I want to use a 2nd gen iPod nano (Aluminium) as a USB stick too - is it
still necessary to first connect it to a PC (so it does not get

I plan to share data from PC to Mac with it.

Does anyone have the Toast updater from 3.5.x to 3.5.7 (or to 3.5.6)?

[I have Toast 3.5 on my old PowerCenter 132 but am updating to a burner
(Yamaha 4416SX) it doesn't support but 3.5.6 and .7 should.  The updater

iDVD. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi, about six months ago I bought a secondhand G3 which arrived with
OS10.4.7 already installed. Today I wanted to hook the G3 up to a
camcorder to edit some video, only to discover there is no trace of
iMovie on the machine. I thought this was automatically installed witrh

For no apparent reason, iTunes tells me that my playlist with 60 min of
music will not fit on 1 CD. I've burned many CDs with 70 min on a 700MB
blank disc beore. Why is it limiting me to about 45 min of music?

In the last week, on the Optus newserver, I have been getting a

    I created a spreadsheet and it looked right until I added a
header. At this point the spreadsheet divided into sections. It wouldnt
let me undo. I could remove the header, but that didn't remove the

How would I go about altering the iPhoto e-mail send preferences if I wanted

I used to have a great movie joiner for Mac Os X. It was called AV Join,
or AV Joiner, I believe. It was simple, free, and required no new codecs
to download. If 20 video parts were in the same window, and you simply
clicked on or dragged part .001, it would automatically join ...

Can anybody help me with software, etc. for an old Mac Plus?

I will be spending Christmas with my elderly mother in Ireland. Don't
