In this video I just wanted to show all the iPhone users out there how to utilize specific programs on MAC OS X to get their iPhone ringtones for free. It can be any song you want! However you must have Mac OS X and some of the programs that come preinstalled, like iLife. This is an incredibly simple process that can be done in a matter of minutes and is completely worth it if you want your favourite tunes to be played every time someone gives you a dingle. Let me know in the comments what you think! You just need 4 things!

1. iPhone
2. Garage Band 09
3. iTunes
4. Audio Files!

I just wanted to quickly show you guys how to use the application Handbrake. When I did my Top Ten apps for Mac OS X video, a lot of people were asking me about it. So I figured I would do a quick tutorial, and I am back up in HD now as well. I hope you like, remember to rate, comment and subscribe.

This video will show all the people who upgraded to the 3.0 software and lost their jailbreak, how to get their jailbreak back again. It is a very simple process using a program called RedSnow. RedSnow can be downloaded at the following links:

This is a quick video I did to show you guys how to get iPod 3.0 software without having to pay for it. it is quick, easy and simple. All you need is iTunes 8.2 and an active internet connection. Some people like me an other iPod touch users didn’t really want to pay for the update, because I think it is stupid that iPhone users don’t have to and we do. So I searched for a torrent for a while on my torrent sites like ISOhunt and PirateBay, and finally came across a working order of all versions of the update. This is not the Beta, this is that actual official release. Enjoy.

So I thought I would do a quick tutorial on how to get a great customized YouTube background. This isnt to hard to get at all. I have done the work and given you the PSD document. All you have to do now is open it up in a program like Adobe Photoshop or Gimp (Free) and edit out the text and logos, then upload it to YouTube!

This is a video in which I talk about my recent plunge into Mac OS X from Windows Vista. This is a question that has been floating around alot out there. Many people have asked and answered it, but it is different for everyone. Jgregs93 has asked me how my ‘plunge’ into Mac OS X was. So I thought I would do a little video response. My switch was interesting, and for the most part it has been a breeze. I mention that on Mac there are no driver installations or any leg work like that. But enough with the description because no one ever really reads the description. Enjoy.

http://www.dimcoproductions.com I have been getting a lot of questions from people asking me how they render their video files in HD so that when they upload them to YouTube it gives their viewers the option to watch in HD. Personally, I try to do all my videos in HD. But when I am just browsing through videos, I hardly ever click “Watch in HD”. But people seem to want to know how to do it. So here it is. This is in Adobe Premiere Pro CS3. Enjoy and remember to rate comment and subscribe! All you have to do is simple. Just import your footage, place it in the timeline like you would any other time. Nothing you would ever do has changed except what you do when you go to render it. Once everything is in place and you are ready to render, select file, scroll down to export and instead of clicking ‘Movie’ like you normally would. Click ‘Adobe Media Encoder’. After this is done a windows will pop up asking what kind of file you want to render in. I prefer to render in HDTV 720p it is great quality. All of the other presets should be set except you need to make sure that where it says ‘Encoding Passes’ the option that is selected is two (2). That is important. Enjoy!
