2DCraft instal the new version for ipod8/29/2023 ![]() ![]() These are welcome changes that make the iPod nano’s tiny touchscreen a bit more usable. To use the Compilations list, you’ll want to enable the new setting, under Music in Settings, to group compilations.) (You can also access Audiobooks, Podcasts, and iTunes U from within Music. You now access the Genius Mixes, Playlists, Artists, Albums, Songs, Genres, and Composers items-as well as the new Compilations-via menus within the Music app. With iPod nano software 1.2, most of these items are still available as options, but the default Home screen configuration contains 11 or fewer: Now Playing, Music, Radio, Fitness, Clock, Photos, Audiobooks, Podcasts, iTunes U, Voice Memos (if a microphone is attached), and Settings. iPod nano software versions 1.0 and 1.1 offered up to 17 different app-like icons: Playlists, Now Playing, Artists, Genius Mixes, Radio, Podcasts, Photos, Settings, Songs, Albums, Genres, Composers, Fitness, Clock, Audiobooks (if you’d synced one or more audiobooks to the iPod), iTunes U (if you’d synced one or more iTunes U audio courses), and Voice Memos (if a microphone was attached). One consequence of this new one-icon-at-a-time interface is that to avoid endless swiping, Apple has eliminated a good number of icons. The nano with software version 1.1 (left) and 1.2 (right) It’s also much easier to tap a particular icon, especially when walking or exercising. While the app icons and background appearance are otherwise identical, the new interface feels more like Apple’s Cover Flow feature, as you always see the edge of the icons to the left and right of the current one. The first is that instead of displaying four tiny icons per screen, the nano now displays only a single, much larger icon at a time as before, you swipe left or right to view other icons, and tap an icon to access its functions. Version 1.2 of the iPad nano software maintains the iOS-like interface, but with a few significant changes. However, the nano’s tiny screen meant that, with four tiny icons per screen, it was easy to accidentally tap the wrong icon. For example, it was ideal for flicking through and zooming photos, tuning and setting presets for the built-in FM tuner, scrubbing through tracks, rating tracks, and editing playlists. As I noted in my review of the original sixth-generation nano, this new iOS-like, touchscreen approach was a significant improvement over the traditional Click Wheel interface for many tasks. ![]()

![]() ![]() Brighty had already made attempts of the conversion at the Lulworth Armoured Fighting School in early 1943. Massive delays also began to appear in the development of the official projects which were meant to mount the new gun. Despite reports and refusals, they managed to pursue the project by themselves and eventually get the concept accepted. It finally happened largely due to the efforts and perseverance of two officers, British Major George Brighty, with the help of Lieutenant Colonel Witheridge, an experienced veteran of the North African campaign and wounded at Gazala. The idea of putting the 17 Pounder (76.2 mm/3 in) on a Sherman was long opposed by the Ministry of Supply. Preserved Firefly, showing its camouflaged barrel, as seen in 2008. Mated with the Sherman, this stopgap combination (before the new generation of Allied tanks could enter service) became lethal, and added its own weight to the Allied effort to secure victory. However, the British Army had just received the superlative 17 pounder, which proved itself able to nail any known Panzer. But facing the latest versions of the Panzer IV, the Panther and Tiger, it was woefully inadequate. Its basic 75 mm (2.95 in) gun was excellent to deal with other tanks at reasonable ranges and against armor up to 75 mm (2.95 in), or against fortifications and infantry. If you spot anything out of place, please let us know! ![]() Hello dear reader! This article is in need of some care and attention and may contain errors or inaccuracies. At that time, the “basic” M4 Sherman equipped the Allies almost exclusively, from the US to the British, Canadian, ANZACS, Free Polish and Free French forces, and its limitations were well known before 1944. Tank Destroyer – Approximately 2,000 Built Turning the Sherman into a killerįrom the hedgerow of Normandy, France, to the hills of Italy and the plains of Netherlands, the Firefly was one of the few Allied tanks the Germans learned to fear… Among the most potent Allied conversion of the war, and certainly one of the deadliest version of the Sherman, it was a clever -although risky and improvised- move to try to keep up with the latest German tank developments. ![]() United Kingdom/United States of America (1944) ![]()
