so after i migrated my computer with my familys imac, they are always getting a popup of a program saying that the internet connection failed. but they are online and its running in the background cuz there is no toolbar up top or no icon when i command/tab.

what i think is one of the programs that i migrated, or updated to my settings on their computer, kept its settings so its trying to use my internet connections. i think. does anyone know how to find out whats running or can think of any solution?

Wow, Mac users. I've been in the creative field for over a decade. All I use now (except a brief, very destitute period in college using Win 3.1).

I hope you guys have emailed Hondata about getting a Mac + Bluetooth Hondata nateively!!! (Although Parallels/Boot Camp works pretty flawlessly, and very easily with external devices).

That would be hot.

This is very helpful, thanks! Someone I know is considering an imac in the near future, and I'm looking down the road at a new MBP... so I'll be watching this page.

HkyGrL2 · 09-02-2008, 01:34 AM

I need a new laptop damnit. Anyone have the inside scoop on when the new Macbook Pro's will be coming out?
Rumors say Sept?

shadedream · 09-02-2008, 03:23 PM

I'd wait if you can right now... the Macbook lines (aside from the Air) havent been update in QUITE a while besides speed bumps. There's likely something in the pipe, but when... who knows. Probably very soon after you give in and buy one (seems to always work out that way LOL). I'd just keep an eye on the rumor sites and try to hold out a while longer.

***Special Ringpop*** · 09-03-2008, 01:28 AM

Have to bring my MacBook back to Apple again.

The bottom of the case by the vent is cracking again and the palm rest area isn't flush anymore, and it has risen.

Two months ago, had to get the palm rest replaced because they were cracking (yes, cracking) and I don't even rest my palms on them, the bottom vent area plastic replaced due to cracking (what I have to do again) and the power cord stopped working.

I pray my choice to go Apple wasn't as doomed as my choice to go Honda. I love my MacBook, just as I do my Civic Si, but this isn't turning out to look good. The computer is less than a year old, and has never left it's case or a flat, level, clean surface.

How sad

Thats a shame man, I'd like to think its just that one, I have 2 macbooks in the household, and before that a G4 and G3 laptop, and no issues, G3 died hard years later (3/4), but I bought it used so u know...
