Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard: No AirTunes support in Front Row

Friday, November 23rd, 2007

Just upgraded my Mac mini I use as a media center to find out that the new Front Row does not stream to remote AirTunes speakers as it did in Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. Front Row sound goes only to audio out, which is connected to the TV. One more thing: the music stops when leaving the Music menu in Front Row. Mac OS X 10.5.1 update does not fix these problems. Apple Support Discussions thread is here.

iPod touch YouTube proxy issue

Saturday, November 10th, 2007

“YouTube not available” error message is shown on the iPod touch display when a proxy server is configured.

I see a 404 error message for http://iphone-wu.apple.com/feeds/standardfeeds/ in squid logs.

Same problem reported on Apple Discussions.

New off-site backup solution - rsync.net

Saturday, June 16th, 2007

I signed up with rsync.net for an off-site filesystem. Opted for geo-redundant version (automated nightly replication to other site) located in Zurich, Switzerland. Very fast speed from Europe and Qatar, good speed with US hosts. Very easy to use from Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Linux and Windows (rsync, ftp, scp, sftp, ssh, WebDAV). Direct integration in Finder, just use “Connect to Server” and enter the hostname address with https. On Linux and FreeBSD 6.x sshfs works like a charm. Easy to install on FreeBSD using ports, just cd /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-sshfs and run make install clean.
