Oddly enough, Playing The Angel is a return to form for Depeche Mode, even though it may well be argued that they never truly deviated from their roots in their more recent offerings. In the

Poe rocked my world with "Angry Johnny" (I want to kill you/I want to blow you/Away) and "Trigger Happy Jack" (Trigger Happy Jack/ You're gonna blow/But I'm gonna get off/Before you go), as powe

"Black Milk" knocks me off my feet in this collection of moody and eclectic songs. Massive Attack uses samples and keyboards in a very unique way, but not all the songs pack the same punch.

For those of you who don't know, Chicago didn't always suck, and everyone in the band didn't always play a keyboard. When the band started off they were pioneers of rock and jazz fusion, and guita

iTunes: Deleting iPhone Apps
Sunday, July 20th, 2008 at 4:00 PM - by Jeff Gamet
The App Store is loaded with extra applications for the iPhone and iPod touch, and Apple did a great job of making it easy to download and install all of those programs. The problem is that not every app you download is something you want to keep, and deleting something from your handheld doesnt necessarily mean it will go away when you sync.
Instead of starting with your iPhone or iPod touch to delete unwanted applications, start with iTunes and do this:
- Select the Applications Library
- Control-click or Right-click on an application you want to delete.
- Choose Delete from the pop-up menu.
- Click Remove when iTunes asks if you really want to remove the application from your Library.
- iTunes will ask what you want to do with the deleted application. Click Move to Trash if you want to remove the application from your hard drive, or click Keep Files if you want to keep the application, but remove it from your iTunes Library.
![]() Control-click to delete an application. |

![]() Send apps to the Trash to remove them from your hard drive. |

Now connect your iPhone or iPod touch to your computer. iTunes will display an alert because your handheld and iTunes Application Library no longer match. To make sure your deleted application stays that way, click Dont Transfer. Clicking Transfer will copy the just-deleted application from your handheld back into your iTunes Application Library undoing the delete process you just went through.
![]() Dont Transfer keeps iTunes from copying deleted apps from your handheld. |

Deleting App Store downloads you no longer want isnt quite as straight forward a process as it could be, but it is easy to follow once you figure it out. Maybe Apple will surprise us with an iTunes update that makes it simpler to delete those unwanted apps.
