About to go to College have a few questions about pages....

How do i turn auto complete or w/e its called. When i use word it automatically fixes the spelling of a word i slightly spelled wrong, is there anyway to do that on pages. i already found the auto capitalization and all that stuff but still no solution to that. also, is there really no need to buy anti virus for my macbook. i know that mac os is supposed to be impenetrable but i wanna make sure this lasts. thanks

There is not an auto-complete in Pages as there is in Word. You have found the Auto-correction preferences which is not the same thing.
There are some third-party programs you can use such as Typinator, TypeIt4Me & TextExpander. Do a search on MacUpdate or VersionTracker. I use Typinator because I got it with a MacUpdate Promo bundle. These have the advantage of working in any program with text input.

Have a few questions about iPad before I get one

I have a few questions about getting an ipad before I committ to get one.
I have about 24 gb of itunes purchases in my itunes library, I am thinking of getting the 64 gb ipad. However, after you purchase the 64 gb, it will not truly be 64 gb,
1) how much actual storage space would I have on a 64 gb ipad accounting for the os? On my macbook now I have a 164 gb hard drive but only access to about 148 gb for example.
2) Would I be able to store the 24 gb of itunes purchases in icloud? How would I do that? Would I keep needing to go into the Purchase History tab in the ITunes store and download the song when I want to listen to it? My concern with this is that the item will no longer be "available in the Itunes store" and I will lose access to my music I purchased?
I would like to ditch the laptop and just have the ipad as my computer but want to know about these questions I have first.
3) Can ipad and iphone now be charged without needing a laptop? Per last year's June 2011 conference when Lion and ICloud were announced, it was stated in Fall 2011 with iOS5 that people could get ipads and iphones and charge them without needing a laptop for syncing?

1. About 57 on mine
2. Subscribe to iTunes Match at a cost of about $25 per year - 25000 song limit I think

3. The iPad comes with a power adapter that plugs into a wall socket and that is the recommended way to charge it anyway. - not by using a computer

You do not absolutely need a computer in order to use an iPad but you have to do more research to figure out if it will fit your needs that way.

I am now running Windows 7 Ultimate on my Macbook Pro and the through VMware Fusion Software and I have a few questions about the ins and outs.

So far I have a few kinks to work out. While running Internet Explorer 8, I get the error message, " Cannot connect to the internet." In Networks on the control panel, it says that I am connected to a local area public network but there is no internet access. How do I establish a connection to my existing network which works with the mac os? Also, of course, programs like Adobe, Quick Time Player, and uTorrent/bitorrent are already installed on my computer. Do I have to download them again on windows or can I import them or share them somehow?

I am about to run specialized GIS software that may or may not need the full machine resources. I am an attorney who uses QuickBooks for my accounting. The Mac version does not do as much as the Windows version. This is from both Apple and Quick Books professionals. I am using Parallels Desktop version 8 at this time. It does not support QuickBooks Windows version per Parallels. Any other questions? I am a highly competent PC user who is new to Macs. I am entitled to my own configuration choices. That said, I know when I need help which is now.
As to the free space issue I have 665.18 GB free space out of 749.3 GB on the drive. I am not trying to run the 32 bit version. I know that it requires the 64 bit version. Besides, it does not get that far in the process. As I said Boot Camp asssitant terminates unexpectedly as soon as you hit the continue button after setting the partition size. Therefore I conclude that it does not have a chance to see which version of Windows that I am using. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit version in the virtual engine (to use Parallels speak), but again Boot Camp would not see that since it is not running. It can't run at the momenet because Apple just installed a new hard drive and I have just restored the data from TIme Machine and Parallels needs reactivated, which I have not done yet deliberatley. With all of this addtiional information do you have any further suggestions? Thanks for your time and interest my issue.

I have a few questions about iCloud....

1-Is the only way there is to save docuemnts is by using the proper version of say Pages, and save it to iCloud? There isn't a vistual hardisk such as iDisk where I cam store my docuemnts, or pictures, or whatever, and pull them down from anywhere? If there is, where is it located?
2-My wife had an iCLoud account, which is on her phone but not being used for anything. I have one on out iPad. Now we have taken pictures with both the phone and the iPad and some images are listed as being part of our photo stream and some aren't even though there is nothin i did, (knowingl) different from picture to picture. Why are some in the photo stream and some aren't?
3-Still about photos. I don't have a desire right now to have a photo stream and when I try to turn off the Photo Stream it tells me those images will be deleted from the device. Why is that? What is the work around to take them off o out of the stream and keep them on the device? And I know for a fact I nevert turned the stream on because I don't need or want my images being sent out and about, so this is irksome to me.
4-My wife has an iCloud account on her phone but for future use to stream music, but I have my iCal updated to my work computer, iPad and my MacBook Pro. I wanted my iCal info to be on her phone and it seemed no way for that information to merge onto her account. So I then thought I would just take her iCloud account off the phone and put mine on. Seems no way to do that either. Am I missing something obvious here?
Thanks in advanced.

