Removing IT Policy From your BlackBerry

My wife recently purchased a used BlackBerry on eBay. It came as advertised and in great shape but there was one small problem.

She couldnt add any 3rd party apps like google maps, and she couldnt change any security settings. We took the blackberry to verizon and they said it was a corporate BlackBerry and the company it came from had hardcoded an IT Policy which prevents you from doing such things as installing apps and changing security settings. When I asked if they (Verizon) could remove it they said no!

I was like this thing is useless. So I searched the internet for a way to do it. As in my previous post. I found the answer on ebay. There was a guide for six bucks that told me exactly how to remove this infamous IT Policy within 5 minutes.

Play DVDs on Your iPod

Last christmas I got an iPod for christmas. I was so excited not to have to carry my laptop when I travel just to watch movies during the flight! But was soon dissapointed that I have to pay enourmous amounts of money to download videos from iTunes. I was like WTF, I just spent $350 bucks on this daggon thing now you want me to spend more money!

So I went searching the internet on how to play all of the ripped DVD's I have stored on my PCs hard drive. And at the last place I expected to find my answer was eBay. There I found a guide that took me step by step on how to convert any video file to the ipod format. Even DVDs. The guide did costs six bucks but was well worth it. That was four weeks ago. Now I have over 40 GB of video on my iPod. I am sooo happy with my video iPod now.
