1:49 AM - Top 5 Apps for iPod Touch

The brand new year is coming, are you ready to increase new apps from your iPod touch? Among all those apps, do you know which one is what you can't miss? Here are top 5 apps for your iPod Touch, maybe you want to try one or more.

1. Cut the Rope: Holiday Gift. A quick synopsis of the idea is candy is suspended above a green monster of some type named Om nom, and it's your task to cut the ropes holding the candy in order to deliver it to the little guy. Of course, nothing in life is simple, or at least not in games, since that would take the fun out of things, so there are three golden stars to collect in each level as well. Of course there are various other objects that need to be used in order to achieve your goal, some of which will be familiar to those that played the original (bubbles) and some new (stockings), but each is explained in turn.

2. free ipod to itunes transfer. The reason that I recommend this app is simple, I have seen many questions about how to transfer files from iPod to iTunes or computer. The reason is obvious, because iTunes doesn't provide us the function to backup stuff of our iPod to other devices, but we have that demand sometimes, for example, when we have a new laptop, everything in iTunes will gone, but we don't want this, so with this app, we can transfer the music and movies etc from iPod to our new computers.

3. Camera+. The great thing about Camera+ is just the sheer number of options you have. You can of course use auto-focus and auto-exposure when taking pictures, with the ability to lock in the focus so you can adjust exposure easily, take pictures with front or rear cameras, and use digital zoom. As well, there's a stabilizer option so you can take steady pictures, a timer so you can take photos on a delay, and a very cool Burst feature that lets you continuously take pictures as you hold down on the camera button.

4. Fruit Ninja. Fruit Ninja made a splash (or was that a splatter?) this year in the App Store sales charts, and it's a must-try for casual and serious gamers alike. Let's see how people appraise it:

"It's simple, fun and best of all challenging." - Touch Arcade Review

"Fruit Ninja is fun, fun, fun. It's an instant pleasure." IGN review

"The low price makes the game more than worth it." - TUAW Review

"Fruit Ninja is the sort of game that has come to typify the rising dominance of quick, simple and most of all additively fun gameplay." - AppSpy Review

5. Words with Friends. Zynga's addictive Scrabble clone allows you to play multiple turn-based games simultaneously with up to 20 friends. Words With Friends also allows you chat with your opponents, that's unexpected.

All these apps are the most popular ones among vast library, of course, there are more out there, such as transferring music from ipod to computer, you can check out which one you have missed.

3:34 AM - 5 iPod Touch Apps that You Can Not Miss

What conditions should an app meet so that it can be called as a good app for iPod touch? Firstly, it must be able to work without Internet, because we all know Wi-Fi is not so popular. Secondly, it must be interesting, after all entertainment is the primary characteristic of iPod Touch. Why do you want an iPod touch? Just to listen to music? Of course not, music, movies, games, entertainment, any of them is indispensable, but how? Well, that's what those apps used for.

1. Line 2. People always say an iPod touch is an iPhone without phone, well, not any more, even though it can't be used as a phone originally, but with the help of some app, like this Line 2, everything is possible. You can assign a real phone number to make calls and send and receive text messages over Wi-Fi. It costs $9.95/month to make unlimited calls (after a free trial), and if you're offline, you can set Line2 to automatically forward to a different phone.

2. iPod to computer transfer. Somehow, we need to transfer files from iPod to computer, and we know that iTunes can't help us with that, so a third-party tool is essential, with this ipod to computer transfer free, we can backup our files in iPod in case losing them, and also, when we change a new laptop or lose everything in our computer, we can move those songs, movies, apps, games etc from iPod to PC, so we don't have to buy them twice, which definitely will cost us a lot of money, so obviously, this tool aims to protect your iPod.

3. Dropbox. The eternal theme of iPod touch application eternal theme is to work perfectly no matter offline or online, well, Dropbox is a great example, you can always access your files, or download them to your iPod Touch, also send your own content to other people. When you are not with your computer but have an emergency on work, it is your shwd.

4. VLC. Playing videos and audios is not iPod touch's strength, unless you install VLC, it can play almost any type of file. You can sync videos or audios to your iPod touch via iTunes, if you don't want them in your iPod any more but don't want to delete them, you can transfer movie from ipod to computer, of course, if you think they are worthless to you, you can just delete those files in the iPod directly.

5. Radio. Except for iTunes, Radio is the best way for iPod touch to play music. You can access its music jukebox, play singles, album or playlist. You can also download music to your iPod, as long as you subscribe to Radio (free trial $ 9.99 / month), even offline you also can listen to songs.

