I disagree. The drive is doing the right thing in not burning at 8x on media that it cannot guarantee will handle that write speed. If people were burning coaster after coaster, th…

So I received the Maxell 8x DVD-R spindles from Buy.com, and low and behold, the discs are recognized at 8x. Unfortunatly, like the Apple DVDs, this doesn't mean that it actually …

Whenever mine has been in a deep sleep [not used for over a day] and re-start, get the Apple pic then it starts up and the Clicker sound has been re-activated. Think it is just a …

I have the same problem. Not sure about having the logo come up, but the clicker always comes back. Kind of annoying really.

well im relieved to hear that others are experiencing the same problem. i guess ill hold off on sending it back under warranty until i get closer to the expiration date.

Sometimes, after I pause my shuffle and let it go to sleep, it won't wake up. Most of the time I think it's on "hold" and I can't get it to wake up so I can take hold off. But now …

i've had that too... its annoying i know. but i dont thing there is anything we can do about it... maybe a firmware update about sleeping would fix it, but i dont know if it is eve…

Remember those tech-decks? Those mini skateboards all the junior high kids used to play with a few years ago? I used the screwdriver that came with them. IMO it's the best screwdri…

If its been running before hand, let it cool for a while and see if having a "cold" powerbook makes it easier to get the cover off.
