I won an iPod Shuffle through a penny auction, and despite that it was supposed to be a black third-generation, I got sent a blue current-generation (I wouldn't complain about the upgrade). However I'm not a big fan of the blue color, though the finish is really nice. Which stores would likely let me exchange this blue iPod Shuffle for a silver iPod Shuffle without a receipt? Its really not a big deal for a store to exchange colors since they all have the exact same value. I wanted to try Best Buy, but I don't think they would do the exchange due to their fairly strict item scans. Ideas?

Hi,
I am uncertain if this is the same problem as Findesiecle5's post from 4 days ago, so I have started a separate thread.
Although I have been recording for many years, I have never used MIDI before, and am having a problem getting GarageBand to recognize it. Actually, I have always had many, many problems with GarageBand despite my Mac Pro being 'empty' of all files except those created in the program.
My set up is:
Mac Pro Quad Core 2.66
1 TB HD space (combination of several empty, new hard drives)
5 GB RAM
Firestudio 26 x 26 Firewire Audio Interface / Preamp
OS X 10.6.2
GarageBand '09 5.1
I bought the Mac Pro specifically for use as a DAW and have not used it for anything else - I think that I have only connected to the net on a few occasions with it.
PROBLEMS
1. Sometimes, the computer records perfectly, although there is something wrong with the software interface for the Firestudio as it is impossible to set different output/monitoring headphone levels for each track (I have had an audio pro who deals exclusively in Mac products come and try to troubleshoot this on two occasions, and he is clueless about this specific problem).
2. On other occasions, though, I can't get the computer to record at all: on those occasions I can't even hear previously recorded material in GB, although I can see it playing.
3. One of the 'wrinkles' is that there are two different drivers installed for the Firestudio in the Mac and GB 'System Preferences' - one is called 'Presonus Firestudio', and the other is called 'Presonus 1394).
4. The crazy thing here is that I can hear the playback only when the Mac 'System Preferences' is set to 'Presonus Firestudio' for both Input and Output, and the GB 'System Preferences' for Input and Output are each set to 'Presonus 1394' - if I choose the same named drivers for the Mac and GB 'System Preferences', I cannot hear anything when the track is playing.
5. A few months ago, I upgraded to Garageband '09, 5.1 (398), but had had the above problems before this.
6. In order to accommodate the new version of GB, I upgraded my OS to OS X 10.6.2
ATTEMPTED SOLUTIONS
1. I tried to uninstall the Firestudio drivers and software and erase all trace of them from the system, by following instructions I found on the Presonus website (I found the Presonus people very unhelpful - although several people on the forums were more helpful)
2. I reinstalled OS X 10.6.2 three times in order to try to get rid of the problem
3. Before making the above changes, I changed the system drive to a brand new, never used, hard drive.
CURRENT STATE OF AFFAIRS
1. Although it would be nice to send different monitor output mixes to my headphone amp (see 1. under 'Problems' above), this is not essential, and I can record (most of the time, as I said above). So, I can record pretty consistently.
2. Having said that, sometimes I will inexplicably lose the ability to record, often during the middle of a project or during tracking
3. I cannot get rid of the two sets of drivers for the Presonus in 'System Preferences'
4. Today I tried to use MIDI for the first time. I had bought a MIDI - to - USB cable, which has two 'male' 5 PIN DIN connections on one end - one for MIDI IN, and other for MIDI OUT - and a 'male' USB connector on the other end.
I plugged both of the DIN connectors into the back of my keyboard, and I then plugged the USB connection into my Mac Pro.
I received the message that '2 MIDI Connections are Present' (or something to that effect), but was unable to get any input signal and was unable to hear my keyboard playing via the computer.
QUESTIONS
1. My main question right now is really about MIDI, as I have resigned myself to most of the above.
So, what am I doing incorrectly? As I understand it, this way of connecting should work, although now I am tempted to buy the alternative form of MIDI connector, which has DIN connectors on both ends, and then plug these into the MIDI IN and OUT on the back of the Firestudio.
Will this make a difference?
2. If anyone has any suggestions about any of the other problems, I would be very grateful.
Sorry for the length of this post, but I wanted to give a complete and detailed context for these problems.

Your Powerbook should have come with a hardware test CD. I would pop that in and give it a whirl. Should tell you if there's anything seriously wrong with your computer.

