I posted this on the Have a Question thread in Gen Chat, but does anyone know of a preferably free keylogger available for Mac? I've so far tried Aobo (only logs certain characters for some strange reason) and Keyboard Spy (which doesn't work for me). I thought I'd give Refog a go but then I learned it doesn't save passwords. (Ahem.. )

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Since we are on the subject of iPad's, does anyone have or know of a program to transfer music and videos from an iPad to a computer? My iPad is jailbroken,and Sharepod won't work.

Have you tried this? http://www.ipad-to-pc.com/guides/copy-song...pad-to-pc.html

[Ronnyboy]

Found some free software on their site! Thanks man

iExplorer is my go-to, Ronnyboy. Give it a shot too.

Apple made the local news report today, however, here's AOL news bar about the same;

How come the fans are still inaudible at those temps? Should I be worried or not? I'm converting 1080i mkv to mp4 through handbrake so the CPU has been at 100% for quite a while now and there's still lots to convert.

Kinda peeved that iDVD was discontinued. So could anyone recommend a good DVD authoring package? I'm working with FCP X and the one that's included is super basic and iffy while playing on PC's. Thnaks!

This should help: http://alternativeto.net/software/idvd/

According to this there is a way to get Apple to send you a free copy of iDVD.
Cliff notes: Go here http://www.apple.com/feedback/idvd.html and ask for a copy. Alternatively you can get an older version of iLife 11 for $41 on Amazon which has it included (also has iWeb which was also discontinued).

Hey thanks guys

Let you know how it turns out!

[Otter]

Toast is a fantastic alternative.

For more control, try to get a copy of Dvd studio Pro. And of course, there's adobe Encore.

I dont understand, though, why you say discs created with the included app with fcx are "iffy" on PCs - that makes absolutely no sense to me.

[matthew1g]

anyone have any idea why I keep getting this in terminal?

[vertical limit]

You guys have to get this app. English TV Premuim. Its on sale and the number 1 in Top Charts. Only £0.69.

Um hey guys, just popping in for a random question (posting this question in the random question topic too, but thought this could also help.) Not strictly about the Mac OSX itself but more so of a suitable application for my need.

I'm really interested in creating music, it all started with a little compilation then another then another - eventually that got me into rap compilations and singing/songwriting. I always like electronic music too so I it's only logical I do something like that. I don't have experience playing instruments but hey I might give some MiDi keyboard stuff a go, but nevertheless mind the 'origin' tangent. I've heard the 'most' used program is FL Studio, however that is a Windows only program, but I had downloaded and played around with the trial demo via Crossover and actually worked well. All the things were working correctly (I just had some issues with Crossover not working with other Windows applications) so I figured it's the application worth to buy and learn. My question is though are there any other programs Mac compatible of that type of caliber i.e high usage, lots of tutorials available .etc

I've read that Ableton Live is good (thought the interface was not as easy to work with for me), Reason, REAPER and Logic Express/Studio and a couple others listed here: http://alternativeto.net/software/fl-studio/

Should I bother with these other programs? Or since FL Studio worked fine via Crossover I should just buy and learn that.

CBS news reported on the iPad and iPhone sales figures, how Apple has effectively DOUBLED it's profits in a year's time and right now, the Biggest Global company on the planet in terms of how well and successful they've been. Congrats to Apple folks

Also, as my sig currently testifies, thanks to John Sculley, Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs for their work making it all happen

More Apple news, stunning the WORLD!, Woz says his fav phone is not iPhone?!?!

finally someone did windowed apps on the iPad. It's a jailbreak app called quasar. Just bought it and I'm freaking loving it. This is so much better for taking notes at school!

I recommend Traktor Pro 2, it's quite simple tu understand yet very effective. It's what I use, does wonders.

Holy sh*t, Matthew, that's rad. I think that's what's going to push me to buy the new iPad.

@ Benjimino: look into Reason.


Now, ladies and gentlemen... who here is chomping at the bit for the new Macbook? Rumors are a thinner lighter design (no optical drive) and a 220ppi display. Longer battery times, faster, cooler Ivy bridge quad core, NVidia graphics. Should be able to run the f*ck out of minecraft.

But, no, seriously, this is gonna be a wicked little machine. Can't wait.
