Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
The stereo (and it has a cd player, not a tape deck, so I can't use the adapter) in my new van is a little wonky. Like, it stopped when I went over a bump once. And I don't mean a disc skipped; I mean, the radio stopped playing momentarily. And I don't mean in a moment, I mean for a moment.
Anyway. So I'm thinking about replacing it when I work up the jack, and I think I want to get an Aiwa, because those tend to have 1/8th inch auxiliary jacks, so I could plug my player straight into the system instead of diddling around with transmitters and adapters.
Now, when I've traded up to a car with a CD player, they come out with a better cassette adapter.

Oh, Emily-- I don't suppose you have any of those FM transmitters still around that I could borrow to see if they work?
Not Emily, but, she has one that sometimes work and sometimes doesn't... I'm sure she'd let you borrow it, though.
I'm just wondering, since my radio is newer and spiffier, (My new car likes carrots....) if it would work for me. I have a non-fancy cassette adapter (and a CD player) that I can loan her in its temporary stead.
Does anyone know where in Apple Mail one changes the little icon associated w/ one's account? Mine changed on its own automatically after my recent computer meltdown, and I'd like to change it back.
If you mean in e-mail, you can change your photo/icon in Address Book under the entry with your name.
If you mean the icon associated with your account on the computer, that is in System Preferences/Accounts.
Thank you, Stephanie.
How did you all get so effing smart?
Does anyone know why my TiVo now speaks Spanish to me? I can't make it not give the SAP for Desperate Housewives. I've made sure that my TV can get just the stereo output, and that the TiVo audio settingis on stereo. There don't seem to be any cable box settings that control it (I looked because the TiVo settings suggested it).
This is slightly irritating.
ita, had you ever been able to watch AVI files on your Tivo? After I switched out the hard drive, I tried this feature again, and now I can watch converted AVI files on the Tivo without problems. I'm not sure if it is the new hard drive that has made the difference or if I am doing something differently, but the 2-3 files I've transferred so far work just fine.
