Because I know my blog is popular with O2 users. Here’s a snippet of information that may help avoid grief although I can’t offer an explanation or complete resolution. Over the past month I’ve noticed that Back to my Mac hasn’t been available for me to access my home computer remotely. If I go into [...]
Its often good practice to slow down, stop and take a look around. That’s just what I’m doing now. Its a quiet Sunday morning post Christmas and Boxing Day. Having sat in front of the screen for a while catching up on the news and my dismal Fantasy Premier league score this week I realised [...]
I have VMWare on my MacBook Pro but its only for occasional admin work. I get the impression on performance that I’d be better with a Boot Camp install but i don’t want to reboot or have another full OS install. I spotted an article on iGadget Life the other day that suggested using CrossOver [...]
To commemorate Talk Like A Pirate Day 2009 I give all you iPhone/iPod Touch users my current wallpaper (for the day anyway).
I thought it best to do a summary of recent events so as not to have such a backlog of things I wanted to mention that it prevented me posting anything at all. The holiday went well. We’d opted to go to our friends apartment again. Its in a brilliant location in Arenal D’en Castell [...]

I’ve always had an on off relationship with video. I have a few holiday sequences much of which is from some time back and the edited footage is on VCD with the source long since deleted (I still have all the original footage on tape). One project that I have always been meaning to tackle [...]
When people ask me about the new iPhone 3GS the feature that gets shown least is the voice control. Not that it’s not notable but because I just forget its there. Having said that when I have used it (when I remember) it is very good. I’m amazed at how accurate it is even with [...]
With 32GB being rolled out on the iPhone I thought I’d write up a little gotcha that has a very simple solution. For some time now I’ve been without my 60GB iPod. Since it was stolen I never replaced it and I’d got by with a selection of playlists on my 16GB 3G iPhone. Now [...]
