Thx in advance.
 
i had a quick question for yall and i hope someone can help me out with this...

i updated to snow leopard last night and firefox is now distorting Arabic words so it becomes difficult for me to read like this:



this is the best screen shot i can get but it gets a lot worse to the point where its unreadable. i have the newest version of firefox and it worked perfectlybefore the update.

now i would use Safari but it displays Arabic in a font type i don't like:



so i guess my question is does anyone know how i can either fix firefox to work properly or change the font on Safari to look like the one thats on Firefox?
 
Any word on the release of the Blackberry "Desktop" Manager for our Macs? I heard September, just wondering if it was still coming this month. Thanxguys
 
Okay....this has been on my mind for a while so i guess I'll just post it in here since this is the official Mac Thread.

Anyone on here have Apple TV? I am super interested in getting one due to the fact that I like ripping DVDs to mpeg4s to put on my Itunes and I am about to geta new LCDTV this weekend. I've talked to a few people about it and all of them say not to get it cause it is a waste of money. Since money isn't atotal issue for this and I really like the interface and the fact that it all runs wireless, are there any other issues or pros or cons that I should beworried about? Thanks.

senuti- less than 1000 songs is for the trial. It is less than $20 for the rest though.

There should be 4 buttons on the bottom left corner of iTunes. Click on the 4th one.

I downloaded Transmission for my torrents but when I put torrents in it just sits there. Am I doing something wrong? It shows the status and everything but it doesnt go anywhere. I know its not my connection bc it works if I use Frostwire. Any suggestions?
Whenever I put torrents in mine it crashes and I have to force quit it...I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong with it.

Ive noticed that Transmission take a looooong time for it to start its downloads. like a good 5 minutes atleast. The first time i used it, i almost canceledthe download, but luckily it started up right before i was bout to click cancel. So try waiting for 5 minutes or so, if it doesnt start, then i dunno whatswrong. The file i was downloading had like 300 seeders too...
 
Finally decided to stop being lazy and try out some of the apps that have been talked about in here and this is what I came up with
