'The Train Job'
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!
Music isn't so much an issue for me, except in instances when I just have to cut out the first thirty seconds of a Telepopmusik song cuz it's annoying me to tears, or if I happen to be vidding, and the song I want to use won't load into my editor, burned to a CD or not doing things I really shouldn't be doing with my music.
But I still haven't found a workaround for iTunes video.
Bleargh. Not good week on many fronts. Tech too. I can't run Repair Disk on my Macintosh HD. The underlying task reported failure on exit.
Will fsck do anything for me that Disk Utility can't? How can I tell if this is hardware-related (ie don't buy Leopard and start from scratch)?
Any recommendations on cheap/free software to rip DVDs so I can watch my movies on my pretty new Nano? I'm on a MacBook Pro.
Handbrake.

Wouldn't hurt to try. At least it will give more verbose error messages.

Look in /var/log/messages, (or use the Console.app utility), and see if there have been disk errors that have been logged.

Wow. Middle of the night x-post.
After Making a mini maglight into a working laser, what do you do for an encore?
Make a Star Trek Phaser prop into a Blu-ray-powered laser, of course.
Thanks guys!

I figured that would happen.
