The goal would be to have that whole library accessible from my laptop and then played through AirTunes speakers.
If you are going to put the library on a file server you need a high performance file server and a fast network connection to the server. A USB drive conected to an Airport routers s NOT a high performance server and WiFi is not a fast network.
The best way to do what you want is to put the library on a desktop mac of some kind. You'd want a fast Firewire external drive and then from inside itunes you "share" the library. This way the over the air protocol works at a higher level and uses a LOT less network bandwidth. The down side is that you need a server computer alsays on. But given the cost of your library (even if those songs were ripped from used CDs you have invested a fortune) so what's added cost of a used mac Mini and a FireWire disk or even a Firewire RAID?
In short your problem is that you are sharing at the file level and you really should be using iTunes to iTunes sharing.

i'd probably just do the base 13", if you're getting an i7 imac.

Or why not an MBA? It should be able to handle Aperture fine, not sure about Final Cut - might want to ask on the MBA forum.

Learn something new everyday! :D But to clarify, you have to be in the volumes directory first, and it does actually have to start with "New" right? ;) But I did the same trick with another volume and it worked nicely. Very cool. :cool:
You can use it for guessing commands as well. It will list out the possible permutations if there is more than 1.

I have been communicating via PM to HexMonkey, thanks for the clarification on what has occurred. I didn't notice that the article hadn't been moved, I mistook the "cleanup" template tag, as a tag signifying the post was moved to the "ugly" category. I was in error thinking that.
The point of the cleanup template isn't to tell the original author that they need to clean it up, but rather that the community in general needs to clean it up, since each article is not "owned" by the original author (so a PM wouldn't be appropriate). Personally I don't agree with them being called "ugly guides", it's usually more an issue of them not being consistent with formatting of other pages (and sometimes also having bad spelling and/or grammar) than them being ugly. For reference, all I originally did was add the cleanup template to the top of the page, and as a side effect it's added to the Ugly Guides category. I didn't "move" the article there.
I have no problem with people making changes, that wasn't the issue. The issue was the fact that it was changed without notice while I was still working on the page ( I and many others are still learning the interface) .
since each article is not "owned" by the original author (so a PM wouldn't be appropriate).
I understand that fully, but i don't agree with the PM comment. The issue with PM'ing people not being appropriate may be true for a huge Wiki, or one on a site that isn't associated with a forum that has a PM system. Macrumors is neither of those, and it only takes a second to see if the person that created an article is online by checking the forums.

Hi. This is my first post here. I've been through most of the forum entries and googled around but didn't seem to find an answer to my specific question. So here goes:
I've had my MBpro 13" since the summer of 2009. I know my way around a PC but Mac is a new experience to me but I wanted to try it out to see what all the fuzz was about.
Sometime last summer my Mac started to freeze when I opened it up after sleep mode or brought it out of stand by mode (I hardly ever turn it off but the problem is the same after a fresh startup). It did not matter what application I was using, Mail, Safari, Firefox, Chrome, iTunes, Finder - whatever application the result would be the same. The beach ball would just keep spinning and spinning and everything would be locked down for about a minute or two. In the beginning of such a period I could navigate to another window or the desktop and click something but after about 10 seconds I couldn't do that either. After a minute or two everything would be back to normal.
Originally I thought it was Mail that was causing the problem because I resolved it by deleting the plist. But after getting all of my mails back into the inbox and getting 2-3 feeds from various sites the problem was back. Deleting the plist and not getting the feeds helped for a while - 3-4 months or so and then the beach ball-problem came back. This time I stopped using Mail for a while to see if this was the problem. It wasn't and in the end I reinstalled the OS.
Some months later everything started all over - only this time it was worse. Grey screen prevented me from doing anything and after a hard reset I couldn't even access the desktop. I tried everything - pressing D or T during startup, pressing Option-command-p-r, but nothing helped.
Another reinstall solved the problem for a while. And after that I've been running a repair disk permissions regularly. Somehow it always found something to repair - this struck me as odd but I thought, as long as it's not freezing I'm good. Well - now it's freezing again and it started after I installed 10.6.7. I've unticked the harddisk sleep-thingy and removed Firefox but the beach ball apparently doesn't care if I use Apple-software or not. Last freeze was in Safari. The time before that was in iTunes.
ANY help would be much appreciated. Could my hdd be corrupt? Why didn't I have a problem the first year then?

