Contacted apple support, as it is down for more than a day. They said they are working on it and expect it to fixed in an hour. Hard to believe a software that is essential for all their iOS hardware is down more than a day. (btw, thx for the link to oldapps, though I need the mac version, I like the fact some one is keeping the older versions).

Well, I finally got something else different to the 6701s:

Project 6067
TPF: 5min 11s
PPD: 7906

Not bad, especially for just 60W of power.

Well... I was so anxious to get the Vertex 3 that I jumped on Pixmanias offer to deliver faster than any other mainland suppliers and even cheaper. Therefore I cancelled my order at always reliable Dustin.dk. I shouldn't have done that :S

What happend is this.

I cancel at Dustin having found better price and faster delivery.
I order at Pixmania.com
They write they'd be able to send the item from april 1st.
April 1st comes, but the date gets pushed to april 5th.
April 5th comes, but the date gets pushed to april 8th.
I write them to cancel my order, and here's where then chain comes off the wheel...
After cancelling, I immediately check my bank account, and I'll be damned... the bastards reserved the cash amount for the item.
First of all, I don't see a reason why they would reserve money in advance for an item they don't even have in stock and by pushing the dates give me the impression that they wont likely have it any time soon.
But the worst I think is reserving the money after I cancel... what the hell!?

I my nerdrage I ofcourse head straight out to look at reviews (yeah... next time do that before I buy something... I know) and atleast in Denmark where I live, Pixmania.com is getting hammered for bad service, faulty items, and a logistics circus when returning items (mind you, apparently you pay for returning the item yourself :O... hallo, are we living in the 90s??)

So do yourself the favor, don't buy at Pixmania, the reduced price is not worth the trouble you'll go through in case something is wrong :(

what the heck is a 4g iphone?

No thanks guys, really want a 4G iphone unlocked.....

I love the white/plastic studio displays, just got a 20" about a week ago :D

but personally I think $450 is a little high for a 17"

I live right near the Ardmore store, so I'll be going there for the release, but I already ordered my copy online just to make sure I get it.

One suggestion: open the known-working Xcode 3 project in Xcode 4. Build it. Make sure it works.

If it works, then use it as a known-good reference to check the non-working project.

If it doesn't work, then figure out why it works in Xcode 3 but not in 4. It may be an Xcode problem, or it may be a faulty assumption in the project that just happens to work in 3 but not in 4.

How long do you think it will take to have to knowledge to actually write my own App. That would be App Store quality ?

Depends on what the App is supposed to do. ;)

There are plenty of apps in the store that could be written by someone with no knowledge in ~6 weeks on their own, but there are also many that are much larger.

You will get a better appreciation of this as you make it through the books you have on hand.

Skip "Become and Xcoder" it's too outdated to be useful .

From Apress Learn Objective-C on the Mac (http://www.amazon.com/Learn-Objective-C-Mac-Scott-Knaster/dp/1430218150/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1304255800&sr=1-1) gets far better reviews than "Objective C for Absolute Beginners"

"Beginning iPhone 4 Development" also gets good reviews, but may require some previous knowledge, and "Mac Programming for Absolute Beginners" is so new it does not yet have any reviews on Amazon.

I would suggest Kochan's "Programming in Objective-C 2.0 (2nd Edition) (http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Objective-C-2-0-Stephen-Kochan/dp/0321566157/)" as an alternative place to start. It is the "standard" book for learning Objective-C 2.0 and as such many folks are familiar with its content.

You need to do what keeps you engaged. If that means working on iOS apps on the hardware, do that, if you learn better by developing a fundamental base, you will generally spend a lot of time on console (text I/O) stuff that will help you develop the underlying knowledge you need.

I believe Sharper Image still has them in stock too, might want to check it out.

iGary, I think you do need the help. I mean, just look at your signature. ;)

I think that his signature is very nicely colored. Wishing you luck with your dilemma. It wouldn't hurt to meet the person though.

I would keep it.

