Bike Check: James Love’s Cotic Cascade

Ok – so i’m really not liking this ios9 on my ipad – its slowed it down a fair bit. 🙁 but it seems im stuck with it now.
In a rather desperate attempt to get things back to normal i decided to reset my ipad to factory settings and ios7 – then i could connect to itunes and do the update over the air which would allow me to connect to itunes again –
No! reseting the ipad just wiped everything off and gave me a new ipad with …… ios9!
Only now i no longer have all of my stuff on there and no way of restoring it from backup as it still cant connect to itunes – b****cks!So my options are leave everything as it is and get used to the fact my ipad isn’t very good anymore OR take the chance on updating my OS to Mavericks – so at least i will be able to restore all of my stuff back on to it (albeit with ios9)
So my question is:
If i downloaded the trial version (30 day trial) of carbon copy cloner and cloned my drive as it is to a 2tb drive and then updated my OS to Mountain Lion or Mavericks (both appear to be available on ebay).
Should i run into issues with either of these (apps and hardware not playing ball etc) could my drive and everything on it (and i mean everything) be put back exactly as it was prior to cloning it?Is this an easy thing to do?
Is it worth it?
Can i be bothered?
I dont want to go to el capitan – its too new and i dont think my ageing macbook would cope too well.
Maybe i should just leave it alone.
Feel like i’m rambling – sorry
hunterstFree MemberThanks for all the replies on this
I understand that snow leopard is old but as i was prompted to do the upgrade i kinda thought it would work – phiiiil is spot on
Having thought about it, Its not a massive deal that i cant connect to itunes.
I can use icloud to sync contacts etc and I have itunes match so music is also not an issue.My one issue so far is that i have audiobooks in itunes on my mac. As far as i can tell these aren’t available in itunes match.
So whats the best way to get audiobooks to my ipad?
As suggested i am sure there is no need these days to actually connect to my mac but its just the way i have been doing it for years.
I turned on icloud once and ended up with duplicates of contacts on my phone so promptly turned it off again.
I’m sure a few hints and tips from the helpful stw’ists will soon have me up and running.
(mutters)Still a bit miffed that apple steered me into this without any warning that it wouldn’t work though!

hunterstFree MemberThanks for the info chaps – keep it coming

hunterstFree MemberGirl at work told me she heard her 10 year old daughter singing
“She can’t sing, she can’t dance
But who cares ‘ she walks like me nana!”Brilliant
hunterstFree MemberJust shed a tear for you there matey.
Can only imagine how you must be feeling.
Really hope everything turns out ok.
Best wishes to you, your boy and your family.hunterstFree MemberI stopped being nekked in front of my daughter when she started to sing a song she made up – the lyrics were “willy willy willy, willy willy willy”
She was 4.I feel quite uncomfortable even now if she catches me getting dressed and says something like “ooh dad i saw your little bumbum – its so cute”
She’s 7 now.
She’s a rather strange and funny little person at times 😆hunterstFree MemberWe did.
Just found out yesterday….but boss has now said that because nobody said thank you to him by 12.30 today, we are now working a normal day with no early finish.
Oh how i laughed – just made himself look a complete dick in about 30 secs there 🙄
hunterstFree MemberTin soldier is one of my all time top tunes from a great band.
Steve marriott looks cool as .. here – weller keeps the marriott flame alive with his style of playing and was obviously a huge fan.pp arnold doing a fine job on backing vocals and was something of a babe too. 😀
rip Mac
hunterstFree MemberI use an app called photosync
Install on both ipad and phone
Open app on both and copy pics to ipad over wifi
I also use it to move pics to mac (install the desktop version on mac)
hunterstFree MemberThe Honda CB bikes are pretty good for modding.
Anything like the CB450 500 550 or 750 would be good. Depends if you want twin cylinder or 4 cylinder – although the 750 could possibly be a bit big or heavy.Here’s my CB550K
hunterstFree MemberIt’s not how funny the todger slapper thinks it is, it’s how demeaning and frightening the victim thinks it is that matters.

