New blog home

Quick update: After a long time with absolutely nothing posted here, I’ve decided to move it to a wordpress hosted blog. This won’t necessarily help/make me write anything worth reading, but it’ll hopefully save me a few quid in electricity bills when I decommission the server at home that was previously running it :P

Posting again

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything and to be honest things have been pretty hectic.

Hopefully that’s about to change so expect updates soon :)

New iTunes importing fails

Well so much for the latest iTunes 7, I’ve just tried to import a CD with the new version and it errors on the second track :(

Further investigation reveals that if I turn off the “play tracks while importing” option, it all imports fine. How annoying, do they not actually test these things before releasing them?

UPDATE: You can’t actually play anything at all while it’s importing, just throws an import error as soon as you click play!

WordPress Upgrade

Well, I finally upgraded to the current version of WordPress after running with the old 1.5 version for some time. One of the reasons it took me so long to get around to doing the upgrade was how complicated the upgrade seemed. Why does it have to be so complicated? Backup this, disable this, delete everything (apart from this, that, the other and maybe that if you’re using this), copy everything back over (apart from this and maybe that but deffinately this), then run the upgrade script, re-enable this then that :S

Well, I’ve done it now so that’s that over with for a while, I hope!
