When I was attempting to sync my iPod Touch to  second computer it appeared as if nothing was happening but the computer is under the desk so I finally realized I was missing an error message.

CNN videos will not play most of the time on the iPhone or iPod Touch when attempting to access them right from cnn.com.

To watch CNN video on your iPhone just follow the below instructions. This should also work for most other sites out there that you are having a hard time viewing the video on your iPod Touch or your iPhone.

When attempting to install application on your iPhone you might get a message stating that you are not able to install the application because you are not authorized on this computer. If you get this message and there is not another iTunes account configured for another iPhone on this computer then you need to authorize this computer for your iTunes account.

To authorize this computer click Store from the top menu and select Authorize computer from the drop down. Now sync the iTunes with your iPhone again and the application should install without issue.

Side Note: You are limited to authorize 5 computers per iTunes account.

When using Fring to make Skype calls using a iPhone or a iPod Touch you must dial using a plus and a 1. So an example of call area code 123 with number 111-2222 you would need to dial +1231112222 instead of just dialing 1231112222.

To dial the plus all you need to do is hold down 0 for a second and you will see the plus symbol appear instead of the 0.
