Have old Visor Handspring - Would like to get email on it

I have an old Visor Handspring that I would like to breath new life into (if possible).
Not sure of the exact Model - but it was received in 2000 (This thing has literally been sitting in the draw for
the past 8 years - had actually forgot about it for a while ....).
Before I breakdown and upgrade to a Blackberry or something, I'd like to know if there is anyway to upgrade/fix/whatever that I could make to my Visor Handspring to receive and send email.
Right now, I'm investigating a cellular modem cable.
Any advice would be appreciated.
The general consensus from my friends is "Buy a Blackberry", but I'm 'one of those people', if I have something lying around the house that may work, I'm willing to go down that avenue first, research and see if it's possible before I fork out (anymore) money to Verizon or whoever it may be this month ((LOL) - but not really).
Again, I'd appreciate any feedback!

Thanks for the information !
I like option #5: Honestly, I think it's the only option that I may have in regard to trying to breath some life into my old Visor.
Cellphone with data plan from a carrier and compatible cable to connect device and phone.
But, I guess by the time I add the expense of the data plan to my existing cell phone bill, I'll probably end up spending as much as I would have on a Blackberry or sometype of other smartphone.
Verizon's 10 megabyte data plan is 29.99 a month
Verizon's unlimited data plan is 44.99 a month
Not to mention, I don't think I'm going to have luck w/finding a compatible cable for my cellphone (I have an LG VX5200).
I clicked on the link that you provided, I didn't see my Visor, so I did an image google on Visor Handsrpings.
With that, I'm still not sure of the specific model that I have, but I was able to narrow it down to (3):
Handspring Visor
Handspring Visor Delux, and
Handspring Visor Prism
Out of the (3), I believe that it's probably #1 - Handspring Visor.
Perhaps, I should take a look at Centro ....

I would like to purchase or get imovie'11 ...I do have a nolder version 9.09 but I would like to upgrade it. Thanks.

iMovie 9 is a component of iLife 11. If you'd like iMovie 10, download it from the Mac App Store.

HT4972 It says iTunes will not back up games, apps, etc. Does that mean they will be lost? I have iPad 2, and would like to get iOS 6. Can I do that? Right now it is iOS 4. If I can get 6, do I have to go to 5 first?

I would like to upgrade my iPad to iOS 6. It is currently iOS 4.3.5. Can I do that? The article from apple says iTunes will not back up games, apps, etc. Does that mean I will lose them? Some of them I paid for and don't want to lose.

Yes you can upgrade from 4.3.3 to 6.0.
Your media - apps, games, music, photos, and so are not included in the backup. Your app data, settings, and many other things are included in the backup. After you update the iPad, you should sync with iTunes in order to put all of that content back into the iPad. This is what I recommend doing - I do it myself every time I update my iPads, or iPod Touch.
What you should do anytime that you update the device is to transfer purchases from the iPad into iTunes - File>Transfer Purchases - and you should backup the iPad as well. When you update the update the device, if something goes wrong, you can restore from the backup.
If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.
Transfer purchases.

I have a Powerbook G4 running on OSx version 10.4.11. I would like to get an iphone, but non-seem to sync with my computer. Is there any options for me?

I have a Powerbook G4 running on OSX Version 10.4.11. I currently have an Iphone 3, but it cannot sync with my computer because it reverts back to a version so old that I can't even text photos. (I have itunes 9) I would like to get a new phone because mine constantly freezes up, but I figure what's the point of getting an iphone if it won't sync with my laptop. I can't even listen to music on my iphone! Is it possible to get an Iphone 4s to sync with a G4 Powerbook?

Hello,
Sadly not as an iPhone 4 running iOS 6 or above needs Mac OS X 10.6.8 or higher to sync in iTunes.
Mac OS X 10.6 is not compatible with an PowerBook

Welcome to the Apple Community.
What do you mean by scanned, which app do you usually view them in.

Based on Skype's website, are you using a compatible headset?

I have an old iphone 4 that is broken and i would like to get it replaced. i opened the back of the phone and took it apart and now it wont turn on. would i still be able to get it replaced?

I got my phone last may and then i had another upgrade this past december. I completely broke the old iphone 4, but it has more space on it for movies and such so i would like to get it replaced. would i still be able to get it replaced even though it is broken and all the pieces were taken out of it?

No. Once you or any other unauthorized person opens/disassembles the iPhone, Apple will no longer touch it.
Regards.

I just bought a new IMac. I have photoshop elements installed on my old IMac and would like to move it to the new one. How can i do this?

