How to fix iOS 9.3’s broken Safari, Mail and Messages links

If you've been hit by the iOS 9.3 broken links you can follow these steps to fix the issue whilst we wait for a full update from Apple. Unfortunately you'll need to hook your iPhone or iPad up to your computer and sync with iTunes.
  1. If you still have it installed, delete the Booking.com app from your device
  2. Turn on Airplane Mode
  3. Plug your device into your computer and open iTunes
  4. Turn your device off and on
  5. Make sure you have the Booking.com app in iTunes on your computer - download link
  6. Keep Airplane Mode on!
  7. In iTunes, sync the Booking.com app to your device
    1. Select your iOS device in iTunes
    2. Change to the Apps tab
    3. Search for Booking.com and press install
    4. Press Sync
  8. Wait for the sync to finish, then open the Booking.com app on your device
  9. Force close the Booking.com app by double tapping the home button and swiping up
  10. Force close Safari by double tapping the home button and swiping Safari up
  11. Delete the Booking.com app
  12. Turn off Airplane Mode
  13. Open Safari - your links should work again! It'll also fix any problems with links from other apps like Mail or Messages.
You may need to try this a few times for it to work, it seems like a specific timing needs to occur for the correct caches to clear.
Thanks to Booking.com quickly fixing their side! You should be able to safely reinstall their app again after confirming these steps worked.

Watch Live Football And Sport On Google Chrome

If you want to watch free live sports in your browser, Chrome enjoys a big advantage – the Live Sport extension.
Chrome Live Sport extension provides a schedule of live sports from around the world with accompanying links to live streaming videos to watch online in your web browser – without having to install additional programs like Sopcast.
Chrome Live Sport is as easy to use as the popular MyP2P website. The sports covered are Football (soccer), Tennis, Basketball, Baseball, Volleyball and Others (minor sports). The Football selection includes the English Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A and Champions League etc. The Tennis selection includes major ATP and WTA events like the US Open etc.
There is also the option to just view live scores but this covers Football only.
Chrome Live Sport is free and can be downloaded from the Google Chrome Web Store here – after installing you should see a picture of a football in the top right of Chrome.
Click on the football to display two menu options – click on Live Stream (for video feeds) or Live Score (for football scores):
Live Stream: The live stream selection window pops up as shown in the example below:
livesport
  • To make it easier to check what’s on, change the time in the top right to GMT + or – however many hours you need to match your local time zone. The clock will change too and should match your current time.
  • Select your desired sport (Football or Tennis etc) from the menu to display the schedule for today’s current and future events.
  • Click the Video button of the event you want to watch and hopefully you will see one or more links to live video streams. The links are called Link #1 and Link #2 etc and there are often several different suppliers of such feeds to choose from.
  • Click on a Link to open up the live streaming video feed in a new window – most feeds have an option to choose ‘Full Screen’ if you prefer.
Tips: Just like MyP2P, the quality of video feeds can vary considerably – if one is poor, intermittent or isn’t showing the right event, try another Link. A few feeds may state (next to the Link) that they require registration – this may require payment so try a different Link instead.
There may be no commentary or it may be in a foreign language – it just depends on where the feed is coming from. The more popular the event, the more likely there are to be multiple (and better quality) feeds.
Live Score: The Live Score selection window pops up showing today’s matches – for Football only.
  • Click on the menu bar if you want to change to ‘Live Now’ or ‘Scheduled’ or ‘Finished’ scores. The screen is updated every 5 seconds so there is no need to refresh the page.
  • Click on an actual score to reveal more info e.g. the goalscorers, time that a goal was scored and any yellow/red cards.
Where Do The Streaming Videos Come From?
The Live Sport extension developers say they do not host any video streams on their server i.e. Live Sport just lists the feeds and links to them like MyP2p.eu does – the feeds themselves are hosted elsewhere on the internet. Providing the links in an easily accessible format means you don’t have to scour the internet looking for them.
Whether the actual feeds are strictly legal is anyone’s guess – it depends who provides them. This is similar to MyP2P but to be accepted into the Chrome Web Store we assume that Google are happy that the Live Sport extension itself is safe to use.

Apple apparently kills Windows PC support in Safari 6.0

With the launch of Safari 6.0 for OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion and the release of a 6.0 update for existing Safari users on OS 10.7 Lion, Apple appears to have shelved efforts to continue developing Safari for Windows. 
The previous version of Safari 5.1.7 for Windows is still available for download on a special support page, but all mention of a PC version of the web browser have been scrubbed from the company's main website. 

Searching for "Safari" from Apple's website currently brings up the former headline in the Quick Search results (shown below), saying, "Safari for Mac + PC. The fastest easiest-to-use browser in the world, now available for Mac + PC."



However, when you arrive at the apple.com/safari page it directs you to, there's only information on the latest 6.0 version of Safari, highlighting features unique to the new version, including its unified Smart Search field, Tab View, iCloud Tabs, Sharing, Offline Reading List, and improvements for Chinese users, none of which are available in the existing Windows version. 

