MacPro Sales To Stop March 1 in EU Countries If you live in a country under the European Union and you were thinking of purchasing a Mac Pro, do it before March 1st. Apple told reseller and channel partners recently that it would stop all sales of the desktop system on March 1st to comply with new EU regulatory standards. IEC 609501 Amendment 1, covers safety and electrical standards as they relate to electrical equipment and unfortunately for EU customers, the Mac Pro does not comply with this standard, due to issues with power provided to its I/O ports and the placement of its fan guards. The MacPro is the only Apple product to fall under this ruling, becau…

So my wife wants a new laptop for Christmas. She has finally realized what pieces of crap each of her previous PC laptops have been, and since we are all Apple on everything including our phones, she wants a MacBook. But.... There are a couple of programs (including her software that runs her embroidery machine) that are Windows only. I downloaded a demo of Parallels on our iMac, but couldn't seem to make it work properly. Can someone suggest the best version of Windows and the best "parallel" software to run Windows programs on a new MacBook? Do I have to buy Windows AND the "parallel" software. Any suggestions about getting a full version of Windows inexpens…

How do I transfer audio files to a PC via USB port wire from iphone recorded with FiRe? FiRe is a better (free) recorder than the built in Voice Memo as it has a volume slider. You can also buy a $ 30 STEREO CHEPO MIKE THAT PLUGS CONVENIENTLY INTO THE iphone. Voice memo though has a emailer built in. In order to combat piracy Apple does not allow for iOS device -> computer transfers via the USB cable. Have you tired using Bonjour in Safari? To access your FiRe recordings with Bonjour in Safari: 1 Launch FiRe on your iPhone/iPod and turn on Browser Access. 2 Open Safari on the PC and click the book icon in the upper-left corner of the browser window (it…

Is anyone out there using a netbook hackintosh for simple file management or non-critical playback? I recently got OSX running on a Dell Inspiron Mini 10v and so far it appears to work pretty well. A 10" laptop with 6-hour battery that fits on a cart nicely and can be found used for less than the price of a lavalier mic. Is this all too good to be true?

The Next Web writes of a speech Jobs gave in 1983 at the Center for Design innovation. After that speech, he had a question-and-answer session that covered a wide range of topics, one of which was an incredibly detailed assessment of Jobs' vision for a "computer in a book" that one could learn how to use in 20 minutes. "Apple’s strategy is really simple. What we want to do is we want to put an incredibly great computer in a book that you can carry around with you and learn how to use in 20 minutes. That’s what we want to do and we want to do it this decade," says Jobs. "And we really want to do it with a radio link in it so you don’t have to hook up to anything and …

I know some of you use them on your cart, so maybe you found something. I'm looking for something like a Pelican case for a full sized iPad when I throw it in (soft) luggage for travel. I don't mean an Otterbox, because I want to protect the screen. I have the Apple magic cover thing and a rubber/silicon-like bottom cover. Despite Pelican's site saying their case works with those, all the reviews say otherwise. Sound like I could buy a Pelican and immediately cut up the innards, but if there is a better option, I would love to hear. When I fly I *usually* take it with me on the plane, but often we pile luggage and equipment in the back of a cargo van, and that's wher…

Thought you guys would have a suggestion. I play music through the aux channel/headphone out of my iphone. While playing with various car chargers I always get a pretty noise ground loop (not sure what to call when a car is involved). I drive a newer car so don't think it's crappy power. I assume most non audio people don't hear it. Any recommendations?

OK, so I know I read somewhere that there is a difference, but I don't remember what it is. I just put a USB plug into my soundcart and it can charge most things with a USB connection, except my Iphone. What's different about the Iphone USB connection ? Anyone know if it would be the same with the Iphone 4S ?

Prominent British international business newspaper Financial Times today announced that it has selected Apple CEO Steve Jobs as its "Person of the Year" for 2010, marking yet another accolade for the company and its leader that have seen remarkable success over the last decade. A rebuttal of F. Scott Fitzgerald's much-quoted aphorism that there are no second acts in American life does not come more decisively than this. When Steven Paul Jobs first hit the headlines, he was younger even than Mark Zuckerberg is now. Long before it was cool to be a nerd, his formative role in popularising the personal computer, and Apple's initial public offering on Wall Street - which ca…

How iOS 7 Will Spark a Boom in App Design BY KYLE VANHEMERT09.23.136:30 AM If you want to see the future of apps, look to Apple’s new stock apps. Photo: Ariel Zambelich / WIRED You probably feel strongly about iOS 7. Maybe you love it. Maybe you hate it. Maybe you just can’t get over that Safari icon (what were they thinking!?). But change is polarizing, and this is a fairly big change, so the general freak-out is understandable. Soon enough, though, you’ll get used to it, and iOS 6 will be the one that looks weird. But the shake-up won’t end this week. Apple’s new OS isn’t just a wham-bam makeover–at least, it isn’t only that. In months and even years to come, iO…
