I saved some triggers in quicksilver for itunes, for search artists and ratings and some others, used the control+option+command keys+the number keys, but they dont seem to work...itunes plug-in is installed and activated and also the triggers are activated...any help..changing the key combination also doesnt help..

Also if i save documents in textapp, there is no other option to save directly to the location of my choice, they r predefined, any way around this?

Hi,

I am having trouble with syncing Nokia 6280. I have Macbook pro 13'' (the latest model) with Snow Leopard. iSync version is also latest, 3.1 I guess.
I checked in Apple discussion forums, no solutions posted. When I connect via bluetooth, i could browse the files and stuff, but I couldn't sync my contacts... it asks me to add the device and when I did, it just quits *unexpectedly*.

I tried various other solutions I found find from google searches including the ones listed for Noka 6300 and Nokia 6230i ( they are similar it seems...)

Does anyone face a similar problem??

Hi,

I am having trouble with syncing Nokia 6280.

Have you tried Nokia support? They release a plugin for iSync that's supposed to work with their phones. I don't know if it works for the 6280, though.

Guys are you using any malware or spyware or antivirus softwares on your mac? Is it required? I like the free life and dont want to use but just asking if i am missing something.

wow this whole thread changed! Where's Ayush or Goobi? Are they like gone?
Anyway, I just bought a external HD and started using it with Time Machine. It is a My Book Home Edition 1TB. I wanted to change my settings so it backs up once a day, not once a hour. Is that possible?

@Artemis:
Some must have software for mac:
1. Transmission
2. iWork 09, especially Keynote
3. Candybar for modding the system themes
4. smcFanControl, totally awesome app to control system fan
5. Tweetdeck
6. Perian, you can't live without it
7. Handbrake
8. Skype
9. Audacity
10. Aperture, although iPhoto does fine
11. VMWare Fusion if you need it
12. Growl

I would not say 70deg is normal when only there is 30% Cpu usage. I am using around 40% and my temperature is 60C

I have checked in Nokia forums, Apple forums and posted in Apple and nokia forums. Seems iSync 3.2 and Nokia 6280 have a match made in hell. I will wait for the current developer release which is due to be released after testing in a short time to see if it fixes this issue.

[goobimama]

You gotta do that on your own sonny. Just pop the hood and plonk a new one in. iFixit.com should do the trick. In the meantime, chew on some carrots will ya.

 

[bazer]

Can't it be done by authorized apple service center in delhi like anything mac in yusuf sarai?

 

[goobimama]

^^ You have to buy official HDD which will cost $$. Unless you're good with the Apple Store guys in which case they'll do it for free. Trust me, do it at home. It's easy.

 

[bazer]

Any suggestions on the HDD to buy?

 

[bazer]

I found a couple of HDD on ebay, Any idea if they will be compatible on my 2 year-old Mac mini?

WILL 7200 RPM WORK ON MY MAC MINI or will it cause problems like overheating and stuff?

7200 rpm 320 GB

*cgi.ebay.in/Seagate-320GB-SATA-Lap...tDomain_203?hash=item5883e3e414#ht_4058wt_851

5400 RPM 160 GB
