Saurik pushes out Cydia update to remove April Fools’ joke

Posted: 31 Mar 2012 04:27 PM PDT

Those of you that appreciate a good prank might not want to install the new Cydia update. Saurik just announced that he has pushed out Cydia 1.1.6 to remove last year’s Twitter-inspired “dickbar” April Fools’ Day joke.

For those of you unfamiliar with the holiday, April Fools’ Day falls on the first day of April and is celebrated around the world with good-natured pranks and hoaxes. But apparently not everyone has a sense of humor…(...)

Apple and publishers nearing eBooks settlement with DOJ

Posted: 31 Mar 2012 11:48 AM PDT

It appears that Apple may avoid going head to head with the Department of Justice over possible eBook price fixing, with the news from Reuters that the company behind iBooks and publishers may be close to coming to an agreement with the DOJ.

Earlier this month it was suggested that Apple and book publishers had been colluding in order to fix the price of electronic books, and with Apple already in so many court rooms it is clear that the firm could do without having to fight on yet another front.

Even Apple can’t take on everyone…(...)

How to install aTV Flash (black) on the Apple TV 2 running iOS 5.0

Posted: 31 Mar 2012 05:56 AM PDT

Unlike iPhone jailbreaks, the Apple TV jailbreak isn’t as straightforward. For instance, after jailbreaking there’s no Cydia app icon to start installing your favorite apps and tweaks from various repos.

This is where a tool like aTV Flash (black) comes in. This handy package from FireCore allows you to install some of the most popular jailbreak apps directly on your jailbroken Apple TV without breaking a sweat.

Check out our video walkthrough inside…(...)

The Apple TV 2 jailbreak for the 5.0 firmware (iOS 5.1) is finally among us, and that means that we get to experience jailbreaking with Apple’s brand new Apple TV interface.

Although this is a tethered jailbreak, it really doesn’t get any easier than Seas0npass. Step inside to see why this is one of the best jailbreak tools across any iOS device…(...)

While I was aware that the SL disk can do a full install, I thought that one of two things had to be true before it would proceed. You either have to have 10.5 currently installed or you have to have a 10.5 disc. In any case, it may be perfectly happy to do a full install over Lion.

Maybe the only limitation was that it will not "upgrade" a 10.4 installation. But that seems a bigger loophole than I remember since you could do a full install and either restore or "migrate" your users.

So maybe I'm wrong, but I can understand why Jim might hesitate.

Have you tried using the Universal Access settings in System Preferences. I find magnifying the cursor indispensable. You might want to setup the Zoom function. If you use this, I would consider going back to native screen resolution to gain the real estate and use zoom when necessary.

Are you saying that is the correct area where the fonts are too small, but it will not increase it enough?

If so, then you options are go to a lower resolution or use Universal Access and the Zoom option. You do not need to change to just B&W.

Thanks, Jon. I was afraid that might be the case down the road.

I'll get to work on updating my iTunes as soon as I'm sure all my files are backed up. I don't want any glitches or mess-ups.

I have almost 11K songs, 400+ movies, 200+ apps and few podcasts and TV shows in my library. Wouldn't want to lose anything! :-)

Clearly the Dell must be using a password (which you've forgotten). Can you
get into the router's admin function so you can at least see which
encryption type is in use?

Both computers are receiving emails, but I just seldom look at them on the G4 due to its lack of speed. Occasionally I go to the G4 and clean them out. But if I'm not receiving all the emails on the Mini (I haven't checked them one by one, but it seems I'm not getting nearly the previous number) I have no idea why.

Louise,

I've brought this up several times but you still don't seem to understand
why I've done so.

If your G4 is receiving emails (which are then *deleted* automatically from
the email server), they can *not* then be received from the *same account*
on the mini. You are "cleaning out" emails on the G4 that you are
complaining about not seeing on the mini.

We can't fix "seems".

If the account is IMAP and you delete it on one of the computers, it may be deleting in on the other. Don't worry about the email on the G4, and don't even open the email app, unless you are checking for missing emails. Which I bet you aren't, unless one of the accounts on the new Mini is not set up correctly.

