A few words about me
I'm Simon Olsen, and I have been a digital designer for over 10 years. My focus is on building a web presence, not just a website, for my clients. I've created rich and interesting web content and delivered that content across online advertising and social media for a variety of clients. This is my website.

I've just bought a new iPhone 4. This video will show you how I got all the stuff from my old iPhone 3G onto the new iPhone.

Despite a few Google attempts, I didn't find this information, so here is another short tutorial blog. If you make a mistake and your Apple App ID (Bundle Identifier) isn't EXACTLY the same as your Application ID in Flash Builder, this is how you fix it.
I had designed an iPhone App before, and the development and XCode was done by my good friend, Robert. However, I've always wanted to build mobile apps myself, both the design and the development. So now I'm getting into Flash Builder (and probably Flex as well), and this was the first time I have opened Flash Builder 4.5.1.

I had ages of trouble trying to work out how to get my Gmail signature, both on my normal Gmail and my Google Apps Gmail accounts, to appear below my response, rather than it appearing at the bottom of all the quoted text.
Before, I was scrolling to the bottom, cutting my signature and pasting it below my email, where it fricken should be!
I found the solution. All you need to do is go to your Gmail settings and go into Labs.
If you've been using your Mac Book or Mac Book Pro and the brightness of the screen has been automatically getting brighter and duller every few seconds or minutes, this is how to stop that happening.

A simple, step by step tutorial on using the green screen capabilities of iMovie '09 on a Mac. I start with the set up of your green screen (I used bright green lycra, 2m for $50 from Spotlight), enabling Advanced options in iMovie and creating the green screen effect, with various examples.

Ever plugged a USB flash drive, removable hard drive, SD card, camera, phone or other external storage device into a PC and not found it coming up in (My) Computer? More often than not, this is how you find it and make it available.
Chances are it's tried to take a drive letter (F:/, G:/ etc) that's already assigned to another device or partitioned space.
This tutorial will show you how to find the storage device you've plugged in, change the drive letter and let you access the contents of that device.
