How to Bulk Email, Copy, Print and Delete Photos on Your iPhone and iPad

This article was written on May 20, 2011 by CyberNet.

A few weeks ago I was talking to someone who had said what a pain it was to manage their iPhone and iPad photos in bulk. They told me that there were about 20 pictures they took that didn’t turn out well, and in order to remove them from their phone they had to go through and delete them one-by-one. Ouch! I could see how that would be frustrating, but there is a much simpler way that not many people seem to know about. Here’s what you need to do:

  1. Open the Photos app on your iPhone or iPad.
  2. Tap the arrow in the upper-right corner of the screen.
    Bulk edit photos button
  3. Most people I’ve talked to realize you can select multiple photos by tapping on them individually from this screen, but the cool thing is that you can tap and hold on the first photo you want to select and then slide your fingers across all of the photos you want to share/copy/delete. Unfortunately the screen won’t scroll as your finger reaches an edge, but this trick should still ease the process of selecting a lot of photos.
    Bulk delete photos
  4. Tap the Share, Copy, or Delete button depending on which operation you want to do.

Note: You can repeat Step 3 to deselect items you didn’t mean to select.

So the key things you need to remember once you enter the selection screen is to tap, hold, and slide. From there you can send the photos through Email or MMS (limited to 5 photos at a time), copy them to the clipboard, print them, or delete them from your iOS device.

Adobe Flash Player 10 Beta Available

This article was written on May 15, 2008 by CyberNet.

flash player 10.jpgAdobe has announced that the first Beta of Flash Player 10 is now available for everyone to download. It comes with al kinds of really nice features and improvements, but the best thing that we’ll probably see come out of this is the newly available 3D effects. One example that they gave of where this could be useful is taking 2D images and arranging them in a rotating 3D carousel similar to that seen to the right. Making your own Cover Flow clone wouldn’t take too long either then.

Concerned about performance? According to Adobe they are pushing some of the graphical processing onto the user’s video card so that the processor can be used for rendering special effects:

One of the best things about the creative features now available in Adobe Flash Player 10 beta is that they won’t slow down performance. With Flash Player 10 beta, developers can enable SWF content to render through the memory bandwidth and computational horsepower of the GPU hardware processor, freeing up the CPU to do more – such as render 3D content and intricate effects, and process complex business logic.

Here’s a list of some other notable new features in Flash Player 10 Beta:

  • 3D Effects – Easily transform and animate any display object through 3D space while retaining full interactivity. Fast, lightweight, and native 3D effects make motion that was previously reserved for expert users available to everyone. Complex effects are simple with APIs that extend what you already know.
  • Custom Filters and Effects – Create your own portable filters, blend modes, and fills using Adobe Pixel Bender, the same technology used for many After Effects CS3 filters. Shaders in Flash Player are about 1KB and can be scripted and animated at runtime.
  • Advanced Text Layout – A new, highly flexible text layout engine, co-existing with TextField, enables innovation in creating new text controls by providing low-level access to text offering right-to-left and vertical text layout, plus support for typographic elements like ligatures.
  • Enhanced Drawing API – Runtime drawing is easier and more powerful with re-styleable properties, 3D APIs, and a new way of drawing sophisticated shapes without having to code them line by line.
  • Visual Performance Improvements – Applications and videos will run smoother and faster with expanded use of hardware acceleration. By moving several visual processing tasks to the video card, the CPU is free to do more.

It will probably be a little while before we start to see developers making use of the new technology offered in Flash Player 10, but once a majority of users have upgraded the developers will be all over this like a kid in a candy store. 😉

GTA Online Update Coming Today for Xbox and PS3

GTA V gamers around the world were absolutely thrilled earlier this week when GTA Online finally launched. Unfortunately, many players were unable to get online and play due to overwhelming server demand. There have been some issues reported with GTA Online and Rockstar announced last night that would be issuing an update for the game today.

gtaonline

GTA Online micro-transactions are currently disabled, but one of the biggest problems is that some users are reporting saved data is being deleted. This problem is reportedly causing people to waste money on cash cards.

There’s no indication of if this patch will also address the problem some gamers were having with their cars disappearing from their virtual garages. It would be very irritating to spend lots of time and money upgrading a car in the game only to have it disappear. Hopefully that issue will be addressed with this patch.

OpenSuse My favorite Linux distribution, OpenSuse, has released another great version. OpenSuse 10.2 has been in the works since back in June and 6-months later we receive this fine release. Here is what the announcement says is new for 10.2:

As usual, we ship all the latest open source packages available at the time. But we want to give special mention to the redesigned GNOME and KDE  desktop, Firefox 2.0, ext3 as new default file system, support for internal SD card readers, new power managment and last but not least our improved package management.

I’m in the process of downloading the DVD via a Torrent right now but it will take awhile. In the mean time I have been looking for a site that has a good screenshot gallery posted but can’t seem to find anything yet. I expect that OSDir.com will be posting one shortly so if you want to visually see what’s new then you should be able to check it out there. Otherwise, when I get it up and running I might post a few screenshots here as well.

Download OpenSuse 10.2

Update:
The OpenSuse Torrents are having issues downloading so I went ahead and mirrored them. Here is the 32-bit Torrent and here is the 64-bit Torrent both of which are for the DVD.
