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 insent. If this has become too big a pain for you, I'll understand if you want to forget it. Have you tried sending to yourself using your [redacted]? (On the assumption that the email problem is of more concern to you than giving me advice free in a field you normally charge for.)
(I'll delete the email address in a few, which might also want to do for the [redacted] address.)
I know it's possible to use javascript to create a button, for example, that adds something to favorites in a browser. So in IE, this simulates the user clicking Ctrl+D.
Is it possible to do the same thing to pull up a search box (CTRL-F)? Yes, we have slightly dim clients.
Apparently this is how you do it for Firefox: [link]
Nobody here has an Apple TV, do they? I was going to put a Mini in my living room, but part of what it would be housing would be torrented TV shows. Can I put an Apple TV into that scenario?
I'm also trying to work out how to house the music. I currently have my entire collection on my main PC, and that's where I sync my iPods to. If I had the mini in the living room I could move the library there and sync them there...
Man, could my diamond shoes pinch much tighter?
I got it, TB, and I'm going back and delete my e-mail now. I'll get back with you tomorrow. Right now I'm just back from the dentist and have no brane.
eta: I'm glad to be alerted that there might be a problem with that e-mail. I'm just moaning a little because I'm the one who will have to fix it.
Ah, there was the search term I was missing. "Find in page."

It involves taking the AppleTV apart with a putty knife to get at the drive, but yes: [link]

FrontRow (at least the version that comes in Leopard) lets you remotely access other computers' iTunes libraries. AppleTV can also.
Wow. Thanks, Tom. My choices just got a bit more interesting.
Apple is on the verge of releasing a new AppleTV software revision, so you may want to wait to see how hackable the new version is.

You can do that directly via iTunes as well. That is, if you're in iTunes on the Mini, you can directly view the library on the PC.
