iPod song history
I'm sure I've missed this somewhere - how do I view the songs that I've played on my iPod (5th gen video, Windows formatted used under OS X). Must be in there somewhere.

Neil Houghton wrote: Hardware Related Issues Working from home You can connect to your WorkDESK database and work from home using any of the Remote Office hardware alternatives (Windows XP Pro Remote Desktop connection, Windows, Terminal Services, Citrix Metaframe). You can also access the WorkDESK database using 'PC Anywhere' software - purchase separately). So it sounds like you can use either of the free Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection or CoRD to connect. (The equivalent of Timbuktu or Apple's Remote Desktop) http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/remote-desktop/default.mspx http://cord.sourceforge.net/ Your connection needs to be through their VPN, so you'd need to know what the connection details are. Namely the VPN server IP address and the account name to use to log into it. Also, whether it's L2TP or PPTP. You may also need a certificate from them depending on how it's set up. So, you could probably do it without resorting to BootCamp/Parallels/VMWare, but you'd need some more info out of them which may be more painful than just running Windows.

Re: Are you an iPhone Appaholic?
My name is Eugene and I'm an addict.. Yep I've caught the bug, fortunately I limit myself to free apps but I will give strong hints for father's day that perhaps an iTunes gift voucher may give me a quick fix. It is interesting that I was on a forum and certain people were slagging the iPhone. I suggested that the iPhone was going to set itself apart because it was more like a portable computer and that if would differentiate itself from other 'smart' phones including mobile windows based ones simply because of the apps and the iTunes store.

Re: Accessing 3rd party database via VPN
Thanks to Neil H, Shay and Peter H for your thoughts on my query about accessing Workdesk. I've since found a little more info, after finding a Windows machine on which to launch the software I've been given. The software sent to me is Cisco's VPN Client, which has been sent to me in order to access the server on which I presume a Workdesk application and database is housed. So this VPN Client has nothing to do with WorkDesk itself. It's just a means of accessing the remote server (I think?). So would the MacOS have the functionality of Cisco's VPN Client built into it? What prompts me to ask that question is that I notice within my Mac's Network settings that there is a VPN (L2TP) option, which I currently have set as inactive. Could I use these settings instead of a 3rd party VPN Client? Or, do I need to obtain a Mac version of VPN Client which, according to http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/secursw/ps2308, does exist. Apart from the Windows version of the VPN Client application, I've been given a server and Workdesk login, and a Username and password.
