I hate the new look. There is how to change iTunes back to the old look completely!

http://erambert.me/itunes-109/

If you just want to change the icon.

1. Go to your itunes app on applications folder
2. Right click > Show package contents > Resources
3. Drop a .icns file and replace the file (Back up the original .icns just in case)

Here are some places to find other .icns files!

I have written a formal letter to singtel reporting the problem as well as working with them to narrow down the problem. They have been very responsive to my emails and took only 1 day to reply.

The solution to solving the lack to reception seems to switching off 3G and using the 2G network as highlighted by a few of my friends.

this can be done easily on the iphone. settings->general->network->use 3g OFF

I and a few others have tried this and it seems to work, the trade off is that you dont get 3G speeds when using the internet on your phone. You can switch back on 3G when you leave SMU.

Possible Problem

The increased popularity of singtel as well as the use of 3G enabled phones with 12 GB plans seems to be putting the 3G network of singtel at the breaking point. Especially in the area of SMU where there is a disproportionately large number of 3G users. The solution works as the 2G and 3G network exist separately and switching from a crowded network to a less crowded one will definitely improve performance.

The important question is  how long will singtel take to rectify the problem and will other service providers experience the same problem once users start to use the 3G network infrastructure more heavily.

Thanks to SMUMacness for the Guide!

1. Create or modify a exisiting exchange account on MS entourage.
2. Use the following settings
   
   
3. Done!

At first i thought it was the iPhone antennagate problem that has somehow infected my iPhone. But soon i noticed these following features of the problem.

Symptoms

1. Areas of the library would bring my reception to NIL
2. Some SRs would also do the same.
3. Sometimes calls cant be made with “FULL” signal.
4. SMSs would be delayed up to a few hours even after being in locations with better reception.

Observations

1. Other people too had the same problem.
2. They were using other brands of handphones and other versions of the iPhone.
3. It seems to have only happened starting last week and this week.
4. Only Singtel users seems to be affected.
5. The rest observed symptoms described above.
6. Even after user a bumper case, my problems were not solved.
7. Only areas in SMU are affected.

Does anyone else observe the same or other problems with connection recently?

Actually a few of my friends discovered this! Thanks to Christina Boon!

The same way doesnt work 100% with entourage (you cant send mail)

Step 1:

Create a new imap email with the following settings

Things to note are the email address and the username MUST be your FULL SMU EMAIL ADDRESS

Step 2:

Create a new SMTP server for outgoing mail with the following settings. You are done. (Ignore the For use in school smtp entry)

You are DONE!

Thanks to Chery Chiang for this!

1. Create a MS Exchange Email Account
2. Use the following settings below (Note that your username must be your FULL email adress)

Well as usual CIT or rather IITS is continuing to ignore the mac presence in smu. Their guide to set up entourage on a mac for the new email server was redirected to this site. I am not sure how long they can ignore and not support macs. SMU claims to be a school that is up to date with innovation and all IT savvy with their projector rooms and what have you not but they refuse to help and support mac users at all.

Due to that fact that they dont upgrade seniors with this account, i cant test any settings on it. I call out to the new mac users who manage to connect to entourage or mail with the new live email to let either me or Macness know so that we can publicize it.

We will prove that the mac community will support ourselves better than they can ever do.

It seems that a simple substitute of the account name will work but i doubt it will be that simple.
