Roku Custom Settings

I’d noticed that the screensaver I was using on my Roku, which showed the current time and weather conditions on a blank screen, was inaccurate for my area. I decided to Google for an answer, and found one.

Apparently a few apps have custom settings that you access not inside the specific channel itself, but within the Settings menu from the main screen.

It just seemed a little odd that custom settings could only be accessed here. I thought I’d share the info for anyone else who’s looking for the info.

Opting Out, and Updating

I have a couple of useful links I wanted to be sure to share.

Verizon recently contacted their customers to make them aware of a change in their policies: they’re going to start tracking cellphone activity, including location, and what webpages are being accessed. To opt out of this intrusive turn of events, let Lifehacker show you how.

There’s an annoying component to iTunes that people tend to dismiss when syncing their i-device of choice, until it interferes with their functionality of said device. When you plug an existing i-device into a new desktop computer or laptop on which there is no existing archive of your iTunes library, the act of syncing the content will remove whatever music and apps you had on your i-device previous to the sync. There’s a way around that, and Lifehacker has an entry on the process.
