I was. Not that I have statistics in it but but in my experience most people, most of the time, just chose erase. People don't know what the secure option is and they don't need it in order to wipe...

Sorry, Makosuke: I was trying to be clever and got tangled. I'd intended to write this elegant paragraph about one week in this year and one week in another, and completely blew it. I've corrected it...

Do still backup your iPhone and iPads via iTunes: it seems a pain now, even if we were fine with it before iCloud, but it means you get a complete copy of your data which is then easy to restore to...

I've not tried connecting those myself but I understand there are plugins that will do it. From a quick search online I can only find paid ones but whatever they're doing, they must be exchanging...

Wdswong, you got my hopes up there – until I checked the video files I had been trying to copy over. They are already named in the DOS 8.3 format. And you're right, I'd done both the FAT and the DCIM...

Nyreal,

It is you who asked me this on Twitter, isn't it? Good: I've been thinking about the answer I got into my tweets back and I'm glad of a chance to say a bit more.

I said to you that the...

No, you can have parts or sections but then only chapters. Yet the way you say this makes me suspect it'd be something that was useful when you're writing and I only do the most minor text changes in...

Sorry, I only thought to put a link back to the previous article. That was daft of me. Thanks for spotting it and I've now added links to each part.

Thank you, Inkling, that made my day. And Quebit, modest? Moi?

Wait until you see what I've picked of everyone else's: I really did have a hard time choosing but there was also no way I was going...

I'm keen on Scrivener too but I'm not persuaded: you say it's good enough and that there will be an iOS version. But there isn't one yet and it's already years behind its estimates. Whereas...

I like the minimalism of that site but you're right: I just went to check its FAQ and that takes minimalism a bit far. I should've answered these questions in my piece: sorry.

Hi, Mike's right: sorry, I was comparing not just the different official Twitter apps but many permutations of OS X and iOS clients. And I got it wrong. I've corrected the piece now: thanks very much...

I wrote that Sue Doku review and I've not even heard of X-Wing or swordfsh before – I just went off to read about them and that's so interesting, thank you – but I've always solved Sue Doku games...

Oh, I am so with you on Word. The things that app does to text could make you turn to drink. So while I really do think Acrobat's conversion from PDF to it is remarkable that is more in a technically...

Hi,

I did write this piece and there is no part of it that I meant more than where I said it was great to see it surviving. Nisus survives because of its fans, I think, and they are right. They...

I've put off thinking about this because I like my iPhone 5 a lot and both versions of the 6 seemed so big at first. Yet each time I pass an Apple Store, they look better and better – and, weirdly,...
