A few days ago, we posted our Mac jailbreak tutorial for iOS 8.2 beta 1 and 2. That tutorial used the PP Jailbreak tool for the Mac. For Windows users, things are slightly different. Windows users get to use the TaiG tool. At the end of the day, both tools are geared towards the same goal—allowing you to easily jailbreak iOS 8.2 beta 1 and 2.
If you've been trying to jailbreak iOS 8.2 beta 1 or 2 with TaiG 1.3.0 over the last couple of days, you may have encountered an issue. An error that says: "Can't find Apple driver, please download and install iTunes" has been causing all sorts of problems for would be jailbreakers.
iTunes may indeed already be installed, but it's the latest version of iTunes for 64-bit Windows machines that's causing the error to begin with. Perhaps you've tried to downgrade your copy of iTunes unsuccessfully. Or maybe you've just given up on trying to jailbreak your iPhone on a Windows machine. Well, don't give up just yet, because we have a solution inside.
Although I've long admired the iPad-centric work ethic of individuals like MacStories' Federico Viticci, I could never fully commit to working from my iPad due to the perceived amount of steps needed to get things done. Yes, it's possible, but I've always thought it was easier to work from my MacBook Pro.
With that said, I certainly admire anyone who can successfully pull it off, as Viticci has obviously done. There's even a slight bit of jealousy there because he's figured out well in advance how not to be ball-and-chained to a traditional desktop.
With iOS 8, a lot of that has changed. iOS is now more open than ever and users can do some powerful things with said openness. Case and point: Workflow—the automation app that opens up the door to automation newbs like myself. Yes, much automation could be done prior to Workflow—apps like Pythonista and Editorial proved as much—but Workflow is venturing into brand new territory. Not only is it arguably the most powerful automation tool available for iOS, it makes implementing automation accessible to mere mortals.
In this post, I'd like to show off one of the workflows that I'm extremely proud of. To be honest, this post is sort of a stealth-brag, but that's okay. When you see this workflow in action, you'll understand why.
Learn how to restart the menu bar on your Mac if it’s frozen, unresponsive, or malfunctioning, and clicking the icons doesn’t trigger the intended action.
This is the second to last entry into my podcasting basics series. In part I, I talked about some of the preliminary steps needed before starting a podcast. In part II, I discussed the hardware that we use to record shows like Let’s Talk iOS and Let’s Talk Jailbreak. In part III, I broke down the software used. Now that you have a good idea of what hardware and software that we use, along with the basic overall methodology, let's talk about starting the actual recording.
Learn how to change the default Finder folder on your Mac to streamline your workflow and enhance productivity.
Every Mac that Apple ships, sans the Mac mini, comes with an iSight camera embedded in the bezel at the top of the display. If my memory serves me correctly, Apple's computers were one of the first to really popularize the standardization of built-in cameras.
I'm probably not alone when I say that I rarely, if ever, use my MacBook Pro's iSight camera. In fact, it's become more of a worry to me when thinking about the potential hacking and privacy concerns. I'm far from a tin foil hat wearer, but I have to be honest and admit that the thought has crossed my mind before... you know, the one where hackers view my iSight camera unbeknown to me.
With all of that said, wouldn't it be nice if you could disable your Mac camera with a simple software tweak? Inside, I'll show you how to do just that.
Learn about three ways to restart or relaunch Finder on your Mac in case it hangs, stops responding, or fails to refresh your files with the latest changes.
It may not be obvious, but your Mac has the option to cut a file and paste it to a new location in Finder. In this tutorial, we’ll show you four different ways to use cut and paste files on a Mac.
This is the third entry into my podcasting basics series. In part I, I discussed some of the preliminary steps needed before starting a podcast. In part II, I talked about the hardware that I personally use to record shows like Let's Talk iOS and Let's Talk Jailbreak.
After going through the preliminary conceptualizing and picking out the hardware that works for your particular scenario, it's time to mate the hardware with the right software. Software choices for producing podcasts can vary significantly, but I've come up with a formula that works for me.
Of course, your decision to use a piece of software may boil down to your particular needs. For example, if you're not a Mac user, then many, if not all of your software will differ. That being said, the basic recording techniques that I employ will more or less be the same, and can be used regardless of the software you decide on using. In this post, I break down the software that I use for recording and producing our podcasts.