Got there around 8:45 and walked out with PAYG 32GB less than an hour later. Nothing as miserable as last year, which was a 7 hour wait outside an O2 shop.

Well what will you use it for, what apps will you run? The ibook is not slow, the only time it will be slow is for running some pro apps such as FCP. Also you might want to consider the 12" ibook since the 14 and 12 inch have the same resolution.
Well, I'll be using it for notetaking, the occasional graphic work and quite possibly some numbercrunching come next semester... We'll be doing statistics :eek:
Basically, you could say that what I need is an advanced typewriter, but then again, I imagine that once I get to know the machine, I'll be wanting it to do more stuff? Never had a portable before....

Will the mods entertain changing to [Resolved] status upon a request to do so in a post report?
Personally, I don't think it should be something we do for others or others should report for threads that aren't theirs. It's just a helper, not something that is enforced like a rule.

Yup, that's the one.

To be honest, I think the only way to achieve 100% Excel compatibility is to, well, use Excel.
I mean for ordinary personal stuff I'm sure cross-compatibility will be no problem. But if you are running a business in which you are constantly sending and receiving Excel files, I'd probably just bite the bullet and continue to use Excel.
It may be somewhat easier to achieve good results with Excel than Word though, since spreadsheets typically are less focused on style and formatting.
And not only Excel, but to 100% guarantee things look the same, you need to use the PC version (if you're dealing with PC customers) and you need to make sure you use a font that they have, the same screen resolution they are running, etc.

Have had my macbook 13 inch 2011 for about a month now.
Sometimes when I go to burn a cd i put the cd in but it doesnt grab the cd it doesnt even work..
When I go to reset the computer I can hear the drive put it self back in place, then once the comuter is back from restart it will take the cd in...
Not a huge deal but kinda annoying when I have to retart everytime..
Is there a reason why this is happening?

what you described is very seemingly possible. look into PhoneGap (http://www.phonegap.com/) - you can develop apps in CSS/HTML/JAVASCRIPT that are compiled as normal apps. Nevertheless - it could probably also be done simply by making a normal website that utilizes the iOS Webkit - run the Mac with a local wifi network [not sure if there is a limit to how many people can be connected at once?] - then with MAMP running the server.. just have all of the ipads loading the server page.. using PHP/mySQL to keep track of who finds what. PhoneGap is the slick way to do it.. but might be overkill.

Thanks guys I got it working based on the suggestions. I just have a learning curve to go through after being with a PC all of my life. Luckly I'm not having too many issues.
On another note, anyone have a good idea for a travel bag that will carry a 13" mac book pro with charger, Iphone and Ipad 2. Any suggestions or experiences will be help full.
The only other issue would be MS office for mac as I'm having a hard time getting the exchange server to work but I think that is on my side not apple or the computer.
Thanks again.

how did you verify that the adapter you referenced on amazon will take a 24 pin zif cable? I'm reading elsewhere that adapters for this interface simply don't exist which doesn't make sense :(
I'm in the same bind as you...
At this point it is the best guess I can make. Given that it is SATA and the ZIF-24 is SATA. Though I am starting to think it will not work. I'll know when it arrives. I could always use a ZIF-40 adapter at some point. If that is what it turns out to be.
Anyways I managed to verify the power button of the Air's top case was faulty and shorted the correct pins on the motherboard to fire it up. The computer booted and is currently backing up the hard drive and awaiting a replacement top case.
