That sucked more balls than Apples ordering system. I f**king hate "ajax" shopping carts. Still, I got one eventually.

iPad Mac mini Mac book pro iPhone 4 Apple tv A load of random iPods Did have a 4s up until the other day, but sold it, waiting for the nexus 4 to go on sale Tuesday.

In that case I bet it's due to the 64 bit OS and the installer not correctly supporting it, it's probably using the wrong version of regsvr32 to try and register the DLLs. See if there's a newer installer or one specifically for 64bit.

Data is backed up on a daily basis to the backup server, the data is backed up to a hot swap drive, hot swap drives are rotated every week and taken off sites, this means at worse the data is one week old should everything on sites be destroyed. As it's all based on rsync over ssh, off site...

It happened again.... This time a vital machine at work went down - this happened a couple of years ago with another machine, so I built a backup system using rsync that created daily backups of important data. Both ends of the backup system would email if there was a problem i.e client was...

Try running the installer as administrator. If that fails, try setting compatability to a lower version of windows. I hate COM with a passion.

iOS6 is pretty unimpressive too.

You're being special. Type the name of the artist into the search bar and the click the little arrow on the magnifying glass and select "Artist".

The slowness of the box is down to the UI, this puts the UI on your tablet. This is the TiVo app tricked into working on a UK box: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yxdzo2ur2tQ this is a leak of the UK app: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxGCvl1U1eA

It's a long saga..... Basically, the US TiVo can use the brilliant App that TiVo provide in the (US) app store. Now, this app did not work with the VM TiVo, however, by using a bonjour proxy it was possible to trick the app into thinking that the UK TiVo was a US TiVo and then it would all...

There you go, a valid reason to use it! I bet you're the exception to the rule, infact, I'd probably say that a lot of people install these Apps use it once or twice before they realise unless they have good reason to use it, it's actually quicker and easier to use the original remote. It's...

For the most part, I actually find *those* kind of applications (mostly) pointless. Things like Hi-Fi's come with remotes, and generally it's a case of "Pick up remote, press button" to do the functionality. When you start involving a device like a phone/tablet, you then go to "Pick up device...

I agree, but like a lot of people I use the tablet almost exclusively for: * Web Surfing * Email * Facebook It's fairly rare that I use it for anything else, the wife is the same, she has hardly any apps installed on her iPad. Thing is, Google appear to be getting serious now. Before it...

Why I left apple for Phone/Tablet devices.... If I hadn't had iOS6 prior to the iPhone 5 announcement I'd probably have done the normal thing of selling before the keynote and buying the 5 as soon as it went on sale, but the fact that iOS6 was such a weak "update" meant that there was no way I...

4S is off to Mazuma....

It supports USB OTG which means it has Host and Device support, it's just a cabling issue (hardware wise). Software wise, no idea if a stock Nexus 7 will support a HID device connected to the OTG port, maybe require rooting to enable the functionality.

Do it, you wont be disappointed - the nexus 7 is brilliant.

Google have given apple a massive problem. When apple were so far ahead of the competition with phones they could justify the premium price tag, but this hardware coupled with all the iterations in software up to jellybean have shrunk that difference. Same with the iPad to be honest, the nexus...

Had to happen, iOS6 is nothing short of poor, its iOS5 but a bit worse, when you've got android moving in the opposite direction and jellybean "almost" there then something has to give. I suspect forstall spent the year between 5 and 6 counting his cash and stock options. Good riddance.

I don't see the point in LTE anyway (at this point in history), certainly not for the life of these devices anyway. Today's batch of LTE devices will be like dinosaurs by the time there's a decent countrywide service. At no point have I ever thought "3G" is slow, even tethering. The only...

Your gripe isn't with Android, it's with your hardware manufacturer. Remember that once that phone is sold, there's zero further revenue to be made from it. Back porting newer versions of Android would basically come out of their profit margin for previous phones (i.e their pocket), there...

No, it'll work with bluetooth as well, it's just a command that the accessory can send. That's all I can really say about it. Academic anyway as you need both the MFI documentation and crypto IC's to use bluetooth anyway.

On android it's done with intents. On iOS it's possible (and I use that in the loosest sense of the word), but not "app side"...it's part of the iAP protocol.

For me it's not even a case of what crap they may or may not have added, it's about having access to the latest release of Android. To be in a situation where you buy a brand new phone but have no idea whether it does or will ever run the current latest revision of the OS is unacceptable - at...

I think if you were having a conversation with somebody face to say you'd say. (You'd have to hold your hands up and move your fingers to indicate the quotes) If you own the latest iPad: Note the lack of quotes and therefore finger movement. Anything other than face to face, you're own...

I'd disagree in the US though, the price differential is enough (stateside) for anybody other than the "I only buy premium" market think twice. $329 for a 16GB iPad Mini. $199 for a 8GB N7. The rumours seem to be that there is just going to be a shift of storage on the N7 so that the 8GB...

I never understood why somebody inside apple thought that calling the last gen ipad "the new ipad" was a good idea. There are some odd decisions on stuff going on inside apple.

There's only one reason you bring the competition into your sales pitch, because you're worried about them and feel the need to rubbish them. It's like a Samsung pitch. Odd, very odd.

This, should be transparent as long as VLC is installed to handle the DVD decryption.
