Fixing flash video playback in FirefoxDo YouTube and other Flash-based
videos stutter when you view them in Firefox, but work fine in other
browsers like Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Safari? This appears to be
a problem that affects both the Windows and Mac versions of Firefox, and

Song Sergeant whips your music library into shape

Song Sergeant whips your music library into shape

Song Sergeant is an OS X app that cleans up problems with your iTunes
library. Duplicate songs, orphaned files in your iTunes folders, and
missing songs are no match for Song Sergeant. It scans and fixes your
library, allowing you to manually decide what to do about each
individual file, or just taking quick, ruthless automagical action if

every change it suggests, your library will probably end up
significantly tidier than before. Where Song Sergeant really shines is

duplicate, you can keep the audio from one file and the song info from
the other.
