I did a search (although my search may have been less than perfect) and didn't find a thread on this, so here goes...
Twice in the last 10 days my MacPro has locked up while browsing Safari. Fans go full speed and sounds like it's going to fly away. I have to hard shut down and when I do, the power light blinks off and on. No sequence, just off and on. I do a power reset by unplugging the tower for 30 seconds and pressing the power button to clear memory. Startup and all is good. I can't find anything in the logs that indicate a memory issue or possible graphics card problem.
Any suggestions?
P.S. I'm using an early '08 MacPro (2.8 8 core) with a WD SSD boot drive, 8 gigs of RAM and have the ATI Radeon HD 3870. I also ran Rember to test memory and that said everything was good.

Primary Application: Quicktime Player 7, the Finder.
Background: I work for a Visual Effects Studio.
Goal of script: Part of one of our employees jobs is to process "offlines" (basically a bunch of different low quality scene shots organized together as a reference for work that needs to be done) for tv shows that we get and export certain scenes in this offline (the ones we've been payed to work on) as Image Sequences (scene cut into individual frames) so the vfx artist may have a reference.
And with that exporting comes a procedure of creating a specific folder for the offline image sequence and creating the image sequence with the proper parameters (JPEG sequence + Highest quality available)
I wanted to simplify that process with a script.
Example.
Show A sends us a 5:00minute mp4 offline. Shot 01x01 found at 00:10 thru 00:20 in the mp4 needs to be converted into a jpeg image sequance.
the steps that would normally be followed would be
0) Open offline (mp4)
1) set your "i"(in-marker) at 00:10 and your "o"(out-marker) at 00:20
2) Command+C = copy selection you have just made
3) Command +N = New Quicktime then Command + V = paste selection
4) File>Export (now name your shot "01x01-Offline_" (shots are watermarked with name) and create destination folder "01x01-Offline")
then select "Movie to image sequence" from drop down menu, then select "options" and change to JPEG from PNG then selection "Options" in this window and move slider to "best possible" for quality.
5)Click save and you are done.
I'd like to slim that down to.
1) Open Offline and manually set your desired "i" an"o"
2) Run Script
Script basic = I need this script to take the selection i've made and create an image sequence of it.
Script Details= All the shot folders have been automatically created, so the script needs to list the pre-made folder selections from the directory the Offline had been opened from.
This needs to Generate a selection prompt that the user may select the proper shot this is.
From here its easy. You just use the export command in the Apple Script Library with the correct paramaters
Currently I am stuck at finding the proper term for "Copy Selection" as selection is not apart of the dictionary.
Any help is appreciated!

I do agree that I think you have a very good campaign concept of "too easy". Apple could run one ad per iLife app to show just how "too easy" it can be to do something. The only thing this ad (and your other one) is missing is the Apple logo at the end and maybe apple.com/ilife or something like that.
We really have some nice stuff for this contest. It's going to be hard to decide on which one to vote for. :)

I think we will just have to wait and see. This does tie in with the none-touch touch interface, but then again these things develop significantly, so whatever that guy was talking about would be already quite different.
I still think a vPod before Christmas could help divert attention from the Zune, which only has a 4:3 screen (no, really)
But as others have said, the scroll wheel just feels so right.
I'm hoping for this thingy to be an iLife to Go. with photos, music, movies, WiFi, and some basic PDA functions (ical, ichat, mail, addressbook..., iWork?)
It could be a 4th line of iPods, or even a 6th line of Macs

I don't mind being charged for incoming calls for 2 reasons:
1. I've got a shitton of minutes available so I don't actually pay anything out of pocket.
2. I call other people's cell phones quite often. I don't have to pay so it saves me money :D
Even assuming I didn't have minutes and had to actually pay out of pocket for incoming calls, I call other cells enough that it would pretty much even out anyways.

