    How can I replace the out of the box photos with my own when music is playing?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Select any photos you want to share with the Apple TV using the iTunes advanced menu (using iPhoto is the better option but a folder will work). Once all the photos you want are shared, go to settings > screensaver on the Apple TV and choose which of those shared photos you want to use with your screensaver.

    Can I replace the airport extreme card (Wireless G) to the new N card that come in the new MBP?

    Yes. It has been done. I have heard that the wireless n card for the mac pro will fit the macbook pro. I haven't done it yet though...I'm undecided about whether to update my laptop so i'm going to wait a while before i void my warranty.
    An apple dealer have offered to perform the installation but can't guarantee it will work, and say it will void my warranty but that's up in a month anyway... I'll let you know if i do it.

  • Can you replace the top part of your macbook pro?

    My macbook pro has some scratches and a small dent on the top and was wondering if you are able to replace this? If not, what are other options?

    Yes, the display assembly can be replaced for anywhere from a few hundred to more than a thousand dollars, depending on model. Under no circumstances is this a sensible, worthwhile investment if the only reason for doing it is minor cosmetic damage.

  • Can I replace the RAM chips in my MacBook Air (11 inch 2011)

    I'd like to increase the RAM in my MacBook Air.  Is this possible?  I see no information from Apple about how to do this relatively simple thing.

    The memory in the MacBook Air is soldered to the logic board and cannot be replaced.  Only in the MacBook Pro of that year was it possible to replace/upgrade memory since the memory chips were on removable modules.

  • Can I replace the screen myself with a kit on my iPod touch?

    Can I replace the screen myself with a kit on my iPod touch?   Stores are charging in excess of 100 dollars to fix them.

    Note, though, that if you do the repair yourself or have any unauthorized shop do it, you will void any further support from Apple, including having them replace the iPod for their out-of-warranty replacement fee.
    Regards.

    the screen on my iphone is shattered can i replace the screen?

    Who can say?  How competent are you with electronic devices?  You might be better off taking it to an Apple Store and paying for an out of warranty replacement. At least you'll know you are not using generic components that have not been approved by Apple.

    You've been down this path before  - and the response is exactly the same.
    how to replace cursor logic
    And I'll suggest that you post the entire code - since you repeatedly delete 2 table variables but only populate one. The setting of @maxID also seems to have no purpose. And perhaps the issue here isn't the cursor but the general approach.  Who knows
    - but it appears you may have prematurely assumed that the cursor is the problem.
