No I can’t say that Apple has now allowed Flash on their iPhones, iPods or iPads but what I can report is that there are in fact ways to get it running with applications actually available on the AppStore for free with no jailbreaking or software modifications required. Pick up either Cloud Browse or Mocha VNC Lite and you’ll be able to get this to work! Cloud Browse works by allowing you to use flash on a web browser from their own servers. Other than a little lag it works great! The only downside is that they limit the amount of time you spend on it so that other users can use the service as well. Mocha VNC Lite works by connecting to your own computer either Mac or PC and displaying your computer screen on your iDevice’s screen allowing you to control it. You’ve probably already caught onto this one! Simply open up your web browser on your computer and enjoy using flash! Of course because you’re using your own computer there is no limit on the service like Cloud Browse. The only downside is that there is no audio with Mocha VNC Lite, there is audio with Cloud Browse! I hope you enjoy exploring new media, videos and games run on flash on your iDevices. Now you don’t need to complain to Apple anymore, your device has everything it needs! Be sure to watch our full video demonstration of both of these apps!

I just found this out a few days ago. I’m sure all of you life time mac users have already heard of this but I thought I’d share it with you! On most macs the folder icon is simply a blue folder. What’s cool is that you can customize those folders icon to whatever you want. Some people remove an icon all together and keep private folders not viewable unless the user knows where it is on the desktop.

You simply get an image, and turn it into an “.icns” format so that the image is now an icon. You can do this with this program converter or you can just simply rename the image “.icns” and preview will ask you to confirm the switch. After you have done that, right click your new icon and select “Get info”. At the top left of the window you will see the your new image. Click on the image so that a blue glow appears around it. Then got to file copy or hit Command – C on your keyboard. You can now close that window. Now open the folder you want to change the same way by right clicking and selecting “Get info”. Like before you will see an image in the top left, this time being the folder icon. Select the folder icon so that a blue glow appears around it like before and this time go to file paste or Command – V on your keyboard. You should now see your new icon in the top left of the window. Now close that window. Your folder (wherever it is) should now have that image instead of the folder icon. That’s it! If you aren’t good at creating an icon or this is too complicated for you, you can go here which will take you to apple.com where you can download hundreds of custom folders! There are many tutorials on YouTube for this as well if this post was too hard to follow!