This article provides some alternatives to iDisk: http://www.peachpit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1751378.
If the photos that were not added to photo stream are photos that were on your device before your tuned photo stream on, that's the reason. Photo stream only uploads photos take after turning it on. It should automatically upload photos when you are connected to wifi, have the camera app closed, and have at least 20% battery life remaining. If that isn't the reason, then I don't know why some of your photos weren't added.
To turn off photo stream and keep your photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll first. To do this, open your my photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap the photos you want to save, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll. After they are in the camera roll, you can turn off photo stream.
If the calendar you want to share with your wife is in iCloud, you can share that with her as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a8694. If you ever want to change her iCloud account, just go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign into the account you want to use. You can also set up a second ("secondary") iCloud account on her phone by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud. (You could, for example, add your account to her phone as a secondary account and just turn on contacts syncing in the secondary account.)

I have a few questions about Airport...

Hi.
Recently, I've just started to use my internet connection wirelessly via Airport. I'm a bit nervous about my security. I'm using a WPA Personal password type (which is very long and contains multiple text and number characters) in order to access my router's network distribution.
Am I right in thinking that, if any neighbouring persons wished to connect to my wireless network, they would need my WPA Personal password in which to do so?
Also, if somebody was to connect to my wireless network, how can I monitor them, and others who may be connected (i.e. how can I obtain their IP address, computer name, network name, etc)?
Thanks for your time,
onlyone-jc.

You are absolutely correct in your assumption that with WPA implamented.
It is not possible for anyone to access your network without you first giving them your password. They are able to see your network name but thats all they can do. This is the same with your computer, you can go up to your Airport Signal Strength Meter and see any Network in range of your computer.
There are several different programs available at.

You will have to search through to find exactly what all is available.
There are different programs that give you several different options

Have a few questions about photos

I made a few folders on my mac to help separate my pictures for easier navigation. I wanted to know how to change the album cover photo. The picture right now is a picture of that flower. I wanted to make the album cover one of the pictures in the folder. Is that possible???
Also, do I have to keep those new folders on my mac? I'm guessing I have to. Since you have to keep anything you sync onto your phone on the computer otherwise it deletes next time you sync it

You can't change the icon of the iPhone's Photos application, or the icon for the iPhone's Photo Library, which is where all photos transferred from your computer are stored.
I use iPhoto on my Mac for importing photos from a digital camera and for photo storage and management. With an iPhoto Event or Album, you can designate a photo within the Event or Album to be the photo for the Event or Album, which will be transferred to your iPhone when syncing photos with iPhoto. I'm not sure if the same is available when manually managing photos on your Mac and if so, how this is done.
If you delete photos from your computer's hard drive that are selected to be transferred to your iPhone after transferring the photos to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process, the photos will be deleted from your iPhone with the next sync.

I have a few questions about the warrenty for the iPhone 4

I just called technical support and they said since the vibrate on my phone is broken, they would send me a used phone, no cost to me. However, I have to send back my current phone and they said if they find out that I was the reason the phone is broken that they would have to charge me $300 for sending me the used one.
How could they know if it was my fault? As far as I know the vibrate just stopped working one day. What would have to be wrong with the phone for them to be positive that it was my fault? If they do come to the conclusion that it is my fault, how do they charge me? Can I cancel the order for the new one and just keep my old one?
My phone has minimal scratches on it, looks like it is practically brand new. If i receive the replacement phone tomorrow and change my mind, can I send it back with the prepaid label they send me?
Sure I would love a phone with vibrate in working condition but if it is going to cost me $300, I can deal without it.

@Dougnvic, no need to worry because I'm here to help! The vibrate function is very important especially when you're in a situation where you cannot have the ringer turned on.
If we replace your phone through the warranty you are only charged for the equipment if there is any damage on the phone. The normal wear and tare is expected and you will not be billed for the phone because of these scratches.
Once the phone is received it is inspected for any physical or liquid damage. If damage is found you are then billed for the phone and the charge will appear on your bill. You will also receive a text message advising you of the charge. Once you are billed the charge cannot be removed even if you return the replacement.
If you change your mind and do not want to have the phone replaced you can just return the replacement once you receive it and keep your current phone. Just use the prepaid return label that will be inside the box of the replacement.
If you are sure there hasn't been any damage then there is nothing to worry about. You will not be charged. You can also take the phone into a store and have a store representative take a look at the phone before you return it, if that makes you feel better.

