Hey guys,
I need alot of help. I convinced my sister to get an iBook a few months ago. I told her that mac is way easier than PC. Now it appears that her computer is freaking out. She is calling me for tech support and I don't know how to help her. She is having very strange problems. So I will have a series of threads to help me with these problems, I would greatly appreciate any input.
First problem: She was having trouble with video (I will get into this later) and I told her to repair permissions, prebind, etc. To do this I had her get Cocktail, I figured it would be the easiest way.
Now, after she ran it, she cannot open Microsoft Office or iPhoto. Office is the most pressing problem because she is a student. When she opens it she gets an error message telling her she has corrupt fonts (see attached pic). She then has to force quit, nothing will work. I would suggest a reinstall but she left the CD at home (the parents are mailing it up, so this will be an option later). I have ran out of ideas, but hate to leave my sister stranded! ANY IDEAS ON HOW TO FIX THIS?? Thank you all so much.

I might line up at Laval.
Anyone have info on if we can buy just the phone, without a plan, and then jailbreak it so it can use my current rogers plan? iPhone plans are gonna be nuts. I want to be able to just go in and buy it, without signing up for rogers.
Also, is there a limit on how many we can buy? My dad wants one, so I would be buying two...
and can they be payed for with a bank card?

Dang. I need to pick up my Macbook pro that's back from repairs today.
Hopefully I don't have to wait in line.

No, comex did it, so its possible. As said a million times before, he has not released it because it contains proprietary code which he does not own, and it as of now it does not work on other than 4.3 (one of the multiple exploites he used was patched).
Im hoping that d0nfyxn's jailbreak is real, allthough its probably fake, i think its our best chance at a jailbreak within a month.
With Comex no linger working on the ipad2 JB looks like d0fxyn is the only hope at this point. Wow, not sure why but didn't think it would be this sure when I bought my ipad2.

As I posted in a more obscure thread,
Never forget that the zune brought us this:

I still find it a little disturbing but I think it's also possibly the single funniest thing I've ever seen involving Microsoft.

Just out of curiosity, what do you want a new Cinema Display for, exactly, that the current ones aren't doing?
Reason I ask is because you seem pretty eager about it, but haven't really clarified your need.

4 drives:
320 Gig WD Raptor (10,000 rpm) as system drive
1 Tb (7200 rpm) for iPhoto
1 Tb (7200 rpm) for iTunes/video
other external HD for backups, etc...
Have 5 of RAM in there now (2-2-1-0).
So was initially looking to upgrade RAM, but then thought maybe SSD could be more bang for the buck. But if my bottleneck is the iPhoto drive I think simply upgrading my system drive to SSD might not get me as far...

They did bring back the Sony Walkman and it was DOA. Lots of models with no one wanting to buy them. It was a big strategy for them. Sony doesn't know how to market things anymore. Actually, Sony doesn't know how to design things anymore either.

Sony can't even protect their successful products anymore. Look at the upcoming disaster with the PS3 and LG.
Never wanted a Zune, but having one less music player would lessen the competition a bit.

This is the vulnerability those security pundits have been warning was coming.
What would I rather do: Hack into Apple's servers to implement a legally very dubious unlocking service for $170 (which is obviously highly overpriced, because Apple could do the same thing for free if they wanted to) that might open me up to litigation from Apple, or create a website that collects $170 a shot from gullible iPhone owners, do nothing, and run with the money?

The library included with Komplete 7 is ok, pretty broad ranging but not amazing sounding.
From your mention of VSL is it specifically orchestral samples you're after?

I have a 2010 mini with dual monitors. From time to time, when I wake up the machine, one of the displays doesn't wake up. Instead, it shows nothing but static. This isn't isolated to one display port or the other...it happens from time to time with each of them. Ideas.
I think a few other people have mentioned that too - I experience the same problem, but always on my Mini-DisplayPort monitor, not the Mini-DVI (I have the 2009 Mini).
I take it powering off/on the monitor is sufficient to bring it back to life? That typically works for me.

Hello there!
I set up a mac mini server for my little company a few months ago and I find it to be overkill for the simple tasks I use it for. Originally I planned to setup a web hosting service, an email server and a wiki but our needs didn't grow as I expected and we found simpler alternatives.
Anyway, I am now thinking about selling it but I was wondering if it was simple to transfer the Mac OS X Server license. I can't seem to find info online on how to do this and I don't want to sell a product which won't easily be usable.
Any tips on doing this?
Thanks!

Have you tried deleting redsn0w and downloading it again? maybe it's the file. I had a similar problem and replacing the .exe file fixed it for me.
Yes I've tried that several times. I also tried first when the jailbreak was for 4.3.1 and the tried it again when they updated redsnow to jailbreak 4.3.2 (after I updated my device to 4.3.2 of course). I also tried using the iphone firmware stored in my itunes folder and also downloading the firmware from the dv-team link. Same results with every time. Weird!!!
Another thing I should mention was that although my model number indicated I was on the old boot rom as opposed to the fixed I got an error message saying that I was indeed on the fixed boot rom. I restored my device and tried it again using the fix boot rom option. Since then I haven't received that error message but instead what I mentioned above happens. Could this be my problem?
