here's a software invented by Orbicule tat a application is installed in ur mac, when ur u realize ur mac is stolen, they can trace ur macbook back
n its works anywhere in the world
cost around 49USD per comp
Education discount is applicable for students
and Cheaper price if u purchase multiple licenses for coporate

Really forgot about the laptop...only realize when my car alarm system not functioning properly..park at the zone stulang laut at jb..my wife told me that my bag containing the laptop is missing...

hmm there have been reports in the sun,of a device that can detect laptops i car,i suspect the thieves use this on you.

heard from my frens
they uses a device tats detect electric pulses emitted by electrical devices
how true it is i dunno yet, will provide some info on it later

this kind of device really exists? more info about it pls..

i think should be some magnetic stuff detect your battery ( this is what i heard)

Electric fields

1. An electric field can be present even when a device is switched off.
The higher the current, the greater Electric fields

Electric Fields
The higher the voltage the stronger the field produced. Since the voltage can exist even when no current is flowing, the appliance does not have to be turned on for an electric field to exist in the room surrounding it.

Magnetic fields
Magnetic fields are created only when the electric current flows. Magnetic fields and electric fields then exist together in the room environment. The greater the current the stronger the magnetic field. High voltages are used for the transmission and distribution of electricity whereas relatively low voltages are used in the home. The voltages used by power transmission equipment vary little from day to day, currents through a transmission line vary with power consumption.


Magnetic Fields strength is measured in amperes per meter (A/m). Commonly, EMF investigators use a related measure, flux density (in microtesla (µT) or millitesla (mT) instead.

AND
the devices tat used to detect is reveal on tis website
http://www.lessemf.com/dcgauss.html

One of them is the

HALL EFFECT SEMI-CONDUCTOR
Sensitive to Magnet Polarity

This component can be used in a circuit to open and close a contact when exposed to alternating N and S poles of a magnet. Will also work if exposed to the same pole on alternative sides of the sensor.

Many uses including:
Counting revolutions, oscillations, or sequences
Turning LEDs, alarms, or other devices on/off
Detecting presence of magnetized materials
Intruder/theft alarms
Monitor start/stop of a moving process
Robotic effects and magic tricks!
Schematic of an example circuit included. Part number may vary from picture. Very unique!
Hall Effect Semi-Conductor Sensor (Cat. #A402) … $2.00 each

This is the cheapest one tat looks like a conductor size tat allow u to solder it to a circuit board
there ar more devices there for u to view

ok... how about car battery and some advance car's circuit board??? lol??

haha, no idea about it at the mean time, will do further research then..

i think it's different cell
car it's not using dry cell... no magnetic...

don't know what happened to my uMB today?
i pressed on F8 to play iTunes then hang already =='
then at that moment i got Mail so i clicked on it.
Also hang ady. then i restart. then hang again for awhile.

then i restart 2nd time. only can run normal. but jsut now open iTunes also hang abit. wonder why?

guys I'm a total noob to macs and got my macbook pro yesterday but then idownloaded some stuff like transmission and thn when I restarted or shut down it will disappear later....and I accidentally uploaded photos from my phone twice means that there are 2 of the same photos inside my photo folder and it's hell trying to delete'em it's all mixed up....I can't seem to find a way to arrange my files in alphabetical order....help!

where u park? the zon's multi story parking?
and when u kena?

I'm too scare to leave my laptop in my car, even go yamcha or gym also carry it around..

Guys pls help me can anybody tell me why when I upload pics from my phone sumtimes the pics would be duplicated twice? and I can't seem to arrange pics in my "All Images".....just wanna ask is "All Images" the equivalent of "My Pictures" on Windows? and when I delete photos from iPhoto it still remains in "All Images"?

Apple "Might.." drop Nvidia Chips...
as the Lawsuits between Intel and Nvidia..

read through the news 1st to understand the situation

If u dislike it pls dont flame as this a news solely from Apples rumors site

Hi, I'm wondering if downloading updates from the Apple software updater will decrease HDD space? I notice my HDD space has decreased by some 0.05GB after downloading the latest iPhoto update. If this goes on for every single update (including other software updates) from now, surely my HDD space will be decreasing from time to time?

dont worry normally it'll only replace the old codes with the new ones,it wont dramatically decrease HDD space that much.

You mean 'dramatically decrease'? Okay, thanks rod.

bro，since you dunno anything about mac, start learning from here

cuz alot of thing is quite hard to explain by word