PLEASE HELP! Just switched to Mac and I have a few questions about bootcamp

I am looking to load Boot Camp onto my MacBook and want to know if it is necessary to save things like songs to an external hard drive(the computer is new so i don't have any important documents or files on it).
Second Question: I would consider myself somewhat of an intermediate user on the PC operating system but I am new to Mac and want to know if I should run Boot Camp on my own knowing just the basics of Mac.
Thanks for any help,
-Cody
Florida

If you have nothing important, don't worry. If you want to save the songs to an external hard drive do so. The key is being aware that you could lose everything, so you should back up anything and everything you don't want to lose. If you can't afford to lose the songs, back them up somewhere. If it were me, I would back up the entire computer, just in case, but that's me. Just be sure to unplug the external hard drive before commencing the Windows installation.
As for running Boot Camp on your own, I don't see why not. Most of the problems people have is not with Boot Camp per se but with the installation of Windows. In particular, take care to not overwrite or break your Leopard installation by selecting the wrong disk partition to install Windows on, and make sure you then format (or quick format) the Boot Camp partition to FAT or NTFS. Do not choose the "convert to NTFS" option!

Need help with Java, have a few questions about my Applet

Purpose of the program: To create a mortgage calculator that will allow the user to input the loan principal then select 1 of 3 choices from a combo-box (7 years @ 5.35%, 15 years @ 5.50%, 30 years @ 5.75%).
Problem: My program was working properly (so I thought). I can get the program to properly compile and run through TextPad. However, I noticed that when the user clicks the calculate more than once (with the same input), it slightly alters the output calculations. So that is my first question, Why is it doing that? How can I get it only calculate that information once unless the user changes it etc?
My next question is regarding my exit button. I was told by my instructor (who has already stated he won't help any of us) that my exit button does not work for an applet and only for an application. So, how can I create an exit button that will work with an applet? I thought I did it right but I can't find any resources online for this.
Next question, why isn't my program properly validating invalid input? My program should only allow numeric input and nothing more.
And last question, when invalid input is entered and the user clicks calculate, why isn't my JOptionPane window for error messages not displaying?
I know my code is a little long so I have to post this in two messages. Please don't criticize me for what I am doing, that is why I am learning and have come to this forum for help. Thanks

I have a few questions about 5th gen ipod

My iPod has a very sluggish transfer rate for my music and I wanna connect it with the firewire cable I got with my old mini. When I do I get a message saying it's not supported on the ipod. Does anyone know if that is just me or if there is a firmware update.
Also I have both a iMac G4 flat panel and a Dell Inspiron 5100 laptop. I've had some video problems with my iMac(as you might have seen) and I am thinking of selling it on ebay, does anyone know how I can transfer the music from the mac to the windows laptop without networking or installing the ipod on the windows and transferring through that?
Help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Linda
iMac G4 17 inch screen Mac OS X (10.3.9) iPod Video black, iPod Mini grey, Dell Inspiron 5100 laptop/ Windows XP SP2

When I do I get a message saying it's not supported on the ipod. Does anyone know if that is just me or if there is a firmware update.
The 5th Gen iPods do not support Firewire for data transfer. You can only charge via Firewire. This is not a firmware issue. There's no firewire controller in the 5th Gen iPod.
does anyone know how I can transfer the music from the mac to the windows laptop without networking or installing the ipod on the windows and transferring through that?
Your iMac probably has a CD-RW drive. If so, just burn the tracks as a Data/MP3 CD, and then import that CD into your iTunes library on the Windows machine. You can fit hundreds of tracks on a DATA/MP3 CD.

Few questions about syncing

Hi,
I have a few questions about syncing. Since this is my first iphone and apple product, I'm not familliar with it. My mother bought the tomtom app for navigation. And she said that it has 3 uses (for 3 different devices). Now the app is in her library on her computer. So if i try to sync with her library, it will erase all my previous apps. How come? Also I'm planning to use a laptop in college so I'll have to sync it with that.
What should I do to keep my apps?

All 3rd party apps - paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account used to download the app. This is required by 3rd party app developers to prevent people from stealing from them with paid apps. If not for this, you could pay for and download the TomTom app which is not cheap and all your friends and family members with an iPhone could install the app on their iPhone without paying for it, which in effect is stealing.
There is no device limit for the number of iPods and iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library on the same computer, but in regards to all iTunes content - music, movies, tv shows, and 3rd party apps, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.

A few questions about Patone colors

I have a few questions about patone colors since this is the first time I use them. I want to use them to create a letterhead and business cards in two colors.
1)
I do understand that the uncoated is more washed out than the coated patone colors. I heard that this is because the way paper absorbs the inkt. This is why the same inkt results in different colors on different paper (right?). My question is why is the patone uncoated black so much different than normal black (c=0 m=0 y=0 k=100) or rich black:
When I print a normal document with cmyk, I can get pretty dark black colors. Why is it that I cannot have that dark black color with patone colors? Even text documents printed on a cheap printer can get a darker color than the Patone color. It just looks way too grey for me.
2) For a first mockup, I want to print the patone colors as cmyk (since I put like 10 different colors on a page for fast comparison). I know that these cmyk colors differ from the patone colors and that I cannot get a 100% representation. But is there a way to convert patone to cmyk values?
I hope that some of you can help me out with my questions.
Thanks.

