I hate the new look. There is how to change iTunes back to the old look completely!

http://erambert.me/itunes-109/

If you just want to change the icon.

  1. Go to your itunes app on applications folder
  2. Right click > Show package contents > Resources
  3. Drop a .icns file and replace the file (Back up the original .icns just in case)

Here are some places to find other .icns files!

Actually a few of my friends discovered this! Thanks to Christina Boon!

The same way doesnt work 100% with entourage (you cant send mail)

Step 1:

Create a new imap email with the following settings

Things to note are the email address and the username MUST be your FULL SMU EMAIL ADDRESS

Step 2:

Create a new SMTP server for outgoing mail with the following settings. You are done. (Ignore the For use in school smtp entry)

You are DONE!

SMU Mac Config
My printer settings wont work as the printer network location has been changed. Please use
smb://seng-city-ps/MonoPCLA4 instead of the old addresss.
my config guide is out of date at this moment because of this. The guide by Macness has the up to date settings for printer.

{ Set up @live smu email account with macs

Well as usual CIT or rather IITS is continuing to ignore the mac presence in smu. Their guide to set up entourage on a mac for the new email server was redirected to this site. I am not sure how long they can ignore and not support macs. SMU claims to be a school that is up to date with innovation and all IT savvy with their projector rooms and what have you not but they refuse to help and support mac users at all.

Due to that fact that they dont upgrade seniors with this account, i cant test any settings on it. I call out to the new mac users who manage to connect to entourage or mail with the new live email to let either me or Macness know so that we can publicize it.

We will prove that the mac community will support ourselves better than they can ever do.

Mail Settings

It seems that a simple substitute of the account name will work but i doubt it will be that simple.

Clues to the server settings can be found here

Can someone try the settings below and let me know!

I have created a script to auto configure your iphone to WLAN-Student and SMUVPN!

Requires iPhone/iTouch with iOS 3.0 and above. Tested on iPhone 4 running iOS 4.0.1 only. If it works perfectly for you please let me know!

This Script will auto configure your iPhone/iTouch to work with SMU WLAN-Student and VPN.

Instructions

Navigate here with iPhone/iTouch, enter username and install the script. The script will later ask for password for WLAN-Student and VPN, note that they are the same.
