this guide is about transferring dvd's to your ipod but you have to rip them onto your computer first. http://www.ipodbank.com/showthread.php?t=149 i would say handbrake or handbrake lite is the best software available on mac for dvd ripping. you can find instructions on how to use it at the link i posted.
hey thanks alot ro i will deffently be checking out all of that also if there are any cool little utilies you guys use pleaselet me know
there is a good deal of software out there for mac. if there's something that you are trying to do. just post another thread or post it up in this thread and we'll get you the right software for it.. a nice start for a website with some software is: http://www.pure-mac.com also some other good sites: http://www.mac-forums.com http://www.ripdifferent.com
well iLife '06 came with it and i already have toast 7 which i love i haven't even touched my pc sence i got this anyway i would like some good photoediting / graphic design software and also software for backuping up dvds
ok.. ilife 06 comes with iphoto for your photo needs. i dont know of any for grapics. you may want to check that first link i gave you, and there may be something there.. http://pure-mac.com/graph.html you could always just get photoshop elements. under $100, and pretty dang close to photoshop. for dvd backing up. check this thread out. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/125996
