# On Friday, I received a Belkin Washable Mouse. I've been wanting this since last summer. It was supposed to ship at the end of August, but I never saw it available until last weekend. And I guess it's popular. They're sold out at present. Birth photos and a little more text at imacpr0n.com/mouse.

Shiny New Airport Extreme

Tuesday, January 8, 2008

Yesterday, I received a shiny new Airport Extreme and the family edition of iLife. Unboxing pr0n is at imacpr0n.com/airport. It took 10 minutes after removal from the packaging to get it plugged in, set up, and working. And it's working good so far. Time will tell of its reliability. And I haven't yet tried plugging a porinter or disk drive into its USB port.

Missing iPhone Photos Found

Monday, January 7, 2008

# I've had a problem recently getting the pictures on my iPhone to be recognized by iPhoto. It doesn't think there are any pictures to import. I found how to fix it today. Open the "Image Capture" application from your "/Applications" folder. Select the "Browse Devices..." item from the "Devices" menu. Click on your iPhone. Uncheck and recheck the "Connected" text box in that row. The name will change from your iPhone's name to "Digital Still Camera" while disconnected. Presto, your photos should appear in the Image Capture window for your iPhone, and in iPhoto.
