    The firewall would more than likely turn off the XP firewall - you shouldn't have two firewalls running because of apparent conflict (I've yet to see evidence of this as I run two) but Webroot is more than good enough (better than XP's version).]

    Actually, I have a question: Anyone with an iPod touch, how the hell do you get your songs transferred from it? Unfortunately you can't mount it as a removable disk drive or USB drive, so how do you go from there - and iTunes still doesn't let you drop and drag your own songs - so that's out of the question. On firmware 1.1.4 - modded.


    Thanks Drew!! As for the iPod Touch, I have one, but don't know exactly what you mean by "transfering" songs from it......... do you mean syncing?

    Like say you lose some songs from your computer, like you delete them on accident and the Bin serves no purpose, how would you copy them back?

    Like iPod > PC? Synching means copying to - which I don't want.




    That's all I get with the touch plugged in.

    hmm....... I know what you mean, and I've done that before. Unfortunately, I have no clue how to do it. I think it only works with iTunes Store Purchases though. Anyway, I know that it works with those, but I've never been able to do it with anything else. Sorry, I'm not the best of help around here, but I'm sure that someone else will coma around

    No problems - just wondering if someone knew, because I forgot to back up all the CD rips.
  5. PS3 then. . . . Can't wait for mine


  6. Indeed. I want to have all the old stuff again like Gran Turismo, Silent Hill, Tekken, Metal Gear Solid. Top quality games.

    I dunno...I've seen the Wii, 360 and the one thing that worries me about the 360 is some people have had to return theirs up to 12 times because of them overheating and eventually got a refund. But I've got a PSP now, and it might be an idea to charge it - which I haven't done in a long time.

    Hey, did you ever see this on large images?

    thats a new thing. Automatic image resizer to stop large photos fucking up the layout


  8. What a simple but great idea. Fucking iTunes fucking around again.

    Plug in my touch and it shows no music, re-plug it in and it's all there. What a weird program. I do like the fact that it doesn't look like this:



    Instead looking like this:



    All the icons it has are Installer, Summerboard, iPod, iTunes, Safari, Settings. That's it.

    How the hell did you do that to it?!

    You can transfer iTunes purchased songs to your iTunes account. Other than that there's no way that I Know of. It would have to be modded I think.
    Not an issue I've had as it's not my sole iPod.

    Well that's not mine but an example of it. This is my current theme, called "Blue Tear":



    It can be that, or as I enjoy supporting (RED):



    Firstly, I went to ziphone.org and downloaded ZiPhone, plugged in my iPod and modded it - more technically known as jailbreaking - which I'm sure you heard of. If anyone remembers Ali's iPod nano, he installed that Rockbox on it which I recommended to him - this is the next stage of it. So it is now 'Jailbroken', and looks way better than the crap it came like out of the box. But I have to stay with 1.1.4 software, otherwise Summerboard and Installer.app won't work too well (and lose my theme).

    So much for Apple's "it's impossible to hack it". I think everyone who's seen it (but not aware of the modding) has your same reaction.

    Then I installed an app called Summerboard, Installer.app and from there on in have been copying themes and whatever else to it. And best of all, all I have to do is restore it in iTunes to make it look like new - and you can still use iTunes for everything, and get free apps rather than paying $20 for apps I don't want, opposed to paying nothing for apps developers give away for free and open-source. I can also rename 'iPod' to something else - like Mofo. I can also hide any app I like, and I don't have Music and Videos as icons, only iPod - Videos sits behind it as a dock option.

    I couldn't find a way around re-transferring the songs as it doesn't appear as a removable storage device, so I couldn't drag off like I did on the classic (which I actually gave away to my younger sister), so I just re-ripped every CD in Foobar at 192Kbps. I'm using it as my sole iPod because I paid top dollar and I want to get the best use out of it.

    I'm sure Steve Jobs doesn't mind modding - it looks cool. I couldn't do much with the classic - it was fully locked down, and so far nobody has bypassed it yet.
