Slightly off topic, but I'm looking for something that needs my phone to be there for me to log in when I turn the mac on, similar to this, but not something that locks when I move away and the computer is on.

This might be a silly question but...

Overall, this seems to have received positive feedback.

Are you by any chance an engineer?

This one keeps the reflection too, which is weird.

What advice do people have for a CV cover letter. I've been told to basically explain why you're good for the job, and why you like the company. I've also been told to keep it short and to the point. How can I mix both of these without seeming like I'm grovelling and sending the same generic letter to each company.

I know in Britain companies have to be careful about hiring based upon prejudices. Therefore, they often throw away any CV's that include a picture, because they don't want to seem biased depending on what the person looks like.

Try at 3 AM when everyone is sleeping, or 3 PM when everyone is at work.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. Firstly, as modernape says, back up your hard drive first using either Carbon Copy Cloner or with an external hard drive and Time Machine on OSX. Then just run through the Boot Camp procedure, making sure you print out the instructions first.

Yeah last month the phone wouldn't unlock using the button on the RHS. It had full battery, and once it was unlocked would run fine. Similarly, it wouldn't lock when I wanted it to. It seems to be a known issue with them ([goo.gl]) although I have the 2.3.6 OS, when it should have been fixed. To gain access to the…

Thanks for the advice. I've tried messing with my phone in the past (to little avail), and I think my best bet is to wait for the OTA update.

My apologies, I bought the Nexus S specifically because it ran the stock OS, and would be one of the first phones to get the updates to it. The horizontal scrolling feature is one that I've seen on every other Android phone that I've seen (mostly friends and family), and I'd assumed that it was a standard and popular…

edit: comment repeated

On the Nexus S, instead of having many different screens in the app drawer, each with about 20 apps in (as in phones made by Samsung, HTC, Sony etc), there was a single screen with all your apps in, which scrolled down with a gesture, as you would scroll on a web page to get to the bottom of it. All apps were ordered…

What's people's favourite new feature in ICS, over gingerbread?

The stylish look of the LG face winking as he did his work apparently wasn't a problem for a student with a bad back. I'd have covered it somehow but each to their own i suppose

Hi, I too have the Nexus S on T-Mobile, but on Gingerbread. One thing I really like about it is the endless scroll that other Androids just don't have.

After reading your last post about standing desks, my roommate switched his normal desk to standing by just putting a flatscreen TV box on top of his existing desk. The box was about 7" deep and so worked perfectly. It also still had all the polystyrene inside so it was strong enough to hold his 21" iMac. It cost him…

Thanks both Josh Lewis and Fizzingwhizzbee. I managed to find iPhoto on the Snow Leopard discs in the end, under the custom installation settings. Previously I'd looked and must have missed it. Reinstalling has also kept all the albums & tags I'd made.
