huh ... nope, hadn't thought of that - I figured since it was what came with the iPad, it was what you had to use with the iPad (sorry ... I've never used anything Apple before I got this ... mostly I use it to send photos of my manicures to a couple of friends)
I like pancakes 'cause they're stackable. Ooo, and waffles 'cause you can put things in the little holes if you wanted to.

Have you restarted the iPad? Hold down the power and home button until it reboots.

um ... which is the home button?

Ann, that's a ferret.
The button you use to close apps. Hold them down together until the screen goes dark or, if you want to be particularly sure, until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

Thanks! I'll give it a try (I SAID this is the only Apple device I've ever used).

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I literally *just* heard about that on my commute home. It is most excellent news unless you happen to be on a TWC block without an Apple TV.
(I honestly haven't decided yet if I'm going to pay for it or just keep trading with my parents - they have my Netflix login and I have their HBOGo. So it's not *exactly* stealing...)

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Ok. So.
I bought the Drobo that I should have bought back when Drew first recommended it. It's slick. I love it. All the basic stuff is up and running smoothly, including the mac side of automated backup with time machine in its own little shares.
Now I want to automate the pc side of backup, so I am installing Crashplan on the NAS as a headless computer as per these directions: [link]
It is at this point that I need to confess that I am not enough of a geek. All the terminal stuff is getting past me. I have successfully installed dropbear for the ssh. I have installed all the dependencies. I have installed Crashplan on the NAS and on the client computers. I have modified the ui.properties, and the NAS is listening on the appropriate ports.
But I am stuck at the port forwarding. I can't figure out how to do this bit:
ssh -L 4200:localhost:4243 @192.0.2.2
It doesn't find -L. Is it because I'm using dropbear? Do I need to use openSSH? I feel like this is probably a simple thing and I just am a novice at ssh stuff.

Is it a bad sign when my phone starts telling me that my charging cable that plugs into the wall is not a supported device? I was rather hoping to keep the old phone for just music when I upgraded.
