A 4-pin firewire port (which is what most windows computers seem to have) does not supply power, so the iPod can't charge from it.

My nano battery seems to wear down quickly. I could listen to my shuffle for days before recharging, but the new nano seems to be dead within a few hours. Is this normal or do I ha…

It should last at least 16 hours.

16 hours is hard to achieve. You have to completely turn off the backlight and just let the music play. Any click wheel or backlight activity will drain the battery quicker. My …

This is from the apple site about batteries: Quote: Maximum Battery Life iPod can play up to 20 hours, iPod nano can play up to 14 hours and iPod shuffle can play up to 12 hou…

Yeah I only get maybe 4-5 hours max out of it. And that was using at a gym so no changing songs etc

4-5 hours is horrible. I never have my backlight on or Sound check.

yeah you should really be looking for about 8 hours

Hi all, My 15" MBP was repaired (the iSight camera didn't work) and when I got it back from service I was told that the problem was with the camera, which was replaced. The service…

Does the serial on the case and system profiler match?

They might have just given you a new one, I sent my iPod in to have the clickwheel fixed ( it wasn't working after only 4 months of use) and two weeks later there was a brand new o…

They can and do use refurbished logic boards/parts for warranty repairs. My rev A 17" refurb had the PC Card and Airport controller go out. Replaced with an older board which had t…

I had a new logic board installed, and it doesn't have a serial number, System Profiler reports Serial Number: SystemSerialNumb which apple said is because they don't have any me…

I've checked the serial number on the sticker under the batter pack and it is my original serial number, while System Profiler shows the other (older) serial number. So I suspect t…

The battery symbol with lightning is supposed to be on when it is plugged in.

Hi all I am trying to use my shiny new Intel iMac as a part-time web server. I couldn't get it to work and finally decided to call my ISP (Telus) to see if they were blocking port…

Common secondary ports are 81 or 8080, that I've seen and used.

Ok I'll give those a try. I know I'm going to need to configure Apache using terminal for the new port but I'm a total terminal newbie. If someone could give me keystroke by keyst…

Why would an ISP block THE PRIMARY WEB PORT? It doesn't make sense to me, unless they want you to use THEIR browser... This is odd as all get out.

It doesn't block outgoing requests only incoming.

Oh. Different issue, obviously. As noted previously, 81 and 8080 are commonly used alternates. There are also some dodges you can use through redirectors. However, if the ISP …

Oh absoulutely. I don't intend to open it to the general public. I only want to be able to access my music using iTunes Catalog at work when I am on midnight shift.

I have given up on this for now. I did manage to get Apache reconfigured to use a different port but no matter which port I choose I still can't see the default Apache web page. I …
