But they won't block pron sites.

Good. I prefer my internets uncensored please. Thanks.

So I'm now shopping for tablet pc's and netbooks.

Good idea, because you [i]definitely[/i] won't be able to get any porn on them 😯 ❓ plus they will be far more prone to viruses and malware from said porn sites.

Leaving porn on show products? Genius idea.

I bricked mine last night, so I updated iTunes to 10.0 and deleted the software update to force it to download it again.

This worked, but it didn't restore my apps at all - I copied over all the ones I used and have halved the number of screens I need!

The "Restore" button erases everything and loads the OS from scratch.

But once it is complete you should then be able to select "Restore from Backup.." on the phone icon:

Which restores all your apps, settings, emails, texts, contacts etc.

He may not be proud, but he will have enough money spare to buy either a new bike, or a year's subscription to "Anti-Apple Smugness Magazine" with the money saved not buying a Mac.

I mean... 1300 notes for a macbook pro, when the equivalent Windows laptop can be had for 800? Shiny is not worth that much.

Loads of new iphoners at my place recently. It's still slick but interface starting to look a bit dated I reckon.

So you'd be happy having you 9 year old see hard core porn? Lovely father!

Not particularly, but likewise I wouldn't expect Apple to be responsible for the content of the internet.

I'm not very sure what you expected them to do. You complained to a member of staff who said it [i]"its unfortunate and that was it"[/i]. Which it was. Seems like a pretty reasonable response to me.

I dunno. They probably should have gouged their eyes out or something.....

...well that or given Admiralable a free Macbook Pro.

To be honest I think the apology sufficed.*

*I wasn't be serious about them giving him a MBP DD.

A decent apology would have sufficed. Not an off the cuff "well it's unfortunate".

Maybe book an appointment at the [s]Genius[/s] Grovelling Bar?

BTW, with and education discount, a MBP isn't much more than an equivalent PC, and much nicer. 8)

Hard resetting your iPhone can speed it up for a while. Here’s how to do it:

* Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time, hold both for about 5 seconds
* Ignore the typical ‘Slide to power off message’ and continue holding both buttons until the iPhone shuts itself off
* When your iPhone 3G resets itself you can stop holding the buttons, it takes about 10 seconds to hard reset the iPhone

[b]** Update **[/b]

I went to see the "Genius" today at the Apple Store. He confirmed the problem and gave me a brand new replacement 3GS on the spot, despite the fact I was about a month out of my warranty.

Yay Apple! I'm sorry I ever questioned you. My faith was weak. All hail Jobs!

Even better, we then went to O2, traded in the missus' old 3G and got a shiny new 4G. So I'll get that and she can have the new 3GS. 😀 😀 😀

Did they say what the problem was at all?

Nope. I asked, but just randomly ****ed.

The guy just tried the update on his Mac, got the same error I got, shrugged and went to get a new one 😀

So in your esteemed opinion he was not really a genius 😉

I'd happily call him Jehovah if it means a new phone for free 😀

Look, I don't think it should be a sin, just for saying "Jehovah".
