Convert MP3 files to M4B files with Total Commander

iTunes and iPod can remember the playing positions for M4B files, so it’s good for audio books and lectures. You can convert MP4 files to M4B files with software such as MP3 to M4B Converter. But the converter crashed in my computer.

I remember there’s a audioconvertor plug-in in my Total Commander, and guessed probably it could do this job for me. Fortunately, it does!

Select MP3 files, press ALT+F5, choose audioconvertor, tune some settings, and press OK!

Add global keyboard shortcuts to iTunes with AutoHotkey Script

iTunes is good at media management, especially with its auto playlist. However, it’s not very convenient for playing music, as there’s no global keyboard shortcuts while iTunes is minimized.

An AutoHotkey Script (AutoHotkey for iTunes) gives iTunes this indispensable feature, you can download it from here.

I merged it with my existing AutoHotkey script, and now I can use keyboard to navigate and rate music.

How to change the font size in SMS composing interface

Many articles discussed how to change the font size in SMS composing interface, and most of them said the font size was defined in compose_style.css which can be located in /Windows.

I tested in my mobile(Windows Mobile 6.0), and it works.

Updated:  I upgraded my mobile to WM 6.1, it does work too.

Improper closing of outlook makes the data stores (the top folders) in a mess, even with blank names.

I googled a lot, but find nothing to solve this, except creating a new profile. The details of a profile are stored in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles, but the names of the keys have little meaning to help me catch their usage.

Fortunately, finally I found a freeware which could help to repair the profiles of outlook. If you have the same agony on outlook’s profiles, I believe it can help. The freeware OLfix’s Download and information
