>>From VHS to DVD
>Q: I have a lot of old home videos I want to transfer to DVD. What
>software or hardware do I need, and how do I get the process up and
running?--Jerry Nichols

>Create the endless DVD
>Q: How can I burn a QuickTime movie in iDVD that loops but doesn't have
>a menu?--Jane Williams
>
>Too much of a good thing?
>Q: Does having too many applications slow down a Mac? System Profiler
>lists 375 on my G5 iMac. I could remove tons of them with Austin
>Sarner's and Brian Ball's AppZapper, but would that speed up my system?--
Stephen Good

>Q: I am a dance teacher and need some recommendations for Mac-compatible
>music-editing programs. The software must be extremely user-friendly
>(I'm a non-geek) and allow me to slow down the tempo of a track without
>changing its pitch. I also need to edit a track's length and insert
>vocal narration between tracks. Any suggestions would be welcome--the
>simpler, the better!--Lorelei Coutts Luxton

>Toss out unnecessary languages
>Q: I understand that I can recover hard-disk space by removing foreign
>languages from OS X. The problem is that I need foreign-language support
>in some applications but not others. Is there a way to selectively
remove language support from applications?--Lane Weiss

>TiVo transfers
>I adore the miraculous digital video recorder TiVo, but I've also been
>frustrated by the difficulty of moving programs from my Series 2 TiVo
>boxes to my Mac and iPod. Thankfully, the following tools have made the
>process a lot easier. (Regrettably, none of them works with Series 1 or
>Series 3 TiVos.)

>[Senior Editor Christopher Breen is the author of Secrets of the iPod
>and iTunes, fifth edition, and The iPod and iTunes Pocket Guide (both
