Buying new tv

Should I buy a 1080 or a 720 and does FIOS or any of the broadcasters broadcast in 1080?

in short, get a 1080i tv. 
you'll thank yourself later.
Haven't seen a 1080i set for years now - flat panels don't ypically run in interlace mode which is mostly a CRT display method.  Most sets 32" or under are 720p and above 32" are 1080p (I know - a generalization, for which I'm sure some will find exceptions).
The choice between 1080p and 720p really depends on screen size and viewing distance.  Smaller screen at greater distance, and the eye can't tell the difference.

  • How can i buy new battery for my macBook pro in France

    Hello,
    Please, someone can tell me how to find and buy new battery for my 2008 macBook pro in France ?
    This one is very old, i already changed this battery one time, i think Apple store of town won't be ok to make the work cause i have made it myself one time before (it has fallen several times, almost broken, means impossible to shut the battery place but still working on). So i bought a battery to a third provider, wich doesn't work of course, try to ask to online assistance but i have to pay 30 € just to ask my question and i doesn't want...
    SO WHAT IS THE SOLUTION TO CHANGE MY BATTERY ??? HELP !!!
    I bought it in 2008. I don't know exactly the serie. Just know it's a 2,4 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo.
    The reference of battery is A1281 10,8V 50 Wh. Can't find it on the store. The only one i found was on a website who didn't tell it's was a fake... 
    Lost 85 €

    Here are the International Apple support telephone numbers:

    I note Egypt is not listed.
    Purchasing a battery from a third party vendor is a high risk proposition.  Many such batteries have been found to be substandard. 
    I suggest that you try and contact Apple and see if you can have one shipped to you.
    Ciao.

  • What happened to the nifty "sync" button in iTunes? It syncs as soon as I plug it in, and that's great! BUT! When I go to the iTunes Store and buy new stuff, I can't just 'sync' the device again so my new stuff gets added. Why?

    Nothing happened to it.
    It is still there.  Maybe it says apply now, not sure, but it is still there.

    goodnight. as you know apple has evolved considerably until today but there are people who do not have ability to buy new products. in my case I would like to know why the apple do not let the iphone 3g update to iOS 4.3 as are several applications that can not put on my iphone 3g due to this reason. Why does not Apple make a repository with applications for ios 4.2.1? or else do not work in an update to ios 4.3 on iphone 3g?

    This has nothing to do with Apple, as Apple does not make the apps.
    This is the decision of the app maker.
    Contact those app makers and ask them why they do this.

  • Upgrade mac pro or buy new imac

    Really need some help here.  My base machine is a quad-core Nehalem Mac Pro running at 3.33 with 8Gb of RAM and using a ATI Radeon HD 5870 video card.  My choices are:
       Buy a new iMac 3.4 Ghz quad core i7, 16 Gb RAM, nVidia GTX 680MX, 750 Gb SSD drive (about $3500)
    OR
      Buy 16 Gb RAM, nVidia GTX 680 (about 900 dollars)
    Is there much of a performance differece between the 2 to justify the difference in cost?

    The Mac Pro you own has way more headroom to upgrade for short money.
    The 2009 and later can upgrade RAM DIMM modules by the each -- don't buy new memory modules for these Macs smaller than 8GB per module (cheaper than two 4GB). These are as cheap as US$70 + shipping from Mac-Centric vendors such as Data Memory Systems:

  • G4 400: Upgrade or Buy New?

    Hi Everyone,
    This is my first post after lurking in the shadows for a while. As you can probably guess I have a G4 400 that I've owned from new. It's getting slow(er) and I'm thinking of upgrading/buying new. I fancy a new Intel iMac but my budget can't stretch to it. Also the lack of CS in Universal is a MAJOR factor. I mainly use the Mac for general browsing etc and CS for Photoshop and graphic design. It's not a work machine so speed is not so important.
    I was thinking of buying a G4 Macmini as a stop gap until I can afford the Intel iMac. Would this be better than upgrading the G4 400? See below.
    On the upgrade path I was looking at: More RAM, CPU upgrade to 1.4MHz, bigger harddrive (I already have a 2nd 40GB drive).
    What graphics card can I upgrade to? I'd like to be able to run a 2nd monitor if possible.
    Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Steve

    Hi i've just upgraded my Sawooth G4 to 1.4Gh Sonnet. It flies now! There used to be long waiting times in between rendering in Photoshop (but i'm used to it, then), but now, the spinning beach ball rarely make an appearance.
    I was like you a few months back, and lots of people/friends adviced me to get a Mini instead. I'm glad i sticked with my G4 and upgraded parts, one at a time. I'm a Graphic Designer too. Though i'm using Photoshop 7, Illustator 10, Freehand MX, etc... Basically older versions.
    Next up for me will be a Pioneer 110D, and i'm looking for ATI 8500 or 9000 through ebay. And maybe, just maybe a SATA card and HD.

