The Chronic Dev Team released in the last days the untethered jailbreak solution for our iPhone 4.

I’ve already jailbreaked my iPhone and really works perfectly.

In some sites and forums people are saying that you must jailbreak the iOS 4.2.1 with greenpois0n and then install Cydia with redsn0w.

I must say that is not true, I only used greenpois0n and with the loader app that is installed with the jailbreak, managed to install Cydia.

Greenpois0n is available for Mac OS and Windows and you can get it from the links below.

Greenpois0n for Mac OS: Download

Já não é a primeira vez que apanho ‘calinadas’ nas notícias publicadas mas com esta até fiquei confuso.

Vejam a legenda que foi colocada na fotografia à direita, “Roubini prevê que Portugal siga o mesmo rumo de Portugal”.

A sua musicalidade, pelo menos que tenha conhecimento, não se compara a nada feito até ao momento…

O seguinte vídeo é simplesmente fascinante e combina na perfeição com música… para quê falar mais… vejam por vocês mesmos…

Keka can archive files in 7z, Zip, Tar, Gzip, Bzip2.

And can unarchive the following formats: RAR, 7z, Lzma, Zip, Tar, Gzip, Bzip2, ISO, EXE, CAB, PAX, ACE (PPC).

To archive some files all you have to do is drag the files in the keka’s icon on the Dock.

To unarchive is although very simple just open the package and keka will unarchive it for you.

Apple yesterday has release iTunes 9.0.3!

About iTunes 9.0.3

iTunes 9.0.3 provides a number of important bug fixes, including:

  • iTunes no longer ignores your “Remember password for purchases” setting.
  • Addresses problems with syncing some Smart Playlists and Podcasts with iPod.
  • Resolves a problem recognizing when iPod is connected.
  • Addresses issues that affect stability and performance.

iTunes 9 comes with many new features and improvements, including:

  • An improved look and feel, including a new Column Browser for easily browsing your artists or albums, movies, TV shows, and more.
  • iTunes Store has a brand new look, with improved navigation for quick and easy exploration.
  • iTunes LP and iTunes Extras create unique experiences that feature exclusive interviews, videos, photos, and more — available with select album and movie purchases on the iTunes Store.
  • Home Sharing helps you manage your family’s iTunes collection between computers in your home. iTunes can automatically transfer new purchases, or you can choose just the items you want.
  • Genius Mixes are created for you by iTunes and play songs from your library that go great together.
  • iPod and iPhone syncing now allows you to organize your iPhone and iPod touch home screens directly in iTunes. Syncing is now also more flexible, allowing you to sync individual artists, genres, or TV show and Podcast episodes.
  • iTunes U items are now organized into their own section in your iTunes library.
  • Sync with iPod nano (5th generation), iPod classic (Fall 2009), and iPod touch (Fall 2009).
  • iTunes 9 also includes many other improvements, such as HE-AAC encoding and playback, more flexibility with Smart Playlists rules, simpler organization of your media files inside an iTunes Media folder, and more.

I think in version 9.0.2 of iTunes it is possible to change the grid view background to dark, instead of all that white! I’ve only discovered that on this new version!

If you want to change the grid view to the darker background, go to iTunes -> Preferences->General Tab and select Dark on ‘Grid View’.

Windows 7 has one great feature which is to manage the positioning of the windows on our desktop. If you move the window to the left it will resize it to fill the left half of the screen, to the right… it will fill the right half of the screen and to the bottom it will fill the entire screen.

I use Windows 7 at work but on my MacBook sometimes I miss that ‘Windows’ feature.

Now, there is a solution called Cinch.

Cinch gives you simple, mouse-driven window management by defining the left, right, and top edges of your screen as ‘hot zones’. Drag a window until the mouse cursor enters one of these zones then drop the window to have it cinch into place. Cinching to the left or right edges of the screen will resize the window to fill exactly half the screen, allowing you to easily compare two windows side-by-side (splitscreen). Cinching to the top edge of the screen will resize the window to fill the entire screen (fullscreen). Dragging a window away from its cinched position will restore the window to its original size.

from Cinch homepage

The application costs $7, which I think is quite good.

Download: Cinch

Price: $7

Apple EFI Update Version 1.4

Apple EFI Update Version 1.4

About MacBook EFI Firmware Update 1.4

This update eliminates the noise made by the optical disk drive during system startup and wake from sleep on MacBook computers. When installation is complete, please run Software Update again, and install SuperDrive Firmware Update 3.0 (…)

by Apple

After the EFI Update and the Super Firmware Update installation, I still get the noise from the optical disc during the boot, but when the computer wake up from sleep I don´t listen that annoying sound.

Is there anyone with the same bug?
