Multi-Touch is coming!!! Macworld Vs CES

Expect it soon, the rest of the Apple multi-touch line of products is coming and soon...

I had predicted this a long time ago but it is coming now, Apple is now hiring the rest of the multi-touch expert team, they are hiring engineers. They probably already have the prototype created, they will at least polish the device so that they can show it off during the MacWorld, just like they did with the Iphone...

Unfortunately, you will probably have to wait at least a year to get this Macbook touch in your hands, even though they will present it on the MacWorld, you will have to wait some time until they polish the device...

People... Steve Jobs will not go to the MacWorld with his empty hands, he is a leader, he will steal the CES attention if Microsoft or another huge corporation doesn't come up with a cooler device for the show, if they don't, we will be seeing the same as with the Iphone, the world focused its atention on Steve Jobs and his Iphone...

If Microsoft, Sony or any other corporation wants to get the attention, I suggest they get a line of MultiTouch devices combined with wireless compatiblity. out for the CES, I don't know how they'll do it, but they must find a way and fast... Microsoft, don't forget to make that device stylish because if you guys don't, Mac will.

If Microsoft can get the same software as for the surface into a notebook or the Zune, and use it in the same MultiTouch way, they will get the world's attention I love how the surface software works, it is absolute freedom. Try doing something like in Minority Report... And why not, get a new line of multi touch Zune Devices but get the Zune Phone out already, as well as the Zune Notebook Touch!!! Microsoft, You can do it!!!

A File Crisis... Do's and Don'ts

It was late, you were working on that final paper for college... You saved the file, after you saved it you went and checked that it was on the folder... When you were doing this, you accidentally erased one of your most important files.

You are looking for a word to describe this, !Shit, Fuck, Oy Vey¡ You worked so hard, why the hell did I do that?...

First of all, DO NOT PANIC follow the Do's and Don'ts below


DO's and Don'ts in this crisis

Don't: Do not, by any chance continue working or saving anything in your computer, if you do this you may end up losing all your files FOREVER.

Don't: Do not let time pass, the more time you lose, the more possible it is for your files to be lost FOREVER.

Do: first of all check the Recycle Bin, If you haven't erased any of the files from the recycle bin they will probably be there. Notice that depending on the properties you selct, the recycle bin might have a periodical time when it gets emptied by the PC, that is why you have to act fast

Do: If your files are not in the recycle bin, you must look directly in your hard drive... When your files are erased from your recycle bin or "from your PC" they end in a part of your Hard Drive which is a sort of a subconscious. The reason you must stop working and saving files is because, since the computer considers that you have deleted these files on purpose it will eventually overwrite in them new files.

If you want to look in these part of your Hard Drive, follow the link below and download the undelete software.

If you have programs such as Norton 360, you probabbly don't know but Norton has a backup folder of your deleted files so you can probabbly find your erased files here. There are tons of other backup and recovery programs, these are just a few examples...

If this software doesn't work for you, try googling the following words:
Free Undelete Utility or Free Recovery Software Utility.

DO: When you have your files back, please DO NOT forget to create backup folders for all your files... This is a crucial step so that if this happens again you already have the solution which is your backup file... Remember that you must have backup files outside of your PC so that if for some reason it gets damaged or it is attacked by a virus, you always have your backups.

This is just a really funny video

Fix your Ipod

Yes... Ipods can be very frustrating.
I say this from personal experience, I have only bought an ipod in my life, after it damaged I transferred to Zune which I must say is an excellent device...

The story is the following, I have an ipod which after being in use for about a year got corrupted for some reason. I tried everything, I went to the Apple store they said they couldn't do anything, I took it to a computer specialist, he wasn't able to fix it either, I tried everything in the manuals... etc, etc, etc...

So after all this trouble I sat one day in my house and started to look for a solution... This are all the things I did, if your ipod doesn't work after this, I suggest you get a Zune... Just kidding Apple.

Follow the steps listed below (remember this is if your ipod is corrupted or not working for some reason, almost every problem can be solved here, if not you can try apple support or others):

STOP: Before you do anything, please read the manual or take it to the Apple store to see what they can do for you.



(This is directly from Apple's support pages)

1) First of all try reseting your ipod:

1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
   
2. Press and hold the Menu and Center (Select) buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 8 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.

2) Try downloading Itunes latest version (iTunes here)

3) If this doesn't work try restoring your ipod:

1. Ensure that you have an active Internet connection as new versions of iTunes and iPod Software may need to be downloaded to your computer.
2. Download and install the latest version of iTunes if you do not already have it installed.
3. Open iTunes, and then connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
4. After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
5. Select your iPod in the Source panel and you will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes windows.
6. Click the Restore button. You will be prompted with one or more restore options that may prompt iTunes to automatically download the latest iPod Software. The 4 possible restore options are:
7. • Restore Option 1: Restore - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod.
   • Restore Option 2: Use Same Version - Restores with same iPod Software version already on iPod even though a newer version is available.
   • Restore Option 3: Use Newest Version - Restores with the latest iPod Software available.
   • Restore Option 4: Restore and Update - Restores with the latest iPod Software available.
8. If you are using a Mac, a message will appear prompting you to enter an administrator’s name and password.
9. A progress bar will appear on the computer screen indicating that the first stage of the restore process has started. When this stage is completed, iTunes will present one of two messages on screen with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
10. • Restore Instruction 1: Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
    • Restore Instruction 2: Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
11. During the stage 2 of the restore process, the iPod will show an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remains connected to the computer or iPod Power adapter during this stage. Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see since the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
12. After stage 2 of the restore process is complete and the iPod is connected to the computer, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear asking you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences similar to when you connected your iPod for the first time.

4) After you have tried this three stuff, try restoring the .dll files with the following steps:

1. Disconnect the iPod from the computer and close iTunes.
2. Highlight all of the following 10 lines of text that begin with regsvr32 and then choose Copy from the Edit menu of your web browser:

regsvr32 /s softpub.dll
regsvr32 /s wintrust.dll
regsvr32 /s dssenh.dll
regsvr32 /s rsaenh.dll
regsvr32 /s gpkcsp.dll
regsvr32 /s sccbase.dll
regsvr32 /s slbcsp.dll
regsvr32 /s mssip32.dll
regsvr32 /s cryptdlg.dll
regsvr32 /s initpki.dll

3. Open the Notepad program by navigating to:
Start > All Programs > Accessories > Notepad
4. In Notepad, choose Paste from the Edit menu. Note: make sure that the text that appears in Notepad is the same as what is shown above.
5. From the File menu, choose Save As.
6. In the File name: field type appleipod.bat and save the file to the Desktop.
7. Close Notepad and locate the appleipod.bat file. It should appear on the Desktop with the icon shown below:

8. Double-click the file and you will see a black window appear on the screen for about a minute. Wait until the window automatically disappears and proceed to the next step.
9. The appleipod.bat file can be deleted at this time.
10. Open iTunes and connect the iPod.
11. When the iPod appears in iTunes, restore the iPod and resync your content.

This is what saved my ipod...

5) Sometimes there is a problem with the ipod's hardrive try opening it and close it again as shown below (By doing this you will completely void your warranty, do it carefully) I am not responsible if your ipod gets damaged you are donig this at your own risk...
