Cool. I love that harbor.

We came in from offshore just south of Savannah at St Catherines Sound
and have been cruising north on the ICW last couple of days. This
enire stretch of coastline is fantastically scenic and a great area
for boating.

I really like that whole area. One of my son's friends Dad let me use
his Hydra-Sports CC for a couple of days in May - I ran around that
whole Charleston Harbor area and had a blast. Then we trailered down
to Beaufort/Paris Island area and he took me for a tour of that whole
area - Morgan's/Ladies Islands and other places.

I can't wait to get further down towards Savannah - I've heard the
inshore fishing is spectacular.

Ok, friend of mine sent me an .avi this morning of a monster striper
he caught off of Martha's yesterday.

Since I upgraded Quicktime to Quicktime Pro and installed iTunes, I
can't open .avi files. The QT player will open, but it doesn't play
the video. I took another .avi with my cellphone camera and it won't
open or play that either - just a blank screen.

It also won't play in Windows Media. It will open, but the video
won't play. However I do get sound.

WTH? This all started with the upgrade and the new version of iTunes
- avi's used to play just fine and dandy in Windows. QT won't play
mov either.

The other issue is that all .jpgs now open in QT. I can't switch it
back to the Wiindows display.

Any ideas on why that happened?

And how to fix it?

Final comment - Microsoft isn't the Devil, it's Apple.

And before anybody says it, I tried the Set Programs and Access
control and that's not changing squat. I change it, it sets itself
right back to what it was.

Find the file in Windows Explorer, right click, choose 'Open With' ,
select
'Choose Program', select the program you want to open the file, then
click
the little box that says to use it all the time.

Thanks.

I got it.

UR most welcome.

My problem is that I can not get Itunes to download to the laptop. Bought
an Ipod Nano for the wife for b'day. and would be nice if I could burn CD's
to the Ipod from the laptop as opposed to just the desktop.

I can give no Ipod advice. I'm your basic transistor radio type guy.

Went to the Apple store and the guy burned me a CD with the files. Manual
that comes with the Ipod is about 8 square inches with very little info.
Asked a young lady at the gym how to turn off the unit. She said the apple
store can help you a lot. She was about 18 and stated she did not
understand most of the features.

Now I feel much better. We have a lady from Belarus staying with us. She's
a chaperone for the 'Children of Chernobyl' program. Today she bought an
Ipod to take home to Belarus, one that holds 20 hours of music or video. We
offered to take her to the movies, but she's seen everything over there.
The CD's are available for about $0.50 each. The quality may not be the
best, but they're definitely cheap.

Hell - I got one of them teeny tiny iPods and I still don't understand
the features.

And there aren't any on it - I'd hate to actually own one more
complicated. Took me a week to figure out how to operate iTunes and
then it screwed up my computer.

F'in Apple.

I have not yet had a problem with my Ipod 30G video nor have I had a problem
knowing how to use it. Same goes with Itunes.

You guys need to stick to 8 tracks and boom boxes. ;-)
