I'm using iTunes.

Before you rip the CD, select the track and choose "Get Info." In the "Options" tab, there are fields to edit the start and stop times for the song. Edit the stop time so that the …

Garageband can also cut out unwanted parts. Just drag the file into the edit window and put the playhead where you want to cut the track. Then select Edit>Split Track at Playh…

SpaceMonkey, I never knew that! That's really good to know! I'm Impressed. UNTeMac's method is the method I've always used. And I like this method.

Thanks for the help. I've been in a lot of classes at work and haven't had a lot of time to catch up on my reading, so sorry I hadn't replied until now.

So I went back with the pod today and they hooked it up to an iMac at the shop and lo and behold it starts! Imagine my surprise. It was stone dead when I had tested it at home only…

Glad you got a new nano and it is working fine. Sometimes something similar happens to me with an iPod Video, I need to reformat it to get it working again, I have no Apple dealer …

I think bootcamp only allows you to make the two partitions. You can, however, format your windows drive as FAT32, and then you can both read and write to it from OS X. I find that…

Yah, boot camp only does 1 for you hence doing the partitions before using bootcamp. The purpose of having the extra partition would be so that one would not have to reboot into t…

If you get this to work, please post back. That's the partition scheme I'd like to have, too.

While I don't know of a built-in method to get this to work, a third party partition manager such as PartitionMagic should do the trick. Install it under Windows and use it to sub…

Well, you can share data and (some) applications, by having Parallels use the Boot Camp partition (if it's FAT32) as a "shared folder". But otherwise, yeah, you'll need to install …

I'm sure you can use the same activation key, but I agree that you're going to have to create 2 seperate Windows environments. Another thing that might make it easier is installin…

How does using Parallels for Windows help in this situation?

might make it easier to share apps or files between the 2 windows environments.

I'm begining to think an external drive is the way to go here. This impression is enhanced by my recent purchase of a Bytecc USB 2.0-to-IDE adapter kit-including a drive power sup…

you all see parallels just released the RC? anyone downloaded it?

well, I'm using the RC now. the coolest feature is the 7 or 8 new ways to switch between OSes in addition to the flipping cube feature. my favorite is the "warp." pretty cool, c…

I hadn't though of using Boot Camp AND Parallels at the same time in this context, and I dont' even know if it could work. It wouldn't matter how many partitions you set up on the…

are you implying that people should share files between OS X and a bootcamp windows environment thru an extrenal USB harddrive? I guess this would work with no problem, but seems …

well, I've seen Parallels in action sharing files. I mean, I don't know exactly what kind of files you're referring to, but just transferring Word files isn't a problem. Some for…
