Can I add a sub woofer to my dv7-1245dx if it didn't come with one

I know this laptop is old, about 5-6 years old or so. I have blown one of the speakers in it, and am going to replace it, even though they sound horrible when working, it's better than 1 crackling while you try to watch a movie or something. Since I have to rip the laptop apart for this and another reason, I looked up the woofer that I know was an option for the dv7's, and I have found some I can buy. I am wondering though, since mine didn't come with one, is it just a matter of adding the woofer, or maybe there is no connection to hook it up? Doesn't make much sense to buy one if there is no connector to hook it up to. I know I have room for it, there is a round plastic spacer/cup thing on the bottom of the laptop where the speaker should be pointing out, I just don't know (yet) if there will be a connection for it on my motherboard.

  • Can anyone help.  For security reasons I reset my admin password on my Macbook Pro a few days ago and didn't write it down.  Now I've forgotten it.  I didnt receive an installation disc when I purchased my Macbook Pro online - it didn't come with one-help

    Please see question above, but also note, I have the Applecare Protection Plan but am unable to get through to anyone on a weekend and I desperately need to use my laptop this weekend.  I can't log in at all now as I've forgotten my admin password.  A few weeks ago I also changed the password on my husband's new MacBook Pro and again forgot the password.  I spoke to someone at Apple and they helped me to reset it within minutes, by restarting the computer holding Command+something else (I can't remember what it was). A black screen with writing came up and I had to type in something like "password" (not sure exactly).  Anyway, this was a very quick and efficient process but I didn't write it down unfortunately.  Does anyone out there know what to do?  Thanks in anticipation

    If it originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, click here, phone Apple, and order a replacement.
    If it originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.7 or newer, restart it with the Option, Command, and R keys held down.

    Do I have to have iTunes on my PC in order to update my iPhone. I'd rather not have my computer linked with my iPad and phone. I'd like to just keep it between iPad and iPhone. I don't have a computer of my own.

  • My phone didn't come with the preset playlists. All my friends and my sister have them. Like, "top 25 in your library" "recently added" "recently played". Is there any way I can get these?

    My phone didn't come with the preset playlists. All my friends and my sister have them. Like, "top 25 in your library" "recently added" "recently played". Is there any way I can get these?

    Those playlists are "Smart playlists".
    I don't think that you can create them from the phone itself. I've only ever been able to create a smart playlist within iTunes and then syncing the phone.

  • Can I add a Solid State Hard Drive to a iMac 27' 2.7 if it did not already come with one?

    I am thing about purchasing a brand new Imac 27" 2.7. I do not want to spend the money now to have Apple add one at time of build but may want to add one down the road...is this possible? Can I bring it back to Apple after the fact and have a SSD added???? Please help as this will affect my purchase decsion.

    Apple will not do it for you however you may find AASP's that will. However remember these are not intended to  be upgraded as you are suggesting. First aftermarket SSD's will not work correctly and may overheat the machine, next this may would void the warranty. I would recommend reading the warranty. There are those that will argue with me on this point however I like to error on the side or caution. If the warranty is of no value to you and you just want to save a few bucks you can ask a AASP to do it.
    Another avenue to take and the one I'd recommend is buying a refurbished machine from Apple, they come with the same warranty as a new machine and some do have SSDs.  You don't state where you are from but look at the online store for your country and you should find a section for iMac refurbs. There are many advantages to buying refurbs including saving money, getting a machine more thoroughly tested than new, warranty coverage and eligibility for AppleCare. In addition most people cannot tell a refurb from a new machine, the only difference to most is the box it ships in. One has colorful graphics the other is the same box and packaging sans graphics.  The only downside I can really think of is you may not get the exact configuration you want. Most machines I've seen only have the SSD in them, I haven't seen any with SSD and HD in the refurb section. Not a big deal, just buy FW800 or Thunderbolt EHD and you have a nice solution. Others assume the machine was refurbished because it was flawed in some fashion, that isn't necessarily the case and if it was it was fixed and retested. Machines enter the refurb program for a variety of reasons, last years model, wife makes a husband return an expensive toy, changed his mind and bought a MacBook Pro instead etc.....
    If you really want a new one with an SSD I'd just save a few more bucks and get what you want.

  • I can't add a title to a movie imported from my camera! how come?

    This is really frustrating because I have one clip (an entirely different one than the one I want to add a title to) that is "accepting" a title. but the one I imported from my camera (a testimonial from a client) just wont work. nothing happens when I drag and try to drop a title. with the other one, it turns blue and it's clear I can drop a title. I was able to edit my video and remove some clips.
    this has happened before. i need to understand why it happens so 1. i can avoid it in the future and 2. stop wasting so much time messing around with this critcal but SMALL piece.
    please help!
    Fareen

    ill try to help...
    forgive me i'm no tech. much like pictures cant be edited retitled etc, once uploaded from camera roll. (they can be in camera roll) I think you can do it on the computer after the fact.
    as for where to find the video that depends on the computer. I dont know on a mac but windows based you find the file in your library right click and select rename.
    hope that helps

  • How can i stretch pictures in picture library webpart and remove the home tab that comes with the site

    Hello people
    how can i stretch images to fit into my picture library webpart?
    also how can i remove the Home tab that comes with change the look.

    Hi,
    Let’s verify the following:
    Whether you use the picture  library web part or Image Viewer web part or Picture Library Slideshow Web Part.
    I think you should custom the web part to stretch images to fit into your web part. There is no OOTB method to achieve it.
    Whether the home tab is your library name.
    To remove the Home tab, edit the web part->Appearance->”Chrome” choose none.