We will see something similar to what happened last Fall? - Apple holding an event in september, then a couple weeks later another invite goes out saying "One More Thing..." like last year. and that event will be mid october or something?
Or are we done for the year?
I sure hope they hold another event. This one (well, the announcements-- I haven't watched the keynote yet) was kind of disappointing. I like the new version of iTunes, which is free, so that's good. The rest of the iPod announcements don't really interest me that much. I have a 40 gig iPod and no access to iTunes TV shows or movies.
Now this iTV thing sounds interesting but I'm not going to get too excited over a product prototype.
Call me crazy, but I would like Apple Computer, Inc. to release a new computer line.

Using the whole page whould be pointless. There's lot of stuff there that's irrelevant to Mac users. We could make one of our own, but keep it a bit simpler and just have a link to Wikipedia for the more technical stuff (for those who is interested).
IMO.
I agree, but is it (appropriate/right/legal) to just copy-paste the relevant material into the guide?

My question is, is it a worthwhile upgrade? or is it just better to leave it with the 2.4ghz and get a better hard drive.
Great question. Unfortunately you don't provide any information that would help us advise you. Since you're asking the question, it probably makes no difference at all.

I am trying to get my printer to work on my powerbook. It is a HP Officejet k60. On the HP site they don't have any drivers for MacOS, but they do have one for Linux. Will the Linux driver work on my Mac? I have tried installing it, and my Linux is a little weak, but when I try to run the make command it tells me I don't have a compiler installed. Now when I had Linux on my PC I rememeber I had to run the setup utility to install all the developer tools. Is this a similar issue? Is there a compiler on the CD that came with my Mac? If not, where can I download one?
Am I going about this in the wrong way? I thought that OSX was supposed to eliminate the need to install drivers and such. Cause my PC can use this printer withouut any drivers at all installed. In fact, HP recommeds that you just let XP do its thing and not install a thing from the CD that came with it cause it was pre-XP drivers. Shouldn't OSX be able to do the same? I mean I can see it in the Print Center, but it says "Driver not installed" right beside it and it won't let me add it.
I'm sorry, this is probly a retarded question, but I have had my Mac for less than a week now. And with school around the corner I kind need this printer working pronto.

Microsoft has announced that it has halted development on a universal version of VirtualPC.
Digg This (http://digg.com/apple/Microsoft_Officially_Kills_Virtual_PC)
I used to use VirtualPC mainly to take screenshots for various Flash tutorials and demos that I created. Then one day I was in a rush and I took all of my screenshots using Safari and boy did people notice. The couldn't believe how much clearer the screens were and then one of my friends came forwarded and pointed out that most screenshots we see are taken from Macs in the first place.
I soon stopped relying on VPC more and more. My IT department upgraded our e-mail servers so that I use either Mail or Entourage to see my e-mail and slowly I stopped using it completely.
Back when the G5's came out, I could upgrade my machine because there was no support for VPC on a G5 (that changed eventually), but the thought of not being able to run VPC on Mac Pro has never crossed my mind.
The need for VPC in the Mac/Intel age is gone and Microsoft is wise to move on.
Perhaps they're doing this because they can now eaisly create and port native Mac OS apps.

Went to BestBuy today and had a sales person tell me not to buy a mini but get an imac........he said the speed was too slow compaired to the imac. Also that by the time I paid for mouse, monitor, keyboard I would have the same about of money invested. Just wanted some opinions?
Thanks
The issue with the iMac vs the mac Mini is that iMac has a more powerful process (Core i5 vs Core 2 Duo), also the imac supports more RAM and has a much more powerful GPU. If you want better raw specs the go iMac. If your computing load is light then you can easily get away with a mini and save some money.
I have a mini server which works great, but it just can't compete on raw GPU horsepower. The sever does fine for chewing through Mathematica computations or playing Unreal Tournament 2004.

Only 1 file to be used on this. Ipad 1 3.2.2 firmware. So, google it and you should be able to get it to your PC.
