iPad Camera Kit

Turns Your HDTV into a Window With Winscape

Mac: You know the movie version of the future where instead of real windows, we’ve got virtual ones that offer beautiful views of anything we want? Application Winscape pairs your Wiimote with a flat panel TV (or two) to do just that.

It’s a seriously geeky project, and it’s one that would require a pretty big commitment, but the results, which you can see in the video above, are actually incredibly impressive. The app is free to try, and costs $10 if you want to stick with it after 30 runs.

iPad gets fitted into car dashboard

the Toyota Tacoma has a long way to go before being considered glamorous, or even remotely cool, but jacking an iPad into its console might be a good start. That’s what the good people of SoundMan Car Audio over in California have done with a little bit of elbow grease and knowhow, and we’ve got video of how it all came together after the break. They’ve yet to wire it up to the Audison Bit One sound processor and McIntosh MMC406M 6-channel amp that are intended to receive the iPad’s audio goodies, but the important stuff of fitting and molding the dash to its new 9.7-inch centerpiece is all done. Alright, so the glossy black screen and the demure grey plastic don’t exactly sing in harmony, but surely the funky aesthetics can be forgiven for the sake of accessing all your media on the move

Apple holding iPhone OS 4 event, April 8th!

the world is turning upside down. Apple has announced an iPhone OS 4 event on April 8th at 10AM PT for a “sneak peek of the next generation of iPhone OS software.” So if you’re wondering about the future of the platform… your answers will appear sooner than you think. The team collectively dropped an “OMG” when we saw this news, as it’s pretty unusual to see such a big event coming from Apple right on the heels of something like the iPad launch. Of course we’ll be there — at Apple’s Infinite Loop campus in Cupertino — live and direct, providing the liveblogging coverage you know and love.

WHS – Referenced Account is Currently Locked Out

For some reason when I booted into windows 7, it was unable to map my windows home server network drive. I hadn’t changed anything on WHS, but I was getting the error … The referenced account is currently locked out and may not be logged on to. I Looked in the WHS Console, and my account that I use to connect to the share was Enabled, so it must have been something else. A quick google showed that other people have had a problem but no clear solution. I decided to use Remote Desktop Connection to connect to the WHS and look at the user account, and a few moments later I was back in business.

Here’s how to solve it:

1. Open a remote desktop connection to your Windows Home Server computer, and be sure to log in as administrator (should be same password you use when logging into the WHS Console).
2. Once at the desktop and Internet Explorer pops up (it usually does), just close it.
3. Open the start menu, right click on My Computer and go to Manage.
4. In the left “Tree View” double click on Local Users and Groups, then double click on the Users folder.
5. In the right pane a list of all user accounts should be populated, some you will recognize, some you won’t. Anyways locate the account you are trying to “Unlock”, mine was Marf. Right click the account, and go to properties.
6. Then you will see a little checkbox in the bottom of the window that says “Account is Locked Out”, uncheck this box, click okay.
7. Now you can minimize the Remote desktop Connection and try to connect to the share \\yourshare from your actual PC, if it works, then you can go to Start Menu and Log Off.

Enjoy!
