You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

OK, I found where I read this. It was in the comments to a blog posting. Oh, and I misread it too. So, um... IGNORE ME! </Venture Brothers>

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

It turns out that you can only sync music purchased from the iTunes store back to a second computer -- this definitely wasn't clear in any of the sites reporting on yesterday's presentation, and it's pretty handwavey on the Apple site; (warning: DRM rant!) since the non-purchased stuff is the music I already frakkin' own, they really should make it at least as easy to get to that....

Oh that's unfortunate. I currently have my iTunes library spread over three hard drives. It would've been nice to have a way to sync them up without making myself mental.

More mental anyway.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Gah! I'm having trouble with Firefox since I downloaded the most recent version. First of all I lost all my bookmarks. I followed the helpful guidelines to reload them from the backup...but then they disappeared the next time I opened it.

Worse, it pops up to prevent me from sending things which are unsecured or unencrypted. Like say...to this board. Or my gmail. I can't figure out how to turn that "feature" off on my preferences. Help?

Problem the second is that I've got Global Frequency on my hard drive and it's taking up too much space. It's in mpg format which my iDVD program doesn't recognize. But I can't burn it from Real Player because I don't have the Pro version. (I think that's the issue.)

Anyway, I want to burn a copy. Any tips?

I know -- the multiple libraries thing apparently means that you can pick one when you connect, but I want to have them all presented in one view!

iTunes 7 artwork update: I just downloaded an album from emusic and iTunes automatically added the artwork. It's never done that before. Awesome! (I thought it only added artwork when importing from CD but I guess not.)

A bunch of high-quality photos of the new Nano: [link]

It looks more like an iPod Mini that's been on a starvation diet....

Hmmm, I thought I'd want an ASCOB nano but now I'm not liking that green.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

My iTunes database seems to have "lost" some of my music. It's on my iTunes harddrive, but iTunes has forgotten where it is.

  • Is there an easy way to have iTunes find the music without reconsolidating the entire library?

  • Is there an easy way to see all the songs that are missing without scrolling through my library page by page?
