Hi,
I just bought the new PB15 HD and have followed all the threads about the display issue with big interest. Mine has the horizontal lines as well although not as pronounced as the ones I saw in the Apple store.
If I dont see anything about a fix before the end of the week I will send it back to Amazon since I dont want a screen that is not perfect. Maybe it is my imagination but it does not seem as sharp to me as I expected. Although still better than the iBook ones.
Today I noticed something though that might give another hint as to the origin of the horizontal lines problem.
When looking at the discussions pages at Apple support and scrolling very slowly the lines between the posting flicker substantially. I have not noticed this on any other cmputer so it tells me that something is up with this one.
It is almost perfect otherwise, gives me over 4 hours of use (realistic use) and has no dead pixels. But I dont want to settle for a less than perfect screen regardless. Then I'd rather take my chanses on the next revision.
Any ideas if the flickering lines could be related to refreshrate which would also explain the horizontal lines or is it just that the faint grey lines makes the horizontal line issue more evident?:confused:
Thanks

Yeah, dislocated shoulder is no fun at all. I popped mine out skiing about 15 years ago and it will still pop out every once in a while. You should definitely visit the doctor. Keep us posted.

that's the Smooth tool not the Brush tool. If that's what you really get when you click the Brush tool try resetting Illustrator's Preferences:
Move or rename the Adobe Illustrator Preferences file: Users/[user]/Library/
Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS[X] Settings
Then restart Illustrator.

You think anyone will release a standalone PPC emulation application such as Parallel's or would it still require Lion to carry over necessary kext's?
Windows is a hugely popular, current platform while PowerPC has been dwindling in use and support since 2006. The market for a PowerPC emulation environment would be tiny yet possibly more complex than Parallels or VMWare.

This is just the dilemma, I don't know! I would move it around the house from room to room. And am then not tied to a desk.
I'd planned just to get the basic iMac with an external hd to store all my movies, so could do that with a mbp.
Just concerned about having a MacBook pro left on charge 70% of the time. I have a feeling the battery life would deplete rapidly:s

I haven't got any spare keys to map to it, though - I've assigned them to other things, and most of its features clash with Quicksilver.
Thanks for the suggestion, though.

I have a wireless router supplied by Verizon for our FiOS TV/Internet package. I also have an old 802.11g Airport Extreme Base Station (the "flying saucer" model from 2005) connected to it via an Ethernet cable and configured as a bridge so I can run an Apple network. I also have an 802.11g Airport Express from 2005 in another area of the house to extend wireless coverage, and to stream Airtunes to our home theater system. There are two Macs on the network, both running OS 10.6.7.
Every so often over the past year, I'd notice that the light on the AE would be orange. I'd unplug and replug the AE, and the light would go back to green. I don't know what if any effect this had on our wireless network. Our Macs, iPhones, and iPads worked fine. Airtunes was spotty, sometimes working well, and sometimes dropping out. We also have a Sony wireless Blu-Ray player that streams Pandora, and it's been more reliable than Airplay, but it occasionally drops out, requiring reconnecting to the network.
Last week, the Apple network starting dropping out on a daily basis. Our Macs automatically default to the Verizon wireless router, but our iPhones and iPads don't. Sometimes I can reconnect to the Apple network, but sometimes the devices won't recognize the network password. When the latter happens, unplugging and re-plugging the AEBS restores the network.
Today, while troubleshooting, I noticed that the AE didn't appear in Airport Utility, even though the light was solid green. I connected it to my Mac via an Ethernet cable, and it appeared in Airport Utility. When I tried to check the settings, it asked for the password, but the password I remembered didn't work. So I did a hard reset on the AE to reconfigure it. I configured it to join my existing network, and to extend network coverage. I got a message saying that it was updated successfully, and to wait for it to restart. It never restarted; the orange light remained flashing, and Airport Utility gave an error message saying the AE didn't restart. I've tried the hard reset several times. When the AE first appears in Airport Utility, it says it's configured as a base station on its own network. When I go through the reconfiguration routine, it says that the update was successful, but the AE never restarts, and the light stays in flashing orange mode.
I don't know if I have multiple problems. Could I have a defective AE? If so, could it have been causing the Apple network to drop out? Now that I've unplugged it, signal strength is lower in the rest of the house, just as it was before I bought the AE in 2005. The network hasn't dropped out, but it's only been a few hours.
Could I have a defective AEBS? My MacBook Pro is right next to my AEBS, and it has full bars. However, I'm holding my iPhone 4 right next to my AEBS, and wireless strength is only 2 bars. If I move 5 feet away, bars go to full. Once I get to the other side of the house, it drops back to 2 bars. Airport Utility says that the AEBS is fine, though.
To my knowledge, I don't have any other devices that could be interfering with airport, but my next-door neighbor might. I'm going to try switching to a different wireless channel, but interference wouldn't explain why my AE won't restart.
Finally, if I do determine that my AE is bad, is it worth upgrading my AEBS to the current version? In other words, is 80211n (which our newer Macs support) less subject to dropouts than 802.11g, or does it just offer faster throughput?

