I'm having a ton of trouble with my 360.

1) I cannot find information on how to transfer music from itunes to the 360 HD
- some1 told me it can be done w/ a jump drive.. any1 have sucess?

2) My apartment is in the basement of my landlord's home. i connect to the internet wirelessly. The signal down here is rather weak, infact only my imac is able to pick it up. several dell laptops cannot pick up signal at all i luv my mac the 360 wireless package also cannot find signal. I would like if possible to use my imac to connect xbox live to the wireless router.

3) Also i purchased a used 360 game witch is not in the best shape. I am curious can i rip 360 game w/ mactheripper and burn them on DL DVD's w/ toast?

4) can i save 360 progress on my imac?

5) i was also told that there are patches out there inorder to play xbox games on xbox 360? how do i go about putting those patches on my 360? And where can i find them?

An easy way to do this is to download Connect 360 and just stream it from your Mac.

Linksys makes a wireless-G signal repeater, you might want to try that first.

Nope not without changing firmware on your DVD-rom of your 360 voiding the warranty and all.

4) can i save 360 progress on my imac?


I dont think so.

It will be an Auto-Update when you connect to Xbox Live, they are supposed to update it again this summer, not all games will work.

This is the list of working games.