One other thing, have you checked the Junk folder on the Mini for good emails? It could be catching good emails from say yahoo or hotmail accounts and putting them in your Junk folder.

So far, my Mini junk emails are appearing in the regular list of emails, but as a different color to indicate possible junk. I see them as they come thru and then ID them as junk or not. I figured once I'd done this for a while, I'd put them into a junk folder like my G4 has. So, I do see everything that comes in.

No, I don't understand lots of things sometimes because I'm sort of a computer dunce in some areas. :-( I always look at the emails on the Mini before cleaning them out on the G4. Does that make a difference? If I don't clean out the G4 occasionally, I'll have thousands of emails in no time.

OK, in re-reading this, I think I misunderstood AGAIN. Sorry. So, you're saying the email shouldn't be going to the G4 at all? At first I had the G4 set to only download from the server manually, but because I get so many emails, I kept getting messages from Earthlink that I had about exceeded or had exceeded the available memory. So I went back in to the G4 and made it download every hour. But the Mini is set to download every 5 or 10 minutes, I think.

Sorry if I'm still in the dark. :-(

Howdy.

To tell if your Mac has booted into 32-bit or 64-bit kernel boot mode
open System Profiler.

In Mac OS X 10.7, it is called "System Information."

In earlier versions of Mac OS X, it is called Apple System Profiler.

It lives in the Utilities folder.

A short cut is to open About This Mac¡Ã„ under the Apple menu then click
More Info¡Ã„ button which invokes System Information.

When System information opens scroll down the list and click on
Software. This may take some time to display and populate the window
since it has to gather a lot of information.

When it populates look at this batch of info which I've copy/pasted
from my Mac.

System Software Overview:

System Version: Mac OS X 10.7.3 (11D50)
Kernel Version: Darwin 11.3.0
Boot Volume: ViennaHD1
Boot Mode: Normal
Computer Name: dan¡Ã‡s Mac Pro
User Name: dan (dan)
Secure Virtual Memory: Enabled
64-bit Kernel and Extensions: No
Time since boot: 3 days 8:25

The line that says "64-bit Kernel and Extensions: No" is my MacPro
first gen.

If I had a 2nd generation MacPro, it would have a "Yes" in this line
because it can boot into 64-bit kernel boot mode.

There is a helpful and free little utility at this web site:

<http://www.ahatfullofsky.comuv.com/English/Programs/SMS/SMS.html>

The utility is named: 32- or 64-bit Kernel Startup Mode Selector.

That can tell you about this 32 and 64 bit kernel boot mode stuff. The
web site has an excellent bunch of info that explains this in plain
English. You can also download the free utility and use it to find
out.

PhotoStream & iPhoto Problem

Howdy.

The iCloud Photo Stream feature just doesn't seem to make much sense
for me.

It is working from my iPhone. I take a picture and a bit later the
picture is also shown in the iPhone's Photo Stream album.

Photo Stream WAS working in my iPhoto application on my Mac. Now it is
now longer working.

Zero photos are shown in iPhoto's Photo Stream source.

The Help for iPhoto says to click the Photo Stream source in the
Library column and then click "turn on."

I've copied this phrase from the Help feature and pasted it here,
"Click Turn On Photo Stream (on the right)."

However, there is no way to turn on anything on the right.

Photo Stream is configured correctly in iCloud in System Prefs, it's
turned on in iPhoto prefs, it's working on my iPhone, Photo Stream WAS
working a month or so ago but no longer.

So. What's going on?

Is Mac HD gone in Lion

I suddenly realized that I had not seen the Mac HD icon. I was reading one of miy old files about OS X adding items to the menu. It mentioned Mac HD, so I looked for it, and couldn't find it. I ran Disk Util to see whether Mac HD showed, and DU froze with the perpetual beach ball. I clicked to send message to Apple.

I'm guarding that Mac HD IS gone, I noticed too that Finder is completely different too.

WOW!

Jim
