Now is not the time to be only ordinary, rise above the fray and be a Hero of the Day.
An Apple A Day Gallery – 2007.11.09
Mac OS X Leopard: Finder Path Bar
From Apple:
Path Bar
See the path of a file when you view it in the Finder. Just choose Show Path Bar from the View menu and the path is visible at the bottom of the Finder window. You can also drag files to any location in the Path Bar
One feature that has been missing in Mac OS X. In Mac OS X Tiger (10.4.x) an incarnation of the Path Bar can be found in Spotlight enabled search.
iPhone Software 1.1.2
UPDATE (2007.11.12): It is now available through iTunes. Connect your iPhone, launch iTunes, and “Check for Update”.
There is no radically new features added in iPhone Software 1.1.2 which is now made available on Apple’s software download server.
iPhone Software 1.1.2 (160.1MB) | iPod touch Software 1.1.2 (157.9MB)
Custom ringtones are separated from standard ones.
PLUS: You can use the .m4r method to add your own custom ringtones to the iPhone.
How to add your own custom made ringtones to the iPhone:
- You need iTunes 7.5 and iPhone Software 1.1.2
- Encode the file into 128kbps AAC, smaller file size is preferred. I use GarageBand to edit and convert the audio file.
- Rename the file extension from “.m4a” to “.m4r”; for Mac OS X “Get Info” the file, then change the extension name there.
- Add the now “.m4r” file into iTunes, preferably have iTunes to copy the files into the library.
- Connect your iPhone, go to the “Ringtones” tab, and check the ringtones you want to send to the iPhone.
There is now iPhone battery indicator on iTunes (tested using iTunes 7.5).
Right after iPhone Software Update or Software restore, the iPhone is flashing “Slide to Unlock” in different languages (French and German).

AppleInsider reports that iPhone Software 1.1.2 has been posted on Apple’s download server. It weighs in at 160MB.
I am restoring my iPhone software to version 1.1.2 as I type this.
For those who jailbreak or unlock their iPhones are recommended to wait until more info surfaces regarding this update. Apple is expected to patch numbers of security holes found in iPhone Software 1.1.1, which one of the exploits is used to jailbreak the iPhone.
More to come.
