    Digital audio formats / iTunes help (pleeze)

    Thanks, Thomas. I've since learned how incredibly inadequate 64k is. I've got lots of reloading to do.

    Digital audio formats / iTunes help (pleeze)

    I think I know the answer, but I'm going to ask anyway. I have around 6000 digital songs, probably >80% that were copied from CDs I own (the others, mostly iTunes downloads). Previously, I used digital music only on my iPod, almost exclusively when working out. Therefore, I didn't much care...

    Help me with mouse problem, please

    Well, I uninstalled, then re-installed the mouse. Seems to be working OK for now. Thanks for the replies.

    Help me with mouse problem, please

    I recently did a full install of Windows 7. All is well, except the center scroll wheel on my Bluetooth mouse no longer works. Previously, turning the wheel would scroll the page up or down. I've looked at the mouse settings within control panel, but can't find anything that addresses the...

    The Lightroom 3 beta 1 was meh but beta 2 is AWESOME SAUCE

    Sam and Scott - When I heard CS5 was looming, I said, naw, I'm totally happy with CS4. Then I ran across that same video demonstrating Content-Aware fill. Damn! I gotta get me some of that! (still not sold that I need LR3, though)

    Question about fonts

    I am soon going to do a full-install of Windows 7. I have several fonts installed within my Windows Vista that I'd like to move onto an always-connected external drive where they can live forever. So, anticipating this, I've already copied them to drive L (they're currently on both C and L)...

    24: Season Eight

    Does anyone else have wide, w-i-d-e swings of opinion as to where Renee resides on the Hot-O-Meter? Cleaned up, she can look exceedingly attractive. But she can really ugly herself up right quick. She gets that greasy, stringy-hair thing going, scrunches up her hyper-freckled, pig-nosed face...

    Lost: Season Six

    Did anyone else besides me get the sense that Jack, while on the alternate-reality flight, retained at least some memory of everything that had occurred on the island? He seemed to glance at each of his fellow castaways with a curious / knowing look ("there's Kate, and she doesn't even know...

    The Demise of VHS

    Scott - You've just inspired me to seek out a copy of this. I remember viewing it many years ago and loving it.

    Cannot print from laptop since installing Windows 7 (except from one user account)

    Nope. The wizard notes that I have Windows 7 and directs me to the troubleshooter within 7. Once there, it sees that I have no printer installed, and directs me to 'install new printer', which, of course, tells me that I cannot connect to the printer. We're both admins. Far as I can tell, our...

    Cannot print from laptop since installing Windows 7 (except from one user account)

    Thanks, Joe, but it didn't work. I uninstalled it from within her account, but when I tried to install it, I got a message saying that I could not connect with that printer. So now, it's not even installed. (still works from my account, though) Jon

    USB to the desktop. Never had a problem printing from the laptop when it had Vista, same connection then as now.

    Cannot print from laptop since installing Windows 7 (except from one user account)

    This has me pulling my hair out, I hope someone here can assist. Two PCs, one desktop, one laptop. Installed Windows 7 on laptop, left desktop with Vista. Since then, I can print from the laptop from within only my account; I cannot print from the wife's user account. I've made sure the...

    It's a Pink Whale

    Another thought is to rent a lens for a day or two (whether sports or Yellowstone). Haven't done this myself...I think I'd be swayed too much to spring for a nice lens once I've used it. Crap, my longest lens is my Nikkor 18-70mm f/3.5 - 4.5. /img/vbsmilies/htf/laugh.gif Also tote a Nikkor...

    It's a Pink Whale

    Scott, Hey, you're gonna burn through a whole roll of film with that continuous shooting. /img/vbsmilies/htf/laugh.gif Nice job on the white balance; did you have it set to auto? Also, which Nikon body do you have? What the heck, gimme your whole equipment list. Yeah, you really have to have...
