Yes this is just a plain fact. MY ipod charges when connected to the PowerMac G4 with the firewire cable but the desktop and itunes don't see it anymore. I see as with everyone e…

Just got off the phone with amazing tech support guy at www.ipodresq.com - He talked me through this without having to send in my ipod. AMAZING. (This is a second hand description.…

I launched Disk Utility and hit restore on the iPod drive. it asks for an image...what am i supposed to do?

has anyone been able to solve this problem without wiping their ipod clean? Is Apple doing anything about this problem?

i just got a new ibook g4 and all 12gb of my music is on my ipod, nowhere else, so i'm not about to do anything that would require restoring it until that music is safely on my ibo…

Where should I go to learn (for the complete noob) about either one? After reading a few web pages, I kinda leaning towards Objective-C, but I can't find any that don't already req…

In either case you should really learn plain C first. But for Mac-specific programing, Objective-C is the language of choice. It has the best integration with the Mac APIs (eg, C…

Yes, Xcode will compile ANSI compliant C code.

Xcode can compile C++, Objective-C and plain old C. So you've got a compiler no matter which you go with. And yeah, a search would probably turn up better recommendations than you'…

Definitely spend most of your time learning C first. It helps to take a class in it. Then Objective-C will come easily.

Good luck making your decision. Like everyone, I agree that you should try and learn C first (or use the Cocoa bindings from a language like Python if learning C isn't your desire…

Objective-C has more than one syntactic extension to C. It adds keywords such as @implementation…@end and @try, and the <ProtocolName> syntax for indicating conformance to a …