Since the general feeling seems to be dual core only at the top end of the PM line, between the lastest rev 2x2G and the last rev 2x2.5G, which should I choose?
There is (where I am) a c.$400 price difference... The only difference on paper that I see, besides the speed and RAM expandability, is the 8x vs 16x+dual Superdrives.
1. I will not burn dual layers anyway for the long foreseeable future.
2. My usage is photoshop and hobby level iMovie HD and soon FCE.
3. 2.5RAM today seems right size and price wise.
4. I am uncertain about the addition price bringing noticable speed improvement.
Thanks! (You solved my questions last time with solid advice!) :)

i bought an ipad original today in the $100 price drop and love it. i would have gone ipad 2 but there is no retina so ill pass.
anyway, the number one feature that would almost triple the value of it to me would be the ability to answer texts i get from my iphone, on my ipad. its such a hassle if im walking around with it, to set it in a safe place and get my phone out of my pocket or backpack. is there anyway to do this? i will obviously jailbreak it if necessary.

I'm thinking part of it is a validation issue. You have problems both on the main page that declares the frames, and in the page where the frame leads to.
Use this validator. (http://validator.w3.org/)
Also, what I provided was slightly different than what you have. You don't have the ending /, which might make a difference. I've honestly never used the base tag so can't speak to it much.

My greatest piece of work is still in the development process. Its a web based appplication (product) I am working on for my company that will hopefully take off in the very near future. I took a screenshot to show off my limited UI design skills, but eventually should have a demo for people to use at some point.
PS. I removed the product name for business reasons.

I am at work, and need to rasterbate an image while I have both free time and access to a printer and scissors. My situation, though, is that we are a hospital, therefore no Photoshop, crappy windows box won't load arje.net/rasterbator, and homokaasu.org/rasterbator/wizard.gas?Phase=1 is blocked for having "adult content". I also don't have admin privileges to install anything.
Is there an iPhone app that will do this for me, or is there another (non-mirror) website I can use?

I was trying to install MySQL on my iMac and screwed something up. LOL I dragged the zip files to my var folder and extracted it. I am not sure where the files went. I am also now getting a blue home and net button along with a .DS_Store file, that I cannot delete, on my desktop that is driving me crazy. How can I completely uninstall all the MySQL files that I just installed. I don't want to accidentally delete something that I shouldn't.

I'm looking for an inexpensive recent iPod of a large capacity, mostly to use in my iPod speaker dock, so I don't really care if there are scratches on it or the battery life isn't good. And all I need is the iPod itself, any other accessories aren't really necessary.
Please post or PM offers. I would also be interested in a trade of some sorts for an iPod (I have an LCD, Ext. HD, and Ray-Bans that I'm looking to part with.) Thanks.

I'd rather see an open ended 2D version that utilizes both screens, like Yoshi's Island, and has many moves and animation frames. If the stylus is mandatory then I think I'll pass on this one.

It's so beautiful.
I got a Powerbook 12' on Wednesday. Its the first time i got a new Computer that didn't have any problem when installing the os, and using the buildin Hardware.
Also no problem with using a usb printer, usb storage devices and so on.
I was using Debian GNU/Linux since 1997 as my primay OS 99% of the day.
But the power MAC OS gives you is unbelievable. The terminal works great, all important things are available.
I wrote a termpaper with TeXShop and its an amazing piece of software. Everything works so smooth and I have no problems so far. I didn't even install my beloved vim because there was not need of editing a configfile.
And iTunes kicks ass ... I can see other macs playlists and can listen to them. I normally used noatun but this playlist management from iTunes is like dope :-)
I also have fink installed which gives me back my apt-get and apt-cache so now I really have the best of both worlds. A slick un*x os with a great gui and a huge set of applications.
I have not used my linux machine since I got the new Powerbook, and I think I'll get a new desktop next year which will be an apple too.
Thanks apple, awesome job on this piece of hardware and software.

Except HFS+ today wouldn't recognize itself if it saw its own picture from the 8.1 days.
Yes, and no. Yes, a lot of cool stuff has been added, but your Snow Leopard drive will still mount on an 8.1 machine. The journal will be reset, the file system event record for time machine will be reset, your spotlight database will likely need to be recreated, and you won't be able to read any files compressed for Snow Leopard, but otherwise, you'll be able to get to your files. Oh wait... no you won't... unless you're using an Apple Partition Map instead of GUID Partition Table (which technically has very little to do with HFS+ itself)... It's both cool and sad at the same time.
Last rumors I heard hinted that since the ZFS licensing fell through, Apple's working internally on their own new file system, which is almost a given, really.

I just made it home, and paid for printing ::sigh::
I guess in the future, I'll just make the .pdf at home and email it to myself; I worry enough about Big Brother logging my internet sessions, I don't need to try and circumvent their filters for something silly. I was hoping there was another site or an app or something.
True true. Probably the safest bet.
