So I'm using Mail for my MobileMe account so I don't have to use webmail everytime...however when I do use Mail and then later log onto MobileMe to read the email there my inbox is completely cleared out. wtf?!?
Now w/ other email programs like Netscape Communicator and previous versions of Mail (I believe) there is always an option you check to "leave email on the server." That way if you're away from your computer you can still access your messages. For the life of me I cannot find this option on Mail or MobileMe. Anyone know what is going on here and how to prevent this from happening. I know its probably something silly I'm overlooking.

With a million threads on this and so on I thought I would start one more as I am planning on spoiling myself this xmas.

Firstly, I have netshare. I've never managed to get it to work properly so I am thinking of getting a USB dongle for wireless internet while out of home/office on my macbook.
My question is this. Is proper Iphone tethering coming soon (i'm on o2)?? If not then I may as well get a 3G dongle for my laptop and spend the £10 a month. I would be kicking myself if tethering came out and I had just signed an 18 month contract for the dongle.

Thoughts? Other option is to just jailbreak my phone and get tehtering that way and I loathe to do that. What are peoples exerience of tehtering on jail broken phone? Is it easy to set up? Netshare is a nightmare to set up everytime you want to use it!

Hi everyone,

Im new to this forum. I got a problem with my iphone 2nd generation. I have upgraded my iphone from 1.2 to 2.1 and now i have a big problem. everytime i use an application, be it which application it may be it activates the GPRS of the phone. Im located in Spain and i have requested my provider to desactivate the gprs on my "contract" but it seems its not possible. If i open an application - games, such as Black Jack, iPint, etc.. application which in theory dont require internet connection, the GPRS activactes and i get charged for it. I dont know it is a bug in the unlocking software or if there is an application that is giving me problems. I cant pin point the error. Can anyone help? or suggest what i can do, as so far, my phone bill for GPRS is nearly 100 Euros a month just on "internet GPRS" connections. I have Wi-fi at home so now im scared to connect to internet using my iphone just in case its connecting both ways, WI-FI "and" GPRS!!!

please advice.

thanks

La nouvelle vidéo de David Guetta, le clip de « Everytime We Touch » featuring Chris Willis est présenté sur Internet. Tourné le 24 octobre à Amsterdam, le 28 à Tokyo et le 2 novembre...

So I recently had my ipod replaced, meaning that i had to reinstall all my apps and such.

On my original ipod I was running firmware 2.1 with dtunes working fine, no problems, great app.

I decided to upgrade my new ipod to 2.2, jailbroke it, installed dtunes, and now it crashes back to the springboard everytime i try to launch it. I tried removing / reinstalling but it made no difference.

Is this a firmware issue?
Anyone else had the same problem, or know of a solution?

Any help would be appreciated

I recently purchased a ReadyNAS unit, I use it s both my storage unit for all my computers as well as my media server for my PS3 and XBOX 360. I've moved my itunes library to my ReadyNAS and I've pointed iTunes to my ReadyNAS where my iTunes library is.

The problem is, everytime I restart my computer and plug my iPhone in, iTunes can not sync my songs, when I check my library location under the preference in iTunes, it has moved it back to the default location. All my music is still on my ReadyNAS, but under preferences, it points iTunes to the default location.

I was wondering if anyone has ran into this problem and if they have found a solution for it, any help with this is greatly appreciated.

What do emyou/em show other people to demonstrate how powerful, and yet easy to use, this new world of technology really is?/p pWe asked our staff and a number of other advanced social web users what the one thing is that they like most to show people who are less experienced with the web than they are. Some of our favorite responses are below, maybe they'll give you some fresh ideas about how to have that big conversation with the people in your life - maybe some of them will even be new for you. /p p align="right"emSponsor/embr /a href='http://d.openx.org/ck.php?n=12790amp;cb=12790' target='_blank'img src='http://d.openx.org/avw.php?zoneid=861amp;cb=12790amp;n=12790' border='0' alt='' align="right" //a/p pWe think this is more than just fun to talk about.

We agree that these are great approaches for turning people on to the new web. pThere were a number of people who said that showing people how to use browser tabs made a big difference. (This author has a hard time comprehending that, to be honest.) Communications consultant a href="http://twitter.com/JordanGuthmann"Jordan Guthman/a says he likes to show people Google's "advanced search" and in particular the option to limit searches to content posted within the last 24 hours.

The wisdom of the crowd may not be the best way to have your editorial decisions made in music, news or other content. Google's omniscience warrants some serious skepticism. RSS increases information consumption but may very well cost us contemplation./p pWe believe that these tools are still worth using, though. When used well, they give us super-powers as information workers. Those powers can be used for good./p pThere was a time in history when access to knowledge came in the form of monthly rides on a horse into the local town where the library was located. Those times had their up-sides, but our relationship to this kind of knowledge about the world was not one of them./p pNone the less, life before Web 2.0, life before the internet, certainly had a lot to offer. The Digital Divide not withstanding, we who live in many parts of the world will find ourselves, relatively soon, with no one in our lives who remembers what the world was like before the internet. That will be a significant loss for our collective knowledge./p pPerhaps talking to people who do not live in the web, showing them what we're excited about, can be a learning experience for us as well as for them./p pstrongWhat about you? What do you like to show people first who are unfamiliar with all of this?/strong Let us know in comments; those wonder-filled moments of discovery are fun to think about.

So, here's what I'd like to do...

I'm trying to go through my music library and tag all my music as I listen to it -- right now I'm trying to tag my instrumental tracks with "instrumental" in the grouping and comments field.

thing is though its kind of a pain to have to open file info for each track everytime.

what I'd really like is a way to invoke a command in say Quicksilver (or a keyboard shortcut, or even pulldown a script from the script menu in iTunes) that appends this information for me saving me some time/hassle.

anyone know how it can be done?
