I need to get my new MBP asap... although I think I might wait til the new models come out.

It would be a nice feeling to be able to order a new one as soon as they are released

.

Sold my Mac a few weeks ago and its definitely killing me being without one. I could easily purchase a PC for half the price.... but I know I will hate it....so I'll wait til I can get a new MBP

there are 2 "us customers" link...one is for if you bought online (on the left column) and one is on the right if you bought from theapple store (on the right column)
that brings you do enter your apple account, afterwards it asks for your serial number and other information accordingly

i just tried both and wasnt brought to a "items in your cart" page, maybe because you logged in first before clicking?

Fluid tunes is ok

. More of a "show off", typeapplication. Would be really beneficial if the developer found a way to calibrate it to be more precise. Amazing none the less.

 

[syxth element]

I was wondering if making your own Iphone ringtones through itunes works still?


Here's what I did:
1)clipped a song to 30 sec.
2)converted to aac
3)deleted it from itunes and renamed the ext from m4a to m4r
4)re-added it back to itunes.

Now I see it under ringtones in itunes, but when i go to settings > sounds > ringtones I can't find it.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
