Redownload your purchased music from iTunes.

By in Apple, OSX

Not sure if this is new or not but I haven’t notice it before so here goes: A couple of months ago, Apple added the “Purchased” option to the iTunes store. That option gives you a list of all the apps and books you’ve purchased in the past and gives you an easy way to [...]

By in Apple

Since a week or so, the home button on my iPhone 4 is been acting very strange. From time to time, it does not react when I press it. Pressing it once, twice, 30 times in a row, nothing. So I reboot the device (have you tried turning it off and on again?) and it [...]

The Quest for an iPad.

By in Apple, Internet, Technology

At first, I wasn’t all that excited about the iPad, ‘it’s just a bit iPod Touch’ and all. But ever since I held one and used it for a while, I was totally sold. (I guess a thank you to Filip and Sara is in order ) And I wasn’t alone, Davy and Manuel were [...]
