone else, then
you do'nt have to restore all of the files.

Another idea I have is to install 2 HDs' in your computer if possible
and designate one strictly for Virtual Memeory (I have only tried this
on a PC. I'm not sure if Mac even still uses V.M..) and storage for
non interactive files like photos', or media files', or pdf for
example with multiple partitions if you want.  Then designate the
other H.D. for the OS and interactive programs.  This is to allow the
Virtual Memory and the OS to work simultaniously without making one HD
jump all over the place.  It improves performance immensely.

 means the data in partition one will be stored on platters 1-2 and the
 data in partition two on platters 3-4.

 AFAIK, logical to physical block translation is done in CYLINDER

 quite inefficient; totally eliminating the point of having

Re: External DVD RW play dvds in osx??

The fact that you are using 10.4.11 indicates that you have used the

  My best guess is that under whatever version of OS X you're using(?)
  you need to install Patchburn to get the DVD player recognized by the

  more problematic because they shouldn't require Patchburn, so perhaps
  there are other issues? Does the DVD/RW model(?) have the latest
  firmware for it? Look in System Profiler for Revision: to get the
  firmware version.

 Patchburn for your particular OS X, takes care of the external drive  
 recognition.

 This might be more than you're willing to ingest, but I thought I'd  
 share it just the same.

 In my PCI Graphics G4 Yikes!, I only had an internal CD RW, and  
 wanted to playback DVD files from my harddrive, and as you  
 discovered, you cannot open DVD Player unless it finds an internal  
 DVD R or R/W ... so I went through the process of hacking the  
 DVDPlayback file as follows (I'm looking for the original www link,  
 but can't find it off hand).

 I later found it more efficient, to simply install a DVD RW, and  
 didn't need this hack:

 I hacked the DVDPlayback file using CoryM's suggestions for 10.4.10,  
 but it seems to work under 10.4.11. The first numbers needing  
 replacement, may be offset by 1 ...  (I'm not real adept at counting  
 in Hex) ...

 Suggested for 10.4.10:

 /System/Library/Frameworks/DVDPlayback.framework/Versions/A/DVDPlayback
 and the changes are:

 Offset 674A8:
 4082 0020 80A1 0040 3860  7CA4 F430
 to
 4082 0020 38A0  3860  7CA4 F430

 Offset 9E2C8:
 4E80 0020 7C48 02A6 429F 0005 BE01 FFC0 7FE8 02A6
 to
 4E80 0020 3860  4E80 0020 BE01 FFC0 7FE8 02A6

 I used Hex Fiend:http://ridiculousfish.com/hexfiend/
 as my Hex Editor (Fiendishly fast).

 Did have to realize the Hex address in the left column was always the  
 0th location, then I had to count 1, 2, 3, ..., A, B, C ... etc to  
 the right to find numbers like 674A8 (that's about 8 over from 674A0).

 Changing the Permissions for the .../A folder and DVDPlayback files  
 using Get Info was essential, as was having a backup copy of  
 DVDPlayback (all work done on the Desktop).

 When it was time to replace the DVDPlayback file, I found it  
 convenient to move the one in the A folder to the Trash, then copy  
 the modified one into the A folder, and then returning Permissions  
 back to the system for both the A folder and DVDPlayback file.

 A Restart made the new DVDPlayback file active, and I could then also  
 empty the Trash.

 Now if I could just turn off Deinterlacing, DVD Player might be  
 smoother ... (I'm also on a PowerPC 8500 - Sonnet G4/450 CPU,  
 internal SCSI CDRW (only) with Xpostfacto Tiger 10.4.11, CCCed from a

 A very good question and the answer is you can't.  At least without  
 downloading a sound editor or other recording software.  Audacity  
 comes to mind as adequate and free.  Not sure how Windows got that  
 over OS X, but they have always included a simple sound recorder  
 app.  HTH

Re: Installing PC3200 Ram into a PC2700 Dual 1Gb G4

2009-01-04 Thread KP

It would be a benefit if say your computer only accepted 512MB and you
put two 512s' in it rather than one 512 or two 256s'.  The reason
being is that one 512 will run larger programs but with only 1 slot to
transfer data.  two 256s' will use both slots but may separate some
larger programs when transferring data.  Two 512s' may only run 512MB
of data, but it will give you the versatility to load both larger and
smaller programs with with both slots.  This is from my own
experiance.

   Anybody have experience with this upgrade method?

   Will it work on this machine or will it fry my Mac?

   Would appreciate any advice.

 It certainly won't fry your Mac, as PC3200 is backwards compatible
 with PC2700.  However, it is likely that the 1GB stick will only be
 seen by the system as 512MB, which is still great as it's a freebie,
 and if you've got an open slot to fill.

 ... and let us know if it *does* see it as more than 512mb !!
 Because I'll want some too!
