Google Calendar Sync crashes Outlook

I wrote a previous post on how to fix the Google Calendar Sync issue that crashes Outlook 2007. It worked for some, but not for all. I actually started having the problem again myself out of the blue and I was extremely pissed.

I came across some information on the Google forums that indicated this might [...]

Why you shouldn’t have to pay for Texts

This was at the end of a previous post, but I thought it deserved its own spot, so here it is. So many people give me a blank stare when I go off the deep end about how much of a rip off text messages are. They wonder why I am such an angry person, [...]

Apple lies to the FCC, and to You

Last week I booted up OSX and fired up Safari. I was brought to Apple.com, the default homepage which I haven’t yet changed. I noticed up in the top left hand corner of the page that Apple was announcing that they had responded to the FCC and published the letter on their homepage. I don’t [...]

Another funny, yet egotistical aspect of Apple

I just noticed today that Snow Leopard’s default icon for PC’s on an SMB network is that of an older looking white CRT monitor with a blue screen of death on it.  It was rather subtle so it took me a minute to actually notice.  It’s funny how Apple and Microsoft just can’t get along. [...]

System Profiler and LSHW Output: Mac Pro

Solved: Google Calendar Sync crashes Outlook 2007

NOTE: This post is outdated, and probably won’t work well for you. You can actually install the older version of Calendar Sync and it should fix the problem, if not then try this. There’s a link to the new article at the end of this post.

How The Problem Started

Casual Discussion of Amazon’s Kindle

Amazon’s Kindle was the source of misery for many owners last month when they dropped the ball by deleting Orwell’s 1984 off the device due to a copyright issue on behalf of one of their suppliers.  A few weeks ago, I was just kicking back with Samantha and Billy shooting some Qik Video’s when this [...]

How to dual boot Windows (Vista, or 7) and Mac OS X on a PC

Actually, I’ll show you how to triple boot with Ubuntu or any Linux distribution of your choosing. You can leave out the Linux part if you want, but it’s not a bad idea to have a Linux OS on a system with Windows and OSX: You’ll be able to read/write non-journaled HFS+ (OSX) drives, NTFS [...]
