Come Fight the War with me! I am OPERATIONAL READY!

Finally finally...
thank you all who are so concern abt my well being, the sleepless nights... causing abit of anemia in me (almost black out twice last nite after I stood up from a squat-down position.... noooo, i wasnt doing the toilet biz... I was playing with Creamie n Nugget)!

Haiz.. anyway, after much searching online.... i tot my last opinions would be:
1) Pay $$$ Upgrade my lappy OS - NOoooooooooooo!
2) Use another PC to sync (where to find?)
3) of cos the last resort is to sell the HP!

Yes.... such drastic measures cos I've had enough....

Until I came upon a few forum toks with the "fruit vendor"...
Pple were having the same problem as me, almost EXACT! YAHHHOOOO! I am not the only one! Phew! Some relief!!!

But the happiness stopped short when only few successfully resolved the problem, many did not...
Worst of all, many forum posting were targeted at the "fruit vendor" that they are irresponsible & did not attempt to resolve the problem or provide technical help.

That nite, I dreamt...
1) I will uninstall the current version (latest) iTunes & ask ard if anyone had an older version of it.
(Newly posted versions usually had some glitch unresolved).


2) If failed, I will find alternative comp/laptop to sync my MePhone.

I think I abit 走火入魔 already... sleep also dream of Fruits.... damn!
----------
Next day, the 1st person I met was my FX mentor, Eric, & i casually asked if he has a copy of the older version (he's an iPhone fan). These days pple usually download new progs & run it on the spot, nobody saves the .Exe file on their computer anymore, Nobody except for me (i usually will replace the old 1 with the new)... or so I thought....

Eric is the other person... wuahahah! Luckily me! I casually asked & he say: "Yah... I think I still have it in my laptop, let me see.... (starts searching the files in his lappy)... yah... there u go!"
-----

So last nite, I showered (cool my angry head).... dressed in cooling clothes (in case i get heated up again)... sat at my lappy &:
1) uninstall the Latest version
2) uninstall all the add ons (like Quicktime, Bonjour, Apple device support etc.- all the Fruity pple out there... u'll knw what I mean if u see ur installed prog list)
3) reboot lappy
4) Install older version of iTune
5) Reboot lappy
6) Poke my Orange MePhone's buttocks with the USB
7) Pray very very hard!!!

1st try... unsuccessful... told me got 1 file is the newer version than my current version, cant read the file. i tot when I uninstall a prog, all the files related to it willbe deleted!?! Did a search & found few folders created by iTunes... deleted the files & folders. Start all over again....

2nd try:
1) uninstall the old version
2) uninstall all the add ons (like Quicktime, Bonjour, Apple device support etc.- all the Fruity pple out there... u'll knw what I mean if u see ur installed prog list)
3) reboot lappy
4) Install older version of iTune
5) Reboot lappy


---------------

I was too tired to try.... when to sleep after that... decided that I have abused my lappy very much for the past 2 weeks.... making it work from 7-7pm & 9-12am almost every weekday...

--------

Morning... went to "work".... poke my MePhone.... *PRAY very hard no error msg*.
Nothing happened for the next agonising 2 minutes... open iTunes...
"welcome - Soya's Orange MePhone" greeted me!

still skeptical.... tried to do some stuff.... download apps.... sync songs (playlist)... check the photos..... made 2 ringtones....
VIOLA!

So happy! Now I have some interesting Apps.... still thinking abt getting the WatsApp for sms - actually i dun sms all that much.. those Fruit Lovers friends also dun sms me that much.... but i guess it's a worth it investment. =D



---------------
Importantly, i managed to meet my objective of buying the "fruit".... do my trading work on the go! It's great! Simply great! Not the best... that would be a little handy Netbook or those clutch size netbook....
But it's really GREAT! I can check my position (though if I am out enjoying & having a losing position will make me grumpy for a bit, but winning position I can treat makan!) plan my day out more objectively (i practically live with my lappy now)!

Check out this cool app!
Though it's trial for 30 days only,
it's a great app!



Thank you to all those friendly fruit lover friends who volunteered their help & support!
Thank you for bearing with my #%@#$$&%#^ on the phone!

I am starting to QUITE like my ORANGE MePhone now.... =D
Oh... any nice & useful apps, please drop me a sms, it's sms for now... watsapp will be COMING SOON!
