My friend wants some of my songs from my itunes however when I plug in her 30GB Video Ipod which is formatted for Windows bc her personal computer is a PC it won't allow me to upda…

Actually, I don't think this issue has anything to do with PC or Mac formatting. The problem is that her iPod is set to sync with her computer, and if you connect it to another com…

1) no, if the ipod is windows formatted it can work on any platform, if its mac formatted just for mac im afraid 3)burn a dvd/cd

The ipod is Windows formatted. That's what we're talking about, so the answer is yes.

Not only can you add songs to that iPod from a PC, you can do it from your Mac, too. What you can't do is update the iPod's firmware from a Mac. THAT is whta the "PC/Mac Formatti…

Well, that's a little misleading. You can't take a Mac-formatted iPod and use it on a PC without special software. So Mac/Windows formatting clearly affects more than just software…

True, but the biggest issue is still which platform you can do updates from. A Mac-only user won't have any issues, but a user with both platforms will. Knowing that a "PC format…

Hey, I am the sorta proud owner of a 2.0Ghz Macbook White. However my discontent stems from a problem with the DVD/CD drive. I bet anyone of you can replicate this problem on your…

Well generally, you shouldn't tip your notebook anyway. I'm sure my iBook would do it if I tried.

My iBook did NOT do this. My MacBook DOES do this. I the idea of thin has been taken too far. Not only do we have this issue, we also don't get dual-layer drives either.

See I told you... and its not just like severe tilts.... its any tilt if your MB is on your lap and spinnin a disk at High Speed. Any Comments as what to do about it.

Ok, i'm sorry.

Just thought I would add a lil note.... The second MB that i recieved doesnt get nearly as spicy hot as the old one.

Ya both my MacBooks do this.

What if I want to watch a movie while on a car trip? That's partially why I got a laptop so it could do stuff like this.

Hmm.. The Sudden Motion Sensor is trying to park the DVD drive heads?

Macbook != maracas even though they both start with M! weird

I could understand it with something like the 360. The 360 is supposed to remain stationary, considering it is not a portable Item. So it would be easy to say DONT MOVE YOUR 360. B…

Hi there--With the release of the MacBook, I felt that Apple had finally created a portable that would get me to "switch." I've visited the Apple Store several times to check them…

IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM WITH YOUR MACBOOK. PLEASE CALL APPLECARE AND REPORT YOUR ISSUE. APPLE NEEDS MORE CASE REPORTS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. I have just g…

I'll try it on mine later. I just gotta find a junk disc to use. Have you tried playing the scratched disc? Does it skip or still completely functional?
