  Thank God for the new Apple Updates!

They addresses everything I'd hoped for:

"This update improves overall stability and addresses a number of other
minor issues. It is recommended for all users of [INSERT PROGRAM NAME
HERE].

That's what I've been yearning for from iWeb, iTunes, iLife, iWork,
I-and-I and I-for-an-I.

And it's here, thank Jesus, it's here!

  Scan an album cover

Is there a cheap way to scan a laserdisc cover and shrink it to fit on
a DvD container? My scanner isn't as big as a laserdisc cover.

  DVD Write Error with Toast 8.0         


Author: Gerry
Date: Jul 22, 2008 09:44

I'm making backup copies of some of my favorite DVDs and have run into a
problem that I would like to solve.

First I rip the original DVD to my hard disk, then I burn a DVD in my
external LaCie CD/DVD burner. With larger size DVDs I get the process
where the ripped file is going through Compressing and Extracting, and
finally the burning process begins, at 10%% completion and it is always
10%% I get the following error message;

Sense Key = Medium Error
Sense Code = OxOC [not sure if these are the letter 'O' or the number
'0']
Write Error

The burn process stops and the incomplete disk is ejected. This has been
happening recently the drive did make complete DVDs in the past.

I can burn the same ripped file to my internal CD/DVD burner on my G4
PowerBook without any problems at all. If the ripped DVD file is not so
large that it needs Compressing and Extracting, the external drive can
complete burning a DVD.

Can anyone explain why I'm having the problem and if there is any
solution?

  Merlin vs. OmniPlan         


Author: Steve
Date: Jul 22, 2008 08:04

I may be needing to do some project planning at home under OS X and
was looking at OmniPlan and Merlin as the two most likely candidate
apps. The main requirement is that the application export to MS
Project format as this is a work project and needs to be sent back to
Windows-only environment.

I just wondered if anyone has used the two application in depth (and
in the real world) and can comment on the strength and weaknesses of
the two relative to one another. To me OmniPlan looks great and easy
to use where Merlin looks more like an 'industrial strength'
application. I don't really need to use heavy duty features as these
will all be added after the file has been converted to project format.

  Adding to BBEdit contextual menu

Anyone know how you can add a "view in separate window" to the
contextual menu that comes up with mouse on text window and control
click? Saving having to go to View menu? Have either forgotten or never
knew or it is not easily possible.

  iTunes playlist generation for Albums         


Author: John Holt
Date: Jul 21, 2008 18:16

I would like to to have something like a smart playlist, except that I
would like it based upon albums instead of tracks. I can populate a
list for a random selection of tracks, but most of my music is in
albums where it makes more sense (to me) to play the album in the
correct order.

I can get a rotation with Smart Playlists by telling Smart Playlists to
select by album and only include tracks that have not been played for a
month.

I have not seen anything in either the Automator or the Apple Script
interfaces for iTunes that would let me enumerate albums and randomly
select some of hem.

What I am left with is the approach of exporting an XML version of the
library, and writing a program to: 1) perform the selection and write
an XML file; and 2) cause iTunes to import the XML as a playlist.

Does anyone know of a more enlightened approach?

  Address Book just hangs         


Author: John Chambers
Date: Jul 21, 2008 16:39

For a while now, when I start Address Book on my Powerbook (10.4.11),
it has hung during startup. Its window never appears. When I use the
Activity Monitor, and click on the Sample thingy for Address Book, it
shows me a stack of function calls that ends with:

...
290 -[ABUIController setupAsPeoplePicker:]
290 +[ABAddressBook sharedAddressBook]
290 +[ABAddressBook nts_CreateSharedAddressBook]
290 +[ABAddressBook nts_SharedAddressBook]
290 -[ABAddressBook nts_InitDefaultContactManager]
290 ABAcquireFileLock
290 __ABNewAcquireFileLock
290 open
290 open

This seems to be saying that it has hit a deadlock of some sort, though
of course I have no idea what any but those last two calls really do, so
I'm just guessing.

Searching through this list's archive doesn't seem to turn up anything,
and googling for obvious combinations of keywords is uninformative.
