Apple TV Conflicts with Xbox and Bluray

on March 16, 2013 in Apple

I love my Apple TV. My kids love our Xbox.  Okay…maybe I do too. But I recently thought that they were all breaking at the same time.  The Apple TV was skipping like a scratched DVD.  The Xbox wouldn’t work.  Even my Blu-ray player wouldn’t play disks.  It was like an entertainment Armageddon.

How Do I Turn Off My Apple TV?

on March 16, 2013 in Apple

How do you turn off an Apple TV?  Sounds like a problem that you shouldn’t have to Google.  But…I did.  And if you’re reading this, then you probably did too. Since the Apple TV doesn’t have a power button, the solution, though simple, is not as intuitive as you might assume. So, how do you […]

Organizing iPhone Apps

My Method For Organizing My iPhone Icons

on March 1, 2013 in Apple

I love my iPhone.  I hate trying to organize the apps. I have tried laying the apps in a frequency-of-use order, which didn’t work for me because it was too subjective.  I then tried to put as many as I could into conceptual folders…which I hated because I was constantly digging through similarly titled folders.

How to Disable the WordPress Admin Toolbar

on March 1, 2013 in Blogging

I don’t mind the WordPress admin bar when I’m working in the WordPress Dashboard, but current versions of WordPress also put the admin bar on the front-end of your actual blog…which is not always what I want. So, how do you get rid of this thing if you decide that you don’t want it there […]
