FireWire (technically known as an IEEE 1394 interface), introduced by Apple in 1995, allows a fast connection for peripherals such as video cameras. It is similar to a USB connector. The original version is now known as FireWire 400. FireWire 800 was introduced to give faster transfer speeds and supporting longer cable lengths without loss of signal. The connectors for the 400 and 800 versions are not interchangeable but converters are available which will allow FireWire 400 equipment to be connected to the FireWire 800 port at the slower connection speed.

First of all, let me point out that Linux is not a company, or even a single product. It is a building block that companies and individuals can tailor to different needs. As such, it can provide just as closely knit compatibility with the hardware as Apple can.
Windows does not have a specific hardware platform that it has to run on, unlike Mac OS X. Microsoft does not yet force hardware manufacturers to put their drivers and hardware through rigorous testing to be used with Windows. So many manufacturers can make inferior products with poor drivers, and the bugs caused by them are often shoved towards Windows. If Microsoft required better certification (which they are starting to do in their 64-bit versions), they would achieve hardware stability on par with that of Apple.
How do you reboot a frozen mac book pro?
MacBooks should never be frozen as the defrosting process will leave moisture within the computer that will cause it to stop working.
Other possibilities (although we have no idea what you are asking about) is that some software has stopped working. If you click on the frozen software's icon in the dock and hold the mouse button down for a moment a menu should pop up with the option to "Force Quit". Take that option. If that menu is unaccessible then holding down the Command (cmd), Option (alt) and Escape (esc) keys will open a Force Quit window from which you can select an unresponsive application and force it to quit.
If the computer is refusing to start up at all insert the Mac OS X installation disc. Switch on the computer and hold the C key down while the computer starts up. This will cause the computer to start from the installation disc rather than it's hard disc. From the desktop select tools/utilities and open Disk Utility. You can check the hard disc to see if there are any problems with that that may be causing the failure.
Otherwise it will probably mean a trip to a repair shop to have it checked and fixed.

It's happened to me quite a few times. That song was once playable, but now when you try and play it an exclamation point appears beside it and it just won't play.

Maybe you deleted a program you once used to get the songs, or you deleted the song elsewhere in your computer without knowing.
