Tip: Syncing Internet Explorer Favorites (Windows 7) across different machines using Dropbox

1) Goto IE Favorites folder.
2) Change Folder Location to Dropbox "Favorites" folder.
Note: Don't forget to create the new folder  "Favorites", so that the bookmark files are not moved to the root Dropbox folder.

 3) Select the just created "Favorites" folder within Dropbox.

 4) Move all files and subfolders.


Note: In case you want to sync your bookmarks with Apple Safari bookmarks, you can still use iCloud, and selecting Internet Explorer Bookmarks for syncing.

--Update 02/10/2013----
iCloud 3.0 caused the return of my deleted files.
When I uninstalled it, everything went smooth! Of course, your bookmarks are now no longer synchronized by Safari :(
--------------------------



Applied on :
Windows 7 Professional SP1
Internet Explorer 10.0.9
Dropbox 2.0.22
iCloud 3.0

Feature I would like to see back in YouTube iPhone application: Streaming through Apple Composite AV Cable

I used to have video streamed from YouTube on my iPhone to my car stereo using the Apple Composite AV Cable, this was in previous versions till the iOS 6 release, then YouTube no longer streams video through this cable :'(


Very annoying really to miss a feature through a software upgrade!

Feature I would like to see in: iPad

Multiple profiles, especially for the e-mails, and if possible for other accounts like Facebook, Twitter,...etc.

So that when I use the device I can activate my profile while my spouse switches to her profile when she needs to use it. (A personalized experience per user)

Feature I would like to see in: iPhone

A notification led rather than illuminating the screen to check whether any notifications are residing there.
That would be only be an efficient, and time saver feature, but also a battery saver one.

Failing to extend iOS 5 "Require passcode" value

If you are among those thousands suffering from this same symptom, then you are most probably among the victims of an Exchange mail policy!

My advise would be to head to your Exchange Mail Server Administrator and ....%^&^&**:(...
And report it to Apple in hope they release this silly restriction!


Initially (Before Exchange) that displayed up to 4 hours!!!
