Posted this in the OS X thread but it might belong in here:
How is it that an app like iExplorer ( http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/ ) is able to access the iPhone filesystem (including the sandboxes of each app) without the phone being jailbroken?
It's saved my ass several times allowing me to recover data that an app otherwise would've had complete control over.

Thank you!
One more question. Is there an easy way to change partition sizes? Right now I have 200gb set aside for my bootcamp, but I'd like to make that about 75GB without having to completely wipe it and re-install windows.
Do you just want another notepad like app or? Otherwise just jump on the bandwagon on something like Coda 2

I CAN'T TAKE Itunes 11 anymore.
This shit is to crazy. I have the sidebar but what good does that do when everything is completely insane. this is the worst software update I have ever seen. fuck!
They need to get their act together. Please tell me John Ivy was not behind this mess??

I can never tell what the issue is with posts like that.
iTunes 11 is just fine for me. The searching is way better than before, the up next feature is great, and the UI is cleaner and easier for me to scan without the sidebar.
I have some problems with some features they took out like the album cover view in songs list view, but they don't break my use of it.
What exactly are you trying to do? Maybe people can offer workarounds if we know what your specific problems are - instead of just saying things are "completely insane"

People have been clamouring for an overhaul for years now.
They don't... iTunes UI structure hadn't changed since ver 7 came out. that's a long time ago.

Any tips on a home inventory app? Delicious Library seems good with it's barcode scanning feature but the media categories are limiting. I have a lot of other items that I would like to archive.
I'm looking for an good app for music discovery. I'd like to simply choose a song and let the app create a playlist based on that song, which I can then edit either manually or by liking/not liking songs in the playlist.
I just tried Spotify which offers this kind of radio feature, but it's far from perfect. You can't go back in the playlist, you can't like/rate any previously played songs (only the current one), and worst of it, you don't actually see the next song unless you play it.

I used it primarily on my iPhone, so I've never used the desktop version. I enjoyed the mind-map style of discovery and interface, although it's a lot different than a standard search style app; it's a very particular and niche product.
I don't know if it'll have some specific features you may want, but it's worth a shot.
Ah yes, I remember a workmate showing it to me a few months ago. Doesn't look that appealing, but I'll give it a try.

Did you try turning it on in the menubar? You can easily get used to it being up there.
It's there on the menubar but I have to put my mouse there to see it.

I assume you mean when you're in fullscreen right? Yeah. A silly oversight. They should make an option to keep the menubar shown at all times even in fullscreen.
If you don't need a fully featured app, Reader Notifier Reloaded + Google Reader website should be more than enough to handle anything. The website may need a few chrome addons to make it more.. better, but it can look pretty great with a bit of work.
I find the big RSS apps to be sort of redundant
You mean like this to copy and then Shift+Cmd+G to paste?
Hmmm...not so much. I'm thinking more like being able to copy a file location and put it into finder ie; Windows Explorer.
cmd+shift+G.
As for copying the current path: Either you get it from the information panel of the current folder (cmd+I) or you set up a simple AppleScript and put it in the Finder toolbar. Maybe it's possible with Automator as well; I'm on my phone currently and can't try it. And I'm pretty sure you can even assign a keyboard shortcut via the Keyboard prefpane.
edit: Here it is
In there if I click before the "|>" on Windows Explorer I can copy a location or paste a location from a website. I was looking to somehow be able to do that in finder. Now, above I was given an option to copy from but I'd still like to paste to.
Like I wrote, it's the shortcut cmd+shift+G. It's also in the Go menu in the menu bar ("Go to Folder").

Sorry that I'm not an english major. Anyways, thank you both for your help. I'm still learning the ins and outs of the mac as I've only had this since the Monday before Xmas.
If you like to selectively extract files in an archive (zip/rar/etc.), The Archive Browser will be $2 on Tuesday.

I wonder when a real Facebook app is gonna come. Considering how good the Facebook posting integration is with OSX, it's kinda silly that the notifications take me to their website.
And no, not that menutab thingie. That is terrible. Maybe if Mac App Store devs could take a break from making note-taking apps...

Hey man, we need more note-taking apps that cost a premium!
Hey GAF I need help; not sure if this is the right place to post this but I have been having serious issues with Mail - I have several accounts setup (work and personal) but I get asked to enter my password several times each day. This is incredibly infuriating as I have 2 step verification on some of the Gmail accounts so I either have to look for the password in Keychain or go to Gmail settings online to revoke access and generate a new password. I shouldn't have to re-enter passwords at all. I have tried deleting my accounts and adding them again but now I'm convinced this is a Mail issue.

One of my accounts on one of my Macs does that; simply hitting cancel and giving it a moment usually sorts it out.
I have heard of mail servers sending 'incorrect password' responses to clients if too much activity is coming from a particular IP, in an effort to reduce traffic; if you share an Internet connection with an office or a dorm this might be applicable.

Grabbed this yesterday. It was on offer at 69p.

Holy shit, this is amazing. Especially when you install some extensions. So powerful.

Damn. $5 here. I love the idea. Just not the price.
Edit: If this thing had a Sublime Text 2 plugin for searching within a project, I would consider the $5 worth it.
PopClip users: Here's how to get it to pop up with a keyboard shortcut.
One thing I instantly wanted to happen was to have it pop up whenever I highlighted anything using my keyboard. While it isn't my ideal result, it's close enough to that.
