If you wish to use the cellular capabilities of a device, you will need a SIM (unless the carrier uses CDMA which doesn't use SIMs) and you will have to pay a cell carrier. No cell company provides service for free. The only way you will get free Internet is via WiFi to a free and open WiFi access point, as sometimes is offered in public buildings or by some businesses.

Anyone know when Apple will bring out a patch to fix the volume problem you get on mac mini after downloading OS 10.8.5

Anyone know when Apple will bring out a patch to fix the volume problem you get on mac mini after downloading OS 10.8.5?

Only Apple knows the answer to whether or not there is a verified problem and if so when will a fix be released. As is their custom, Apple does not talk about these things and the rules of these communities prohibit speculation about future udates or upgrades. It is probably safe to say if a fix is deemed necessary it will be called OS X 10.8.6.

Want to buy airport extreme, am using mountain lion. Will this work ? also, my house is 5,500 square feet all on one floor. Do I need an extender and which one?

... If I purchase an express to extend is it hard to configure as an extender?
No, AirPort Utility prompts you with step-by-step questions and makes configuration simple.
The Express and Extreme have the same transmitter power specifications, so I suggest the $99 Express as an extender, should you need one. Beware that you cannot add a second Express to wirelessly extend the network any further - as the following excerpt from Extending the range of your wireless network by adding additional Wi-Fi base stations explains:
Extended network range considerations
In the above example the primary Wi-Fi base station ➊ is out of wireless range of the extended Wi-Fi base station ➋, therefore the extended Wi-Fi base station cannot join or extend the wireless network. The extended Wi-Fi base station must be moved to a location that is within Wi-Fi range of the primary Wi-Fi base station.
Important Note
If another extended Wi-Fi base station ➋ is placed between the primary Wi-Fi base station ➊ and the extended Wi-Fi base station ➌, the extended Wi-Fi base station ➌ will not allow clients to join it. All extended Wi-Fi base stations must be in direct range of the primary Wi-Fi base station.
A "roaming network" that Bob described, in which all base stations are connected with an Ethernet cable, is by far the best alternative.

Should I buy a used G5 and which one?

I currently own a G4 (APG), 450MHz, with 1.5GBs of memory. I have never bought a used Mac, but cannot make the huge investment at this time for a new machine. I've actually been fine with this one, but I'm getting ready to make the time to do some upgrading (Adobe CS2 then CS3 soon afterward, and OS 10.4) to parallel upgrades I'll be making at my office (new Intel Mac on it's way). I'm guessing my home machine will start to crawl. Any advice in terms of the G5 models and buying a used Mac in general? Any models I should avoid?
All advice greatly appreciated.

Yes, of course any Mac Pro would be better than a G5 (the only one I see is a $3300 Quad, by the way -- are we on the same site?), but the idea was to find a $1000 solution to tide me over until I can really invest in a new system. And since I'm coming frm a 450MHz G4, which again has been just fine for me (running CS1 and 10.3.9), I would assume that any G5 would be a big improvement and there do seem to be good options to look into. On the other hand, I've seen such a variety of responses to this idea that I'm still not sure which direction to go at this point. Clearly I'll need to do something soon, but I'm not a speed freak nor do I need the coolest system on the block. I don't play video games, and I won't be using this machine for video. I just want something that runs 10.4, CS2, and CS3 easily, and isn't going to wake the neighbors when the drives spin up or leak coolant all over the place.
That said, I've hit upon another possible solution: FastMac's Dual 1.4 GHz Upgrade for PowerMac G4 AGP. Anyone have opinions about this upgrade as an option? And thank you all for providing input. This is really stressing me out, but your opinions do help.

HELP WANTED: I wanna buy an Android Tablet, but IDK which one to buy...

So I am expecting my tax refund in a week or 2 & I wanna buy an Android Tablet, but I am kinda computer/tablet stupid & I have no clue which one to pick... Specific things I want in an Android Tablet include the following: Android 2.3 or newer, touch screen, Micro SD card slot & good battery life are all my must haves!!! Additionally, if possible, I would prefer a White Android Tablet over a Black Android Tablet!!! I am a T-Mobile employee, I work @ their customer service center/inbound call center in Portland, Oregon. My expertise is cell phone activations, new customer activations/sales/upgrades, tech support & billing. I am very unknowledgeable when it comes to the iPad & Android Tablets. If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated!!! Feel free to email me personally at {removed per forum guidelines}!!! Thanks so much:-)
Solved!

I'm partial to Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1 - Although it is getting a bit dated at this point. It's very well built, and is one of the thinnest and lightest of the Honeycomb tablets. It does not have a MicroSD slot, but there's a USB host adapter available for $20 - I just copy media from a thumb drive using that when I need to.
The Toshiba Thrive is way too thick and heavy.
The Asus Transformer Prime seems to have a lot of quality control issues, in addition to availability issues. I think that Asus screwed up when they gave it a metal body - it has had a severe negative impact on wifi and GPS performance. If you want a quad-core Tegra3-based tablet - wait for someone else to release one.
Nowadays you actually have quite a few choices - 10.1" tablets were the standard for Android tablets, but some people are willing to sacrifice usability a little in order for the improved portability of a 7" tablet, or Samsung's Galaxy Tab 8.9, which is in between the 7" and 10.1" tablets in size.

Which One Would You Buy?