You can get Pantone's CMYK tints in Illustrator, (Swatches Panel > Open Swatch Library > Color Books > PANTONE+ Color Bridge Coated or Uncoated) but in my view, what's the point? If you're printing to a digital printer, just use RGB (HSB) or CMYK. Personally, I never use Pantone's CMYK so-called "equivalents."
Pantone colors are all mixed pigmented inks, many of which fluoresce beyond the gamut limits of RGB and especially CMYK. The original Pantone Matching System (PMS) was created for the printing industry. It outlined pigmented ink formulations for each of its colors.
Most digital printers (laser or inkjet) use CMYK. The CMYK color gamut is MUCH SMALLER than what many mixed inks, printed on either coated or uncoated papers can deliver. When you specify non-coated Pantone ink in AI, according to Pantone's conversion tables, AI tries to "approximate" what that color will look like on an uncoated sheet, using CMYK. -- In my opinion, this has little relevance to real-world conditions, and is to be avoided in most situations.
If your project is going to be printed on a printing press with spot Pantone inks, then by all means, use Pantone colors. But don't trust the screen colors; rather get a Pantone swatch book and look at the actual inks on both coated and uncoated papers, according to the stock you will use on the press.
With the printing industry rapidly dwindling in favor of the web and inkjet printers, Pantone has attempted to extend its relevance beyond the pull-date by publishing (in books and in software alliances, with such as Adobe) its old PMS inks, and their supposed LAB and CMYK equivalents. I say "supposed" because again, RGB monitors and CMYK inks can never be literally equivalent to many Pantone inks. But if you're going to print your project on a printing press, Pantone inks are still very relevant as "spot colors."
I also set my AI Preferences > Appearance of Black to both Display All Blacks Accurately, and Output All Blacks Accurately. The only exception to this might be when printing on a digital printer, where there should be no registration issues.
Rich black in AI is a screen phenomenon, unless in Prefs > Appearance of Black, you also specify "Output All Inks As Rich Black," -- something I would NEVER do if outputting for an actual printing press. I always set my blacks in AI to "Output All Blacks Acurately" when outputting for a press. If you fail to do this, then on the press you will see any minor registration problems, with C, M, and Y peeking out, especially around black type. UGH!
Good luck! :+)

Few questions about iPhone 4S

Hi,
Recently I got an iPhone 4S, it is my first new phone in a long time, before this I had an old nokia, so I just have a few questions about it.
I havve read a alot of horror stories about the 4S battery life, mine seems ok, here is what I would like to know
1) How long should a healthy battery last?
2) how long should it take to charge to 100% from 1 or 2%?
On my daily commute I use listen it to music and sometimes user twiiter/facebook. I also get alerted of emails when they come in. So far it has just about lasted just about two days maybe before I had to recharge. Is this about right? As stated above I am coming from an old nokia, which is very dated now but the battery lasted almost a week before I had to charge, so having to charge my phone this often is new to me. My iPhone is really great and I just don't want any problems. I have turned off all extras that I don't need.
BTW are the iPhone 4S battery issues a software or hardware issue?
Thanks

I attempted to read your post, but in amongst all the random, unrelated waffling, I couldn't actually find exactly what your iPhone related question for this "Using iPhone" forum was.
Would you like to clarify? Concisely.

Few questions about recovery on P100-400

Good evening all,
I have a few questions about recovering my laptop...
So, I was thinking if the only way to clean my entire disk is to use the Recovery DVD?
I ask this because I think that the computer becomes too "heavy" with all the applications it came with. So I was wondering if I can format the Hard Drive instead of recover it.
If I format the drive do I loose warranty? Is there any future problem related to genuine software?
It's possible to install Windows XP Pro (and not the actual windows xp media center) with the original Operative system's product key?
Thank you.
Best Regards.

Hello
I will try to give you few answers and I hope it will help you.

I do not understand what you mean with I can format the Hard Drive instead of recover it but you can do follow: install OS using delivered recovery media and after doing this remove all applications you do not need. After doing this maybe your notebook will not be heavy anymore.
> If I format the drive do I loose warranty?
NO.
> Is there any future problem related to genuine software?
I do not know what you mean exactly
> It's possible to install Windows XP Pro (and not the actual windows xp media center) with the original Operative system's product key?
No. Something like this is not possible. Product key belongs to delivered and preinstalled OS.
