Follow up on ICT project, iTunes 11?

Dear all,

It's time for me to post again. The past week was a tough week, with homework, test and most of all some private issues with Vanessa (again!)

First, we wish Vanessa a (Late) Happy Birthday, which was on November 23rd!

On our ICT project, we did something independently this week, where we just tried to learn how to use Vegas Pro, which was a good session. I had a bit of a blast of trying to make a simple movie put together. Next week we would really start rolling on the filming process with Colleen, Candy and Caleb (Isn't it all strange that their names all start with a C expect for me?)

So lets move on to some news. Where is our iTunes 11? We've been wating for quite a while now, but some users are starting to lose patience, but never mind, I rather Apple release something finished rather than one full of bugs and unfinished.

iTunes 11 will introduce a brand new design, probably the biggest change since its launch in 2001. With exiting new album view, and the 'Mini' Player when minimised, this is gonna be a exiting version. On the Apple website, it said 'Coming in November' So most people will expect the update in the next two days. Be patient! Apple is trying to make the best.

The death of Ping, their social network will be done on iTunes 11, which they would not have it on iTunes 11. Well Ping is just a failure to me. We expect iTunes 11 to be out in the next few days, which a lot of label companies has heard from.

This two months was quite busy, Windows 8, Windows Phone 8, Microsoft Surface, iPad Mini, iPad 4th gen, New iMac and 13 inch Retina MacBook Pro. I'm sorry I couldn't cover them, as I was really depressed about Vanessa. I wish I did, so I can just literally pick it up to you all. I promise, I will cover new products in the future.

UPDATE: The brand new Nokia Lumia 920 and 820 is here, with Windows Phone 8 installed. As looking from the email Nokia sent me, it looks pretty impressive.  As far as I know, it has a so-called
PureView camera, and also a PureMotion HD+ Screen, (What does that possibly mean?) And some exiting new features. I will follow up on all the new features of them soon.

Thank you.

Moved on from Food Tech to ICT, Flash for ICS Android 4.0.X

Hello,

It's been a really looooooooong time since I have post anything ( Thanks to you, Vanessa) But this time, I am really back.

My lovely class (9.4) in my school (Sha Tin College) has just finished our Food technology project, and moving on towards ICT. And our new exiting project is called 'A day in a life in STC' A video project. And me, Colleen Yuen, Candy and Caleb Hyde have joind together to make one, along with 5 other groups. I will be using this blog to update our progress, and I hope you all will enjoy it when the final movie is finished!

We have started on our photo shooting progress, and we will record the actual movie later. This exiting project will include a lot of sweat and pain (Along with arguments with Colleen) But I am sure that we will make the best quality video we can make.

So moving on to our next topic. Adobe Flash. In August, Adobe has announced taking off the Flash off Google Play, and its giving a lot of pain to Android 4.0.X users (Which includes me, I have installed Cyanonagen Mod 9 RemICS on my Galaxy W) But dont feel mad or sad yet; Cause theres a workaround.


1.Go to helpx.adobe.com/flash-player-versions.html on your Android device.

2. Scroll down towards section saying
'Flash Player Archived for Android 4.0'

3. Select 'Flash Player 11.1. For Android 4.0 11.1.115.27)

4. After downloading, go to 'Downloads' and select the file.

5.After opening it, press install on the screen.

6. After installing, you're done!

7. Check a Flash Website to make sure it works.

This will not slow down your phone. Trust me.

I hope that this can help you get Flash back, and also I hope you all can support us with the 'A day in a life' video. We will try our best!
