E911 on GSM phones is handled by triangulation at the towers. GPS is not a component common to most GSM phones and certainly not a part of the standard (E911 wouldn't work with older or imported phones if they relied upon GPS.)
I think GPS is, IIRC, built into IS-95 ("CDMA") in some form, as phones have to have some idea of where they are for the system to work (GSM is more "I can hear a tower, I'll talk to that. Ooops! It's complaining I'm too loud, I'll lower my power level", that kind of thing. Very laid back and easy going. Nice.)
Actually I have 3 T-Mobile phones, each has GPS for use in E-911. Its a new federally mandated requirement.

Haha, I totally agree bella, I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss something!

By "Sorry" I mean the SF 49ers are going to win the 2012 Superbowl, the iPhone price is dropping $200 tomorrow, and tonight's winning powerball lotto numbers are 3-5-17-1-28-49, and the iPhone 5 has already been jailbroken, hehe

One of the other rumor sites (AppleInsider I think) is speculating that there is a secret announcement to be made today by Steve at the Final Cut Pro meeting.

I don't know if it's MR or not. The admins need the URL and a screenshot. If it is from MR, the admins can contact the ad service and have it removed.
From the FAQ: What do I do about annoying ads (http://guides.macrumors.com/Help:MacRumors_FAQ#What_do_I_do_about_annoying_ads.3F).
it was on the page right below the sony camera article. but i haven't seen it since so its fine. but if i do see it i will take a screenshot and send it to the admins.

Yojiirill needs to check out Pinkerton.
Raditude is fun though.
Agreed!
Pinkerton is one of my favorite albums of the '90s!

As no other computers will need to be on the network, I assume it is as simple as plugging the two computers together with an Ethernet cable and making sure they can see each other. The hard part is making sure they always use this network and not the company network.
OS X automatically prioritises the faster connection, hence will use your GbE connection by default if you transfer files between these two machines only.

I downloaded the trial of appzapper thinking that I'd actually try to keep my new macbook pro clean and get rid of the "hidden" files associated with other applications.
AppZapper, AppCleaner, CleanApp, TrashMe, and similar apps do not do a thorough job of removing all files/folders related to deleted apps. I tested several of these, using Skype as the app to be removed. Of 17 items to be removed:
AppZapper missed 13 items
AppCleaner missed 11 items
AppDelete missed 8 items
Hazel missed 9 items
I also tested AppTrap, CleanMyMac and a few others, but don't recall how many items they missed. All left files/folders behind. In most cases, they remove .plist files and a few others, but leave behind much larger files and folders. (you will find a discussion of these tests in the thread linked below)
One app that I would not recommend, based on the number of complaints that have been posted in this forum and elsewhere, is CleanMyMac. As an example: CleanMyMac cleaned too much (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=709930)
The only effective method for complete app removal is manual deletion:

Now, when I try to open pdfs in Safari (to just view in the browser, and not download them), a dialog box opens asking me where adobe reader is because safari can't read the pdf. I can only download the pdf.

For a new Mac owner, it's nothing to worry about. It's not completely normal, but you shouldn't worry about playing with your new iMac.
However, if this continues on, it may not be healthy for you nor your iMac. If you find yourself staying home from work next week just to play with your iMac and Expose, then you've got problems. In that case, I recommend going to AA (if you're in the US) to try to let go, and just use it as a computer. Cold turkey is definitely not the answer, especially with your Mac. Instead, just ease up on the use, and use those functions like Expose when you need them.
Which should just be about every day of your life. ;) :D

I went to the Apple Store today to get my iPhone 4 replaced due to a yellow screen issue. I showed it to a employee at the Genius Bar. I had a password set and forgot to unlock it for her. The lady didn't ask me for my password, she just simply typed in a 4 digit number. The number went "95??" I didn't see the last two digits. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Anyone want to try and figure out what the passcode is

Well, I don't have a removal story to relate, but I do have a large (probably about 4 inches long by 1 inch wide) black tattoo on my ankle that I desperately want to rid myself of. I definitely plan to have it removed at some point in my life, but I simply can't afford it right now. I'm hoping the treatments will become less expensive and more effective in the future.
So, jywv8, your story leads me to believe that my worst fears are true.... that tattoo removal is ultra-expensive and takes a long time. Is it painful too?
Anyway, good luck with the whole thing. I checked out a couple of sites on laser removal, and it honestly made me jealous to see those tattoos disappear like that! I'd give anything to just make mine go away!! Isn't it funny how stupid decisions you make when you're 17 can affect you the rest of your life?? :)

I know it is an old way of doing it but it works effectively for me
I go to www.amazon.com and select music, then search by song or artist and it will pop up the artwork, simply save it to your iTunes Artwork and add it to your music.
The one thing I absolutely can not stand is music in my itunes with no artwork, it drives me insane.

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.

Hello! I am trying desperately to unlock my iPhone 4 running iOS 4.2.1 and baseband 03.10.01.
From what I am reading extensively online, it is my understanding that in the state of software versions I am in, I am kind of stuck in a rut! I am reading of other people upgrading software and baseband versions. I am nervous to try to proceed on my own as I understand that upgrading software/basebands are usually a one-way trip.
Is there anyone that can provide me with a solution to unlock my jailbroken iPhone 4? Should I upgrade to 4.3.2? Will that upgrade my baseband to an unlockable baseband like 06.15.00? (Is 06.15.00 even an unlockable baseband?) Please help!
Seriously appreciate anyone's advice on this.

Bad in that the stuff that is encouraging people to move over is the angry bird type games and that it appears to make the more in depth stuff isn't as profitable. So in the long run we may not see as many games come out that are profitable.
Well, when you have people complaining about the price of 2 euro games, then you know the market is just a rush to the bottom. Simple games that can be quickly and cheaply made; with very little depth. I prefer longer, more involved gameplay too, but who's going to make those games with the price point so low?
Already it is sad when you look at the console market a lot of games are just games based on popular movies and not much innovation (cause the games based on the movies make the money and stuff like Okami and more innovative stuff gets ignored). I remember when I was reading an article complaining about how that was the trend in games (it happened to movies too once blockbusters came out. Movie studios were more interested in making blockbusters than unique movies, basically finding a formula that worked and sticking with it rather than trying anything different).
I agree, it's the same thing. If you want to make a big game (or movie), you need lots of money. That means you need an investor - whose motivation is making a profit. To make a profit you then have to sell a lot of copies, so the game has to be mainstream. It has to be low-risk, so will stick to conventional, proven game-types. Great for investors, boring and predictable for gamers.

My Ti laptop is driving me crazy. I've got the Finder prefs set to open all windows in column view and yet, every fourth or fifth time I double click on the drive icon on the desktop, the window opens up in icon view. I switch it back to column view and it's fine for a while and then, poof!, it's back in icon view when I double-click the drive icon again.
I use Macaroni to regularly repair permissions and I've experienced no other strangeness, just this.
Any idea what's going on? :confused:

I downloaded some games for my Android phone. Doesn't mean I play them. I'm sorry, but having a controller is a very serious must.
On another note not related to the above comment, I would like to read the comments from those who have never played video games on this site. Since it's something that I've been exposed to for so long, it's interesting to see how ignorant people tend to sound when they speak of things they are not familiar with.
