'Adult Oriented' Podcasts on iTunes Could PoseProblems for Apple

iPodNN says:

'Apple's emergence as a leader in podcasting may bring it morepublic scrutiny, as one report notes the availability of several'adult-oriented' podcasts on iTunes. Analysts say that theacceptance of amateur podcasts has inherent risks, and while userscan let the company know if they object to certain content (as thecompany provides no specific guidelines), Apple says it tries toreview as many submissions as it can for 'really obvious' adultcontent..'

History of the iPod

Braeburn's Tom Hormby has posted a history of the iPod.

'The iPod, more than any other single product from Apple, haschanged the company and the world. Before its introduction MP3players were the realm of small companies with limited budgets andno content. After the iPod the entire industry has evolved andgrown to the point where the largest computer companies in theworld have major interests in the digital music industry.'

Death Knell for Albums in the Age of theiPod?

The Guardian's Natalie Hanman says:

'British music's biggest hit these days is also its biggestthreat. For while recording industry bosses were heaving a sigh ofrelief last week after music downloads began to turn into a nicelittle earner, they also faced the demise of their biggestmoney-spinner: the album. The reason is that digital music players,such as the iPod, do not respect the album format - that40-minute-plus journey into the mind of your favourite band.

'When you visit Apple's iTunes Music Store, you can buyindividual songs for 79p in minutes. Online stores such as thishave sold 10m tracks so far this year, while sales of CD singleshave fallen by 23%, selling 4.4m between April and June. Digitaldownloads may be saving the single, but what can this one-trackworld do for the long-play album?'

iPod Case Crafted fromPortable Cassette Player

iPod Hacks reports:

'Not all hacks have to be about good looks, really. Such is thecase with the hack that Dave Derwin recently undertook in guttingan old Walkman-style portable AM/FM radio/cassette player andturning it into a hardshell carrying case for his 4G iPod. Seeingthe two units merged is almost an artistic expression of aestheticopposites, really. (The Walkman is pretty ugly.)'

Macworld UK reports:

'Most - but by no means all - US iPod owners are males agedbetween 18 and 28, new research shows.

iPods May Cause 'Musical Hallucinations'

Spymac's Kristie Masuda says:

'As the popularity of the iPod increases, so do studies on howApple's digital music devices are affecting our health.

'The latest of the studies to appear is from a psychiatrist atWhitchurch hospital in Cardiff. According to Dr. Victor Aziz,listening to an iPod could leave you with psychological problems.Aziz is warning those who listen to a lot of music that a continualexposure to music can cause cases of musical hallucination. Thebrain can begin listening to phantom music and a song can 'play'over and over again in one's head.'

Advice

Which iPod Is Right for You?

Playlist's Christopher Breen says:

'In the beginning (OK, in 2001), there was the original5 GB iPod - and we were lucky to have it. But in the past fouryears, Apple has made things a bit more complicated, adding severalnew members to the iPod family. Not too long ago, making aniPod-buying decision boiled down to exactly one factor: whether youhad the money to pay for it.

'Now that Apple offers three versions of its diminutive musicplayer - the iPod shuffle, the iPod mini, and the color iPod(including the iPod U2 Special Edition and most HP-branded models)- at prices ranging from $99 to $400, there's far more to consider.Will a small iPod or a large iPod serve you better? And is thereany advantage to owning Apple's iPod instead of one branded withthe HP logo? I've had my hands on every iPod model Apple hasreleased, so I'm in a unique position to give advice on finding theiPod that'll be the best fit for you.'

Using Your iPod as a Hard Drive

iLounge's Kirk McElhearn says:

'iPods are made for music, right? Well, yes, but your iPod cando a lot more than that: you can also use your iPod as a hard diskto store files, back up your work, or transfer files from onecomputer to another. After all, an iPod is simply a tiny storagedevice with a screen, audio hardware, and a special case. StandardiPods use miniature hard drives, while iPod shuffles use memorychips. Both are as good at storing data as they are at storingmusic.

'Many people - 44% of readers responding to an iLounge survey,in fact - use the iPod as a music and data device, and the reasonsare obvious: it's easy to carry between home and office; you canuse it to back up work-related files during the day, just in caseyou lose your work; and you can use it for storing personal filesas well, if you have enough room after you've filled your iPod withtunes (and possibly pictures).

