It's not a bad thing to run Disk Warrior and do a backup once in a while. There are thousands of photos and music files on that computer, not just the kid's files. But back to th…

I had my ipod connected to my pc, i was getting songs off of it to my computer.. my computer froze up so i turned off computer and took out my ipod. Now all my ipod does is keep s…

RESET the iPod. Turn the hold button on and off, then hold the Menu and Select buttons for about 6-10 seconds. That should do it. Oh, and Welcome to the MacNN Forums!

i try to reset the thing.. it does.. but then it gets to the apple thing.. then it makes a hd click noise.. and turns off again

This happened to my 3rd gen after it was dropped in a glass of milk.

Oh Windoze, what has been done?

lol, it's supposed to click when you browse your music. You can turn it off in the settings menu. It's called, "Clicker" I can't say I'm as happy as I thought I would be with my…

only reason that imconsidering the low end besides savin afew bucks is the superdrive is soo weak. why not just get a external 16x DL superdrive. Anyone else gettin the low end mod…

I'm contemplating it to offset the cost of Applecare, Canadian PST + GST, a 100GB HD and 2GB of RAM... I'd give up a DVD-R for that... and I have another desktop anyways. I'll jus…

Whenever I have gotten the low end, or cheaped out somewhat on PCs, I regret it. With my new BlacBook, I got the 80 gig model thinking I would buy a bigger drive later. If only the…

It's a very pricey option to go for a Blackbook... I'll decide on Saturday whether the differences are significant.

just got back from the apple store and saw the black and white im leanig torward the white dont get me wrong the black was beautiful but the white got my attention guess it was the…

I got the "low end" MacBook since I store all my music/movies/shows on my PC, I'm in college, and I can get a 300gb drive and a DVD burner in the PC for about $200. I am also runn…

I got the low end one and used the $50 i saved from the student discount to upgrade to a 80gig HD. I would have got the middle model had there been a DL superdrive, a single layer…

i bought the lower end white macbook in store and then upgraded with 1gig of ram i ordered from newegg. it's my first mac, and i must say i LOVE this laptop! i installed windows …

The only thing that would tempt me away from the low-end model is the superdrive. The difference in speed is negligible. As long as you don't mind having a combo drive, the low-end…

yeah. i went with the low end for the exact same reason. the superdrive in the macbooks is weak indeed. and no dual layer. you can get a FAST, DUAL LAYER 16x external for cheapish.…
