iPhone wouldn’t sync to iPhoto – fix

July 23, 2010

I hadn’t been able to sync my iPhone 4 to iPhoto once since I got it. It would try, but then tell me it couldn’t read any of the files for some reason (which I forgot to note, but there was a specific reason). I found a fix, though: 1.  Go to user–>library–>caches–>com.apple.iPhoto–>Cache.db and trash [...]

iPhone 4 and Zagg screen protector

July 22, 2010

I had to exchange my first iPhone 4 two weeks after getting it. The screen had a few scratches on it already, and the proximity sensor was a mess. I cheek-dialed, cheek-hung-up on calls, etc.  Luckily, Apple was good about swapping it out with no drama.  The replacement phone still has the proximity sensor issues, [...]

Zero KB

December 29, 2008

For a couple weeks now at least, my iPhone has been reporting “Zero KB” free space.  At first I thought I’d just filled the sucker up, but then after removing a few unused apps, some old Strong Bad Email podcasts, and a few albums, and still seeing “Zero KB”, I realized something was amiss.  For [...]

iPhone Battery/Case? 2 rocks, one stone?

November 17, 2008

Was Incase reading my mind, or perhaps my blog?  I just caught this in my iGoogle Engadget feed:  http://goincase.com/products/detail/EC20003/5 All four corners protected?  Check. Extends battery life more than double?  Check. Isn’t completely fugly?  Check. Lets you charge and sync via standard mini-USB port?  Check. Next Friday, I’ma be all over this, barring any terrible [...]

What the ground did to my iPhone

November 13, 2008

Or, more precisely, what its case didn’t prevent the ground from doing to my phone: It didn’t get destroyed or anything, and is still perfectly functional, but it’s now got some more personality.  So maybe the case did protect it a little. Still looking for a good leather or neoprene replacement that covers all 4 [...]

Worthless iPhone case!

October 28, 2008

So this morning is cold and rainy.  I was running in from my car, and out from my hoodie pocket tumbles… yep, my iPhone. Now, when I got my phone back in July, I made sure to pick up a good case for it, since I’m prone to dropping my phones.  I had an Incase [...]

iTunes password required on accessing App Store?

October 23, 2008

This has been happening the last few days or week maybe that I’ve noticed.  When I open the App Store on my phone, I immediately get prompted for my iTunes password.  I used to only have to enter it when I wanted to download a new app or update.  Does that happen for everyone now? [...]

iTunes 8, I think I’m turning Japanese?

September 9, 2008

So, I just upgraded to iTunes 8, and when I plugged in my iPhone afterward, the normal “AutoPlay” popup popped up…  Except with a bunch of crazy Asian characters in the device name that I’m assuming are Japanese, but who knows?  What’s up with that?  

iPhone app: Air Sharing

September 9, 2008

Now THIS app is very cool:  Air Sharing.  With it, you can now access (add, delete, open) files on your iPhone from your computer, over the air.  It’s free for the next 2 weeks or so, so get it now, or pay for it later. I just tested it out from my Vista pc and [...]

Managing my iPhone on two computers, at last!

August 20, 2008

I found this article, followed the steps, and voilà!  I can finally manage my music* on more than one computer.  It’s amazing that you’d have to go out of the way like this to do something so simple as using your device the way you want, but at least it works now.  Big kudos to [...]