  • Before upgrading my system from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion I had taken a backup of iPhoto in my external drive. But now when I try to open that package, I'm directed to app store to buy new iPhoto. How can I retrieve my photos without buying iPhoto?

    Before upgrading my system from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion I had taken a backup of iPhoto library in my external drive. But now when I try to open that package, I'm directed to app store to buy new iPhoto. Why would apple install iPhoto by default with Snow Leapord and make us import all our photos in it at the first place, and now ask for money if we want to retrieve our photos back on mountain lion? What if they make contacts a paid app with the next OS upgrade, and then bully us to pay money if we want our contacts? This is something very dissappointing on Apple's part. I need answers here.

    I fail to remember if the installer gave me an option to keep my applications.
    The Mountain Lion installer will not delete applications. It will only mark applications, that are not compatible with your current system with a "forbidden" sign in the icon. And you cannot launch them.
    Does your iPhoto icon in the Applications folder look like this?
    Then your iPhoto version is incompatible and cannot run with Mt. Lion. If it is iPhoto '11, with a versionnumber starting with 9.x.x., you can upgrade it by downloading a newer version from the Apple downloads site  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1650.
    But if you have 8.x.x, you need to buy an upgrade.

  • How can I actually talk to a real human being who is willing to listen to my issue instead of trying to tell me I need to update all three of my phones or buy new ones?

    I was a perfectly happy verizon customer for the past twenty years or so, including the wireless phone service at my home where I have lived for the past 14 years. Several months ago the service at my home just went to crap. We can no longer use our phones inside our home at all, we have to go outside to make or receive calls and even then they constantly drop. Incoming calls to our phones roll straight to voice mail and the phones never ring. Even when we do go outside to talk, we get one or occasionally two bars, but the signal is mostly one bar or none. We used to get awesome reception for many years.  It is not our phones, my daughter cannot use her verizon phone at our house, my mother cannot use her verizon phone at our house, my sister cannot use her verizon phone at our house (she works for Verizon, Hawaii). I have tried for months now to get past the basic "you need to update your phone software", "you need to go to a store to have your phone checked", and "you need to buy new phones".
    I would like to also add that we live in a rural area with no recent construction or anything else that might cause interference. We do not have any problems with our phones if we drive a mile down the road toward local tower. Something has happened that reduced the service at our home. I am now patiently waiting for my contract to end so that we can move to T-mobile or ATT, both of which which pick up very well in our home, unless someone has a solution to our problem that is not one of the three already mentioned above.

    I understand the importance of ensuring you have reliable service at all times Big_Bubba. Allow us to get to the bottom of your signal concerns. Unfortunately, with any carrier we can not guarantee signal inside a home, building, etc. due to home infrastructure. However, we do offer an accessory that may help boost signal in and around your home. For further information regarding our Network Extender click, http://vz.to/1vV6qON

  • I can't backup my iPhone 5. It says I don't have enough storage. So I've deleted like 6-7 apps and its still says I don't have enough storage. And it also says the say thing when I want to buy new apps or music. What can I do?

    I can't backup my iPhone 5. It says I don't have enough storage. So I've deleted like 6-7 apps and its still says I don't have enough storage. And it also says the same thing when I want to buy new apps or music. Also my messages won't send; I have to turn my phone off and resend then just to they can send. I can't even take any pictures because it says I have no storage.(I currently have 1,658 photos and 72 videos by the way.) What can I do? I just my phone in late December. I didn't think it would act up this bad before I even had it for a year. Please help.

    Your phone needs more storage, buying storage on iCloud.com doesn't change that.
    Delete some of the stuff off of your phone, it's full.

    They will only be where you put them.  They do not magically appear in new places.
    Have you copied them from your old computer to your new one?

    Perform a Reset... Try again...

    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    If you bought the iPhone from an authorized store/vendor, you should have taken the iPhone to them or any other Apple Store for evaluation under warranty.
    Once it has been opened by non-Apple entity, Apple will not do anything for this.

  • Can i trade in my old imac air when i am buying new iMac air???

    can i trade in my old imac air when i am buying new iMac air??? cause the one that i got is 11inch, but it kinds of too small..so i thinking to buy the new one..

    Apple does not accept trade ins.  But you could certainly sell your old machine.  You say "iMac Air", and there is actually no machine with that name.  So get the name right and you can hunt around for what your old machine might be worth.
