Beej, have you updated the default install?
Also, have you created a user account other than admin?

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!

OK, so I have a DVD-burning TiVo. Burned a DVD of ANTM to watch on the plane, but DVDplayer that came with my Powerbook kept freezing. I remember this happening LAST time I tried to play a DVD with it too.
Oddly, playing the DVD using VLC worked fine, though something popped up about an error, when I hit OK, it went ahead and played.
Odds that (a) my TiVo is messed up, (b) the blank DVDs I bought are messed up or (c) my computer is messed up (I swear, I thought having 1.25 gigs of RAM would've fixed this!)

Beej, I don't know if this still works, but for Entourage
Tools>Schedules>Edit Send & Receive All. You can then change it to check as often as you'd like.

An 80 GB iPod takes forever to load.

Let me wipe away your tears with the 20 GBs I don't have.

This is a 50 GB increase for me. Looks like I'm squeezing about 2/3's of my music onto it along with a few videos.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The new iTunes gives more control over what videos get uploaded to an iPod, so I've now gone from less than one GB free to about 3 GB. So maybe I can postpone my 80 GB iPod purchase until the holidays (it could be my x-mas present to myself)....

Daniel, you continue to be my hero. Thanks for always responding, and for bailing me out of my kiddie pool of confusion! Much obliged.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Rage on the ABC just played the new Weird Al video. Absolutely hilarious ... and the song is equally funny.
Donnie Osmond is awesome doing the Numfar dance.
Oh man, I laughed hardest every time he appeared. So fracking cool.
...I totally missed that Seth Green...
Count moonlit and I as others who missed him. If he is in it, it must only be a fleeting glimpse.

I missed Seth Green too, where is he in it?