The law doesn’t make any sense when one of these two got the same sentence as dick slapper
Surely dick slapper should have been heavily fined and made to do community work of the victims choice and the nasty xxxxs above should have been given 7 years or more. I’m sure the victims here must be scared to leave the house now.
hunterstFree MemberBut what if the OP is married?
Then its a hand shandy and a jazz woodbine 😀
hunterstFree MemberUsed yorkshire windows about 10 years ago and they were just about ok.
But used a company called allweather roofline (from doncaster i think) 3 or 4 years ago and they were AWFUL – ruined one of our carpets (which cost them £500). They also fitted gutters for us which leaked like a sieve. Had to get them out about 5 times to sort the gutters. Never again – worst company in the world to deal with. 👿
hunterstFree MemberMan walks into a bar
As he passes the fag machine it says “you’re fxxkin ugly and i’ve been screwing your wife”
When he gets to the bar the peanuts say – “that’s a lovely suit and you’ve got really nice hair”
Barman tells him the fag machines out of order and the peanuts are complimentary.
Badooom – tish
hunterstFree MemberYou say: What’s the difference between a blow job and a chicken drumstick?
She says: i don’t know
You say: Fancy a picnic?
hunterstFree MemberThanks for all the info.
Will have a look at into those mentioned
Cheers
hunterstFree MemberAlso. Things fall off shelves. A lot.
Good news is your local diy store will sell a thing called a spirit level.
Now, this wont confirm the number of ghosties in your house but it will almost certainly help with the above.hunterstFree MemberSorry to tell you this but..No such thing as ghosts.
You have an ill fitting latch – get thee to B&Q lad
hunterstFree MemberI was 16 and out on my Suzuki AP50 – drop bars, loud pipe (like a bee in a jar looking back)
I was in slow, crawling traffic going through town.
Oh yes, the 2 birds coming towards knew i was the man and i gave them both the eye … right before i did a spectacular endo on the car in front which had stopped.
I quickly got myself together steered round the car, called him an arxxhole (for doing nothing wrong) and disappeared in a cloud of 2 stroke haze.
What a tool.
hunterstFree MemberWhat a cowardly cxxx
I hope the xxxx has something really bad happen to him in jail.
hunterstFree MemberGot to disagree with some of this
Moved to wakefield about 11 years ago where we had a nice barn conversion in newmillerdam which is a really nice area – as is sandal etc
We then needed something bigger and bought a 5 bed semi in St Johns about 7 years ago – st johns is pretty close to the city centre but we have not had one bit of trouble in all the time we’ve been there. Great neighbours and our daughter goes to what is one of the best schools in west yorkshire.
The city has changed massively since we moved there – we have seen huge investment in the centre.
A new shopping centre was opened a year or 2 back. The hepworth gallery also opened around the same time.
This year has seen a new library and massive development of the area around the college and courts.
The new westgate train station has also just been completed and there are projects going on to tidy up the centre all the time. The fountains at the bottom of westgate etc (was really funny when the local yoof put washing up liquid in it not long after opening)There is a lot of money being invested in wakefield, which is great because for years it did suffer as the very poor relation to leeds.
I am sure there is still a long way to go but it seems to be working.
I commute to leeds every day by car which takes me 20 mins – though it can sometimes get a bit sticky on the way home at the moment due to upgrading the motorway to a smart motorway (whatever that is)
One point i do agree on is – the riding is shite. But sling the bike on the car and off you go. York is half an hour away – sheffield 20 mins
Got to admit i dont really know the areas mentioned by others but there are holes in every city if you look for them.
hunterstFree MemberHmm that’s a very good point.
I’ve just phoned them to ask why they are advertising genuine oem screens when they clearly state that they are not available.
Their answer?
He put the phone down on me 😀
So i called back suggesting that maybe we had a connection problem.
Nope.He put the phone down on me 😀
It would not be at all amusing if anyone else was to call with the same question.
Obviously in light of this – I DO NOT recommend this company at all so please ignore my first post
hunterstFree MemberThese guys are in Horsforth.
Had my iphone speaker fixed by them and it seems they also do ipad screen repairs. £100 genuine parts or £50 for replica
Hope this helps

hunterstFree MemberBecause when you find a spider and catch it, feel it between your fingers and give it a little stroke (they don’t mind this). You will find the top of its abdomen is quite soft.
😯 – shudders
I hate spiders and the thought of stroking a soft abdomen makes me cringe
hunterstFree MemberAh..sorry forgot that bit – have a look on the website you never know.
Sure there must be something similar for your phone – somewhere
hunterstFree MemberDitched my wallet about 3 years ago.
Now i just carry this with 2 cards and a couple of notes wrapped around the cards
Got it from ikonic edge (new zealand i think)
It arrived quick and it still looks great after 3 years – the leather is nice and worn.
Can get them cheaper elsewhere – but will definitely buy again from here when i need to .Its kept my phone scratch free too, although i do have thin film protectors on the front and back.
hunterstFree Memberhe’d be spinning in his grave if he were in it
Hmmm…..possibly not
