Hi everyone
I have recently tried to install windows XP on my mac. What i think happened, was that i THOUGHT i was using bootcamp, but in fact it tried to install XP as the main operation system. In any case, i was stuck in the XP setup blue screen, without being able to complete the installation, get back to OS or even get the XP installer disc out. After spamming the Disc removal key, i finally got the disc out, but when i restarted the mac, a flashing folder showed up. I found out this was because the computer could not find a operating system to boot by. I plugged in the installation disc and tried to repair the disc but it could not. I finally gave up and tried to reinstall the whole thing, but it could not find the harddisc.
What i am asuming happened is: I must have said yes, when the XP setup asked me if i wanted to format the disc. This (ofcause) ment i could no longer run OS on the disc. I realise all my school work, notes and files are gone, what i want now is just my computer back with OS. How do i format the disc back so that i can reinstall OS on it? Please help, and yes i know it was very stupid to format the disc in the first place.

Dear all,
I am trying to write a back up scripts for all database at my office; so, I wrote a mysqldump script and trying to use crontab to schedule run the daily backup. However, the backup sql file is generated, but with an empty content. It seems that the cron daemon does run the job, but return an empty file. I tried running the script on command line and it worked just fine (the proper backup script was returned). Why does my backup script work with out problem when I execute it manually from command line but not work from crontab/cron daemon?
All backup scripts and the crontab file were written by root account. Below is my short back up script and the crontab file:
sh-3.2# crontab -l
55 11 * * * root /bin/sh /Volumes/Pharmakon/bin/backup/database.sh
sh-3.2#
sh-3.2# more /Volumes/Pharmakon/bin/backup/database.sh
/usr/bin/mysqldump -u root --password=xxx --all-databases >/Volumes/Pharmakon/backup/databases/backup.sql
sh-3.2#

I'm tempted to get a MacBook Air to replace my MacBook Pro and then get my self a maxed out iMac for the heavy lifting. The iPad is 'too little' in the way of features, the MacBook Pro is an over kill in performance but the MacBook Air seems to be the nice middle road compromise that'll enable me to do some light work, internet stuff, the occasional bit of website editing (I use TextWrangler) and running Office 2011.
Then again I said that last time but ended up saying this I went for a MacBook Pro lol it will be interesting what the Air will have in the future given the move to Sandy Bridge might lead to a refresh in the future which will include the updated Sandy Bridge successor with a slightly improved integrated GPU.
As for others out there, I know many have gone for it over the MacBook and MacBook Pro - especially those who need portability over speed given the speed sacrifice is minuscule these days with the latest crop of CPU's available.

Yeah, not the best news for 3GS buyers. That said, I dont think anyone should have buyers remorse with the iP4. The display alone will make the upgrade worth while:) But, (if 3GS isnt on the fritz) waiting till Sept. may not be a bad idea. The A5 is superb.
The screen on my 3G s ended up not functioning twelve days ago and ended up buying a new iPhone 4 because I needed to. I must say that I'm pleased with my phone. The Retina Display on my new phone sure makes a world of a difference compared to my 3G s display.

Do you know by any chance on how swapping sims work withe official unlock? Do you have to connect to iTunes every time and new sim is inserted or can you just swap sims on the fly?

Not working for me.
- I added "# 74.208.105.171 gs.apple.com" to my hosts
file.
- Downloaded iPod Touch 4G 4.1 firmware, and Shift + Clicked the restore button.
- Successfully put my device into DFU Mode (Power off, plug in, Power + Home, let go of power)
but nothing works for me.
I always get an error code (number 3thousandsomething)
Is there a way I can fix this?
I have the 4.1 file if you need it.
So when you go to iTunes, and do Alt+click, you can choose the file.

Hi, I just noticed this thread and if you happen to be interested in a custom firmware psp with a bunch of extras I can give you a link to pictures and more info. I'm not going to list details because chances are that your not interested.
Cybergypsy has an opened 8GB iPhone but she doesn't want an iPod Touch, she will trade even for a 4GB iPhone. So if you can a hold of one of them, that'll work out for both of you.
I want to get rid of my touch so I can get a iPhone, thus the trade. Thanks for the offer, but I do not need nor want a PSP.

If you look closely, Anandtech refers to a MacRumors thread that we started here 2 months ago. That said, the Samsung drive does appear to be a nice silent upgrade for those lucky enough to get it.
Any statistics available for those who have one vs the other by any chance?

Well when I get home tonight I will try it as N only under 2.4.
If that works I might upgrade my extreme.

Hi, firstly sorry i have posted this in the wrong section.
Anyway I want to buy an external hard-drive for my macbook, and i was just wondering if i need to get a specific type for mac. I would like to use it with time machine but is it also possible to use it for my windows 7 partition too? Any suggestions to which external hard drive i should get? preferably cheap as im a student but 500gb + . Thankyou in advance :)
Any external hard drive will work with PCs or Macs, as long as the connectors are there (Firewire, USB, etc.) It doesn't matter how the drive is formatted out of the box, since you can re-format any way you like. Yes, you can partition and format the drive with Disk Utility, to accommodate both a Windows 7 partition and a HFS+ partition.

Depends what you want. I bought iMovie separately because I didn't want/need the others.

I read an article that said that Intel chips are more likely to attract hackers, because in order for the chips to work properly, Mac have to recode the OS therefore causing a loop hole which hackers can use - Only something I read but if its true, who knows?
