    How to improve text editing on iOS

    Nice little vid of how Apple could improve text editing. Looks really slick. The current method sucks! There's details in the vid description or the link of how to request the feature. The more people that do it, the better chance we have of better editing implementation...

    RROD from surge protector?!

    Has anyone experienced this? I bought a surge protector from ikea yesterday and when I plugged my 360 in, it cut out then RROD'd on reboot. MS troubleshooting said to remove the 360 from the surge protector and plug it directly into the wall. I did that and the RROD disappeared and it seems to...

    Cases for new iPad - What are you going for?

    Well after a pointless 2 hour trek round town I still couldn't find anything that I liked. I'm after something similar to the otter box in terms of protection but without being so big, bulky and heavy. What will you guys be getting and what will you be using the iPad for? Mine's being used at...

    Extend wifi range using old router - is there an easy way?

    I have two old netgear routers that I don't use and wanted to turn them into extenders for the network at my workplace. Have tried looking at a few different tutorials but they all seem really complex! Is there an easy way to do this. Also, where would be the best place to place the router...

    Clean install and reinstalling purchased but downloaded apps.

    What's the deal with this? I bought Office for Mac student when I was at uni but that was 2 years ago and I feel like doing a fresh install of OS X as I'm getting more into music production and want it all to run smoothly. How do I reinstall the software and do I need keys again? I have no...

    Will I have problems over here with an Australian PS3?

    From what I've read so far we're in the same bluray region and games don't have regions anyway. My mate is willing to sell his for cheap as he moved back from a year in Oz and never uses it. Could there be any other issues i.e. power, online content etc? I'm guessing I can wipe it and create a...

    Macbook to Samsung Smart TV only works intermittently through HDMI.

    Anyone have any ideas what I can do? Last night bought a new TV, Samsung UE40D5520 and at first I couldn't get it to work with my Minidisplayport to HDMI adapter. The adapter worked fine on my old LG. I restarted the computer and changed the HDMI port on the TV and it then came on fine, 1080p...

    Has anybody coded their own app?

    Long and short of it is my girlfriends dad has an idea for an iPad app and is looking for someone to code it for them. I remember someone on here had made a TV guide app or something but couldn't remember who. He's looking to split profits pretty much 50/50 with the right person! Anyone...

    Anybody use a mifi device?

    I'm thinking of getting one as my current USB dongle contract runs out soon. Are they worth it? Will be using with an MBP, iphone and eventually an iPad too. Are they quicker in real world usage than a dongle as some of the reviews I've seen show quicker speeds for d/l and u/l Will probably go...

    I'm about to install a 750gb WD Scorpio Blue drive into my 2010 13" MBP Have read a few reviews and this drive seems to produce similar results to some of the 7200rpm drives whilst also being cheaper and having more capacity. How big do I need the partition for OSx and all the applications...

    Hi guys, having a crack at photoshop to make a few flyers for my gym. Just after some feedback on this if you could be so kind! I thought it may have too much text but don't really know how I can get my point across with any less. I don't know why it uploaded so small. The source file is...

    123 Reg - getting it to work without WWW at start of URL?

    Hi guys, I've just uploaded my iWeb site via mobileme but i'm having trouble getting it to work without www at the start, which is annoying. I read somewhere about altering the DNS and having an asterisk at the start. I configured the first one to get it working as 'www CNAME...

    Tracked a stolen iPhone 4 tonight!

    Basically a phone and wallet got stolen last week from the gym I work at but it was only a little old s**tter so we had no way of finding it. There was, however, someone that we suspected as being a bit suspicious. Anyway, this week an iPhone 4 went missing at the same time/location and the...

    Don't suppose anyone has carried out a business risk assessment of apple?

    The GF has an assignment on business risk assessment and has to find out a risk that a major company has faced and/or overcome. I suggested maybe using Apple as they were on the brink of going under before the iPod and she seemed keen but doesn't know where to look. She needs to look for risk...

    Panic Unison - Worth the $29?

    I've been trying this out and quite like it, although haven't quite got the hang of it! Am i right in thinking that it's a lot better than SABnzbd as you can actually browse newsgroups with this? Or can you somehow do with with the latter?

    Best newsgroups for mp3 singles?

    I'm currently using giganews and nzbmatrix but I can't seem to find discussions on mp3 singles anywhere near as easily as I could with easynews. Any tips? If I wanted to scan alt.binaries.sounds.mp3 for example, how would i do such a thing?

    Decided to replace superdrive with HDD - Which kit?

    Has anybody done this yet? One of the US suppliers, MCE tech, includes an external USB 2.0 caddy to stick the superdrive in. Is there anybody in the UK that offers something like that? The kit can be ordered from the site below but it seems expensive and they said to expect an additional...

    HDD upgrade for 13" pro - Momentus XT SSD Hybrid?

    I use my MBP for DJing and the stock 250gb hard drive only has around 40gb left on it so I want to upgrade. Does anyone have experience with the Momentus XT? It has 4gb of SSD memory and supposedly learns how you use your computer to load certain applications quicker. But is it true that...

    How many people are using MobileMe?

    I just signed up for the free trial and have to say that although it does seem a little expensive, the features and sync options on it are great. Thinking of getting a code from ebay to sign up once the trial runs out. I like the fact that when I add a contact or calendar, it's sent to the...

    Why no visual voicemail on orange?!

    Is it the same for other networks? Is the feature only on O2? TBH I'm majorly disappointed with this and am contemplating trying to get out of the contract. I can't see how they can't offer a core feature after all this time. Is there a cool-off period for new contracts? If so I may switch to...

    Android Vs Windows Phone 7

    Will anybody be jumping on the windows phone bandwagon when it's released? I'm not sure where to go next. Moving away from blackberry but dont want to shell out on iphone contracts, especially considering I have an ipod touch for most of the apps I'd use anyway. I also like having a separate...