3:08 AM - â??Editorsâ?? Choiceâ?? Recommends Newest Apps and Games for You in App Store

Last week, Apple updated "Free App of the Week" in App Store, even we don't know if the developers of those apps agree to reduce the price voluntarily or Apple has promised to make up for them, no matter what, for us, it is good news though. Moreover, another good news comes recently, which is Apple updates the "Editors' Choice" in App Store.

Apple says they will present the most innovative applications and fun game in the "Editors' Choice" to users. Taking a look at this section constantly to know the newest apps and games, information of updates in App Store, or visit the former "Editors' Choice" to add more excellent applications and games for iDevices. So that Apple can be more flexible when selecting applications. And Apple makes it clear in iTunes that all the recommended applications and games are screened by their editorial team. This function now mainly serve for iPhone and iPad, so if you own one of them, why not try the recommendations, also, if you prefer to watch movies on iPad, you can transfer a tons of movies to it with ipad converter.

"Editors' Choice" will save a lot of time for users who want to choose the wanted games and apps. If you trust Apple's editorial team, then now you can go to "Editors' Choice" to see what apps they are recommending. Some current Editors' Choice picks on the iOS App Store include the new Facebook Camera app, Extreme Skater, Sketchbook Ink, and Air Mail. On the Mac App Store, Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Cobook are being highlighted as Editors' Choices.



So you can see that this activity is not just helpful for us users, it's also a chance for game developers, obviously, after all, most people will try the app that recommended by Apple's editors. You know, there are millions of apps and games in App Store, and not every of them will be known by users, unless an app appears in the various stores' top 10 or at least top 25 lists, chances are that most users will never see it unless Apple decides to feature the app in its "new and noteworthy" section.

Now here are the questions. Are the "Editors' Choices" selected by curators based on what they consider a top app product? We don't know. What the criteria would be to have an app be selected as an editor's choice, we have no idea. Even Apple has declared that the editors are from Apple, still we don't know. But one thing is for sure, which is the app or game must be worthy, if not, there is no chance that it would be chosen by editors.

When you really don't know what apps and games to install in iDevices, you can consider "Editors' Choices", and download them in iTunes, and here is a tip for you, if you have downloaded anything in iTunes that has DRM protection, free drm removal can help.

5:26 AM - Features of iOS 6: Siri,FaceBook,FaceTime and So On

WWDC was held at the Moscone in San Francisco, Apple brought us the whole new iOS 6, which has more than 200 new functions, certainly can give users better experiences. This new update is only not available for iPad 1, iPod touch 1-3, so most Apple users have the chance to enjoy the functions that iOS will bring us this fall. Now let's see what features Apple has introduced about iOS 6 at WWDC.

1. Siri. This voice assistant is always the first one to recommend. Siri is one the most impressive features in iOS 6, but only new iPad can use it, of course and iPhone 4S. The voice functionality of Siri will be richer and more humane. In the future Apple will cooperate with a number of car manufacturers to develop products that can support Siri. Now except for figuring out how to transfer dvd to ipad to watch DVD movies, new iPad users also can play jokes with Siri. Siri in iOS 6 can support Chinese, French, Italian and other new languages, which means this voice assistant is more international.

2. 3D Map App. The most direct result of competition between Apple and Google is that Apple will have its own map app. iPhone users have been using Google Maps for a long time, but this time, Apple released 3D map app at WWDC, the cooperation between Apple and Google now is over. Apple promised "vector-based map elements" that provide for smooth graphics and text, as well as "incredibly fluid" panning, tilting, and zooming.



3. FaceTime. As iOS user, who wouldn't use FaceTime to video chat between each other? But there is one disadvantage about FaceTime, that we only can use it via Wi-Fi, well, this issue wouldn't exist any more. iOS 6 enables FaceTime calls over a cellular connection, 3G network. So now even we are outside, there is no Wi-Fi, we still can chat with friends via FaceTime, Apple will also unify your Apple ID and your phone number, enabling you to not only take calls on the move but answer calls from your Mac or your iPad with FaceTime.

4. Facebook. Finally, only Twitter integration is available on iOS devices before, now Facebook has been added in the list too. We can now post to Facebook directly through Apple's app. If you have watched some interesting movie on iPad with dvd to ipad converter, you can just share it to Facebook directly and introduce it to all your friends, very nice right?

5. Safari. First and foremost is the ability to sync open tabs from Safari on a desktop to Safari on an iOS device via iCloud. Brand new safari browser will also add offline reading feature. Now, Safari can cache full websites for offline reading, not just links.
