Cobby034 — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 01:28:22 GMT

As we all know, iTunes can only transfer the files to iPod. Recently, our computer crashed and all of the files on iTunes was gone, but they are still in my iPod. I spent over 6 hours trying to find out how to transfer my ipod files to my PC and the emepty iTunes. I thought it would be a good idea to make a tutorial for iPod fans who was confused by how to transfer songs, videos, photos and playlist etc. from iPod to computer or iTunes!!!! hahaa I tried a third party software name Cucusoft iPhone/iTouch/iPod to Computer Transfer to extract the songs, videos, photos and playlist etc. from iPod to computer or iTunes. Software: Cucusoft iPhone/iTouch/iPod to Computer Transfer Support iPod: iPod/iPod Nano/iPod shuffle, also iPhone and iTouch It can help iPod fans to transfer iPod songs, videos, photos and playlist backup to PC or iTunes that iTunes can not do when solve you encounter the following familiar problems: ? when your computer crashes down, your files on computer and iTunes was gone; ? when you buy a new PC, you want to transfer your iPod files to your new computer; ? when you like your friends...

I ordered an Instantcake download 6.3a. My confirmation email shows the 6.3a, but my online invoice shows 6.1 (for R10). I have not downloaded yet, as I don't want the wrong software. Thanks, Rich Dell

If you've ever wished for that, rejoice - as Netflix will be making its online movie player available to TiVo owners and subscribers starting in December of this year, allowing you to watch Netflix's "Watch Instantly" digital movies right on your television.

Community Headlines — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 19:47:02 GMT

Neuros and DVRupgrade have partnered to bring hackers two new cash money bounties to allow an OSD to synchronize with TiVo's electronic programming guide. The OSD is primarily used to consolidate all your DVDs and VHS tapes into one box, but, due in large part to it being open source, more adventuresome users are already benefiting from its ability to do so much more (like record live TV, stream YouTube to your TV and music to your stereo, play photo slide shows on TV). And now you can get paid to help it do even more. From a recent DVRupgrade forums Posting ... (click for details) "People love TiVo for its robust program guide and related features, and people love the OSD for the portability of its recordings. So, we've come up with a bounty for a project that combines the best of both devices. Namely for the OSD to piggyback on the TiVo's recording schedule and make portable MPEG-4 recordings of those shows that you choose. It's essentially like having TiVo simultaneously record onto a portable device at the same time that its recording to its hard drive. With no file transfer or conversion, you could have all your...

Matt Whitlock — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 16:56:40 GMT

...I wanted to give the Neuros OSD a spin. When I first heard about it last year, I knew it was a unique product, but it wasn't until I got my hands on one that I figured out how useful something like this can be. Don't get me wrong, it's not 100% innovation at its best, and while the execution of its secondary features is somewhat flawed, the core of the product can be extremely useful for those in the analog jam...

Is There a HD Size Limit with Instant Cake?

genelouie — Sat, 22 Sep 2007 15:24:47 GMT

Two years ago, I purchased InstantCake to install a Seagate 300gb on my TIVo; and it worked great. I recently purchased a Seagate 750gb. I tried using InstantCake on it, but the two attempts were unsuccessful. . . . Is there a hard drive size limitation with InstantCake? If so, what is the limit? . . . Is it possible that my two-year-old software is out of date, and I need to buy a new copy?