At the bottom of the page, Apple notes, "the latest version of Safari is available in Mountain Lion. The latest version of Safari for Lion is available through Software Update." There is no longer any direct download link supplied for Safari 6.0, although Apple's site continues to list download links of Safari Extensions. 

Apple focuses on Safari for OS X, iOS 

Apple's Steve Jobs first announced Windows PC support in Safari 3.0 at Macworld Expo in 2007. The primary goal of that new version was to push the adoption of modern, standards-based browsing by making Safari's WebKit browser widely available as an alternate to Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Mozilla's Firefox (originally Phoenix) browser built on the ashes of Netscape.

However, while adoption of Safari among PC users has been limited, Google's free Chrome browser, based on the same WebKit engine as Safari, has achieved wide distribution, virtually erasing the need for Apple to develop and support its own browser for Windows. 

Additionally, Apple's subsequent success with iOS, paired with the nearly unanimous use of WebKit by other mobile platform vendors (including Nokia, RIM, Palm, Google and others) has effectively made WebKit the only significant mobile web browser engine.

By terminating support for the Windows platform, Apple can focus on the development of features unique to its own platforms, as represented by many of the unique features in Safari 6.0. Apple is still supporting continued, open development of WebKit on a variety of different platforms. 

Downloads for other Windows software, including iTunes, QuickTime and Bonjour printer support, are still available and do not appear to have changed. Some Apple web pages, including the QuickTime page for Windows downloads, still link to "Safari for Mac + PC," but those links all now direct to information that only applies to Mac and iOS devices.

1 Malaysia broadband package for as low as RM20


   

The 1Malaysia Broadband Affordable Package, which can be subscribed for as low as RM20 per month, will be made available in Sabah, Sarawak, Terengganu, Kelantan and Pahang from Sept 16.

Information Communication and Culture Minister Rais Yatim said the package was being introduced as the five states had yet to reach the national broadband penetration rate of 64 per cent.

"We hope the subscription price is given in accordance with the quality, voice clarity and other aspects contained in the telecommunication company's client's charter," he told reporters after the launch of the package in Kuala Lumpur today.

He said if the package received a favourable response, it would also be introduced to other states.

The 1Malaysia Broadband Affordable Package offered for as low as RM20 per month for wireless network and as low as RM38 per month for wired network, is a part of the government's initiatives to close the digital gap among the people in the country. 

The wireless network provides a minimum speed rate of 512kbps with 1GB capacity, while the wired network provides a minimum rate of 384kbps with unlimited capacity.

In his speech earlier, Rais also called on all telecommunication companies in the country to improve their broadband services, especially in the states that had yet to reach the national broadband penetration rate.

Meanwhile, Celcom Axiata Bhd chief executive officer Shazalli Ramly said the cooperation between the company and the government was not only fostered in support of the ministry's mission, but also as a part of the company's corporate social responsibility to meet the demands of the people.

"The collaboration and cooperation that we have together with the ministry and the MCMC (Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission) have proved that this industry, is one of the most robust, and yet most progressive, among other industries in Malaysia," he added.

How to install Windows Xp to HP mini netbook by using USB drive


Before I start my tutorial, let’s make it clear, the most common problem that people fail to install is the blue screen came out before the windows screen appear. This is due to Windows Xp is unable to boot the Sata drive and thus you need to integrate the SATA drive into the windows Xp installer. The tutorial I made it here is a few simple steps to integrate the SATA drive before the windows os installation.

You need to download these three software before you proceed with windows installation:
Nlite – this is the software I mentioned and it’s use to integrate the SATA driver into the windows installer. Download it here.
WintoFlash – it is use to transfer the Xp installation files to pendrive so that you can boot the pendrive and use it to format and install the windows to your netbook. Download it here.
Download the Sata driver here:
1 or 2

After that, follow the steps below:

1.Insert your windows installer CD to the cd room.
2.Open Nlite, search the allocated CD drive like mine is D:
3.Then click next, and create a new folder to save the installation files into it.
4.After the process complete, an interface will come out and choose integrate driver.
5.Extract the SATA driver you download just now by double click and please remember the file name. Then please search the file in c:\swsetup\SP37005.
6.Go back to Nlite and click insert multiple driver folders and choose the folder SP37005.
7.Choose all by pressing CTRL + A then click OK.
8.Click next and let the Nlite do the remaining process. Until here, you already done for making a complete windows installer.
9.For those AVG antivirus users, please close your AVG programme before the following steps.
10.Open WintoFlash.exe and click next. Choose the folder where you store your windows installer just now. Then choose your allocated USB drive as well.
11.Let’s the transferring process finish itself and this might take about 15-20 minutes.
12.After that, unplug your USB pendrive and plug it into your Hp mini. Press ESC then f9 before the booting process.
13.Choose to boot your USB drive, Then a screen will appear and you have two options.
14.Choose the text option and install XP as usual.
15.After that, the netbook will restart and please boot again your USB drive. This time choose the other option which is the GUI option.
16.A windows Xp screen will appeal and just follow the remaining commands.
17.Congratulation. You are done!!!

Caution: Do not open too many programmes because it might interrupt the file transferring process.
