[QUOTE="ace.neerav, post: 690604, member: 60761"] a few more questions... video: i have a lot of avi files (episodes of friends) which i want to play in mac. quicktime said it required a plugin. now i downloaded divx. now for 'certain' files, only video is played and there is no audio. for the others there is video and audio as well. these same files played fine in k-lite media player classic on my toshiba vista laptop. also, there is a movie i have which has been directly copied from a dvd (not ripped) it has .vob files. they played on windows but mac failes to reconize them as known file types. they dont play either with itunes, quicktime, dvd player or divx player. what to do? is there a codec package for mac which would make quiktime play all the movie types properly and also their audio? iphoto: when i rename a pic in iphoto and then drag drop the pic into a folder os desktop, the new dropped file still has the original name! any advice on this... ipreview: what is this software? public folder and shared folder: what is the difference? dashboard: can i have dashboard widgets on my desktop like in vista? download manager: currently i am using speed download but its trial. which free download manager (without spyware or bots) would u recommend? office suite: which works best with macs? does apple has its own? ichat: i was able to setup gtalk on ichat thanks to the inbuilt option for using gtalk however it doesnot show the voice option of gtalk. also, how do i transfer a file via ichat? HOW ON EARTH DO I NETWORK WITH A WINDOWS MACHINE? xp or vista? which version of windows is compatible with mac as a dual boot via boot camp? please link me to a good resource for mac related knowledge [/QUOTE]