'Using the iPod as a hard disk begins with one step: change somesettings in iTunes' iPod preferences. After that, it's as simple asdragging files to and from the iPod.'

iPod Stops Responding or Will Not Wakefrom Sleep

An updated Apple Knowledge Base article says:

Reset iPod if it stops responding or will not wake fromsleep.

Software for ps2 cam on a mac download. Dec 04, 2016  Why would he have to cut wires on a USB webcam in order to plug it into a USB-equipped Macintosh? Nemo6699 said: i would like to know if there is a possible way of using my Sony Eyetoy USB camera for my Imac G5 with mac osx. Use the built-in camera on Mac. Many Mac computers and displays have a built-in iSight, FaceTime, or FaceTime HD camera located near the top edge of the screen. The camera automatically turns on when you open an app that can take pictures, record videos, or make video calls. You can decide which apps are allowed to use the camera on your Mac. Aug 05, 2011  I have two PS2 EyeToy cameras that have not been used for a long time. When I tried out some camera security software, I needed an external web cam. Instead of shelling out money to buy a PC web cam, I thought it would be nice to use the EyeToy as a PC web cam. After searching a while for a driver, I was able to find one for Windows 7. With the lack of an actual baseball game on Xbox One, I'm looking to go back 11 years and play the greatest baseball game ever created, MVP Baseball 2005. Now I no longer have a PS2 to play it on, and was wondering the best way I can play PS2 and MVP Baseball 2005 on my Mac. Nov 05, 2011  A very quick video on how to use a PS eye webcam with a mac computer. Please, don't do this unless you are desperate, because as I show you in the video, the colors are WAY off. It should be only.

If either of the following occur, reset your iPod

• iPod has stopped responding and seems to have 'frozen'. None ofthe buttons work, but the display is on.
• Even though it is charged and the Hold switch is not on, iPodwill not wake from sleep no matter which button you press.

FastMac Introduces Longest LastingBattery for G4 iPods

PR: FastMac has announce the addition of Generation 4iPods to its TruePower line of iPod battery upgrades. All TruePowerbatteries utilize patented nanoparticle technology to dramaticallyextend battery life and feature the industry's only 2-yearwarranty. FastMac is now accepting preorders for the Gen 4 batteryupgrade on its website and will be shipping the second week ofAugust. All preorders will receive a free iPod travel charger or afree iPod car charger, at the customer's preference. Upgrades forGen 1, 2, and 3 iPods are available now.

FastMac's TruePower upgrades replace the iPod's originalinternal Lithium-Ion battery with a larger capacity and longerlasting advanced power cell. The upgrade offers 20%-70% morecapacity than the original (depending on iPod model) and up to 7.5times as many charge cycles. This is accomplished through the useof TruePower's patented nanoparticle technology, whichsignificantly slows the degradation of the battery.

'Response to our Gen 1, 2, and 3 battery upgrades has beengreat, but we were really surprised by how many Gen 4 owners wereasking, 'When can I get one?' said Michael Lowdermilk, BusinessDevelopment Manager for FastMac Performance Upgrades. 'We'reworking to expand our product line and we'll be announcing upgradesfor more models soon.'

FastMac's TruePower Technology protects and prevents damage tothe battery's internal lithium crystal matrix caused by powerspikes. These spikes occur when an iPod demands a sudden highcurrent peak, for example to turn on the backlight or load the nextfew songs. Over time they decrease capacity, runtime, and batterylife, eventually rendering the power cell unusable.

Through the use of TruePower Technology, the upgrade is able tosmooth out these power spikes. This protects the battery and leadsto a longer life cycle. Without the TruePower Technology the powercells are left unprotected and would steadily decrease in capacityafter each charge cycle.

By extending the battery's life the FastMac upgrade also helpsthe environment by curbing the depletion of materials used inbattery products and reducing the number of waste batteries inlandfills.

FastMac's TruePower iPod battery upgrades are available for thefollowing models:

• Generation 1 & 2 for $39.95
• Generation 3 for $29.95
• Generation 4 Click Wheel for $29.95.
• Generation 4 U2 Special Edition for $29.95.

All iPod battery upgrades are covered by the industry's only2-year warranty and include a 30 day money back guaranty. Necessarytools and installation instructions are also included.

FastMac also offers an iPod upgrade program for an additional$49.95. Price includes prepaid 3-way shipping, professionalinstallation, and 48-hour turnaround.
