  • Breaking: Reports of 1.1.1-to-1.0.2 iPhone downgrades trickling in

    Filed under: , ,

    Remember that bit where I said upgrading from 1.1.1 to 1.0.2 was a one-way trip? Looks like I spoke prematurely. Tonight, reports are trickling in about successful 1.1.1-to-1.0.2 iPhone firmware downgrades using this method described at the "iPhone Devteam" wiki, which relies on a combination of firmware-fu and the INDependence software. TUAW reader skwasha tipped us off to an ongoing conversation at the hackint0sh forums that got the ball rolling on this.

    I have not yet been able to confirm this downgrade so let us know in the comments if the method worked for you or not.

    Update: After downgrading your iPhone will most likely not work as a phone. But you'll be able to use it with third party apps and WiFi. Developing.

    Update 2: More detailed instructions here at Nate True's blog.

    Update 3: This method is now called "pulling a kmac" after the original poster who figured this out.

    Update 4: If you're getting the "Please Connect to iTunes" thing, you'll need to set some environmental variables. You can do this with either iBrickr/iphoneinterface or with iPHUC. Instructions for both at Nate's blog.

  • Discover More Menubar Goodies

    As I believe is useful from time to time, LifeHacker is calling for your menubar submissions. Take a screenshot of your menubar, explain all the apps you’ve got running there, and submit to the good folks at LifeHacker.

    My suggestion would be to keep track of that thread for the results of the submissions. I think it’s the best way to find great new utilities and applications that you may have somehow overlooked in the past. I’m willing to bet everyone finds at least one item listed that they weren’t previously aware of.

  • My New Vintage Hardware - Can Leopard be installed on an 800MHz machine?

    iMac G4I have a vintage 800MHz iMac G4. There, I’ve said it, and wow, does that sound strange and unpleasant to me. I love my iMac - remember those commercials where it stuck its ‘tongue’ out at the guy on the sidewalk? - and I was very excited to hear, initially, that I could put Leopard on it. For a lot of people, these original-looking iMacs were their first sip of the Apple kool-aid: exciting, different, classy, with a form that looked like nothing else around as well as being ridiculously useful. (Pivoting, tilting monitor - yes please!) The version I have, when it first came out, was the top model for the iMac, and ones like it still command a solid 200 to 400$US on eBay.

    So when Apple decided that Leopard would only officially support 867Mhz or higher machines now, I was heartbroken. I’m not alone here, either. The owners of the 800MHz flavors of iBook, PowerMac G4 (Quicksilver and Titanium), and eMac also now are the proud possessors of officially-vintage hardware.  These are not, for the most part, considered to be slow or obsolete machines; granted, they’re not as screamingly fast as the new Macs, but they’re still reliable and steady.

    However, I noted that Apple made this decision because the installer ran too slowly, which makes me wonder. Also, earlier dev builds ran on machines like these, if slowly. If I’m willing to let it sit for an hour or so, can I still install Leopard on my iMac? I know I’m not the only one that’ll be wondering, either.

  • Mac 101: Typing accents, remember the option key

    Filed under:



    Apple has a nice tip up this week on typing letters with non-English accent marks. As they point out you can use the Character Palette, but there's a much easier way that many of us often don't remember to use via the option key. To type an accent you just need to hit an option key combo then the letter that you want to take the accent. So for example, to type an umlaut hit option+u then the u to get ü. To type an acute it's option+e then e to get é; for a grave it's option+` then a to get à. The Apple tip lists all of these handy key combos plus a bunch more.

    If you often find yourself typing accented characters you'll end up saving a lot of time by memorizing these combos. And even if you don't remember them exactly, you can probably figure out the one you need if you just experiment with the option key.
