Airport suddenly needs to be rebooted every day
|
| |
I have a client with an AirPort Extreme. He has been using it for several years without a problem. Suddenly EVERY day (definitely when he wakes up in the morning and sometimes at other points in the day - as far as I can tell when the computer is idle) the status light blinks yellow. When this happens he looses the wireless connection. If I plug an ethernet... more »

How user-serviceable are the new minis?
|
| |
I have an old iMac G5 which is quite easy to crack open and swap the hard drive, battery or whatever, but I understand Apple has gone downhill in this area in recent years. I was thinking of a Mini for an upgrade and wanted to get a sense of how servicable is it. You know, RAM, drives, etc... I know it's very compact, which is one reason I want it. Thanks,... more »

Magic Mouse and Spaces

I'm one who has become quite fond of Spaces, assigning my various applications to different spaces. I'm currently using a Kensington Slimblade Presenter mouse which has two buttons and a scroll wheel which also functions as a button. Pressing the button takes me into and out of the Spaces panel where I can select which of the sixteen spaces I wish to be active.... more »

Internal Optical Drive iMac Intel
|
| |

Sometimes a disc might have to be reinserted two or... more »

Recharge wireless peripherals
|
| |
I see the new iMacs come with wireless keyboard and magic mouse-- slick. So how long do they hold a charge (use/no use), do you have to switch them on/off, how do you recharge?

Are the internal speakers shut off -- or not?
|
| |
Suppose you're operating a MacBook with the internal speakers set to maximum volume, but with some audio cable plugged into the headphone output. The volume of the output speakers then drops to zero -- unless you shut down your MacBook (with the audio peripheral still plugged in) and restart it using the power button -- in which case the startup "Bong!"... more »
