I used my US-bought adapter in the UK. Like Jess said, it listed the voltage on the plug.
Take me, sir. Take me hard.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I use my US adapter all the time here, without a voltage converter or any problems. Just the plug converter and directly into the wall.

OK, so I have my new computer, and I had most all my pictures and music backed up, but two questions:
1) How do I deauthorize the old computer from iTunes? I authorized this one, and it's all "now you've authorized two of your five!" and the only "deauthorize" option seems to be deauthorizing *this* computer, which I don't want.
2) I backed up most of my music, but not the last few songs I've got on my iPod--anyone have a good "steal songs off ipod and put on mac" application?

All is well that ends in pizza.

From someone on a macrumors forum:
You can go to your account preferences in the Music Store.
To get to this, when you are signed in click on your account name in the top right of iTunes.
it will ask for your PW type it in.
Then you should have to option to de-authorize computers on your account.
Then you can re-authorise the ones you need as you see fit.
I think you might only be able to do this either once a year, or only on a computer that is authorised though.
I also found this [link] to Apples's authorization page.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think you might only be able to do this either once a year, or only on a computer that is authorised though.
I looked into this a while back. I think the way to go (or the way Apple wants you to go) is to just wait until you reach the five-computer limit, and then deauthorize all the computers you're no longer using at once.

You might be able to ask them in the email form at the bottom of the Apple link, maybe they can do it one-on-one.
Worth a try.

Has anyone ever had their Tivo get stuck on the "Almost there..." screen. We had a power outage several hours ago and the Tivo seems to have come back wrong.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've had that happen before, Stephanie. I left it unplugged overnight, and then it worked OK in the morning.

Stephanie, try pulling the plug and letting it cool down for a few minutes. Try the FAQ at www.tivocommunity.com for your next steps....
