Moving Files to iPhone - Movies, Music, etc. without iTunes

Having trouble with iTunes as my iMac died, and need to get some files on to the iPhone for a flight. Tried a few things, and this worked out the best.

CopyTrans Manager

It worked really nice and the only other tip is that you need to install the drivers so the software can talk to the iPhone. The steps are on their web site here. You can always install iTunes to get the drivers.

Now don't get me wrong, iTunes works well, but there are times when you need a "less sophisticated" way to do some things.

BTW.... Who is ordering a iPhone 4 on the 15ht?

Now that's a shot!

Earlier this month, a British Army sniper Corporal Craig Harrison broke the world’s record for super-accurate shooting, taking out a pair of Taliban machine gunners from a mile-and-a-half away. It was a one-in-a-million feat — one performed under “perfect” conditions, Harrison says: “no wind, mild weather, clear visibility.”

Tivo Wireless Adapters

I'm a little pissed off at Tivo. I owned a Series 2 Tivo unit and had to go out and buy an extra wireless adapter because it only worked with a small list of "certified" adapters. Can't remember what it cost me but it was not cheap.

Now I upgrade to a Series 3 and am going through the guided setup and it pukes on my wireless adapter that I bought special for the Series 2. Now I have to go out and buy their special wireless adapter.

They are getting like the cable companies with special adapters and a pricing model that could confuse a CPA!
