Ooo! I just found a shiny!!!! You can add your own ringtones to your iPhone! And it does NOT require a hack. It does NOT void your Apple Warranty. And they have a "try before you buy" ability!

Kinda funny. Here I have a fancy schmancy phone that can play all sorts of high quality sounds, and what do I do? I find my favorite cheesey 8-bit(ish) MID file that has been my ringtone for YEARS and convert it to a AAC so my phone can play it. Once again I have "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" as a ringtone

Argh, I'm so frustrated! I bought this [link] hard drive about a month ago because of serious space issues, and it worked completely fine, so I put like 100 gigs of stuff on there, and now the fucking thing is clicking away and not loading. Can someone point me to a link of self-troubleshooting for hard drives that have done nosedives? I am going to be so pissed if all that data is lost.
mine was doing that and I had to recover 120GB of data through getdataback.
It recovered my entire itunes library. yes, I would have been ass out without it.

I went through an iTunes loss early this year, so I feel for you -- it was a new drive failure, too.
I had all my iTunes music on my Mac Mini, which was set to do an update every night. But now all my music is on my MacBook, and I currently have no automated backup set up. This is making me nervous. Have to get that Time Machine set up....
Time Machine has the coolest interface!
Ha! I now have a Google phone running Android!
OK, an emulator for a phone. But still, I created and ran the "Hello, Android" application. Fun.

Apple really is the master of the user experience.

I put one of my old SCSI Mac Hard drives in my Windows PC and I was trying to get MacDrive to see it. The plan was to share it there and pull old files off to my newer Mac.
I accidentally reformatted the drive. It didn't even warn me that I was going to lose data.
I thought it was asking for a name, but it wanted to put new partitions on the drive.
Nothing has been written to the "new" formatted drives, and the two partitions on it were not changed in size.
In the old days I would have used a utility that unformatted the last partition and restored the MBR.
WTF can I do about this nowadays? I have put it into my G4 with Tiger and yep, clean as a whistle.
I see some recovery tools out there, but I need some suggestions.

That sucks. I think MS has the philosophy of "if it ain't got Windows stuff on it then there's obviously nothing at all on it."
ION, in OS X you can now 'right-click' by putting two fingers on the trackpad and clicking, rather than holding down the ctrl key while clicking (you have to enable this feature). Is this new for Leopard? Or have I been missing this goodness for years?
