Ok, so it works for some DVD's and not for others. I have a DVD that I tried it with that kept crashing Handbrake. Oh well.

Since dvds have all kinds of .vob files on the disc that are pieces and parts of the movie, how do I know which ones to convert and how do I get those vob's put together into one file? I normally use RipIt on my iMac but if there's a way to do it in Handbrake, eliminating the RipIt step, I might save time in the long run.

As Leo Laporte has said many times, once you buy a dvd it should be yours to put on any computer you wish so long as you don't torrent or give away the digital copy you make. Movie studios don't agree.

Stores in our area are moving away from the self check outs because theft has risen by 8 fold in the past 2years. Human eyes are more effective that cameras.

That's very true. I'm hopeful Apple won't have too much theft because of Easy Check.

Apple Delivers Early iOS 5 Bug Fix to Some Lucky Users

Posted by: "Bill Boulware" bill.boulware@gmail.com   boulware0224

Tue Nov 8, 2011 3:17 pm (PST)



Did anyone receive this?

Sent to you by Bill Boulware via Google Reader: Apple Delivers Early
iOS 5 Bug Fix to Some Lucky Users via Wired: Gadget Lab by Christina
Bonnington on 11/8/11


iOS 5 users got many improvements to their iOS experience, but some
also got a few bugs with the package. Image: Brian X. Chen/Wired.com


Much to the chagrin of Apple, the recent release of iOS 5 didn't go off
without a hitch. Hordes of iOS users reported battery life issues,
among other bugs. Fortunately a solution will arrive soon, and some
beta testers are already sampling the software update.

A small number of iOS 5 users were given early access to an unreleased
upgrade, iOS 5.0.1, according to 9to5Mac. The update is supposed to
remedy the battery life issues users have complained about since
upgrading to iOS 5, as well as Siri issues, buggy iCloud documents and
multitasking gestures on first-gen iPads.

Early participants won't be able to downgrade back to iOS 5, but will
be able to update to the final version of the fix when it's released to
iOS users at large.

After the iPhone 4S and iOS 5 debuted, an increasing number of users
reported battery problems with their iPhones and iPads. Last week,
Apple officially recognized the issue, saying they'd identified the
offending bugs and would be delivering a software update "in a few
weeks."

In addition to the early fix for members of the "AppleSeed" program,
Apple Store employees also received a memo on how to deal with
customers suffering from the iOS 5-related issues when they come into
the store. Employees were instructed not to replace the devices, but to
tell customers to wait a few weeks for the software update to arrive.

If you're one of the lucky few who got iOS 5.0.1 early, share in the
comments (or shoot me an email) to let us know how it fares.

Bill, did your phone ever see the wifi? Is your router an 'N' speed router, set to broadcast only at 'N' speeds? The 3G can't do 'N', only the older, slower 'B/G'.

We had the same problem with my wife's 3G a couple years back. It turned out
it was a hardware problem, and was replaced at the Apple Store.

He would have to have an internet connection to authorize the device and then use the internet connection to download, or access the item by sharing, the items to his device.

The OP said he had no WiFi. If he has no internet access, then the flash drive is possibly the only way.

Is there not a library or "Comm" center that provides free internet/WiFi. Normally every base/post has a morale & welfare center for Marines/Soldiers to access the internet.
