  1. Re:Apple on Apple Has Removed Dash from the App Store (kapeli.com) · · Score: 1

    I cant remember off the top of my head how many you are allowed to create (or if we were even told) - but theres a "so many per hour/day" rule in place. So "normal" usage should lock you out, but enrollment days etc would.

    I dont work in IT (and always hated Macs/OSX) - so dont take the fact I did the courses and got certified as anything other than I had to do it (for my previous job). But you are quite right, they dont take it seriously - we had a whole bit on how we should have an iTunes enrollment day to get around the problem (so shifting the issue to IT depts, rather than Apple).

    When I did my Apple certifications, I was told about this. Basically its to stop people bulk creating iTunes accounts, education are supposed to get in touch with Apple and get their IP whitelisted for 30 days when you are enrolling new students.

    The other work around was apparently to go to an Apple store, they are all whitelisted for obvious reasons.

    Are you still using WEP? You would think people would be more concerned about security with all the hacks every 15 minutes actually getting media attention.

    I actually agree with you, just not the whole "I have been here longer than you" tone of his reply. I have been here even longer than the submitter and contributed a hell of a lot less. How long anyone has been here means nothing to how much you can or cannot have contributed - therefore didn't need including in his reply and only made him sound like a douchebag when doing so.

    How many submissions/comments and how short/long his UID is doesn't make you more literate than him.

    If its working fine for what she wants right now, what's to fix? It will continue to work as it does right now, as she is singing from the rooftops about how its important - surely keeping it how it is today will be fine.

    You mean those optional updates that you don't have to install? oh, ok then.

    So do not update your iOS. Keep your iDevice how it is right now. If its that important to you, treat it as a non up-datable speech tool. It will work as it does right now...

  13. But she still can... on Apple Yanks Toddler's Speech-Enabling App · · Score: 5, Informative

    But its still on her device - so she still can do all those things. If she syncs her phone/ipad with itunes, she even has her own back up of the app and can reinstall it just fine.

    $50 was very generous. Company I work for is part of the MAR program (Microsoft Authorized Refurbisher) and I can assure you, a license costs no where near that much. We get a refund on the existing license on the machine, then the refurb license costs next to nothing vs retail.

    Are you implying most users wouldn't click "OK" to download "something" required to play all the free movies they think they have just got?

    And AV is going to pickup what exactly? the fact the DRM is sending you to a website? sorry, thats a legit use. If you are talking about the malware itself, then you should know it changes daily.