One would hope that they'd update it by the middle of the year, but they did take about 19 months between the 07 and the early 09 Mac Minis, so if that's anything to go by, though unlikely it's possible the next update could be as late as early next year.
DarthMoops any Mac currently sold by Apple is called a new Mac even if it hasn't been updated for 18 months, it's still called a new Mac.

I'm putting together a second RAID 1 setup as I've filled my first 1TB mirrored RAID (LaCie) with photos and videos. I'm a freelance photographer and these drives hold my livelihood so RAID 0 is out of the question.
I've picked my RAID enclosure (NewerTech Guardian Maximus) but found it's cheaper to buy my own bare drives and put it together myself.
I found a great deal on 2TB WD Green Drives with 64mb cache and 3Gbps SATA but then realized they are 5400/5900 RPM drives. This is mostly for storage of my RAW files that I read/edit using Lightroom in addition to storage of video files that are edited etc via FCP.
I'm on a 2010 15" MBP which means eSATA is out and I'll be using FW800. While out of the question from the start, I realize that buying 10,000 RPM, 64mb cache, 6Gbps SATA drives is silly because they'll be limited by the throughout of FW800.
So, keeping in mind that FW800 is the limiting factor, do I need 7200 RPM drives? 64mb cache? 3 or 6Gbps SATA?
Thanks in advance!
-Dave

Hi folks,
This is confusing me. I've done this before without issue, but I transferred 19 MiniDV tapes onto Mac using iMovie into DV format (while I edited another project on my other mac in FCP).
My client could only play some of the files on his Windows machine (win7) using Quicktime. Then he may have deleted Quicktime and now Windows Movie Maker has taken over and changed the default file opening so he can't open the others.
Yes, I do have a copy of the files on my computer.
I saw this suggestion from Apple's board, but I don't seem to have this option of dv-avi in Quicktime (7) Pro?
" Export "Movie to AVI" and use the DV Stream format.
This makes a .dv file inside and AVI container which will work with Movie Maker. "
Should I try exporting with QuickTime Pro as AVIs? Would that work on a PC?
Other clients have used the DV files so I'm a little confused why this client can't ?
Any help would be hugely appreciated.
Cheers,
keebler

Hey guys - I emailed nullriver and got a very fast response. Here it is, and it worked for me... I'm awarding myself the "dumbass award" ;-)
"Hi,
Are you sure you are looking under teh correct section? For example audio podcasts will only appear under the PS3's Music section and Videos/video podcasts only under the PS3's Videos section. Photos will only appear under the Photos section.
Also check to make sure that MediaLink is configured correctly, for example, in the System Preferences->MediaLink->Sources->iTunes section be sure that "Share only tracks that are checked in iTunes" is NOT checked."
My problem was that I was looking under the videos - not the music section on the PS3. Fixed.

Try manually mounting your time machine backup. It is stored on your backup disk as a *.sparsebundle file. Execute the following command to access it :
sudo hdiutil attach <time_machine_file.sparsebundle>
sudo hdiutil attach <time_machine_file.sparsebundle>

My new ibook does that too. You don't have a dvd burner, that's why. It has no need for the blank media so it spits it out.
p.s. my ibook it the last rev, obviously the one in my sig.
