We depend on our gadgets and devices so much these days… so what happens when one is lost or stolen? Are we out the money and our data? Philip emailed to tell me about an open-source piece of software that can help recover your MacBook should the need ever arise. But what about the rest of these devices? I had another email from Aaron, who sent along another link to help with just that!
iAlertU is free, of course, since it is completely open-source. AlertU is the first of its kind alarm system for your Apple MacBook computer. Basically iAlertU is a car alarm for your Apple Mac. iAlertU uses the built in motion to trigger the alarm and the isight to capture the image of the thief.
ihound software is a free service for up to three devices. No credit card is needed to sign up and get started, even! ihound is revolutionary software that helps protect your devices by alerting you when your USB digital device is connected to another individual’s computer.
ihound Software works on most USB devices that you need to connect to your computer to update: MP3 players, Flash Cards, Jump Drives, Phones, iPods and more.
You will know where your device is at all times via ihound Software’s “Device Tracker”. See your device’s location on a map and “Get your digital life back”. ihound Software will alert you via email as soon as someone else tries to connect your device to a computer. Once your device has been located, you can print a report for the authorities that contains your device’s information as well as the location where your device has been tracked.
Why not give it a shot? It’s free for up to three devices. I think this is definitely something you’ll be happy you have should you ever lose one of your gadgets.
