We’re heading out of town for some homegrown tomatoes from Neal’s grandmother’s garden. Have a great 4th of July!

    Another way to force iTunes to re-download is to delete the existing copy, then click the triangle to the left of the feed name while holding down Option. (On a Mac, Control on a PC.) Option-clicking the triangle makes iTunes re-download the list of episodes, including ones you have deleted. Then you can click ‘Get’ and re-download it. No need to go to the iTunes Podcast directory. (This also works for Podcasts that aren’t in the iTunes Podcast directory. Your method would not work.)

    Here is another option that I use for scrapbook printing by Creative Memories. There is a free down loadable software that has all the tools to create your pages: http://caspedia.cachefly.net/storybookcreator/download.htm
    You can read all about it here: http://www.creativememories.com/MainMenu/Our-products-and-services/Digital/StoryBook-Creator

    I am not sure if this program is made for mac, thou I do know the company and you can request they make if for you if you really want it. (Not saying they will, but I know they love user feedback so they can create something for everyone.)

    I enjoy your show Cali. I am not a “geek,” but you could say my husband is. He got my hooked on the show. :)

    Your method of going to the iTunes store page for that particular podcast usually sends you to the podcast’s website, not the iTunes page. Option clicking the disclose triangle after deleting the episode you want to replace is probably best.

    You completely missed the Remote Desktop for controlling a PC. Microsoft has a Mac Client for their built in Remote Desktop Connections.
