iPod Help

Greetings all, Thanks to a perfect srorm of failure (electric power and UPS *argh!*), my machine was shut down while my iPod touch was docked with iTunes up, loading class audio files. Upon reboot, my iPod as stand alone shows loss of all music and playlists. However, iTunes (on my office G5) show

Re: iPod Help

Did you try doing it manually? Where you drag each song out of iTunes library and drop it into your iPod so it doesn't replace the songs already in it... You should find this under iTunes preferences... -Original Message- >From: DLC >Sent: Nov 11, 2009 12:27 PM >To: G-Group >Su

Couple of questions. How do I tell whether it is a rev 2 or not? How do I take out the hard drive? I took out the small screw to the right but it still is fastened somewhere. How difficult would it be to put another faster processor in there? What is the latest OS that I can run? Thanks --~-

g3-5-list@googlegroups.com

ok the Rev.2 ones have 16MB of video RAM (use system profiler.) For the hard drive, there is a tiny screw that is covered my the IDE cable when its plugged in. And finally, they can run Tiger. (btw thats what im on, a 400MHz one.) Oh, as for CPU upgrades, you unclip the heatsink , list th

officially and according to many of the know-it-all sites, the last compatible version of osx would be 10.4.11. however, if you plan to drop coin on a CPU upgrade, i would recommend a powerlogix G3/1GHz. there are good reasons why a G4 upgrade is problematic in a B&W, including things like being

Data Recovery Part 2

A couple of months ago, I reported trying to recover an external hard drive used on a Mac but formatted as FAT32. I believe it was wiped out by Disk Utility doing a quick format. Recovery attempts under Windows got a lot of files, but barely any were readable. I'd post a continuation on the old th

Re: iPod Help

I think the reason why only the mp3 files were messed up is because they came from iTunes and everything else was down loaded from other places like desktop??? So the problem was probably caused by iTunes??? This is only a guess... So I'm glad you got it straightened out, I'm always afraid
