I think my problem with Apple began when, without any flipping explanation at all, the latest version of their operating system required me, by default, to start scrolling upwards instead of downwards. Or was it the other way around? I can’t remember. I don’t care. I don’t want to care. This is why I pay [...]

iTunes with iCloud: Finally the ‘frustration’ ends
For years I’ve been rather frustrated every time I think about iTunes. I’ve got 40GB free on my 1,000GB drive. Yes, I’ve got a *dedicated* iTunes hard disk in my main Mac Pro. It’s flipping ridiculous. Buy a 2GB movie for £9 and unfortunately it’s now your problem to manage the file. I want to [...]
Orange Thursdays Film To Go: Have you downloaded today’s movie?
Somebody somewhere at Everything Everywhere needs a big, big pat on the back. The deal that Orange has done with Apple to give away free movie rentals every Thursday (full info) will have cost the company money, no doubt. However it appears to be paying huge dividends. Everybody who subscribes to the iTunes newsletter — [...]
Orange Film To Go: Free iTunes movies on Thursday – genius move
It’s not often that I feel ready to pronounce good news in the mobile industry, especially when it comes to mobile operators. For the most part, mobile operators collectively have their heads in the sand. Frankly, it’s been utterly depressing to watch. Oh, I know you’re not all bad. Collectively, you’re utter shit. Individually, though [...]
Apple’s 10 billionth download? Paper Glider from UK developer, Neon Play!
The eagerly awaited winners of the 10 billionth download from iTunes App Store are finally revealed. Gail Davis from Orpington was the lucky downloader of “Paper Glider”, developed by Neon Play – a start-up UK developer. Gail Davis of Orpington in Kent was browsing for apps over the weekend, when she stumbled upon “Paper Glider” [...]
The Beatles arrive on iTunes and nobody gives a toss
There was no small amount of excitement around the marketplace this week in anticipation of the ‘iTunes Announcement’. Many I spoke to were hoping to hear about the much fabled iTunes-in-the-cloud service. Me too. I’ve had enough dicking about with my own media files. I have multiple machines, multiple devices and I am aghast that [...]
What’s the largest # of iPhones/iPads activated on an iTunes account?
Following on from my post the other day where I asked if anyone knew the limit of iPhone/iPad activations per iTunes account, it seems that reader MAQ_Ecosse has managed to activate 28 iPhones on one account. In practice, that means that MAQ’s organisation only needs one iTunes account and — by definition — only has [...]
How many iPhones/iPads can I activate on one account?
Another question for you, dear reader. This time it’s about iPhones and iPads. Right now I have 5 iPhones and one iPad each syncing beautifully. I plug them into my Mac Pro and sync. Job done, all is fine. If I buy an application on my iPhone 4, and then try and download it on [...]
iTunes lack of cloud support = Shit
Last night I blew 7 quid on an Above & Beyond trance album. I find good trance music useful when I’m working on extended projects that need focused attention. I bought the album on my iPhone. I listed to some of the tracks immediately and marvelled at the technological advances that made the experience possible. [...]
AppsFire has had enough; withdraws from iTunes App Store
AppsFire, the app discovery service has decided to pull it’s app from the iTunes App Store citing quite a few different issues, most notably the fact that it took months for the app store team to respond to some of their queries. I like the AppsFire concept, I really do. Although it is particularly complicated [...]
Spotify vs iTunes vs Omnifone
Last night I wanted to listen to a song. I’d heard it on the radio and decided I’d ‘get it’. Normally that means a quick search on iTunes and then a ‘buy’ click. Then I need to wait a few seconds for it to actually download. Last night I had done the iTunes search, located [...]
