Friday, April 6, 2012 at 5:06PM One of the biggest pains when it comes to synching your ios products is having multiple accounts or sharing a single iTunes account. iLounge has a Q&A that is helpful in understanding how to use and what to think about when setting up your accounts.
The discussion includes both iCloud and iTunes considerations. Hope this helps.
Friday, April 6, 2012 at 4:59PM Welcome to the party Mac owners. This trojan horse program “Flashback” surfaced last last year is reported by several sources to have created a botnet on more than 600,000 Macs around the world, with more than half of them in the US alone.
Apple released a Java Security update on Tuesday to resolve the vulnerabilities that the malware is exploiting, but not before a number of Mac users had been hit with the malicious software. Oracle first issued a fix for the vulnerability in February as reported by AppleInsider.
CNNTech has a Mashable article here that shows you how to find out if your Mac has the Flashback Trojan. After determining whether you are infected or not be sure you install the latest Apple security update to fix the vulnerability.
Wednesday, April 4, 2012 at 7:34AM There are big changes happening over at CNET Video with the promise of new formats and shows and methods of accessing their video podcasts. If you are like me and you obtain most of your news through the internet, you probably have accessed podcasts from many sources. While many podcasts are available LIVE, I very seldom access them that way. I mostly subscribe to those podcasts that interest me and watch/listen to them at some future point in time. Whether I am sitting at my desk at home or at work, or using my phone or tablet to access and view or listen to them, I am typically doing so while I am doing some other process. In fact, at this moment I am at home on my computer, jumping through RSS feeds, listening to Windows Weekly and writing this blog entry all at the same time. I am constantly finding myself multitasking in this manner to make the most of each moment. I am looking forward to see what CNET is going to come out with in the next few months.
