Hello again. I’m back … and we’re back on the topic of calendars! UPDATE! – I’ve added a separate article looking at the far simpler sync options for iOS 4. If you’re still using iPhone OS 3.X, then read on – otherwise click here for the updated how-to.

The weather was so wonderful yesterday that I finally got a chance to try out my new Nikon D90 camera in the full sun. For the last several years I’ve been using a Nikon D70 camera before I finally decided to upgrade last month. The camera was well worth

I’ve had an Apple TV for a number of years, along with an iPod Touch and now (finally!) and iPhone. Before I had any of those things I made a conscious decision to transfer all my CD’s to iTunes and change the way I manage and access my

Got a WordPress blog? Thinking of moving to a new server or host? I’ve recently moved from a basic hosting package to a VPS, and part of the move involved migrating this website (a WordPress-powered blog) with all it’s essentials intact. I’d not done this before so

Hi there! If you were quick enough to catch my last post, you’ll know that I’m in the progress of changing hosts and moving to a virtual private server (VPS) solution for my website. That change has (finally) taken place, and you’ll looking the new and improved

All this talk recently of browsers and email clients has distracted me from another problem that I’ve been struggling with for several years now: How do I keep all my calendars in sync? It sounds like a simple question, and in theory the answer should be simple. However, I

I remember a number of years ago that “Internet Radio” was all the rage. Without having to spend upwards of £300 on a new “digital” radio, you could easily tune into radio from around the world. I remember spending warm, sunny summer’s days living in the cottage with live

For quite some time now I’ve toyed with the idea of setting up a home server. Actually, I’ve setup plenty of home servers over the years but since I moved house I just lost interest. I had a perfectly good NAS, so there seemed little point … In the

Hey folks, I just wanted to give you link to a great little Twitter desktop client I’ve been using recently. It’s called Tweetr, and runs on both Windows and OSX thanks to Adobe Air. Just as with Twitter, the application is clean, simple and doesn’t get in

I get to meet a number of famous folk with the work that I do. A lot of the time it’s a very passive experience: I might be attending an event or opening night, and can claim to have met someone just because I’m in the same room

This is only a short post, but it’s something you folks might be able to offer some opinion on: What browser do you use? And while you’re at it, what eMail client to you perfer? Here’s the story: Way back in the days of old, my very
Audio Editing
It’s been a long time since I actually used some multi-track, virtual studio software for the job it was intended for. I usually dip in, tweak some levels, and export … or at a push I use the convenience of the multiple tracks to help create composite sound effects for
Just thought I’d raise my head for a few moments to say hello. I’m currently engineering the sound for a production of Sweeney Todd in Yeadon, so I havent been able to post much here in the last two weeks. However, I did manage to snap this wide-angle

I kick myself every time I do this … Whenever I decide to reinstall Windows (something I’ve found less frequent with Vista thankfully) or OSX, and I busy myself with making sure everything is backed up ready to be transferred back once I’ve finished, I sometimes forget the relatively

[iTunes Version 8.0.2.20 at the time of writing] I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve had to move all my files from one PC to another, either because I’m reinstalling Windows; I’ve purchased a new laptop, or any number of other

Here’s an interesting thing I discovered tonight: If, like me, you’re fed up of installing and reinstalling copies of Windows XP or Vista then you may appreciate this tip to save a bit of time: Install from a CF card! I’ve recently had to rebuild Mrs T’
