I've got a 20" iMac with a 2.16 Ghz C2D processor, 2GB RAM and running Snow Leopard (10.6.7). I bought the computer new in late 2006. There is plenty of hard drive space left (196GB). The machine had no issues until last week.
Essentially last Friday I started experiencing a lot of hangups when using the machine. On a subsequent reboot, the dock completely disappeared and I could not recover it. Suspecting something became corrupted on the OS, I performed a simple erase on the Hard Disk, reinstalled the OS and restored my Time Machine backup. It seemed to resolve the problem.
A few days later, the symptoms returned. This time I repaired permissions and checked the hard disk, which came back okay. I also ran AppleJack with no success. It's not a user profile issue since the symptoms are evident on the new profile.
At this point I'm concluding the hard disk is going bad. Are there any tests I can run before I buy a new hard drive to install?
Thank you
Jesse

I like the idea of the air but I wouldn't touch one until they get a modern CPU in there. Core 2 Duo doesn't cut it in 2011.

Hello, I have been trying to import songs from my iTunes library to my Garageband to edit them and take sections out as loops.
However, when I import the song (either by dragging or using the media import), Garageband automatically converts the song and removes all the bass. Is there a way for Garageband to not convert my music?
Thank you so much.

Here was the problem per my server support people:
"It turns out that the hard drives were overheating and the server would not boot properly because of the heat. The server has been re-racked in open air and the case fan was replaced to remedy the problem."

He isn't selling keys.
He is selling locks.
And I'm not buying.
it's little more than a drop in the bucket.
And as we all know, drops are what it takes to fill the bucket. I'd think sales from iTMS are far from insignificant for Apple. iPod wouldnt be were it is now without the Music Store (and vice versa). I'm not gonna pretend to know, but thats just my thoughts.

My friend bought this last month. I was weary of the controls at first, but after I started playing it I didn't give a rat's arse.
We finally finished all 6 games last Saturday. It cost on average $10 in credits for each game. So for $39 the game is a deal. :)
I loved the part where my character got turned into an uzi wielding orangutan. :D

If it is a simple GPS device like the Garmin iQue(sp?) it won't do well as most cars these days can get equipped with them at a fair price. The place that this device might do well is Korea, seeing as many of their mp3/video player manufactures have included GPS integrated or as an add on on their player. Like the new Cowon P5, and N2.
Now if it is a gps system in a camera now that would be interesting but kind of pointless? Unless someone can give a reason why it maybe good.
And gps on a phone is nothing new as Nextel and Verizion already have this option. Unless it is google maps for a phone that isn't a pda things may get interesting.

We will see something similar to what happened last Fall? - Apple holding an event in september, then a couple weeks later another invite goes out saying "One More Thing..." like last year. and that event will be mid october or something?
Or are we done for the year?
vPod. *fingers crossed*

What do you mean by 5 extra lines?
Probably a poor choice of words from my side.
I mean that the last 5 lines of the page were transferred to an extra page.

Everytime is slow for me. On top of that, I think it's pretty buggy. I tried to send some emails that were only like 3 sentences long, and I get an error saying that the message is too big! :confused:

what's the model number of the dell monitor?
3007WFP-HC
If you're looking for something else besides that, I'll have to check when I get home from work.

Did you miss this from the article???
"The 3G network will be complemented by UMA, which lets phone calls transition between cellular and Wi-Fi to enhance indoor coverage. But we'll only see "market trials" of UMA this year, according to Dotson"
Last time I heard 'Market Trial' was ITMS on a Mac.......

Glad you got it working.
For me it's not just the iPad but happened on my iPhone 4 too.
I have not figured out why but it will work when I either do it on a different machine or boot into another partition like the developer preview of lion.
I always thought that the jailbreak did something in the system but don't know for sure.

I don't think it is laziness as much as it is impatience. After the news that Comex jail broke the iPad 2 there hasn't really been any news or reason why the jailbreak hasn't been released yet. I know, from googling, that he is waiting to package it a little better. But following the various twitter accounts there really hasn't been any news.
My advice, just follow the blogs and they will let you know in a timely matter.

would you be taking any trades, like ram for laptops or desktops (mac), dvds or other stuff.

You can lock rotation and mute at the same time:
You select one function for the hardware switch and the other one then appears on the multi-task control bar (double tap home and swipe to the right: The far left hand side will show a mute option if you have the hardware switch set to rotate lock and a rotate lock option if you have the hardware switch set to mute)

With the MaxConnect BackPlane Attachment for Mac Pro [2010] Systems (SZ-MACPRO10-MS06) I can't make it out too well from the picture but it appears there's a small adapter attached onto the back of the hard drive ports correct?

Was reading the article on the Dell monitor posted and it mentioned a new display connector - ughhh!
I don't know if this is good or bad, only that I have 2 Apple monitors with ADC connectors. Monitors are still good but I am running out of computers which they can connect to!
No graphics card uses DisplayPort right now, so it's pointless.

I'm right there with you on this one. Please add some more inputs. HDMI!
Yeah! Or change their names back to "Studio" Displays because Cinema indicates I can watch some films on this thing - yet it can't even hook up to a :apple:tv/PS3! :p