Damn early adopters always get the mud sandwich. I bought an early iPad 2 and All I got was mad light bleed and now I have to buy Lion.. Life sux

Forget Parallels, VMWARE Fusion is much easier to use and less buggy.

The OP claimed Parallels 7 was already installed in the first post.

marshallbedsaul, read the Parallels documentation or find a guide (http://www.simplehelp.net/2009/02/02/how-to-install-windows-7-in-os-x-using-parallels-desktop-a-complete-walkthrough/). Installing and using Windows within Parallels will be FAR easier that what you were trying to do in your first post.

could you let me know how much the shipping would be?
thanks.

I posted this question in an older thread but realized that the topic was somewhat different.

Here is my problem.

I am in the process of migrating my iPhoto pictures over to Aperture. Because I have close to 100k pictures and short clips, I can not import my entire 500 GB library at once because I don't have enough hard drive space to support both iPhoto and Aperture libraries at the same time. I also thought it might make sense to not have one gigantic library. Also I would like to have my old photos separated by years, and I don't know if Aperture would do this if I imported the entire iPhoto library (which does only separate them by events) at once. So it appears to me that the only import method that would work (please correct me if this is wrong) would be to open the "Masters" directory of iPhoto in the Finder, and drag and drop each year's directory into the "Projects/Library" panel in Aperture. Note that I do not want any editing information preserved from iPhoto, so using the Masters seems to be the most space efficient thing. So far so good but there appear to be at least two big snags. Firstly the yellow projects folders within each blue years folder in Aperture are not in chronological but in alphabetical order and I can't find out how to fix this. Secondly (and much more importantly) the dates on many old photos have been altered in an apparent random manner during the import into Aperture! Therefore they do appear in the wrong locations in my events library, according to the altered date. There are many too many photos that have been changed to undo this manually (I estimate it would take several weeks to do this).

But how and why could this have happened in the first place?

I also noticed that even when I change the dates of the Aperture masters to the true ones (by comparing to the masters in iPhoto), they still remain in the same wrong location in my Projects/Events library, according to the date originally (and falsely) assigned by Aperture.

There surely has to be a way to import photos into Aperture without ruining their date stamp?

Thanks in advance for your help!

The issue wasn't addressed in 4.3. Apple doesn't find it a problem. They did it on purpose. Is anyone working on a way to fix this? It seems that the reduction of power has to be a software control not a hardware control thus it should be able to be changed by someone with programming/jailbreak experience. Any help would be appreciated!

Buy. A. Case.

OMFG people.

someone submitted a track off this album to DailyTunes a while back, and I refused to post it thinking it was a joke, like the person who submitted a track from the fart album. Agreed, it's different, but not in a good way. This album is a prime example of a middle-aged person living in mom's basement and collecting computer parts and recording equipment. Now he has an outlet for selling the 'songs' to fund his growing collection. :D

What the heck is a brother printer?

This is a term I am unfamiliar with.

Aw man :(

I would love, love, LOVE to help. But I'm so time-strapped right now I'm not even keeping up with Nintendo Players adequately. Part-time IT job + student = suckage.

The article said the house was 108 years old. It is probably protected by some historical society (or would become so once they applied for demolition). Then they would have to spend a lot more than $61,000 fighting those people in court.

They are in the northeast, not the west coast, so I don't think 108 years qualifies as necessarily historic. This issue has nothing to do with historical preservation societies.

The original owners should have disclosed this fact and should be sued. I don't care if there is a law on the book requiring the specific disclosure of whether the house was used as a drug lab -- the house is hazardous to their health and that alone seems like a material fact that should be disclosed during the buying process.

Wouldn't a lawyer take this case for the good PR alone?

**** the police.

Is it possible to put a regular GeForce FX5500 into a Cube? Or do you need a special "mac edition"?

I'd suggest that you add some screenshots at every step, at least it'll be easier to follow and gives people reassurance that they're on the right track.

I agree on this one for fresh mac users picture can help me more then text :) but joke aside nice guide