Hello to All - My brother already has a 240GB Crucial M500 installed in one laptop, and now he wants to buy a new Crucial SSD around 250GB in size for another machine. He wanted to buy another M500, but they're no longer available, and he isn't too sure which one to choose from the current models. Given the choice, and regardless of price, would you choose the BX100, the MX100, or the MX200?

Thanks for your quick responses, and the link to the article on anandtech.com in particular. ***Edited to remove Crucial competitor***

I'm desperately needing advice to a common question. I use Quicken and love it. But the Mac version is not as great as the PC.   Has anyone installed it by segmenting their Mac with Parallels or Fusion or Boot camp. If so, which one do you recommend.

I'm desperately needing advice. New Mac.   Used Quicken on my PC. Researched all software for Financial programs and Quicken is still the most recommended.   I want to use Quicken on my Mac. The Mac version is not highly rated so I would need to partition my Mac.   Has anyone done this for their quicken program and if so, which partitioning program did you use - Parallels, Fusion ware or Boot camp?
Thx

Virtual Box is safe and well developed, it offers similar or identical features to the paid competition, it may be a little less polished but that's all.
Download and try it out, nothing to lose (except time).

Hi, I'd like to buy a 13 inch macbook air. My biggest concern is to get one that doesn't have high EMFs to it and that has low heat. Which one would you suggest? The older 2010, or the 2011 with the i5 chip or the newest with the i7 chip?

Hi, I would like to buy my first laptop computer, the 13 inch macbook air.
My biggest concerns are:
1. Which has the least amount of EMFs? I'm sensitive to that and have enjoyed my iPad (original) that has no EMF fields.
2. Which runs the coolest?
I want the 128 gig one. Which would fit my requirments, the 2010 with the 2 Core Duo, the 2011 I believe it is with the i5 chip, or the newest one with the i7 chip? From the reviews I have read, it sounds like the one with the i7 chip runs the hottest.
I'm sure I am missing a whole lot of information, please fill me in!
Thanks,
Martha

Changing the 13 inch screen resolution will unfortunately result in a less sharp display, simply because all these type of displays have an 'native' resolution which gives optimal results, leaving other settings less crisp. The 13 inch MBA panel has a native resolution of 1440x900, which is remarkable for a screen of that size (I have 17 inch widescreen monitors at work with that same resolution) but it can certainly be set at a lower figure.
The one area where the trackpad has benefits over a mouse is that you can use multi-touch gestures, just as on the iPad. That's a feature I really like, particularly being able to zoom in and out and scroll up and down, though of course other gestures are supported too. As such then it does indeed work much like the touch screen capaibilities of an iPad.
If you have a Mighty Mouse the one with the tiny scroll-ball on the top-front, then they are notorious for scrolling issues due to getting clogged up. They're not hard to clean, but the Mighty Mouse is notably inferior to the later Magic Mouse, which doesn't have a scroll-ball or wheel, but uses the whole top panel for scrolling using gestures in much the same way as a trackpad. I've found a Magic Mouse a good investment for any Bluetooth-capable Mac (which of course includes all MBA models).
[ON EDIT]: The MBA doesn't come with Flash, but it is a free download from Adobe, and is very simple to install. Just make sure you get the installer from Adobe.com and not any other location since there is some malware which masquerades as a Flash installer but is not safe to install! Beware though that Flash is very processor intensive, and if anything will run the MBA fans up to speed, and heat the system up, it is that.
Good luck with the readings!!

Going to buy some books on after effects. Which ones do you suggest?

I'll be ordering them from amazon.co.uk so the selection is slightly worse than amazon.com's
Here's whats available:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_1_13?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords =after+effects&x=0&y=0&sprefix=After+effects
Anyone have any experience with these?

>What do you guys think about buying books that are for CS4 when I have CS5?
> Big difference or barely noticable?
I say to go for it. In fact, going back to CS3 is still valuable for good tutorials and books. Further than that gets confusing.
The big changes in After Effects CS5 from CS4 were under the hood: the 64-bit port and lots of performance and memory improvements. And we added a few big things that are pretty well isolated, such as Roto Brush---which is great, but it doesn't change the way that a lot of other things are done. There weren't very many little changes, which are the things that would make using a book from a different version difficult.
Here's a complete list of changes between After Effects CS4 and After Effects CS5.

Real Quick One - Can you get Compressor without buying FCS??

Right, just a quick question - i am using FC Express HD and compressor would be a nice extra to have.
Anyway of getting hold of it without purchasing Final Cut Studio??
Thanks
Jon

Well, on the same general topic.. I have FC Studio, which includes Compressor, but I'd like to buy at least one additional Compressor so I could distribute processing across a couple of Macs on my network.
Seems like a sensible thing for Apple to offer, at least for registered owners of FC Studio.

Why did you get rid of the buy all button?

Getting rid of the buy all button forces me to shop elsewhere!

I will use Barclays Card for 18 month free interest.
I wil ask Apple clerk to avoid LG monitor.
I will buy those in Apple store.
Which one will you recommend?

Tha's something you need to decide for yourself.
Do you think you need 16GB of memory or 8 will be enough?
Do you need to carry your macbook around with you more often? if so just get the 13" it's easier to carry.
Or maybe you enjoy watching media on a bigger screen?
As for word processing it shouldn't be a problem on both notebooks.
Also can you afford buying the 15"?
And what about the hard drive capacity?
So my advice is to consider these aspects, make a list of pros and cons and see what you come up with
