Hey guys. I have a powerbook and an Ipod. Both for about 8 months, both awesome. Never had this problem. Today, I can't add any songs to my ipod. I click them, try to drag them ove…

Is it full?

I am having a similar problem. After updating to 10.3.9 iTunes blocks up when I try and transfer songs to my iPod. (These are my own files created using iTunes) iMac G5 trying t…

I expect this is very easy in Cocoa, but I can't find a good reference to it... I just need to launch the default web browser from within my app, passing the required URL. Note: …

Take a look at the docs for NSWorkspace.

thanks Chuck - that did the job!

hi all hope this isn't a repeat post... i was recently (well today) given a dock for my ipod but its not an ipod photo dock (and i have a 30g ipod photo). my question is, will t…

Sorry, I'm pretty sure it will not fit your photo.

It should not cause any problem, but there is always that potential. . .

hmmmm.. i've managed to plug a 20GB U2 iPod into a dock for a G4 40GB iPod.. the only difference is that there is a bit of a gap at the back of the dock.. it still works fine thoug…

the photo dock has an additional S-Video connector, and the regular docks don't. Otherwise, the dock for a 20GB 3rd generation iPod fits a 30GB iPod Photo just fine.

I have plugged my friends iPod Mini into my 15 gig dock. It was loose but it still fit.

Put a spacer of some kind on it to tighten it up. It will be better for connector life.

Has anyone had any success compiling the source code? I get errors during compile with Xcode and end up with a broken app.

Success! Here's what you need to do: 1. Create a new account named "johnd". Log into this new account. 2. Download the FFMpeg source code from http://mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/cvs/. I…

I'm not sure I understand this. Let me get this straight, this Accellent thing is for better mpeg2 playback by using the gpu, right?

Exactly. Apple�s DVD Player is currently the only app that can make use of the GPU to decode MPEG-2 content. Other apps, such as VLC, must use the CPU to accomplish this. While a …

The most recent FFMpeg snapshot that compiles using the patch files is 4/18/05. Accellent cannot play any high definition MPEG-2 files (those with a video size greater than 720 pi…

Bad news: this is broken under 10.4. I've pulled all the files together and set everything up nicely. It dies, invalid kernel access and such. I've emailed the author. We'll see …