I just bought a new IMac. I have photoshop elements installed on my old IMac and would like to move it to the new one. How can i do this?

Unfortunately, adobe doesn't have photoshop elements 6 available for download, as far as i know, so your best bet is to either get an usb dvd drive or use an computer with a dvd drive and copy the contents of the pse 6 dvd to somethiing like
a flash drive and then copy the contents from that drive to your new computer.
Do you still have your older mac and it has a dvd drive?
You can share files between the two using airdrop or an ethernet cable.

I'm retiring my old computer (windows xp) to a new computer (windows 7). How can i easily move my itunes music from the old computer to the new computer? i have my playlists organized in my old computer, i would like it to stay that way in my new computer

i'm retiring my old computer (with windows xp) and bought a new computer (with windows 7). How can i easily move my itunes music from the old computer to the new computer? i have my playlists organized in my old computer, i would like it to stay that way in my new computer. I also have my ipods, iphone sync'd in the old computer so i want to make sure that things won't get messed up (my apps, playlists, etc) when i move over everything to the new computer and sync all my devices with the new computer.
Thanks in advance for the tips.

Make sure the XP box is upgraded to the latest version of itunes. Also make sure it's using the itunes media folder layout as explained here, because that's what the W7 is going to be using.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3847
Install itunes on the new W7 PC.
Get these folders from the XP machine
C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes
C:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
And put them here on the W7 machine
C:\users\username\My Music\iTunes
C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

I just purchased a ipad 2 and have not sync it yet. I have an old pc and would like to move the itunes library account to a newer pc that I have. Can I move the library to the ipad and sync ipods to the ipad and/or move the library to the new pc?

Perhaps this web page will help: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1229
But I must point out that leaving the iPhoto Library on the external is worth considering. Your internal drive would be better off without having to carry the photos.
When you booted with the external connected and you were asked for the library, did you try navigating to the Library in on the external drive?

I have an iPhone and iPad. I would like to get my husband an iPhone. Are we able to sync all devices and share info with both iPhones and the iPad, using a single email address?

Thanks for that. He is one of the last holdouts in IT so an email address for him would just mean I have 2 to check so that is what I am trying to avoid as we move into retirement:)

I have a mac book pro that i bought in late 2009. My current software is snow leopard version 10.5.8. I would like to get the new lion operating system but I cant without first getting the latest version of snow leopard. it doesnt show on software updat

I have a mac book pro that i bought in late 2009. My current software is snow leopard version 10.5.8. I would like to get the new lion operating system but I cant without first getting the latest version of snow leopard. however when I go to update my software it doesnt show that any update is available.

10.5.8 is Leopard, not Snow Leopard. You need the Snow Leopard DVD;
You can get it only by phone now from Apple.
In the US, call 1-800-MY-APPLE and ask for a sales assistant. Last quoted price was $19.99 for the single-user and $29.99 for the family licence.
For other countries, check here; http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
Don't forget to ask for Sales; the tech support guys can't help.
If you want Lion, rather than Mountain Lion, the same Sales team can give you a download code to use at the Mac AppStore.
To get the App Store, you need to update your new Snow Leopard from 10.6.3 (which is the version on the installer) to 10.6.8 with the combo update; http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Be warned that the upgrades will render a lot of older software unusable, and will need new drivers for printers and scanners in all likelihood.

I have a 2 inch gray bar across the top of my home page now after dragging a few windows around my desk top. I'm not sure if it's a mozilla thing or google thing but it just appeared and I would like to get rid of it. g

My home page is just www.google.com with a search box and a picture of some planets as a background from my computer. While I was dragging the restored down browser window, I slipped with my mouse and now I have a light gray two inch bar across the top of my background picture. It's below the; Search-Images-YouTube-News-Gmail-More icons. When I right click on it and select inspect Element (Q) it says div#gbx1.gbqfh in three different colors. I would like to get rid of it, but I don't know if it's a google or Mozilla issue. I know google has been changing things so it wouldn't surprise me if it was just a coincidence.

Is there any text in that gray bar?
I see some buttons on it, do they have a tooltip?

Hi, My name is Bheki Yende
I'm experiencing a problem with an app I've just purchased from iTunes, I have tried every piece of advice from the "iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store" and still nothing is working. I would like to get my refund on this pls.
This is an inconvenience, I don't understand why I have to contact the developer for a faulty product in your store.
I've paid iTunes to get this, so iTunes must fix this problem for me or give my money back.
Thanks

This is a user forum, you are not speaking to Apple here.
You will need to contact iTunes support here, regarding this issue. They will usually respond within 24 hours.
