This is for people familiar with ssds; if you don't quite understand the question, the question is not for you ;p
After setting up my mac just the way I like it, would it be favorable to back up my entire machine, secure erase my ssd using linux, then restore said backup to the drive?
Basically I want my ssd running at top performance. From a logistics point of view, I think it would be "better" to have my system, in it's fully set-up state, copied 'once' to the ssd after a secure erase to ensure peak performance.
Any additional thoughts?

Is there a way to leave the Contacts alone on the phone?
I just got the phone , sync'd it and everything else.
On windows address book, there's no phone numbers.
I went on the phone to "Contacts" and edited everything the way I want it.
Is there a way to make it so next time I sync the phone, the contacts on it stay as they are? I don't want it to sync from the windows address book again Cause I'll probably lose everything I just edited.

Hi elevenpower,
I just a few hours ago set up my D-Link DI-624+ wireless router. I tried to set it up using my PC but nothing worked. Im new to this networking caper so I dont know what im doing.
However I just tried it on my new PB and everything works great. It just set itself up without me having to do anything. The PB just found the router for me and it worked - just liek that! So im quite impressed with D-link at the moment (i hope it lasts). Not only does it work for my PB but also my PC. So my advice is to set up your router using your mac rather than a PC.
I have read on these boards that Linksys ones seem hard to install.
This very second im connected to the net writing this message while watching The Bill on the television. Ive got 3 bars reception. I get pretty good reception throughout my house - which is a 1920s federation with thick brick walls (some double brick). I stuck the router in my Kitchen between my study (where my PC is) and my bedroom and lounge room - that way I get much greater coverage. No dropouts as yet!
D-link stuff isnt that expensive either. Im also using a wireless PCI card (DWL-G520+) on my PC to connect to the router which works well too. Better reception than the Aiport card in my PB.
One caveat: D-link tech support is crap. They are a bunch of patrionising bastards! Well in Australia they are.
Hope you find a solution.

Since the regular MB is 13", I'd just get the 13" MBP. Microcenter supposedly has a deal for $999.

I just put a max (1 gig) ram upgrade in my computer from Viking (Viking Part Number: MPG4/1GBDS) and I was looking around at some other posts here and was wondering if you all thought this was a good choice? Now I am wondering due to some of the other posts on this board. Its for the ibook in my sig. Thanks. :D
Kinda impossible to tell from here, but...
Did the vendor guarantee compatibility with your Model Mac? Does it have a lifetime manufacturer's warranty? Does it work in your machine? If so, don't worry, be happy.

Hey all. I can't believe what just happened over my Thanksgiving break! My employer offered me an upper level marketing position for the marketing company I worked for as an intern for years. :) What does this have to do with a feeler thread you ask haha. Plain and simple, the company is giving me a nice Dell Latitude loaded with Adobe Creative Suite CS2 and QuarkXPress 6.1! Yeah, its windows I know, but its worth it for a free computer with all that software. I really should sell my PowerMac that I just got not more than a few weeks ago (used) since it really won't be used much at this point. I was thinking it would be worth somewhere in the $1,600 range plus shipping (with the upgraded graphics and remaining Applecare). I have had some really lowball offers but I know how much this system is worth the that price is pretty solid. PM me with any offers. It has the following specs
PowerMac G5 Dual 1.8 (900MHz FSB)
768MB DDR RAM
Radeon 9800 Pro 256MB Graphics Card
8x Superdrive
80GB Serial ATA Internal HD
120GB External Segate 7,200RPM HD
Mac OS X 10.3.9 Panther (Tiger makes it chirp in WoW)
Applecare till June 2007
Office 2004 ONLY if you are a current student
Apple Pro White Keyboard (keyboard is only a few weeks old)
Apple Pro White Mouse (came with computer but hardly used)
NOW ON EBAY - Click here and bid (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5837350366&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1) :) Auction ends December 8th so bid now! :)
It will include the original box, ALL paperwork for applecare, and all software discs. If you are interested make me an offer. No trades please. I can now finally accept paypal as well to speed up the purchase process for anyone interested. Thanks all!
Oh and the mac is in MINT condition and runs just great. I can post pics when I get home.

That is highly inaccurate for a number of reasons. Generally "leaked" release dates are very inaccurate until it's within two weeks of release. Given that it has only been a couple months since the newest ones came out, waiting is pretty well pointless.

Sorry, dude. I can't comment on value for money in Canadian dollars...!
And I've never heard of 'resolution independence', I'm afraid. I haven't really had my ear to the ground, over Lion.
No problem. About Canadian dollars, it's worth more then the US dollar finally (1.03 US)! If you're from the Eurozone, I'm clueless myself (I think most Apple goods are expensive overseas anyways so converting values might be pointless) :p
1CAD = 1.04USD ($1269 = $1,315.30 US)
1CAD = 0.63GPB ($1269 = �801)
1CAD = 0.71EUR ($1269 = �902)

Based on personal experience, it's reliable (as in, I've never lost a file). I've even reformatted my Mac and restored it perfectly with a Time Machine backup. It's really only a pain when you make changes to a file quite often (in that you have to search through several different versions to find the one you want).
As you've said, you've got an offsite backup. Which means you've essentially got three copies of your system around (the mac, the time machine backup, the offsite backup). That's about as safe a system as you can ask for.

Hi folks,
I'm in a market for an iPad 2, but I'm in a dilemma of whether I should keep my iPod touch 32GB and get an iPad 2 16GB 3G, or should go all out for a 64GB 3G and let go of my iPod.
I'm a person who loves to store everything I have on a mobile device, hence 64GB, yet I still prefer the mobility of the iPod touch. Though the inconvenience is that the iPod does not support 3G, and Wi-Fi is hard to come by when I'm traveling.
My music on my iPod occupies around 24GB and there's barely enough space for my photos. I was thinking of an iPad to store my photos instead, and I would appreciate having photos and Accordance Bible Software on the real screen estate of the iPad.
Prior to this I'm lugging around a 15" MBP for all my stuff, and frankly it's kinda cumbersome carrying a laptop to church.
Any advice would be appreciated.

How in the world did this happen?
I was trying to send to trash the final clips of an event and then imoive crashed. when I started it up again there were no longer any clips at all in the events folder.
In the imovie video cache however are lots of files, including a quicktime file that plays the full event, but with no sound.
How can I put this movie back together again in imovie? help!!

Hi all,
i have a problem with disabled attachments in outlook e.g.
i have received email 12.4.2011 with word document attached, and i was able to see and open that attachment.
Today i wonted to open that document, in the inbox where is the list of all emails, that email is has attachment icon, but when i open email i can't see attachment anywhere. If i forward that email to e.g. some other person, he will receive email with attachment??? So attachment is there, do you have an idea how to enable it.
Thanks,
James

Do you have SHSH blobs stored for 4.2.1? If so you can upgrade to 4.2.1, if not then no. Your only option is 4.3.1, and have you saved SHSH blobs for this version?
