Re: MacBook Pro mouse button issues

Thank you Paul for the eBay 'heads up', I had to go the Apple way, Nextbyte Nedlands had one in stock and as I need my Mac for work Monday, with a battery, after 6 weeks off work! I wish there had been some warning in place as my battery applications reported that it was healthy, with warning

Re: MacBook Pro mouse button issues

Hi Brian, I too had the bulging battery problem so I replaced mine with a new one purchased on ebay about 12 months ago. No problems at all so far and it was about $50 cheaper than buying from Apple. Looks like they're even cheaper now. Cheers Paul MacBookPro2,1 Intel Core 2 Duo 2.33 GHz http

Re: iTunes sharing

It would be a perfectly reasonable to assume as Peter did, that the kids' decisions to choose what they shared could be accomplished in the same way as he chose to share (part of) his library. I've just checked out the set-up on my network; the basics anyway - it works just as Peter had assum

Hi Peter, If the kids have selected in their iTunes > Preferences > Sharing - “look for shared libraries” & “Share my Library on my local network” on their Macs, each library will show under shared in each of their iTunes and they can click on a track and play it. They don’t need to have “Home

Re: iTunes sharing

Ok, thanks for that Ronni. however, the kids also want to share their libraries between themselves - whether I agree with the need for them to share or not isn't relevant apparently but i have no specific reason to inhibit their cross sharing. So that means therefore that between them they wont

Re: iTunes sharing

Hi Peter, That’s correct … Home Sharing should NOT be turned on the other computers iTunes … they are not Sharing their iTunes Library! Home Sharing is being handled via the computer that has “Peter’s Library” iTunes. I presumed you had Home Sharing only set on the one computer that was sharin

Re: Warning: Apple Store Fishing Attack Adobe, Edition

Hi all When you get potentially dodgy emails with links in them it is revealing to click and drag the links a little way, which shows the real url. If it matches the link text all is probably well (though still use your judgement)- if it's a long, complicated affair ending in .ru you mig

RE: iTunes sharing

Hi Ronni, I have accidentally made some progress with this. I did as you suggested by tilting the arrow, and still the whole library visible and playable. So I went Advanced>Turn Off Home Sharing" on one of the kids Macbooks. This still left "Peters Library" showing (but undocked) and when I selec

Hi Peter, Under “SHARED” on the kids computers there should be an arrow beside “Peter’s Library” Open the arrow and they should see “Playlists” … the “Kids Playlist” should be showing there? On the other computers that are sharing “Peter’s Library” what do their iTunes Preferences > Sharing h

Re: iTunes sharing

Ok, further to this. another test between the two Macbooks revealed the same issue. The full library was visible despite selecting only one playlist for visibility to others. at least that proves that Windows is not soley the culprit. Regards Peter.. On 29/01/2011, at 8:05 AM, Peter Crisp wro

RE: iTunes sharing

Ok, Ronni and others with iTunes sharing experience. I have a Windows PC with just a small library on it - approx 40 songs. From this library, I created a playlist called "Kids Playlist" where I placed 4 random songs so I could test the security around future sharing of my 110GB+ iTunes library.

Found it! The battery has started to swell, metal laminate cover near the battery condition LEDs has begun to lift, it puts pressure on the mouse button below the trackpad and that is what happened. When I removed the battery, the MacBook Pro started up (didn't know they worked without the ba

Hi Ronni, thanks for your response. Yes I checked and I have just one item "kids playlist" checked in the list of items. It is the only item I have ticked. The rest are blank, yet they can still see all content. It is from a Windows PC to a Macbook on the same network. I'll investigate further i
