So I have been having problems with my MBP the past couple of days. It takes about 3min to open an app and I can’t play any songs in iTunes because the song keeps stopping and loading. So basically my computer is unusable. I decided to buy a LaCie 1TB external HD in the hope to save all of the precious files on my computer and I just got it in the mail this morning. I hooked it up and started running Time Machine for a full back up. Just as I expected it is extremely slow so slow that after 2 hours it has only copied 401.1MB out of 228.87GB. Just to be clear I have a 250GB hard drive and 2GB of Ram in my MBP with a little over 3GB of space left. What can I do to speed up the process. My plan was to back up my entire HD and then try and save my laptop by restoring it.
I would appreciate any help you guys could give me.
Thanks.

my control key seems to be shot,

anyone know a way that i can make another key on my keypad to work universally for all programs AS control?

work on a PC. Unfortunately we can not all be blessed with a mac. But i recently purchased the LaCie rugged external hard drive…and it works perfectly with my mac…and anyone elses mac. But..say if I try to put it into my girlfriends laptop or my bud’s PC…nothing will show up. It will say that something has showed up and is installing the drive or whatever….but nothing will show up..

if you could help…it would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I’ve been on here quite a while, but I’m looking for the most elusive animal ever. That’s right, I’m seeking a reliable, affordable, proficient PHP developer. Does this animal exist? Have you seen one? Can you point me in the right direction?

My preference is someone local to me, or at least in the US, but quality is much more important to me, as is reliability, and speed. We’re quoting new projects every day, and we need someone we can rely on. I’d prefer someone I could partner with, and build a business.

Main focus will be ecommerce and development for the Pinnacle Cart shopping cart system.

Please let me know if you are aware of this animal and if they are available for consistent work.

I set the preferences to use the function keys as standard function keys, with the ability to press control+f5 to go to the address bar in safar. It worked for a bit, but not now. It just highlights the back button (the arrown at the top left of the screen). What am I missing?
