It's different. On a mbp the trackpad clicks, not the mbp case. On the magicpad they make the feet click rather than the surface, which makes it unclickable on anything other than a hard surface, they could have engineered it so that it worked like the Mbp touchpad, but they didn't. However...

Picked up a magic trackpad in regent street yesterday and my initial reservations over the clicking were gone. Although the physical click requires it to be on a solid surface, the "soft click" works very well, much better than the first time I tried it a long time ago, I've not actually managed...

This. The BBC make un-DRM'd h264 streams available for the iPhone/other mobile devices, these are of much lower resolution/quality than the normal iPlayer streams. You cannot access the normal iPlayer streams on the iPhone.

The slashes are fine, perl will change the slashes to the host system separator - even with a mixture.

It has obviously traversed down the tree, I'm guess that the problem is: 1) Either related to it being a network share 2) The path being incredibly long. 3) Windows. I'd try installing cygwin+perl and use it from there, that way it'll behave like unix rather than the native perl you installed...

Sure, You'd use the same script and when you find a match on the folder you'd just do a mkdir.

No idea! I'd use unix type slashes, so "F:/TEST Bridges/" etc. You're trying to rename a folder named "03 PI, GI and FTI" to "TESTTESTTEST"? It's possible it's case sensitivity, so change the script to: #!/usr/bin/perl -w use File::Find; $searchFolder = "F:/TEST Bridges/Bear Consultancy...

I potentially see the click bring done via the feet as being a slight issue if you're not using it on a desk, i.e on a soft surface, I will reserve judgement until I've played with one properly though. I know it supports the pseudo click like all mac trackpads, but I always turn that off as it...

The misses will be pleased, she dislikes the sound of the mouse scraping on the bedside table when I'm trying to get stuff to play on 4OD. Purchase coming up this weekend me thinks.

No worries!

Install perl from: http://win32.perl.org/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page and once installed (and ensuring perl.exe is in the path) and in the path with my script type "perl rename.pl" (assuming you named the script rename.pl) Or Download cygwin http://www.cygwin.com/ This installs a unix...

What do you mean "it didn't work?" did the script give an error? If so, what error? It worked fine for me. I had a structure like: Test/Test2/Test3/Test4/Test3 Test/Test3/Test2/Test3 Test/Test4 I set $searchFolder to say "/Users/me/Test" and then $matchName to "Test3" and $replaceName to...

Let me know how you get on. Btw, before running it for the first time I'd put a # infront of the rename command, that way you'll see what folders it would have renamed and their new folder names but without it actually doing anything....a dry run.

Just as a quickie: #!/usr/bin/perl -w use File::Find; $searchFolder = "/Users/homersimpson/test"; $matchName = "test2"; $replaceName = "test3"; finddepth(\&fileRenamer, "$searchFolder"); sub fileRenamer { $sourceName = "$File::Find::dir/$_"; if (-d $sourceName) { if ($_ eq...

My boss ordered a 16G on the 9th of July and it's being delivered tomorrow. I ordered a 32GB in the Kingston store on the 6th and got it last thursday, I had also ordered online (the 10th) and my online order hadn't shipped by the time I got the store pickup email. From this it would appear...

You could do a perl script to do this in a matter of a few lines.

If the phone is not running iOS then you can't completely disable data (well, you can, you need to put rubbish in the apns), you can only disable data roaming. On iOS4 you can completely disable cellular data.

My boss ordered one on the afternoon of the 9th and it went to "prepared for shipment" this morning. I ordered one at 8am on the 10th as I thought I'd cover bases with my priority list order at the Kingson-upon-thames store, looks like my online order is going to ship before I hear anything...

They haven't fixed it yet, they're looking into it and are looking to have a fix in the next release.

It'll be that some app hasn't been closed by the OS and has subsequently run the battery down. Restart the phone and recharge it, problem solved.

You could hang the Time Capsule direct off the VoIP router or you can hang the time capsule off the VoIP router and the computers then off the time capsule, the time capsule can operate as a dual band access point and has 3 ehternet sockets for wired connections. Back to my mac requires you to...

Apple iPhone4 press conference tomorrow.....

Ha, same situation, but I've been in it since before my holiday. Whatever you do, don't buy the £10 LG jobbie from Tesco, it's unusable as a phone - it's on a par with Windows mobile. ;)

This. The scam goes like this. 1) Applecare bought with stolen credit card. 2) Applecare is sold on ebay. 3) Apple find out that said applecare was bought with stolen card, so invalidate it. 4) Mac breaks. 5) You try to use said applecare only it's now flagged up as being bought with a stolen...

Navigon is currently on offer and is the same price as CoPilot (ok, you'll need to do the in app purchase of pull postcode for a couple of quid), Navigon and TomTom both have the best reputation on the iPhone.

This is why there's an iPhone configuration utility. ;)

And thank christ for that. Mozilla, Firefox and Gecko all need to be binned. Google know where it's at, Webkit. (There was a reason that Apple chose kHTML rather than gecko for their own browser....it's because gecko was bloated and not very well written)

All you have to do is go to the o2 website and enter in your phone number and new sim card number, you get a text with a code which you enter into the site and the "sim swap" starts. Mine took a couple of minutes. Probably take you longer to cut the sim!

Just a thought, you mention mail settings.... You do realise that when the display is off on an iPod Touch it disables WiFI and therefore push notifications don't work, instead it wakes up the WiFI every 15 minutes to do a check.

Step 1) Make Genius Appointment at nearest apple store. Step 2) Turn up with "said phone" for "said appointment". Step 3) Let Genius wave around phone and generally look purplexed. Step 4) Genius disappears out the back and returns with a new one (although "roughing it up" in a plain brown...
