Re: iPod Battery Replacement
Hi Joe You raise an interesting issue re batteries. I faced this recently with a mobile and ended up in a heated debate as to whether original manufacturers Vs generic were best Battery World have a large selection but my choice from them of a generic for a Motorola mobile was a mistake Graeme On 24/09/2010, at 2:23 PM, Joe Mastrella wrote: Greetings! i have an older iPod Nano.

iPhone apps
We now have two iPhones under the roof, all seems good, will have to try facetime! I have two phones set up on iTunes - under the same store account ( it said I could add another phone as an option). My question is about 'apps' - I have paid for some, am I able to use them on both phones or are they limited to just mine?

Re: iPhone apps
Hi All I think there was some 'mischief' when initially setting up new iPhone4, which cleared after I re-synced my original iPhone.

Re: Toast 10
Hi Daniel I must be doing something wrong! I've done all that as explained but it doesn't work. It is a DVD containing a series of geological maps to be read/displayed on a pc laptop. I put it in the Toast, choose copy, select DVD. It goes through the process of reading and copying the original, ejects and asks for the blank disk, get that and copies onto the disk. finalises and ejects the disk. But when I put it in the pc laptop, it won't read or display the information. It's done it to two different disks now. Reads the originals no problem, but not the copies!

Re: Toast 10
Hi Peter What discs are you using? DVD-R or DVD+R? The Mac's superdrives are DVD±R (so will do all, read and write). But if the laptop is only one type, then it may not read the other. (eg if you burn DVD-R and it only reads DVD+R). The original disc doesn't have some form of copy protection on it? Sometimes it will look like it's allowing you to do it, but there are some hidden files that stop it. That's all the things I can think of for now. About to get some sleep as just finished working about 45 hours straight,... Hope that helps.

Re: iPhone apps
Good morning all (what a gorgeous day) I was doing my morning read of the WAMUG questions, when this series of emails on iPhone Apps caught my attention. Only a theoretical question at the moment - well now that I think about it, three questions. We have more than 2 AppleMacs in the home, one iPhone and one iPad ( plus several iPods). Two household members each have their own completely separate iTune account and buy their own music of choice for their own Macs. Question One: If there are two iPads in the house, is it possible to buy Apps for two iPads from one account? Obviously the original iTunes account (set up many moons ago) was not initially set up for two of anything). Question Two: Was/is there a way to transfer the Apps from the iPhone to the iPad? (This may have happened automatically I can't follow through on that question within the household at the moment). Question Three: Is it possible that the Apps already purchased can be transferred from the existing iPad to a second iPad? I do of course know that iTunes music can be transferred from the AppleMacs onto the iPods and the iPhone, and that this also successfully transferred to the (one at the moment) iPad.

browsers
Good morning Yesterday I changed browser from Safari to Chrome. This is not a suck it and see temporary alternative. These are the bells of freedom type of change. I have been an avid user of Safari for years and, on and off, tried Camino and Opera and Shiira and Flock and OmniWeb as well as Firefox. I started to feel frustrated with Safari a few months back, because of the drag on the CPU and other sluggishness. After each Safari update I thought this is the one that will free it up and give it the speed its purported to have. But it seems to get slower and command more processor power and RAM. So I gave Firefox another go for a couple of weeks and it seemed faster with less drag on the system, but its bloated with add-ons and other stuff. Then I gave Chrome another go, spent time setting it up nicely with some extensions and having a serious go at Google's offering as contender for my main browser. The longer I used Chrome the more I liked it. It seems to render pages faster than the other browsers and there is far less drag on the CPU. The interface is clean and stripped down, the add-ons sit in the tool bar and are less obtrusive than in Firefox. The spinning rainbow disc has not appeared in my browsing life since Chrome - it was a never ending fact of life with Safari. So, I managed to break away from the Safari habit and feel a sense of freedom with Google's Chrome. I wonder what WAMUG users have to say about browsers these days?

Re: browsers
I haven't experienced the beach ball with Safari since I turned off the stupid top sites. All that seems to do is fill up with thumbnails and gradually render the whole thing unusable.

Re: browsers
After reading Edward's positive words about Chrome I downloaded it. It started up showing a set of bookmarks I had long stopped using. I am NOT keen on Google as it works in Firefox, but Chrome is less cluttered. Wouldn't use Safari for the reasons stated below. I also recommend Scroogle to restrict what Google learns about what you do.

Re: Toast 10
Hi Daniel Thank you, that was the answer. The DVD drive in the laptop only reads the + disks! You would think there would be some way you can tell, or some info on the laptop to tell you that this was the case. Regards Peter On 25/09/2010, at 12:32 AM, Daniel Kerr wrote: Hi Peter What discs are you using? DVD-R or DVD+R? The Mac's superdrives are DVD±R (so will do all, read and write). But if the laptop is only one type, then it may not read the other. (eg if you burn DVD-R and it only reads DVD+R). The original disc doesn't have some form of copy protection on it? Sometimes it will look like it's allowing you to do it, but there are some hidden files that stop it. That's all the things I can think of for now. About to get some sleep as just finished working about 45 hours straight,... Hope that helps. Kind Regards Daniel On 25/9/10 12:10 AM, Curtis Peter pe...@augold.com.au wrote: Hi Daniel I must be doing something wrong! I've done all that as explained but it doesn't work. It is a DVD containing a series of geological maps to be read/displayed on a pc laptop. I put it in the Toast, choose copy, select DVD. It goes through the process of reading and copying the original, ejects and asks for the blank disk, get that and copies onto the disk. finalises and ejects the disk. But when I put it in the pc laptop, it won't read or display the information. It's done it to two different disks now. Reads the originals no problem, but not the copies!
